The Guild Master had work to do, so she returned with the soldiers returning to the town. Just to be safe, we stayed in the village for two days to keep watch over the surrounding area, and made sure there were no goblins around before heading back to town.
The village fence had also been destroyed, so soldiers would patrol regularly until it was repaired.
Incidentally, the men from the village who had gone to work in the town were shocked when they heard that the village had been attacked by goblins, so they returned home.
“First of all, you will receive a reward for the investigation request, but there will be additional rewards for treating the villagers, defeating the goblins, and capturing a wanted criminal. However, we need to calculate the rewards again, so could you please give us a little time?”
“I understand. It’s fine with me.”
“We’re okay with it too.”
“Thank you.”
When we went to the reception desk of the guild, we were told about the delay of payment. We had defeated that many goblins, and we would have to share the money with the soldiers who had fought them with us.
In addition, there is also the purchase of Goblin General materials, so it will take some time to calculate the reward.
We didn’t have worries with money, so we didn’t have any problem with the delay.
Instead, a completely different problem arose.
“Did that member save the village from a group of goblins?”
“Even though the Guild Master and her soldiers were there, it seemed that they managed to fight off hundreds of goblins.”
“They seem to be a pretty promising rookie. There may be a fight over them soon.”
“It was said that they also caught those two. It’s a big achievement.”
Apparently, word spread that rookie adventurers saved the village from the goblins while we were not in town. Also, the story of those two people was spread throughout the town, so we became a bit of a celebrity.
However, for the time being, I plan to work with this group, and in early spring I will move to another frontier territory. It doesn’t seem like I’ll be able to act with other adventurers for a while.
“It’s hard to be popular.”
“Hahaha, I think it’s temporary.”
I was tapped on the shoulder by an aunt who was with me to collect medicinal herbs.
Fad popularity doesn’t last long, so it will probably die down after a while.
“Shun-oniichan, we got some sweets!”
“Eh!? Who gave you those sweets?”
“I got it from the group of oneechan over there!”
Shiro and Ao showed me the cookie-like candy they had received. Looks like Shiro and Ao became the mascots of the guild. Occasionally, other adventurers will pat them on the head.
Sue hurriedly went to thank the group of female adventurers who had given the sweets.
