Isekai.. The Legend of Supreme Magus Beginning (Isekai.. Legend of the Supreme Magus Begins)

"I have also heard of the difficulties experienced by Daka Village based on the Gate Guard story earlier. We know the main cause of your problem. "

"REally..?!! " Shouted Baron and his wife at the same time.

"Yes.. We know the main cause of the problem of the disappearance of fishermen looking for fish in the Lake and the lack of fish there, it is because at the bottom of the lake there was previously a large Snake Monster that inhabited it.. " Said Argus.

"And the reason why there are many swarms of Monster Eagle grigora in the forest, it is caused by the appearance of a powerful Eagle grigora that is able to manipulate their minds and command them..

So there are more grigoras than usual.. "

"Is what you say true.. ? " Ask Lady Margaret

"That's right, because we're not here on the usual route. But we took the Forest route to get there faster.. " Said Argus.

"If it is indeed as you say, then this will probably be a serious problem.. " Said Baron Ivan.

"Monster capable of manipulating a Rank B Swarm of Monsters then this was at least a Rank A Monster.. "

"And for the Monsters at the bottom of the Lake, because even Rank C or B Monsters no one dared to approach the Area around the Lake. Then it was likely a Monster Rank A instead.. "

"If it's true, we might have to set up a lot of funds for this.. It would probably reach around 200 gold to deal with this matter.. "

"But, With our current Fund it is impossible to prepare that much.

And if we raise taxes, this doesn't seem possible.. " Said Lady Margaret

"Mr Argus, do you know what kind of Monster is in that lake and the Monster that commands the Eagle's gregora.. "

"That's just a Snake with many heads and a type of greater eagle grigora only.. " Said Argus.

"Snake with many heads..? Isn't that Hydra..? " Said Lady Margaret

"If it's Hydra, then it's even more serious. That would probably be about one Platinum Coin.. " Baron Ivan said, looking lethargic.

"I'm sorry, but it doesn't seem like you need to do this anymore.

Because the Master has taken care of them all.. " Lisa's speech solves the concerns of Baron and his wife.

"Is that true.. ?" Ask Baron Ivan

"Wait, the point is that you guys have already defeated a Monster Rank S..? "

"Ehh.. I seem to have defeated them. So you no longer need to think about this matter.. " Say Argus

"I can also share the Monster's body with you, so you can help the citizens in this Daka village.. "

"Thank you.. Thanks again.. " Said Baron Ivan

"But that's not necessary, because Hydra is a S Rank Monster that has a lot of material is very Expensive. We can't take it.. "

"No need in mind, it's not Hydra anyway. It was just an ordinary snake with eight heads..

And we also have many Grigora Eagle Bodies, so it's fine to split 10 with you.. "

"It's.." Baron Ivan hesitates to accept Argus' offer as he feels they have even just met and again, what Argus will do with the ruins will also help them.

So if they keep accepting Argus' offer, it seems very embarrassing. Even if it was to help the citizens in Daka at the moment, Baron Ivan still felt bad.

"Alright, but allow Us to prepare a Gift that is suitable for you.. " Said Baron Ivan.

"That's not necessary, I'm doing this because it does need them. So you don't have to do anything.. " Say Argus

"Does it matter if I take the body out in the front yard..? "

"Yes, it doesn't matter, someone will take care of it.

But still because you guys have solved the problem of our Village, then we have to give something as a reward.. " Say Baron Ivan, after which they began to walk out of the room towards the front of the Baron's residence.

After getting there, Argus took out the Ten Corpses of the Grigora Eagle and half of the corpses of the Eight-headed Snake Yamata-no-Orochi .

"If it is like that, then maybe you can give me some more Tea and also if there are some Tea seeds.. " Said Argus.

"Isn't this inappropriate for us, the thing you're asking for is too small. In the meantime what you will share is very valuable. . " Said Baron Ivan while observing the corpse of a Monster that was quite high piled up there.

"Even though you say it's just an ordinary snake with many heads, I'm sure it still includes Rank S Monster isn't it... ? And are you sure this isn't Hydra..?

And for the ten Rank B Monsters, the Eagle grigora. It was also already worth several Gold Coins. And in addition the snake could have reached several Hundred Gold coins. "

"While for the Leaf of tea and its seed you requested, it doesn't even exceed one Gold Coin, so we can't accept it if it's like this.. " Said Baron Ivan

"That's right, so please ask for something more valuable. If not, then we will probably be the talk of another noble. And maybe even the other adventurers will think that we are using you.. " Said Lady Margaret

"And if it's like this, then the adventurers might not want to stay here anymore. Please ask for something more valuable.. "

"This..? " Argus hesitated at this moment.

This is the first time Argus has experienced this, if most adventurer requests are considered too high so ask to lower his demand. So the Argus case is the opposite.

Argus asked too low, initially Argus only wanted to share for free. But now it seems impossible.

Argus also understood about the concerns of Baron and his wife, so Argus thought of another way..

"Too so, how do I add a request about information. If this is information, then no one can complain anymore, right..? " Say Argus

"It may also work, information is the most valuable thing. So long as it doesn't harm the citizens of the Illia kingdom, then it doesn't matter.

