An invincible journey starting from a different race

Is this such a stingy Aesop?

Well, thinking about it carefully, Aesop didn't seem that stingy. Although this guy was naturally black, a scoundrel, and a lecher, pure and simple lechery, he didn't have any other shortcomings. Especially at this time, he was generous with his money, which made Stank and Jer feel that she... Hey, why does this hundred gold look a little familiar?

Of course, gold coins and other things are all the same, so the two of them didn't look at them carefully and happily agreed to eat them. It would be a waste not to eat them.

Only Gan Qiu was still standing there in anger, muttering over and over again: "This is all my money! This is all my money!"

But he didn't dare let Jer and Stank hear it.

"This isn't going to work," Stank said after ordering. "We're running around like this, and we're not bringing in any income. Even if we have more money, it'll all be gone."

"Yeah, I still need to find something to do and take on commissions and missions along the way," Jer said. "This tavern should have commissions too. I'll just take a look around... Hmm, is this a beef restaurant? That's really rare. I'll have a bowl of beef noodles then."

Gan Qiu said in a muffled voice: "Just a steak will do."

"I have the same as Ganqiu," said Stanker, "but I want to add milk. What about you, Aesop?"

"Burp~" Aesop couldn't help but burp even louder.

Can you elaborate on this?

"Hey~ These guests look unfamiliar, are you new here?" Just as the four of them were happily enjoying the whole-beef feast, a cat-eared beast girl came over with a smile, holding a brochure in her hand. She looked like a staff member of this tavern. "Look at your decorations... Are you all adventurers? Are you interested in taking on any commissions here?"

The four of them looked at each other.

I didn't expect that I was just thinking about where to take on tasks and commissions to make some extra money, and now someone has delivered them to me directly.

"Are you the poster girl of the Adventurer's Guild here?" Stank was shouting "Beef", so his words were vague.

The cat-eared beast girl said, "I can be."

"Oh, since you are... huh? Wait, what do you mean you can be?!" Stank discovered Hua Dian.

"Oh, it's pretty close." The cat-eared beast girl said, "I also applied for a position at the Adventurer's Guild back then, and I was just a little bit short of passing."

"Doesn't that mean I still didn't pass?" Gan Qiu was puzzled. "But that doesn't make sense. How can someone fail to become the poster girl for the Adventurer's Association? Isn't it generally true that as long as you apply, you're guaranteed to pass?"

"Yeah, that's what I thought, so I applied for the job." The cat-eared beast girl said, "I even wanted to take advantage of the interviewer."

"And then?" Jer asked, "Did you still fail after diving?"

"Yes, because the interviewer said that everyone was lurking, and I was the worst among all the unspoken rules." The cat-eared beast girl stuck out her tongue playfully, "So I didn't pass. It's not that I haven't beaten those who came to apply seriously! I just didn't beat those guys who used the same unspoken rules as me."

"...So you're proud of this?" Stank said, a little confused. "But what are you proud of?"

"I went diving, which means I put in the effort." The cat-eared beast girl put her hands on her hips, as if she didn't know what an opponent was. "And those who didn't go diving and applied seriously didn't want this position as badly as I did! It means they didn't work as hard as I did! Doesn't that make me proud for a while?"

The four of them looked at each other.

I always feel that this cat-eared girl's head is not normal.

No wonder I didn't pass the interview.

Because in their impression, the Adventurer's Guild's poster girl was someone who could be hired easily, provided their appearance wasn't too bad. And this cat-eared beast girl, who looked incredibly cute no matter how you looked at her, was rejected. It wasn't that the job was too demanding, but rather that this person was simply too out of their mind.

"Ahem, it's okay. I'm still doing the job I wanted, right?" The cat-eared girl herself was quite open-minded and said nonchalantly, "My name is Lena. I'm the hostess, supervisor, kitchen staff, and waitress of the Adventurer's Association here. Please give me your guidance."

Facing Lena, who held several positions, Stank asked, "But didn't you just say you weren't the poster girl for the Adventurer's Guild?"

"But didn't I just say that I can do this?" the cat-eared girl said. "Hehe, I'm not trying to argue with you. This street was just established not long ago, so the Adventurer's Association doesn't have an official branch here, so I set up one on my own to help my neighbors. So most of the work here is done by myself, but don't worry, I've registered with the Adventurer's Association."

厀“…They agreed?”

"They didn't agree." The cat-eared girl said, "But I've already reported it, and after much persuasion, they didn't object."

...What a persistent girl.

