Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start

-----

To register Eleanora in the Adventurer Guild, we needed to take a request from the guild and complete it. The test by itself was incredibly simplistic. I don't really know why those three guys from before were saying it would be something complex or hard enough it would be better to simply join their party… But certainly, there were things that made me intrigued about what they said. Such as the ability to bring a non-adventurer to an adventurer party. I decided to ask Eleanora to ask about this to the receptionist.

"I heard from those three Adventurers that it is possible to bring a non-adventurer to an adventurer party, is this true? Can non-adventurers help at completing quests?" Eleanora asked.

"Oh yeah! If the person is capable enough, you can receive help from them. Mercenaries, Hunters, and Slaves who are not registered can aid you in completing quests, of course, you're going to be the one to distribute rewards." Said the lady.

"…Is there an age restriction?" Asked Eleanora.

"Age… restriction?" The lady asked, she didn't seem to understand.

"Yes." Elenora replied coldly.

"Erm… Not really? though it would be weird to bring an unexperienced child to complete a quest. I wouldn't recommend it. However, if someone happens to die in a quest with you, without being registered in the adventurer guild, we can't become responsible for them. Only with registered members is when we'll take things in accordance with our rules." Said the lady. "Of course, I trust you that nothing such as that will happen."

"Of course, I was merely asking. There is… a capable young boy that might assist me. You'll get to know him better." Said Eleanora.

"A-Alright… Is he your apprentice or family member, by any chance?" Wondered the receptionist.

"Erm… (My lord, what do I say?!)" Eleanora asked to me through telepathy.

"(Tell her that I am your apprentice and young brother)" I told her.

"H-He's my little brother and is also learning magic with me. Hunting little creatures is a starting, so he can get some blessings of the holy spirits by going through trials." Elenora replied.

"I-I see. I hope you can take care of him. …Now, we should begin this. There is a series of quests in that wall, please pick any below H Grade." Said the receptionist.

"Only H Grade?" Asked Eleanora with slight disappointment.

"It is prohibited by anybody that is not an adventurer to do anything more than H Grade Quests. Some non-adventurers come to complete these sometimes, even children can do them." Said the receptionist.

"I see…" Eleanora walked towards the left wall, inspecting it.

There were only three current H Grade Quests. And even if completed, they were always available. These quests seem easy enough and might had been completed even by commoners with no fighting experience or talent, as long as they didn't had other methods to earn money. Perhaps my father had been doing these sometimes. Even Serfs seem to be allowed to do them, even when they're so limited to what they can do as they're not commoners.

"The Quests are… "Bring Four Bitter Weed", "Defeat One Walking Mushroom and bring its cap", or… "Defeat a Horned Rabbit and bring the Horn". That's it, they all seem quite simplistic…" Eleanora said.

"Hm… Well, pick all three of them, we can easily complete them. I already have some horns of a horned rabbit, which are pretty good alchemy materials, the cap of a walking mushroom and the Bitter Weed is what we lack currently. But what's a Bitter Weed though?" I asked.

"In here it says that when it is turned into a paste, the Bitter Weed is good to treat pain, stop bleeding, and also irritation." Said Eleanora. "It's not actually easy to find it because it looks almost the same as ordinary weed."

"Huh, might be the reason why I never found it… Perhaps it has so little magical power in them that I always ignored these weeds in exchange for rarer herbs." I sighed. "If I had the Alchemy Book, it would come in handy now."

Eleanora walked back to the receptionist with three papers in her hands.

"I'll take all three." She said.

"Oh! You think you can do it in a single day? You must complete the quest in 24 hours. If you fail, you'll have to wait a whole week and pay again if you want to try it. Are you sure?"

"Yeah, doesn't seem hard." Said Eleanora, confidently.

"V-Very well then, I wish you good luck!"

,m With that done, Eleanora walked outside the adventurer guild. She ended taking a stroll across the village while looking around a bit more. There were a few things we had discovered today.

"Apparently, there were quests about "Demonic Beasts Extermination" too." Said Eleanora.

"Yeah, I saw them. Apparently the forest we usually visit faces the opposite direction of the road leading to the fiefdom's capital, in there, there are several fields where monsters appear. It seems the demonic miasma of the demons in the war ended spreading outside of the forest due to the priests purification…" I replied.

"…Do you think that even when they did their best to purify the forest, there's still some more of this demonic essence?" Eleanora wondered.

"Yeah, from what I read, the demonic essence formed a mid-sized swamp or something. We should go investigate that area, while also using this opportunity to hunt more monsters that aren't just horned rabbits, the occasional walking mushroom, and a gray wolf or two." I decided.

"Very well." Eleanora immediately ran towards the forest.

I quickly emerged out of her shadows and summoned one Huginn Card. The lustrous black crow quickly flew off into the skies.

"Huginn, find a walking mushroom for us."

"CRAA!"

Without disobeying my orders, the crow went on his way. I am sure he can defeat a mere Walking Mushroom by himself and bring back the corpse for us later. Meanwhile, we decided to look up for this "Bitter Grass", whatever it was. I simply had to put my eyes in the ground and search. After we are done with this, however, we'll go look into that swamp, I am sure I'll find interesting creatures there.
