Jikuu Mahou chapter 388: The first quest
What Hilda saw in the back of the forest was.......
『Kyaa! Somebody help me～!』
A little girl had been attacked by a goblin!
『【Fireball】!』
Hilda's [Fire magic] explodes. Very big.
The goblin, who was hit by the fireball, raised a cry and became like a roasted pig.
The girl who was about to be attacked was stunned when she saw the roasted goblin in front of her eyes. The relief is fleeting, as the fire has moved to the trees in the forest.
『Not good!』
Hilda managed to put the fire out with her magic. It is dangerous to use fire magic in a forest.
『Are you alright?』
Hilda, who finished putting out the fire, calls out to the girl.
『Uwaah』
The girl might have been very scared as she embraced Hilda. Hilda is trying to soothe the girl by patting the head.
Oh, this girl has cat ears and a cat tail.
「What? Isn't this Minnya-chan?」
Elena who was watching the image which moved to the television calls out.
Who's Minnya? Oh, yeah!
She lives in the Church of the capital!
When I first explored the city of this world with Elena, I was able to give her money. Hilda isn't stroking her cat ears.
『Ti, Ticklish～』
The frightened Minnya-chan seems to have calmed down considerably.
However, the appearance of a little cat girl of about 10 years old and a little girl of 12 years old are seen.
『I'm Hilda, what's your name!』
『I'm Minnya! Thanks for your help, older sister』
Hilda looks happy to be called older sister.
Because the circumference was only a senior. That? By the way, does Hilda and Minnya have no acquaintance with each other?
『Minnya-chan, why were you alone in the woods?』
『Because the herbs aren't easily found......』
『Herb? Did someone get injured?』
『Uuh, it's an adventurer's quest』
『Are you an adventurer, Minnya-chan?』
『Uuh!』
Seriously! Speaking of which, the adventurer who attacked the guild said that the number of children has increased. That was meant to Minnya-chan.
『That's why it's dangerous to go into the woods alone』
『Uh......』
Minnya-chan seems to reflect considerably and has become quiet.
『Then, let's look for the medicinal herbs together』
『Really!? But is older sister's job fine』
『It's okay. I was just doing a herb hunting quest』
『Really!? Then, we're together!!』
They went out of the forest together and resumed their collection of medicinal herbs happily.
By the way, the "Goblin's ears", which is a testament to a quest was also burnt, and could not be brought home. I was looking at the two of them for a while.
「We’re going to stop watching Hilda for a while」
「Eh? Why?」
「Wait, rustic」
「What's rustic!?」
-----
Ignoring Aya's question, I moved a few moments away from Hilda.
「So, will you do it by the time Hilda and the other girl comes」
Hilda is moving along the border between the forest and the meadow, looking for medicinal herbs. After I calculated, two people are sure to pass here in a little while.
First of all, I look at the surroundings.
After a while, I found a place where immature medicinal herbs are gregarious.
「All right, here's a nice neighborhood」
I quickly remove weeds and other trees that were not medicinal herbs. And, I slowly take out a magic stone of earth magic and the power is used. This [Magic stone of earth magic] is the one I used to defeat the Golem where "Earth spirit" was confined in the basement of the tower of the sunrise and obtained.
There is an effect to promote the growth of the surrounding plants. Immature herbs grow fast and become matured herbs.
「Oh, it's almost time that Hilda comes」
I hurried back to my home.
-----
「Mou! What were you doing, Nii-chan? Let's see Hilda's appearance quickly!」
Aya is angry. Elena seems to be worried about Hilda, although she doesn't speak.
They're all worried. On TV Hilda's appearance is reflected......,
『Amazing! So many herbs!!』
Hilda and Minnya were overjoyed to find so many medicinal herbs.
「Nii-chan....... This, is it Nii-chan’s work?」
「Wh, What is it～」
Am I a little overprotective?
Aya's gaze hurts. Well, it's the first day of being an adventurer, so it's a little better.
『Nothing can be put in the bag anymore～』
The bag that Minnya brought was a herb bag.
『I have enough, too』
『Yes!』
They finished the herb collecting and went home.
『Hey, Hilda-oneechan. You were taking a lot of medicinal herbs together, right? So why is elder sister's luggage so little』
『It's because of this』
Hilda shows her the bracelet.
『Bracelet』
『Yes. This is a magic item called 【Storage bracelet】that let you store a lot of things』
『Wowww!』
Minnya-chan had sparkling eyes.
-----
After a while, the two came back to the Adventurer's Guild.
『Minnya-chan, it's amazing. There are 30 bunches of medicinal herbs, so today's reward is...... 100 gold and 10 points for the guild point. Now the total of your guild points is 17 points. You can go up to E rank soon』
『Yess!』
Because she isn't able to reach the reception table, Minnya-chan is very excited to stand on a chair that she had brought from the other reception table and receives the rewarded 100 gold coins from the receptionist.
『Hilda-san......oh, wow! Since the herb is 60 bundles, the reward is 200 gold and the guild points 20 points. You've earned 20 points, so you are promoted to E rank! Congratulations』
『Thank you very much』
Promoted on the first day? Well, it's natural if it was Hilda.
Hilda, who received two hundred gold coins from the receptionist, showed a big smile.
