"Is this Frizia..."

The day after you qualify for the B-rank promotion exam.

We arrived in Frizia, the heart of Fredia.

"Something like Wang Du."

"It's hard to see a city this big..."

Frizia was more like a king's capital in a smaller country than a central city in the territory.

In the centre stands a large castle and the road seems well maintained.

Lots of people, lively.

Well, in a radical union without a king, a lord would be one of the top of the country.

It may not be surprising that if that lord is the place to live, he will be like the king's capital.

Through a city like that, we enter the Alliance.

I'm not sure about the process of taking a promotion exam or anything... but perhaps, speaking of contact points, you do.

"Can I take a B-rank promotion exam here?

I go to an empty desk, and I give you my guild card while I say so.

"This is... wait a minute"

When the receptionist receives the guild card from me, he compares what's written there with some paper on hand.

When that was over, the receptionist walked into the back of the guild, holding my guild card.

A few minutes later.

A receptionist returns with an old man.

The man's name tag said 'Branch Manager AIDS'.

"You're the Mathias of the example."

"... of example?

My lord asks me to raise you to A-rank as soon as I can.

Had you already spoken to the guild?

Perhaps you're using some kind of magic means of communication, but magic communication should be pretty valuable with current technology.

Is that why the connection between Fredia territory and the Kingdom of Jesus is so strong?

"So as long as I have the strength, I've been waiting for you to prepare just enough requests to go up to the C-rank in about ten days... apparently you don't need them. I don't know what kind of hand you used, but the rumor of a monster doesn't seem wrong."

That said, the Branch Manager will look at our guild cards.

The rank column said 'C-rank (promotional exam available)'.

"Can I take the promotion exam to B-rank right away?

"Oh, I always run the B-rank promotion exam. Promotional exams are conducted in the form of supervised fulfillment of requests… which is a time-consuming but relatively safe request, or a short but dangerous request?

"... the request of someone who needs a short time is not that withdrawal is not allowed, is it?

"Of course it is possible to withdraw. Exams will be treated as unsuccessful, but depending on the circumstances at the time of withdrawal, re-examination will be permitted at the discretion of the study supervisor"

Even if it is a dangerous request, if withdrawal is allowed, the substantial danger is not so high.

In fact, there are not so many situations in which even withdrawal is not possible.

Alma and Lurii also have a lot of practice in emergency retreats as a top priority.

And since I have my hand in retreating in the flight of Illis in the sense of an emergency, even time for take-off would be fine if I earned it.

Of course I'm not willing to fail to pay attention to my surroundings, so I'm unlikely to find myself in that dangerous situation.

"Okay. Please do it if it takes a short time.... Any objections?

"No!... If it looks bad, I'll do my best to get away with it!

Lurii and Iris nod at Alma's words.

All three seem to agree.

"... as you heard from the Kingdom of Jesus. I think I'll be relieved to take care of it."

... What the hell kind of stories did the King or Principal Eduardo blow in?

Well, it's easy and helpful to talk about.

"Will you take the exam today? Or better yet, when you're ready?

"Depends on what you ask."

"This is the requisition."

That's what the Branch Manager wants from me.

――――――――――――――――――――

Special Request Rank B

The plain plains of Testra

Demons are currently occurring abnormally in the Testra Plains.

Some of them are powerful demons, which can cause damage to the surrounding city.

For this reason, I would ask a powerful adventurer to crusade demons that are considered particularly threatening even in the event of an outbreak on the Testra Plains and to remove the threat on the Testra Plains.

――――――――――――――――――――

"... it seems that there is no designated number of crusades."

"You didn't even write the reward."

"... that's your first request for a format to see..."

The request did not state the conditions of achievement or remuneration.

Can this... be called a request?

"Sure, it's definitely a special request. The difficulty will also be at the top of the B-rank requests. But of all the requests I can use for the B-Rank promotion exam right now, it's definitely the shortest."

"... is it true that it won't take long? Though the target type is narrow, it's going to take a lot of time to destroy a single demon on the plain."

Indeed, if we gather demons in the same way we used when we accomplished the request together, we can crusade a large number of demons.

But that is magic that can only be used in situations where demons are weak and there is no damage to the city that serves as a passage for demons. Not a hand that can be used at any time.

Even though the consciousness of demons is directed at us by Forced Detection, if it's a strong demon, just passing through is a disaster.

"Don't worry about it there. The Plains of Testra are small. If the information given by the Kingdom of Jesus on Matthias' strength is correct, it shouldn't take three days."

"Is three days short?

"Oh. Normally a B-rank promotion exam takes nearly half a month. In that regard, if you're just going to hunt this range of demons, three days is all you need.... if I had the strength to be a monster."

That said, the branch manager takes out the map and indicates the location of the testra plain.

The Plains of Testra were right around the city.

Sure, a pretty narrow plain. Depending on the number of demons, I don't think it'll take three days to flatten out.

Or it doesn't seem like it's going to take a day.

"What are the terms of achievement? The crusader seems to be a menacing demon, but I think there are many standards."

"Threatening demons are specifically... B-rank demons. Blade shrimps, fujitsuno turtles. Withdrawal will be permitted if there are stronger demons than that, and depending on the number of B-rank demons defeated, the exam will be treated as passing."

Huge tuna turtle......

Somehow, I'm starting to feel like there's nothing wrong with me collecting it in 'Forced Detection'.

Think about if you have a stronger demon than that, but stop.

"Okay. Take it right away."

In the meantime, it turns out that the Testra Plain is a narrow area, close to this town.

It seems true that this is a relatively timeless request.

"Will you take it, thank you"

Upon hearing my reply, the Branch Manager replied as if relieved.

Why would I just be thanked for taking the exam?

... Could you have pushed an exam against a shield for an unpopular request or something that nobody would take?

◇

Then, a few dozen minutes later.

My prediction came true.

This request is for the B-rank promotion exam, so there will be a guild examiner......

The examiner came out with a face that obviously seemed uncomfortable.

"Are you sure you want to take this? Would you like to make a request over here? I don't want to follow you."

Even then, he would recommend me to do another favor.

The examiner is a magnificent man, an atmosphere used to fighting.

It would definitely be strong compared to adventurers and others who were in the guild.

The examiner asked to avoid it so far.

This is obviously something.

... Do you want to ask?

"Is there something wrong with this request?

"Problems, nothing... you don't know?

"... I don't know, what?

"I've already tried three strong parties, a request for a plain of testras, but not one of them is back! I've heard rumors that Team Matthias is strong, but this request is reckless! You should do something else!

I see.

Is this how a request that no one succeeded came around?

"By the way, how many days has it been since the previous party tried?

"Ten days."

"... I see, you're wiped out"

This place and the Plains of Testra are not very far apart, so that after all that time there will almost certainly be no doubt that the preceding party has been wiped out.

Who the top party could not withdraw from......

"Okay."

"Will you reconsider?

Listen to my words and show me the answers the examiner relieved me of.

But of course the answer is no.

"No, of course I'll take it. No reason to say no."

That's what I said, I'll give the examiner the requisition.

The examiner then received the requisition with the same face as he had given up.

"... if you see me as dangerous, I'm gonna run first, okay?

"If you're in danger, it's the same for us to escape."

Three Luriis snort at my words.

Thus we ordered the plain plains of Testra to be laid flat.
