It was late afternoon, and we had finished killing the demons we had requested, so we decided to go to the adventurer's guild to report our achievement.
"I've come to report my achievement.
I told the receptionist.
I said to the receptionist, "Hey, isn't that Mr. Valius? You're early today, aren't you?
The receptionist replied with a smile.
The receptionist smiled and replied, "Well, I didn't receive many orders today.
As I said that, I took out the proof of defeat from the storage spell and put it on the counter.
I adjusted the number of orders I received today by calculating the number of achievements required for promotion to B rank.
That's why I came home earlier than usual.
I was able to come home earlier than usual because of that. "Even though it's a small number, it's still an inexplicable number. It's just that the pace up until yesterday was insane!
The receptionist replied, and proceeded to process the request fulfillment status.
It's really a surprise to me 10 days ago, you know? I was worried about whether Mr. Valius would be able to meet the deadline, but instead of meeting the deadline, he completed all of his requests that day. I was wondering what was going on.
The receptionist had a nostalgic look on her face.
10 days ago...... indeed, the receptionist's panic was quite impressive at that time.
In the event that you have any questions regarding where and how to use the site, you can contact us at .......
It's a good thing, though, because it's a pain in the ass to have to deal with all the fuss every time.
The guild card has been processed. ......, oh! Congratulations, Mr. Valius. With today's payment, you've fulfilled the number of requests required for promotion to B rank!
The receptionist gave me a big smile and handed me her guild card.
That's right.
I've received a number of orders to make sure that happens.
"So, ...... I'm pretty sure I have to take the guild exam to get promoted to B rank, right?
I asked this question while receiving my guild card from the receptionist.
Because there was a page in the student handbook of the elite academy that explained that.
And all you need to do to get promoted is to take the exam.
Oh, so you know about that! That's right, even if you're Valius, you still have to take the exam. ......
I'm not sure what to say, but I'm sure you'll understand.
...... That's a curious phrase.
You'll be able to find a lot more information on the web.
I asked the examiner if I could exempt him from the exam, because I felt sorry for him having to deal with Mr. Valerius. And yet, the examiner! I'm not sure what to make of that.
I mean, the guild rules are not something that can be changed at the discretion of the receptionist.
Well, I have a lot to say, but ...... the most important thing for me right now is when I can take the exam, so I decided to ask her about it.
What's the schedule for that exam?
"That's ......, I'll go check it out!
The receptionist said, and went into the back room.
According to the guild's rules, you can't make an appointment with the examiner until you have fulfilled the requirements for promotion in terms of performance.
In other words, it's impossible to ask for an exam on the day you're going to meet the promotion requirements.
That's why I couldn't inquire about the exam until this moment.
Well, I suppose this is unavoidable, since it would be rare for a person to accumulate achievements like this as planned.
Now I can only hope that the examiners' schedules will be adjusted as soon as possible. ......
As I was thinking about this, the receptionist came back with a smile.
Mr. Valerius, good for you! I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that ...... another person's promotion exam will be held today, and they'll be able to take your exam as well!
...... Really?
That's a lot of luck.
Then, please take it.
I understand. It's a great way to make sure you're getting the most out of your time with your family and friends. ...... You probably don't need to ask this of Mr. Valerius, but are you sure you're going to be able to take the test immediately after returning from the commission? You don't need to adjust the condition or anything like that. ......
It's fine.
I answered the receptionist's question immediately.
I'm not sure what to do, but I'm not going to do it.
There was no need to adjust my condition.
The test will start in about an hour, so please wait there.
The receptionist said, pointing to a chair in the guild waiting area.
The receptionist pointed to a chair in the guild waiting area. ...... I thought you said there were other test takers today.
So, ...... you have to pass this exam as overwhelmingly as possible.
In this world, not even A rank adventurers want to go to the island of self-determination.
In fact, it is unlikely that any B-rank adventurer would want to set foot on a self-determination island.
This means that the difficulty of forming a temporary party will be much higher than before.
However, if I do well in this test, ...... perhaps today's test takers will see that and say, "I'll go with you to the island of suicide if you're with Valius.
If that happens, the search for temporary party members, which is expected to be difficult, will become much easier.
