Young God Divine Armaments Chapter 70

After Renya and company arrive at Suminiastar, they hardly found any free time.

For example, when the gang visits the government office to search for interesting job, the moment they are spotted looking at the list or bulletin board, it will always become like this:

“Floria-san! The restaurant in the commerce district is looking for a temporary worker!”

“Brenda-san! There’s a request coming via the magician guild to decipher an ancient doc.u.ment!”

“Elvira-san! There’s a caravan heading to Rintieze recruiting escort!”

“We got a trouble! The vice chief is running away!”

“Immediately post the request to capture the vice chief! Put it on the top priority order! The reward will be the sum of vice chief’s next week bonus!”

“Count me in too”

“You government office worker keep working on the doc.u.ment!!!”

Everyone could hear the mess happened on the side of the government worker in the middle of their request taking process but everyone acts like they don’t hear it.

After all, today marks a week after the news of war escalation between Faskurn and Ezemeria.

Many wanderers and warriors that taking base in both kingdom immediately flee after feeling the air of unrest around. As the result, the government offices everywhere are choking full with the sudden influx of people.

That’s right, there are currently chaos happened because of the overwhelming number of wanderer coming to the city.

But it was not a simple chaos happened because they can’t accommodate the refugee. After all Suminiastar is a kingdom which thrives from the major influx of newcomer from outside. At least Suminiastar is not a weak kingdom that couldn’t process the continuous amount of refugee even if they keep on coming in the span of time of a month or more.

The one that actually caused the chaos is ---- the number of request that is coming to the government office this few days that has been skyrocketing far more than the usual.

Mercenaries and other fighting cla.s.s people especially focused their migration to Suminiastar and the backlash from them doing so start appearing around the continent lately. Because the population of human, especially the fighting cla.s.s people suddenly decreased, the magic beast and monsters are left run rampant and the currently active fighting cla.s.s people can’t keep up with the thinning process. The public safety on the area around Suminiastar plummets abruptly.

Not only monster overpopulating problem, because of the large influx of immigrant in the city, the shrewder merchant look at it as an opportunity to increase their income as well and start to move even more vigorous. They put more effort in stocking up things to meet up the demand and actively recruit more hand to catch even more profit.

And the result, the number of job request that come to the government office bloat up by a few times compared to the usual number they had in peaceful time.

The government workers also can’t just simply accept the request then immediately post it to the list. If they just do that much, why bother making such intermediary agency like them?

The workers need to check the request through many divergences before the request is deemed acceptable. Some of those checks are including the credence of the requestor, the balance between the job content and payment, and other kinds of such check to ensure the profit for both requester and request taker. They are hardly an agency that would receive all kind of request without care.

But, to achieve such ideal means that the government office aims for, they would also need an adequate number of hand supporting it.

Their work aren’t only limited to receiving request, they also need to settle the request taker payment and they also need to deal with the aftermath of the request if needed. Because of that, the government office has been in the state of Full House of Grat.i.tude these last few weeks and keep on working at full force. (From the t.i.tle. It could mean the workers are giving thanks for having a full house situation from people watching their show. But in this case, even if it is grat.i.tude for the worker, it would also meant an endless h.e.l.l of jobs)

“Subjugation request should’ve been cleared day in and day out without stopping so we should reach a calm period soon but……”

“…… Around this time…… some magic beast is…… entering their active period”

“That is too…… especially insect type monsters…… would attack villages in large group…… anyway their activity become bolder”

Rebecca nods to affirm his conclusion so Renya gives her a pat in the head as his way to say thank you for telling him and turns his attention toward the bulletin board.

Even with a big influx of people in this city, the untaken request numbers are still too overwhelming.

The difficulty level of the requests can’t be even categorized as hard. Looking at the content, all the target magic beast and monsters are those that his party had already subjugate at least once on the area around the capital.

Seems like there’s no special time request like the subjugation request of a ‘monster that would appear only once in 10 years!’ or something but still, no one could just live their 24 hours by fighting monster all the time. And there’s also problem with transportation too which would waste a few days of the request taker time to reach their destination.

When he thinks that way, he could understand how the monster breeding rate could surpa.s.s the rate of their subjugation. And with the said active period as another reason, he is positive that if they could endure it for now, a peaceful time will surely come.

Then again if that peaceful time did come, then there will be problems with some adventurer unable to find any job and become penniless. But well, that problem is not for them to solve, let the kingdom wrack their brain for it as it is their job anyway. Renya would just focus his thought on the content of the request and creates a meticulous plan to hunt with more efficiency like usual.

He need to balance his result so it won’t look too unnatural yet still has a high efficiency rate so he start planning a route which would let him do the most work especially the subjugation job.

“Certainly! It such a great help for us! Well then, please sign here!”

“Then Renya, me and Brenda going to tidy up these jobs okay”

“That’s right. The place is just around the corner from the lodging so it’s perfect”

“Ehehe~, if you insist then how about I buy that uniform by the time we leave?”

