Chapter 121: Killing the guild master hope
(edited by BigYoshi)
Inside the Comer city Adventurer’s Guild, Mofisu is sitting at the guild master room and sorting through the documents that is piled up on top of the desk like a mountain while grinning.

“Why do I feel bad every time I see you grinning?” (Edda)

Edda comes, pours out some more tea into the cup that had become empty and placed another pile of documents on the desk afterwards.

“Why? There is nothing wrong here. I am just feeling happy, thanks to the potion my hair is growing nicely.” (Mofisu)
Mofisu is now looking at his head using a mirror that is placed on top of the desk. He is grinning happily while looking at his growing hair but his grin is unpleasant.

“Also, can you tell me who the person that brought back materials and items from 「Enrio of Kusakai」 dungeon is?”(Edda)

Recently, there had been large amounts of material and items from 「Enrio of Kusakai」 dungeon delivered to the guild for appraisal. It was normal if it was gathered from a monthly dungeon raid however the amount of materials was sent on regular basis and the amount was enormous. Even for big clans, in Comer city only the ‘red meteor’ clan is able to gather such number but they won’t be able to do it continuously like what has happened. Since the items were always dropped and delivered to the adventurer’s guild by a merchant group so Edda and the rest doesn’t know who sent it except for the guild master.

“Hmm, for that matter, I couldn’t tell you who that person is.”(Mofisu)

“Why?”(Edda)

“Because I have made a promise.”(Mofisu)

“Hmph!”(Edda)
Edda then sent a deadly glare at Mofisu. Mofisu felt a little bit guilty and awkward in a hurry cleared his throat and resumed his work in sorting out documents.

“Speaking of which, guild master, do you know who planted the flowers in the garden?”(Edda)

Hearing that, Mofisu’s hand moved in a rigid motion as some of the documents fell to the ground.

“Oh dear, is there something wrong Oji-chan?”(Edda)

“N-n-n-no… and I am not an Oji-chan!”(Mofisu)

Edda then helped Mofisu to pick up the documents but when they crouched down, Mofisu always avoided eye contact with Edda. His sweat was also dropping faster.

“I was just curious that someone suddenly planted flowers in the garden. I always thought that the garden lacked something and actually it was flowers. Do you know who planted it? Was it some bored children? But I agree having more plants in the garden is a good thing.”(Edda)

“Yeah, if you say so, indeed it is a good thing.” (Mofisu)

“Alright then, I won’t disturb you any longer.”(Edda)
After that Edda left the guild master room while giving a polite bow. Mofisu then sunk deep in his chair as he let out a deep sigh.

“Fiuh… that was dangerous. That flower is the ingredient to make the potion for my hair that was given to me by Yu. I can’t let anyone know of this secret.” (Mofisu)
The flower in the garden, in fact, was planted by Mofisu. The plant was the ingredient for the hair potion. Yu had taught Mofisu how to extract the important life liquid from the petals for making the potion trough a special process. Also, because these flowers suck up more nutrients from the ground, Mofisu had been looking hard for the perfect place to plant it.

………………..

“I hope that these are enough. This is what we got.” (Nina)

Inside Wood’s workshop, Nina is covered with mud and monster blood, taking out materials and items from 「Wood garden」 dungeon on top of the work desk.

“This is all the loot that we could collect after three days inside the 「Wood garden」 dungeon. Wood-san , is this okay?” (Marifa)

“So, in these three days, how deep you go?” (Wood)

“…27th floor.” (Lena)

“When Yu was here, how deep?” (Wood)

“When Master was here, we reached the 52nd floor in two days.” (Marifa)
Marifa replied to Wood’s question in a somewhat proud manner.

“So, was Yu’s role a vanguard? Shield bearer too? What was his job?” (Wood)

“Well, Yu is our front liner, shield bearer, he is also in charge of 【White Magic】, 【Enchant Magic】, and… 【Awareness】 as in search operations I guess..” (Nina)

“…taking care of food, fire, resting place, and also night guard.” (Lena)

“My master took care of both the offense and defense at the same time, auxiliary, recovery, base making, scouts, even all of our equipment and necessities were prepared by him, including information gathering of the dungeon.” (Marifa)

Wood’s mouth was gaping open in amazement. Yu’s party was kind of abnormal and distorted. Usually each role that Yu took, front liner, shield bearer, scout, back liner, recovery, enchant, unlocking trap and mapping dungeon is divided into several people but Yu took all of those roles alone.

