Chapter 31
Seung-hyun, who left the inn in Belloto Mountain Range 1, headed for the Adventurer’s Guild.
So far, I have focused on healer quests, but now I don’t have to obsess over healer quests.
“Let’s go in.”
“okay!”
Because from today, there is a colleague who will follow you and become a patient.
The two entered the union building.
“Today, mainly for general quests…
”
As soon as I entered, the receptionist’s face hardened.
‘Request Breaker!’
As befits an Adventurer’s Guild employee, he didn’t lose his smile, but
he said, ‘What am I going to do again today?’
He looked at Kang Seung-hyun with very uneasy eyes. He was the man who watered Huis, the highest-ranking priest of the Ayver Church, yesterday.
“hello.”
Either way, Kang Seung-hyun smiled softly and said hello. The receptionist opened his mouth with a business smile.
“Why did you come here…”
“Today, I came to receive an ordinary request.”
“yes?”
“It means that you don’t have to be so vigilant because you didn’t come here today to ask for a healer.”
Seunghyun Kang proudly headed to the general request board. The receptionist was slightly relieved and continued talking.
“Ah yes… bring the request you want and we will take care of it right away.”
A great union employee who never loses his professionalism in any situation. She smiled again and prepared to accept the request.
‘Kang Seung-hyun can’t use heels, but he’s a pretty skilled adventurer…’ The
Adventurers Guild also recognizes Kang Seung-hyun’s skills. It’s bad as a healer, but it’s great as an adventurer.
“What the hell are you doing, sir, that’s why the receptionist’s expression is like that?”
Kim Ho-jung, who was glancing at the receptionist, whispered.
“It’s something the Adventurers’ Guild would hate.”
Seunghyun Kang replied calmly.
“Anything you hate?”
“Headquarters subsidy cut.”
The Adventurer’s Guild in each village receives subsidies from the headquarters in the center of the Azul Continent. If the request success rate is high, a bonus is received, and if the request failure rate is high, the subsidy is reduced.
So, no matter what happens, I try to make the request successful, but…
“Since I came to Hind Village, the cancellation rate for healer requests has increased tremendously, so the Adventurer Guild will go crazy.”
It’s not like they’re committing a crime, but they’re legally eating candy.
This is why union employees get nervous when they see Kang Seung-hyun. Because the request was canceled whenever he visited.
“You’re trembling.”
Kim Ho-jeong nodded in admiration.
Actually, there is no problem as long as you accept Kang Seung-hyun as a healer, but they say that they can’t do that even if they die.
“So, let’s proceed with the request in the normal way today.”
“Do you have any requests to do?”

The two headed to the general request board.
While examining the written request, there was a word that stood out.
{Belloto Mountain Range}
The Belloto Mountain Range is the area leading to the eastern exit of Hind Village. True to its name, there are mountains large and small, and mountain beasts and monsters inhabit it.
“This is a request for the Bellotto Mountains, and that is also a request for the Bellotto Mountains….”
The Bellotto Mountains are a place that cannot be left out of the people around here. This is because you can get all kinds of materials, such as animal skins and herbs, as well as food.
In particular, the ingredients for Bellotto raspberry mead, a specialty of Hind Village, can only be obtained in the Bellotto Mountains. It’s not for nothing that ‘Belotto’ is added to the name.
“Today, there are a lot of requests from the Velotto Mountains.”
“They say the number of monsters has skyrocketed.”
The Veloto Mountains are a necessary place for the people here, but it was also a good place for monsters to live.
“That’s why our Adventurer’s Guild periodically announces a cleanup request.”
A sales spirit that never misses an opportunity. The receptionist who was watching from behind quietly intervened.
“Now is the peak period for monsters in the Veloto Mountains.”
When the number of monsters surged, the adventurers had to deal with it. Otherwise, the villagers would not be able to enter the mountain.
“This season, you can use the base camp set up by the Adventurers Guild.”
A base camp that only operates during monster surges. Now it operates in the middle of the Velotto Mountains.
“When you receive or receive a new request, you can go to the union staff at the base camp. Very comfortable, right?”
Base camps are equipped with simple amenities including lodging and shops. Thanks to this, there is no need to go back and forth to the village.
“If you are looking for a job or are interested in the task of clearing monsters… You can also read the request form here…” The
receptionist said this and quietly handed out the clearing request form.
“The sweep request is good. I will take the order.”
“I agree! How annoying it is to go to and from town!”
There is nothing to worry about. The two received the request without hesitation.
“The order has been confirmed.”
The receptionist stamped the request of the two. The white request form was stained blue.
-“Welcome to camp halfway up the Veloto Mountains! My name is Barcelo!”
And two hours later, Kang Seung-hyeon and his party arrived at the base camp in the Velotto Mountains.
“Oh, it’s a base camp, it has everything. There is even a bathroom.”
It used to be a place with nothing but trees, but now it looks like a small village with fences, bonfires and all kinds of tents.
“How much work did the staff have to do to install something like this in one day?”
“I installed it in one day, so shouldn’t it have worked for a day…?”
The base camp was as crowded as the village. Adventurers who came to work caught my eye among the busy union employees.
“I start by looking for the request board. Mr. Barcelo, where is the bulletin board?”
“It is over here.”
Kang Seung-hyun approached the request board. There was a bulletin board that looked just like the one in the village.
{You will be rewarded according to the number of monsters you caught.}
The content of the quest was simple.
A form of receiving a reward every time you catch a certain number of monsters in the Veloto Mountains. Of course, you have to bring the remains of the monster to acknowledge it.
“There may not be many monsters on the western road you came from, but there are plenty of monsters on the other side. Prepare thoroughly.”
