Chapter 102.2. I’m An Apprentice Adventurer
Naturally, the level is high because they’re wearing magic armor, but still, the difference is terrible. While they’re muscular men, we’re just small girls. I’m reminded once again that the power of magic is the foundation of this world.
[Teijo Mashiro: Level 40]
I also analyze Teijo Mashiro. Even though he wasn’t wearing her magic armor, he was strong. He notices Miu’s gaze and smiles at her. I’m sure he’s from the Magic Tower.
Dreaming of success, he walks among the people wearing old equipment with no [Magic Barrier]. We stand out like crazy. We’re wearing leotard-like magic armor, and all the guards are also wearing magic armor, albeit mass-produced ones. We can wear robes on top, right?
No one talks to a group of people wearing leotard-like magical armor. No, because a group of people wearing magic armor is nobles. Everyone just looks at us from a distance. Some might have thought it might be Count Takano, but the young girl from the other day didn’t seem to be there today, so no one came to check.
So Miu and the others could reach the electronic board and see the request. We could have used the terminal provided, but it was a matter of mood.
“Okay then, everyone! I’ll take care of the requests!”
I turned my chest away and sniffed with a hunch. Miu, who looks like a little gray-haired animal, is very confident. I’ve played the game long enough. So leave it to me. I’ll do the quests with the highest efficiency.
“I’ll leave it all to you, Mii-sama.”
“I’ll leave it to you, Em-chan!”
Yamiyo and the others allow me to do this, so I quickly check it out. First up is the letter delivery. If we clear it, we get an experience bonus and a low-grade strengthening stone. We get three of these, and the other two are simple quests to collect herbs that grow on the roadside. During the letter delivery, we can kill the small fry poyopoyos and increase my proficiency level.
That way, we can easily accumulate experience and enhancement stones in the beginning, and we can also save up a good amount of money in a short period. I take the battle quests after I’ve bought all the iron equipment I can with the money I’ve saved, and after I’ve strengthened the armor I’ve bought to the max with the low-level strengthening stones.
That route is the most efficient way to level up. We can earn money at the backstreet taverns by playing hanafuda or chinchillo, but I’d do that because it’s real, and there’s no loading.
Hmmm, perfect. Once we’re a little stronger, we can buy trading goods and earn money as we move around town. I can also kill some affordable bandits and monsters, and I could increase my range of movement on the map.
I’m going to show you the genius of Takano Miu.
Miu, completely game-brained in front of the request board, searches for quests as if stuck to an electronic board. Her tiny body wanders around like a little rabbit. After a while, everyone looked at me with warm eyes.
“What? There’s no letter delivery quest?”
There’s no quest to run around town. No?
“Um, …… Mii-sama? Isn’t delivery a job for the post office?”
“……… I see. That was a blind spot!”
Oh, so that’s what happens in real life? Surprise, surprise. Yes, even in the game, that job was strange when I think about it. It was an easy quest, but the rewards were too good.
It’s just realistic.
[Here’s the letter of the flour deal. Make sure you deliver it right.]
[Leave it to me. I’ll make sure the cops don’t find it.]
Maybe the pattern will be. Heh heh, so the common game quest was not realistic?
“There’s no medicinal herb collection you can pick on the roadside, right?”
“Em-chan. I don’t care if it’s in an abandoned area. The only thing that grows on the roadside is dandelions~, fluffy~. It’s not that easy~.”
Tamamo flaps her hands and flutters her wings. Seriously. No game-like strategy to power up? Oh well, this is reality. I thought there were normal quests here.
Then let’s go for a miracle and look for the stump. Maybe a little girl, not a rabbit, will bring us a new quest.
Scurry around and look for the little girl. Are there any little girls in trouble? It could be an old lady who is about to collapse or a hungry boy.
Please give me something to quest for.
But even though I looked around with my eyes as if they were saucers, there didn’t seem to be anyone in need. It could have been anyone who was injured, but strangely enough, there was no one. Adventurers in this area must be tough. No, they had healed yesterday.
The only thing I can say is that marathon running is forbidden. By the way, a marathon is a game term for a quest that players can take repeatedly and is called a marathon because it is completed by repeating the quest like a marathon.
“I think I’ll just kill this coconut crab.”
Dismayed, I flicked through the defeat quests on the board.
[Resident quest: exterminate coconut crabs. 200 yen per crab fruit. 400 yen per crab intact]
I pick something extremely realistic but a little more interesting.
“Oh! I heard that coconut crab coconuts are very sweet!”
“What does it mean to defeat a crab unharmed?”
“It’s a sea dungeon. I’m looking forward to it!”
“Do you want to bring a floatation ring?”
“I’ll bring a cup of udon.”
Tamamo pins up her fox ears and spins around, and Yamiyo tells us how to defeat the crabs. Hoku and the others seem to be enjoying each other’s company. Thank goodness, it looks like this quest is going to be okay.
I heard that the environment inside the sea dungeon is always summer, so let’s open the sea one step earlier.
By the way, is coconut crab a coconut crab? Or is it a palm? Are they also crabs?
