Somehow managing to do something about it.
My head hurts, but the plan is decided. For now, we'll somehow extract the drill's magic power from the white-ish person. He might heal if we leave him alone, so we'll postpone the rest for now.
We'll find the fools who worshiped the strange form of Shiva!
The muscularity and roughness, the first ones that came to mind were the Christia Knights.
It's been a while, Dober-san. He still looked like a Chihuahua. While drinking tea, we gathered information, and it turned out that the serious Dober-san and Jash had no tolerance for the strange Shiva faith... There was no problem at all.
Also, I heard that Mr. Dober's grandchild was born. I saw the photo and promised to hold him next time. The grandchild was also a Chihuahua. So cute.
Now that I've had a heartwarming moment with Dober-san's grandchild, I headed to the Adventurer's Guild after thinking if the muscle-brained Geraldin-san.
"Eh?"
When I turned around after having my clothes tugged, Nex was there.
"Oneechan, work? Request?"
"Long time no see, Nex. Well, I have something I want to investigate... I might put out a request too."
"I'll take it."
Nex seemed motivated. Seriously? Let's ask him about the details at least. He is more than suitable for infiltration tactics, which I prefer.
"For now, will you listen to the request I'm going to?"
"... (Nods).”
Rank doesn't matter. It's a request for information about a group with a strange Shiva faith, and it will be rewarded accordingly. We'll make detailed arrangements and pay a generous request fee and reward.
"Huh? Onee… Rosarin. What's wrong?"
Jend and the others also came. Mary immediately came to me and started rubbing against me. Seriously, she's still cute even though she's grown so big!
"Oneecha~n, purr, purr."
"Long time no see, Mary. It would be great if everyone could come back more often. Geraldin-san comes back all the time, so it's not like you can't come back either, right?"
"Old man (Tousan) comes back too much.”
Everyone seemed exasperated. Is that so? He comes back too much?
"What's wrong, Rosarin?"
Nex showed the request he had just taken to Ordo. Jend also peeked.
"Oneechan, won't you give this as a designated request for us, too? We can use information brokers and investigate as well."
Jend's party, the "Protectors of the Amethyst," is not only good at subjugation but also skilled in information-related tasks. They are not currently taking requests, so I asked for a special designated request.
By the way, they still won't tell me the origin of their party name. Why?
"Then, please take care of it."
"I'll leave it to you."
"By the way, why are you earning so much?"
They exchanged glances and shyly spoke.
"I want to donate money to an orphanage and save up to someday establish our own orphanage."
I see! I wondered why they were working so much!
"Mhm, that's great too, but... instead of that, how about not letting any more children becoming orphans instead, since you're part of the Adventurer's Guild now?”
"Huh?"
“... (Dumbfounded)."
"Nya?"
"?"
"I mean, orphanages will be completely taken over by the state in a few years. If we leave it to private businesses, there might be profit-driven operators, and the children might have a hard time."
Everyone looked stunned.
"With no war at current, adventurers are leaving behind the most orphans. So, how about creating adventurer family insurance?"
"Family insurance?"
Adventurers have many orphans. Most adventurers continue their work even after establishing families. The reason being that adventurers earn well. However, there's always a risk. There are cases where the primary earner among adventurers dies, leaving behind orphaned families, or cases where adventurers get injured and can't work, and their children are left alone.
So, it would be better for all to save a little money while working and create a system to pay insurance money to the families and children. When I explained it, Jend and the others were in awe.
"Oneechan, you're a genius."
"It's something that exists in Rin’s world."
"Well, even so... it's amazing that you can come up with such a thing."
Jend smiled.
"We will give it a try. Thank you, Onee… Rosarin."
"You don’t want to call me Oneechan anymore?"
"I want to be on equal terms, even if our love can't be fulfilled."
Jend's soft smile made him quite handsome.
Thanks to their efforts, the Adventurer's Guild-based insurance system will be established, and the number of orphans will significantly decrease in a few years.
The information about muscles came easily from the Adventurer's Guild Wolfanea Branch. However, I found myself in a predicament. The opponents were the formidable individuals whom I had asked to disband the group multiple times, but never yielded.
I went there in person to persuade them, but as expected, my efforts didn't bear fruit. However, I have to find a way to resolve this, or the muscle Shiva might end up becoming entrenched.
