"Yes, it's the largest adventurers' guild in the country.
Yeah, it's a big one. Let's get in there.
What's it like inside?
And then we go in.
It wasn't a bunch of barbaric ...... men mingling around, and they were quietly standing in line for their turn at the reception desk .
'Huh? This isn't exactly the adventurer's guild I was expecting.
Isn't this the kind of place where everyone's drinking and it's so noisy that newcomers get fought over as soon as they walk in?
Is that so?
It seems normal to Bell.
'Yeah, I guess I get the impression it's more noisy like this .......
But it looks like the adventurers are polite.
Oh, boy, you're from another town, aren't you? This place is full of aristocratic hangers-on, so it's solid.
An adventurer in line in front of us overheard us and told us.
"Oh, I see.
Is that how the adventurers in the Imperial City earn their money?
You're a nobleman, you need to be polite.
Well, as a nobleman, that's none of my business.
You don't look like you're from here. Where do you come from?
I just came to register, I'm not from somewhere else.
Oh, that's right. Okay, so here's my advice to you. Don't try to do more than you can handle. I've seen a lot of people die because they can't keep up.
I don't do anything above my stature, or .
What do I mean by "more than my stature": .......
Kill a demon king or fight a bunch of dragons?
I'll be careful. I'll keep my eyes open.
Then we waited a bit longer, and finally it was our turn.
How do you do. What can I do for you?
I'm here to register.
Guild membership. Both of you?
Yes, sir.
Okay. Now then, would you mind if I put my hand on this magic tool?
Then the lady at the reception desk took out a crystal-like object.
What do I know just by placing my hand on this?
It's been a while since I've used a grading system.
The magic register.
You can register the magical powers of people who have touched it and register their magical information in the database.
Unknown creator
Magic information? Database? What's that?
I mean, unknown creator: ......
I haven't seen Elena since I first appraised her: .......
Maybe there used to be creative wizards like me.
With that thought in mind, I put my hand on the magic item.
Yes, it's all right. Well then, please fill out the form here.
Now he gave me a piece of paper.
On the paper, I wrote my name, age, and the attributes of my magic.
I chose Leo as my name.
Maybe I'll break out of my dormitory and do some adventuring for a favor.
If I openly played Leons Forster, I'd get in trouble, right?
Ten years old.
Be honest about your attributes, creation and nothing.
That's how I finished filling out the form.
I saw that the bell was finished writing, so I gathered up the paper and gave it to the lady at the reception desk.
Yes, it's okay. Leo and Belle. Your registration is complete, so I'll just ask for two silver coins for both of you.
Huh? You need money?
Well, two silver coins are not a problem .
I stopped Bell from taking out the money and pulled out two silver coins from my pocket.
That's what I said.
'Yes, sir. Now, I will give you the card that proves your guild membership. It contains the person's magic, so it can be used for identification as well.
The card I was given was white and had the name Leo written on it.
So this is how you prove you're a guild member.
I wonder if this is another one of those things created by the old creation wizards?
That's handy.
Does this make sense for two silver coins?
No, I might be getting more out of it than I am.
''And I could explain the guild to you now, is that necessary?
Just in case.
I know most of them from my grandfather, but there might be some rules that I don't know about, so I'll have to ask him just in case.
Okay. Okay, let me start off by explaining.
First, let's talk about the job. Basically, there are requests posted on the board over there.
Just pick it up and bring it to the receptionist.
Then, when you've completed your request, please report to the receptionist that it's done.
I see. ...... That board.
I looked at the wall-sized bulletin board in the guild.
There was only so much paper on the board that I could easily count.
Apparently, there aren't many requests at this time of the evening.
Well, we usually get a request in the morning, right?
Do you have any questions so far?
'Well, can I freely choose to request ......? Any restrictions or anything?
As I recall, there were ranks for adventurers, right?
Of course there are limits. So let me explain it to you.
There are five levels of adventurers.
There are five ranks, from top to bottom: S, A, B, C, and D. Leo and his friends are newcomers, so they are ranked D.
Your rank will increase as you complete your requests to a certain extent.
Also, about the request you just made, there is a sign that says 'rank' or higher for each request.
I knew we'd have ranks.
I'm gonna be an S-rank one day.
Yes, sir.
Okay, that concludes our session. Thank you for your time.
Yes, nice to meet you.
Registration was done and I didn't have any requests today, so I quickly came out of the guild.
'So we're adventurers now, too, aren't we?
I talk to Belle, who walks next to me.
'Yes, sir. I'll say it again, but never without danger, okay?
Belle replied happily, and then suddenly reminded me with a straight face.
Do you really think I'm that dangerous?
I know, I know. A little bit at a time, okay?
If you get a little stronger, Belle will be able to afford the Demon Forest in time.
''Already ....... Well then, I have dinner to prepare, so it's time to go home.
Oh, dinner's ready.
Yeah, I guess so.
I nodded and used the transference.
That was a nice way to pass the time.
SIDE: Herondas.
d*mn it ...... how did this happen!
I can't believe there are knights waiting for you outside the school: .......
Those guys, remember .
A large group of people beat me up in the sack. .......
I'm covered in scars all over my body. .......
Don't think those incompetents who can't even use magic will get away with this.
If only they could use magic, they could destroy this filthy prison in an instant and kill those guys. .......
"I'll get out and I'll get you for this. I'll come out and get you. Especially Leons Forster! You're the only one I'm going to kill.
I'm not going to let that man get away with it.
Well, that's quite a spirit, isn't it?
I've been told.
We're getting blasted off again.
"Who are you! I'm in a terrible mood right now!
In my haste, I bristled.
Oh, scary, scary. Hi.
On the other side of the bars, there's a man who looks familiar.
Red hair. And a grin on his face.
"Oh, you are!
This is Allen, my classmate from magic school.
Hey! Long time no see, Herondas. I haven't seen you since my graduation from magic school. ...... How long ago was that?
Why did you go to ......
I heard you're in the wrong gang.
Yeah? I was asked to bring you in by someone who wanted to use you. ....... What do you want to do?
What is this guy talking about?
What? Do you want to use me? Where's a guy like that!
How dare you mock me!
Herondas Beaumont...... the man who was always third among us in the Golden Age of the Empire. Well, you've never beaten me and Damien once, so even you want someone who wants it.
Oh, shut up!
You don't have to remind me of a bad past!
Oh, well, well, don't be so mad at me. Think about the situation you're in now. Maybe you're going to get killed by ......?
This guy ...... made fun of me.
'd*mn it ......, if I'm taken to that guy, will I be a slave?'
'Well? But isn't that better than dying? Besides, if you were to become a slave, wouldn't they take care of you as an asset?
Better than dying. .......
"d*mn it ...... All right . So who in the world wants me to do what?
I can't give you that. I won't tell you my client's information under any circumstances. But I'll tell you this.
What?
I'm sure you'll be given a chance to get your revenge.
Revenge? Could it be that those knights ...... and Leonce Forster can be killed?
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Allen replied with a grin .
I can't believe it, but I'm going to have to bet this ...... guy.
