To Deprive a Deprived Person

Chapter 122

(edited by BigYoshi)


Inside the Comer city Adventurer’s Guild, Mofisu is sitting at the guild master room and sorting through the doc.u.ments that is piled up on top of the desk like a mountain while grinning.


“Why do I feel bad every time I see you grinning?” (Edda)


Edda comes, pours out some more tea into the cup that had become empty and placed another pile of doc.u.ments on the desk afterwards.


“Why? There is nothing wrong here. I am just feeling happy, thanks to the potion my hair is growing nicely.” (Mofisu)


Mofisu is now looking at his head using a mirror that is placed on top of the desk. He is grinning happily while looking at his growing hair but his grin is unpleasant.


“Also, can you tell me who the person that brought back materials and items from 「Enrio of Kusakai」 dungeon is?”(Edda)


Recently, there had been large amounts of material and items from 「Enrio of Kusakai」 dungeon delivered to the guild for appraisal. It was normal if it was gathered from a monthly dungeon raid however the amount of materials was sent on regular basis and the amount was enormous. Even for big clans, in Comer city only the ‘red meteor’ clan is able to gather such number but they won’t be able to do it continuously like what has happened. Since the items were always dropped and delivered to the adventurer’s guild by a merchant group so Edda and the rest doesn’t know who sent it except for the guild master.


“Hmm, for that matter, I couldn’t tell you who that person is.”(Mofisu)


“Why?”(Edda)


“Because I have made a promise.”(Mofisu)


“Hmph!”(Edda)


Edda then sent a deadly glare at Mofisu. Mofisu felt a little bit guilty and awkward in a hurry cleared his throat and resumed his work in sorting out doc.u.ments.


“Speaking of which, guild master, do you know who planted the flowers in the garden?”(Edda)


Hearing that, Mofisu’s hand moved in a rigid motion as some of the doc.u.ments fell to the ground.


“Oh dear, is there something wrong Oji-chan?”(Edda)


“N-n-n-no… and I am not an Oji-chan!”(Mofisu)


Edda then helped Mofisu to pick up the doc.u.ments but when they crouched down, Mofisu always avoided eye contact with Edda. His sweat was also dropping faster.


“I was just curious that someone suddenly planted flowers in the garden. I always thought that the garden lacked something and actually it was flowers. Do you know who planted it? Was it some bored children? But I agree having more plants in the garden is a good thing.”(Edda)


“Yeah, if you say so, indeed it is a good thing.” (Mofisu)


“Alright then, I won’t disturb you any longer.”(Edda)


After that Edda left the guild master room while giving a polite bow. Mofisu then sunk deep in his chair as he let out a deep sigh.


“Fiuh… that was dangerous. That flower is the ingredient to make the potion for my hair that was given to me by Yu. I can’t let anyone know of this secret.” (Mofisu)


The flower in the garden, in fact, was planted by Mofisu. The plant was the ingredient for the hair potion. Yu had taught Mofisu how to extract the important life liquid from the petals for making the potion trough a special process. Also, because these flowers suck up more nutrients from the ground, Mofisu had been looking hard for the perfect place to plant it.


………………..


“I hope that these are enough. This is what we got.” (Nina)


Inside Wood’s workshop, Nina is covered with mud and monster blood, taking out materials and items from 「Wood garden」 dungeon on top of the work desk.


“This is all the loot that we could collect after three days inside the 「Wood garden」 dungeon. Wood-san , is this okay?” (Marifa)


“So, in these three days, how deep you go?” (Wood)


“…27th floor.” (Lena)


“When Yu was here, how deep?” (Wood)


“When Master was here, we reached the 52nd floor in two days.” (Marifa)


Marifa replied to Wood’s question in a somewhat proud manner.


“So, was Yu’s role a vanguard? Shield bearer too? What was his job?” (Wood)


“Well, Yu is our front liner, shield bearer, he is also in charge of 【White Magic】, 【Enchant Magic】, and… 【Awareness】 as in search operations I guess..” (Nina)


“…taking care of food, fire, resting place, and also night guard.” (Lena)


“My master took care of both the offense and defense at the same time, auxiliary, recovery, base making, scouts, even all of our equipment and necessities were prepared by him, including information gathering of the dungeon.” (Marifa)


Wood’s mouth was gaping open in amazement. Yu’s party was kind of abnormal and distorted. Usually each role that Yu took, front liner, shield bearer, scout, back liner, recovery, enchant, unlocking trap and mapping dungeon is divided into several people but Yu took all of those roles alone.


