Chapter 66: Settling Down
It had been a month since Tauro had stayed in the village.
The village was becoming more and more lively.
Bob, who had been away for a long time, visiting the surrounding towns and villages, came back in the afternoon.
“Welcome back Bob-san.”
Tauro greeted Bob at the inn.
“Tauro-kun. I’m back. I was troubled by the fact that there are more bad rumors about this town than I thought…”
“Is that so?”
“So I told them about the curse and showed them the magic stone and they believed me, but there was one person who didn’t…”

“Someone who didn’t believe you?”
“The former head of this Dansas branch.”
“Oh, I see.”
Tauro understood.
If the head of the branch had gotten aware of it at the time, right after he took office, it might not have been as difficult as it was.
It was a problem that could be solved by two adventurers of E-rank and F-rank and if the Branch manager wasn’t aware of it and quit due to his short temper, then his capabilities were in question, which he wouldn’t want to admit.
“Well, the guild seems to be considering new candidates and since this is one of the larger villages and the problem has been resolved, I’m sure someone will come along soon.”
“That’s good to hear. Chloe, the receptionist is doing everything by herself right now and I’m helping her because it’s a lot of work.”
“What do you mean “it’s a lot of work”, did we get adventurers from other places?”
Bob was so surprised.
“Thanks to you, we have two newcomers, a C-ranked team of adventurers from elsewhere, and four soloists.”

“That’s a faster response than I expected!”
“There are some villages, mountains and forests that are easily accessible from here you know. There’re also many areas with lots of monsters so there’s plenty of demand. We’re getting requests for quests from nearby villages as well since it’s too far to go to the guild in town.”
“I see… So quest requests are also coming in now?”
“Yes, and the villagers are waiting for you Bob.”
“Eh? Me?”
“They want to thank the village hero again. So please go to the village chief’s house.”
Tauro pushed Bob’s back and drove him from the inn to the village chief’s house.
I’m sorry Bob, I put you in charge of the trouble!
Tauro explained to the villagers that he was just Bob’s assistant.
The villagers had no choice but to believe him when he told them that.

It would be more difficult to believe that an eleven-year-old kid was the one that lifted the curse, but they would accept that Bob was the hero.
When Bob visited the village chief’s house, he was puzzled because he was being treated like a hero and explained that Tauro was the hero, not him.
However, this action was misunderstood as Bob being humble.
Tauro had reminded them beforehand that Bob would be humble and praise him, but not to misunderstand him.
The village chief honestly believed what Tauro had said and interpreted it as Bob being humble.
What a modest adventurer. The village chief liked Bob so much that he offered to give him one of his empty houses as a thank you.
At first Bob refused, but when he was told that the villagers would be relieved to have Bob living in the village, it was hard to refuse.
Originally, Bob was planning to use this village as a base for his activities, so it was a good deal for him, but he didn’t want to take it for free.
So he agreed to pay the rent.
The rent was one silver coin.
At first, Bob was reluctant, but he nodded when the village chief told him that it would be a great help if he could take care of the house.
So far, everything went according to the plan of Tauro and the village chief.
The village chief wanted to thank Bob for his kindness and Tauro wanted to make Bob happy, who was too good-natured for his own good, so the whole thing was planned from start to finish.
Bob was wonderfully being made to dance on the palm of Tauro’s hand in the right direction.
When Tauro heard from Bob, who had returned to the inn that they had decided to rent him a house.
Yes!
Tauro inwardly made a gut pose.
“I’ve decided to move out of the inn and into a house.”
“That sounds great! I’ll help you.”
“Well, since it has so much room, why don’t you come to the house?”
Bob invited Tauro to join him.
“No! no! Please leave that room for your future wife.”
“Hey! I haven’t decided to invite her yet!”
Bob was blatantly upset.
Apparently, he has a girlfriend.
Tauro thought it would be better for him if he brought her here.
“You have a girlfriend right? Since this is such a nice village, why don’t you invite her to live with you? Let’s do that.”
Bob nodded his head at Tauro’s suggestion.
