#Conrad Town, Adventurer Guild Office’
 
“The biggest spoil is this 4 core stone. Added with the halved one, it all in all becomes 100.”
In front of Kazane and Yumika, is the guild receptionist Pran Prout who appraising the materials they brought.
“You guys sure do earn a lot.”
“Ahahahaha.”
Hearing half-amazed words from Pran, Yumika answers with a laugh. Their current income is vast if compared to before, where Yumika earned money by helping out at Rinrie’s Inn. It even made Yumika think ‘Is this really alright?’.
“The other materials and subjugations reward are in total, 2220 kirigia. You guys always earn the most here.”
“Yesterday’s hard work only earned us 242 kirigia. It seems hunting core stones is the most effective way.”
Hearing Kazane’s words, Pran let out a surprised laugh.
“To be able earn 200 kirigia a day is good enough. If you hunt the grey golems, it’s very hard to get the core stones intact and golems are hard. They would often destroy the weapons and then you ought to slowly leave with only scraps.”
“Ah, that’s true.”
Yumika’s spear edge has been chipped many times. Even though Kazane’s golem is the one holding them down, Yumika still needs to restrain or distract them, sometimes she also worries about exhausting her spear.
“And also, this is advice from myself, it is better not to tell anyone in the bar that you earn this much of money.”
“Ah, yes.”
“Since we also treasure our lives, you don’t have to worry, Ms. Pran.”
Yumika who doesn’t understand the hidden warning in Pran’s words, nods while inclining her head, but Kazane who understands what she meant gives her consent.
 
“Then, let’s go get something to eat Yumika.”
“Ah, yes. Ermm, Kazane.”After exiting the guild office Yumika faces Kazane with difficult expression.
“What’s that about treasuring our lives stuff you said before?”\n
Hearing that, Kazane stared at her blankly and groaned. She then said,
“Let’s talk about it during meal.”
 
‘â˜șSandona eatery’
“To be blunt,in order to bring an intact core stone with only my skill is a problem.”
Today, Kazane’s lunch at ‘Sandona eatery’ is manila clam spaghetti. She answers Yumika’s question from before, while grumbling away about why they didn’t take off its shell.
“What you mean with problem, is it because it’s a skill only you can use and so it seems like cheating?”
“Yup. Something like that. Since it’s easy they want to do it themselves. If there’s a method to get profit, humans are creatures who would want to get the method. In this case the method is me and you.”
“Me too?”
Yumika ask in return with a look of surprise.
“If Yumika is taken hostage, I would have no choice but to obey
something like that?”“But isn’t it a crime?”“That’s right. But we’re adventurer you see.”
Kazane points the fork in her hand at Yumika.
“After dozens of core stones flow to the market, even if there’s a group of two new adventurers discovered after they get eaten by raider dog, none will suspect it’s a crime.”
“Ugh
 true.”
“Well it’s still a possibility and it’s not only guild people. We don’t know if someone, somewhere here, gets drawn by get rich quick talks. Since this town also has slave firm and underground people. It’s better not to invite the least danger possible. Ms. Pran was worried about it.”
After saying that, Kazane brought the pasta in her mouth with a slurping sound.
“Life is trivial here
”
“Well, it’s this kind of world you see here. That can’t be helped.”
“By the way, I want to change the topic.”
After finishing her spaghetti, Kazane opens her mouth.
“I want to take a rest from work, for today and tomorrow.”“Ah, I see.”“I’m thinking of learning magic today onwards, what about you, Yumika?”
“Magic? You mean, whether I want to learn it or not?”“Well, it’s convenient but If you want to be warrior then it’s better to not learn it. There’s a minus correction if you learn magic.”\n“Seriously?”Yumika had never heard about it.
“Yep. Though I don’t know about this world.”
“Is that so
”“Then it’s simple, do you want to go together?”
“Ermm. Sorry, today I have a promise to practice with Master.”
“I see. Then I will go alone. I’ll back at the inn in the evening.”“Gotcha. Be careful.”
***
Magic.
A power to create wonders by consuming magic power. Originating from the 8 factors, it has 8 systems and each system has branches. (ED: Branches are like paths, not tree branches)
Kazane heard that in this town, there is a magic research institute study on the fire factor and life factor. Typical fire attack and healing system.
 
‘â˜șConrad town Magic learning institute’
“Good afternoon.”
After opening the door, Kazane enters the magic research institute.
(Their clothes are still the same as 1000 years ago, in the game)
An auntie appeared from inner part of reception, while kazane was thinking ‘perhaps this building has quite history’.
“Oh my! What a small guest we have here.”
(Again with this child-like treatment
ugh)
It has become the usual occurrences.
“Welcome to ‘Conrad Magic Research Institute’. What business do you have here?”
The next one making an appearance was a plump auntie.
(Do women around here grow fatter after passing the middle age
?)
While remembering Rinrie‘s figure, Kazane tells her business.
“I want to buy a grimoire, does this place sell it?”
“Yes, we do.”\n\nThe auntie warned Kazane. That’s because there’re many people who have complained. They complained mostly about how it was a defective product when they were unable to learn magic from the grimoire. Though she is actually afraid that Kazane’s parents would come storming in and yell, 1300 is a sum that she can’t lose, that’s why she gave her a warning while closing her eyes toward the other matters.
“Yes. It’s not a problem.”
Of course, Kazane understood well how grimoire works. She had also verified herself with the automatic learned magic [[Fly]]. She should be able to learn till the second chapter regardless of its affinity with 24 wisdoms.
“Then I will take the grimoires and key to the practice field, please wait a moment.”
The auntie enters the inner part of the building after saying that.

Kazane    : My level didn’t change, but Yumika’s leveled up, right?
Yumika    : Now I’m level 13. I also learned the skill: rush.
Kazane    : I see
Yumika    : That said, thrusting continuously without using the skill command is fine too.
Kazane    : Well, normally a skill is not something that you used since you learned it, but something you learned so you can use it.
Yumika    : Yup. Unexpectedly it seems that this place has become discussions about the foundation of the window system.
Kazane    : Is that so?
