Chapter 36 – Bear-san Is Thanked By The Guild Master

Chapter 36 Bear-san Is Thanked By The Guild Master

Authors note: I was able to (finish the) submission.

I arrived at the guild so I could look for an interesting request.

When I entered the guild, my eyes met Helens.

I tried to go to the request board without stopping, but...

Alll test novl on novelbn/(.)cm

Yuna-san!

Helen shouted.

I would like it if you didnt suddenly shout out when you saw people.

Arent the adventurers in the room looking over here now?

What is it?

What did you do this time? I was told to tell you that the guild master wishes to see you whenever you arrived.

What was this lady saying, as soon as I walked in?

Why? I didnt do anything this time.

Is that really true?

Even if you look at me with suspecting eyes, I dont remember anything.

I havent even accepted any requests these past few days.

Regardless of my feelings on the matter, I was taken to the guild masters room again.

Guild master! Yuna-san arrived, so Ive brought her here.

A voice from inside called come in.

I entered reluctantly.

For now, please sit down.

I sat down in the chair that was closest to the entrance.

Umm, it seems like I was called, but for what?

Its about Gentz. I wanted to thank you.

Thank me?

You cured Tiruminas illness and also made Gentz get married, it seems?

Thats true, but why would the guild master be thanking me for that?

First, because I heard that Tiruminas illness was cured by a rare medicine from your hometown.

Gentz was keeping quiet about how she was cured by magic.

If it was spread carelessly and people who wanted their illnesses cured came to me, it would become troublesome.

For that reason, we pretended that the illness had been cured by a rare medicine.

Tirumina-san was a former adventurer here, so I wanted to check up on her when she fell sick.

Was it for Finas sake, since she was working at the guild?

Thats right. I thought about how to help, even if it was just a little. However, it wasnt possible to openly employ her, so we could only do it when there was a lot of work. Thats why I was grateful when you brought the wolves. Youre employing her even now, right?

Im just doing as I like.

Its not just that. That fellow Gentz still hadnt gotten married despite his age. I knew that he had feelings for Tirumina, but she was sick, and even though her husband was gone, she still had two kids. Then, suddenly, you came along, healed Tiruminas illness, and supported Gentzs feelings. That was why I wanted to express my gratitude. Thank you.

You dont have to worry about it. I intimidated them into getting married for Finas sake.

And that wasnt because you were worried about her, but because you wanted her to be able to concentrate on work, right?

He said it cheerfully.

Could it be that the relationship between Gentz-san and the guild master wasnt as simple as one between a subordinate and a superior?

However, that is unrelated to me, so Im going to go home.

Then, Im leaving.

I was about to stand up, when someone knocked on the door.

Guild master, Cliff Foschurose-sama has arrived. Shall I show him in?

Ah, I dont mind.

The door opened and Cliff entered the room.

Pardon me for imposing on you so early in the morning.

Cliff noticed me after entering the room.

Bear girl?

Well then, please allow me to excuse myself here.

Ah, I took up quite a bit of your time.

I stood up from the chair and tried to leave the room, but I was stopped at the last moment.

Ah, is it okay for Yuna to stay?

The feudal lord, Cliff, said such a thing.

I also have a small matter that I want to consult with Yuna about.

Cliff pushed down my shoulders and made me sit in a chair.

So, what is it, so early in the morning?

You also know that the king is celebrating his 40th birthday next month, correct?

Ah, more or less.

I dont have anything worthy to gift the king on that occasion.

If thats the case, go to the Commerce Guild. This is the Adventurers Guild.

I already went, but there didnt seem to be anything that a king would be happy with. Even if I presented something that could be bought with money, he wouldnt be happy. Thats why, I was wondering if there were any rare swords, armor, or tools at the Adventurers Guild.

The noticeable things are turned over to the Commerce Guild.

As I thought. I came to check, just in case. So, for plan B, Id like to consult with you, Yuna-san.

What?

Dont you have rare items with you? Like the item bag that looks like a bear or the item that summons the summoned beasts.

Im sorry, but I dont. Of course, theres no way Im handing over this bear item bag.

In that case, cant you create something like that Bear House-thing? Ive seen it and it was amazing. Still, something that large would be difficult to carry, so Id be grateful for something small.

Un, theres nothing I cant make.

If I used ideas from Earth, I could create something like that hair dryer.

However, if I did something like that, things would probably become really troublesome.

If it turned out that way, living a leisurely life would be impossible.

For now, I checked to see whether there were any suitable items inside the Bear Box.

.........

......

...

Un? Theres a good item.

You came to the Adventurers Guild to look for unusual weapons or armor, right?

Yes.

In that case, what about this?

I took out the Goblin Kings sword from the Bear Box.

This is?

The Goblin Kings sword.

Really?!

I certainly heard about you defeating a Goblin King before, but to think you were carrying the Goblin Kings sword!

The two peoples reactions were unexpectedly good.

For now, lets confirm its authenticity.

The guild master called a staff member over and requested a staff member who could perform identification.

An elderly man arrived immediately.

He examined the Goblin Kings sword.

Theres no mistake, this is a Goblin Kings sword.

I see, thanks for your help. You can go back now.

The male staff member left the room.

Will this be acceptable as a gift to the king?

Ah, its good enough, since its a rare sword.

Is that so? Isnt it something that you can obtain by defeating a Goblin King?

Not all Goblin Kings have it. I dont know the details, but apparently this was originally a normal sword. When the Goblin King carries it, the Goblin Kings magic power flows through it and it transforms, or so Ive been told. Therefore, Goblin Kings who are born with weak magic power arent able to possess a true Goblin Kings sword.

Even in the game, it had a low probability of dropping.

I wonder if it was the same thing?

Though, to begin with, there was no concept of a Goblin Kings development in the game.

So then, are you going to give me that sword?

Its fine with me.

Then, around how much do you want for it?

I dont know the value of such things, so how much would something like this be?

To tell you the truth, I dont know. Even if you want one, its difficult to obtain one. Whatever you decide on is fine with me. If I am able to pay it, then Ill buy it.

With this approach, wont I be at a disadvantage, since I dont know the market price?

Well, I wasnt hard-pressed for money so any amount was fine. Due to that, I didnt really care.

Im fine with giving it to you, so how about one favor instead?

A favor?

A feudal lord knows a lot about bad things, right? So, I want your assistance if I get into trouble.

Dont say such scandalous things. Im a respectable person.

Well, jokes aside, if I have a favor to ask of you next time, Id like for you to listen to my request.

What would you want me to do, as an example?

To make the guild master resign or something?

H-Hey!

The guild master stood up.

Its a joke. I dont have anything I need right now. Ill be counting on you if something comes up. If nothing does, isnt it a good deal for you?

Are you alright with that?

Im fine. It seems more interesting this way.

In that case, Ill receive this gratefully. Is a contract prepared?

I dont need one. Its fine if the promise is broken.

I faced him with a smile.

As a matter of fact, the sword was unnecessary.

It wasnt a problem for me even if I didnt have it.

I thought it was worthwhile as long as he owed me a favor.

No, if its something I can do, I swear to lend a hand.

Swearing that he would help was going way overboard.

Well then, Ill be counting on you when the time comes.

===============================================

I was finally able to dispose of the Goblin Kings sword that I had written about back then without thinking about anything.
