Chapter 71: Preparing for a Business Trip Quest
In the morning, Tauro, Shin, and Rumeya came into the guild as usual.
“There’s a rare quest among the F rank quests.”
Shin pointed to a piece of paper on the bulletin board.
“It’s true. It’s a rare quest for F-rank. The mass outbreak of killer ants has led to a subjugation quest. F-E ranked adventurers are qualified to undertake this quest. What are you going to do Tauro-kun?”
Rumeya asked Tauro to make a decision.
The killer ants are huge ants, 50 to 60 centimeters in length and their jaws are strong enough to destroy fields.
It’s a level of monster that those in the F-rank zone can crush and deal with, but when they form a group, they attack people as well, so the danger increases.
That’s probably why the quest was made to both F-ranks and E-ranks this time.

The quest takes them to a neighboring village.
Count Delleler must have given this village to the knight who was in charge of it to clear out the forest.
Even though there was a knight in charge of the village, it seems the ants were coming out in large numbers at a level that couldn’t be taken care of.
“I think I’ll take it then.”
Tauro took one of the papers that had been posted.
“I’ll take one too.”
Shin followed suit.
“me too.”
Rumeya took the quest paper as if it were a matter of course.
“Both of you can choose the one you want okay?”
“We’ll improve faster if we work with you.”

“That’s right Tauro-kun. We’re one and the same!”
No, we’re not one and the same!
Tauro was inwardly annoyed, but if the two of them were okay with it, he couldn’t complain.
There were slots for four people, and one of them had already been filled, so now the slots were all full.
“Chloe-san, can I have this one?”
“You’re taking this quest? Tauro-kun, you guys have to be careful. There seems to be a real outbreak of them and some people didn’t like the quest even at E rank.”
Chloe said that she first approached the adventurers in the E rank zone before putting up the quest but none of them were willing to take it.
As a result, only one person in E rank took it.
“Alright, I’m going to make E+ Bob the leader, and you guys follow him.”
Oh, so it was Bob who took the job. His girlfriend Momo just moved in and now he’s going to be away from home. I guess he just couldn’t say no.

Tauro was taken aback by Bob’s good-naturedness but reminded himself that such a personality was a good thing.
“Well, let’s go out first thing in the morning and spend today gathering herbs and preparing for the trip.”
Tauro suggested to the two of them.
“Preparation?”
They didn’t know what they would be preparing.
“We’re just going to destroy the killer ants right?”
Rumeya had done several quests to defeat them, so he could only think of preparing a mallet.
“I’m just going to slash or crush them myself. What else can I prepare besides a sword?”
Shin also posed a question to Tauro.
“Well, we’ll talk later, so let’s take the herb gathering quest.”
When Tauro said this, they obeyed him and headed for the forest.
“Now we’ll find not only the medicinal herbs for the quest, but also this peerless grass, hub grass and capsicum.”
“What kind of grass?”
They didn’t seem to know why they were looking for grasses.
“These three plants are selective poisons that are harmful to insects.”
“Selective poisons?”
Shin asked in an unfamiliar tone.
“Selective poisoning is a property that is not harmful to humans but poisonous to insects, in other words, it is highly toxic only to certain organisms.”
“Oh!”
They finally understood what Tauro was trying to say. He meant that they would have to find a grass that was only effective against killer ants and use it in the quest.
“All right. I’ll look for it.”
Both of them nodded and started looking.
“We’ll need as many as we can get. It will be helpful.”
Tauro began to search using his “true eye” in the opposite direction of the two.
The three of them split up and searched for a large amount of grass.
It was convincing because there were no insect-based monsters in this forest.
“All right, if we have this much, we’re good. Now, please grind them up.”
Tauro pumped out the medicinal tools from the magic storage.
They were amazed at the sight.
“Tauro-kun, you have a magic storage?”
Ad
Oh, shoot!
Tauro was so busy thinking about what he was going to make that he forgot to keep it a secret.
“It small scale, but I had it in my skill set. Haha…”
He lied about the small scale, thinking that there was no way to cover up now that he had shown it.
“It’s a useful skill, so I can see why you’d want to keep it a secret. It would be dangerous if a bad guy found out about it.”
Shin took the liberty of interpreting Tauro’s feelings.
“You’re right, Tauro-kun, you’re still eleven years old, even if you’re well-behaved.”
Rumeya also agreed with Shin’s words.
Yeah, they’re not wrong, but….
He’d thought that these two people were dense, but they’re too nice.
Tauro smiled inwardly at the two good people.
