All My Professions Have Divine-Level Talents-Chapter 47: Ten Days

Today’s haul was truly bountiful. After settling the commissions, my earnings already exceeded 220 Gold Coins.

After paying them their 30 Gold Coin reward, Lu Cang was left with 190.

For a child, this was a veritable fortune.

It just goes to show, as long as you have the strength, money is easy to make.

By the time he had finished ten commissions, it was only dusk.

He felt he had a bit more stamina today than yesterday.

Even after rushing around all day, he didn’t feel particularly exhausted.

The Adventurer’s Guild was noticeably more crowded.

His teammates for the day planned to go for a drink to celebrate their earnings.

For a Tier Three Adventurer, earning 10 gold coins in a single day was a rare income even during Harvest Moon, not to mention how easily they had earned it.

Lu Cang declined their invitation.

He was all alone in Raine Town, and although he had gotten familiar with today’s teammates, he hadn’t yet formed the kind of bond where they would entrust their lives to one another.

Under these circumstances, Lu Cang had no desire to let himself fall into a stupor.

He glanced at the sky.

The curtain of night and stars was gradually being drawn.

’Forget it... I’ll go practice Magic.’

Lu Cang rented a private Training Ground to continue grinding his Magic Skill Proficiency.

While he was at it, he would also practice flying with his Ice Shuttle.

...

If one didn’t count the Demon tide and the influx of Adventurers it brought, life was actually quite peaceful.

There were none of the upheavals or dangers he had imagined.

Ten uneventful days passed. Lu Cang bought a newspaper every day to see what news was coming out of the Valley of the God Burial Stele.

The Tier Seven Dungeon was truly dangerous.

Bad news arrived daily; by now, only a few scattered adventurer parties had not been completely wiped out.

Iz’s team was one of them.

He couldn’t help them. Other than flipping a coin for them each day for good luck, there was nothing he could do.

The Magic he had already learned was now almost all at Level 200.

Just as he’d imagined, after evolving, they could no longer be leveled up, getting stuck at Level 201.

That included Void Realm, a Magic Enhancement Technique, which had also reached Level 200.

However, the Magic Enhancement Technique couldn’t be evolved.

His progress in Magic had more or less stagnated.

During the day over these past ten days, he had been constantly accepting adventurer commissions, forming a stable party with Luo Si and the others.

He had cleared over eighty Tier Three Dungeons.

He had subjugated over ninety Tier Three Lord Level Demons and annihilated more than thirty Demon settlements in the wild.

Inside the Adventurer’s Guild, a crowd gazed at the monthly commission rankings.

The star of the month on the list... was none other than Lu Cang. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

One person had accepted over two hundred commissions in ten days.

And they were all major commissions: killing Tier Three Demons, exploring Tier Three Dungeons, and wiping out Demon swarms.

He hadn’t taken a single minor commission, like "Investigation," "Harvest," "Gathering," or "Transport."

His income from commission rewards alone had already surpassed 300 Gold Coins.

It was hard to imagine how he had managed it.

Averaging over 20 commissions a day... wouldn’t just running from one place to another take up a significant amount of time?

Even without relying on Izparut’s name.

The Lu Cang of today had already become a legend passed by word of mouth among the Adventurers.

...

「Raine Town Library」

Lu Cang didn’t go accept any quests today.

His main reasons for taking adventurer commissions were to test his own strength, increase his Magic Skill Proficiency, and get accustomed to fighting.

This world demanded combat, and Lu Cang didn’t want to freeze up like an idiot when danger struck.

Another reason was to increase his understanding of the world through adventuring, while also gathering a lot of information from his teammates.

Now, his Magic was all maxed out, and he had accumulated a great deal of combat experience.

He had explored many Dungeons and talked a lot with his teammates; there wasn’t any particular information he was looking to get from them at the moment.

Therefore, there was no longer any need to keep taking commissions.

"Yo! Little Lu Cang!"

"Are you really not taking any commissions today?"

In the library, Luo Si saw Little Lu Cang and slung an arm over his shoulder, her chest pressing against him.

’Oh, it’s the indebted Healer...’

"Hehe, I’ve been taking commissions for too many days straight. I wanted to take a break today," Lu Cang answered smoothly.

Luo Si: "That’s fair. You have been adventuring for so many days in a row. Okay, okay."

"But this Demon tide is getting thicker."

