Chapter 252 – So When Will We Go Down to the Labyrinth? (3)
The job of adventurer is naturally close to ‘individual’.
Although he belonged to a group called the Adventurer’s Guild, it was only an interest group, and in reality, it was nothing more than a gathering of individuals.
-Do you think the Infinite Labyrinth would run properly without the Adventurer’s Guild?
-As adventurers risk their lives and fight in the Infinite Labyrinth, the economy of this continent is revitalized!
-What? War? We are the people who came to conquer the Infinite Labyrinth, not to participate in the war!
No matter how many fantasy stories portray adventurers as those who step out to protect the village from attacks by monsters, the adventurers of this world ignore the Permaton in the face of war.
And the cost of that neglect was terrible.
“Luge Permaten has gone crazy! He has declared all-out war against the Adventurer’s Guild!”
“Huh? What do you mean by that suddenly?”
“Look at this!”
An angry adventurer spread a poster he had picked up from the street on the desk.
“Ugh? What is this? We are recruiting knights to conquer the Infinite Labyrinth…? Ha, you’re just a knight, you’re just an adventurer, right?”
“What is this? Isn’t it just Rouge Permaton catching a new female demon and trying to fuck her?”
People who heard the news were not very interested at first.
“So why are you letting me fuck a succubus? Hehe.”
No matter how many knights a man named Rouge Permaten recruited, it was not a very important part of their lives.
“You idiot! It’s not a day job! It’s formal employment!”
“…What?”
It has become important.
Rather than just hiring a large number of adventurers as an event, it was a different story to try to ‘recruit’ them as people from Fermaten.
“So you’re officially gathering adventurers in Fermaten now?”
Instead of simply hiring an adventurer as a guide, do you hire people directly from Permaten to explore the labyrinth?
“What kind of crazy thing is this?! Fermatn itself writes adventurers? Crazy!”
“We can’t do this! If we do business directly in Fermaten, what are we going to eat for a living?”
“They’re not going to monopolize the area in the Infinite Labyrinth! They’re taking all the sweet spots and driving us into dangerous places! The Infinite Labyrinth has already become dangerous, but we’re the only ones being pushed into dangerous places! ! And we’re all going to go out and die!”
A picture is drawn.
There is a future in which adventurers belonging to the Permaton will act territorially, rather than territorially, and discriminate against people in the adventurer guild.
“They will definitely raise taxes, right? That will happen. They will implement discriminatory policies against those who belong to the Adventurer’s Guild!”
“Are you going to just do that? Are they going to discriminate against adventurers from the entrance in the future? Those who aren’t part of the Fermaton won’t even be able to enter the Infinite Labyrinth!”
“How do you hire so many adventurers in Fermaten?”‘
“I don’t know! I’m sure they’ll do something with the money they saved from selling the succubus! Should we care about Fermatn’s money now?! We should be concerned that Fermatn is trying to kill the Adventurer’s Guild!! “
I’m in an emergency.
If things continue like this, the Adventurer’s Guild’s superior status is in danger of being taken away.
“S-how can you really go that far? Everyone calm down…”
“What do you mean? Since the receptionist is a woman, she would be able to get a job right away if she went to Permaten, but that’s not true because we are men!”
“Ugh… Are you trying to recruit sluts too? Just because they are women doesn’t mean they discriminate against virgins and non-virgins, right?”
“Oh, I’m going crazy. Luge Permaten, I don’t know what conditions this crazy person will put forward, but he really makes people go crazy.”
It may be said that this is an exaggerated thought, but people who have seen Rouge Permaten’s eccentricities, which are not his eccentricities, could not decide what he was thinking.
“Where did Guild Leader Bernhard go?! Damn, what I was worried about ended up happening!”
“No, what is this? Wouldn’t it be good for us to officially hire adventurers from Fermaten?”
“You idiot! Why is that a good thing? They are blatantly planning to start us!”
“What is your plan? Are you planning to find a virgin and prey on her in order to recruit adventurers?”
The adventurers were in confusion.
Some people, looking at Luge Permaten’s actions his so far, predicted that it was just a means to prey on female adventurers.
Someone predicted that they would devour the Adventurer’s Guild and then use the adventurers as soldiers to win wars with other territories.
Some people interpreted this as an ambition to eliminate the very existence of the Adventurer’s Guild and proceed directly with the Infinite Labyrinth raid in Fermaten.
“Either way, it’s natural for adventurers to divide. Look at their weekly wages.”
“Why the weekly salary? The weekly salary…10,000 gold?!”
Not a monthly salary, but a weekly salary.
Amazing hospitality, even worth 10,000 gold.
“Wow, they still give you this much money?”
Considering that a guard’s salary was slightly less than 20,000 gold per month, 10,000 gold per week was a truly extraordinary allowance.
