Chapter 15: You Call Him a New Adventurer?
"Miss Suya, please help me. I really need money right now. If I only do E-Rank gathering quests, I might not even have enough to pay for a hotel tonight."
After his request was rejected, Yecheng could only try to gain the young lady’s assistance by playing the victim.
However, what Yecheng did not expect was that the way she helped him was not by using her influence to benefit him, but by warmly inviting Yecheng to stay at her house!
"Miss Suya, that’s not quite right. Although we did hit it off just now, we only met today, and you’re inviting me to stay at your place..."
Yecheng was surprised by how bold the girls in this otherworld were. Although his looks probably helped a lot, the fact that a girl he had just met was being so proactive made Yecheng start to wonder if he had entered a rather unconventional otherworld!
As everyone knows, even anime series have their surface and hidden layers. If it’s a surface series, a typical fantasy background world is either intense or comedic.
But if it’s a hidden series... then what happens next after Yecheng goes home with her would likely be the so-called paid content.
To be honest, given the high proportion of handsome men and beautiful women in this world, it’s not impossible that it could be a hidden series.
After much internal struggle, Yecheng ultimately refused the girl’s enthusiastic invitation.
If it were before, Yecheng wouldn’t have minded interacting with her.
However, as an adventurer, he didn’t know how long he would be staying in this city. While he wouldn’t refuse a casual night of fun, taking responsibility was a different matter altogether.
"Really, what are you thinking! I’m a staff member of the Adventurer’s Guild, so I usually stay at the guild.
However, I have an unused house in this town, and I meant for you to stay there temporarily.
You don’t need to worry about the rent. You can pay me back whenever you have the means."
"Hmm, that’s what I meant earlier. I’ve only known Miss Suya for less than a day. Is it really okay for you to lend me your house like this?"
As a decent person, Yecheng naturally wouldn’t admit that he had been thinking something else. So he said this with a straight face, making Suya feel a bit embarrassed because of her earlier thoughts.
"That’s no problem. My house is quite large, and besides you, there’s another tenant.
She’s very beautiful, but also very strong. Don’t provoke her."
After handing over the magic key to her house and telling Yecheng the location, Suya added, "Actually, if you want to quickly advance your adventurer rank and take on higher-level quests, there’s another way.
You can team up with high-rank adventurers. This way, you can receive high mission rewards, and your safety will be more assured. You’ll also gain a lot of experience.
Generally, high-rank adventurers don’t like to bring rookies along, but I’ve worked at the guild for a while and have some connections."
Suya couldn’t quite explain why she was providing so much help to a newly met adventurer, but besides the fact that he was good-looking, she also saw a lot of potential in him.
As a guild receptionist, she interacted with various adventurers every day. Naye Cheng, who gave her this feeling, was the first among the new adventurers she had met.
"Then I'll trouble you, Miss Soya. When I have more money, I'll pay back the rent I owe you double."
Since the other party had provided him with accommodation and found a way for him to take on high-level missions, Naye Cheng was not the type to be ungrateful.
Although he was not used to teaming up with others, since it was the other party's kindness and there were no other options, Naye Cheng could only agree.
"Miss Soya, we're here. What do you need us to help with? And is it true that if we really can help you this time, you will have dinner with me?"
Not long after Naye Cheng finished speaking, the few high-rank adventurers that Soya mentioned walked into the adventurer's guild. There were three of them, and the leader was a handsome blonde man.
The man seemed to be a fervent admirer of Soya, and this time, Soya had offered to have dinner with him as a reward to get his assistance.
"Rex, this is my younger brother from the countryside. He just registered as an adventurer today. He wants to experience the life of a high-rank adventurer, but I'm a bit worried, so I asked you to help."
Hearing Soya's words, the handsome blonde man named Rex immediately started thumping his chest. He had been pursuing Soya for quite some time, and such an opportunity to show off in front of his goddess was something he wouldn't miss.
Moreover, since this person was Miss Soya's younger brother, if he could show off his strength in front of him and make him a little admirer, wouldn't that speed up his progress in courting Miss Soya?
A mere youth from the countryside, what could he know? If he could show off his skills this time, the youth might even speak well of him in front of Miss Soya.
"Miss Soya, don't worry. I will take good care of your brother and let him experience the strength of a high-rank adventurer. By the way, where is your brother?"
Following Soya's gaze, Rex also looked at where Naye Cheng was standing, and at the same time, Naye Cheng's gaze landed on Rex and his companions.
"Miss Soya, he's the one you mentioned, your younger brother from the countryside...?"
When they saw Naye Cheng, Rex and his companions were really taken aback. They had not expected that in such a large town, they would encounter Naye Cheng again, and he was actually the beloved one's younger brother?
They were not wrong; the high-rank adventurers that Soya mentioned were indeed the few people named Rex. Naye Cheng had met them before, and to be precise, they had only parted ways not long ago.
The three people in front of him were none other than the adventurers who had planned to sell Shima Yousuke as a rare Beastman in the forest earlier.
After being thoroughly beaten by Naye Cheng, they had brought him and Yousuke to this town, and Naye Cheng had finally let them go.
"What's wrong? Do you know each other?" Seeing the surprised expressions on Naye Cheng and Rex's faces, Soya looked at Naye Cheng and asked in confusion.
"I guess you could say we know each other. I got lost in the forest earlier, and they brought me to this town."
"Um, they also gave me a big bag of copper coins, saying it was all their property..."
