Succubus' Life in Another World

Chapter 24: The Party Name's Decided!?

The next day, same as yesterday, I ate the breakfast prepared by Inn Owner and head off to the guild. Ive already gotten used to commuting from the Gray Cats Inn to the guild. The Owner prepared a lot for todays breakfast. Honestly, when I first saw it, I cant eat all of this! Is what I thought, but I was surprised at how unexpectedly easily I finished it all. This body, maybe it has really good metabolism?

Entering the guild, I noticed that Urania already arrived. It seems like shes having morning tea while waiting for me.

Morning, I kept you waiting. Nn, Morning. I didnt wait that much. What should we do for today? Nn, lets take a Subjugation or Hunting Request. Seeing how yesterday went, theres no problem.

There are four types of Requests. First of all, one where the objective is to exterminate dangerous Monsters specified by the Guild or the Kingdom, the Subjugation Request. One where the objective is to obtain Monster Materials requested by Merchants or Nobles, the Hunting Request. Similarly, one where the objective is to acquire medical herbs or valuable ores from dangerous places, the Collection Request. Other than those three is one thats basically just doing odd jobs for the locals, the General Request.

The one we took yesterday was a Collection Request, while the Subjugation Designation was calculated in addition to that. If one were to ask for the difference between the Subjugation Request and the Subjugation Designation, theyre practically the same. Its just that the Monsters to be exterminated in the Subjugation Requests are in most cases, really strong and have already done damage. If you think of the Subjugation Request as one with high urgency, and the Subjugation Designation as one where we eliminate the future threats, then thats probably right.

Since we also had plans to go to The Abyssal Forest today, then itll probably be better to find a Hunting Request. Its flooding with Monsters inside the Dungeons, but they fundamentally dont go outside of it. They can eat anything but one of their foods is Mana. Since the Dungeon has dense Mana, they dont have a reason to specially go outside, where the Mana is sparse.

Thats why, the Monsters inside Dungeons arent really that hungry, so theyre pretty docile compared to other Monsters. The Monsters outside usually suck the surrounding Mana dry during its formation. Thats why theyre frenzied, theyre really hungry and think of everything but themselves as food.

Oh, how about this one? Nn, looks good. The rewards good too.

The one I saw was a Hunting Request for a monster called Eleharze. Although the requested amount is five, which isnt low by any means, the reward is fairly high, about as much as a three days stay at the Gray Cats Inn with breakfast and dinner provided. Currently I really eat a lot, but its still three days worth even with the amount that I eat. Its a pretty good reward, dont you think?

The Eleharze is, to put it simply, a horned rabbit. Its horn works really well for making antidotes, and its meat has a nutritional enhancement effect on the body. Since it has a pure white pelt, Im told that its a popular material for bags and such. And from how they also ask for the bones, its a pretty nice Monster with nothing left unused. Since obviously there should be a Magic Stone in its body, thats also going to be an additional reward.

Alright then, shall we take this request? Nn, lets.

And so we peel it off the request board and bring it to our usual reception desk. Todays receptionist is also Petra.

Ms. Petra, wed like to accept a request. I see, understood. Its a Hunting Request today, is it? Yeah, yesterday weve checked each others movements to some extent, so today will be going full strength. Nn, well do our best.

Making a small fist pump in front of her chest, Urania seems to be pretty motivated. Im pretty motivated too. Considering that its a party the Guild Master forcefully put together, we get along pretty well. I should probably thank him sometime.

I see, then theres no particular problem. The request limit is in three days, but if youre going to the Abyssal Forest, then youll just be doing day trips, right? Thats the plan. Were bringing in food just in case, but as for camping inside the Dungeon Were not, ready yet. The most common cause of accidents for rookies are unprepared Dungeon camping. If youre not ready yet, then make sure you come back by sundown even if you havent hunted enough, alright? Roger tha~t. Nn, understood

Urania and I dont plan on being hasty too. If we cant do it, then well just obediently go home for today. The distance to The Abyssal Forest is near enough for a day trip, after all, so if todays no good, then see you tomorrow. Well just come back the next day.

In that case, the acceptance of the request by the pair Little Fairies has been verified. Nn? What did you say? The acceptance of the request? No, after that. The pair Little Fairies? Yeah! That!! Whats that!? Your partys name?

No, we havent even decided on one. Wait, maybe Urania did? Thinking so, I turned to Urania, but she just stares at me and shakes her head. It seems like she doesnt have any idea about this too.

In the first place, we dont remember ever giving a name when we formed the party yesterday, though? Thats strange. The document the Guild Master gave us definitely had Little Fairies written on it, but?

Ah, I see. Come to think of it, when the Guild Master left he said something like The Partys formation will be processed on our end. So that time our party name was arbitrarily decided on too, huh. Screw your itll be processed on our end. I dont plan on having such an embarrassing name, you know!?

Urania, this is where we need to firmly object Not really, its fine. Really?

Isnt it embarrassing? I implicitly asked. And although she hesitated a bit, Urania nodded firmly. If shes fine with it, then I guess theres no need to make a fuss over that. Well, the next time we meet, Im giving him a smack, though.

Umm, then is everything alright now? Its fine, please go on. Alright, then once again. The acceptance of the request by the pair Little Fairies has been verified. In accordance with the guild regulations, please complete the request with all your power. Right, understood. Nn, well do our best!

And so we, the Little Fairies, although reluctant, have decided on our party name, accepted a new request, and head off to The Abyssal Forest.
