Reincarnated Young Lady Aims to Be an Adventurer Chapter 3 Part 45
Introducing to Trundle Guild
ăŒ
Knights school life is sailing smoothly⊠Iâm still not fully used to it, but Iâm getting more and more comfortable with it. So I will now resume my cash doubling plan!
Destinationâ Trundle Guild! Me, Lu and a newcomer!
âExcuse me! Coming through!â
âF-for real? E-excuse meâŠâŠ hiii.â
As soon as I opened the door, I could see the savage looks on the tavernâs uncles. Hmm? Is everyone earning badly today?
âSerafi, who is he?â
âYeah, a friend at school.â
-zawazawa-!
âYoung Ladyâs⊠friend?â
âYes. Go on.â
âN-nice to meet you! I, my name is Nicholas! I have come to register at the guild.â
Nick bowed with a -pekori-.
Gil-san glances at Nick. Incredible! He only has one eye, but itâs equal to the intimidation from 100 people.
âYou⊠So you are Serafiâs friend?â
âHii! Yes, I am her friend!â
âAnd nothing more, nothing less.â
âI-I swear, not more, not less!â
Oh, the air suddenly got warm.
Lara-san claps her hands.
âNow now, welcome to Trundle Guild. Since Serafiona-chan herself introduced you, I look forward to it! Welcome! Serafiona-chan, no more talking about him since itâs against the rules! Yes, boyfriend, letâs go to the back dojo!â
âBoyfriend!?â
That addition awfully stood out.
âAh, I just said it for the sake of convenience. Donât be so awkward. Matt, Guild Master, and two more people! Serafiona-chan is acquainted with him so you should wait here. Ah, Guild Master! A promising rookie is here!â
ăItâs as noisy as ever.ă
âArenât everyone just drunk?â
ăŒ
Nick has a swollen face, but he got a D-rank, steel plate. Trundleâs D-rank is equivalent to C-rank in other places. He will be a person with considerable influence now. The area around his eyes is swollen, so itâs hard to tell, but his eyes are sparkling. Good good.
âNick, what weapon did you use?â
âI only have this weapon.â
The one he showed me is the one-handed sword he fought me with during the entrance exam. More than a year has passed since then, and itâs getting more and more tattered. But⊠Itâs Nickâs partner. I canât so lightly tell him to buy a new one. However, his D-rank is unfitting of that sword. How should I go about it? HmmâŠ
âYou, I love your guts!â
Mohawk-Matt-kun laughs vigorously. Did Nick desperately clung against him? With that sword no less.
ăCertainly, Nickâs way of fighting feels good.ă
Lu squints with a smile.
First of all, letâs celebrate this auspicious occasion! I want to toss his body in the air!
-yoisho-!
I lifted Nick who seemed to be in a half-drunk state, and ran towards the request board with him in tow.
ââŠâŠWhat are you doing?â
âAs a form of celebration from me. Iâll go with you. If youâre with me, you can take the B and C-ranked requests. Isnât that great?â
âNo⊠Iâm, Iâll refrain from it todayâŠâ
âNo wayâ! Thatâs isnât Nick-like at all!â
I slam my hand on Nickâs back. Oh, why isnât he getting up?
Stand up! Stand up, Nick!
âOi⊠Youâre going to refuse even though a Lady has invited you?â
âIâm, Iâm goingâŠâ
âThen, letâs go to a junk bear subjugation!â
âJ-junk Bearâ!!??â
We borrowed horses from the school and rode this far already, and we dived deep into Trundle Forest.
âYou know what, Trundle can only hunt wild animals for sustenance of life and ecological conservation. And this time, itâs for the latter. A stray junk bear entered Trundle Forest and preyed on the rabbits and deers.â
âSerafi⊠Canât it not be today?â
âWell, you got a point. But the earlier it is dealt with, the lesser the damage, right?â
âHaaa.â
âOh, I found a footprint! This area is⊠Wait a minute.â
-pyuut-!
I make a swift whistle.
A few seconds later, the white silver snake⊠Now nearly one meter in size⊠Miyu-tan appeared.
âS-snake!â
âYohoo! Miyu-tan. Where is the junk bear?â
ăLu-sama, itâs been a long time. Sera-chama, itâs towards the south, about 5 minutes walk from here. Incidentally, it is making sports of a weasel right now. You can leave the horses here.ă
âThank you! This is a souvenir. Eat with the Little Dragon.â
ăThank you, Sera-chama. Please call me anytime! Lu-sama, please take care!ă
ăUmuă
I hung the wrapped strawberry tart, Miyu-tanâs favourite dish, around her neck and she disappeared into the forest.
