63 - Farewell, W Country

RAW

It seemed like a long time or a short time.

I leave the guild's banquet hall where they were celebrating the successful conquest of the B-rank dungeon, and remove the [Wand Flower] that had a cleaning magic circle in it. Furthermore, I removed the [Wand Flower] I placed in the lodging house, the [Wand Flower] that I set up in the vegetable garden, and everything else.

Aah, but while I'm at it... I'm going to leave a letter in the Pharmacist Lina's room to pass the baton of things related to compounding medicines such as potions.
For the receptionist, I gave her a list of recipes for the dishes I have made. I also tell her if she’s having trouble with the familiars, ask Giam... this is what’s called ‘a bird does not foul the nest it is about to leave’.

I have already completed the departure formalities at the government office... and Midia’s while we’re at it, and I have informed the adventurer’s guild and the royal family of M Country that we are heading to I Confederacy.
Well, we’re accompanying Giam and W Country's dispatched personnel until I Confederacy after all.

The receptionist let out a heavy sigh.

“Are you really going to leave...?”

“It can't be helped. Because I can't do solo dungeon investigation here.”

“... is that the reason?”

“That's the number one reason.”

Of course, if we go to I Confederacy, people would gossip about me for using magic circles... They also have a strangely troublesome system.
As I recall... They have a system where adventurers of rank A and above are obliged to be a teacher for at least three years.
If your attitude as a teacher is sloppy or if problems occur with your students, you will have to be punished as a teacher or an adventurer. They could extend your teaching period. In the worst case, you could be demoted in rank... It's a reeeeeeaaaaaally annoying system.
Their official stance seems to be [for the sake of nurturing the next generation of adventurers], but it is absurdly the worst.
In my case, where would I be assigned to? Please spare me just from the light element vocational school.

Despite my inner thoughts, the receptionist said, “I see”.

“Actually… about the riverbank dungeon. It seems to be equivalent to B~A rank.”

“So it’s potentially A-rank... but it’ll be fine. They can handle it now.”

in any case.
They have intensive training, mentality, the mindset of an adventurer, and proper knowledge hammered into them.
Although it is only the basics of the basics, it is up to the adventurer themselves to decide how to grow from there.
And this lousy guild... they stubbornly refused to give in to the solo ban, but let's leave it at that.
I believe that they have improved from before, and I’ve done my best to make sure they won’t complain that they can’t do without me.

Port who aspired to be an adventurer. If he just grows a little more, he should be able to do well as an adventurer.

Christoph and his team. Their dispute with Heinz is not something I can intervene in. They should settle their own problems. Unfortunately, I'm not a good-natured person. I won't do anything.

Wendy. I don't know if I was able to contribute to the development of monster cuisine, but I gave her documents about things like the procedure to subjugate monsters in the shortest amount of time that was well known in A Empire. Unfortunately, I'm not interested in that.

Even the noncommittal receptionist, reluctant to have me leave, said.

“It was only for a short time, but thank you very much Josiah-san. I pray for your success over there.”

“Eeh!? He left the country this morning!!?”

The next day, there was a period of commotion inside the guild.
The receptionist and the chief knew about it, but Josiah and Midia didn't tell the other adventurers anything.
It was so sudden that Port and Wendy burst into tears.
Christoph said, “Even though I wanted to say thank you about Heinz’s matter,” while hanging his head
Even Heinz, who is aware that he has been taken care of, does not seem to be cheered up.

Among them, the one having the most complex feeling——was Randy.

While toying with Nanatrois’ {Wand Flower], he blurted out in boredom, “I'm starving”.
The maid, who is a familiar spirit grimoire, asked, “Would you like me to prepare a meal for you?” to which he replies with a sigh, “That’s not what I mean.”
The maid tilted her head, unsure of why.* (T/N: randy could be starving for something other than food, also, it could mean ‘someone is hungry’, it doesn’t have to be himself that’s hungry, that’s probably what he meant.)