“So, had Yu also done things like salvaging the material? And basically he was carrying you girls on his back on a piggyback ride. Alright, just show me the material.” (Wood)


“This is all from the 「Wood garden」 dungeon.” (Nina)


“I don’t know anymore. These items are all so useless. Look, the stems of the 「Anemonoid」 are dry, the 「Dragon fly」 wings have cuts on the surface at a critical place. This 「Mad mantis」 sickle is broken, it is useless as it can’t be used unless it is in a good condition. The worst things is the state of the plants that you collected. When Yu was here, he must have been doing all this stuff for you too. I wish that he would return to a party with higher rank adventurers or even a major clan. His ability would be even more appreciated.” (Wood)


Nina wanted to deny those but what Wood said was the truth. She can only look at Woods with a bright red face and inflated cheeks. Lena could only smile wryly but didn’t say anything. Marifa as usual didn’t show any facial expression or emotion, only her ears were twitching.


“Alright, alright, next time, I will work harder to show to Wood-san that I deserved the items that Yu entrusted to you.” Nina then goes out from the shop after saying that.


Yu really wanted to give the girls the equipment, but Woods now realized how the girls were too dependent on him and wanted to change it. He wanted to make the girls grow up and realized how much Yu impacted their party.


…..


A week had pa.s.sed since Nina came to Wood’s workshop. Wood’s shop is still putting up a closed sign outside however he never stopped working while wielding his hammer regardless of day or night.


“Wood-san~”


Wood stopped his work when he heard a familiar voice calling out for him.


“Oh, long time no see. I thought you had given up or ran away to Yu’s room again.”


Towards Wood’s provocation Nina didn’t really care and put up a smile.


“Wood-san, how can we do such a thing. I will never give up.” (Marifa)


“… do you want me to burn your beard?” (Lena)


“Wood-san, we have come here to prove our ability again.” (Nina)


“Ooh! So, have you learned enough that all this time you were all freeloaders and depended on Yu only? I am looking forward to whether you can convince me. Speaking of which, this beard is my life!”


Hearing Woods angry sentence, Lena quickly hides behind Nina. Nina then takes out an item bag and takes out the materials and items on top of the desk.


“This… oh…”


From the item bag Nina took out monster’s material one by one. At this time, all of the monster parts were treated with care, if it was brought to the adventurer’s guild, it could fetch a good price. Half-moon flower, honey sap, rose stem, all of the loot were in a perfect condition.


“Ehehe~ so what do you think about this?”


“Fufufu… fuwahahaha! I can’t believe that you girls really managed to do it. Alright, wait here!”


Wood then moved to the back of the shop while still laughing. Meanwhile Nina and the girls are looking at each other and smiled.


……….


“Fufufufu~ Flowers-chan, I wonder how you are doing today?”


Mofisou is smiling like crazy as he is moving towards the garden where he planted his flowers.


“WWHAAATT!!”


“Guild master, why are you being so loud? Your voice might kill the plants.”


“Wha-wha-wha… Edda, what is that flower that you planted?”


“It’s mint. It is a relatively easy plant to grow as it’s life force is strong.”


Mint is a resilient plant, even after you pull it out from the ground it can still grow for some time due to its strong fecundity. However due to it’s traits, it often expels the other flowers growing in the area near itself, which is why mint is usually grown on pots.


“Oh master, why don’t you drink tea first and relax. Oh, the flowers around it seemed to have withered. Guild master, do you know what is wrong? Guild master? Why is your complexion looking bad? Guild master… your hair, it’s falling out.”


“No, not my hair! WHUAAA!!!”


After that, Mofisu’s scream could be heard resonating all around the adventurer’s guild area. In Mofisu mind, he should really not hide anything from Edda.

(TL note: I believe the author said Marifa caught two new demon monster that’s why called of the two beast, but apparently the maokami was Coro. I was like wtf.. sorry for the confusion. Let’s see the next chapter is there any other maokami if not then let’s deal with Coro, he has evolved somehow? And his level has dropped down from 23 to 18….. wtf)