I turned around to Nick and said,
âThen, letâs go, as we just heard!â
âI havenât heard anything!!! Serafi, you talked to the snake. Are you friends?â
âHuh⊠Nick will also gain all sorts of experience soon⊠Iâm sure you will understand somedayâŠâ
I recall the fateful day I met Miyu-tan, and glanced far away.
âIs that so? Will I be able to talk to snakes when I become a B-rank? No, probably notâŠâ
âOkay, weâre ready! Tie the horses here. Nick, be quiet alreadyâââ!â
I grab the lazy-a** Nickâs neck and run!
âUwaaaaa!â
âTarget found! Iâll deliver an attack from above, so Nick will stop here for a bit. Then, scatter!â
âWait! I still havenât seen it!â
Oh my, this junk bear is the biggest one Iâve seen. It is three meters tall. I canât use magic because I have Nick with meâŠ
ăIt would be bad to be exposed here, right?ă
âRight.â
I moved to the front of the junk bear and threw two shurikens that are strengthened and poisoned with both hands.
-busaa-!
-gyaa-!
The shurikens penetrated both eyes and pierced a big tree behind. Alright, I destroyed the brain! What?
The junk bear, who lost his sight, struggled and gurgled, then jumped at Nick for some reason!
Thatâs right, Nick is all bloody!
âNickâ! Sorryâ! Itâs coming over thereâ!â
âUoooooo!â
Nick jumps and dodges the sharp claws by a hairâs breadth. Huh, great!
âDonât just stand thereââ!!!!â
The Junk Bear still has some reasoning ability. It follows Nick with the smell of blood.
ăTenacious.ă
âWhich one?â
ăWhich one indeed. ă
âNickâ, you have to stab the heartâ Stab from the frontââ
âMeââ!?â
Thatâs right. It wonât mean anything if Nick himself doesnât stop it.
Nick put the breaks and dashed towards the Junk Bearâs belly! Now! I fired a lightning strike on the Junk Bear from Nickâs blind spot. The Bearâs movement stopped for a moment!
Which is of course, not something Nick would overlook.
-busaa-!!!
Nick pierced its heart with his Partner Sword.
ăŒ
âWeâre back, Lara-san!â
âWelcome back. Oh my? Nick, doesnât it feel like your soul is leaving you?â
While Lara-san checks out Nick who reeks of medicine, I pull out the junk bear from my .
âItâs huge.â
Sieg-old-man came out from the back.
âNick⊠Did Serafiona take you on a quest right after the certification?â
âG-guild MasterâŠâ
Nick is crying in Sieg-old-manâs chest. Nick, just when did you butter up with the Guild Master? He is not good with uncles, but old people are fine.
âHaâi! Thank you for completing a B-ranked subjugation quest! The reward this time is 200,000 gold, However, since it is such a big game, there is a 30,000 gold bonus, for a total of 230,000 gold! How do I divide it?â
âLara-san, Nick 15, me 8, please.â
âHey, what are you talking about?â
Nickâs eyes widened.
âThe price is decided like that because you attacked it as much!â
âThat isâŠâŠâ
And I said we were gonna have a celebration. I gave a smile.
âSerafiona-chan. Can I buy this jumbo junk bear?â
âYes, I brought it back with that intention. But⊠Can you give the fangs and hands to Nick?â
âWhy?â
Nick asks curiously.
âMen will make accessories out of the fangs to commemorate their victory. You can proudly show it to Kodak-sensei. The hands are a delicacy. So, bring it to your parents who have taken care of you thus far. Wonât they be glad.â
âSerafiâŠâ
âI see, Hime-sama is quite unreasonable today, but I canât see it in a bad light at all. And the blood and toenails will also go to Nick⊠Right?â
Sieg-old-man suddenly starts grinning. What? Why?
âJunk bearâs blood contains good iron. Dip a sword in the blood overnight and sharpen it with its claws. Then any and all swords can become as sharp as the national treasures.â
We all glance at the sword in Nickâs sheath.
âIs that so⊠All of this was, for me?â
âNo, not up to that pointâŠâ
âYoung Lady wonât admit it? Youâre so modest!â
No, Matt-kun, I really didnât know!
âYes, here is the purchase price. 486,337 gold. The price of the fur soared suddenly. I was lucky. This is also a celebration for Nick-kun from Serafiona-chan, right? Mou. Today really is just your day.â
No way!? Money from selling is supposed to be divided 50/50!!! I also need cash!!!
âItâs a celebration from your Senpai. Be thankful when receiving them. You can return the grace of today to your juniors someday.â
Sieg-old-man! Donât just make a conclusion on your own!
âSerafi⊠Thank youâŠâ
Nick holds his first reward in both hands⊠Biting his lips⊠Getting teary.
ăDonât worry about it⊠SeraâŠă
I too wanna get teary⊠But I forced a smile.
Because I can only smile⊠Right?
