Chapter 9: A Family Trip!!First Up Is the Deep Forest!!

Rem searched through the papers that were going to be my quests whilst I was away from this city. For one who was drunk she was strangely calm and collected.

"Alright, since you are going to the Alesia Mountains you must fulfill these quests"

"Okay!"

I took the papers and began to read them, wait why can I read this if at all?This is definitely not Japanese, well duh I am in a different world but that still doesn't explain why I can read this. Is this the legendary translation konyaku?

"Um gather the rare God's Flower herb from there, no details on where it is, so an image was provided. Understood. Hmm?"

"What is it hic?"

"Why's there I must defeat the Frost Giant King here?"

"Ah, yes hic, that's another problem ordinary adventurers can deal with."

"Oh?Now this is something I and my older sister shall enjoy doing"

"I am an ordinary adventurer...."

""A Hero Slaying Adventurer doesn't exist in any nation""

Both Rem and Shen said at the same time making me realize just how anomalous I was in the equation of nations and such.

"I am glad you didn't go to the nations that we have bad relations with hic"

"Ah, you're right. Alright then I'll be off then, see you later Rem"

"Go away now"

Rem spoke in an even more drunken voice than the calm and collected voice she had spoken before as both me and Shen moved out of the room. When I had returned to the guild hall, Shiro and Kuroe had been playing around with Geri and Freki meanwhile everyone was staring at Alex and Ellen with intense gazes as Sev was casually talking to them as if she had known them for a long time.

"Oi"

"Ah you're back, I was about to discuss that time we-"

"Quit giving these guys problems will ya?"

"Alright, I was just interested in them as well. Ellen was once captured by a similar Dark elf who was an evil slave trader until Alex killed the guy and thus follows him around"

"Wah"

"Hahaha"

Alex scratches the back of his head with a dry laugh as Sev utters this out carelessly. Shen then nods at the explanation as to why she was so tense to me on my first day.

"Ehh~ Is that so~ Say Ellie why don't we have a trip together to the Alesia Mountains?"

"No"

Rejected. Instantly too. I dropped my shoulders as I didn't expect her to give her reply so fast with Shen simply laughing as she heard her.

"We have plenty of people already, why add more to that number"

Actually she was right but what will these guys do to escape the incoming barrage of questions that is coming their way as soon as we leave here? As if reading my mind Sev got close to me with a smile.

"They are going to be hired as bodyguards to my assistant back in my home country. I've formally requested the guild for this so it should be fine"

"Sev you are one scary Sage"

"Heh"

She smiled as she heard me say that to her face, and to think she would be so thoughtful enough to make them do that.
