Adopting Disaster-Novel

Side Story. Rosaria Quest (1)

After hearing the hero's words, Rosaria thought deeply about her future path.

She was now only 10 years old.

As a magician from a noble family, it was the age to study hard and learn to control mana.

In order to awaken their mana, they would have to study theories for 8 hours straight, and their parents, who were obsessed with the family's honor, would even starve or punish them like Dolores.

However, Rosaria grew up in an environment that was completely opposite to that atmosphere.

Although she was from a noble family of magicians, she was not taught only the path of magician.

She was taught whatever she was interested in, and if she found something intriguing, she could let her delve deeper into it, focusing on her interests.

Rosaria, who was inherently curious, learned a lot of magic.

Although they were just side skills, the combination of those skills made her a talented girl who was not inferior to her peers and even to the students of prestigious academies.

There were those who were unhappy with her talent, and one of them was Yuria Frenda.

Yuria, who was receiving a lot of expectations as a workshop magician of the empire, was praised as a genius of the century before Rosaria appeared.

Even after Rosaria's appearance, people still called her a genius, but Yuria was displeased.

And since she became Dolores' disciple, she could feel the huge wall between herself and Rosaria.

Feeling the wall sometimes led to great frustration, but Yuria's pride was far from frustration.

She had the mental strength to be recognized even if she had to overcome the wall.

'To do that, I have to be perfect from the outside.'

Two maids were helping her prepare to go out.

Yuria carefully examined her reflection in the mirror.

"Maid, it seems like the ribbon here is a bit crooked."

"Oh, I'll fix it for you, Miss."

She was usually picky, but she was even more so on the days she met Rosaria.

Yuria, who considered everything from one to ten as her competition, thought that she had to be perfect when meeting Rosaria.

'I guess it's nice to go meet friends.'

'I didn't know she had such a cute side.'

However, the maids just smiled warmly, thinking that she had made a close friend, and tied the ribbon again.

Having confirmed that everything was perfect, Yuria boarded the sky carriage.

Her destination was the Silence Tower.

When they were not attending classes, they studied together or did their homework at the Silence Tower.

At the entrance, Reed and Rosaria greeted her.

"Hello, Miss Rosaria."

"Yuria, hi!"

She smiled at the friendly waving gesture.

"How have you been, Tower Master?"

"You've come a long way, Miss Yuria."

His dignified smile seemed dazzling.

Yuria, who had a proper crush, avoided his gaze by casually flipping her hair behind her ear.

'How can he be so cool?'

She knew that he had re-engaged with her master, Dolores, but she couldn't help her innocent crush.

'Can I make the Tower Master like me if I become a better magician than my master?'

She brushed off the thought of an absurd imagination that could appear in a soap opera.

Rosaria took Yuria to her room.

***

"Miss Rosaria, do you know that?"

"What is it?"

Rosaria, who was struggling with a math problem, looked up at Yuria's question.

With a smug smile, thinking that Rosaria wouldn't know, Yuria told her.

"Magic apprentices take on requests from the Adventurer's Guild to show their magical abilities to their masters."

"Taking on?"

"It means to accept. They accept requests and show their abilities with them."

"What kind of abilities?"

"If it's destructive magic, they sweep away monsters—."

"Monsters!"

"If it's healing magic, they heal patients—."

"Healing!"

"In places with drought, they provide water—."

"Drought!!"

"Are you going to react like that and interrupt me every time?"

"Uh, sorry."

Excited Rosaria lowered her head.

Yuria coughed and finished her sentence.

"Anyway, that's how we show our abilities. To prove that we can serve as a magician."

"I see. It feels like an adventure somehow."

"It's pretty much an adventure. Since we're getting requests from the Adventurer's Guild."

"Adventurer...!"

At the mention of adventure, Rosaria's eyes sparkled.

As if waiting for such a reaction, Yuria chuckled and replied.

"Miss Rosaria, shall we try an adventure ourselves?"

"Adventure! I want to!"

Knowing that she liked adventure stories, Yuria expected her to agree easily.

'Hehe, I'll show you how amazing I am.'

Yuria made this suggestion to show off her seniority.

She thought that by doing so, she could kill Rosaria's spirit and take control at the same time.

'Adventure!'

To the innocent Rosaria, she thought Yuria just wanted to play together and was genuinely happy.

"So, are we going to the Adventurer's Guild?"

"No. I happened to bring a request form!"

Although she picked it up on the street.

Swallowing that fact, Yuria unfolded the rolled-up scroll.

Type: Search

Request location: Dun Luster Village.

Content: An unidentified creature is wandering around, attacking the chickens of the farm. It only appears in the dark of night, and it's a headache as it catches one chicken every two days.

Please catch or drive away the chicken thief.

Grade: F

"What's the letter next to the grade?"

"It's F. It means the lowest grade."

"I see. So this is the easiest request?"

"That's right. It means the least dangerous among adventures. It means it's safe enough for us to go."

The F grade was something anyone could do in a safe area, such as gathering and simple errands.

