Half-elf Notebook

Adventurer's Guild, East District of Leishi City.

The two people who were chatting casually pushed the door and walked into the guild. The special smell and noise inside that seemed to remain the same all year round immediately broke into the noses and eardrums of Rick and Ina.

The same bar as usual, the long reception counter, the wooden tables and chairs near the window, the big bounty board hanging on the wall, and the adventurers crowded together to watch the commissions.

——All of them appeared before the white-haired girl’s eyes.

as always.

While Ina was still scanning the hall, a familiar voice sounded from a corner of the guild and greeted the two:

"Ina! Mr. Lake!"

She looked in the direction of the voice and soon saw Mitaokel ​​and Xilia sitting at the third row of chairs by the window - although the discovery of the goblin ruins was entirely based on the extraordinary abilities of Rick and Ina.

But Lake did not monopolize the huge reward.

To him, it seemed insignificant.

Ina did not express any objection either.

The two of them tacitly included Mitaokel ​​and Xilia in the list of people who would share in the unexpected gains.

The proportion is based on the prior entrustment, 50-50.

Almost at the same time when the two stepped into the guild and heard the voice, a light blue fluorescent figure suddenly appeared on the side of the independent front desk.

He held a cigarette in his hand, put it to his lips and took a puff.

The magic glow faded.

Shu Xi landed steadily on the ground, and a puff of light white smoke came out from his nostrils and lips.

He reached out and held down the brim of his top hat, then turned to look at the entrance of the guild, and at Ina and Rick.

With his arrival, the guild inevitably caused some commotion, or shock, or awe-inspiring glances, which fell on him and then nervously retracted.

President Shu Xi's elusiveness was well known in the guild and among adventurers, but this space jump was enough to attract the attention of many adventurers.

Wizard-level magicians are not common anywhere.

Rick naturally noticed Shu Xi, and he patted Ina beside him:

"Someone who is willing to pay a good price for the information has appeared. You sit down with Mitaokel ​​and Miss Xilia and wait for a while. I will go and negotiate the price with the other party."

"Oh~"

Ina responded and looked up curiously towards where Shu Xi appeared.

Shu Xi, who was wearing a mysterious wizard robe and a tall pointed hat similar to a traditional wizard's, smiled and nodded to her.

"Uncle Shu Xi?"

The question only lingered in Ina's mind for a short while before she separated from Rick and walked towards the table where the other two were.

On the wooden table painted with wood wax oil, there are four cups of black tea.

The black tea did not have the wisps of white smoke that it emits when it is just brewed, as if it had been left for a while. It was obviously ordered by Mitokal or Cirilla for West and the others.

There are no servants in the guild, so if you want a drink, you can only order it from the bar and pick it up yourself.

Mitaokel ​​and Xilia were sitting on the other side of the wooden table, their two pairs of clear blue eyes looking at Ina who was approaching with expectation and confusion.

They did not speak immediately, but waited for Ina to sit down before asking:

"Mr. Rick, what is this?"

They were invited by Ina and Rick to share the unexpected gain.

But no one is sure what the unexpected gain was and when it was discovered.

Mitaokol had also studied the history of various races in class and knew about the existence of goblins, but he found it difficult to connect them with an ordinary cave.

After all, how could an ordinary mortal, a citizen of the kingdom, imagine that the land where he had lived for more than a decade was not far from the territory occupied by the kingdom for hundreds of years.

There are actually relics of an alien race that are thousands or tens of thousands of years old.

"Uncle, go and negotiate the price of a piece of intelligence."

Feeling a little thirsty, Ina picked up a cup of black tea and took a sip:

"You should have some impression of it. It's the cave that my uncle and I entered after leaving the flower field in the Starfall Mountains two days ago."

"Cave?"

Mitaokal's expression was slightly startled, but within a few seconds, the cave that looked normal appeared in his mind.

If we have to say something special, it is probably that the entrance of the cave, which can only accommodate one person, is more than two meters high.

Xilia asked first:

"Is there anything in there, Miss Ina?"

Her azure eyes seemed to be sparkling, and she was only two or three years older than Ina.

Any child as young as her could not resist a story of mysterious and fantastic adventure.

Especially when these stories involve treasure.

"A metal tunnel built by goblins. Uncle Rick said there is a building left behind by goblins inside."

Ina lowered her voice intentionally, fearing that she might be heard by the adventurers around her. She also glanced left and right, front and back, to avoid attracting anyone's attention.

However, this is indeed unnecessary.

Because no one would listen to their conversation carefully.

Even if they really listened to every word, no one would take seriously the fact that a few newcomers found the goblin ruins.

Everyone can brag, and the guild has no shortage of drunk and boastful adventurers.

What about discovering the dragon's treasure and seeing the remains of giants.

The story of a love affair with a beautiful elf of wizard rank when he was young.

A friend of mine encountered a vicious orc army and killed them seven times...

As long as you are willing to spend a dozen gros, you can have a few glasses of malt-flavored beer, a plate of grilled sausages, and a plate of roast pork.

I can listen to them all day without repeating myself, and each one is more vivid and colorful than the last, just like the real thing.

Xilia was also confused.

This once again involves her blind spots in knowledge.

In the stories passed down from generation to generation by civilians, those who eat people are often orcs, and those who kidnap children at night are dark wizards and witches.

There isn't much room for goblins.

"Goblin relics? Goblins that have disappeared from human territory for thousands of years?"

Mitokor just had a look of astonishment on his face, unlike Cirilla, whose historical knowledge was almost as pure as a blank sheet of paper.

He was just splashing water in the ocean of knowledge.

As for why it is skipping stones…sometimes a sweet dream can also be a low-altitude flight.

……

"So, it's not a coincidence that you space-jumped down and I and Ina just happened to walk in?"

Rick looked at Shu Xi, who was sitting opposite him and led him into the president's office, and teased with pretended confusion:
