Chapter 625

Bear-san Tours the Venue

After returning from the castle, we rested in the bear house, partly at the request of Tirumina-san, who was mentally exhausted. Then, Sanya-san arrived.

She suggested that we should go and see the venue where the dismantling event was going to take place.

“I think it would be a good opportunity for you to see it before you attend the event, don’t you think so?”

We agreed to take Sanya-san’s word for it and have a tour for ourselves.

It was a good way for Tirumina-san to refresh her mind.

The venue for the event seemed to be a bit far away, so we boarded a horse-drawn carriage that Sanya-san had prepared for us.

My bear outfit was quite conspicuous, so I was grateful for the horse-drawn carriage ride.

It might be possible that Sanya-san had decided to take the carriage because she was embarrassed to walk with me.

“You are not going to hold it at the Adventurers’ Guild, right?”

“The guild building is big, but not big enough to accommodate visitors. So we’re renting a bigger place for the competition. The place is also used to host various events, so it’s very convenient.”

“I didn’t know such a place existed.”

Was it like the Tokyo Dome, the National Stadium, or the Japan Budoukan?

What we arrived to was a large building. Surrounded by high walls, we could not see the inside.

We parked the carriage in what looked like a garage and got off.

“This way!”

Sanya-san asked the caretaker to valet the carriage, and we started walking.

We walked through a passageway, up a flight of stairs, and out of the building.

“Wow, it’s huge!”

Shuri exclaimed.

It was shaped like an arena, circular, with a spectator seating area around it. There was a magnificent spectator’s seat in the center of the auditorium.

Perhaps it was a seat for His Majesty the King or some other great person to watch.

“They are used for knight’s tournaments and other events. They used it for His Majesty the King’s birthday celebration before.”

I didn’t know that.

Maybe I could have visited the place during the birthday celebration.

But the Royal Capital was huge. You couldn’t see everything in a few days.

Even in Tokyo, it would take days to see everything, especially just around the train stations.

“Ugh, I didn’t think it would be in such a big place.”

Shuri was running around, Fina was looking around, stunned at the size of the place, and Tirumina-san was also surprised at the size.

“We won’t utilise all of the space. If we’re too far away, the audience won’t be able to spectate it.”

The organisers were going to gather the contestants and spectators in one place of the arena, but they would be flexible depending on the number of participants and the monsters to be dismantled at that time.

“I will prepare seats for Tirumina-san and Shuri-chan so that they will have a good view of Fina-san.”

“Thank you.”

Tirumina-san thanked her.

“I like it, sister. I wish I could join too.”

“Shuri-chan, can you dismantle as well?”

“Yes, I’m not as good as my sister, but I can do it.”

“Fufu, when you get better at it, I’ll ask you to join us next time.”

“Really?”

“Yes, I’m sure, and I’ll be counting on you then.”

Shuri was happy to hear Sanya-san’s words.

“Yuna-chan, can I have a word?”

“What is it?”

“Do you still have the monsters that you killed at the Elven Village? It’s still in that item bag, right?”

Volgwrath and the cockatrice remained in the bear box, not even dismantled.

“I’d like to talk to you tomorrow about that in more detail, can you spare some time?”

“I don’t have any particular plans, so that’s fine.”

I was thinking of taking Tirumina-san and the others on a tour of the Royal Capital, so it was fine.

After touring the event site, we were taken back to the bear house by horse-drawn carriage.

Then, over dinner prepared by Tirumina-san, we talked about what we would do tomorrow.

“Tomorrow, I have been invited by Sanya-san, so can Tirumina-san go with Fina and the others to tour the Royal Capital?”

“That’s okay, but don’t we have to join you?”

“It’s will be about the monsters that I defeated, so you don’t need to.”

“Okay, then I’ll go with Fina and the others to the Royal Capital tomorrow.”

The next day, I arrived at the Adventurers’ Guild alone to meet Sanya-san. I thought about it the other day, but there were not many adventurers present. I looked around and approached the receptionist, who, perhaps having been well-informed, immediately showed me through to the room where Sanya-san was.

“Yuna-chan, come in. Please take a seat.”

I sat down in the chair she suggested.

“So, should I offer hand over the cockatrice?”

“Thank you for being so quick. Yes, I was thinking about what to do with the main monster. Then I remembered the cockatrice. Of course, I’ll pay you a fair price for it.”

“I don’t need the money, but I don’t want to give away the material.”

As a former gamer, I was inclined to hoard materials that I might not know when I would use.

Well, it was more or less unused as it was, and often the materials continued to be storedp in my item box, but there were more than a few times when I was glad to have them.

So, since I was never in need of money, I preferred to keep the hard-to-find materials on hand.