"Hey everyone, don't worry too much. Although small, it has everything you need." Lena patted her flat chest. "It may be small here, but it has everything you need. The information from the Adventurer's Association will be shared with me, and I will settle the rewards properly, so everyone can just take the quests here with peace of mind."

Hearing Lena say this, everyone couldn't help but look at her chest, and then felt that her words just now seemed to have some double meaning in them.

"Alright, alright." Stank waved his hand and said, "We don't care about that kind of thing. As long as there are missions to take, that's fine. Do you have any missions that would be suitable for us to do? Preferably one that pays well."

"You've come to the right person." Lena gave Stank a thumbs-up. "No one here knows more about commissions and missions than I do."

...Isn't it because you're the only member of the Adventurer's Guild in charge of this matter? Oh, and not a real member, but a fake one.

"Let me flip through it," Lena began flipping through her pamphlet. "This is a commission from the 'Happy Cow Ranch.' The cows there have recently developed breast hyperplasia, and they're hoping for experienced adventurers to come and treat them. Those with good hand skills can get a 20% discount coupon, and those who complete the task can get a buy-one-get-one-free coupon."

After hearing Lena read out the first task, several people felt that something was not right.

"A request from 'Pansi Cave'. Want to experience the Nightmare Shop Battle Royale mode? Come on over if you're interested. Please help us verify the playability of this mode. The reward is a 50% discount coupon..."

"A request from the 'One-Eyed Mansion'. Do you want to be stared to death by one eye? If so, then..."

"Wait, wait." Stank had to interrupt Lena, "What are you reading?"

"Ah?" Lena raised her head from the booklet. "She's reading the commission."

"Are you reading out a commission?!" Stank said with an expression that said, "Can you please stop treating us like fools?" "Aren't you just reading out those advertisements for the Nightmare Shop?!"

"But their commission is to have adventurers go to their shop to taste it."

"Is this considered a commission?!"

"Of course this is a commission!" Lena said seriously, "There's a request, there's a reward, how can this not be a commission?"

"Do you call these coupons rewards?"

"Just tell me whether I helped you save money," Lena said. "If I helped you save money, wouldn't that be the same as helping you make money? And if I helped you make money, wouldn't that be a normal reward?"

Lena's explanation left everyone stunned.

Why does it sound... pretty damn reasonable?

"That's up to you. We won't accept these commissions anyway." Jer waved his hand and said to Stank, "After all, this isn't a formal Adventurer's Guild, so we can't expect too much. Let's wait until we get to a formal Adventurer's Guild before accepting any quests."

"Hey, hey, hey, you can't say that. My place is quite formal." Lena said a little aggrievedly, "After all, this is a small place. There are no dungeons around. It's naturally difficult to come across big commissions. There are only small commissions like this."

"You still call this a commission?! Don't insult the commission, you bastard!" Stank was really fed up. "Do you really think anyone would take this kind of commission?"

Lena pointed to her side. "Look, doesn't your friend look like he's eager to get to the next thing?"

Everyone turned around and found Aesop flipping through the commissioned booklet with great interest.

At this moment, as if he had noticed something, he looked up at everyone, then tilted his head and asked Lena: "This 'Dairy Ranch' commission..."

"I beg you to stop me, Elder Yi!" Stank grabbed Aesop's neck and began shaking him frantically. "Can you stand with us for a moment now? Ah? Can you stand with us for a moment?"

"Okay, then I won't watch it."

Aesop felt a little regretful. He had originally wanted to ask Lena if the 20% discount coupon could be used after the sale. If so, then if he returned to the "Cow Ranch" now, could he still get some money back? Then he could return part of it to Stank and the others.

But seeing how excited Stank is, let's just forget it.

It's not his money anyway.

"Don't you have any commissions that are paid in gold coins?" Jer turned to look at Lena and asked, "I won't say anything else. Sending me 20% or 50% off coupons is too deceptive. It's just a promotion, not a commission reward at all. We need money now, so please screen them. Of course, you have to pay us! Don't come up with rewards that we have to pay for."

"Oh, if you need money, you should have told me earlier." Lena patted her flat chest again, "I have some here too. Or rather, as a professional poster girl, what kind of tasks don't I have? Let me look for it..."

As she searched, everyone stared at her chest.

It's not that I'm having any lustful thoughts or anything.

But it should be said that in this world, it is rare to find something so flat and clear.

"Ah, I found it." Lena raised her head again. "This is a request from sixteen nightmare ladies. They hope to find a strong man to satisfy their needs..."

"Shut up!"

"another!"

