"I'm the branch manager here, Darkf.... Baron Hildesheimer, the clerk was very rude earlier.... but she didn't mean it either -"

I see.

Speaking of which, am I treated like a temporary baron?

My title was given to me when I fought the doll, only in the form of a temporary - but the king seems to intend to leave me with a temporary title.

For that reason, even now that the battle with the example doll is over, I remain a temporary baron.

"No, it's nothing. I don't care there."

"Thank you for your generous words, Baron Hildesheimer"

... This aristocratic treatment is kind of uncomfortable the other way around...

Well, in a negotiating setting like now, it could be somewhat useful.

"So here's the thing... I want to take this request for a reason. Or I want you to meet my client."

"... I'm sorry. No matter how much Baron Hildesheimer's orders, you will not be able to break the required rank determined by your client. … information about your client, even if your lord can't talk to you."

"What if my client is a criminal?

When I hear that, the Branch Manager looks surprised.

And... I say it after I've done my eyes on the requisition.

"Are you saying that your client, Mr. Peekus, is a criminal?

"It's possible"

"... I'm sorry, but we can't talk about the client's information just because of the possibilities. If you also provide evidence, we will disclose it immediately…"

Well, you can't do it without proof on the boulder.

No one will trust the guild if a marginal nobleman, who is also not a lord, is whispering his client's information just because he says' the client may be a criminal '.

... If I just caught him, it's probably some guy hired by The Extreme in Combat Techniques or something.

There shouldn't have been a guy named Pecus in "The Extreme in Warfare".

So as originally planned...... let's go with a policy of increasing the rank.

"So do we have to raise the rank to a?... You can count the previous crusade against the Demons as a promotion condition, right?

"Of course it is. … then all you need to do is promote to C-rank… Mathias and the others should be able to get a special promotion on top of the Alliance."

Special promotion?

You don't have to let the king through, you can do that.

"... how many days does that take?

"Is it the fastest two days, something like that?"

"That's too late.... Then it would normally be quicker to accomplish the crusade request and raise it to C-rank.... 200 E-rank requests, 500 D-rank requests, right?

Fortunately, the Alliance here has a great deal of requests.

If you rush to random demons, you will be able to accomplish 500 requests in less than a day.

Even including the time it takes to restore the magic used, it is quicker to accomplish the request.

"... With Baron Hildesheimer's strength, is regular promotion faster than special... Then shall I prepare a good request?

"Are you sure?

I'd appreciate it if you could prepare a request to increase your rank.

"Baron Hildesheimer should be A-ranked because of his strength. Somewhat forced to go up to A-rank and no one will complain"

That's what the Branch Manager writes two requests for.

"Make this request. … as far as I can tell, it's the easiest request to do a number"

"... should I take this and defeat 200 E-rank Demons and 500 D-Rank Demons?"

"Yes, as long as it's ranked right, I thought it would be very easy to do the numbers as long as you have the strength"

In the case of an ordinary crusade request, only the type of object must be found and defeated from among the many demons.

Besides, I don't even know if one crusade counts as a single request.

However, with this request, we can accomplish the request in a row simply by appropriately knocking the demon around.

Defeating demons below the F-rank is a weakness that cannot be recognized as fulfilling a request, but making it any easier on a boulder would make it inadmissible as a D-rank request.

"... thankful"

That's what I said, I ordered two requests.
