Unexpected Story – Isekai

Now that the tiring days of selling were over, it was time for my adventure to begin. My first fantasy dream is finally starting today.

Even if I leave, Jenna and the others won't have any problems. I had prepared for every scenario. The business I have just started can finally run itself.

We plan to take an easy quest that won't take long. Because I will leave Jimmy here. I have told Celi and Jenna to look after him 24 hours. Even though it hasn't been a long relationship, I have a lot of trust in them, especially in Celi, who is very loyal to us, of course, as she is our slave.

"Are you sure you don't want to join us?"

"Yes"

"Are you sure?"

"Sure, go and leave me alone. I usually don't mind staying until the afternoon. I really want to eat bitter food now. I'm a grown man!"

"I don't think we'll return until morning"

"...Really?"

With his sweet sulking face, I still wanted to take him with me.

"...I'm sure"

"You don't seem convinced enough"

His face was still sulky, trying to make his argument.

"Don't you miss me?"

"Especially you! I hate you! Elene rotten bitch liar- eh- eww- Let me go-"

Elene pinched his cheeks until he cried.

"If anything happens, you can call Mommy as usual. Wherever and whenever you are, I will find you, okay?"

"Oww-kaey"

I guess it's okay.

**

The guild office was still as usual when we first came here. The adventurers would scramble to pick up the good quests on the notice board since morning and by now most of them had left for their missions.

I went straight to the receptionist with our IDs.

"Welcome Mrs. Myra and Miss Rose. We have been waiting for your arrival for a long time"

We had spent almost 2 months since taking the entrance test. That was long enough.

"Uh, I'm sorry. We didn't mean for it to be so late"

"I know, I know. I heard a lot about you. It seems like being an adventurer isn't a matter of money, right?"

"No, I think not. Honestly, I just want to go on adventures to gain experience"

"We don't mind that. Alright, please find your quests there and bring them here so I can take care of the paperwork. Please choose the easy ones first."

"Okay."

"If I may suggest to you, there is a quest to exterminate goblins in Nictho village. The mission is easy and the event usually appears frequently. So, there are many adventurers there who can help you. And it's not far from here"

"Is that so? Thanks for the suggestion"

We looked around on the bulletin board for interesting quests. It was really quiet here, with only the receptionist and a drunken man sitting at the bar.

Judging from his clothes, he was probably an adventurer too.

"The monster looks cool! Take this, sis! It looks cool with all these stars"

"Defeating a dragon? That's cool but you'll get killed first when you see it. Choose something easy"

"I can't read it"

"Look for ones with few stars or pictures of goblins"

I want to find a quest that interests me. Maybe goblins are suitable for beginners but I can keep them. Besides, I'm also curious what the quests here are like.

"Erdinnger grass... 100 gold per ounce!"

Among the quests, I was especially curious about this one.

The reward for each quest was 3 gold on average, and high-end quests were between 30-50 gold.

This amount of reward for one mission instantly made the others so small.

But I already knew this was an impossible mission, considering it was in the corner and a bit dusty, even though this bulletin board looked well-maintained.

I was curious about this not only for the amount but the name seemed to be in my memory.

"Hey lady, hick... that... you'll never find it"

The man who had been drunk was talking to me while pointing at this quest I was holding.

"What do you mean, sir?"

"Hick... it's been years, hick... and many people have searched for it until they got lost in the Erdinnger forest itself, hick..."

"Really?"

"That's right, ma'am. The quest is frequently selected, but it also always returned. And if you cancel it or fail then there is an additional fee for that."

Henna added to what the old man said.

"Hick... you and your gang... set up impossible quests for profit, hick..."

"Watch your mouth, Rob, or I'll kick you out"

"As usual, hick... you're fierce"

The old man then slept like nothing had happened.

"Madam, please don't take it. You can rise to silver rank with just one successful mission, don't waste it."

I was still trying to recall the thing that was bothering me.

'Erdinnger? Isn't that our forest?

'It seems so. Did you find it little man?

'Isn't Erdinnger grass in your yard?’

'You have good memory, Elene’

'It's also the grass along the road'

‘That's also true’

The grass in his yard, which was trimmed every day because it was considered weed, was apparently this expensive grass.

I picked up a lot of materials in the forest too, but I threw away the one with the name Erdinnger because I saw a lot of it there. I thought it was a market material that wasn't rare.

"100 gold!"

‘Why don't I just bring the whole forest back to this place!’

With the two papers I took from the bulletin, I went straight to the receptionist to apply for the mission.

"Can I choose two?"

"Huh? I warned you"

"Can I?"

I was excited to take this mission. It's not that I underestimate it. It's just that I might be very lucky myself.

As for the golden goblins, others had trouble finding them, while I had already slaughtered them for their rich loot.

"...You can. Because this one I suggested is the main quest and the search mission is the side job. But are you sure about this? Aren't you afraid of getting lost in the forest?"

"Do you still remember where I came from? It was in that forest"

"After seeing your expression, you probably know something about it. I wish you success, but return safely, ma'am. I will try to talk to the superiors if you fail. I'm doing this because you helped Celi"

"I am also grateful to you Henna. I hope this works"

'It must have success!'

Before we went out to prepare for the mission, a young man, possibly an adventurer, called out to the receptionist from the front door.

"Hot news! Shocking news! The bandit chief and his gang have been found dead in the forest! The infamous Brogo has been exterminated!"

The drunken old man who was sleeping woke up immediately upon hearing this.

"Really! Really?"

"His body turned into a zombie! I saw it with my own eyes! Yet he's still invincible!"

"If that's true maybe there was a dispute with the other bandits so he was killed"

"Hick! There's no way he was killed just like that. He's a famous bandit who is powerful and seizes a lot of treasures, hick..."

'Treasures?’

"Thank you for telling me. I'll go report first"

"Henna! Reward me with a romantic dinner!"

"Thanks anyway, maybe next time"

After that, the guild became quiet again. The young man left immediately, and the drunken man followed.

When I heard the news, I had a big smile on my face and thought of other ideas.

"Kids, we have additional plans"

"Eat first?"

"To retrieve the victory trophy that was left behind"

**

I prepared again for this trip.

From the goblin village to the Erdinnger forest is one way so we don't have to waste time making detours.

While we're in the border forest, we'll try to find the bandits' headquarters and loot everything.

I forgot about that because I had to escort the noble princess first.

Maybe we won't find anything or even have the treasure taken but I have to check first. Make sure if they really have treasures or not.

This is something that must be done because we defeated the bandits so whatever they left behind must belong to the winner.

"If you find it, just take it all. Don't leave anything behind"

"If there is an owner who knows among the things?"

"Oh..."

I forgot about that possibility.

"Don't be greedy, mom. Maybe there are people out there who are their victims, probably need it"

"You're absolutely right, my daughter. This is the first time your brain is normal"

"I'm just reminding you because you're always calculative and obsessed with treasure"

Since we will definitely be robbing the enemy later on, I have given them the rules as follows.

"Alright. In the future there are those who recognize our loot, whatever it is, if they are poor then give it to them. And if they are rich then they still have to pay, Understood?"

"That means we will now be working on taking possessions? Taking from people?"

"That's right, Rose. You just have to remember that we only rob and blackmail the bad guys"
