Chapter 96. Our First Quest
Near the Adventurer’s Guild entrance, there was a large bulletin board known as the Quest Board.
.
This was where they posted the daily quest requests, and adventurers who were looking for work would regularly come to check it.
In the early morning, there w a large number of quests posted, and adventurers would gather around the board, creating a scene resembling a quest battle.
At the current time, around noon, the area in front of the board was empty.
We went there to check the posted quests.
But there were only a few left.
People probably already took the more appealing ones.
The remaining quests were things like ‘Find my missing cat. Reward: 3 silver coins’, or ‘Investigate my spouse’s infidelity. Reward: 5 silver coins’
They were the kind of requests that one would ask a specialist in monster extermination.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe rewards were so low that one would doubt if it was possible to make a living by accepting such quests.
However, adventurers also get treated as general laborers in the city, so even for quests like these, they might take them if they’re desperate enough.
But in front of the board filled with these leftovers, a person who seemed like a guild staff member arrived.
After posting a single quest request, the staff member left the bulletin board.

A quest request with such content appeared right in front of us.
By the way, the missions we haven’t completed would look something like this:
───────────────────────
Reach a city with a population of over 10,000… Experience Points Earned: 3,000
Defeat 10 goblins (0/10)… Experience Points Earned: 2,000
Clear an E-rank quest once (0/1)… Experience Points Earned: 2,000

Could this be a chance for us…?
Wait, if we don’t take this quest immediately. Will other adventurers take it?
I looked at Kazane-san and Yuzuki.
They shook their heads vigorously, leaving the decision to me.
Oh well, whatever!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI peel off the quest request form and pick it up.
I looked around nervously. I could see some drinking adventurers in the tavern sitting back down in their chairs.
That was close.
If I had hesitated, they would have taken it.
“…I took it.”
“You took it, huh?”
“First job in another world, huh?”
There was no helping it now that I had taken it.
I held the quest request and headed to the quest reception counter.
And there, I accepted the quest.
Walz Village, which had requested this quest, was located a few hours’ walks outside the city.
Moreover, the villager from Walz Village who brought the quest request was still inside the guild and would guide us to the village.
After making the minimal preparations, we left the city, guided by the villager, and headed toward Walz Village, following the flow of events.
