After Sylvia receives her Adventurer Card, she has been briefed by Ms. Routie on how to receive requests and how to rank up.

I have received the same explanation before, so I have confirmed the recent request on a bulletin board with a request form on it.

As for Sylvia's rank, even the F-rank can serve a minimum purpose, so the rank up priority will be lower, but you should still raise it as much as possible for her self-esteem.

Nevertheless, I am not going to take the request for today.

"Oh?"

I saw it all the way through and realized that there was no request to crusade the village of Dayton.

For six months I undertook to crusade demons that would appear in the woods near the village, but I may have to leave Alistair's city for a long time, as I did this time. At that time, he decided to make a request to the guild to have other adventurers crusade him.

This time too, I have put out a crusade request and deposited my reward with my guild before going out to King's Capital, so it should have been paid from there to the requested adventurer.

"Mr. Mars!

Sylvia calls me from the counter after I've heard the explanation.

I'd like you to refrain from acting like you're attracting attention within the guild, if possible. See, the adventurers in the guild are staring at me. Me.

"Did you get the explanation?

"Yes."

"If you don't know anything, Mars, you should ask. He's a promising B-rank adventurer."

Though he appreciated his strength as a B-rank, he's like an amateur because he hasn't worked as an adventurer in less than six months.

I don't care if they ask me something too difficult.

"By the way, it looks like we don't have a crusade request for Dayton Village, how was it?

"Oh, it's about the request you made, Mars, before you went out to King's Capital. That request is rewarding despite the large number of demons to crusade and about ten, so a strong F-rank adventurer is supposed to take it and go again tomorrow."

I can't leave it alone, so I set the reward higher than any other crusade request, but it seems the money troubled adventurers ate it.

"No way, Mars. I didn't think you'd be back from Wang Du so soon, so I put this minute out as a request, but what do you want to do?

"Uh, I'm not going to imitate exactly what you're asking."

It's a request that should have been made while I wasn't in Alistair's city, but if I had told you when I was going home properly, you'd be responsible for me because this didn't happen.

"I'd appreciate it if you could say that. The adventurer who received the request also has the strength to complete the request, but he was temporarily short of money to replace his gear, so he was just fine."

Apparently, it's impeccable in strength.

If the contents of the crusade itself, there is no problem with the F-rank, so as an Alliance, it was accepted as an F-rank request. Adventurers can only receive requests for one rank above their rank, but there are no limits for receiving requests for the lower rank. Because it is normal to only have the lowest rank but also the lowest reward, no one will receive it if it is normal.

However, he took my request because he was offering an E-rank-like reward.

"So, Mars, what do you guys do?

Do you take any requests?

I guess that means, to be honest, I didn't have any requests that would attract much interest.

No, just one...

"I had a request that I was a little concerned about, what is help with night security?

Never since I became an adventurer has such a request been made.

City policing is basically carried out by knights and soldiers. I've had powerful demons show up in the neighborhood before, and I used to go on adventurers to recruit additional personnel because knights and soldiers aren't enough to fight, is that the same thing?

"The thing is, we're not adequately staffed, just like we were when we crusaded the demons, so we're talking about temporarily recruiting from adventurers."

"What happened?

The city of Alistair should have had all its power.

It is possible that something is happening so much that it has to rely on the adventurer.

"Mars, I know you don't know because it seems like you've been going to Wang Du, but a week or so ago, at night, Tsukuba began to appear."

"Tsukuba?"

"We've already sacrificed five men."

Tsukuba - People who had nothing to do with the city had been slaughtered and murdered.

When asked, the first victim was a carpenter who had forgotten his hammer at the construction site and rushed out at night, but on his way home he encountered a tsubaki and became a person who would not return.

The second victim was a housewife who hung out in the neighborhood to hem dinner and was killed by Tsukuba without getting home after being delivered to the neighborhood.

The third was also attacked on his way home drunk in a liquor store.

Two knights were sacrificed when the Knights, who took matters seriously at the time of the murder of the third man, stepped up their night vigilance and increased their personnel.

Because the victim had no connection whatsoever, he decided that the killer was slaughtering and killing people for pleasure.

I haven't heard that from my brother, but he probably dared lay low on information thinking about keeping me out of it. Although, I'm not going to get involved either.

"Are night guards prepared for the Tsukuba?

"That's right. Somehow, it seems that Tsukuba only shows up at night, so he also wants to recruit personnel from adventurers to counteract it. I'd like you to help me with this request if you're back."

I have a family in the city, and I can help you solve it quickly...

"I'll think about it"

"Please"

Night security will be handled in pairs if it's the same as the soldiers.

If I take it alone, someone will improvise with the other adventurers and hit the guard. To be honest, it's quite a hassle.

"I'll help you if you ask me."

Sylvia says this to me, but I can't ask you to help me with this request, Raw Hate.

"With regard to this request, it is expected that you will have considerable skill in Tsukuba because you are killing even knights, so you cannot accept it unless you are at least an adventurer of D-rank or higher."

Sylvia has just become an adventurer, an F-rank adventurer.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard you try, it's impossible to get up to D-rank in a day or two.

That's why I'm the only one who can participate in security. In that case, you have to work with someone who doesn't know the circumstances, so you have to capture Tsugatsu while hiding the hand tag. I don't want such a dangerous imitation of someone whose strength is unknown.

No, do you have a hand in letting me work with my brother, who is a knight?

"So, what do you do about the request?

"I decided not to take it this time"

My biggest purpose today is to register as an adventurer, and I don't intend to take the request from the beginning.

"Maybe you're going to the labyrinth?

"That's right. It's the quickest way to register an adventurer."

"I kind of remember when you first came to the guild, Mars."

I became an adventurer to challenge the labyrinth, too.

Think about it, I can also say that it all started then.

"Um, what do you mean...?

Put down Sylvia who doesn't know what's going on and receive five gold coins, the reward for the delivery request. Five gold coins in ten days? It's a request from a nobleman, so is it because my sense of money is going crazy because of the chest (treasure box)?

I never even had gold coins back in the day, and if I did, I would have graduated worried about how to store them.

I've come a long way.

Anyway, me and Sylvia are both Adventurer Guilds. Now that we're done what we should be doing, we'll be behind Adventurer Guilds.

"So, what are you going to do now? Earlier, you said something about being an adventurer to get to the labyrinth."

I also understand Sylvia's doubts.

We have a metastasis so we can get into the labyrinth easily.

However, there are a lot of fences.
