157. Chapter 156: Is there a plan?
Chapter 156: Is there a plan?
Rod handed the task list and the IOU to Mira: “Although the task is completed, I didn’t get paid.”
Mira asked curiously: “What happened?”
Rod told her about the client’s family situation.
“Since you have made this judgment, then there is no problem.” Mira smiled and said, “Keep this IOU.”
Rod waved his hand: “Leave it with you, or in the guild. I am worried that I will lose it if I take it home.”
”Okay.” Mira did not refuse, “The mission is confirmed to be completed. Can you tell me about the mission process?”
Elfman said: “Sister, I want to go home and rest first.”
”Well, I bought apples and persimmons yesterday and put them in the living room.”
”I know.”
Mira watched Elfman leave and asked Rod: “You seem very tired. Do you want to rest first?”
”I don’t need it.” Rod hesitated, “Elfman has a special reason.”
I agreed to take him out to relax, but he ended up being listless. I felt like I couldn’t explain to the child’s parents.
Mira asked with concern: “Are you injured?”
Rod shook his head: “No.”
”That’s good.” Mira smiled, “Whatever happened, just tell me.”
”Oh oh oh…” An energetic Natsu rushed in from outside the guild, and he slapped the task list on the counter, “Mira, I’m done!”
Happy flew over with a new task list: “Love! Next is this task!”
”Okay~” Mira registered for them.
Rod asked: “Don’t you want to take a break?”
”No time to rest! Eh? Rod, are you here?” Natsu seemed to have just seen him, “I won’t lose to you even if I complete the commission!”
”I don’t want to compete with you…”
”Let’s go, Happy!” Seeing Mira finish registering, Natsu ran out in a flash.
“Love!”
Rod smiled, feeling refreshed: “By the way, Natsu won’t destroy anything again, will he?”
Mira thought for a moment: “Shouldn’t he? Even Natsu will be very careful with commissions during this period.”
So he is usually careless on purpose? ! Makarov strolled down from the second floor: “Rod is back, how is it this time?”
“Not bad, although there are some minor problems, but the client is very satisfied with the result.”
“That’s good.” Makarov was also very satisfied, this child of Rod is really reassuring.
”By the way, President, I brought back a few local herbs, can you please pass them on to Grandma Polyusica?”
Rod recently decided not to give Grandma Polyusica medical expenses, always feeling that she would beat him out if he took the money.
It’s better to bring back some special herbs or seeds every time you go out. Just like the last time I brought back a bag of seeds from the Cat Inn.
This way, it is not easy to be rejected, it can satisfy the old man’s hobbies, and it can also increase the guild’s drug reserves.
The plan worked.
Mira finished the work at hand and picked up her coat: “Rod, can you accompany me for a while?”
”Well… OK, what about the things here?”
Mira looked at Makarov: “President, let’s go out for a while, please take care of this place.”
”Well.” Makarov jumped onto the counter and sat cross-legged, holding his chin with one hand, always feeling that he shouldn’t come down.
With fewer people in the guild, these two people going out together became more conspicuous.
Wakaba enviously said: “Mira, how about considering dating me occasionally?” ”Isn’t your wife very good to you?” Mira raised a hand with a smile.
”No, no, no…” Wakaba saw what she was going to do, “Please don’t become like that!”
Mira stopped, she didn’t really want to change now.
Rhode thought that he would go to Uncle Wakaba to ask for some combat tips when he had time.
The combat experience of veteran wizards is very valuable. Maybe he can quickly find out the shortcomings of his tactics of “surrounding monsters and attacking the main body from behind”.
The weather in Magnolia is getting colder and colder, and winter is coming soon.
It takes more than a week to make a coat made by the tailor, and it will be almost ready by then.
Mira only put on the dress she usually wears when she went out.A short coat.
Rhode didn’t quite understand this way of dressing, and wondered if she had some magic specifically for keeping her legs warm.
Thinking about the previous experience on the snowy mountain, when magic power is sufficient, it seems that the ability to resist cold is inherently stronger? The number of businesses on both sides of the street did not decrease due to the cold weather. On the contrary, there were more vendors selling seasonal fruits and vegetables.
Winter clothes in clothing stores were placed in the most conspicuous position, and some magic stores also launched various magic props for heating or boiling water in winter.
The hot products are naturally recommended by the Wizard Weekly.
Rhode remembered that today is Wednesday, the day when the new issue of Soshara is released. In addition, Mira seems to have not taken a photo for a while.
At the same time as being disappointed, she was more secretly happy.
Heh, man.
”Are you going to buy something?” Before leaving, Rhode didn’t even ask what she was doing today.
“Well, one of the guild’s lamps is broken, and last year’s heater is not working well. We plan to change to a new style this year, and then…”
Mira listed the things she needed one by one. Many of them were trivial things, but she remembered them all.
She looked particularly good when she was serious.
As the assistant to the president who manages almost all the logistical affairs of the guild, she is actually like a housekeeper. She is able to manage such a noisy guild in an orderly manner, which is inseparable from her credit.
Rhode was a little curious about who was in charge of these things before, the president?
”There are so many things to do before winter.”
”Of course.” Mira stopped, “Let’s start from here.”
”Okay…” Rhode looked up. Isn’t this a coffee shop?
”Didn’t I say I would treat you to coffee before?” Mira smiled, “Or come next time?”
”Just this time.” Rhode thought, since he was here, he should give her face.
The two found a place to sit down and ordered their favorite coffee and snacks.
After chatting about the gossip in the guild, Rod finally brought up the matter of Elfman.
Although she promised not to tell others about his crying… Is Mira considered someone else? After struggling for a while, Rod decided to skip that part and save some face for Elfman.
”So this happened.” Mira thought about it carefully and felt that it should be a good thing, “Thank you.”
Rod smiled bitterly: “I’m still thinking about how to explain it to you.”
”This is a very important process.” Mira said seriously, “Elfman and I should thank you.”
Mira even suspected that this person had a plan to help Elfman.
Rod shook his head gently, this time it was just a coincidence.
Mira asked with concern: “By the way, you said you wanted to earn a living, right? What should I do next if I didn’t get paid this time?”
Rod thought for a while and said: “Try to take some commissions within Magnolia. I think it’s nice to experience it occasionally.”
