"Goblins?"
Mailu's teammates looked at her in surprise.
"We're going to fight goblins?"
"Mm... that's what Mr. Fang Zheng suggested."
After hearing Fang Zheng's suggestion, Mailu found her companions and conveyed his words to them. Of course, she wasn't foolish enough to reveal Fang Zheng's true identity. She merely said that he was from the same hometown as her and was a senior adventurer, which was why he had given them the advice.
"But... goblins seem pretty weak, don't they? We've taken jobs clearing out wild goblins before."
The Knight girl voiced her confusion, and the others nodded as well. They had encountered goblins in the wild before and hadn't found those creatures particularly formidable.
"Anyway, this was Mr. Fang Zheng's suggestion, and I think it makes sense. Crimson Vow was only formed recently, and we really do need to learn a lot about being adventurers, right? Since he gave us this advice, I think we should accept it."
"Mm... if Mailu says so..."
After discussing it, they decided to follow Mailu's advice. After all, it was a recommendation from a veteran adventurer, so there had to be some reason behind it. They were only a newly formed adventuring party and were still merely Porcelain Rank, while Priestess and the others were Obsidian Rank adventurers. Naturally, the latter had more experience.
Thus, Mailu brought her teammates to Priestess and the others, then relayed Fang Zheng's instructions. Mailu and the others had originally thought it was just a perfectly ordinary commission, but to their surprise, Priestess and her two companions changed expressions the moment Mailu finished speaking. Megumi even sprang to her feet.
"Why?! Why do we have to go exterminate goblins? We haven't done anything wrong lately, have we?! I've even been casting Explosion Magic somewhere with no people around
