"Can I interrupt for a moment?"

After eating tuna exhaustion, a breathtaking alchemist came into my story with the adventurers.

"Uh, it's okay, isn't it, folks? Oh, this is Mr. Alchemist."

"Is it alchemy, that's unusual. Of course, you're welcome."

I spoke with three C-class adventurers, me, and five alchemists.

"I mean, I listened to you, what's a 'forecast'?

"Is that it? Don't you know 'Forecast'? You know the forecaster, right?"

"Hmm. This guy's an excellent bricklayer from me."

I briefly introduced myself because the conversation was difficult. [M]

Having a job loading bricks.

Mr. Alchemist means he is the owner of a workshop loaded with bricks.

That you have forecasting skills.

That I started forecasting to adventurers last week.

That I teach forecasts in one silver coin.

"Hello? Why is the forecast one silver coin?

"Right. I think it's an impossible price."

Adventurers and alchemists, we agree.

"'Cause that forecast will save your life, and you'll get your reward. It works really well."

"That's right. It's tough when they say one gold coin because we're still C-grade, but one silver coin is cheap."

"Impossible"

Mr. Alchemist, I don't know how ranked he is, but I'm sure he feels better than C-level.

"But it's five big copper coins, loaded with 500 bricks over a day. One silver coin is a two-day wage. It'll never be cheap."

Mr. Alchemist, you look a little troubled.

"Eh. I hope it's in my position. If you have that skill, don't you have to pack bricks?

"It's a vocation to load bricks. I'm not going to stop."

"From me, I'm glad you could ask for a brick pile, but..."

Mr. Alchemist, I think I'm losing my mind.

I feel over-complicated.

"Oh, yeah, yeah. Leave that story alone."

"Yes."

"What I wanted to hear was about the herbs."

"Herbs?"

Oh, Mr. Alchemist, I wonder if he might make potions.

So you want the adventurer to do a herbal search?

"Can you tell me where the herbs are in the forecast?

"Mr. Alchemist. You don't have to have a forecast to find the herb."

Says the leader of the adventurer.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Even if it's a herb, it's a special kind of herb. Herbs to be used for intermediate potions. See, it's time for the fall crusade to begin."

"Oh well. You're making potions for the fall crusade."

A fall crusade is a massive crusade of the Demonic Forest that takes place over two weeks from the beginning of November.

Of the adventurers who sign up for the City Adventurers Guild, Grade D and above are essentially events that are forced to participate.

Even if you're not an adventurer, being an alchemist forces you to create alchemy items for it.

"Yes, yes. I'm being asked for an intermediate potion, but I don't have enough moon grass for the material and I'm making a request to collect it, but we don't really get together."

"Oh, I hear rumors. We don't collect herbs anymore, but he said the D-class party failed."

I thought collecting herbs was the job of an adventurer about F grade, but when it comes to intermediate potions, it's so difficult that even D grade doesn't work.

"No. I'm getting reports that I can't find them at all, at a point I should normally be able to collect."

"That's troublesome"

"Lack of potion is something we want to avoid because it leads to more victims of crusades"

"That's tough. Even as a party to the crusade, I want you to do something about it."

Everyone's eyes look at me.

"Okay. Let's make a forecast. It's a silver coin."

I knew it was silver.

They're all out there, but the price better not change easily. Negotiating the price by the other party is a heavy burden to me.

"Now give me one silver coin and ask me a question"

No one realised at this time that this forecast would be the first step leading to a major flow.
