Chapter 26 – Water Incubus #6

It’s obvious, but I don’t intend to just move on.
I’m madly curious why Rebecca is lying next to me.
Curiosity is the greatest human need.
If I don’t hear the answer, I can’t stand it because I care.

“Rebecca.”

I waited and spoke to Rebecca when she opened her eyes.
Rising from her floor, Rebecca let out a short yawn, still sleepy.

“What.”

Perhaps it was because of low blood pressure, Rebecca’s face in the early morning was more calm than at other times.

“Why are you sleeping on the floor? You slept on the bed yesterday.”
“Never mind.”
“If you’re going to do that, you shouldn’t have given up the bed. It’s a loss if you leave it empty. Or is it that? Did you miss people’s warmth?”
“I normally prefer to sleep on the floor. In the kingdom I lived in, I lived a sedentary life. I rarely used furniture like a bed.”
“Huh…”

Rebecca making excuses for her booze like spitting in her mouth.
I couldn’t hide her laugh as I looked at her.
Anyone can see that it’s just an excuse.
To tell you the truth, maybe I wanted to sleep next to someone because I was lonely.
Unexpectedly, you feel very lonely, Rebecca.

“Quuck-cuw-cuw-cuw.”

You might mistake it for laughing.
The moment her eyebrows furrowed, she was prepared to some degree for a twinge of lust like flowing water to come out.

“…”

But Rebecca said nothing.
She just clears her throat awkwardly.
I wondered why he was acting so cautious all of a sudden, and I remembered that we had recharged our mana yesterday.
They committed an uncommon act of touching each other’s skin and teaching each other how to masturbate, and the atmosphere couldn’t help but feel awkward.

I was embarrassed and scratched my cheek.
It looks like a couple who just finished their first night.
Of course, I’ve never dated a girl, so I’ve never had a first night. According to Brain Fisal, this is the atmosphere.
It will be anyway.

“You decided to get a quest from the guild today. Let’s wash up and leave.”
“That, yes…”

I took Rebecca to her adventurer’s guild.
Rebecca seemed to calm down again as soon as she felt the fresh air outside.
As she walked to the guild she felt a bit fucked up.
After resting for a few days, I went to work, so I got a different world-style Monday sickness all over my body.
During my daily work, I just go to work without thinking, but if I go out after a long break like this, I can’t help but feel a deep sigh.

‘I have to work.’

I just want to make a U-turn on my way to work and go back to the inn.
I just want to lock myself in the corner of my room and just practice her magic.
I muttered as I let out a sigh.

“Why do humans have to work…?”
“You’re not a human, you’re a dreamer, Luke.”
“Because I’m a dreamer, I just want to sleep without working. Yes, I’m a baby dreamer.”
“Crazy man-. Why are babies crying?”

Rebecca slipped away from me in a cold sweat.
She gave her notice, but she didn’t care about that.
I only expressed the resentment that was welling up in my heart through babbling. If I were to be reborn, it would be okay to live forever as a mite.
Or the house cat of a wealthy woman.

After a while, Rebecca and I arrived at the Adventurer’s Guild.
As always, the guild at this time was crowded with people.
I tried to get a quest at the recruitment center like last time.
A recruitment center on the second floor of the guild building.
I thought it would be nice if another client like Lily appeared.

“Are you going to the recruitment center again? Aren’t you using the reception desk?”
“Quests are originally the taste of choosing with my own hands.

After all, I thought it would be better to choose the quest myself.
There’s also a special spec called magic, so there’s no way you’re blindly filtered out.
I tried to go up to the second floor of the building with Rebecca.
Just then, there was a voice calling me from afar.

“Luke! You’re here!”

It was Wendy who called me with a refreshing voice.
She got up from the reception desk and was waving her hand in my direction.
Every time she moved her arms, her bursting breasts swayed wildly.
Reflexively, she fixed her gaze on Wendy’s bust morphing.

It’s such a big chest today.
Isn’t it shaking like that and the button burst?

“Hey…”

Rebecca said as I looked at the wobbly breast.

“Hey. Why don’t you look at people’s faces and look at their chests?”
“I can’t help it because it’s an incubus.”
“Under…”

Wendy was gesturing for her to come this way.
Since it was a request from the receptionist in charge, I felt I had to go at least to keep my loyalty.
Reluctantly, I decided to send Rebecca upstairs first.

“Go to the recruitment center first. I’ll follow you. I think Wendy has something to say to me?”
“Anyway-“

Rebecca snorted and went upstairs first.
Am I being pathetic for digging into a woman’s breast?
But you can’t help it.
How could I look away from Big Breasts far away?
I approached Wendy while muttering inwardly.

“What happen?”

Wendy made her fuss as soon as she saw me.

“I hear you, Mr. Luke! I heard you can use magic?”

All in all, Wendy brought up her magic story.
Did I ever tell Wendy the story of her magic?
I thought about it, but I don’t remember anything like that.
Because she was stuck in an inn for a few days, her guild didn’t even show a peephole.
But Wendy was amazingly aware of the change she had made in me.

“How did you know? I used magic.”
“Ah, I can’t help but know. Luke-sama did a splendid job at the recruiting center. They say he killed one of the bronze adventurers with magic-.”
“Oh, that bastard.”

It reminds me of a swordsman who opened the makgora a while ago.
What was your name Le? I don’t remember her well, but she’s a Hogu bastard who dedicated a longsword to me anyway.
I suddenly felt uneasy and asked Wendy.

“But am I okay? We had a duel at the recruitment center. Aren’t the high-ranking people in the guild accusing me of causing a commotion?”

It was the custom of the Midgard Continent to make a decision with a Makgora, but that was the story of the common people.
I thought that those of a higher rank might have a slightly different perspective on the disturbance I caused.

