"Ck .. no. .. How can I be defeated by mere human waste .. If only ... I could preserve this flesh …"
With those last words, the smaller demon disappeared. He's not dead. He was no longer able to maintain an incomplete body. And all three have won.
"Yes-yes! We killed a lower demon! ”
"We succeeded! I know that we can achieve anything if we try! ”
"good. I'm very relieved. I'm pretty sure we'll die … "
They celebrated for a moment, but then the flames that came made their expressions change.
"Damn! The fireball he released started burning the building! ”
"It's bad! We need to get out now, or we'll burn to a crisp! ”
"Don't stand there in shock. Let's get out of here fast. ”
The three of them frantically began their escape.
Fortunately, the door had been shattered during the fight, and they were able to come out …
"By the way .. ten pieces of gold …"
“Don't talk about that! We just came here for a break. Okay?"
"…Him . His house was on fire and … "
"What! So we work for free again !? But I already want to live in luxury! I was thinking of buying a beautiful robe with a gift of money! ”
“I told you, don't lift it! It will only make you sad. ”
“Well, I'm not surprised this is happening again. I guess we should be happy that we're alive! ”
"Ugh, always so .. We say the same thing all the time. ”
However, despite complaining, the three of them looked cheerful. This kind of thing happens all the time, and they know from experience, that as long as you are alive, good things will come to you.

They finished making reports at the nearby guild and then stayed at the bar until late at night.
After which, the three of them were summoned by the guild master.
Restlessly they entered the room.
“It looks like you let greed get the best of you again, and you take on a job you shouldn't have. ”
The guild master said, before Gido even closed the door behind them.
"Oh, but we're not making any money. Please don't punish us! "
However, the guild master only snorted and continued.
"Well, it's okay. If you survive, you will get something at the same time. ”
They are confused as to how to react to this. But they were at least relieved that the guild master appeared to be in a good mood …
“Stay, the three of you are too careless! Idiot !! ”
The guild master continued in a way that was more terrifying than the other giants. The lecture continued for hours, which was strange, considering how busy the guild master should be. Things got worse for them, and they wanted to cry.
Finally, the guild master said to them,
“However, Twin Snakes were found because of your report. It was far from the village, just outside the forest. That's because you lured him there, right? It was done well . And you made it out alive. Next time you need to be more careful. ”
“No, we think of nothing but running. And we just went in the opposite direction as a village by accident. You know ... we don't have the best direction … "
"Yes yes . Very panicked! ”
"How awkward we are. There will be soldiers waiting for us in the village. ”
They said in denial, but the guild master seemed to look through it and said, Alright. That's it, 'and then turn away from them and head for some documents. It was the guild leader's way of showing gratitude.
The three of them bowed and left the room behind them.
A few days later.
The three of them had come to a certain village to work.
“Ah, miss! Thank you for killing that scary monster last time! ”
The little ones screamed as they ran towards them to swarm around.
They're all smiling.
When the three of them came here last time, the children were all worried about their parents and could not stop crying — but there was no clue about it now.
“Just seeing your smile is the gift I need. That's what I think! "
"Yes. Not bad . ”
"really. There are more important things than money! ”
The children's smiles were contagious, and it didn't take long for the three of them to smile as well.
And as usual, they looked ahead and started walking.
Their adventure has just begun.
