The carriage arrived at the territory capital before evening, so we headed straight to the Adventurer’s Guild.
“Oh, you guys are back. How was the expedition?”
“It was pretty tough but it was a good experience.”
“I see. That’s good.”
Since there are many adventurers who complete the procedure in the evening, Liliana-san, the deputy guild master, was also in the reception booth.
“Did you have fun, Fran-chan and Horn-chan?”
“Yes. I killed a lot of wild boars!”
“Mm, lots of them.”
“Huh? You killed a lot of wild boars? Shun-san, can you tell me about it?”
“Oh, yes, sure.”
Liliana-san seemed to feel something was off after listening to what Fran and Horn had said. That’s why we decided to move to an individual booth next to the reception booth.
“Then, Fran-chan and Horn-chan, how many wild boars did you catch?”
“Hmm, I hundred I guess.”
“About two hundred?”
“Over two hundred!”
“Oh, and we caught little deers too!”
“It’s about a hundred too!”
“Really?”
““Yes, it’s true!””
Fran and Horn are trying their best to explain to Liliana-san, but Liliana-san was surprised by the number of wild boars that Fran and Horn have killed.
Her expression…. Is there something wrong?
“Shun-san, is the number of heads killed by Fran-chan and Horn-chan really true?”
“It’s true. There were also a number of them sold to the village, but it was roughly around that number.”
“Hmm, that’s bad then.”
Oh?
Liliana-san seemed to think more deeply after hearing what I had said.
“Killing about 20 wild boars is equivalent to E or F rank, and if you kill more than 200 boars, it is equivalent to B or C rank. In that case, there is a suspicion that the village has made a false application.”
“““Ah!?”””
Liliana-san’s remarks surprised not only me, but also Sue, Maya-san and Sera-san.
I could have put Maya-san and Sera-san in danger then.
“L-Liliana-san, the truth is…. Something like that happened in the village.”
I told Liliana about the church incident that happened in the village.
Then, Liliana-san clasp her hands together and spoke to me.
“Then the timing is just right. The deputy captain is at the guild master’s office today. I’ll take you there.”
By coincidence, the deputy captain happened to be in the guild master’s office.
This is a godsend, so with Liliana-san’s lead we head to the guild master’s office.
