[I am a merchant, please help.]
Oh, this chat.
"So NPCs are actually made to resemble real humans?"
Then, emmm ... Looking at the way he spoke, I did not find a hint of strangeness because every expression of that woman looked real.
"My name is Jean, if you?"
The NPC was silent when I asked that.
Uh, did I make a mistake?!
I don't know what caused it, but he kind of ignored me even after I asked him a second time.
Oh, naw. I don't expect it wasn't my fault.
[I'm from Fredohmnia City. I became a merchant when I was 16, and was raised by a modest family there.]
I let out a sigh of relief, as the direction of the conversation shifted to that question.
"So the NPC could be said to have no name."
I can deduce it from the NPC who did not answer my question about introducing myself to it.
And, of course this is something that can make people misunderstand if not explained earlier.
Although her family background is explained in detail.
I decided not to care any further because I thought it was impolite to find out too much, then boarded the carriage when the NPC told me it was leaving now.
The big train finally moved from where it was.
...----------------...
『Then, Jean. Make sure you do not fail to run the mission.』
"Wait, is this gonna make me lose money?"
Siska nodded her head.
『Yes, uhmmm ... That includes. Then, too ... You will lose trust. Try checking your trust points or TP in your status section.』
"Huh, okay."
I did as Siska told me before finding the number that turned out to be.
• 1000 TP: +
"It seems like it's on a plus number."
『I'm glad to hear it, as long as it's not in the minus number.』
"What if it's minus?"
When I asked her, Siska seemed to think about her answer before saying.
『Forwardly you will not be able to receive missions from NPCs anymore.』
"Did?!"
I widened my eyes, when it turned into an explanation.
『Ah, but take it easy! At least it would have happened if your TP was at minus a hundred thousand more. I can say in the amount below it will be safe-just to make it a plus back.』
I shook my head, I somehow felt relieved that Siska had already said that.
...----------------...
Returning to the mission, I then found a large road between the woods.
[This is a path that traders often pass to go to big cities.]
"What are you going to do there?"
[Of course, adding supplies.]
He then pointed in one direction.
[Miss bodyguard, can you overcome one wolf in front?]
"Excuse me?!"
I came to my senses from my daydreams when some wolves started popping up in front of our carriage.
• Interceptor Wolf
Level: 57
HP: 5700
Attacks: 7000
Physical Endurance: 2500
Agility: 7500s
Skills: Double Attack
I got off the train along with [Appraisal] who started doing his job.
For some cases, I can't save that [Double Attack] skill because I already have it.
But looking at her agility, it seems like I can tell this wolf has an edge in the agility part.
The wolf then moved forward simultaneously as I began to swing the sword.
The moment I thought the wolf would pounce on me, the monster immediately jumped past me to head to another target ... Eh?!
"I won't let it!"
I used [Two Heavy Attack] to stop the wolf, and he instantly became a crystal stone after being drained to zero in the HP section.
I then saw the NPC merchant who was in the carriage only remain silent when there was danger trying to approach him.
At least react or try to hide from wolves.
"Woof woof!"
Meanwhile, there were more wolves coming.
The fight occurred, the wolves that applied the joint attack method did experience rapid progress at the beginning of the fight.
"Strong Shield!"
I'll make sure that my shield doesn't break easily because they give too much scratch.
• [Increased Active Level]
[HP + 5700, MP + 3000, Attack + 7000, Physical Endurance + 2500, Agility + 7500, Luck + 10, added into status.]
• [Increased Active Level (2)]
[HP + 5700, MP + 3000, Attack + 7000, Physical Endurance + 2500, Agility + 7500, Luck + 10, added into status.]
In the end, one by one the wolves began to fall down after the swords pierced their bellies.
"Huh, it's finally over ..."
I fell down on the ground when I felt my knees too weak to stand.
I am not tired physically, but mentally.
The first time I fought for someone, and it was more troublesome than taking care of myself.
At least I should prioritize my Clients, and this became a new problem when such wolves were targeting merchant NPCs more than their bodyguards.
