Chapter 252: Sick Days

Tauro was concerned about the lack of quest requests from the Adventurers’ Guild.

If I stay here forever without completing any quests, all the hard work I did to reach the D rank with everyone will be lost.

That said, I can’t go back to Dansas village and do random quests regularly.

Tauro, who could not stay cooped up in Ragunes’ house, decided to take a walk around the Dragon People’s village (which is about the size of a town) and think of a way out of this mess.

“…Although it’s almost completely surrounded by mountains and cut off from the rest of the world, but there is an abundance of fresh seafood, not to mention wild foods, and the craftsmanship is on par, if not better than in the royal capital. The food…this is normal, but the overall standard is very high. There seems to be little or no trouble…. Hmmm, when it comes to this, finally, no one will ask the Adventurer’s Guild…”

Tauro used to rely on the adventurer’s guild when he was in trouble, but for the Dragon People, there was no room for the Adventurers’ Guild, since they were able to defeat monsters and do all the heavy lifting themselves, and when they couldn’t do it themselves, they would ask their neighbors for help.

“In this case… the only way is to make them want to rely on us…”

Tauro spent several days walking around the area and, after much deliberation, came up with a number of strong-arm tactics.

The first was to go to the artisan street and blatantly show off his skills to attract the interest of the artisans and get them to order work through the guild.

Second, he would make anonymous requests and solve them himself, which would not earn him any money, but would allow him to meet his minimum quota for completion.

The third is to use his position as a lifesaver in the village of the Dragon People to sway the chief and get him to make some appropriate request.

Yes, after much worrying and wandering, Tauro could only come up with something out of the ordinary.

“I thought it was a good idea last night, but after a good night’s sleep, I realized what a horrible idea I had come up with…”

Tauro hated himself.

“…No, but the first plan is still better…the second and third are so out there I don’t even want to remember them…”

Tauro’s technology, of course, refers to the products using magic circle, which even Ragune was impressed with.

Fortunately, the magic lanterns that have been a big success in the capital, the cloth products that do not get wet, and the blacksmithing techniques for refrigerators have not yet been introduced here.

Besides, Tauro had a new product idea in his mind that he thought would sell well in this dragon people’s village.

Therefore, I decided to rely on the palliative method of showing the craftsman here the technique and appealing to them, and having them go through the guild to be taught.

But, however.

“The Adventurers’ Guild does not accept such a request. That kind of technical work is under the jurisdiction of the guild of commerce.”

The receptionist clearly rejected Tauro’s question, “Is this something I can do?”

it’s not surprising.

Not all quests are acceptable.

After all, I’m too impatient and thinking too many strange things…!

Tauro fell to his knees in the guild and held his head in his hands.

It had been ten days since Tauro had been staying with Ragune’s brother, Drago.

Every day he visited the Adventurers’ Guild in the morning, but there were “0” quests, and finally he wondered what to do.

Should we go for 2 and 3, which are really bad ideas at this point? As for 2, I thought it would be good to just ask Drago and give him money and ask him to make an appropriate request.

I don’t know how long I’ll be here, but I’m afraid of what if I move to action at the last minute and it doesn’t work.

Tauro wanted to have an idea of what to expect.

On that day as well, while Tauro was looking at the empty bulletin board, the receptionist stood in front of him with a piece of paper and put it up on the board.

Its contents were

“Free Quest: Help with dungeon capture. 』

* I would like to have a space transferee who can pick up and drop off the capture group.

Client: Chief Ryuga

It was a “Free Quest: Help with dungeon attack.

Apparently, Drago was concerned about Tauro’s daily visits to the Adventurers’ Guild, and reported it to the chief who came up with this form.

“This is what I had in mind…!”

Tauro breathed a sigh of relief when he read the details of the quest.

The dungeon capture itself is a high-ranked quest, and there’s no way the adventurer’s guild will accept it as a D-rank quest at the scrutiny stage, but if it’s a free quest with a special ability and a limited transfer, the risk level can be reduced and even D-rank Tauro can accept it within the guild rules.

Tauro had initially intended to accept this request, which was at a level he could not normally accept on his own, without going through the guild, so this was a blind spot.

“This should be fine, right?”

When I brought this quest to the reception, the receptionist said while receiving the quest form.

It seemed that it was this receptionist who gave her wisdom to the chief’s advice.

“What is your name?”

Having come to an agreement, Tauro uttered a line he had heard somewhere.
