The next day, as I headed to the Adventurer's Guild after finishing my morning routine, I was stopped by the receptionist.
"Mr Eberhard, may I speak with you?"
“When I work as an adventurer, you can call me Hal. You don't even need to call me master."
If the adventurers in the area knew of my identity, my life as an adventurer would be very difficult. They will look at me as if adventure is my hobby.
“Yes, I understand, Hal”
“So what's the problem?”
I looked at her and asked her to stop using honorifics, and the receptionist finally started talking to me in an informal way.
"Didn't you beat the horde of goblins yesterday?"
"Yes, that's what I did. Is that the wrong thing?”
I don't think there's anything wrong with that, goblins, because they are harmless monsters that should be killed as soon as possible.
“No, it's not a problem. In fact, quite the opposite, since you have completed several E rank requests, your rank has been raised from F to E. Congratulations.”
"Wow! I'm glad to hear that. That's great.I thought I'd raise my rank again today."
It seems my adventurer ranking has been raised. Well, I guess it's only natural to have defeated so many goblins.
"You're not used to being an adventurer. So beware”
"Yes, I'll do it"
"Not to get hurt."
“This is your guild card, then. I have updated your rating and account balance information.”
"thank you. I'll check that request as soon as possible.”
Now that I am E rank, I can accept the request for D rank, which is considered a full-fledged adventurer. A D rating is more dangerous, but it also makes more money. People who are unable to reach the D rank (which is the majority of people in the world) should look for something else to do rather than being an adventurer. But, if you can reach D rank or higher, you can make more money as an adventurer.
I am still an E-rank adventurer, but even E-rank adventurers can accept a D-rank request, and because I am only six years old and have a promising future, I will definitely become a D-rank adventurer in the near future. In the future, I will be the heir to the Northern General, but in my youth I still want to be a successful person.
“Oh, ....., I like this one.”
It's past noon. Adventurers come early in the morning, so there are no requests left on the request board except for the usual requests, but there is one that looks good.
“Regular investigation into Lantern Ruins.
“Rublow Lantern. The Ruins of Lanterns, located in a forest about 20 kilometers north of Heitburg, are the ruins of an ancient magical civilization. ……. Academic research has been done and it is not very important, but in order to preserve the ruins, adventurers are sent to investigate periodically to see if there are any abnormalities. Deadline: one week. Prize: 50,000 ells. …… So so it is.
“OK, I've decided. I'll take this one.”
I took the paper and took it to the reception desk.
"Oh, you took this?"
"Yes. . It'll be easier."
“Agot far. Are you going to be okay?”
“Ya, just relax.”
“..... Well, if you say so, Hal, I will not stop you. I will receive.”
The receptionist who received the paper filled out a request form with my adventurer ID, name, and receptionist signature. It's a fantasy world, if you're going to think they have some sort of magical management system, but it doesn't seem like it.
"OKAY. There goes. The achievement deadline is one week, so I suggest you just relax. Also, this, please.”
Then the receptionist gave me a thin booklet.
"What is this?""
“It contains the exact location of the ruins, investigation methods and investigation items for this request.I'm sure you will find all the details in it, so can you read it before leaving?
“Hmm, analog is analog, but systematic yes....?”
"What?"
“No, it's okay. Thank you, I'll read it."
"Hopefully make it to the destination."
"OKAY.
The receptionist escorted me away and I left the guild. This time, I will drive the wagon again.
I could hold it in because I was tied to this wagon, but I wasn't sure I wanted to pull it every time I traveled far. It would be easier if there is some kind of item box like in fantasy novels in general.
There were some items that looked like that, but they were so expensive that only nobles, nobles, merchants, and the military could own them.
Funny, I think I'm one of those people …….
Well, to be an adventurer, it's my hobby. As long as I can do whatever I want, I want to do it myself without relying on my parents. Besides, even if I can't get it now, I feel that I will get it next time. It's weird that I can't help feeling that way when I see Mei.
