Almighty Summoner System

"Elder Monk Tree?" Kuys stared at Ban for a second while he wiped his wet hands with a white handkerchief.

"What are you using it for?" He inquired.

Suddenly, Ban was at a loss on what to do, and just as he was about to answer randomly, the Almighty Summoner System suddenly injected the Elder Monk Tree's information directly into his brain.

His mind jolted for a second before it went back to normal. Kuys did not notice anything strange as he continued staring at Ban, waiting for his response.

Ban's expression did not change when the information was injected into his mind. After a while, he finally answered, "Well, the truth is, I am having trouble sleeping lately and I heard that by lighting up a branch of the Elder Monk Tree, and by inhaling the smoke, it will be able to calm my mind."

Hearing that, Kuys only stared at Ban without saying anything.

Ban felt restless with his intense stare. He could not endure it anymore as he inquired, "Is something wrong with my face?"

Kuys ignored his question as he stated, "Why didn't you tell me sooner? Since when did it start?"

"Uhm… two to three days ago?"

Kuys nodded his head, "I see! The fireplace of the bar actually uses Elder Monk Tree's as firewood so that the Adventurers who dine here will be able to calm themselves.

However, I reduced its dosage a few days ago as I could no longer have the luxury of obtaining a branch of Elder Monk Tree due to the bar being busy lately."

"Well, just in time. I'll issue a Quest and let you go to the Elder Monk Tree by yourself and harvest some branches. For the rewards, I could let you choose between Coins or a branch from the Elder Monk Tree. However, I expect that you would choose the latter as you also need it right now.

I could only give you 6 Elder Monk Tree branches at most though. But considering how small your room is, 5 branches should be able to last you for a month."

Kuys stated as he took a piece of paper and a pen from one of the shelves. He then started writing and after he finished it, he glanced around and called a waitress to come over.

The girl arrived in front of the desk with a nonchalant expression. She bowed at Kuys while ignoring Ban that was just on her side.

However, when she noticed the ant lying on his shoulder, her attention was attracted to it for a moment before she refocused her gaze to Kuys again.

"Emilia, take this to your Sister, Marrie and let her issue and Grade the Quest. However, don't let her post it on the Quest Board as it will be Ban here who will do the Quest." He said while pointing his fingers at Ban.

Emilia nodded her head without saying anything.

"That's all, you can go now! Be careful on your way there!" Kuys added.

Emilia then turned around and left the Kuys Bar after bowing to Kuys.

"She's still as cold as always!" Ban released a sigh as she stared at her fading figure.

"Hahaha! Ban, are you perhaps interested in her?" Kuys laughed out loud after seeing Ban's expression. It was his first time seeing Ban comment about one's personality, especially for the opposite sex.

"What? No way!" Ban hurriedly denied it. From all the waiters around, Ban was the only male and Emilia was the only one cold among the females.

She treats everyone the same except Kuys. However, even with her attitude, many Adventurers still adored her and some of them even went to the extent of only coming to the Kuys Bar just to see her.

And in fact, Ban only came into contact with those kinds of relationships when he arrived at the Eagle City. It was not surprising as his gramps never talked about those kinds of things before. One could even say that he's a complete newbie to that kind of relationship.

"Come on! You don't need to deny something obvious. However, aren't you too young for that? I guess that your little winny did not even start standing yet- hahaha!" Kuys slammed the table as he laughed loudly while teasing Ban.

Recalling the event that happened years ago, when Ban saw a man and woman kissing each other, Kuys could not help but burst into laughing again. Ban's expression at that time was really a little diabolical.

The Adventurers turned their heads towards Kuys and Ban's direction after hearing those thunderous laughs, however, when they saw who it was, they immediately turned their heads again as they continued what they were doing before.

Ban was already used to Kuys teasing so he just sat there calmly ignoring his laughs.

After a while, Kuys finally calmed himself down as he rubbed his aching stomach. "Well, if you truly like her just say so, I can guarantee my full support to you. Age doesn't matter on love, young man. However… be sure to have your little winny stand up first-hahaha…"

Ban shook his head as waited again for Kuys to calm down.

"Well, anyways, the Adventurers Guild would still need to confirm the validity of the Quest I issued and it might take a day at most. However, considering Marrie, she will most likely prioritize it and it might be available to accept tonight."

"Alright, thank you grandpa Kuys!" Ban expressed his thanks and stood up from his seat.

"Ehh? Where are you going?"

Ban stopped for a moment before he answered without hesitation, "I'll look around the city for available part-time jobs."

"Hmm? You just earned some coins earlier right? Just rest for the day. You already awakened, no need to save that much coins now, right?"

Ban shook his head before saying, "It's better to prepare for rainy days grandpa Kuys. I'll go now, I'll be sure to return tonight to help the Kuys Bar."

"Look at this kid acting as if he's an old man. Alright go then, be careful." Kuys shook his head for a moment before a smile surfaced on his face.

And right before Ban could sprint out of the Kuys Bar, Kuys suddenly added, "Before I forgot, your crush will have a performance tonight, be sure to support her alright?"

Ban almost tripped after hearing Kuys' shout. He did not stay on the bar any longer as he was afraid of getting teased by Kuys again.

He sprinted out of the Kuys Bar and his destination was no other than the Adventures Market.