“Ha. Whose nose should I put 10,000 gold on?”
For those who wish to work as a professional.
“We are people who can easily earn 100,000 gold at a time if we play Infinite Labyrinth, so why do we have to join Fermaten and work while earning only 10,000 gold a week?”
There was no attractive advantage for adventurers who were earning more money than the amount offered by Permaten.
Unless you pay at least two or three times as much in Permaton, becoming an adventurer in Permaton is practically no different from donating your talent and life.
“I mean, I’m a person who easily earns 10,000 gold a day just by going below the 30th floor. But what? Weekly pay? Tell me to suck my mom’s milk.”
“Who? The Countess?”
“If you say that rashly these days, you get caught?”
“Did I say something wrong? Haha!”
Most people ignore the conditions laid down by Rouge Permaten.
“…I’m on the 10th floor, so that’s a different story. This has nothing to do with ability, right?”
“Wouldn’t it be great if we gave this much to people who are connected to the coal mining area? Doesn’t this mean we’ll give 10,000 gold a week just to the miners?”
“No matter what, I’ll give you 10,000 gold, but you’ll only order miners. I’ll order other things too.”
“But wouldn’t it be beneficial to earn 10,000 gold while doing that?”
And there were some who began to prepare income statements seriously.
“This won’t work.” Let’s go to Permaten right away and talk!”
In the end, in order to calm this confusion, I had to go to Permaten Castle and talk to them in person –
“Are you going? You know that the pimps went to Fermatten and all the brothels were cut down that day, right?”
“Luge Permaten is a man who throws a fit at the slightest offense. He is a madman.”
“Isn’t this perhaps a pretext for the Adventurer’s Guild to invade? Isn’t this a sophisticated ploy to get any of us to argue with him?”
No one dared to visit Permaten Castle in person.
“Damn it. Is this person doing this because he’s upset that the adventurers didn’t help him in his battle for territory?”
The moment when everyone tilted their heads and said ‘No way’ at what someone said to themselves.
Sigh.
The main gate of the Adventurer’s Guild has opened.
At the entrance, Bernhard, with the same face as usual, looked puzzled as he looked inside the frozen guild.
“Oh, here you go. Guild leader. Don’t you think so too?”
“What?”
“Isn’t it absurd to recruit knights to conquer the Infinite Labyrinth?”
“…Hmm.”
Bernhard, who returned to the guild, stood still for a while, clutching his poster in his hand.
“A strategy for conquering the infinite labyrinth…?”
As if he was contemplating something, he closed his eyes and was lost in thought.
“Oh, what’s wrong? Are you just angry? After all, you’re the guild leader. Even if you’re a Permaton, something like this is crossing the line, right? An act that divides the adventurer’s guild like this.. .”
“We are conquering the infinite labyrinth.”
“…Guild leader?”
The adventurers began to become anxious.
“Strategy…Strategy…”
Everyone who saw that the situation was seriously cautiously approached the guild leader, and the guild leader held the poster tightly in his hand and headed toward the guild leader’s room.
“Guild leader?! What are you doing now?!”
Then, he took off his nameplate in front of the guild leader’s office with his own hands.
“No, what are you doing?!”
“Adventurer retired.”
Kwaduk!
Bernhard reached into him, breaking his nameplate with his own hand.
Ujijijik.
The moment I reached for something shiny between the wooden walls and pulled it back, the temporary wall broke and a huge double-edged ax appeared inside.
“Every time I get older and die, something interesting happens. LOL.”
“Now, wait a minute. Guild leader…? You’re not trying to become a Permaton person, are you?”
“It’s been a while since my blood boiled as an adventurer, and I can’t sit still.”
Bernhard carried the double-edged ax on his shoulder and looked out the front door.
“Hmm… “
“Oh, look at that!”
Ten armored knights walking down the street.
Five knights in black light armor and five knights in white heavy armor boasted sophisticated beauty.
“Could it be that that is the new armor worn by the knights of Fermaten…?”
“It might be a little bit amazing…?”
“Hmph. What’s the point of armor like that that’s not even practical?”
The moment when people’s eyes were swept by the armor.
Knights wearing armor and patrolling the streets suddenly pounded their chests with their fists.
Weeeing.
“What… ?”
“From the armor…Light?”
Paaaaat.
Light began to twinkle on both the black armor and the white armor.
That light was clearly the light of man.
“Crazy. “You smashed the magic stone into the armor?”
“It looks like Permaten has completed full-scale preparations.”
Bernhard left the adventurer’s guild and posed with a slightly awkward expression.
“I, Bernhard, will become a knight of Fermatten!”
One day later.
Knight Bernhard began walking around the streets wearing armor that sparkled with light.
