Being Able to Edit Skills in Another World, I Gained OP Waifus-Chapter 47: Employment Contracts in Another World and How to Do It

“So, if you need to go through the guild to get a job done, we’ll do that, but in this case it’s …?”

I looked at the guild’s reception desk.

The woman standing in front of the counter looks away with a feeling of ‘huh’. I heard a small mutter. “It’s okay if they agree with each other. The guild won’t interfere,” she said.

Doesn’t the guild here protect adventurers like Aine’s “Common Guild”?

“Yes, that’s right. What do you think, Rafilia? Will you accept my request?”

“Oh, yes. Under that condition…”

“Your career is in danger, Rafilia Grace.”

A masked man stands in front of her, blocking her view as she stands from her chair.

Theses guys sure are persistent.

“You make us explain this to you this far and then you refuse?”

” Don’t you think it’s irresponsible?”

I’m not sure the Adventurers Guild would want to work with someone like this in the future. It may be the collective responsibility of all elves.”

The three masked men blame Rafilia.

This is a common pattern in interviews in the original world. Giving anxiety to the interviewee about future consequences. Do these guys really want Rafilia that badly? I’m not sure which is more important, that or they want her to take a job at a discounted rate and not know what’s going on.

It’s annoying. I’m tired of such tricks.

“Miss Rafilia?”

“Oh, yes! The bath man!”

“I’m sorry to bother you, but can I have a word with the Order of Divine Command? I don’t want to get you in trouble with the guild.”

“Yes, yes! Of course. Please!”

Rafilia is convinced.

All I have to do is silence the Order of Divine.

This is the town where we will live in from now on. If I blow it away with cheat skills here, the rest will be troublesome, so let’s go with a peaceful solution here.

“Reggie”

“Yes, My Lord”

Calling her casually among the people, I hand over the parchment.

Reggie takes the pen attached to the guild and writes the sentences I instructed with a smooth feeling. I’m still not used to writing letters from another world yet.

Yeah, is it like this?

“Listen, the Order of DIvine. I think I understand your situation. Then why not write down each other’s employment conditions on a piece of paper and let Rafilia choose herself?”

I show Rafilia and the masked men the terms of employment that Reggie wrote on the parchment.

The content is as I said earlier. Elder Slime Countermeasures. The content of the work is the provision of research materials. The reward is 120 Arsha. Required time is about 2 hours. It will not be a battle. Or rather, if it becomes a battle, we will solve it.

“This way we both know exactly what the terms of employment are. Isn’t that fair?”

“… Where is the need for that?”

The masked man looked at me.

“I don’t know your terms and conditions of employment, but if you are unable to offer better terms and conditions than I can, it would be a disgrace to interfere. I’ll leave you in peace. What do you say?”

I answered.

“… Are you sure?”

“Yes.”

I nodded, and the masked man summoned the guild’s receptionist. He clicked his tongue and ran his pen over a piece of parchment on the table. His hand was moving awkwardly. It’s as if he’s writing in a language he doesn’t know.”

“You won’t complain about this, will you?

The masked man raised the parchment and showed it to everyone in the Adventurer’s Guild.

“Quest: Dungeon Exploration Assistant.

Duration: Minimum 3 days. Maximum 5 days.

Job description: Assist in combat. Rearguard. No need for close combat. Free use of restorative magic. Defensive support.

Free loan of equipment. Accommodation is provided for the duration of employment. Private rooms. Bath. Meals included. Rest.

Reward: 6,000 Arusha.”

There was a sigh of relief in the guild.

It’s true that it was a surprisingly good deal.

“This is what we, the Order of Divine, are offering to Rafilia Grace.”

“Didn’t you just say that her reward is reduced to one-fifth because of her bad attitude?”

“Well, what are you talking about?”

” Well, are you sure those terms of employment will be offered to Ms. Rafilia?”

“Isn’t that what we said?” f𝚛e𝗲𝔀e𝚋𝑛o𝘃𝒆𝗹.c𝗼𝒎

“… Sure, I can’t get her on those terms.”

Rafilia’s face turned pale at my line.

“You can’t be irresponsible, you know. Terms and conditions of employment are important, and it is only natural that those who cannot offer adequate terms and conditions should step down.”

“Hey …, bath man…?

Rafilia trembles.

In contrast, the masked men are proudly puffing their chest.

“You seem to understand. Now go away. She will be our loyal─ party member.”

“Yes. So, just to be safe, let’s make a ‘Contract’ual agreement that we will both hire Rafilia on these terms.

“… What?

The masked man exclaims.

Okay, I got it.

“It’s should not be a problem. As I said earlier, what kind of employment conditions you have doesn’t matter. What matters is ‘what you are offering her’.”

“…!?”

“If you hire Rafilia on that condition, “Punishment of Contract” cannot come down. Besides, you were trying to “‘Contract'” with Rafilia on the condition that she will only get one-fifth of the reward, right? ”

“Oh, there’s always some irregularities about adventures. Binding with a ‘Contract’ can put people at risk when something happens. So ──”

“Yeah, that’s okay. However, I’m going to” ‘Contract’ “with Rafilia to keep this employment condition. I want to guarantee that I will definitely pay the mentioned reward.”

I know that there are always irregularities in adventure.

So what I’m listening to is the minimum line they can guarantee.

Normally, the Adventurer’s Guild acts as a coordinator and protects the adventurer. But that doesn’t work in the Irgafa guild. The proof is that Rafilia was under pressure interview, but guild officials pretended not to see it.

And these Order of Divine cannot be trusted by any means.

Then there is no choice but to have “God of Contract” appear.

“I’ve got a good deal to offer. And the reward is guaranteed by the ‘Contract’. I’ll make up the difference with the Order of Divine Command with certainty. What about you? Can’t you at least guarantee the amount of the reward in the partchment?