“So, had Yu also done things like salvaging the material? And basically he was carrying you girls on his back on a piggyback ride. Alright, just show me the material.” (Wood)

“This is all from the 「Wood garden」 dungeon.” (Nina)

“I don’t know anymore. These items are all so useless. Look, the stems of the 「Anemonoid」 are dry, the 「Dragon fly」 wings have cuts on the surface at a critical place. This 「Mad mantis」 sickle is broken, it is useless as it can’t be used unless it is in a good condition. The worst things is the state of the plants that you collected. When Yu was here, he must have been doing all this stuff for you too. I wish that he would return to a party with higher rank adventurers or even a major clan. His ability would be even more appreciated.” (Wood)

Nina wanted to deny those but what Wood said was the truth. She can only look at Woods with a bright red face and inflated cheeks. Lena could only smile wryly but didn’t say anything. Marifa as usual didn’t show any facial expression or emotion, only her ears were twitching.

“Alright, alright, next time, I will work harder to show to Wood-san that I deserved the items that Yu entrusted to you.” Nina then goes out from the shop after saying that.

Yu really wanted to give the girls the equipment, but Woods now realized how the girls were too dependent on him and wanted to change it. He wanted to make the girls grow up and realized how much Yu impacted their party.

…..

A week had passed since Nina came to Wood’s workshop. Wood’s shop is still putting up a closed sign outside however he never stopped working while wielding his hammer regardless of day or night.

“Wood-san~”
Wood stopped his work when he heard a familiar voice calling out for him.

“Oh, long time no see. I thought you had given up or ran away to Yu’s room again.”

Towards Wood’s provocation Nina didn’t really care and put up a smile.

“Wood-san, how can we do such a thing. I will never give up.” (Marifa)
“… do you want me to burn your beard?” (Lena)
“Wood-san, we have come here to prove our ability again.” (Nina)

“Ooh! So, have you learned enough that all this time you were all freeloaders and depended on Yu only? I am looking forward to whether you can convince me. Speaking of which, this beard is my life!”

Hearing Woods angry sentence, Lena quickly hides behind Nina. Nina then takes out an item bag and takes out the materials and items on top of the desk.

“This… oh…”
From the item bag Nina took out monster’s material one by one. At this time, all of the monster parts were treated with care, if it was brought to the adventurer’s guild, it could fetch a good price. Half-moon flower, honey sap, rose stem, all of the loot were in a perfect condition.

“Ehehe~ so what do you think about this?”

“Fufufu… fuwahahaha! I can’t believe that you girls really managed to do it. Alright, wait here!”
Wood then moved to the back of the shop while still laughing. Meanwhile Nina and the girls are looking at each other and smiled.

……….

“Fufufufu~ Flowers-chan, I wonder how you are doing today?”
Mofisou is smiling like crazy as he is moving towards the garden where he planted his flowers.

“WWHAAATT!!”

“Guild master, why are you being so loud? Your voice might kill the plants.”

“Wha-wha-wha… Edda, what is that flower that you planted?”

“It’s mint. It is a relatively easy plant to grow as it’s life force is strong.”
Mint is a resilient plant, even after you pull it out from the ground it can still grow for some time due to its strong fecundity. However due to it’s traits, it often expels the other flowers growing in the area near itself, which is why mint is usually grown on pots.

“Oh master, why don’t you drink tea first and relax. Oh, the flowers around it seemed to have withered. Guild master, do you know what is wrong? Guild master? Why is your complexion looking bad? Guild master… your hair, it’s falling out.”

“No, not my hair! WHUAAA!!!”
After that, Mofisu’s scream could be heard resonating all around the adventurer’s guild area. In Mofisu mind, he should really not hide anything from Edda.

Let’s see the next chapter is there any other maokami if not then let’s deal with Coro, he has evolved somehow? And his level has dropped down from 23 to 18….. wtf)

27 comments on “TDADP chapter 121

  1. From the way you typed it, the original text is probably”魔狼”. This means demon wolf, with “魔” meaning magic, or demonic, and “狼” meaning wolf.

  2. why not just admit that yu did everything and everyone else just exp leecher ? also it’s good to see character sheet after a while.

