I get up with the sunrise, eat sweets, and start streaming. The usual flow.
“Mm. Morning.”
‘Good mooornin’!’
‘Rita-chan, morning!’
‘Cute again today!’
‘By the way… we have something we’re curious about…’
Comments like that flow a lot.
Last night I visited Master’s family home. Everyone knows that, so they’re apparently worrying. They’re people who say all kinds of mysterious things, but even so everyone is kind after all.
“Mm. I went and met them. They were kind people. I told them about Master too.”
‘Ohh! That’s good!’
‘Honestly I was worried they’d get angry or something’
‘Like they didn’t want to know that’
“I was a little nervous too, but it was fine. They made me lots of karaage too.”
‘Karaage?’
‘Why karaage?’
“It was Master’s favorite dish, they said.”
‘Ohh…’
‘He hadn’t even managed anything karaage-like…’
I don’t remember eating it either, so I don’t even know if Master tried to make it. Maybe Master had thoughts too, and didn’t even try.
The truth, I don’t know. I can’t ask Master either.
“Mm. Then, today’s plans. I intend to try adventurer work in this world.”
‘For real!?’
‘Means going to the guild, right’
‘I’m super looking forward to it’
I still haven’t been able to do adventurer-like work. This time I hope there’s a fun request.
For now, as usual, I teleport near the town.
When I enter the guild, lots of gazes stab into me. I just don’t feel hostility or anything, only gazes checking who came in.
“Oh, missy! Here to take a request?”
The one who calls out is the uncle who called out when I first came too. The uncle walks this way laughing looking like he’s in a good mood.
“So, what request are you taking? Nn?”
“Mm… Uncle, are you free? You’re always here.”
“Gufuh…”
Ah, he faceplanted. Um… Is it my fault?
‘The sharpness because there’s no malice’
‘Old man… you were a good guy…’
‘Go a little easier on him?’
Hmm… Seems like it is my fault after all. I only wondered a little.
“Uncle. Sorry.”
“Fu, fufu… It’s fine… It’s true I’m at loose ends with too much free time…”
“Ah, so you are free.”
“Guhah…”
‘Rita-chan lololol’
‘Stop already! The old man’s HP is zero!’
‘This is… the Witch of Seclusion…!’
Muu. I’ll try not saying anything.
I ignore the uncle who finally went down and go look at the board with requests posted. There are lots of requests. Which should I pick. Maybe I’ll try gathering medicinal herbs.
“Which is good?”
‘Gathering is a classic for beginners, right’
‘Here it should be goblin subjugation? With Rita-chan the gropey development isn’t happening anyway’
‘Escort requests or something. You can go see other towns too’
Hmm… Splendidly scattered. Maybe I’ll just pick at random.
“W-wait, missy…!”
“Mm?”
The uncle who’d gone down stands up. For some reason the adults around are watching over him. What is this.
“Ohh, Frank stood up!”
“That’s Frank for you! I’d cry for a day…!”
“As expected of you, Frank…!”
No, really, what is this.
‘Well Rita-chan’s innocent knife was too sharp…’
‘There are probably viewers who got stabbed to death too…’
‘I can see it… I can see it… the piled corpses of viewers…!’
Hmm… Honestly I don’t get the meaning. So, yeah. Sorry, but I’ll ignore it.
By the way, the uncle’s name is apparently Frank. He hadn’t introduced himself. First time I knew. I have to remember. He’s talked to me lots of times.
Frank comes up beside me and grins.
“Finally your first request?”
“Mm. I thought I’d take something.”
“I see I see. Then how about gathering medicinal herbs? I can teach you.”
“Hmm…?”
Gathering medicinal herbs. It was in the viewers’ suggestions too so I think it’s not bad, but this isn’t a hard request, right. Frank is probably B-rank or above, so I think it doesn’t pay.
“Frank, what’s your rank?”
“Me? A-rank. A three-person party.”
“Ohh…”
Yeah. Amazing. Amazing, but I get it even less. Gathering medicinal herbs isn’t work an A-rank would do, I think.
“I don’t think that’s work an A-rank would do.”
When I say that to Frank, the viewers’ retorts come faster than Frank’s.
‘No Rita-chan, you get that’s a boomerang?’
‘Why is an S-rank person about to take herb gathering, I wonder’
That’s, true, but… Hmm… Mm. Okay. I’ll set myself aside. Let’s go with that.
