Following the lead of the cat-eared ninja Luna, they headed inside a bar filled with rowdy adventurers. The room was stuffy and filled with the smell of sweaty men.

「Oi. Look over there……」

「Isn't that 《Warrior God》 Luna?」

It appeared that the girl called Luna was a talented adventurer. The moment they saw her figure, the adventurers in the bar began whispering in surprise.

「Let us continue the conversation from earlier. I would like to offer you a job as the person who captured a dungeon alone.」

A short time after sitting at a table, Luna cut to the chase as she poured hot milk into a mug with one hand.

「A job……is it.」

「Yes. To tell you the truth, my home village is being troubled by ghouls abducting its members. Yuuto-san, I'll get right to the point. Will you help me with the extermination of the ghouls?」

「………Why is my power necessary? How strong is a monster such as a ghoul anyway?」

Hearing the name ghoul, he could only come up with the image of a small fry monster that appeared in the early to middle stages of a game.

「Yes, I wouldn't have to borrow Yuuto-san's power if the ghouls that appeared were normal. However, the ghouls that appeared in my home village are unnaturally strong……… They are too difficult for an ordinary adventure.」

「I see. It is a strange story.」

The monsters called ghoul that appeared in Trywide weren't much different from the image that Yuuto had, and were not a strong species. They would require some effort for a beginner to defeat them, them they won't give an experienced adventurer a difficult time. Although they could be easily defeated, they were unpopular subjugation targets as they were very repulsive.

「However, no matter how strong, a ghoul is a ghoul. The reward provided by the guild for subjugating a ghoul is a mere pittance. Because of that……I cannot stop their rampage.」

「…………」

It was a considerably real problem. Adventurers don't kill monsters as an act of kindness. No matter how much a person is troubled, they won't take action if they do not profit from it.

「So, how about it? Can you help me? Of course, it won't be free of charge. I intend to provide you with a suitable compensation once the subjugation of the ghoul is completed.」

「……I understand. I will accept your request.」

「Really!? Thank you very much!」

As Yuuto was worried, he decided to undertake Luna's request. The reasoning behind it was twofold. Firstly, he was worried about Luna's story of ghouls being strengthened unnaturally. If it was cause by a rare unique ability,  then he may be able to utilize 《Ability Plunder》 and obtain it. Not to mention his other reason, which was that Luna was a beautiful girl. If a pretty girl was in trouble, there wasn't much of a choice left for Yuuto.

「As expected of master! Come hell or high water, he becomes kind for a beautiful woman. 」

「I'm surprised! To accept a request without even listening to the details………」

「…………」

Spica and Sylphia's gaze were painful. 

「First I intent to guide Yuuto to my home village the Cait Sith Village. Lets talk about the details there.」

「Hmm……? Cait Sith Village……?」

What do you know. He had a feeling that there was a similar development before. Yuuto felt an intense sense of deja vu at Luna's words.