"Say that again and I'll kill you!"

Stank, Jer and Ganqiu immediately launched a set of three-component attacks.

Damn, do you really think they are fools?

This sounded like a trap set by a low-level nightmare demon! There were sixteen of them, so the four of them would just be filling the gaps.

"We're not here to be gigolos!" Stank said impatiently. "We're adventurers. Do you have any quests for adventurers?"

"Well, this is indeed difficult." Lena said, "There's one guy who should be an adventurer, but he has no money."

"What are you talking about if you don't have any money?"

"Okay." Lena shrugged and said, "I thought you would be interested in the idea of having exclusive access to Atlantis's ocean harem while you complete your mission."

Lena was about to turn the power of attorney to the next page when suddenly a hand stopped her.

"Wait." Stank said seriously, "You can tell me more about this."

337 How do you prove that you are Sandan?

"Uh, are you actually interested in this commission?" Lena glanced down at the commission again, and then said, "This commission is probably to protect a group of mermaids, but there is no reward, that is, no money. Don't you want money?"

"Look at what you're saying," Stank said sternly. "As adventurers, protecting the weak is our mission and our duty. Money doesn't really matter. The main thing is... ahem, we're very interested in this order. Can you please give us more details?"

"A detailed introduction... not a particularly detailed one," Lena said. "They only have one request."

"any request?"

"Come on, strong one." Lena said, "very strong one..."

Just as Stank was about to speak, Gan Qiu raised his hand, interrupting Stank. He then turned to look at Lena and asked, "Why don't you explain it more clearly. What kind of strong man is this?"

"Uh." Lena scratched her head and said, "He's just a very powerful person."

"Which aspect of strength?"

"As an adventurer, what other strengths can you possibly possess? Of course, it's combat ability," Lena said. "Could it be in bed? Seriously..."

Gan Qiu heaved a sigh of relief: "Then I feel relieved."

And in the next second, he slammed the table and stood up.

"So you're talking about combat prowess, right? Then just look for us brothers. We're very good at this and are absolutely strong."

"Is this true?" Lena looked at Gan Qiu with suspicion, "I don't think you are a very powerful person."

Gan Qiu instantly became furious and slapped the table again: "Asshole! You can question my speed, my shortness, and even my odd number of balls..."

"Well, I'm not questioning you on that. And what the hell is an odd number of eggs..."

"Shut up!" Gan Qiu shouted angrily, "You can question me about anything! But you can't question my fighting ability as an adventurer. Um... look at this!"

Gan Qiu pointed at the harmless Aesop standing beside him and said.

"Just by looking at him, you should know he's not very powerful, right? But so what? He and I will join forces and kill everyone! We can crush all the monsters, demons, kings, and heroes!"

Lena turned and looked at Aesop, and it seemed that he was not very convincing either.

"Alright, alright." Seeing the conversation getting more and more chaotic, Jel had no choice but to step forward and interrupt Gan Qiu. He then said to Lena, "Can't you see our adventurer levels? Several of us are all S-level, the highest level... Oh, there's only this one who's B-level, but he went straight to B-level after just taking the evaluation. You should know that the initial evaluation is the gold content of B-level."

The B that Jer was referring to was naturally Aesop.

"Even if you say so..." Lena scratched her head and said, "I don't really understand. After all, I'm not an official poster girl, so I don't have any data from the Adventurer's Association. How about this, tell me your nicknames in the Adventurer's Association, maybe I've heard of them."

Everyone looked at each other.

Do you say your own nickname?

This behavior is too shameful.

For a moment, several people didn't know how to start.

Fortunately, Aesop came out to the rescue and asked Lena, "Have you read Aesop's Fables?"

Hey, hey, hey, something more embarrassing is coming.

Why would you go to such a remote place and ask someone if they've read your book? They don't even know the rules of the Adventurer's Guild, how could they possibly have read it...

"Aesop's Fables? Of course I've read them!" Lena's eyes lit up instantly at the mention of the name. She immediately slid over to Aesop and chattered, "Let me tell you, I'm a devoted reader of this book! I've read every issue and every volume without missing a single one. It's so fascinating. Oh, I didn't expect you to read it too. In that case, we're in the same boat. Hehe, if we're so destined, I won't secretly charge you twice as much for this meal."

Hey, hey, hey...you profiteer, have you revealed something?!

"Since you've read that book, it's easy to explain." Aesop pointed at himself and said, "Because I wrote it."

Lena was slightly stunned: "You wrote it?"

"Yes." Aesop nodded and said, "My name is Aesop."
