NOVEL NEXT Chapter 541
I consulted Michelle and Letina about the newbie training too; as expected, they didnt have any objections and readily agreed to it. Having their approval, I went to tell Gadius that we were officially taking on the commission. I also got information on what kind of beginners wed be dealing with.
Looks like they are beginners aged between fifteen to seventeen. Guess they had a bit of a slow debut.
So theyre our age, huh? I wonder if we can really do a good job as teachers.
Im pretty sure theyd raise their hands up once they see your bow skill, Michelle.
Will they really?
Michelle was listening from the side, but she suddenly brought that up. Honestly, she could even easily shoot the eyes of the opponent that was so far away I couldnt even see properly, so everyone with the eyes to see would be shocked.
Had she been born twenty-five years earlier, she wouldve surely been part of the Evil Dragon extermination team.
Cortina and I had abilities that were hardly specialized for battles, but since we had various technical skills, we managed to overcome difficult situations by combining all the skills we had.
Michelle on the other hand had a single combat-oriented ability, and this was the result. As expected, the qualities of Gifts were quite evident.
Thank God a peace-loving girl like she wasnt born during those times.
Their area of operations has been a small portor rather, a fishing village, west of Raum. Because of that, I couldnt get accurate information, but there shouldnt be much that needs special attention in a rural place.
There was a student making dangerous drugs at the kingdoms border, you know?
Thats because he had the dukes backing. This time theres no one that important around. They are just small fries from the countryside. I heard they were quite naughty too.
What are they even doing in Stollar?
It was certainly doubtful why they decided to come all the way to Stollar which was on the northern boundary of the kingdom, when their base of operations was the western fishing village.
I didnt know where that village was exactly, but it should be quite far away from here.
I bet their naughtiness got them kicked out of the village. This commission is because the Guild pointed out that their basic skills are lacking.
Im surprised people fresh out of the countryside managed to put up such a commission.
Looks like they gathered some small change through Floating Wakame harvests.
Bwgh?!
Hearing the familiar name, I ended up choking. Floating Wakame were sea monsters that floated on the water surface and dissolved plants for nourishment. I remembered we met quite a misfortune when we tried to harvest them once. Speaking of it, that was also the first timethatcame.
Ohh, that thing that dissolves swimsuits.
Oh my, Im surprised that I captured it.
Even Michelle and Letina, who didnt suffer direct harm, remembered it.
So Finia and I who did suffer directly would too, of course. Finia furrowed her brows in a rare show of disgust.
Cloud was bending over a little. What happens to him later depends on whether he remembered Finias immodest appearance, or the punishment that followed after it.
They are all guys. They probably didnt even need swimsuits.
Huh,not even swimsuits,you say?
Well, I mean, they didnt wear anything below. Id hate to do it though.
Cloud answered Letinas question instantly. With all of them being boys, they would have no sense of shame in that regard. Lyell and I also did stuff like fishing all naked where Maria and Cortina couldnt see us.
Our certain parts got bitten by aggressive fish in the process so Maria had to heal us while looking at us with scorn, but I supposed thats youthful indiscretion for you.

So barbaric Will we really be okay?
Strength-wise, they wont even reach your feet. You should guess it from the fact that they have no other choice but to earn money with Floating Wakame.
What was that about them being naughty?
Stealing a bite of the dried fish, or smoking at the fishing gear storage and causing a small fire, and things like that.
Gadius quickly answered my question. In other words, he had already investigated the problematic parts. But still, causing a fire isnt very good. Depending on the region, that wouldve been deemed a serious crime.
I will contact the Guild, so the commission will start once the other party is ready. You should be ready to set out at any moment.
Okaay! Its gonna be my first time being a teacher.
I havent been one either. Ive always been the one being taught.
As for me, I have given some instructions at the senior academy.
Letina puffed her chest with pride, but didnt you use the fire attribute inside the forest? Havent you grown quite dull since you stopped participating in combats?
Ah, Letina is a no-go. This commission would span for some days.
Huuuhh?!
Besides, you are Maxwells fiancee. It is bad for your reputation to keep messing around too much.
Letina couldnt argue back after Gadius remonstration. She was here thanks to Maxwells kindness. It wasnt good to be too selfish.
Well, just give up on this one. Anyway we dont know if those guys can even prepare properly, so we should prepare everyones share on our side.
Thats plenty possible. They are basically amateurs.
But wouldnt our luggage grow too heavy? Im not sure if we can carry so much.
We have a carriage so thatll be fine!
And I have Elizabeth!
Unfortunately, the carriage will not work inside the forest.
You have a two-horse carriage? And with three horses in total, your expenses should be quite significant.
Michelle and Cloud puffed their chests in pride at Letinas remark. Since she spoke about the costs, I suppose shes aware of how costly having horses can be.
Thats beside the point. We are already fourth-rank, so we can earn quite a bit.
Mgh, yet I am still a third rank
Our ranks went up after Letinas withdrawal. So her rank was the same as when we parted. She looked frustrated about that, yet also seemed to be enjoying this situation.