    • yep.. their positions was =stalking, ecchi, level mooching leeches, second job -weaker target enemy attractant. Attribute: Tragedy bait lvl 99, attribute: anxiety inducer lvl 80. Except Marfi who was already defending his sleep and purposely taking the few jobs he didnt often fufill. She was getting corrupted having to compete with two dead weights throwing their boobs on him all the time… < _ < How lena even became Thunder witch mere weeks later without him is author using the Mary Sue wand on companion character voted least likely to naturally level. Remember that worthless bagage started the battle that had him decide to leave, went oom and was in hands of enemy faction and he has not been gone but about 2 months? Been in this world about 8?
      Nina is only a but better knowing him a whole 6-ish months and she made a feint of helpless ness to get close, than of course was a warm body near when his only benefactor in this world seemed to die. Since she had made it to levels (7 was it) before meeting him (Though she was only survivor of team wipe. betcha at least part of team expired to allow her escape…. I bet a dolla!). In RL that would be a type of coercion and child exploitation. Since his being the barely legal 13 is not something proveable and he is slight being japanese. Some want to think he is bad for dumping them…. if they were not so useless and careless, he would likely have dumped them earlier when he bought the house. Remember he bought house to leave them at Inn, why he didnt care its condition or location even if he did want size. If he was not so dysfunctional he would have run off from Inn to another country and start over!
      Realistically, who even does so much for companions you only knew a few months ? Except to not feel responsible for their deaths? He feels that they are in danger because him… 1/2 right. If they loved him or even cared to call him a lil bro, they would relocate and do normal adventuring, stop bringing him nup and getting undue attention so he could actually drop by sometimes….? using money banked n guild for overhead expenses. He is forced to protect them further becuase they defied his order to sell HIS house and stayed there. – _ –

  3. Cool~~ well~ author isn’t a god, so unless you say it to him in the comment of the syosetu he will knew it later~~

    Any way~~ you’ve a very very very fabulous job~~

    Thank you for the chappy:*

  4. How is Nina still the strongest after her burying herself in clothes for a while when everyone else was clearing dungeons?

    • Maybe because they are less efficient without Yu, and we need to remember that Marifa was in 20s level before so 1 month is quite good for her leveling up. For Lena, yes, it’s weird after 20 days of dungeon diving to get only 1 level but she level up her skills wich is quite difficult if you’re not Yu.
      So, the higher the slower for the levels but it’s a little extem case for Lena I think.

    • For Marifa it’s 2 levels and, add andgrowth of skills. Furthermore, we can add 10 days with Nina in this chapter without her leveling up so we can suppose that without Yu they show us a “normal” leveling up ?

      • Yea! At least she hasnt been starting trouble and has been dungeneering proper, her level rise makes sense. Marfi is my favorite among his “harem”. She is not crazy Tsundere and always will decide on the option that gets him the most rest, safety, reputation. She wasnt dead weight except her original inexperience, she works hard. She doesnt need to wear a score of magic items to be functional and is race suited to magic. Lena leveling has been mary Sue to the 5th power more than MC! She is human, and not adult. She needs to go to academy or go home. If not for Yuu she would have long been dead or captured by slave traders while making the money for that tuition fee she mentioned. Dumped that ambition when she got her free ride. I realllly hate that character and was hoping she would be a tragic loss to swear revenge for. Nina I do not like but her niche was okay. Not a complete deadweight. I am sure she could level at the normal pace without Yuu. She is however the thief that was causing problems in his hometown. it may even be why her former party wiped. He being suddenly afraid of men later was bizarre after he prior behavior before she played helpless to the trio of lower leveled inexperienced retards from his village in order to be saved by him.

  5. For Lena that Staff Surgery should be Staff Mastery a think.

    I think Edda did that to the plant on purpose to punish/harass the guild master. I could even believe that she is the traitor who leaks information. She was trying to find out the source of the loot from the Enrio of Kusakai dungeon (or just proof that it was really Yu).

    Thanks for the chapters 🙂

  6. Since the first time I meet Wood in the story I love this guy ! And I love this guy even more after this chapter !
    He is the best side caracter in my opinion ! ^^
    All Hail for The Dwarf ! XD

    And thanks For your work ! 😉

  7. I’m Glad Woody called those girls out on their dependence on Yu, it really was stunting their growth like crazy.
