NOVEL NEXT Chapter 526
A few days passed after the Methuselah incident was solved, and now, a strange meeting was held in Raum. That day, Cortina used her rest day and returned to Raum. This meeting was initiated by her.
So, I went ahead and set this up. A matchmaker for Adventurers only.
Lady Cortina, thats a little troubling!
As she declared that loudly after gathering Adventurers in the hall, the receptionist interjected with a troubled face. This was the suggestion she came up with after listening to Tricias worries the other day. This meeting was partly to help her.
Cortina looked doubtfully at the receptionist girl after hearing her complaint. After all, she had already asked permission for it beforehand, so the warning was uncalled for.
Why? Didnt I say beforehand that I was going to gather Adventurers and hold an event?
I have heard that, but there was not a word about it being a matchmaking event!
Im not telling you to participate, though? I mean, Im not forcing anyone.
Thats not it! If Adventurers decrease, that would trouble us!
Oh, that, huh?
With the matchmaking, there would of course appear people who would get married. And as a result, it would lower the level of Raums adventurers. Raum that was covered in forests was extremely suited for monsters to dwell in. Lowering the quality of Adventurers was quite certainly a problem of life and death.
If we heard it would be this kind of event, we wouldnt have agreed to it.
Huuh? Are you telling us not to get girlfriends?
What he said! We want our encounters too!
Actually, you should go out with me!
Dont get ahead now. She should obviously go out with me!
Okay, then I will go for Lady Cortina!
Know your place you fool!
The receptionists words invited voices of opposition. Their claims were valid, as adventurers working in Raums vicinity mainly dealt with monster subjugation, so they had few chance encounters.
They of course encountered women in related facilities, but generally, everyone that worked in this field was quite unapproachable. And while they couldnt find the chance to make a move, they would suddenly get married at their workplace and leave the radar.
As a result, they were always in a dire lack of available women, and longed for new encounters.
Well, everyones like this, so maybe you could let this pass?
I wont budge even if you ask it cutely.
Come on!
Hearing about Evil Dragons scales, her attitude did a complete turnaround. Even a single scale was valued higher than her annual income. Getting three of those would benefit the Guild a lot.
And that would also mean that her assessment would also skyrocket. Her change was but natural.
Alright then, I will now introduce the participants for today. First is the healing flower of the magic academy, Tricia!
Nice to meet you.
As Cortina pointed at the entrance, Tricia, dressed in a tight and sexy dress entered with flirtatious airs. Seeing that, all the Adventurers became deadly serious.
Okay, were done here~
Good work today.
Man, Ive worked up quite a sweat today too. Though its a cold sweat.
Huuh, whats with that reaction?!
The Adventurers tried to pass by Tricia and leave. She got pissed at that and objected.
Well, I mean
Arent you the venus flytrap of the magic academy?
Yeah, Ive heard of Tricia whos known for never letting you go once shes caught you.
You are a sloth and use men like your errand boys, dont you?
Why are you so knowledgeable about magic academy staff?
I mean, Nicole told me
I heard from Michelle.
And I from Letina.
Cortina was at her wits end after hearing it. Nicole certainly visited the doctors office all the time, and Michelle and Letina frequently accompanied her. Tricia certainly used male students like gofers every now and then.

The problem was that the one who spread those rumors was none other than Nicole, someone who was under her care. The way it looked, it was like Cortina was the reason behind Tricias relationships being hindered.
Wait wait, this girl has her good points too, so give her a little chance, will you?
Even if you tell me that
Her looks arent bad, but she cant get my heart to jump.
People over ten years old are outside of my strike zone.
Cortina was perplexed by the Adventurers incessant complaints. Raums Adventurers in general were quite amiable, but they were also quite the free spirits. They were naturally putting their guard up when someone tried to force a woman on them. This could be called a misreading on Cortinas part.
But if it stayed like this, her friends future would take a serious hit. As she racked her brains on how to handle it, one boy walked into the Guild.
Big bro Kayle, are you here?
Oh, Keith? What are you doing here?
Kayle, the strongest, fifth-ranked Adventurer of Raum showed himself before the boy.
The boy was limping and had a dainty appearance that was still full of childishness. He was a pretty boy completely dissimilar to Kayle. He seemed to be a little younger than Nicole.
Seeing that boy, Tricia trembled as if she was hit by lightning.
Tricia?
N
What, whats the matter?
Nice shota.
This time, Cortina just held her head and squatted down. Tricia saw young boys every day, but this was apparently her first time seeing someone so dainty. Cortina wasnt sure how to even deal with her reaction.
Ahem. More importantly, does this boy have a problem with the leg?
Huh? Oh, yeah, he was attacked by a monster quite a long time ago.
It seems it was dealt with badly. Let me examine it for a bit.
In any case, she was a professional doctor too. Seeing an injured person, she started examining him properly. It wasnt like she wanted to touch a bare leg of a shota, certainly not.
At the end of the day, this matchmaking for Tricia ended in a failure. However, after her zealous examination of Keith, she succeeded in obtaining his goodwill. How it would develop after this was entirely dependent on the people concerned.