"I saw the meteorological forecast. It said the Demon tide is about to reach a Level 5 concentration. If this keeps up, Tier Five Demons might actually start appearing in the wild."

"That is dangerous," Lu Cang replied, turning a page in his book.

’A Level 5 Demon tide, huh.’

The wilderness was different from Dungeons; it was rare for High Tier Demons to appear in the wild. Most of the time, the Demons that appeared in the wild were Tiers One to Three.

Near most towns, there were no Tier Four Demons to subjugate. You would basically only encounter them in Dungeons.

Lu Cang took what Luo Si said seriously.

Instead, he seriously contemplated countermeasures while flipping through *Magic Advancement*.

’This isn’t a good sign. Should I lie low for a while?’

’A Tier Five Demon is three tiers above me. There’s a high chance I wouldn’t be able to beat it. The best option would be to hide somewhere safe and wait for this Demon tide to pass.’

Lu Cang pretended to ask casually, "Sister Luo Si, are there any other relatively safe towns nearby?"

Luo Si tilted her head back and thought for a moment. "Hmm, I don’t think there’s anywhere safer than Raine Town."

"The Kingdom’s strongest are all rushing over here. There’s no way they’ll just let a Demon tide of this scale run rampant."

"Besides, Raine Town already has several Level 5 Adventurers."

"On the contrary, if you go out recklessly now, it’s easy to run into a fully-formed, powerful Demon all by yourself."

"But with your strength, Little Lu Cang, you could definitely survive against a Tier Four Demon~"

’Oh, so that means I wouldn’t survive against a Tier Five Demon.’

Lu Cang estimated inwardly.

’Let’s see, Iz and the others said they’d be back in about half a month. It’s been thirteen days since they left. They should be back soon. Plus, other Level 5 Adventurers have arrived in Raine Town during this time. Theoretically, the town should be very safe. If the sky falls, they’ll be the ones to hold it up first. If the fighting really reaches the town, I’ll have time to escape. For the next few days, I’ll just hole up in town, read, and rest. I can also take the chance to put my recent ideas about Magic into practice. Thinking about Magic with the mindset of a Transmigrator really does seem to open up new paths.’

"If you want to rest, Little Lu Cang, Meizer and I have arranged to explore a Tier Three Dungeon with another party today."

"You don’t mind, do you~"

Lu Cang nodded. "Mm-hmm, it’s fine. You two be careful."

Luo Si was still capable, and Tier Three Dungeons weren’t that dangerous. Based on his field tests over the past few days, even if they ran into something they couldn’t beat in a Tier Three Dungeon, escaping wouldn’t be a problem.

Luo Si waved goodbye to Lu Cang.

After she left, Lu Cang watched her retreating back.

She was a lively Healer. Once you got to know her, she was the most talkative. The reason she was in debt was that she trusted others too easily.

If someone tried to sell her something, they could get her to buy it all with almost no effort.

As a result, even though she was a Level 3 adventurer who could earn good money, she’d bought a pile of things she couldn’t use: a Defender’s Armor, a Warrior’s sword, a Blacksmith’s anvil, an Assassin’s shoes...

’Heh, it’d be a miracle if she didn’t go bankrupt.’

As for Meizer, after adventuring during the day, he still managed to find the time at night to two-time, juggling two girls without either finding out about the other. He’d even get a room with one, then make an excuse to leave and go meet the other...

’Heh, a model scumbag, truly.’

It was also thanks to the many Gold Coins he earned with Lu Cang that his relationships with those two girls had been heating up, using money as his weapon of conquest.

Every day on the road, he would listen to Meizer shamelessly recount his romantic exploits as if no one else was there.

Of course, this was always accompanied by Luo Si and Trende’s disgust.

But no matter what, they could be considered the first friends Lu Cang had made since coming to this world.

As for Iz and his group... they felt more like mentors and friends—guides and enlighteners.

...

Lu Cang spent the entire day at the library. On his way back to the inn at dusk, he passed by the Adventurer’s Guild.

He saw a white notice posted on the wall.

’Another Adventurer has gone missing.’

Even though Adventurers made all sorts of preparations before every expedition, there were always times when they would slip up.

Some Adventurers who managed to escape would report to the Guild that their teammates had been killed or had gone missing in a Dungeon.

The Guild would then post a list of the missing, just like this one.

They were listed as missing, but in reality, they were probably dead, as very few ever returned.
