Nfirea's Herb Quest

Nfirea's Herb Quest was an adventurer's quest undertaken by the Swords of Darkness and the two new adventurers: Momon and Nabe.

Background
In the fortress city of E-Rantel, the iron ranked adventurer Brita wishing to appraise a strange red potion she received as compensation for her damaged potion was referenced to Lizzie Bareare the highly skilled pharmacist in the city. At the Bareare's pharmacy, she meets, Lizzie's grandson, Nfirea Bareare, who upon seeing the potion, immediately takes it to his grandmother. The senior pharmacist intrigued at the odd potion casts [Appraisal Magic Item] and [Detect Magic Enchantment].

To her surprise, the potion shows no signs of deterioration compared to normal potions, whose enchantments fade over time. In an effect, an item is an idealized form of potion that alchemists and herbalists have been attempting to reach. She explains that there are legends of such potions also known as God's Blood. Lizzie then explains that the potion is akin to a 2nd Tier healing spell and worth at least eight gold pieces. Brita is thrilled at the value of the item, and anxiously noticed the pharmacist’s intent desire to acquire the Potion. The senior offers to give thirty-two gold pieces for it. Brita is hesitant to accept and afraid to decline until Nfirea offers a proposal that may satisfy both parties.

Quest
Meanwhile in the E-Rantel Adventurer's Guild, Momon and Nabe attempt to claim work, however, they face difficulties due to the language barrier as they are unable to read New World script. Momon selects a job post at random, but unfortunately, the receptionist informs him that the post is for a Mythril ranked adventurer. Momon bluffs himself through his error stating he realized that and that is why he wished to take it nonetheless. The receptionist firmly refuses, as the pairs are copper ranked and rookies. Momon’s actions attract the adventurers' hostility for stepping out of line. To save face, Momon declares that he and his partner are more than ready, stating that Nabe is a practitioner of the 3rd Tier and boasts that they are in for real jobs. The hostility the other have of them quickly vanishes, but despite the impressive bravado the guild staff refuses to allow him to take the job.

Momon and Nabe take the interest of a silver ranked adventurer party, Swords of Darkness. They are introduced to Peter Mauk, Lukrut Volve, Dyne Woodwonder, and Ninya. Getting acquainted with each other, Momon and Nabe are offered to work with the Swords of Darkness in a monster extermination job south of E-Rantel. The area will be near the Great Forest of Tob, but the silver rank adventurers believe that they will not face many serious foes, other than goblins and ogres. The two copper adventurers accept the joint quest. The silver rank adventurers look forward at working together and agreed to split the proceeds of the mission. Before they move to go on any further the group ask to view Momon's face to which he complies. To their surprise, his face appears that of a human from the south, however, in reality, it is an illusion cast by Momon to hide his heteromoprhic origins. Happy that they are satisfied, Momon asks if they have any more questions, which causes Lukrut to enthusiastically asks what his relationship with Nabe is. Once Momon states that they are companions, the ranger attempts to flirt with Nabe only to have her bluntly rebuff his advances. Disappointed but unfettered Lukrut ask if they can start as friends with his response from Nabe to die. Momon and Peter seeing their two companions feuding decided it would be best to set out.

Just as the merged group are about to depart from the guild, Momon is informed that someone has requested his presence. Its later revealed to be Nfirea Bareare who wishes to hire out Momon's services. Momon initially declines as he already made a commitment to assisting the Swords of Darkness. The silver ranked adventurers don't wish to turn away Nfirea as he is a prominent figure in the city. At an impasse, Momon has the young pharmacist explain the details of his job. Nfirea complied explaining that he wished to procure Momon and his companion as bodyguards on his upcoming journey to harvest herbs in the Tob Forests. To comprise Momon suggests that the Nfirea hire out all of them. Now in agreement, their employer informs the adventurers that before reaching the forest, they will set up a base of operations in the nearby Carne Village.

Journeying from the city, the group takes the route headed north, and then east along the outskirts of the forest. Despite the path having a greater possibility of encountering monsters, it was taken to fulfill the Swords of Darkness’s original monster quest. Plus with their companions Momon and Nabe the group was confident they could overcome any obstacle.

On the journey, Momon learned of the existence of the Wise King of the Forest, a fearsome magical beast whose territory laid within the vicinity of Carne Village. The rookie adventurer became interested in such a beast and made it acquiring the Wise King a priority. Simultaneously Momon had to restrain Nabe from attacking Lukrut due to his flirtatious personality. During these instances, he would regret bringing Nabe as a partner, though since she was one of the few human-looking heteromorphs in Nazarick it could not be helped.

A day of traveling, Lukrut detected a party of fifteen goblins and six ogres from the forest. Taking battle stances, Momon claims that he will deal with the majority of the ogres much to the shock of the adventurers. The battle began as Lukrut provided long range cover using his bow and arrows. Peter engaged an ogre with his Martial Arts, whilst Dyne, Ninya, and Nabe provided magical support. Momon brandishing his swords easily cut through the ogres with ease.

Momon’s display of swordsmanship awes the adventurers and drastically causes the morale of the attacking goblins to plummet. The final attack came when Nabe used [Lightning] in conjunction with Dyne’s [Twine Plant], keeping the Ogres still, allowed the efficient kills of the remaining Ogres. The surviving goblins attempted to retreat only to be cut down by Peter and Ninya.

After the battle, the adventurers collects the ears of the Demi-Humans as proof of their kills. The adventurers have nothing but praise for Momon, who humbly brushes their adulation saying they could someday reach his level.