Rosaria, who had imagined a grand adventure, was a little disappointed.

"I want to try a dangerous adventure."

"What kind of adventure?"

"Going into a labyrinth and defeating slimes and stuff!"

"Do you think we have the ability to do that?"

"We can't, but our Meowmeow can. He'll defeat them all."

Rosaria grabbed the Meowmeow wagging its tail next to her.

"That salamander? Slimes don't have just one attribute."

"Our dog can shoot breath, change into light, and transform into water. So, no matter what slime comes, he'll defeat them all! He did that last time too."

"Hmm..."

She already knew it was not a salamander but an elemental lizard.

A heterogeneous creature created by her curiosity.

"Do you want to try an adventure with me, Miss Rosaria?"

"Adventure! I want to!"

Yuria knew how amazing that was.

'But can this stupid-looking lizard protect us?'

The dog, who had been dozing off, opened his eyes and got up.

Yawning after waking up from sleep, the dog said.

-Meoow...

Hardly reliable.

Yuria preferred it looking incompetent, as it meant more responsibility for her.

"So when should we try the request?"

"Can we do it right away tomorrow?"

"A magician should be prepared. Even so, we need at least two days."

"Two days... So, in two days? Okay."

"Surely, if Miss Rosaria or I say we're going on an adventure, the adults will frown. Then they will undoubtedly want to accompany us on this adventure."

"It seems more fun to go together."

"Adults are all overprotective. We wouldn't have a chance to go on an adventure."

Hearing that, Rosaria nodded her head, agreeing.

What about when she went out with Phoebe?

If it seemed a little dangerous, she would interfere with Rosaria's path and divert her attention elsewhere.

Rosaria had a desire to play a little more dangerously.

"Say this."

"What?"

Yuria told Rosaria what she should say.

***

"I want to carry out a request like magic apprentices with Yuria."

"You're going to carry out a request and come back?"

Reed wasn't surprised by the idea of an adventure since Rosaria always liked it, but he was shocked by who she was going with.

'Is Yuria going together?'

Yuria, who complains about being bitten by insects?

No matter how much Reed thought, he couldn't easily allow it, imagining Rosaria with a worse personality after the adventure.

"What's the request grade?"

"It's F grade."

"F grade... Then it should be easy."

He was relieved that it wasn't anything dangerous.

'Should I accompany them?'

He thought about whether he should monitor Rosaria from behind and watch what she was doing, but then shook his head.

'It's a bit much to interfere when my daughter is playing with her friend.'

To grow up like her peers, she should learn to blend in with them.

'Besides, since Zekeheil Frenda is a doting father, he will provide an escort, so there's no need to worry.'

Reed came to a conclusion and nodded his head.

"Alright, go together. But you must carry the location tracking magic and signal magic stone."

"Dad, you seem to treat me like a child."

Rosaria, with her hands on her hips and her chest puffed out.

A small, baby-like figure that seemed to be pushed away with one palm, and a laugh burst out.

"Ask Phoebe to prepare it, and be careful."

"Okay!"

The parental heart was still uneasy even with sufficient measures.

Instead, Reed decided to set up an invisible surveillance.

"Water Spirit King."

"Why do you call?"

The figure of a little girl appeared in front of him through a cup of water.

"I assume you've heard everything, can you watch over Rosaria?"

"Are you asking me to look after that little girl?"

"You'll be following Rosaria anyway, so please let me know if there's an emergency. So I can step in."

"Annoying. But alright."

Orneptos thought observing the person trying to make a contract was also a means of getting to know them.

Yuria also spoke similarly and obtained Zekeheil's consent.

***

Meanwhile, at the Adventurer's Guild.

"Where did I put that adventure request form I received last time?"

The receptionist responded to the branch manager's words, rummaging through the documents.

"The request form? Just wait a moment... Huh?"

The man's hand rummaging through the documents became busy.

The team leader, who seemed to roughly understand the situation, frowned, and the man bowed his head, scratching his head.

"I'm sorry. It seems I've lost it."

"Do we have to rewrite it?"

"Yes."

"Ah, you. What on earth are you doing while eating?"

The branch manager started scolding him.

After a long 30-minute lecture, the team leader sighed deeply.

"It doesn't matter, just rewrite it. What's the grade for that?"

"I made it an F grade."

"F grade? Are you crazy? That's a search request."

"Is it?"

"Don't you know that search is always C grade or higher? F grade is for errands."

"The requester said it was okay to be an F grade..."

"That's because if you raise it to C grade, only a limited number of people can do it, so no one wants to do it. You took that at face value? You, you need someone to die to come to your senses?"

"I'm sorry."

The receptionist scratched his head again with an apologetic expression.

The branch manager clicked his tongue and prepared to rewrite the request form.

"Well, it's not an official order, and there's no seal on it, so no one in the Adventurer's Guild would believe it as it is. If you make such a mistake next time, I'll deduct your salary, got it?"

"Yes, yes!"

He vowed never to make such a mistake again, but the request form had already fallen into the hands of the two girls.
