In the morning, Ray finishes his mock battle as an early morning training as usual, leaving the marina's house when he finishes his breakfast.

"So it's three days later to come back...... no, considering the time to come and go, does it take a little longer? That's about it."

Alongside Seto, he tells that to the faces of Elaine, Marina, Vihera, Ara, Büne, Nielsen and Yellow, who came to drop him off.

There is no such thing as grandeur in that tone.

I'm somewhat nervous, but if I try to lay it, it's the Devil's Forest I'm going to... in a way, where I was born today.

Of course, it is confirmed that there are multiple Rank A monsters in the Devil's Forest.

On the contrary, there was even eyewitness testimony of Rank S monsters.

Nevertheless, that was quite a long time ago, and whether there is still a Rank S monster in the Devil's Forest at this time is a subtle thing.

(Rank S monster? If I were there, it would be life-threatening, but the profits from it would be pretty big)

Demonic stones, of course, but materials that can be used for magic items or, above all, meat.

In this Elgin, the meat of a monster tastes so good that it is basically a high ranking monster.

It's only basic, and there's a monster that doesn't have to be that high in rank like an oak to have delicious meat.

"Okay. Okay, be careful."

Sent out by Elaine's voice, Ray heads to the guild.

Not as early in the morning as..., about 9: 00 am.

Naturally, it wasn't a strange time to go to work anymore, other than Elaine and Arla, but today I have a promotion exam for Ray, so I had to say a little bit of impossibility to slow down my time to get to work.

Nevertheless, it is the Trent Forest that Vihella and Büne and Nielsen head to, and time is not stuffed with feathers.

It was a marina working at the clinic, but it wasn't until close to noon that the clinic got busy, and not that busy in the morning.

In that sense, it wasn't meant to be fatal somewhat late.

Although that was only the usual story, there was also the possibility of a sudden accident or something and an injured person appeared.

Nevertheless, it was also predictable to Ray that if that happened, he would be hitting his hand to some extent to do something about it, beyond referring to a marina that would do nothing.

"Whatever, even the promotion exams that take place in the Devil's Forest, nervousness and inability to show strength is the worst thing that can happen. Is it easier than it is?"

"Gru."

To Ray's words, Seto rattles his throat as he agrees.

With Ray and Seto walking like that, some of them speak up lightly.

It's still morning, so I guess many of those who work are just getting started and busy. As always, no one wants to play with Seto.

Most of the time, that's why Ray took the promotion exam today.

If you imitate that you are going to take the promotion exam but you are forced to take time, if that is why Ray is late and can't take the promotion exam... and so on, then there will be no future for that person.

At least, those who were betting on Ray's passing are certain to resent the fact that the bet was wasted.

Some people look forward to passing the promotion exam, even if they are not taking part in the bet, Ray, who is famous as an adventurer of the guild for living in the guild.

Also, the scariest of all would be the face of Seto enthusiasts.

Seto enthusiasts often have complex feelings about Ray because of Seto's master.

The jealousy that Ray is the only one who has Seto to himself or the gratitude that Ray can play with Seto because he taemed me. Other than that, there are people with various emotions, but what we all still have in common is that they adore Seto.

And I naturally know Seto loves Ray, and if Ray fails the promotion exam, then Seto will naturally grieve.

When it comes to Seto grieving, naturally, but not acceptable for Seto enthusiasts.

In order not to be targeted by such faces, no one does things like hold Ray or Seto back.

Just encourage everyone to speak up lightly and do their best promotion exams.

Some of them wanted me to pass for their bets.

Ray proceeds with such an exchange and eventually arrives at the guild.

I've already had too much of my busiest time, but I still have a lot of adventurers in and around my guild.

Of those who work in the augmentation works, those who do simple work have temporary guild outposts near more places where they work, so that's where we deal with them, but still this many people gather in the guild.

(Can't you even move when you get here early in the morning? It feels exactly like sushi stuffing)

With that in mind, Seto has me moved to my usual place, and Ray enters the guild.

Naturally, sometimes it's not always the time Ray comes, and some people were surprised to see Ray and Seto, but Ray is used to being surprised that way, so he enters the guild without looking particularly concerned.

"Mr. Ray, this way!

In the presence of a large number of adventurers, Ray was called by Lenora the moment he entered the guild to see how the hell he found Ray's presence.

Next to Lenora like that, Kenny looks resentful and turns a blind eye to Lenora and returns to the adventurer's opponent.

There was an adventurer before Lenora as well, but as soon as Lenora calls Ray's name, an Alliance official comes from the counter and deals with the adventurer on Lenora's behalf.

... The adventurer seemed dissatisfied that the cute Lenora was dealing with him on behalf of a man who looked serious for some reason, but still has nothing to say about his dissatisfaction.

You understand that if you imitate the noise here, you will be resented by other adventurers waiting in order.

That's why the adventurer doesn't complain about the guild clerk's man, and asks him to handle the request personally.

