Poor Noble Nod's Adventure Volume 1 Chapter 4

It has been two weeks since Nod was promoted to the norma plate adventurer.

During this time, Nod continued to receive subjugation request in the dungeon dungeon using armor rented from his brother.

It's a really tedious thing to go to dungeon and go hunting monsters such as goblins and giant bats every day. It's more mental than physical fatigue.

However, Nod continued subjugation without feeling such thing like fatigue.

After competing for the guild request early in the morning and completing the request  procedure, he goes to the dungeon specified in the request form. After collecting the magic stones before the evening falls, sell the magic stones at the dungeon market office (in the dungeon managed by the kingdom, it is prohibited by law to take magic stones outside ilegally). And then he returns to the capital before the sun goes down.

This was become a routine work for the past two weeks for Nod, but unfortunately this day was over today.

The reason is that big brother Albireo, the owner of the armor will be on duty again.

No matter how low-threat monsters you are dealing with, even normal monsters are strong opponents for newly promoted slate-cla.s.s adventurers.

This is the result of using armor tactic meta (although it is a borrowed item) to attacks monster with low power, and if the essential armor can no longer be borrowed, the efficiency of this tactic will drop significantly.

Therefore, Nod continued to subdue the monsters at a faster pace than ever before until his brother last vacation.

Nodavoids goblin dagger blows by shifting his body.

At the same time, he swung his sword and uses the power of the goblin's rush,so he can  attacks the goblin's neck without any effort.

He then kicks the body of a goblin who has lost his neck, so the corpse will crash into another goblin that tried to attacks him from the other side.

" Gi!?"

The corpse crashed to the goblin who attacks Nod before disappearing, Nod then run to goblin who collapsed, and with one sword swing, the goblin was killed easily.

“Gigi …”

The last goblin who attacks Nod with its friend, showed a rush of movement after its friend is defeated by Nod so the situation became one on one.

It 's probably thingking about run away or not.

However, Nod doesn't miss that opportunity.

The instant goblin showed delayed the reaction to the Nod's sword and Nod attacks the goblin neck, just like that last goblin is dead.

After the battle ended, Nod recovers magic stones that left after the corpse disappeared, searching carefully for the surrounding situation.

Even so, Nod thinks while throwing a magic stone into the bag tied to his waist.

In the last two weeks of subjugation, his armor was often attacked by surprise and blind spot by monsters. And then, there were situations where his sword was out of force due to some strange power, or his attacks was shallow or missed because of his weird posture when attacking.

But how about it?

By continuing to fight while wearing unfamiliar armor, he became accustomed to standing around when wearing armor, and was able to avoid surprise attak even in narrow place.

In particular, there was no experience of dealing with multiple enemies at the same time at first, and it was forced to struggle, but the armor is no helping like in the beginning.

Now it is possible to see the movement completely, and it is easy to end the battle without getting a single blow.

His sword is good shape, and if he fights a goblin, his attacks won't miss

And ──

Hyuuh

He pulls the sword out of the scabbard down without any preparatory action.

Sword makes wind,

-Splat- The corpse of a giant bat divided into two, fell to the ground and leaving a small magic stone on the spot.

(His is light. He wonders if his sharpness has improved. And he also feels that his five senses are heightened.)

The  dungeon that he goes now is dungeon is now managed by the kingdom to some extent.

As the name dungeon,  its inside is dim cave and the outlook is bad.

Nevertheless, Nod can clearly see the inside of the dungeon. Of course it was dim, but the rock surface of the cave and the feel of the ground looked clearer.

── Level Up

 That word came to Nods mind.

When you gain experience in combat, you will come to realize that you are one step stronger than you were before. This is called level up, that is what happened to him.

Nod was promoted to a normal plate adventurer, and he had been  doing subjugation quest and collecting maagic stone, of course, there was an aim to make money using the advantage by using borrowed  armor from his big brother, but that was not the only one.

Actually, unlike the natural dungeon dungeon, the artificial dungeon where the nod is now subjugating monster isn't good.

That's because the magic stone itself is in demand, so it sells at a reasonable price, but in an artificial dungeon like this, the manager buys it at a cheap price to monopolize the magic stone and since the administrator is the kingdom, it is strictly prohibited to counter or smuggle it.

Also, in fact, the request to subdue the dungeon dungeon will lead to supplying magic stones to the market, but it is basically the kingdom income, so the adventurer's guild has little work merit.

Therefore, the request for subjugation of the dungeon dungeon is not given the "contribution" necessary for the adventurer to be promoted. (The subjugation in the artificial dungeon is a popular request because if you can defeat the monsters in the dungeon dungeon without any difficulty  and compared to outside adventures, it 's less dangerous and you can earn more there).

For adventurers, promotion to a higher adventurer has great benefits (becomes able to receive more "delicious" requests),  so good adventurers with a plan to retiring adventurers (but since it does not take a risk, it may be ridiculed by some), other than, basically, it is better to receive a guild request with a “contribution”.

Furthermore, only the sales price of the magic stone is a reward for the request in the dungeon, but the achievement of the monster subjugation outside is paid.

Depending on the type of monster, you may be able to obtain a valid item drop item that can be collected from the corpse, and if you include the sale price, you may earn more than the subjugation request in the dungeon.

Nod knows that too.

Despite this, why did the Nod still chooses subjugation request in the dungeon?

Of course, there was an estimate that a lot of magic stones could be collected by the armor effect strat. But beyond that, Nod prioritizes to getting used to the battle safely.

In the Ferris family, boys are trained with sword skills from an early age. Of course, Nod is not an exception, and has been helped by his father, two older brothers, and his followers.

Nods seems to have talent for swords, and his skill in swordsmanship has improved so much that he hasn't been attending military school, but he has been praised for having a skillful military skill.

However, the sword leaders he studied - especially fathers and followers who have been in combat, always included:

The arm of the sword is similar to the arm of the war. The arm of a sword that can be trained by swinging or practicing can only be used after having gained experience in actual battles. If you forget it, even if one person can be cut, the next one will be cut.

Nod who was always heard that when grew up, rented his armor and received a request to subdue the dungeon in order to gain a relatively safe experience.

And that plan worked.

Nod did not lose his life in his first subjugation request, and he became a little stronger by gaining experience in actual battles.

Moreover, thanks to the armor, he was able to save money without getting injury and not paying for treatment.  (Armor rental fee is just a bit less than that)

Thanks to that, his income from  his subjugation request in the last two weeks has risen to a reasonable amount ifor someone who just promoted to a normal plate adventurer.

The amount of money reached the amount that Nod was targeting for the time being.

Author Note:

Node's first level up.

Personally, I like the type of play that raises the level and stuff.

TN: a little bit late because my stomach keep pumping s.h.i.t lol
