“Night time, or places where the sun cannot reach. For example, if she enters a labyrinth that stretches underground, in the end, she will attract all the surrounding monsters … however, the attracted monsters will never attack Carol. That is the amazing part about Temptress. But then, according to literature, if the Temptress wounds the attracted monsters, their hypnotic state would be dispelled and even the Temptress would be attacked.”
“So those adventurers buried Carol underground to lure the monsters huh …”
“Ah, that’s because there were multiple requests put up for the collection of brown bear pelt for high prices. Around this season, the brown bears rarely appear at populated locations so they most likely wanted to utilize that child’s power … even if she is buried underground, the pheromone will leak out from the air holes.”
Quince said and stood up,
“Due to that power, that child must sleep in an airtight room at night so it’s tough in various ways but even so, the demand for her rental is high. Since she is a convenient child if you utilize her correctly. Thanks to you 2 bringing her back, it doesn’t look like she suffered any injuries so this is to thank you.”
After saying that, Quince took out a small bag containing coins.
” … Thank you …”
I took the small bag of coins and bowed.
I did not help her for the sake of money but I believe this was purely courtesy from Quince.
Then, we left the trading post.
“Master … perhaps with master’s ability?”
” … I might be able to change Carol’s job … but …”
I looked at the job of the man passing by ahead of us.
【Carpenter Lv17]
I changed that man’s job to Commoner in my mind.
However … his job did not change.
I’ve tried it before but I can only change the jobs of companions.
Due to that, I can’t secretly change other people’s jobs.
I do more or less have the option of changing Carol’s job when I rent her.
However, what should I do after that?
There’s a high chance Quince will find out about my skill to change jobs.
To change her job without letting anybody else other than her knowing, my only option is to buy her.
That’s not likely to be a bad thing. It will also likely solve Carol’s problems.
However, if we encounter the same thing again, will I solve it the same way and keep buying slaves?
And will I reveal my secret to every one of them?
I’m afraid to do that.
” … I mean, we don’t really have the leeway to purchase Carol now. Shall we go to the Adventurer’s Guild?”
“That’s right, since it seems like the pelt of the brown bear will sell for a high price if we sell it now.”
Haru did not mention anything about Carol’s job after that and she followed after me.
