"Congratulations on your A-rank promotion, Mr. Rex"

That was a few days after we got back from Togai town.

When Liliera's training asked her to buy material for the demons she crusaded in the woods, she received a reward for the purchase, and the receptionist pronounced her rank up.

"You did it, Mr. Rex!

Mr. Liliera is as happy as I am.

"Er... thank you"

"Oh, my God, you've been so calm."

Um, even if they say so.

"Honestly, I don't really feel it. I've only been an adventurer for a month or so, and I can't believe I've been promoted to A-rank."

"Uh, well, right. It usually takes years to rank up."

"In how many months did Mr. Liliera get a B-rank?

I ask Liliera a question, wondering how much other people usually rank up.

"For months, the numbers are already crazy. I became an E-rank in the first month. F to E is whatever it takes, because it's something anyone can be if they keep making successful requests. It just took you three months to get to D from there. So the C-rank is more than six months old, and it's only recently that it's B-ranked."

"Heh, that's a lot of stuff."

"Yes, it usually takes more...!

"Hihayi Yes"

Why are you pulling my mouth?

"Precisely, Mr. Liliera, but he's pretty quick."

and that's where the receptionist joins the conversation.

"Really?

"Yeah, normal people take around six months to a year to get from E to D-rank. And to get up from the D-rank comes out with or without talent, so the average is between one and two years, and in some cases three and four years. B-rank is hard work, but it takes years."

"Oh, yeah."

What does Mr. Liliera do in surprise?

"We believe enthusiasm is important to increase the rank of Adventurer."

"Enthusiasm?"

"Yeah, people who think it's good to make enough money to live even if they have talent can stay around C rank, and if they don't have talent but have some strong purpose, they can gain strength close to A rank if they are enthusiastic. The length of the period in which the rank rises also varies greatly due to the difference in enthusiasm"

"" To the extent that "

"So in Liliera's case, not only because of her original talent, but also because of the reason to save her mother and the people in her hometown, she was able to rank up many times faster than the average person."

"It tickles me when people say that."

Mr. Liliera blushes and mojis in embarrassment.

Lilliera who can illuminate is cute, too.

"Cue."

And for some reason, Moffmoff is mozzled over Mr. Liliera.

Are you playing imitation?

"How unhesitatingly do you jump into dangerous work after that?"

"Is it a dangerous job?

"Yeah, dangerous work not only pays off well, it also greatly affects the rank assessment of your guild. So it's easy to rank people who take the lead in dangerous work."

Well, there are a lot of conditions for ranking up.

"It's just..."

And that's where the receptionist looks at this one that's hard to say.

"Just?"

"… but there are people in the world who jump over those efforts and enthusiasm lightly with such talent that there is nothing they can do."

Uh, he's here, isn't he? People who are desperate and hard at work but jump over it lightly.

"I get it. Wow, I get it."

"Cuun."

Ms Liliera and Mohmov are also nodding in agreement.

"Right. They're talented people. Oh, that's irrational."

"" "" "" Don't you say!! "" ""

"Yes!?"

Why is everyone scratching at me?

Oh, boy.

"Not at all."

I'm sitting back in my chair with a neat face all the time I've been telling you why.

I feel kind of unreasonable.

"Uh, anyway, congratulations on your A-rank promotion."

The receptionist celebrated the ranking up again.

"Thank you"

Yeah, right. Now let's be glad we've honestly ranked up.

"Shall we eat something delicious to celebrate the Rank Up?"

"Fine. Of course it's Lex's luxury."

"Cu!"

"Oh, that? Isn't that my celebration?

"Haha, just kidding! Come on, let's go!

and is pulled by Mr. Liliera and taken to a liquor store in the guild.

Well, it's good to have someone to celebrate, isn't it?

I couldn't taste this as a solo trip. I guess it's fun.

"Well, celebrate Mr. Rex's A-rank promotion, kappa!

"" "Kampa Yikes!!" "

In conjunction with Liliera's voice, we toast.

Yeah, us?

"No, I'm not!

"Yes, it is a great pleasure to have a new A-rank in our guild."

If you look closely, there are two familiar people sitting on the left and right.

"Mr. Milisha to Mr. Ivan!?"

"Whoa! A-rank promotion!

"Congratulations on your A-rank promotion, Mr. Rex."

Yes, at some point the two of us were at the same table.

"Uh, thank you?

"Look, well, drink it."

Mr. Ivan pours liquor into the glass while it's good.

"Oh, duh, thank you."

"Nevertheless, I don't know if Rookie is an A-rank anymore, having just come the other day. It's stuck."

"Right. I never imagined I'd go down the street to the Demon Forest and crusade to S-rank demons."

And Mr. Ivan and Mr. Milisha flatter me.

"We both praise you too much. I was just a normal adventurer."

"Normal."

"Is it normal"

and suddenly the eyes of Mr. Ivan and Mr. Milisha change.

"Do something terrible like this. That's not normal."

