Lets collect mushrooms in the marsh
The next day.
I came to the adventurers guild in order to find a quest to replace the medicinal grass collection which was my main one.
By the way, last night I had Carolina wait in a ball with Aphrodite.
Given her circumstances, it would be good to let things calm down before having her live mainly inside the ball when you think about it.
Oi oi. Look. A new quest is added.
It seems to have rained heavily at a marsh in Zumaria yesterday. Monsters has begun to spring up.
I have heard middle-aged adventurers talk about such a thing as they stand before the guild board.

The men are talking about the above 3 quests.
The adventurer rank required is G.
Seems like that said suddenly-added quest has somewhat equal payment to the existing ones inside the forest.
I cleared all the medicinal grass for that request earlier too, so theres no real reason for not accepting this new request right?
Then 2 hours later.
I arrived at the damp ground of Zumaria to handle the quest I had just accepted.
According to the pamphlet I took from the guild, the demon appearing in this area seems to be light mash and two kinds of amoeba slugs.
When Ive confirmed that there was no human presence, I called Carolina out from the ball.
A-Amazing! I heard from you before, but Im really able to freely enter and exit the ball!
Suddenly called, Carolina eyes grew big with surprise.
the divine protection of <> which rules all families. It feels like too much power for a mere human to have.
Hm? Did you say something?
N-no! Its nothing!
When I asked it, I had the feeling that I was being deceived as Carolina waved her hand exaggeratedly.
Souta, look, look! A Monster Mushroom is coming from over there!

At Aphrodites fingertips, there was a Light Mash jumping up and down.
Caro! I want to see your fighting capability. Is it alright to leave this place? Do not kill that monster but neutralize it, save it.
I understand. A monster of that level wouldnt be a problem, even with my bare hands.
Declaring so, Carolina peered in the direction of the Light Mash.
The Light Mash was a mushroom shaped monster, with a full length of approximately 50 centimeters.
Since it appears to have become a gigantic mushroom, it didnt grow any feet.
The monster moved by hopping, like a pogo stick, and the atmosphere was comical.
Nokou!
When the Light Mash raises a strange voice, I begin to splurt out spores from the point of its head.
Nuooo!
What is it? That attack!?
If that attack is poisonous, its bad.
Was it a misjudgement to let Carolina fight this as her first opponent?
But.
Carolina was calm in contrast to my worries.
Suddenly, a strong wind arose from Carolinas feet.
This is.magic.!?
My prediction is right, this wind is attributed to [Wind Attribute Magic (intermediate)] display by the status screen of Carolina.
The numbness powder which the Light Mash shot is being drowned out by the wind.
Immediately after.
Carolina jumped with superhuman strength, like a rabbit, and lands behind the Light Marsh in an instant.
Then.
Without wasting a moment, the Light Mash was sent flying by a compact kick.
Umm. Was that okay?
Thats just enough! With this, even if I leave all the fighting to you, there would seem to be no problem at all
Due to the Carolinas effort, the Light Mash was at deaths door breathing weakly.
When its like this, I can surely put it into the capsule ball.