Taking Barcelo’s advice, the two went out of the camp.
[Summons Freea’s crossbow.]
Kang Seung-hyeon summoned the crossbow and Kim Ho-jeong drew out his sword.
rustle.
As Barcelo said, it wasn’t long after I left the camp, but I felt the presence of the monster.
PABABABAK!!
The monster appeared with the sound of digging the ground. It is a mole-type monster with hard and sharp claws.
“Is it an iron mole?”
It looked similar to a stone mole, but its claws were made of shiny metal.
“Nothing. Let’s deal with it.”
Kang Seung-hyun put a fistful of stones that had been rolling on the floor into his inventory.
[Fria’s bond pouch]
[Generates stone arrows]
As soon as I pulled the trigger on the crossbow, 5 stone arrows were fired.
Papababat!!
The stone arrow lightly pierced the body of the iron mole. After being hit 5 times in a row, the iron mole’s body turned into a rag in an instant.
‘It’s an arrow made hastily with a stone I picked up on the road, but the damage is good.’
As expected, the performance was excellent as it was not an ordinary weapon.
[Fria’s bond pouch]
[Generates a stone arrow.]
Parbat!!
Seunghyun Kang continued to pull the trigger.
The iron mole couldn’t even approach and was knocked down by the arrow.
‘This is a ranged attack, so it’s good. The [incision] was uncomfortable.’
To use [Cut], you must approach the opponent. It’s a troublesome skill because you have to get very close to activate it.
But [Fria’s Crossbow] doesn’t have that inconvenience.
Papababak!
Seunghyun Kang pulled the trigger with a satisfied face.
Pak!
Finally, stab the Iron Mole through the forehead for a confirmed kill.
Kang Seung-hyun took care of the iron mole without brushing a single collar.
‘Basic damage is fine. Easy supply of arrows. It could be useful if I spin the roulette to improve performance.’
It was the moment Kang Seung-hyun was about to pull the trigger.
[Fria’s bond bag]
[There is no ‘stone’ in the inventory.]
‘Is there a skill that automatically picks up stones?’
Kang Seung-hyeon bent down to pick up stones to replenish his arrows.
rustle!
Just then, an iron mole came out from behind Kang Seung-hyeon. It seems that he hid in the ground to avoid the arrow.
The iron mole swung its claw at Kang Seung-hyeon, but said,
“Where!”
Kim Ho-jung jumped out and blocked the attack with his body.
‘It’s worth taking a colleague.’
Kim Ho-jeong looks like a wizard wearing glasses and a robe, but she doesn’t know how to use magic at all. I know how to do it.
‘First of all… it’s a tank. I’m weak right now.’
Shaak!
“Ugh!”
The iron mole’s metal claws clawed Kim Ho-jung’s arm. Kim Ho-jeong frowned and tried to take out the potion.
“Don’t worry about your stamina.”
Kang Seung-hyeon aimed his crossbow at Kim Ho-jung.
[Pria’s Bond Pouch]
[Generates medium health potion arrows.]
Papat!
The health potion arrow flew towards Kim Ho-jung. The moment the arrow pierced the body, the lost physical strength was restored.
“ah! It did!”
“Leave the pitong to the healer and just do what you used to do.”
You can now replenish your stamina from a distance. Just pull the trigger of the crossbow, and the health recovery arrow will fly.
[+3]
As a bonus, it was also confirmed that whenever Kim Ho-jung’s stamina is filled, points come in with a certain probability.
‘Additional points as the effect of the soul crystal.’
2 points in addition to the minimum of 1 point. It’s random, but you can earn 3 points each time Kim Ho-jung’s stamina is filled.
‘It’s very small compared to proper treatment, but at this rate, I’ll be able to collect 5000 points in no time.’
Seunghyun Kang was satisfied and pulled the trigger.
“Really comfortable! It was annoying to eat the potion!”
Fu-wook!
After recovering his physical strength, Kim Ho-jeong swung his sword and cut the iron mole.
“But how come you’re still sick?”
“That’s right, it’s an arrow made from a health potion.”
Stamina potions are items that only replenish lost stamina. Using this does not mean that the wound will heal, so the pain remains the same.
“I’ll treat your wounds at once after the battle.”
“Yes, yes. Let’s get rid of it and see you!”
Kim Ho-jung pulled aggro from the front, so Kang Seung-hyun in the back was able to shoot arrows comfortably. Occasionally one or two burrowed and popped out, but
Paba Babat!!
Lightly dealt with 5 stone arrows.
-“I think you caught everything? Are there any more?”
“I didn’t see it.”
“Then rest.”
After 40 minutes, the two wiped out all the nearby iron moles.
Beep beep!
Kang Seung-hyeon took out a stamina potion and drank it. Actually, you can shoot stamina arrows at your body, but arrows don’t taste anything when they get hit.
“Now what? I think I caught all the mobs around here.”
“We dried the seeds.”
“Shall we go back to camp?”
For the clearing quest, you must take the monster corpse to receive the reward. This is because it is not displayed anywhere every time you catch a monster like in a game.
“It’s right in front. I think the inventory will explode soon.”
At this point, I think we should go back to camp. Inventory is important.
“I didn’t come all the way here to catch these mobs anyway.”
“That’s right…. rather than an iron mole, a belloto mountain dog or a rock tusk boar… These guys will give you a lot of rewards.”
In fact, monsters that appear during the day or evening are generally unremarkable. If you are looking for a good reward, you should aim for the night time zone.
“Then, let’s take care of dinner together.”
“It’s good!”
The two returned to camp in preparation for a night sweep.
