Chapter 8 – The recipe that couldn’t be told
~ Adventurer’s life Day 4 (Thur) Afternoon ~ Comnes Town – Rostam workshop
I found the Rostam workshop, the one I was told that can buy the slih they call it a workshop, it looksit now
I looked at the shop for a while until the old
He was quite nonchalant in entering another person’s houseHe walked to the back of the room, took out a chair and sat on it relaxed
Oh, h after a while, a so black haired woman around her forties came into the room
“hello, welcome to RostamI’m Adrianne, what can I do for you?”
Incidentally, the oldto which Adrianne relayed the e to hbouring this shop, Pietro
I guess that hbours
I wanted to sell the sliht away, but I’ve been told that they don’t accept any anymore unfortunately
Apparently, she couldn’t recreate the recipe for hardening the sli up on slimes
As for the reason why they lost the recipe, lastsome slimes in the marshlands
Fro and thewhile Adrianne handles the business sideBefore he could e to teach the procedure on the recipe, he died
If that’s the case, then I find it a little weird how that uncle at the o hereUnless…
“Would your husband perhaps be bald with a peculiar beard co from the sides of his face?”
I didn’t really see that style in this world, but I do re called a Kaiser beardI also mentioned some other noticeable features about him
“Yes… Do you happen to be an acquaintance of him?”
“Rather than an acquaintance, I talked to hio when I was at the ot over here but…”
“That’s not possible… My husband died!”
“That is the case but, the fact that Ito do with , I took out my adventurer card and showed it
“Necromancer… Is that the divine protection that allows you see and talk to the dead?”
“… I don’t really know about that, butto do with it”
At hearing that, the wife came to cover her face with her hands as she quietly sobs
The oldon the verge of tears hiuess I was a little too insensitive there… Well, it’s a good thing they at least they accepted h, I can’t just leave here without helping
And I’m sure I was entrusted by hiet soer? I should be back in about an hour”
Adrianne wiped her face and looked up to me
“For what?”
“I don’t know if this can work or not, so just hear me out later”
When I quickly left the shop, I think I heard them call out to meBut I don’t think I have

Once I arrived at the
I looked around, but I don’t see a single personI looked again, but I try to concentrate with my eyes
This ti into a shape of a human
Whew, I didn’t think that would’ve worked
“… I don’t believe itHave you couess”
From what Adrianne said, her husband is unmistakably the uncle I met earlier today
“… You can’t hold that for me out a bitYour shop didn’t had the recipe for the slime cloth so can you relay it to me?”
“… I wasn’t able to teach ret that keepsslime clothIt’s hidden in the table in etting faint
Shortly after he faded awayHe returned to being a faint haze as he was before
There’s only a faint presence left of hih there should be no one around
“Mr husbandI’ll definitely convey this to your wife”
As I made my declaration, I headed back to town
See to receive a headache like before, but this much is still endurable
~ Adventurer’s life Day 4 (Thur) Dusk ~ Comnes Town – Rostam workshop
I arrived back at Rosta for me
I steady my breath for a bit
“It’s inside your husband’s table, is what he said”
I relayed what I was told
Unable to contain herself, Adrianne gets up and headed over to the next room at the back
Pietro stayed here in the rooh the back
He caone red again
“I think it’s best… if I just take ave a satisfied nod as he also took his leave
“… Do you ain?”
Is what the Adrianne asked ave my farewell and took my leave
It’s fine if I talk to her about her husband at another tiin with
Inconspicuously, I left my slime jelly inside the bamboo cylinder there
I don’t really have any use for it myself, so I feel like it’s better to just leave it here like this
I feel too guilty to ask for soret about his wife’s situation kept him tied this world
The bond between spouses sure is strong…
Though that, “He’s either a ninja or an assassin!” was e too ood

I ca dinner I took a rest
(It should be quite busy there for a whileOnce it calain)
I’ a request for a different kind of potion container, kinda like the glass ones in gaht now, but once I’m ready to make the poison and explosion potions, I’ll need to find another suitable container for those
One that’s cheap, doesn’t break or leak when I’ but breaks when thrown at an eneht just be thefor
(I used quite a bit ofabout it, I run out of it pretty quickly huh)
I am just a novice adventurer after all, there’s a limit to how often I can use my skills
However since my divine protections are more support orientated, it should be easy to increasethem
(This should be the case, but…)
Can you even level up in this world? In the ga upBut even with Ne here
If it’s not possible, then how do you even defeat the stronger monsters later on? I hear that adventurers can defeatany details of that, I have no idea
I can’t really think of anything uess I’ll just have to find it out later on
Levelling in the gaht forward, but a different a on what divine protection you haveSo in the end, it’ll be normal for to end up at different levels
For example, in the future ‘Necromancer’ may become level 2, while my ‘Alcheained is different for each fight, depending on how frequently it was used or if it was used as the final blow
In this case, ‘Necromancer’ would benefit from this the mostPerhaps in the future, ‘Alche skillBut I have no idea about ‘Sculptor’
There’s several proble whether to focus on training the necroic power
Since I can only defeat monsters with the bone weapon, I’ll just have to focus on that for now
(… Hopefully there’ll be a better method of combat than this in the future…)
So out attacksIt’s the kind of monster that never runs away no matter how many times you defeat them, and is one I know very well ofOf course it’s none other than the shelled rabbit
