Dragon Ball: Saiyan's Culinary Journey Through the Heavens

Chapter 126 Giant Frog Hunter

Chapter 126 Giant Frog Hunter

Time flies, and before Broly knew it, a week had passed since he arrived in this new world.

The return time of this world is different from that of the previous two worlds.

[Location screen time: 28 days, 14 hours, and 29 minutes]

[Current time on screen: 286 days, 0 hours, and 50 minutes]

After arriving in this world, Crystal Palace gave me two repatriation timelines.

The former is the time of the celestial realm where Aqua originally resided, which was synchronized with the time of Broly's original world.

The latter is the time of the world we are in now, which is in a time flow ratio of 1 to 10 with the time of the celestial realm.

According to the clues given by the Crystal Palace, if he directly travels to this world, he will only be able to stay for less than a month.

However, since they went to the Celestial Realm first and then came here, the repatriation countdown was calculated according to the location interface, which is the Celestial Realm time.

Of course, according to Crystal Palace, his physical time is still calculated in celestial time.

. . . .

"Hunting a thousand giant frogs—no one has ever accomplished such a feat during the giant frog breeding season..."

On her seventh day in the other world, Aqua is being awarded a medal of honor for her active role in fighting the giant frog, Broly.

Giant frogs are not considered particularly dangerous monsters for adventurers, but for ordinary people, they are more likely to endanger their lives than high-level monsters.

"I, Prosecutor Serena, on behalf of the town of Axel, hereby confer upon Miss Aqua the title of Outstanding Adventurer of Axel and the title of Giant Frog Hunter!"

A capable woman with long, straight black hair pinned the medal on Aqua's head, and after she finished speaking, enthusiastic applause erupted from the audience.

Most of the people applauding were farmers who had suffered from giant frogs for too long and felt terrified every time the giant frogs came to breed.

They wanted to hire adventurers to hunt giant frogs, but couldn't offer high prices. Each time, they relied on subsidies from the town government and the Adventurers' Guild to get some adventurers to hunt giant frogs, reduce their numbers, and make the farm and their lives a little safer.

However, unexpectedly, before the giant frog breeding season had even reached its peak this year, a formidable high priest like Aqua emerged, taking the lead in the fight against the giant frogs.

This made the farmers around Axel very grateful, and after they jointly reported it to the city lord's mansion, today's commendation came about.

Of course, more importantly, the price per unit for the giant frog extermination quest will decrease because Broly in Aqua's squad has been exterminating too many giant frogs.

The sheer number of giant frogs hunted has severely impacted Axel's frog meat market, reducing its price from 600 elixir per kilogram to 100 elixir per kilogram.

With frog meat not fetching a good price, official subsidies and rewards from farmers jointly commissioning the hunt for giant frogs have made it difficult to maintain the previous price of 5,000 Eris.

"Miss Aqua, this is a reward of 500,000 Eris that I am giving to you on behalf of the town and the Adventurers' Guild. It is a reward for your team's efforts in defeating the giant frog and maintaining the safety of the area around Axel."

However, Axel's safety is threatened not only by monsters like the giant frog, but by many other monsters as well.

If possible, would you please continue leading the team to help Axel eliminate further threats?

"That's what the city prosecutor, Serena, asked after handing over the reward," she said.

"No problem, leave everything to me!"

Aqua was very excited on the podium. As a goddess, she should respond to the prayers of her believers. Although the people below were not yet followers of the Axis religion, she was willing to give a corresponding response to those who placed high hopes on her.

She, Aqua, is a goddess who can bring peace of mind to people.

"Since Lady Aqua is so enthusiastic and responsible, then it just so happens that the guild has a request that urgently needs to be handled..."

Beside her, after Aqua finished expressing her opinion, Luna, the receptionist from the Adventurers' Guild, brought over a new quest sheet, seemingly having been prepared in advance.

. . . .

"Broly, Broly..."

Aqua rushed into Marianne's house in a somewhat flustered manner.

"What's wrong?"

Broly, who was practicing water purification at home, looked over with some curiosity.

"What else could it be? This guy got a little carried away when he went on stage to receive the award, and then he took on a troublesome task."

Marian followed behind, covering her forehead, and said that ever since she went with the two to fight the giant frog, Marian had realized who was really the one dealing the damage.

Undeniably, Aqua possesses powerful support abilities, but compared to the boy's simple and direct violent output, her support abilities are truly negligible.

If Broly hadn't been so nonchalant, Marian would have wanted to knock Aqua's head off. He brags to others about being a master at hunting giant frogs, but in the end, he's just relying on his cute apprentice to deal damage.

"is that so?"

Broly looked at Aqua.

"I'm sorry, but in that situation on stage, I simply couldn't refuse."

As Aqua apologized, she hugged the boy's waist.

"Broly, please, you have to help me."

Aqua Nobita pleaded.

"So, Master Aqua, what exactly did you accept as a commission?"

Broly Doraemon asked.

"In fact, she was commissioned to deal with a rookie assassin, a dark monster that had recently appeared near Axel."

The magical beast seemed to be able to judge the adventurers' levels. When it encountered high-level adventurers, it would not show itself at all, but when it encountered low-level adventurers, it would jump out and attack those novice adventurers.

Many new adventurers have already lost their lives because of this, and the Adventurers' Guild is quite worried. You and Aqua are adventurers with relatively low levels but very strong abilities.

Therefore, the Adventurers' Guild wants your help to solve the problem of the "newcomer killer."

Marian helped explain.

In this world, you can't level up by constantly killing low-level monsters. So, even though Broly hunted a lot of giant frogs and other monsters this week, he still couldn't level up.

However, even now, his and Aqua's adventurer levels are still below level twelve, making them genuine novice adventurers.

"This doesn't seem like such a difficult task, does it?"

Broly asked curiously.

"It's not difficult for you, but for Aqua..."

Marian didn't say what she was going to say next, but Broly understood the implication.

"Given Aqua's fighting style, it would probably be like throwing a meat bun to a dog—a one-way trip."

He continued.
