"Hey, guys, do something!"

"No, even if you say," I can do something about it... "

The old man in charge of the buyout yelled at the guildmaster and looked puzzled.

“Whatever it is, there are too many deliveries of horn rabbits, oaks, augers, and medicinal herbs!

I appreciate the thinning of more monsters, but the price of meat, fur, and other ingredients is falling!

Even if the value drops, the amount handled is increasing, so it's not a problem for the Alliance's profit, but it's not just for the dismantling yard people whose paychecks don't change, but their workloads have increased dramatically.

... but still, the people in the dismantling yard aren't losing their income yet.

However, as monster materials and collectibles have collapsed in value, the earnings of hunters below mid-level have been drastically reduced!

Even though there are a lot of people who quit hunters, what should we do, huh? What should I do! "

"Ugh..."

I was faintly aware of it.

However, I can't say 'Don't do any more work this week because it's too much to catch' to a talented party of beautiful girls who come all the way from a distant country and have a large storage capacity. There's life going on over there, and the guild doesn't have the authority to give orders to hunters like that.

"That's not the only problem." If you continue this unusual hunting method, the number of monsters that will be hunted will be higher than the number of horny rabbits, and the number of individuals around here will be reduced.

if that happens.... "

What if that happens?

"If the number of prey drops below a certain amount and they make less money, they will move to other areas."

And what's left is the Hunter Guild Branch, where many hunters are out of business and only a few are left because their earnings have fallen sharply before that. and..... "

Is it still there?

I've heard enough 'bad stories'.

And yet, to the old man in charge of buying and selling, the guildmaster with an unpleasant face.

"Without them, the number of monsters will start to increase."

There are only a few hunters left, around this town.... "

……

…………

………………

What should I do!

Yelling, Guildmaster.

"No, that's my line!!"

And yelling back, the old man in charge of the buyout.

…………

"Raise your rank...."

Huh?

In the words of the old man in charge of the buyout, the guildmaster with a gentle face.

"Raise the ranks, those guys!"

They bring in a lot of prey and harvest every day because they are rank F, the lowest rank they have as hunters.

At rank F, I usually only get requests for medicinal herbs or horny rabbit hunting.

I don't think people who know their skills can take on such a job!

That's why I don't usually accept requests, but I do constant requests for meat and ingredients!

I'll raise their ranks, hunt for escorts, and take on impossible (mission impotent) assignments of higher difficulty, and younger guys will jump over there. ”

Ah, to the point that it's getting worse!

"Not so much, you idiot!" That's why you should think about it and consider it at the meeting! Eh? "

"... sorry... I'm going to take the blame."

"So Gilmouth is quite risky, but do you intend to use A-3 of the Gilmouth Authority Special Measures, 'Exercise of Gilmouth Authority in Cases involving Many Human Lives'?" If that's the case, you can raise the F-rank to D-rank with two ranks, right? "

In response to the old man in charge of the buyout, Gilmouth shook his head to the side.

"No, I intend to use special measure A-2 to make a three-rank special advance to rank C at once."

If it is rank D, there will be a limited number of requests that they alone can accept orders. I don't hire guards or other merchants who don't know them well, so I don't think the merchants from other towns should do it first. That's why I'll raise it to the C-rank at once. "

"...... Special measure A-2 would be 'Authority allowed to activate in the event of a crisis involving the survival of the town'!"

If you do such a thing, and it is judged to be inappropriate at the Gilmouth Conference in the Royal Capital, your position is..... "

Gilmouth smiled slightly at the words.

"I'm an idiot, but I'm going to do my duty as Gilmouth..."

"Oh, you...."

Later, this judgment was praised at the Gilmuth meeting in the capital, and the two of them had no reason to know that the Gilmuth rank would rise.

This is not strange.

If anyone acts with the intention of losing everything in order to protect the city, he will be punished.

Thereafter, Gilmour's willingness to risk his own lives to act for the city was drastically reduced.

This was only a matter of praise, even in the eyes of the people.

If that is also a logically correct act, and no one has lost anything, especially...



Huh! Are we being promoted?

We did it! It was worth the effort to hunt down lots of monsters and mine materials!

It's as planned!

And to everyone's voice, a mile of nodding.

"This is finally the E-rank." If you work harder and reach D rank, you can receive Crusade Requests, even if they are limited, and if you work with other parties, you will not be able to receive Escort Requests!

Along with that, we'll continue to deliver more and more materials..... "

"It's a happy mile..."

(Hunting and material extraction is the best way to survive!!)

Gilmouth, who called the [Red Oath] to his room to convey his ascension, was poisoned in his heart.

And......

No, it's not E-rank that gets promoted, it's C-rank.

"" "" Yeah!!! ""

"Four of them were stunned by Gilmouth's words..."

(Is that a melasoma, a mela, something like that?)

As always, Miles was thinking something he didn't understand.

"No, no, no, no, no, no!"

"S-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-

"Nh, nnh, something's going on..."

"I-I-I-I-It's a trap!" It must be!! "

Although it was a "red oath" that acted as a C-rank hunter and later became an S-rank, even though it was a C-rank with some experience, I was surprised and upset that it was actually a three-rank extraordinary advance.

The skip system is still good. It is a system that mainly targets retired former hunters, soldiers, mercenaries, lost former court magicians, and the "very strong ones", where "gifted newcomers" are put on a toilet.

Therefore, even if you are suddenly registered with D-C rank, it is not strange.

... but there is no skipping system. Here, the teenage female party, including minors, suddenly has no third rank just because it showed a little bit of anti-personnel fighting ability.

Even though I was aiming for an early promotion, it wasn't surprising that everyone doubted it.

"... what the hell are you up to!"

"I can't believe it's forcing you to go up to the rank of C, target the emergency call of the guild, and ask for dangerous appointments that local hunters don't want to do..."

"" That's it!! ""

"Noooo!! You're hunting too much, so the buying-in price for monsters and harvests crashes, making the lives of other hunters harder! So, in order to get you guys to do work other than hunting and material gathering, I fired you and activated my power, and applied special measures, and these fucking kids ahhhh!!"
