Manga Chapter 05

Summary
Despite obtaining the necessary material to pass her 'Trail Assignment', members of the guild are reluctant to give her a reward, so she needs to engage in some 'Aggressive Negotiations'.

Synopsis
Upon completing her trial assignment, Flum and Milkit return to the West District Guild to acquire the reward. Unsurprisingly, they are met with resistance. One of Dein’s men make note of how badly Flum smells, and remarks that she probably slept with someone, and got him to take care of the job for her. Flum proceeds to knock the man down and threatens him with her Cursed Sword to make it clear she is the real deal. She then proceeds to collect her reward.

Flum relaxes in the room she rents for herself and Milkit. Flum enjoys the fact she was finally treated like a human again before noticing that Milkit was sitting on the floor. Flum proceeds to tell Milkit she’ll take her out shopping tomorrow. Milkit tells Flum, she’s not worth it, but Flum happily orders Milkit that she has to go shopping with her because she’s her Master.

Despite thinking that everyone in the Hero Party betrayed her, Flum can’t help but wonder how the rest of them are doing. At that moment, the Hero Party is currently engaged in battle with the Demon General Tsyon, and their fight is not going well for them. Cyrill is unable to bring herself to fight due to feeling depressed by Flum's absence. Jean and Eterna are unable to work together with Jean constantly insulting her. While Gadhio, Maria, and Linus attempt to fight Tyson, their efforts are not enough.

As Tyson is ready to unleash an attack, he is hit in the back of the head by Neigass who reminds him that they are not supposed to kill any of the Hero Party members. Their argument leaves the Heroes bewildered by what they are witnessing. Eventually, they leave while telling the Heroes they'll meet again soon enough. All the party members are left dumbfounded with Jean even asking what just happened.

Major Events & Continuity

 * Flum's cloak was destroyed during her fight with the Chimera in the previous chapter. As a result, the only clothing she had left was her slave prison outfit.
 * Flum becomes an official adventurer and manages to acquire the reward for completing the quest.
 * Despite not interacting in this chapter, Flum and Dein are officially enemies.
 * Flum happily orders Milkit to go shopping with her the next morning.
 * The Hero Party are unable to defeat the Demon Generals. Likewise, the Demon Generals are under orders not to kill the Hero Party for currently unknown reasons.
 * Cyrill is still feeling depressed over the fact that Flum is no longer in the Hero’s Party. She thinks she is partly responsible of Flum’s departure, and it renders her unable to use her power to fight the Demon General.

Adaptation Differences

 * In the Light Novel, Y’lla is more hostile to Flum when she returns with the material to complete her quest. In the manga, she is apparently more accepting of the results.
 * While some of Dein's men harass Flum and accuse of selling her body to get the job done in both versions, the method Flum uses differs. In the Light Novel, Flum using the 'Flum Punch' to knock one of them down, but she appears to kick him in the manga.
 * When they are at the guild, Flum makes note she didn’t see Dein there in the Light Novel. In the manga chapter, he makes a silent cameo while listening to Flum claim her reward.  However, it is possible, Flum might not have noticed him since she was focused on other matters.
 * The Innkeeper merely makes a cameo in the manga while he has a speaking role in the Light Novel.
