High Load Training with the Cursed Devil's Sword!? - The Masked Adventurer Who Should Not Be Known - [Web Version]
[Episode 5: Primary Adventurer]
I was lying on my back at the training ground, hands wide open, feet thrown out and down.
(Is this the strength of a second-degree adventurer... it was no match at all)
"What? Do you still regret hearing my rank?
Mr. Nevan was still a high-ranking adventurer.
"Even a B-rank secondary adventurer didn't have a hand or a leg."
For seven years, I used this demon sword on my hips, and it was the death that drove me crazy to work out.
By the time I was 13 the fifth year after I had the sword in my hand, I surpassed the teacher who had taught me kingdom style swordsmanship with his strength.
But I've obviously been stretching for the past year.
Sword arms and technology are still stretched, but my body doesn't follow that movement.
Even though Mr. Nevan's sword muscle was visible today, there were many times when he could not respond in time.
"Well, don't say that. You're overwhelmingly stronger than me when I was about Tris. Plus, I can afford to pass."
"Huh? What is passing?
"I don't know about you... although it would be a mock fight to determine whether to give an Adventurer apprenticeship exemption in the first place"
Yes, it was.
The simulation was fun and totally out of my mind.
"Hehe. Mr. Tris, it's an amazing thing. There have been a few exemptions in the last few years, but none of them have been exempted except wizards in the qualification exams as soon as they've grown up."
"What, you mean...?
"Of course you pass! Congratulations. Mr. Tris is an elementary adventurer today!
Mr. Ridley's words, "I'm an elementary adventurer from today on," were repeated over and over in my head.
Ever since I got my mind on it, I've just been dreaming about being an adventurer.
At the same time that I think the dream came true, when it finally started, nature and laughter spilled.
"Oh, but after this, after hearing proper beginner's understanding and explanation of the terms and conditions!
"Right. Finally, now..."
"Hey. Boy, are you listening ~? Hey..."
After this, I was supposed to hear the explanation in a little sermon, but I finally took my first step as an adventurer.
The next day, after a routine morning workout, I decided to head to the Adventurer's Guild as soon as I enjoyed the delicious breakfast of The Journey Door Pavilion.
"Well, Aunt Bata. I'm coming."
"Aye. You're gonna keep it a no-hassle request at first, aren't you?
I was just reminded yesterday of my current strength enough.
I don't stretch out and take impossible requests (quests).
"I know. I'll make it a simple crusade request, it'll be fine."
"Suddenly a crusade request... I wonder if you really know. You have to be really careful. And take this."
Aunt Bata, smiling a little bitterly, gave me some kind of wrap.
"What's this?
"It's a celebration of being an adventurer. Eat at lunch."
The contents are like white bread pinched with meat and vegetables.
"Thanks! I'll feed you for lunch!
Saying so and accepting it, I headed to the Adventurer's Guild.
Normally, there's water, firestones, etc., but I can magically substitute for those things, so I'm pretty light.
For daytime requests, luggage can be handled with one thin leather backpack that won't interfere with the operation.
Well, if it's true, I'd like a magic bag with the effect of expanding capacity, but that's the price I can't afford without making as much money as Mr. Nevan, a second-degree adventurer.
It is, of course, one of our future target gear.
Along the way, I will buy a first aid set containing portable preserved food and ponchos, bandages and wound medicines at a grocery store for adventurers near the guild.
I've also seen leather armor for junior adventurers. I want it (...), but I put up with it because my brothers gave me combat clothes with blade protection.
I wanted to take a look at some more things and got my back hair ripped off, but I managed to walk through the Adventurer Alliance door without wasting it.
"Hi Tris. You just came to take a request."
It is a small guild, so there are only three contact points.
I just got to the crowded hours in the morning, so I got in line for the adventurer without knowing who was receptionist, but it just so happened to be at Mr. Ridley's desk.
"Thank you, Mr. Ridley, from today on"
"Yes. Nice to meet you. So... the fact that you're here at this hour, you just got a request, didn't you?
In addition to receiving requests, this reception also accepts applications for the use of training areas and meeting spaces.
Other than that, I also accept quest issuance such as escorts from merchants and material collection at this desk, which is irrelevant now because it is only accepted in the afternoon.
"Of course I'm here to take your request. Please ask for an affordable crusade."
The request is also sticking out on the request board next to the co-located liquor store, but this one is in the form of many things for parties, and if you take it personally, you will be introduced to what was in strength at the reception.
Well, if you're going to take it at a party, they're going to dismiss it if you're not on your strengths.
"Mm-hmm. I knew you wanted to get a crusade request. I really just want you to do a few requests such as collecting materials, go through all kinds of requests, and then get a crusade request..."
Even when it comes to material collection, besides requests such as herb collection, it also includes requests for hunting pigs and so on, so I guess you want me to practice with that.
But I was a nobleman too, so I've been through it many times if I'm hunting.
I explained the area lightly......
"Huh!? Is Mr. Tris your lord's son?!?
"Right. But I'm not a nobleman anymore because I'm three men and I've grown up and left the house."
After a few words, Mr. Ridley said he had just moved to the city three months ago from the other guild branches.
Well, but I only call myself "Tris," so even the people in this city might not have noticed.
"Well, that's why I've hunted animals many times, so why don't you let me take the demon crusade request?"
In this world, if you step outside the city, you have the possibility to meet demons.
According to the definition of demons learned in the classroom, "the temper that overflows from different worlds mimics and materializes the form of creatures in this world".
In adventurous terms, it is a monster that suddenly emerges after gathering together and strikes creatures indiscriminately. When defeated, it drops the 'Qi Nucleus' and disappears again.
"Mm-hmm... you don't have a choice. I'm exempt from apprenticeship, so I'm eligible for a demon crusade request."
That's what I said, Mr. Ridley, who will probably turn over the written material for the crusade request.
"So why don't we ask for a request for this horn rat crusade?
Thus, my first request (quest) was decided on the "Horn Rat Crusade".