“It’s okay-. If you’re a street janitor, you might not know, but Luke-sama is a wizard. There’s never been a warning from the top. If there was, I, the receptionist in charge, would have taken care of it.”
“Because you’re a wizard?”
“Yes, wizards are a valuable resource for the adventurer’s guild. Wizards who work as adventurers are rare, and there is a lot of demand from clients. There are many people who prefer wizards even though they don’t know much about magic-. In the guild, There’s no way you treat Luke carelessly.”
“Even though I can use that magic, my skills are terrible. The number of spells that can be used is still small.”
“Most of the magicians who do not belong to the Mage Tower are like that. They must have learned magic without a proper teacher. Even so, there are many clients who will take you even if you have a small complaint. At least it’s better than common swordsmen.”
“That’s right. I’m better than the swordsmen.”

I agreed with Wendy’s words.
Even if I were a client, I would choose a magician rather than a swordsman. Because when a magician raised a sword, that was a swordsman.
Prosecutors who have a needlessly large job population always have to compete fiercely with dealers with the same specifications.
On the other hand, wizards were a blue ocean.
There are so few people that they are treated as rare animals.

Suddenly, Wendy asked me in a low voice.

“But Luke… When did you start learning magic? You weren’t far from magic until a few weeks ago.”
“Of course, I learned it a while ago. I didn’t hide my strength. An old man in the forest taught me. Thanks to that, I was able to learn basic magic.”
“Old man…? You mean you got a chance?”

She said yes, she said.
To tell the truth, she learned magic from the book the old man handed her.
It was difficult to give a straightforward explanation of the eccentric book.
A spellbook that spews out new magic spells as time passes.
Not only was it not easy to believe something like that, but it was difficult to really believe it. Thieves with an eye on them might steal the book.

I haven’t talked about the book to others for a while.
I have never introduced a book to my party member Rebecca.

“It’s great! It’s a pleasure to see the adventurers I’m in charge of grow.”

Fortunately, Wendy seemed to believe me without thinking.

“From now on, I am a wizard. I think I will be able to introduce good requests to Luke as well. There are many clients who ask me to introduce them to wizards. I can give it to you!”
“So you’re saying you weren’t the receptionist until now?”
“It can’t be helped. Asking incubus adventurers for work is really hard. Don’t be too upset that I’ve only given you trash requests. I really picked and chose them for you.”

I had no intention of blaming Wendy.
I knew very well that she tried to take care of me.
Every time she was asked to dispose of a corpse, she internally cursed at her as a bitch, saying that only her breasts were huge.
Let’s put that aside from today.
A beautiful receptionist with big breasts and a kind personality.

“Luke-nim! So today I have a quest I want to introduce…!”
“I don’t.”
“Yes?”
“Ah, sorry… Wait a minute PTSD came…”

I apologized with an embarrassed expression.
When I heard that there was a quest to be introduced, the words that I didn’t want to do it reflexively came out.
So far, the only quests Wendy introduces are corpse cleaning and cleaning the disgusting sewer.

But will it be different today?
I looked at Wendy with a smile.

“What kind of quest is it?”
“Dead body…”
“I’m not doing it, damn it.”
“I was joking. I’m sorry if I offended you.”

Wendy put on her straight face and she opened her mouth with a serious expression.

“It’s a quest to escort the upper ranks to the trading city. The merchant who entrusted the request is looking for a wizard.”
“Guest escort quest? Doesn’t that take a while? A long-term quest that takes several months, but…”
“It’s okay. It’s a quest that ends in about ten days. It’s a round trip, so when the quest is over, you should be able to return to Yoensuu. When you return, you don’t have to pay for a carriage.”
“Ten days? Sounds like a good period.”
“The compensation is a whopping 6 silver! You can get a total of 6 silver by treating the daily wage as 60 copper. Because Luke is a wizard, he is rated higher than other adventurers.”
“6 silver…”

It was a large amount, but I did not accept it without thinking.
Isn’t there a saying to knock on a stone bridge?
Over the past two years, I have participated in an escort quest at the upper level only once. It’s one of the few party quest experiences in my life.
At that time, I thought that the escort request was just a waste of time or honey, but when I actually experienced it, it was completely different.

Endless march.
It is to continue marching until the quest is over. Even when I was a sergeant at the end of the army, I used all sorts of tricks to get out of the march somehow. Besides, you have to stand up for a fucking vigil at night. It’s a vigil after mother.

“Hmm.”

I was troubled for a while.
In my mind, I weighed the 6 silver and the guild escort quest.
Still, 6 silver is a lot of money. If you earn it once, wouldn’t it be useful?
Rebecca, a member of the party, also seemed to need money to adjust her equipment.
In the end, I was inclined to make money.

“Okay. By the way, is there a spot left for that quest? There’s a fixed party.”
“Of course! You’re talking about Rebecca. We’ve reserved a place for her.”
“I’m skilled, and my party members are first-timers, isn’t it okay? The guild escort commissioned experience.”
“It’s a fixed party for magic love, but no one cares about that.”

Suddenly, it looked like I had put Rebecca on a quest.

“I’ll give you a wooden plaque, so go to the south gate this afternoon. There should be a cart wagon with a similar mark on it.”

Wendy handed over two wooden tablets engraved with her mark.
I took her wooden plaque and went upstairs to find Rebecca. It was a crowded recruitment center, but Rebecca was easily noticed among them.
It gives off a dirty smell unique to newbies.

“I’m looking for a bronze human swordsman party! Use your sword well!

What else is the madness bomber?
Are you just copying what I said?

“Ahahahahahahahaha.”
