"Is it true that 'Knuth's Arrow Hope' has returned!
After a while, an old man I had never seen before rushed in from the back of the guild, perhaps as a replacement for the receptionist who had fainted at .......
It's a good idea to take a look at your own personal life.
...... I've seen this crest somewhere before.
I think I've seen it on a page of the student handbook.
Could it be that this guy ......
"Are you the guildmaster?
If I remember correctly, I asked him.
"Yes. Indeed, I am Dien, Guildmaster of the Merkel's Adventurer's Guild.
The man replied to my question.
And then he continued.
You ...... came to the guild with Knuth's Arrow of Hope, what the hell is going on?
The Guildmaster looked at me and the four of us in turn with a look of confusion on his face.
Before I could even open my mouth, the leader answered.
I was wandering on the island of self-determination when Lord Valius saved me.
The remaining three added their own explanations to that of the leader.
"If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have made it back from Suicide Island.
"He has defeated demons that we could not stand without a fight.
He only saw the Blue Phoenix and other nameless evil monsters as materials. It was a frightening and reassuring sight to behold. ......
Blue Phoenix?
...... Oh, I think we also killed a mutant Indigo Phoenix on the way to meeting the Golden Horn and Silver Horn.
Perhaps I misread that.
And now the guild master spoke up.
Blue Phoenix ...... Oh, I've heard of that one too. I've heard that this man, Valius, once tried to sell the Blue Phoenix as part of his mission to defeat Hercules.
I'm not sure what it is, but I don't think my mind is numb ...... to the fact that I don't feel any discomfort at all despite the fact that it's all bullshit.
After listening to the guildmaster's story, for some reason the leader sighed and said so .
...... Ah, you're talking about the time when we formed that temporary party.
I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one who's had it.
While I was reminiscing like that.
The guildmaster, with a difficult look on his face, quickly processed some paperwork ...... and then looked me in the eye and opened his mouth.
"Ah, Mr. Varrius, ....... In the event you have any questions regarding where and how to use the site, please feel free to contact me at .......
...... Special measures?
I felt a little uneasy when I heard that word.
I was a little nervous when I heard the word "special measures." "What the ...... hell do you mean by special measures?
I asked with some trepidation.
The reply I got was something like this.
"Well. First of all, ...... you will be certified as an S rank adventurer.
...... I don't remember there being such a thing.
I was puzzled by the mention of a system that was not mentioned in the student handbook or in the documents given to me by the guild.
But the reaction of the members of ...... Knuth's Arrow Hope was different.
You mean ...... is going to release a rank that's never been used since the guild was founded?
Plex asked the guild master that question.
......S ranks, is that such a big deal?
It's not something you'd write about in a typical guide, so it's not surprising that I didn't know about it.
However, I wonder if just bringing back an A-ranked party would be such a history-making event.
The guild master has no way of knowing that I used Resurrect the Dead. ......
The guildmaster then made a statement that I couldn't believe my ears.
Then you will have an audience with the king soon.
What about ......?
How big is this story going to get?
Is it such a big deal that you brought that ...... A-rank party back from the suicide island?
I thought it was finally funny, so I asked that question.
Knuth's Arrow of Hope was the country's strongest and most legendary A-ranked party that was supposed to have died on Suicide Island 20 years ago. And now you've resurrected a legend that was thought to have been lost. I don't have to tell you how much that means to me.
