"This task..." Mira held the task list and hesitated.

Rhodes leaned over and whispered: "Looking for Divotiang Grass, the reward is 88,600J, and the mission location is Galantos Snow Mountain. Is there anything wrong?"

"It's a very common task, but the reward is a bit low compared to the difficulty." Mira explained,

"There is a ferocious carnivorous monster in Galantos. Generally speaking, such a risky mission requires a reasonable reward of at least 100,000 J. But the other party marked an urgent mission..."

Low reward, high risk, and expedited?

"Maybe there's some inside story?" Rhodes said, "What is the Divotiang grass used for?"

"It was first used to treat colds and fevers, but because of the harsh growing environment and the availability of alternative drugs, it was rarely used. However, it was later discovered that it could be used to treat certain diseases..."

Mira flipped through the information, "It's true, the client's family has contracted that disease and is in urgent need of medicinal treatment."

"I'm afraid I spent all my savings on medical treatment..." Rhode looked at the odd amount of remuneration and took the task list from Mira's hand.

"Rhode?"

"Can Elfman and I handle the kind of monster you mentioned?"

"That's a gregarious monster. It likes to swarm when fighting..." Mira glanced at Rhodes. This didn't seem to be a big problem.

"What you need to be careful about is that they create avalanches in a special way, which is very tricky in a snowy mountain environment."

"I'm not afraid of group battles. If the avalanche is enough, we can fly away..."

Rhodes said, "That's it. It's an unpopular task anyway, let's go and deal with it."

He wasn't sure if this would be considered damaging to the market, but he would have to meet with the client anyway and see if the other party really couldn't afford it or was deliberately lowering the price.

"Yeah." Mira nodded. Since Rhodes had already decided, she didn't say anything more.

As for whether Elfman cares about the small pay, Mira thinks not.

"Elfman~"

Elfman walked over from the bulletin board: "Sister?"

"The task has been selected, let's take a look." Mira showed him the task list and explained the key points at the same time.

"No problem sister, if you're a man, reward doesn't matter at this time!"

If it had been anyone else, Rhodes would have said, "Then your share belongs to me," but unfortunately it was Elfman, who could only say:

"Then let's go prepare separately. We'll meet here in half an hour. Remember to bring enough winter clothes."

"Man!" Since it was an urgent mission, Elfman responded casually and ran out.

Rhodes went to the warehouse and library with ease, and took the necessary things before going home to prepare his luggage.

Half an hour later, Mira looked at the two people who were ready to go and said, "Elfman remember to listen to Rhodes' opinions more."

"I understand, sister." Elfman wanted to fight Rhodes again.

But it is precisely because he often fights that he knows that Rhodes is a trustworthy guy.

Mira opened her mouth, wanting to say something to Rhodes, but in the end she just looked into his eyes: "Be careful on the road."

Rhodes smiled: "Okay, let's go."

This time he left in a hurry, and there was no time to do anything. Rhodes could only bring a book to read on the carriage.

Elfman still didn't quite understand Rhode's task process: "What is that?"

"For information about Galantos Snow Mountain, you must know more about the mission location." Rhodes showed him the cover, then found a magic book and stuffed it into Elfman's arms, "Take this." , use it when necessary.”

"Manly..."

Rhodes responded quickly: "If you are a man, just hold it carefully and don't let your sister worry."

"You... are really thoughtful." Elfman thought for a while and asked, "You really want to take action against your sister, right?"

Rhodes thought for a moment. Elfman might prefer a straightforward communication method, but it's not the time to speak directly yet.

So here comes a statement that is both straightforward and not straightforward.

"Well... I can't admit it yet."

Elfman was stunned for a moment and said angrily: "What do you mean you can't admit it, you bastard!"

"That's the literal meaning, and it's best not to say this to Mira first."

"Why should I listen to you?"

"Then decide in a manly way. Whoever wins the next fight will be at his discretion."

"That's it, manly!" Elfman couldn't help but agree after hearing the 'manly way'.

Then he recalled the huge golem he had seen last night.

Do you want to restrict Rhodes from using that move?

No, that’s not a manly fight!

Damn it, if you can absorb it with your whole body... The magic book in Elfman's hand fell on his lap, and he subconsciously wanted to hold his head in his hands.

Rhodes frowned. This child also had serious psychological problems. He said he wanted to move forward, but in fact it was not that easy.

The reason why he forcibly accepted the Beast King was to protect his family in a desperate situation, and it was not his fault at all.

But because it was he who was unconscious who did it, he has been unable to forgive himself.

‘Elfman is a gentle child. ’ Mira said so.

Rhodes also saw Elfman's previous appearance in the guild's photo album, and his temperament was indeed completely different from now.

The gentler my heart is, the more miserable I am.

Rod patted his shoulder and didn't try to persuade him. If this kind of thing could be solved purely by words, the president would have cured him long ago.

Even if you want to talk, you have to find a suitable time.

It took about two hours to get from Magnolia to the client's village.

"Elfman, get ready to get off the car."

"Ah." Elfman responded, then a little surprised, "How did you know?"

"Because my Canyon Swift Crab has arrived a long time ago." Rod pointed to his eyes, "It has seen our carriage."

What a convenient magic.

Elfman put away the magic book and put on his backpack.

The two entered the village, and Elfman's face scared the children chasing on the street to run around them.

Rod asked Elfman to wait for him there, and he went to find a kind-looking old man to ask for directions:

"Hello, I am a wizard from Fairy Tail. May I ask where Mr. Karut and Mrs. Weiss live?"

"Karut? I see. Are you here to treat his illness? He is a poor child, and he is about to collapse. He was driving a horse-drawn carriage to deliver goods to other places a few days ago..."

The old man muttered a few words, and then pointed in a direction, "Over there, there is a stable in the yard, but it is the one without horses."

What a strange way of identification...

Rod thanked the old man and asked Elfman to go to the house.

But thinking about it, did Mr. Karut sell his horse in order to treat his illness?
