“A room where sake bottles roll around.”

Cards and coins were piled up on the table.

“This is the forest guard’s prime contractor’s hideout.”

In a gloomy room where several men hang out, there is only one middle-aged man who reports something to the leader while standing instead of sitting on a chair.

The middle-aged man, subcontractor Evason, was the first to decide to return to the field.

The main contractor, Gelg, stood up from his chair and punched him in the face, converting him.

“Gepe”

The hair on the top of the barcode-stripped head swayed like seaweed, and he fell to his knees.

“Are you misunderstanding me? What’s wrong with that EX quitting? Fuck it. Say you can’t do it after you die.”

“B-but. Without Ex-kun.”

Evason pressed his cheeks with his moist eyes and looked up, clinging to Gelg and begging for mercy.

“It’s okay. Ex-kun, Ex-kun from a while ago! What’s wrong with just one person resting? Are you a male prostitute (Iro)? You can do it with only the remaining members.”

Naturally, Gelg felt a strong sense of disgust when his father, who had his bar code stripped off, snuggled up to him cutely. I couldn’t stand the shudder and disgust, and this time my legs came out. Die, oh my!

“Kaha. Kahyuu. Well, until now, Ex-kun was doing it all by himself…”

Evason involuntarily confessed the secret out of pain.

Naturally, I touched Gelg’s anger.

With his eyes wide open, Gelg tightened Evason’s neck as much as he could and pulled him up.

“Huh!? By yourself! If I remember correctly, you should have paid for 10 grandchildren?”

“Hey. He’s a B-class mage, so we’d rather compensate him from our salary.”

Evason begged for forgiveness with a blue-blooded face.

By the way, the difference between the B-E class was in Guild Master’ pocket.

“Tch, I’ll kill you no matter what path you take. Think carefully about which is kinder, monsters who can’t enter the city or us who can move freely in the city. I think you know, but if you escape, I’ll tear your family to pieces.”

“Hey”

Gelg glared at Evason, who was freed from his neck restraint and crawled away on his buttocks.

While the other comrades played with the pile of coins, they slapped the table with a grin on their faces.

“Let’s start again sooner than that, Gelug. We’ve got a good card now.”

Gelg’s hand isn’t bad, but he’s frustrated and can’t get his thoughts together.

“Raise!”

“Hey, it’s a fold”

When I threw the cards in my hand, the comrades who had won all of them grinned and showed their cards as if their hands were slipping. What the fuck is a good card.

“Hehe thank you”

“A bluff! A god of plague. That guy is Ex.”

Damn it, my coins have been recovered.

“Don’t get angry, Gelg. I like you, Ex boy. Five years ago, when 50 subcontractors joined us, and we were reduced to 30, he was a good boy who did all of our work. “

“Are you really that good? Then why don’t you scare him back and make him work again…”

“Look at the dealt cards.” It’s subtle.

“That’s stupid. I saw that boy defeating the Goblin King by himself. He’ll be defeated. Moreover, if the story just now is true, it’s the equivalent of 100 people under the Forest Guard until now. It’s like doing the job alone.”

“Hey, hey, he’s crazy. Isn’t that a complete monster!? Who the hell is Ex? So what are you doing?”

annoying. I feel like throwing a shit card out there.

“Use your head, Gelg. Isn’t it annoying that you listened to Guild Master’ instructions quietly?”

“Is that so? Did Ex have some kind of weakness? Then it would be quicker to find out from Guild Master.”

“It’s no good.”

“There’s a guy with a joker in his hand.” The mark I secretly put on the surface told me.

I’m curious as to why Guild Master released the convenient EX, but if you ask him, it’s quick.

“Fold. Hey, you. Find out Ex’s weaknesses from Guild Master!”

“Huh? Me!?”

“I singled out the guy who lost the game the most.”

“If you do well, I won’t remove you from the members at the next efficiency improvement. Hurry up.”

“Oh, I got it!”

“Really cut costs, cut costs. It’s a tough world.”

While agreeing with what my comrades were saying, I drank cheap sake and my stomach felt hot. I can’t do it

I stare at the loser who ran out.

“At least run for me.”

In order to find a weakness that doesn’t exist, the loser rushed out to meet Guild Master. The chains that bound Ex disappeared a month ago.

“The location has changed to a subcontractor office.”

“Evason, even if you suddenly call me. We can’t do it.”

“If you don’t do it, you don’t know what the prime contractor will do. Besides, there’s no reason why Ex-kun can do it and we can’t do it.”

The two who were summoned by Evason were terrified. That should be it, the last time I went to work was 4 years ago. Moreover, there were 100 members at that time, so it should have been a formation of at least 10 people.

“Today, I just need to restart the old-fashioned barrier. I only have the luxury items I’ve saved up for five years. It’s easy, let’s go!”

“‘Dah’”

This group of three frantically ran around desperately and didn’t have a particularly noticeable highlight, so I’ll omit it, but after using up all the precious magic guns and recovery medicines, only 3 of the 12 barriers were able to restart.

After discovering the Orc General from a distance, his mind was completely broken and he threw away the remaining items and ran away.

Half of Evason’s hair, which was originally scarce, was taken away by a handful of orcs, his clothes were in tatters, and he had run out of items.

“If you had trained even a little, you wouldn’t have exposed yourself like this.”

“Why did Ex, who used one recovery potion, get hurt while doing such a simple job?” I remember saying that.

“Evason, let’s run”

“I’d rather be killed by humans than be eaten by monsters.”

“Wow. Was this forest such a threat? If only I had Ex-kun, I wouldn’t have been able to do this. Why did he quit!?”

“There’s nothing we can do now.”

“If you run away poorly, your family will be blamed.”

“Evason’s stride in order to report his defeat.”

“…should I report to the prime contractor?”

Sensing the aura of misfortune, the carrion-eating Death-Eating Bird crowed. A plump black flightless bird. I don’t even want to eat it, but it seems that the taste is very bad.