That uniform emphasizes its wearer breast area but because the design toned down the sensuality, it managed to gives a not too vulgar impression. Added with many frill everywhere, that waitress uniform really do look cute. Indeed such cute uniform would look good on Floria.

But while Renya feels happy with Floria decisiveness, the surrounding male wanderer suddenly cancelled their taken job request en ma.s.se.

“M-my weapon doesn’t look so good”

The reason for why these men act like this is easily guessed by everyone present there.

But unfortunately for them, there is no one here who will let them forfeit their contracted request with just that kind of lame blatant excuse.

One of the receptionist lady with a one grade higher brilliant smile from before says:

But behind her brilliant smile, she unreservedly let out a bone-chilling pressure to those troublemakers.

“H-how could you!?”

“I beg you please!”

“And anyway, you guys sure are brave acting like that in front of me. Don’t you guys think I won’t let it off easily?”

“We are only looking so let us off won’t you! We definitely won’t touch we still want to live!”

“You’ve been monopolizing that flower garden by yourself like that just drop dead! Ah pardon me, I said that too much, so please take back that fist! I’M SORRY!!”

“If you have the power to cause a ruckus here then why not quickly finish up your work then quickly returns? Floria’s temporary work is 3 days long after all you know?”

“UOOOOOOOO!! I will go right away! I feel like the current me even can defeat those Giant Worm easily! I will definitely see Floria-chan wearing that uniform!”

“Thank G.o.d my target is closeby~~~!!! HAHAHA! Then I will go first! I will finish my job first then will witness her uniform figure first! Later then peeps! HYAH-HA~!”

“Then, according to your estimation, how many of those guys who would actually get back before three days?”

“Although?”

“Then it will be all depend on their luck, is that what you mean?”

Such pitiable people, but it can’t be helped.

After all this time around, everywhere is in a short-handed state and he feels bad if one of his party member would cut even more man power and for that reason, he doesn’t feel guilty in the slightest for provoking them in such manner. Yes, it is only for that reason.

It is definitely not because he feels angry at those guys because they want to look at Floria in her waitress uniform with a gaze that is like licking her all over her body like that. Yup, definitely not. So I hope you guys won’t make it back in three days is what Renya has in his mind.

But wait, isn’t there something else that he should be wary of in the moment? Just in case, Renya gives his warning to Floria.

“EEHHH~!? I’m happy that you held that much confidence in me but can’t you just pretend to be a bit worried at least!?”

“I understand how you feel but doesn’t you think your worry faced the wrong way!?”

“Okay okay, I know. Thank you for worrying about me”

“But I’m sorry, our number are limited so I can’t let Elvira take the escorting mission by herself so”

No, I am not ‘like a G.o.d’, I AM a G.o.d actually.

Renya and other party member are thinking of the same thing when they see the receptionist girl bowing her head in gratefulness.

And then, 3 days after.

While bringing a big baggage filled with magic beasts’ and monsters’ part that is cleanly dissembled by using Hlidskjalf’s automatic butchering facility, Renya and his party return back to Suminiastar Governmental Job Seeking Office.

The worker there who at first was shocked by the sheer number of monster parts they bring back added on top of their very fast job accomplishment time but now, their gaze are filled with confidence and relief when welcoming them back. Renya secretly feel good about their gaze so he naturally made a smile.

“Fuha~ …… Renya-san and gang are standing out like a sore thumb like usual. I know that in theory, traveling around the routes that you made before would indeed only takes two or three days to complete but, does it really that easy to track down those magic beast in the first place?”

“……… Ah…… now that you mention it……”

“On way back home…… found a flock of Sand Lizard…… is there any…… request to subjugate them?”

“Umm…… in the map…… around this area”

The receptionist girl skips out with much vigor to get the doc.u.ment.

And then she get scolded by her sharp-sighted superior not long after.

“If it was in Suminiastar, that is…… There’s seems to be no end to work around here after all……”

“By the way I really was surprised by that booming sound that happened yesterday morning. That explosion sound made me completely awoken from my sleep”

“That may be the case…… Seems like my decision to quickly escape from Faskurn was the right decision after all”

“Well, there should be guys who escape from Ezemeria too in this town so we might get some info from them about the condition there. All we can do now are just doing more jobs and live frugally. Things will eventually be fine”

The two of them walk out from the office without a shred of graveness in their expression but Renya oppositely can’t calm down his feeling. He feels like there are something stuck inside. Anyway, he just have a bad premonition about it.

He still doesn’t have any definite proof.

But his intuition as the war G.o.d seems to be telling him something. And that is about the arrivals of a new battle.

But his thought got distracted with the receptionist girl perfect business smile even though she just got scolded by her superior.

Renya is really amazed by her working ethic.
Even while feeling bad from the omen he felt, the receptionist girl unintentionally helps him feel relaxed for the time being.
