Chapter 31: Royal Jelly (4/4)



Chapter 31: Royal Jelly (4/4)

"Why did you do that?! Stupid!"

Ars brought them both into the Bull Hornet's lair with no problems. But the girl shouted stupid instead.

"I won't do it if I can't."

"That's not the problem!"

Ars did not understand and did not want to understand the way the young girl thought.

"Calm yourself. Let's start the work."

Bull Hornet nests do not have as many segments as normal wasp nests. It was because they lived only to serve the Queen.

For that reason, Hunter who came to harvest Royal Jelly only needed to find the segment where the Queen slept. That's where they'll find the Royal Jelly.

But Ars need not spend a lot of energy to do that. With [Value Scanner], Ars can immediately find the location of the Royal Jelly.

Elisa's legs were still limp. Especially considering that they are 30 meters above the ground. While she could barely move, the bitter man stared up sharply.

"Come on."

The man once again told Elisa to get up.

Elisa was up, but she had no idea how to follow the man.

"What are you waiting for?"

"I'm not waiting, but ..."

The man is climbing each segment to get to the top. Elisa can't do that.

'Ah, typical', thought Ars. A girl, especially a city girl, could not climb high places. Ars forced to go down again, then got closer to Elisa.

Elisa knows what Ars wants to do. "Wait-wait-wait! You want to lift me up and force to go with you, right! That won't happen again!"

Elisa became arrogant again. Ars can't stop thinking, why is Elisa so troublesome to be taken care of.

"Then what do you want? Sit here and let me harvest the honey myself?"

"No, you might mess with that precious item!"

"Then just tell me how to keep me from messing up?"

"Then what does it mean for you to recruit me?!"

Ars had felt his veins throb with emotion.

"Then, how?" asked Ars in a deep voice.

Elisa pissed Ars off. She was getting scared because there were only the two of them there.

Elisa could only think of one solution to their problem. "... back me."

"Ha?"

"Piggyback me."

"Aaahh," Ars didn't think about that.

As Elisa asked, Ars carried Elisa upstairs.

Elisa pressed her body against the back of a man seven years older than her. She felt embarrassed. She wondered what the man was thinking.

"All that sticky liquid is 5k!," Ars got excited in his heart.

They have found the section that contains Royal Jelly. Ars dismantled the segment to make it easier to move.

"So how do we do it?"

Ars took out a machete from nowhere. Elisa got surprised, but immediately thought maybe he kept it in his pants.

"Do I take everything? Or?"

"No. We just need to take the middle part. The part that is darker and looks thicker."

Ars looked at the honey blob better, and found that the center of the lump was darker, and the outside had a lighter color.

"So, I just have to take the middle part?"

"Yes, you can slice, and separate from here on out."

Elisa pointed out which part to cut. Then Ars immediately executed the command.

Their work was progressing smoothly. Elisa didn't think. She thought the cold guy she was with was hard to work with. But on the contrary, he was a straightforward man. Although Elisa also doesn't like his sometimes-careless attitude.

"Waaaaaaaaaaa!"

While they were peacefully working, suddenly Elisa heard someone screaming.

"Did you hear that?"

"Maybe we are being attacked."

"What?! Then we have to go down and help them!"

"No need. Didn't you hear that they are Bear Beast Hunters?"

"O - oh, yes."

Elisa had forgotten that. It was because Elisa had doubts about them from the start. But if they have a competent man like Ars, they must be a strong party.

On the other hand:

"Nanda! Shield!"

"Tito! Move while attacking!"

"Mooooomm!"

"All of you calm down and face the bears - wohohooo! That was so close!"

Randi and four of his men survived the attack of seven Bear Beasts. Ars and Elisa finish harvesting the Royal Jelly and prepare to go down.

Ars looked down from the nest entrance.

Below, Randi and four of his men lay on the ground, exhausted.

Ars who didn't care about that shouted, "We are finished here! I'll start dropping the two buckets of Royal Jelly! If you mess up, I'll beat you up!"

