I Would Like To Live A Different Life If I Could Go Back In Time - Episode 21

I promptly set off to the clinic early in the morning.

“Good morning, teacher.”

“Yuna, good morning. Without further ado, please.”

Yes, yes, it’s my name, but at first, I was helping out as Yuria. However, it seems that having a noble constantly helping out doesn’t look good, so I ended up helping out at the clinic under the name Yuna, which is a commoner’s name.

And in the guild, there are safety issues for women, so on Graham’s recommendation, I’ve been using the name Yugele since long ago.

Of course, there are women who are active solo, and there are also many parties exclusively for women.

“Yuna-chan! Please become my wife!”

“Yes, yes. Back again, are we? Being careless is not good, you know? Gantz-san. Yes, I’ve treated it. Please try not to get hurt next time.”

We will proceed with the treatment while having such exchanges.

“Since Yuna started helping at the clinic, the number of injured people has increased. Is that good or bad?”

We all chat amiably together. In the evening, we stop by Eme’s inn before heading back to the dormitory.

For the next three days starting tomorrow, I’ll be at the guild. Usually, I only handle simple requests that earn me a bit of pocket money for a few hours after school, but this time I’ll take on tasks that can be completed from morning to evening.

The order form we received is for a serious hunt, so we need to prepare thoroughly.

I used the money I had been saving diligently to buy the missing items and headed out for the hunt.

Since morning, I’ve been hunting the demon boars. Apparently, they’ve been wreaking havoc in the fields.

I’ve defeated small boars many times before, but the so-called magic boar is a boar-type monster several times larger than a human, and it’s incredibly strong and big.

It wasn’t just a small allowance; it was a proper amount paid as compensation for a job well done.

“Wait, wait~!”

Chasing down monsters and then taking them out with magic. Perfect.

And then I realized.

As expected, I can defeat large monsters without any issues even on my own.

Unfortunately, it will take time to search, so I won’t be able to handle the number of requests.

If you want to aim for an easy reward increase, you have no choice but to ask for a higher reward when selling the defeated monsters. For that, you need to know more about the monsters.

My past knowledge is not enough.

If you defeat it in a dream, the reward will be minimal.

After returning to the town and completing the monster request procedure, I decided to read the list of monster characteristics provided by the guild. Of course, since the reward ranks are also written, it’s easy to think about which ones to target.

As a general trend, for the same type of monster, it’s best to bleed them out if their meat will be used for food after hunting. For monsters whose main materials are fur or skin, the less damage they have, the higher the reward. Additionally, high-quality items seem to have a slight bonus added to their reward, whether they are meat or materials.

Hmm, hmm.

After reading it thoroughly, I looked around and saw that it was already dark, so I hurriedly headed to Eme’s inn.

“You can’t do that! What have you been doing so late?”

“Ugh, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to be late. I was reading a book at the guild, and before I knew it, it was this late.”

Eme scolds me like a mother. I know I’m in the wrong, and it hurts to hear it, but I really love Eme for worrying about me and scolding me like this.

As expected, since it’s late today, I ended up staying over at Eme’s house. Of course, as family.

Those who do not work shall not eat.

After helping with the meal and the inn’s chores, we had dinner as a family and went to bed.

The next day and the day after that, I received two requests to hunt monsters. Since they were in the same area, I thought I could manage it.

By the way, the reward for each time is about what a day laborer earns. Since I attack with magic, the cost is almost nothing. It just keeps piling up.

The clinic offers a similar level of compensation. Since this also involves studying, I plan to continue until graduation.

It feels like the guild is getting paid for stress relief. I’ll save up little by little. Hehe.

It’s only natural that I can’t stop grinning as I watch the gold coins pile up, one by one.

And then, about two weeks later, a letter arrived from home.

I completely forgot about the tea party hosted by the palace!!

I feel heavy-hearted.

After letting out a long, heavy sigh, I replied to my father that I would return to the estate tomorrow.

As soon as the tea party is over, I’ll head back to the dormitory and report to Eme. I’ve made up my mind. I walked back to the mansion.