"Mr. Ray, upstairs, please. I'll call the Alliance Master soon."

"Upstairs? Even upstairs, wasn't the guild clerk doing his job now?

"There's something about Mr. Ray's promotion exam, so I hurried to clean it up.... It was tough."

If you look at Lenora, who tells you she's smudged, you can also predict to Ray that that would have been really hard, not just words.

But there's no reason for Ray to say anything about it, only to whine.

If you just said that, didn't you have to come all the way out of the counter? I didn't think so, but when I went into that area now, I wasn't going to complain about you coming out this far at the corner.

"Okay. Then I'll wait for the workers upstairs."

When Lenora asks where the room is, Ray goes up the stairs.

From multiple rooms upstairs, you can hear guild officials doing their jobs.

You can also hear screaming voices inside, which is subtly creepy to Ray.

Perhaps Ray can predict that's all the people who work upstairs are being pushed.

(If you're that busy, temporary hiring...... won't be able to work where you hire them, and then you can rent people from guilds in other cities and villages, or something like that?

It was Ray who thinks that way, but in fact that has already been done, and many of those upstairs can be personnel who have borrowed temporarily from other guilds.

It was the current situation in the Guild that brought people together but as many jobs existed and there was no way of disappearing at all.

Anyway, the only city on the perimeter - more or less than a city, to be exact - was there.

There is also a lot of work to be done because of the construction of such places.

Also, this one hasn't moved that far on a massive scale yet, but we also need to make things like growing spices by the greens and manufacturing plants for ground ships.

Given the circumstances around it, when the hell will that be the day when Alliance officials will be less busy?

(I'm pretty sure it'll be easier in the winter though)

The construction of the addition begins at the beginning of spring, with the end of winter… precisely the end of autumn.

The season in between will mean not busy days for guild officials either.

Most importantly, even during the winter months, adventurers who were unable to save enough money to break down the Giganto Turtle prepared by Ray or otherwise just go over the winter need to do their job, so not if the Alliance staff is completely free.

Still, it would be closer to heaven than the days you deserve to call yourself the Death March you're doing right now.

(For the Alliance, officials matter. Given that, it's true that things are tough right now... but there's no reason to do something like do something about the Alliance in this situation right now)

If this situation prevents the guild from moving much, the construction of the guild itself could be paralysed.

With that in mind, the current guild would be pretty tough, but I still needed you to work hard.

"So, a promotion exam at a time like this?... The workers have taken on a lot of requests from Dusker."

Whimpering, entering the room instructed by Lenora, there is one man in that room who opens his mouth to see if he heard Ray whimpering.

"I guess this is why the Alliance Master took Ray's promotion exam, too, because of this situation right now. It's not a normal exam, it's a lame exam to do in the Devil's Forest."

The man who has said that understands that Ray is a man with arms at a glance.

Men of such ages as the late twenties and early thirties.

I could understand that the fact that only one of the men was in the room meant that this person would be a Rank A adventurer who would lead him into the Devil's Forest.

"You?

Ray has lived in the Guild for quite a while too, but the man in front of him was the first face I've ever seen.

Of course, Ray doesn't fully know the faces of all the adventurers in the Guild either.

At the same time that Gilm on the edge is a difficult place to reach, just because you arrive in Gilm doesn't mean everyone can be active enough in Gilm.

Some people fall into Slam Street more than it is difficult to get a request that is in the Guild, and others are forced to get a request because they came to the Guild, and as a result, things like being killed by monsters.

In this sense, many adventurers who come to the Guild die one after the other.

That's why Ray can't imitate anything like remembering all the adventurers either.

In addition, some adventurers have different personalities.

For example, I only take on requests to crusade monsters that appear at night, etc.

The man nods and opens his mouth to Ray, who also thinks that the adventurer in front of him may be the bearer of such a special character.

"Oh. It's Zakat I'm going to show Ray to the Devil's Forest this time. Rank A Adventurer, but an ordinary adventurer with no aliases."

"What do I say with an alias, but more adventurers with no alias, right? Besides, I don't think I'd call a Rank A Adventurer a regular adventurer at the moment."

Ray's words are never daunting.

The vast majority of adventurers will be headed in rank C or D, known as middle-sized or veteran.

You can cross the wall to Rank B by 30% on the whole adventurer...... no matter how many quotes you make, you won't get to 40%. Or even the possibility of 20%.

In that, even higher rank A would not reach even 10% of the total. … It is the guilds of the border that bring together many Rank A adventurers who do not reach 10% of them.

Either way, it would be impossible to call a rank A adventurer less than 10% of the entire adventurer an ordinary adventurer.

"If you're going to say that, it wouldn't be normal for Ray to be a Rank B adventurer and already have an alias, demon a Griffon equal to Rank S, and have a valuable magic item called what an item box is. Rank fraud is a good place."

In some cases, I couldn't say it back when they called it rank fraud, just Ray, who has just the strength to fight against a country.
