Job Location: Beanstalk Village
Job Description: Beanstalk Village; nestled in the most northern forests of Fiore alongside the Clover River. This village is responsible for a good bit of Fiore's farm and produce production alongside River Village, and Peace Village. Everything from vegetables, too beef, too steak, too pork can come from here.
However; all crops in the village; have whithered and grown thorns. Quite strange no? They also glow with a strange light; as if some kind of bad magics are at work; holding the crops into this foul state.
There aren't any wizards in the village; so they're completely baffled how entire crop fields of wheat, corn, and tomatoes could just sprout black thorns, wither, and glow. It's very, very, VERY; strange to them.
However; when you arrive; the cursed plants react to your magic power; revealing to the villagers the source of the problem. Plant Demons; feeding off of their crops.
The Plant Demons appear; popping up in waves. They look quite cute; each Plant Demon either has a head and body made up of whatever vegetable it is; with thin white legs and arms; and glowing red eyes with a mouth that they love to use to eat real crops; and too trash talk.
They will pop out of the ground randomly when they sense Magic Power for the first time in Beanstalk Village; and attack. The curse will wear off when you dispose of the Plant Demons.
Enemies:
Weak: Tomato Plant Demon x10 (D-Ranked, these Demons are real trash talkers; nothing is off limits to them. With a body like a giant tomato. Despite their tough talk; they're very weak and go down in just two hits of D-Ranked damage each; they will try to belly flop and body slam their opponents; their special technique is 'Tomato Juice Cannon'; which blasts their opponent with a stream of ketchup from their mouth; careful it packs a punch and deals D-Ranked damage and knockback that will lift you off your feet if hit.)
Normal: Corn Plant Demon x5 (D-Ranked, these Demons have a body like a giant corn cob. They don't talk tough; but think themselves very stylish. They will attempt to body flop, and body ram opponents much like the Tomato Plant Demons. Their special technique is 'Corn Corn Cannon' in which they exhale a stream of Corn, flying at bullet speed. They hurt like hell; equivalent to almost having baseballs thrown at you. Enough of them will K.O even tough wizards. This deals C-Ranked damage if hit. The Corn Plant Demons go down in 3 hits of D-Ranked damage each.)
Strong: Broccolli Plant Demon x10 (C-Ranked, these demons have a body like broccolli with glowing red eyes. They are very fast; and will charge opponents quickly with shoulder rams, and punches. Their special technique is 'Broccolli Swat'; in which they cock their body back like a gigantic fly swatter, and slam their Broccolli heads down on their opponent in a gigantic smash. This deals C-Ranked damage, and can K.O quite easily. If caught off guard you will be slow to move around and be sore for the next post. The Broccolli Plant Demons go down in 5 hits of D-Ranked damage each.)
Boss: Dark Wizard (The one who put the curse on the entire Farmlands of Beanstalk Village; this guy is not to be trifled with. He is an middle aged man with an extremely impressive beard; wearing dark robes. He uses Curse Magic. Once per turn; he will try to make one of your limbs like jelly, as well as cause you to see and hear things that aren't there. His Curse spells can do everything from make you blind, make you not able to hear, paralyze one limb, make you not be able to speak, and the ability to make your own spells backfire on you. If you roll a 'Failed Block'; you will be Cursed with one of these effects, takes 15 hits of D-Ranked damage to bring this guy down.)
Reward: 10,000 Jewels + 2 Extra D ranks exp(added after any bonus calculation)
There was a haunting beauty up ahead as the sun began to set over Beanstalk Village, a village known for its farming and contribution of food to the entire surrounding area. It was a place that Mitsuo Takahashi had visited earlier in his wizarding career and he remembered thinking that it was nice, but there was an odd aura that was visible to him from here. He had accepted a job to come and try to discover the cause of the wilted crops recently, something that would ruin this village if it was not taken care of, which Mitsuo simply couldn't allow to happen. He could see the black thorns and the haunting glow from outside of the village, and even as he approached it he could feel a dark power reacting to him, sending a shiver up his spine and causing the hairs on the back of his neck to stand on end. He ran his fingers through his medium length blonde hair and shook his head, moving the hair out of his piercing blue eyes as he examined the fields in the distance. He was fortunate enough to have his trusty weapons on him, his twin swords and the Blade of Atlas between the two of them on his back. The weight had become comfortable to him, and when it wasn't there he never quite felt right.
He had heard none of the villagers here were wizards, so the fact that there were magical crops was something that didn't quite make sense with him, and having noticed the dark aura coming off of the crops it was quite obvious to him that it was the work of a dark wizard. He was curious if it was someone in one of the dark guilds or just some kind of independent wizard who was just out to make chaos in the world. Mitsuo scanned the surrounding area, making his way towards a couple of the villagers who were milling about. He could tell that none of them were themselves as the last time he had been here everyone was so friendly and seemed quite happy going about their daily lives. These people were shells of what they generally were, all of the happiness seeming to have faded from them. Mitsuo didn't blame them for not being happy about what was happening in their village and their lives, everything seeming to be going downhill for this village, but he hoped that after today they would be able to start going on with their lives once again. He approached one of them, smiling and waving as he approached the man. His hair and beard were unkempt and his clothes had seen better days. Mitsuo knew that they generally looked like they worked constantly but they usually also took care of themselves a little better than this.
"Howdy there," Mitsuo's voice was gentle and caring, flashing a wide smile as he spoke. The man nodded to acknowledge him and Mitsuo continued. "I'm from the Fairy Tail guild, and I'm here to hopefully figure out what's going on with your village." The man seemed to perk up a little bit as he heard Mitsuo's words, but as he looked him over he frowned again and shook his head.
"Boy, you don't know what you're dealing with. You're still a young man, I don't want to see another mage killed trying to fix our problems for us." His voice showed off the hollow shell of the man who had formerly been a proud farmer. Mitsuo frowned briefly as he spoke, but he didn't let the man's word deter him.
"I appreciate your concern sir, but I have never been one to back down from a job. I've been a part of Fairy Tail for a while now, and we are not people who are known for knowing the meaning of the word quit. I'm going to figure out what's wrong and bring whoever is behind this to justice. Please don't worry about me, I will not allow anything to bring me low. I studied the lost art of Memory Magic for years, and even though I was told I'd never be able to do it, I persevered and was able to finally learn how to use it. I approach every situation with the same drive and determination as I approached learning my magic. You might not think I am up to the challenge, but you have no right to stop me from trying and I guarantee you that I will surprise you in the long run." The man seemed somewhat impressed with Mitsuo's answer. There was a bit more hope on his face than Mitsuo had seen in the village in general, which was something that caused Mitsuo to smile.
"Very well, I've heard stories of the wizards of Fairy Tail. You are certainly a determined bunch, I'll give you that, and you fought tooth and nail to get back to a place where your guild wasn't considered a dark guild." At the mention of Fairy Tail being a dark guild, Mitsuo grimaced somewhat. He didn't like that the guild that he was so proud of had fallen from grace, but he was also proud that they had fought to get back to where they once were. “I hope you’re right. I hope you don’t just end up being another in a lengthening line of wizards who have fallen trying to figure out this blight.” The man pointed towards the area and explained to him what he knew, or at least what he had seen, of what was attacking their village and Mitsuo thanked him with a simple nod of the head and a smile, making his way towards the wilted crops and the field of thorns and darkness.
Mitsuo was absolutely determined to free this place from the stranglehold of the darkness and oppression that it faced, and he would stop at nothing to do so. He gripped the Blade of Atlas in his hands and marched to meet the mastermind maniac behind the mutilation of this place.