“No, … no, no, no!”

The masked man shook his head.

“It can be a little more or less depending on the results of the search! Of course, any shortfall will be taken into account in the long run to maintain economic stability of the party.”

“How about you just pay full for the success of your quest? If you can’t afford the full amount, you can guarantee half.” 𝙛r𝚎𝐞𝑤𝚎𝗯𝗻𝗼𝐯e𝚕.𝒄𝐨𝓂

“No, no, no, no, no!”

The masked man is shaking his head in panic. What?

“… only a tenth”

“No, no, no, no, no!”

“…Hyakubunno”(TL Note: This literally means ‘hearing a hundred times’.I guess it means that he replied with a hundred “No’s”)

Bum-bum-bum-bum!

“Are you sure the … job involves healing magic and no close combat?”

“No, it’s a field decision…”

“What about rental equipment and the inn bath break?”

“Of course.We’ll lend you equipment! It’s just that it’s not always a weapon, and you can’t lend a luxury item. But you don’t have to sign a ‘Contract’ to do this!”

“What I’m most interested in is the duration of the job.”

They tried to confuse Rafilia and force a “‘Contract'”. All the conditions were neglected.

Did they really intend to hire her as an “adventurer”?

“Isn’t it okay to ‘Contract’ to release her in up to 5 days?If we have no choice but to extend the ‘Contract’, you can do it for seven or eight days, and if it goes longer than that, we can make another ‘Contract’.”

“You can make a ”Contract” for that in advance, can’t you? Am I right?”

“Ku…”

They gritted their teeth.

Looking at Reggie──To be exact, her collar made me realize their goal.

Did they intend to … enslave Rafilia? … Oh no.

“What about the honor of the town that was blessed by the great Sea Dragon ‘Kerukotaro’?”

I tappeded on “The Mask of the Sea Dragon Kerukotaro”.

It’s a great way to make sure that the people in the Adventurer’s guild understand what I am talking about.

“Is Rafilia irresponsible enough to hurt her adventurer’s career if she refuses because she is not satisfied with the conditions offered by the Order of Divine?”　The woman at the guild’s reception desk looked away.

But a few of the adventurers in the room certainly shook their heads.

The Adventurer’s guild – I don’t know why, but they might not be able to resist the Order of Divine Command. But the adventurers aren’t, you say? Well, whether the quest conditions are worth it depends on your life.

“So, what do you want to do, Rafilia?

“Of course, I have decided!”

Rafilia hits the table and trembles, but still desperately raises her voice.

“Oh, I’m going to take the quest from bath ── from the mask of Kerukataro. It’s only 120 Arsha but at least I am guranteed to get it without any risk to my life.”

…Hey.

You don’t be too hard on yourself, you know.

“I thought the Order of Divine was the legendary party … because it was the highest ranked party in the Adventurer’s Guild …”

Rafilia was teary and stared at the masked men.

“But not at all! I know the true legend. You guys are nowhere near the feet of a true hero. Shame on you !!”

“… Oh well. There are many other adventurers with same skill as Rafilia Grace.”

The masked men start to talk again.

The masked men have left Rafilia.

With the black eyes behind the mask, I look at Rafilia and laugh with my nose.

“Don’t get me wrong, Rafilia Grace. The reason we spoke to you like that was to find out how strong you are spiritually. We are in the service of a noble one. We must not be rude in any way. So we had to test you.”

“That’s just…”

Rafilia murmured, as if she was out of breath.

I helped Rafilia to stand. Her legs are trembling because she has been abused.

But the men don’t stop talking.

“It’s a shame, because we could have told you about our employer if we had made a formal ‘Contract’. You would have known your own stupidity by following this unknown person. I’m sure he was only attracted to your beauty anyway. I’m sure he’ll tell you – he’ll show his true colours.”

The man in the mask pointed at me and Rafilia.

“He will make you his slave!”

“That’s enough! It’s none of your business now!”

Raphilia slammed the table with a bang.

“I’m not going to be a slave, that’s for sure! Don’t underestimate me!”

“Of course not.”

I’m mad, too. What are these people doing?

“How could they? I’m not going to ask you to be my slave, Raphilia!”

“Huh!”

Rafilia jolted back.

“That’s right. I… I… I am not going to make you my slave,okay?Hahhh… even if I say that… No. It’s no good! ”

… Hey, hey, hey.

Why are you holding your skirt and trembling? Rafilia-san.

The people in the guild are staring.

“Let’s get out of here, Rafilia.”

“…Yes.”

I took Rafilia’s hand and walked out of the guild.

“Reggie. Watch your back and see if they’re following us.”

‘Yes, My Lord.”

Reggie reappeared in the shadows, palm-sized, and hid under my collar.

“We will need to lose them. We’ll be walking a bit fast, but please follow me.

“Yes, thank you very much!”

The festival crowd helps us.

We walked quickly into the crowd. Leggie is watching our backs. They’re wearing silver masks, so they stand out. They reflect the setting sun, so it’s easy to see that they’re following us.

We leave the main street and head towards the harbour. It’s on the other side of the house, but there’s more shade here. There are also large crates and boxes to be loaded onto the boats. So…

“Wa—–!”

DOGASHAN!

There is enough material for Rita to stall our pursuers.

That’s the plan.

Looking back for a moment, a blonde girl who also wore the mask of Kerukotaro was standing there.

Rita slid under the feet of the masked men and sweeped their legs. The masked men rolled together on the ground and plunged headfirst into a pile of crates.

We joined up with Rita.

We were running through the streets of an unfamiliar town when we came near our house…

“Thank you very much for your help… ─!”

The elf girl Rafilia Grace got on her knees and thanked us.
