Life In Another World - 40 Gellis
The next following event. When the efficiency of the mana potion dissipated, Kiro shifted his attention to Rosaleen who was observing the far off distance of the forest solemnly.
“Ms. Rosie, can you please tell me why you are here?” Kiro said, though he already knew the answer to his question. Still, he couldn’t help to ask so.
Only when Kiro voiced out the question. Only then Alina realized how odd it was for Rosaleen to be present in this place.
Hearing Kiro’s question. Rosaleen thought for a moment before responding. “Your Master and I were acquaintances. He dragged me here to show off his disciple capabilities.” She said while shifting her gaze toward Kiro.
“But you have to keep it a secret, okay? Your Master forbids me to tell you he was the one who rescued you.” Rosaleen said facetiously as she gently winked at him.
Seeing her playful behavior, Kiro was stunned momentarily. Then, as if trying to regain his dignity, Kiro faced her bewitching figure without flinching. “—Then can I know what happened?”
Kiro mustered all of his strength just to say those words. He still couldn’t handle Rosaleen’s otherworldly beauty.
“Humph!” Fixie snorted at him in dissatisfaction.
Staring at his silly expression, Rosaleen giggled slightly as she said. “Though your Master may seem to be strict. But he truly cared for your well being.” After saying that, Rosaleen shifted her gaze toward the Goblin’s Settlement.
“Yeah, he is a kind person. A type of person who will observe your growth in the shadow…” Rosaleen muttered those words only audible to herself as her eyes flashed with nostalgia.
Noticing that she spaced out for a moment Rosaleen cough softly. “Mm—in short, your Master is a worry rat, that is the reason why we are here.”
Seeing her perplexed reaction. Kiro didn’t want to make things difficult for her, as he said. “Okay, thank you for answering my question, Ms. Rosie.” While saying that Kiro glanced at Alina who was tilting her head in puzzlement.
“Alina, you can now give me another flask of the mana potion.” With his sudden request. Kiro awakened the confused Alina.
“Mm, okay please stay still.” She said as she opened the small azure crystal vial. Then she poured the content to Kiro’s mouth.
Kiro gulped a mouthful of a mana potion. Then a familiar feeling engulfed his whole being.
As the azure vapor encircled throughout his body; Kiro felt a sudden ecstasy.
Up above the sky, the sun was already pointing at the east when he regained his mana.

Inside the Adventurer’s Guild.
With the information, they got from Aldin. The Guild was bustling with clamor after the news of a Goblin King appeared at the beginner’s forest, also known as the plainlan forest.
Every adventurer’s inside the waiting lounge was staring at the eye-catching pinned request.
On the enormous commission board, there was an extra-large parchment pinned in the middle.
.
*???????????????????????? ????????????????????????????*
Difficulty: ????+++
Requirement: The quest is only applicable to a C-rank union and above.
Quest: Goblin Nest Subjugation.
Important Note: The possibility of a Goblin King leading the nest is high.
Reward: ???????? ???????????????? ????????????????????.
.
Staring at the parchment, many C-ranker Adventurers piqued their interest upon the hefty rewards. With 30 gold coins on hand, their union can have light breathing for about a month or two.
“Hooh… There’s a possibility of a Goblin King was leading the entire nest…” One of the adventurers said.
“Nah it’s not worth the time and effort. With the settlement alone, do you think a single union can handle an entire Goblin nest?” An old veteran adventurer voiced out.
“Mm, you’re right about that. However, with 30 gold coins, I can upgrade my union members’ equipment… Haaah~ but it was unrealistic for us to handle the nest. Even more so with the possibility of a Goblin King leading the place.” The person murmured in response.
Suddenly a voice resounded in the Guild.
“HOHOHO! A Goblin King Subjugation request. I like it! Hahaha with this, my party can have it easy within upcoming weeks!” The man said while laughing heartedly.
When the person who was checking the parchment heard his voice. He wanted to remind the person about the difficulty of the quest. But when he saw the figure, he halted his voice while nervously checking out the newly arrived person to make sure that his eyes weren’t playing a trick on him.
“… Mr. Gellis?” He said in astonishment. “When did you come back?” The person said cheerfully.