So we agreed.. " Said Baron Ivan

"Oh right, can Mr. Argus explain what monster this snake is..? Looks like this is the first time I've seen anything like this other than Hydra.. "

"This is Eight-Headed Snake Monster Yamata-no-Orochi . It did not have Wings like Hydra and had eight Tails and one body. It's not like Hydra has one tail..

And again this has no Regeneration power, only the power of the elements in each of his heads alone.. " Said Argus.

Argus says it's like it's just a small thing, but for a fairly knowledgeable Baron you know very well if it's not as simple as Argus says.

If each Head had different powers, it meant that whoever would fight against it would face a Monster that had the ability of eight Elements.

If you think about it, isn't this much more troublesome than Hydra..?

Hydra only has the ability of regeneration and fire, so as long as it can cut off all its heads within a certain period of time. Then the regeneration will not be able to compensate for it.

That means it only needs the ability to defeat with a stronger power alone, unlike this snake that requires a variety of abilities to compensate.

But Baron and his wife think that Argus said that to make them not feel too indebted to Argus.

So they didn't say what they thought about this monster.

"good.. I only want two pieces of information. It's not a big thing, so I think it's okay. " Say Argus

"First, I want more detailed information about the Ruins.

Second, I want you to help me find a plant called Coffee.. "

"Do you just want to know these two things..? " Task Baron Ivan.

"For the first time, it's not a problem. We will explain the matter to you without being asked..

And for the second. Coffee Plants, though,

I've never heard of this at all. What kind of plant is it.. "

"Ehh coffee is a plant that produces small and hard fruit, it is not for eating. It's just the seeds I want to make a drink..

And.. And.. " Say Argus stopped because he didn't know what to say..

"Forget it, I'll just show you.. "

After saying that, Argus then changed his Mana to form a picture of a tree..

Argus made this because he remembered the projector, so Argus displayed what he imagined to be a three-dimensional image with which he belonged.

A tree with a very similar look to a coffee tree appears in Argus' hands, then Argus turns it into a Leaf section, then a flower section and seeds.

Argus also displays coffee beans from the beginning when it was young in green. Then, the color changes to dark green, yellow, and deep red when it is ripe.

"Coffee tree is more or less like this that I know, but if you know this same kind of plant. That's not a problem.. " Say Argus

"Even if I've never seen anything like this, I'll try to find information about similar plants.. " Said Baron Ivan

"And if there's any information, we'll let you know through the adventurer Guild.

So that message can be directly given to you through the Guild Branch.. "

"Alright, thanks.. " Say Argus

"Well, so I'm going to start explaining about the Ruins according to what we already know.. " Said Baron Ivan

Then he explained that these ruins were precisely found Two weeks ago.

After learning about the Ruins, the Guild informed the Baron.

Upon hearing this, the local Baron and Viscount decided to investigate further as they argued that this matter might be a current exit for the Daka region.

After that the Baron ordered the soldiers to investigate further and keep the place from being entered carelessly.

And from the investigation outside the Ruins, some information was obtained.

From some pictures of an object that looks like a vehicle, to images that seem to show about a large, unfamiliar creature.

Then when they entered the ruins, there seemed to be many traps there. Because the soldiers who entered said they were exposed to various traps and traps.

And there seemed to be some traces of Monsters within the ruins, so the soldiers did not dare to continue exploring the Ruins.

So the only option was to send an exploration Quest to the central Guild in Isak City.

"Is there a specific image of the Vehicle and the Creature..? " Tell Argus

"For that vehicle, it looks like a bird. Because there are wings beside it.

We say vehicles because there are other images that show places where there are pictures of people inside... "

"While for the creature itself it looks like a humanoid figure, yet it seems like the size of the creature is quite large.. "

"From your words, I can probably guess a bit.. " Say Argus

"really..? " Task Baron.

Lisa and Lady Margaret also noticed Argus.

"Yes, the vehicle-like image as well as the humanoid creature image. Then there is the possibility that the ruins are about Magic Technology. Or Magic artifacts about vehicles and Golems.. " Said Argus.

"Magic Technology..? If it's like this, maybe there's not a Treasure in there that can help Daka. " Said Baron Ivan

"Actually if this is information about Magic Technology, this might actually be a big change for the Daka area.. " Say Argus

"If utilized properly, then the Daka Region can be the Center of Illia Kingdom technology.. "

"This.. This may be true, so I will prepare some researchers later to wait for the results.. " Said Baron Ivan

"Well, can you prepare a guide to visit the ruins..? " Say Argus

"Do you not want to wait until tomorrow morning, and rest first..? " Task Baron Ivan.

"No need, to be honest with us before having rested first in the Forest when close to Daka Village. " Say Argus

"So we don't need any more rest, we intend to explore the ruins as soon as possible.. "

"Well, then I'll get the driver ready soon.. " Said Baron Ivan

"Alright, we will wait in the adventurer Guild first. Because we still need to report there.. " Say Argus

. Seriate.
