Chapter 201 Zect's Side, We are Adventurers

 Zect’s POV
 
 Still, what a city this is.
 
 "Zect... you look pale... are you okay?"
 
 "Zect-sama, are you all right?"
 
 A city where the Demon King and the Pope live in harmony... it's an amazing sight.
 
 Looking at this city, I can't help but think that it really has become peaceful... I really think so... but at the same time I can't help but be surprised.
 
 "Well, this sight is surprising, isn't it? Luna is one thing, but Marin, don't you notice this anomaly?"
 
 "Zect-sama, it's certainly strange, but we can't afford to think about it... Well, it's Ceres-sama country, of course, we should consider it that way..."
 
 "That's true..."
 
 That's what I think.
 
 This is Ceres country... anything goes.
 
* * *
 
 "Heh~, so you live with Princess Marin? And that girl is?"
 
 "Luna."
 
 "Heh, Luna-chan, huh? She's cute."
 
 "...Yes."
 
 After that, Maria and Mel left because they had work to do.
 
 And then... only Lida, this girl who does nothing but play, is left.
 
 "You're really not busy, are you..."
 
 "Well, I'm not busy... because all I have to offer is a sword."
 
 "Then why don't you work as a vigilante or an adventurer? There are plenty of jobs out there if you don't choose one."
 
 "Hahaha, I don't want to work much..."
 
 What the hell is this girl thinking?
 
 She could've been a lady's maid.
 
 Although she didn't make it... she would've had a good position if she'd played a good role.
 
 Well, she's Ceres's follower, so she's got a role to play.
 
 In general, some of us may have been clumsy, some of us may have been fools, but we did our 'minimum job' as a 'Hero (Yuusha) party'. But this girl...
 
 This is not a good idea.
 
 "So what does Lida do all the time?"
 
 "Yeah, fishing... and playing with Ceres when he's free."
 
 She's an idiot...
 
 I was saved by the guy, but Ceres has the biggest flaw.
 
 He's a soft touch with his friends.
 
 The fact that he even tried to save me when I was a bum says it all.
 
 But, Ceres... that's not enough for some people.
 
 Lida will not make it.
 
 Well... since Ceres won't be back for a while... maybe I should do something.
 
 "Sorry, Marin, Luna we're going to have to work a little bit..."
 
 "That's what's good about you Zect-sama, it's fine."
 
 "You do what you want to do, Zect... I'm fine."
 
 "Oh, you're going to work? You don't need me then, do you? Then..."
 
 "Lida... you too."
 
 I caught Lida and smiled.
 
* * *
 
 "Here it is, here it is..."
 
 "Why come to the Adventurers' Guild?"
 
 Even if the world is at peace, there is work to be done.
 
 Gathering herbs and cleaning ditches.
 
 Fighting isn't the only way to be an adventurer.
 
 Adventurers are also the handymen of the city.
 
 "Lida, Marin, Luna, why don't we take on a job?"
 
 "I'm good."
 
 "I'll help you if you say so, Zect."
 
 "Luna..."
 
 "Lida, you said you don't have a job. That's not true. You've got a job."
 
 "No, I don't have a job..."
 
 "but you're a sword saint... You're forgetting something, aren't you? You and I are both S-class adventurers... in other words, we're both adventurers... let's get to it."
 
 Now, let's see what we can do with this group.
 
 "All right."
 
 "I'm looking forward to it."
 
 "...It'll be fun."
 
 The war against the demons is over. So there won't be much to defeat.
 
 It's more of an animal hunt.
 
 A job we can all do...
 
 Time is time, and as far as I'm concerned, there's not much to do.
 
 This is good.
 
 "I think the four of us should take this job."
 
 "yes, we'll need your adventurer's card... Uhh, are you sure? The S-class rank..."
 
 "Is it no good?"
 
 "No, but... you're not kidding, right?"
 
 "Of course."
 
 "Okay, accepted then. Good luck with the four cleaners in the square..."
 
 Receptionist, your face is all scrunched up.
 
 Marin and Luna are here... this should be good.
 
 "Come on, Lida, let's go."
 
 "Why do I have to clean up after you?"
 
 "Hahaha, since we are a Hero (Yuusha) party, we don't have any experience in this kind of rookie job... let's do it! Lida, I keep telling you, we are adventurers! There's plenty of work to be done. Let's go clean up the square."
 
 "I know... Geez!"
 
 I take the reluctant Lida and head for the square.
 
* * *
 
 "Marin, Luna, let's do it...!"
 
 "Yesss!"
 
 "Yes!"
 
 "Even though it's just a cleaning job..."
 
 Lida, It's a matter of tension.
 
 "Lida, this is a matter of tension. Let's do it! Let's do it!"
 
 "Ohhh..."
 
 "Oh!"
 
 "Oh, come on."
 
 I gave them brooms and garbage bags.
 
 After that, we worked until late in the evening, each earning three coppers, the kind of work a rookie adventurer would do.
 
 Still, it's better than playing around.
 
 We're adventurers... there's plenty of work to be done in the guild.