"Where the hell is it normal?

They stare at me like licks. [M]

"Hey, Rex."

"Who the hell are you?

Huh? I don't care who they say... what should I answer?

It would be better not to say that you are just a reincarnator...

"Yes, that's it for both of us! This is no longer an adventurer's manners violation."

And it was Mr. Liliera who broke in there.

"Adventurers, it's the rule not to step into the past, isn't it?

When Giroli and Liliera stare, they look away like scolded children.

That's not what A-rank Adventurers and Assistant Alliance Leaders do.

"Huh? Was Mr. Ivan an an A-rank?

"Oh, didn't you know, Mr. Rex?

Yeah, 'cause I never heard of Mr. Ivan's adventurer rank.

"Uh, no, you didn't say that. Well, if we're going into the woods anyway, we all know it's above B-rank. A and B are very different."

"As a guild, it makes a big difference."

"haha"

With a slight laugh, Mr. Ivan stirs up alcohol in a good mood.

"Or what, are you going to talk about it?

"" Gikri ""

Oh, was the current conversation trying to get out of the way?

It's an adult way of doing it.

"Speaking of which, I wanted to ask you something."

"Do you have a lover for me?

"Huh!? Yes, you don't!

"Oh, too bad."

Surprised. What do you suddenly say?

Well, I think Mr. Milisha is beautiful, like an adult woman.

"So, what do you want to hear?

"Yes, it's an auction for an enchanted plant, when does it start?

Yes, what I wanted to know was what happened to the enchant plant that you auctioned off.

Now that I'm in a state where I keep staying in this town because of my listing, I can't go on a journey until the problem is over.

"I was wondering if that would take a while longer. The auction won't be held unless some product is gathered, and they all spent quite a bit of money on the last dragon listing, so I was wondering if we need to wait at least another month."

"A month!? Does it still take that long?!?"

"Oh, is there a problem?

"Uh..."

I'll tell them that it's time to move to another town and explain that I've been waiting for the auction at the enchant plant to end.

"So much so, was it? It's certainly an unnatural story to stay in one place more than Mr. Rex. It's natural to wish to go to a new land."

That's right. So if it's going to take so long, I think I should stop taking the auction.

"If that's the case, why don't you go to Wang Du?

"To the king's capital? Why is that?

I put my neck to Mirisha's suggestion. [M] I wonder why the King's Capital leaves there.

"That's right, because the auction venue is in King's Capital. Items listed via our guild are transported to the auction venue in Wangdu, where the bidding begins. So why not have an adventure in the King's Capital until the auction starts?"

Speaking of which, I thought you said you were going to show up in Wang Du when you sold the Green Dragon.

"If Mr. Rex and the others are looking for a new adventure, Wang Du is a great stage. It's the heart of our country, so the quality and number of requests are out of step."

When they say that, I'm kind of excited.

I send my gaze to Liliera.

We can't just go to a party right now, because it's just me. [M]

"I will accompany you to repay you, so just follow where you want to go."

"But if Mr. Liliera has somewhere she wants to go, you can tell me, right?

"You don't have one at the moment. I couldn't afford to think about anything else because I was looking for a cure for Alza's disease."

"Then I would recommend the King's Capital to Mr. Liliera as well. It's the heart of the country, so there's lots of beautiful clothes and accessories."

"... well, isn't that good?

Yeah, I think I'm willing to go.

I knew it was the best place I wanted to go rather than someone telling me to take you.

"Then the next destination will be decided in the King's Capital!

"Ooh!

"Cuoo!"

"Okay, here's to Lex's new journey!

Mr. Ivan puts up his cup in a good mood.

"What, doesn't Mr. Ivan just want to make a scene?

"Don't even say that! haha!

Thus, when we decided on our destination, we made a scene late at night as a pre-departure economy.

"Then let's go!

"Yes."

"Cu!"

The next morning, we packed our bags and we met at the entrance to town.

Because Mr. Milisha said he wanted to give you something before he left.

"This letter says something about the auction, so please submit this to the guild of the King's Capital. That way the auction wins will be paid in the other guild."

Milisha gave me a letter to drop me off. [M]

Because I had this ready to go?

"I'm sorry I bothered"

"No, because this is also my job. You two are well. If you stop by again, stop by this town."

"Yeah, be sure then!

After a brief greeting, I tried to hug Mr. Liliera and Moffmoff, but for some reason they both fall back.

"Uh, I can't fly without a hug"

"That's the thing, though it's an adventure in the corner, I don't think flying away in the sky has the flair!

"Cu!"

Moffmoff too. Yeah. Nod and I agree with Mr. Liliera.

"So what do you do?

When I ask you a question, you two? makes a fuzzy laugh.

"Here it is!

That said, Mr. Liliera sticks out a piece of paper.

"Is this... a request for an escort?