If I did have a problem with money, I would just sell it.

“The stuff you take apart is supposed to be sold, right, no?”

“I don’t like it when you say that so cutely.”

“I’d say no. I thought the Adventurers’ Guild was supposed to provide the items to be dismantled. You don’t have it prepared?”

“Well, we have prepared them. We’ve worked out some preparations, so the monsters are now in storage, using magic to prepare them for this event. But if a rare monster is hunted down, word will spread quickly and people will know about it before the event.”

I see, thinking about it, when I defeated the Black Viper, the word spread so quickly.

It was also known that I had defeated Tiger Wolf.

If it was brought to the Adventurers’ Guild, there would be publicity and no way to keep it hushed up. Inevitably, news would spread.

People could not keep their mouths shut completely.

“That’s why I wanted to bring out a monster that was unknown to either the adventurers or the guild staff.”

If they knew the monsters they were going to dismantle, they could prepare for it.

That would give the adventurers and guild officials in the Royal Capital an advantage.

Sanya wanted to avoid that.

“So, Yuna-chan, I was wondering if you still have the cockatrice, and if you could give it to me.”

“Only if I can have some of the materials.”

“Alright, thank you. Let’s talk about what part of the material you would be willing to share with us.”

We were about to start talking about the finer details when there was a knock at the door.

“What is it?”

Sanya-san grudgingly allowed the person on the other side of the door to enter, and the receptionist entered the room.

“What’s wrong?”

“Well, we have a visitor who has come to ask for an urgent request, but we don’t have any adventurers who can accept the request at the moment, so I would like to inquire if we should decline the request.”

Apparently they couldn’t say no.

“What is the request?”

“They say that a Tiger Wolf has appeared in a village.”

A Tiger Wolf appeared in a village. That would be a problem for the livestock and other animals they had.

“I see, a Tiger Wolf is too much for a low-ranked adventurer to manage, right?”

“Yes, the adventurers with ranks suitable to eradicate the Tiger Wolf were out of town, preparing for the event.”

By event, do they mean the dismantling event?

“I’ll talk to them for now.”

Sanya-san left the room, and I somehow followed her.

When I walked to the reception desk, a man was there.

“Thank you for waiting.”

“Are you the Guild Master?”

“Yes, I’m Sanya, the Guild Master. I’ve heard about your request. As the receptionist said, there are no adventurers available at this time that could hunt it.”

“There should be some adventurers available, right?”

The man looked at the adventurers in the guild.

The adventurers look away or fled from the adventurers’ guild.

“They are not good enough to defeat a Tiger Wolf.”

“This is the royal capital, right? Why aren’t there any around?”

“There is an event coming up soon, and the leading adventurers are out of town hunting to prepare for it. If you give us some time, I’m sure they’ll be back.”

“When will they be back?”

“Sorry, I don’t know. We don’t really know how long it will take them to get from their quests. And even if they do come back, it will be up to the adventurers whether they accept the request or not.”

“Then the village…”

The man drooped his head.

Was it my imagination that I was having a déjà vu?

I could imagine what he would say if I approached him here.

But that didn’t mean I could just walk away and pretend I didn’t see him.

“Do you need my help?”

“Yuna-chan? That’s very kind of you, but is it okay?”

“If I hear later that the whole village was wiped out, I won’t be able to sleep well.”

Given my personality, there was no doubt in my mind that I would regret it.

Even I, with my bad character, I still have a bit of humanity.

“Then may I ask you to help them?”

“Are you kidding me?”

The man raised his voice.

“There’s no way a girl dressed like that can defeat a Tiger Wolf!”

I have missed that. It has been a long time since I’ve had this reaction.

I didn’t get this kind of reaction recently, so it feels fresh.

I mean, I was a well-known member of the Adventurers’ Guild in Crimonia. I rarely received requests directly from clients.

So it was not the first time recently that I have received this kind of reaction.

“She may be dressed like this, but she is an excellent adventurer. You can trust her to take care of it.”

“How can I believe that?”

“If she fails to defeat the Tiger Wolf, I, the Guild Master, will take responsibility.”

“Sanya-san, are you sure you want to say that?”

“I trust Yuna-chan more than any other adventurer. Besides, you can beat a Tiger Wolf, right?”

“Well, I can beat them easily.”

I have records of hunting them down, and they were not that challenging.

“Then there should be no problem.”

It was embarrassing to be trusted so much.

“Oh, please keep the damage low if you can, because I want to use Tiger Wolf in the event as well.”

“…Okay.”

The man listened silently to our conversation.

Guild Master Sanya-san said she would take responsibility, so he couldn’t say anything.

After the decision was made, I asked him about the location of the village and decided to leave as soon as possible.
