After Being Exiled From the Country, I Became the Fourth Enchanter in the World!

Chapter 48 The Quality Is Improved but the Quantity Is the Same

「Hmm… the level-up speed is getting slower, huh…」

We’ve been attacking the slime room for three weeks… and it’s getting harder for me to level up.

Judging from my progress… it’s probably going to be harder for Nina and Ian to level up in the next week or so.

「Still, it’s hard to find a good hunting ground. Maybe it’s about time to explore the lower floors….」

「Considering the pace of exploration, the efficiency probably will be worse than it is now.」

Right….

「How about attacking the goblin’s monster room on the 5th floor? Their strength isn’t that different from slimes, but… unlike slimes, goblins are stink and dirty, so I think it’s just going to drop our motivation….」

「The loincloths and testicles, which are their drop items, are too smelly and are only used by people in the slums, so the purchase price is low….」

It wasn’t the left ear!?

I thought it was the same as the subjugation proof outside the labyrinth….

Goblin’s loincloth and testicle… we have to buy tongs to collect their drop items….

My motivation drops even more….

「A monster room…. If the goblin room is a no, then how about the kobold room on the 9th floor or the orc room on the 15th floor? They are a bit far, though….」

Nina, nice idea!

It takes a longer time to go back and forth every day, but since the level of body strengthening has increased, the burden on the body shouldn’t be that great.

The materials of these monsters should be much higher than that of goblins, so it won’t be a problem even if the efficiency drops a little.

「Considering our current status, I think kobolds won’t be a problem. …… Nina can’t use magic, so she’ll be having a hard time fighting an orc. Orcs have a tough body, so her weapons will wear out quickly… and they deal huge damage. We have to be fully prepared if we’re going to attack them.」

Because my skill levels increase every day, I can’t find the right time to enchant my high-quality equipment, so I’m still using the armor and robe that I had before entering the labyrinth.

Of course, I change the cheap stuff, like misanga bracelets and socks, with new ones everyday.

If we’re going to hunt orcs, I think it’s better to switch to the best enchantment for all our equipment.

But, orc’s drop item… the meat is delicious….

When it’s getting harder to level up in the kobold room, let’s camp on the 15th floor and visit the orc room every day.

「I want to sell these materials!」

「Yes. Thank you for the many materials you provide every day. The large amount of magic stones is very helpful to the guild….」

Mona-san… it lacks persuasiveness if you say it with that lifeless expression.

I sold the slime jellies and magic stones almost every day for the past three weeks, but it seems that she managed to put up with counting them.

Recently, the guild’s staff members look frightened every time I show up at the guild… and the faces of the staff members who count the materials are getting older day by day, so I feel a little guilty.

It seems that even the adventures secretly call me the <Mental Scraper>….

「Thank you for waiting. There are 32530 slime magic stones and 32857 slime jellies, so the total is 2 gold coins, 61 silver coins, 22 copper coins, and 10 iron coins.」

「Thank you. I’m going to stop attacking the slime room, so I think I’ll bring different materials starting tomorrow.」

「Understood! We couldn’t process all the slime jelly, so we’d appreciate it if you do that!」

Ah… I guess there’s still some leftover….

But, Mona-san… I don’t think your big smile is because of the inventory problem.

「By the way, which monster are you planning to hunt starting tomorrow? If there’s a good request, I will introduce it to you!」

「No, it’s a constant request for materials delivery, so it’s okay.」

「Eh…?」

「I’m thinking of attacking the kobold’s monster room starting tomorrow. I’m sorry to trouble you, but I’ll leave the assessment of the kobold’s knives and magic stone to you again. I wonder if I’ll get the rare drop kobold gauntlets from them…?」

Ah… Mona-san’s rejuvenated face turned pale again….

No… it’s not my fault.

It’s the guild’s fault for not hiring part-timers or buying the materials by weight.

That’s why don’t look at me like that….

「Well then, I’ll be in your care again starting tomorrow!」

「…… Yes. Kobold knife is a weapon favored by low-ranked adventurers, the guild would be very grateful. We look forward to seeing you tomorrow as well….」

Even though her eyes are hollow, she doesn’t forget her customer service words….

As expected of a veteran guild receptionist….

I respect Mona-san’s customer service spirit!