"Yes, it's a request to escort you to Wang Du. At the request of the Joint Merchant Corps by several merchants, the number of adventurers participating together is relatively safe. Well, the request rank is low for that matter and the rewards are low, but if you're traveling down the street, traveling with the merchant corps is the basics in the basics!

As it turns out, even on the adventures of the Great Swordsman Rygaard, Rygaard's exorcism of demons and bandits while escorting the merchants is a common story.

"Exactly, Mr. Liliera! Surely a request for an escort is mandatory if you are an adventurer!

"Exactly! You've already received your request, so go to your client!

"Yeah, I get it!

That's Mr. Liliera! I can't believe I read that far and already got the request.

All right, good luck with the escort.

"Okay!

"Yokku!"

And, for some reason, Mr. Liliera and Moffmoff were gut-posing beside each other.

We're both motivated.

"No, I wasn't. I was lucky to get a favor from an A-rank adventurer."

When we joined the merchants of our client, we immediately went out to the streets and headed to Wangdu.

And along the way, the merchants have been young and have spoken with curiosity as to whether I, the A-rank adventurer, am unusual.

"Haha, I just ranked it up the other day"

"No, no, still, the A-rank is a lot at that young age. Your lady's a B-rank, too, isn't she? With A-rank and B-rank, you're not afraid of any demons coming!

"" "" That's right, ha-ha!

The other merchants are laughing in a good mood.

Yeah, well, if it reassures you, okay?

"I'm done. Ugh!!"

The merchants, who until just now said it was okay to come, are shaking their faces bright blue.

The merchants are not the only ones. All the other adventurers were shaking with a bright blue face, although they were armed.

"Yikes, what the hell is going on with these massive demons coming at me!?"

Yes, they were right, we were surrounded by a bunch of demons.

That's quite a few, too. Maybe 300.

I was wondering if it even happened in a monster outbreak on a nearby land?

"Augabears on Forest Wolf, plus even Arc Coretle! Why are different kinds of demons coming together and attacking us!?"

Everyone is trembling and very unlikely to be able to fight.

Um, I guess there are a lot of E and F-rank adventurers because of the low request rank.

"Hey, what are you gonna do?

But only Mr. Liliera speaks to me calmly.

That's why B-rank adventurers, no matter how many demons there are, are not enemies.

"I will reduce the number, so please destroy the remaining enemies, Liliera and the others.

"Okay."

"Oh, hey! You guys know what this is all about!? There's nothing you can do about it!?"

The adventurers yell at me with a crying face.

You don't have to be so frightened.

"At this level, we can all afford to fight."

When I say that and cheer everyone up, I come forward and release the magic gently.

If it's about these guys, is this much magic good?

"Agniburst!!"

The burning magic emitted spreads fan-shaped and strikes the demons in front.

The flames of high temperatures bring the earth to a boil, and the demons who were within range suffer and dance mad from the flames that burn themselves from their feet.

"Mr. Liliera!

"I can't because it's hot! Chill!"

Whoa, this is rude.

"Blizzard Coffin!!"

Now cool down the earth that boils down with the magic of a snowstorm.

"I chilled it!

"Yeah, I'm going to attack another place!

Huh? Why?

For some reason, Mr. Liliera flies out to another location.

Liliera, who has increased the performance of her flesh with physical strengthening magic, enters the nostalgia of the demons and gradually hunts the demons' necks with allowances and spears in her hand.

It was like dancing, and I thought it was very beautiful.

Yeah, yeah, the training's just coming out.

Dragon Emperor Liu is also a lot more usable.

"Oops. I have to work, too. Now it's not hot or cold, so all the time...... Cyclone Tower!

I use the magic of the tornado to blow up the demons that surround me.

We can all attack right now, right?

Whoa, we need to be careful not to involve Mr. Liliera.

"Come on, guys, it's now!

……

Is that it? What's going on with everyone?

"It's over."

And, Mr. Liliera comes back wiping the blood paste on the spear.

"Huh?"

"Most of the tornadoes blew up now, and all the remaining demons fled frightened."

"Yes!?"

Sure, when I look around, I see the demons getting chilly and running away.

"Uh, that was surprisingly easy."

"Well, it must be for you."

For some reason, Mr. Liliera sighs like a shudder.

"A, you guys are Nanimon?

And the adventurers who were nearby ask questions about how their hips were pulled.

"I'm a free A-rank adventurer."

"I'm a regular B-rank, so don't come with me."

Huh? What do you mean, Mr. Liliera?

"Is this the strength of A- and B-rank adventurers?"

"Ah, A-rank or be..."

Hmm? Nothing. It's as normal as this.

"No, I'm an A-ranked paper! The real A-rank isn't like this!

"Seriously! What kind of a bunch of Haunted Monsters is A-rank!?"

Adventurers float fears and aspirations in the power of A-rank adventurers.

'Cause I got an A-rank because I was overrated for some reason. The people who worked really hard to get an A-rank are so much more determined!

"Uh, don't expect too much from A-rank people, you guys..."

Huh? What do you mean, Mr. Liliera?