“Hahaha! Hello there, Simo, it’s been a while, how’s your union doing these days?” Gellis said as he shifted his gaze toward him.
“I and my party members just returned to this town. Apparently, we’re short of income within this week but to think there is a Goblin Subjugation upon our arrival it was as if a Godsend to us, after-”
Gellis didn’t manage to finish his words as a sudden voice interjected. “After all, your party is the best Goblin’s Slayer isn’t it?” Yet another person has arrived as he comes closer to Gellis.
“Oh! Rex, it’s been a while.” Gellis turned around and said. “Still doing the newbie recruit thing?” Gellis stated in the tone that did not hide his discontent.
“Hehehe, you don’t have to worry about me, Gellis. My newbie recruit is doing well. In fact, my union earned quite a lot lately.” Rex replied, not minding Gellis’s tone.
“Ooh, a Goblin Subjugation. Are you going to take it? If not, let my union handle it.” He said while both of his eyes flashed with greed.
“You don’t need to. I’ll do it! My party is the best when it comes to Goblin’s Slaying. I won’t back down to this quest, even if it’s you.” Gellis responded with his eyes flickered with battle intent.
Seeing the madman was about to challenge him into a fight, Rex knew that he wasn’t his match, so he could only grit his teeth in frustration.
“Fine! You can take it.” He said as he walked out of the Guild.
“Tsk! A spineless bastard, he is only good at exploiting the newbies.” Simo who was watching the scene unfold in silence said in irritation.
“Why does a guy like him still exist in this Guild? He should’ve been gone a long time ago…” Simon shifted his gaze to Gellis. “So what would you do now Mr. Gellis?”
“Isn’t it obvious? I would accept this request! Hahaha!” After saying that, Gellis snatched the parchment on the huge signboard.
“Okay, see you later, Simo. I’ll treat you to a drink after my party finishes this subjugation request,” Gellis said as he went toward the receptionist hall.
Watching Gellis disappearing back, Simo said. “Okay, Mr. Gellis Good luck and have fun!”

Inside the Infirmary room.
Missa was now awake after an hour of rest. “Thank you, Alyva, Mira for taking care of me,” Missa said. “How’s Aldin? Is there any good news?”
When the two heard her question, their expression couldn’t help to turn sour.
“What happened?” Noticing her sister and Alyva’s behavior. Missa couldn’t help to call out in surprise.
Hearing her sister’s voice, Mirabell wanted to say something. But before she could. Alyva’s voice resounded to the room.
“… The thing is.” Then she narrated the event after she went unconscious.
As soon as Aldin finished discussing with the veteran receptionist. He went to check Alyva’s group. Thus when he heard that Missa is fine. Aldin started to narrate what happened inside the VIP room.
Thereafter, Instructor’s Ralph burst into the infirmary room while not minding the staff who were trying to stop him from making a commotion. Then after knowing the four of his disciples only then Ralph stopped making a ruckus.
“That’s what happened.” Alyva shifted her gaze at the entrance of the infirmary room. “Then Aldin and Instructor’s Ralph went outside to have a light talk.”
Hearing Aldin’s name, Missa’s face became solemn.
Staring at her sister’s expression, Mirabell said. “I know that you’re upset with Aldin, but it wasn’t entirely his fault,” Mira said while thrown a glance to Alyva’s who was gripping the hem of her raiment.
“Before this subjugation started; I asked Aldin to stop you at all costs if you ever acted foolishly.” Then staring straight at her sister’s eyes, Mirabell said. “If you want to blame someone, It’s me who you should blame Missa.”
Seeing her younger sister’s reaction. Missa could only sigh in agreement. “Okay, I admit my mistake. I shouldn’t blame Aldin like that. He was only protecting me.” While saying that Missa stared at Alyva. “Are you alright?”
Catching her voice. Alyva responded with a slight nod. “Mm.” But deep inside, she was the one who was most affected by this incident. After this accident, she doesn’t know how to talk to Aldin. Even though she knew that it wasn’t his fault. Still, she can’t let go of the fact that Aldin just left Alina behind.
Missa stared at her for several breaths as she said. “If you’re thinking why Aldin left Alina alone. He did stop her. But it was a futile effort.”
When she heard her voice, Alyva’s eyes flashed with complex emotion.