'He just said he wanted to beat up his party members?', Elisa surprised. Actually, what kind of relationship existed between the cold man in front of her and the other party members.

Ars finished lowering the two buckets filled with Royal Jelly.

"Your turn."

Elisa had her heart ready, though she was still afraid to go down.

Ars stretched out the rope that tied Elisa slowly down a few meters. But he suddenly let go of his helping hand, letting Elisa fall.

"Waaaaaaaaaaa!"

Elisa saved above the surface five meters, then dropped to the ground slowly. She sat limply on the ground, unable to stand.

"Elisa, are you okay?!"

The other party members immediately approached to see Elisa's condition. But what Elisa needs is an explanation from Ars.

"Why did you do that to me?!" shouted Elisa upstairs.

But the answer came not far from their position. "Don't protest too much. Let's start packing."

Ars was coming downstairs just as Elisa was being dropped down.

It shocked everyone because no one saw Ars come down with a rope. Except for Randi, who immediately ran to Ars.

"Don't you feel sorry for her, Ars?" asked Randi.

Elisa didn't understand. Actually, who is that cold man. Why is he acting like he's the party leader? Without being able to know the answer, they started walking home.

West Station / Downtown

Noon /

"This is your payment according to the agreement, Elisa."

Randi paid Elisa as much as [500 Cash]. The pay was quite a lot to give to a 15-year-old girl.

Elisa hesitated. "But I didn't seem to be doing anything. Is it okay for you to pay me this much? "

All Elisa did throughout the adventure was only to cast Ars a protective spell, and instructing Ars how to harvest the proper Royal Jelly, that's all.

But no one protested with that.

"Don't worry, Elisa, you've done your best."

"It is true. If you are still not satisfied, you can join us for lunch and tell us more about the Sylvia Shield Family. "

"Ooh, that's a great idea!"

Four of Randi's men try to convince Elisa. Although the intention behind it was to dig up information regarding the Sylvia Shield Family.

When Elisa confused, and four of Randi's men surrounded her, someone lifted a load from inside the cart.

Randi immediately dispersed four of his men who surrounded Elisa. Then said: "That is the payment according to the agreement. You don't need to hesitate to accept it. "

Hearing Randi's gentle words made Elisa finally calm down.

"Okay, thank you."

Elisa smiled sweetly, proud of herself.

Since they have completed their task, it's time for them to part.

"Then we part here."

Elisa turned around, walking in a different direction from her former party members. It was sad, but Elisa was doing her best with them. Tomorrow she will try to wait for the party who wants to take her on another adventure.

"Elisa!"

From behind, Randi called out to her.

Elisa turned around to find six men had started their work. Randi, the party leader who, for some reason, is close to the cold man, looked at Elisa sincerely.

"If you are willing to, do you want to come with us again tomorrow?"

Elisa startled. She did not think that the same invitation would come a second time.

Because she had been invited, she couldn't just refuse. "I'm fine, if you insist!" she replied arrogantly.

Elisa then turned around and trotted, feeling cheerful.

At the back, Ars was raving about something. "She is an arrogant brat."

"But you like her, right?"

Randi knows the tastes of his friends. One of them is a blonde-haired woman.

"I'll kill you if you say em a pedo."

"Hey-hey, I didn't say that!"

Ars would not hesitate to point his sword at Randi.

"I need her head to tell me many things. Since all of you are useless."

"You can say that when you ask me to become a substitute for your existence."

At that time, Ars's relationship with Randi is a strong dude who ordered other people to become a substitute for his existence. To put it simply, Ars does not want his identity as a strong figure to be known, because of that he becomes the shadow of Randi, who has a shining figure.

After finishing loading, the six of them immediately went to the North Hall Guild. With Randi's men waiting outside, Randi and Ars entered the Traders room.

"This time you brought a friend, Vanguard Ars."

"Yeah."
