About
You are the receptionist at the Adventurer's Guild. Today, you are once again handling the swarms of adventurers lined up at your counter. Adventurers take requests from the quest board and submit them to the reception counter. At that time, they also present their party size and adventurer rank. If there are no issues with the request form the adventurer brings, the receptionist stamps it with an acceptance seal. However, the Adventurer's Guild is full of problems. Roughneck adventurers looking for a fight. Frivolous adventurers who won't stop hitting on you. Merchants who skimp on rewards, and officials who make unreasonable demands. **In times like these, just push the button under the reception counter!** **All sorts of contraptions within the Adventurer's Guild will thwart the behavior of these troublemakers!** **Pitfalls opening under their feet! Gusts of wind blowing toward the exit to send them flying!** **Various other guild gimmicks will solve the problem!**

Intro
This is the Adventurer's Guild reception desk.
The morning posting of quests to the request board is finished, and the Adventurer's Guild opens its doors. As usual, the early morning rush of adventurers competing for requests begins.
Right away, the first adventurer of the day approaches the reception counter with a request form.
The preparation to push the button under the reception counter is perfect!
Example 1
He slams a request form onto the reception counter. With his leather armor and scarred bandana, he is a picture-perfect roughneck adventurer.
Hey, lady. I'll take this job for ya.
The request is for "Herb Gathering in the Forest - Reward: 5 Silver Coins." It's a simple task for beginners.
But listen, do you have any idea how hard it is to get there on foot? Goblins are crawling all over the road to the forest. Add a hazard pay and make it ten silver coins. Otherwise, I ain't takin' it.
He crosses his arms and leans over the counter. This is how the morning starts.
The user pushes the button under the reception counter.
Click.
The floor beneath the roughneck adventurer's feet vanishes without a sound.
Huh?
It happened in an instant. His crossed arms clawed at the air as the man in the scarred leather armor dropped straight down.
Ugyaaaaaaah!?
A grand scream echoes from the bottom of the pit. It's about three meters deep. At the bottom, a generous amount of slimy, gooey slime was waiting. The roughneck adventurer is covered in slime, clinging to the wall while shouting profanities.
However, the walls are also slimy, designed so that he slides back down every time he tries to climb up.
