My Skill Bar is Full of Monster Skills-Chapter 299 - 184: The Girl Grace
"Understood, please wait a moment, Mr. Rein." Liya quickly operated behind the counter, and soon her eyes lit up.
"Mr. Rein, there is one. Within the Soladin Kingdom, there’s a mission’s commission: the reward is 5 grams of Star Iron, the mission location is at the border with the Urein Empire to the south, and it requires clearing out a cult’s lair."
Upon hearing this, Rein furrowed his brows and began to ponder.
Just 5 grams of Star Iron is far from the 62 grams needed, and the mission location is so far away.
It seems a bit unrealistic....
Purchase?
Buying was the first thought that came to Rein’s mind, but on second thought, that also didn’t seem feasible.
Perhaps 2 grams or 3 grams of Star Iron could still be bought, but anything over 10 grams was nearly impossible, let alone a full 62 grams.
After all, as soon as other forces or organizations discover rare Star Iron for sale, they would purchase it immediately.
So currently, there seems to be only one way—post a bounty—put a bounty on information related to Star Iron.
"Miss Liya, please help me post a mission, offering a bounty for any information related to Star Iron. They can contact me, and I’ll give rewards based on the reliability of the information and the amount of Star Iron."
The related information will inevitably have some kind of difficulty or danger, which Rein naturally considered.
But this seems to be his only possible chance to get enough Star Iron; specific evaluations can be made based on the information later.
"Alright, understood, Mr. Rein."
"Yes, lastly, please organize a directory of combat skills related to each class and place it in a private rest room. I’ll come by this afternoon."
"Understood, Mr. Rein."
Regarding the review of combat skills, Rein planned to do that after returning to Wind Letter Village.
After finishing the above matters, he headed towards the communal rest area in the upstairs hall, where Sulfur Vine, Elise, and Giant Blade Squad were discussing something.
"Mr. Rein, we agreed last time, didn’t we? We should visit Lankote Snowfield together when we have time." Schneider immediately stood up when he saw Rein, warmly grabbing his hand.
"Oh? Mr. Schneider has a target now? However, I have some things to attend to these days, so it’ll be a few days before I can go."
"No problem, no problem, we just returned from the Valley of Dead Water, so we’ll rest for three to five days first," Schneider chuckled while waving his hand.
"Alright!" Rein glanced around, especially noticing the expectant eyes of everyone, then nodded.
On one hand, just the purchase of single Mithril required a substantial amount of money, and later on, it would undoubtedly involve adventures to earn more, as missions on the snowfield often offered rich rewards, so going there wouldn’t hurt.
On the other hand, the Giant Blade Squad was a relatively familiar adventurer squad he had cooperated with before. Additionally, with Sulfur Vine’s reason of enthusiastic invitation, refusing again would be somewhat inappropriate.
Soon, after some pleasantries, everyone went their separate ways, Laisa needed to write a letter to her younger brother and sister, and Reya intended to research some advancement information about Phantom Shooter.
As for Sulfur Vine, he continued reminiscing with the Giant Blade Squad in the communal rest area.
Rein, meanwhile, accompanied Elise downstairs.
...
About two hours later.
Rein and Elise arrived outside Wind Letter Village by carriage.
In winter, the wheat fields outside the village had long been harvested, with straw neatly stacked to the side. Under the golden warm sun, they emitted a faint, gentle glow, adding some warmth to the atmosphere.
Crossing the field ridges, a variety of well-arranged houses came into view for both of them.
A large number of hyacinths were planted around Wind Letter Village, from which the village took its name. However, it was early winter, not the time for hyacinths to bloom. If it were summertime, the scenery would be entirely different.
A few minutes later.
Seeing Rein and Elise’s approaching figures, a few villagers at the village entrance hurried into the village and soon surrounded an elder of slightly older age who came forward.
"Good afternoon, esteemed adventurers, welcome to our Wind Letter Village." Still a few steps away, the elder, with a hint of reverence, immediately bowed and greeted them.
"No need to be nervous, we just came to inquire about something. Could you tell us if Robin’s home is here?"
Upon hearing Rein’s question, the elder and the other villagers all looked astonished.
"Yes, sir, but some time ago, we heard from the messenger sent by the association that Robin has unfortunately passed away, dear sirs..."
It was apparent the elder thought Rein and Elise were unaware of Robin’s situation.
"I know, I just want to ask, where is Robin’s home? We’re here to visit his family."
Hearing Rein’s words, the villagers all looked surprised.
After all, since Robin passed away, almost no adventurers had come anymore.
"Their home is over there, just a mother and daughter left."
"While we do help out whenever we can daily, the harvest in the village hasn’t been particularly good this year, so our aid is somewhat limited," the elder said as he sighed.
"Sir, let me accompany you there."
Rein waved his hand and said, "No need, we’ll go there ourselves."
...
It only took them less than three minutes to reach the front of an ordinary, single-story sloped-roof house.
The house was only one story, with a small courtyard of more than twenty square meters in front. At this moment, Rein’s gaze had already penetrated the low fence and saw a thin, weak little girl sitting on a wooden chair.
The little girl was young, around thirteen or fourteen years old, but she kept her eyes tightly shut. Her facial features were somewhat thin, and her pale yellow hair was a bit dry, but it was neatly combed.
