The Guild’s Cheat Receptionist

Thus begun, the renovation of the city of Lüneville with the construction of the arena.

It seems fresh to see the walls built again, even for those in Lüneville who were used to previous construction.

"Hey, that's amazing! Ilia saw it!?"

"We're going to build something thicker and higher than the previous walls, so it's finally going to be more than a king's capital city!?"

Jock, men who are counters in one hand.

"But maybe we need to make it that big..."

"National traffic seems normal, and I guess it's because of more demons"

Next to it, my fellow women are reaching for the glass with their imaginary faces.

In this way, the walls of the castle are often more topical than what the arena and church can do. Of course, there was a lot to talk about in the arena, and more people registered their requests with us in an effort to train themselves by the opening.

Now the stage is when a new residential, commercial and industrial zone is set up outside the old wall and a new wall is being built to surround its outer perimeter.

When the new wall is completed, the old wall is to be demolished, waterways and alleys are to be built on the site, and dewstores are to be opened so as to insert two.

The construction of the arena and the church has also begun, and when it comes to the arena, it can only be a facility pushed by the Union and progress is fast.

On the other hand, the architect, who was inspired by seeing the pool I had built on that planned construction site, became more interested in creating a new pool right next to the arena. I don't think I'm going to build a pool or wuoter slider that flows on boulders, but I guess I'll ask for it to be the size that I can use for skating.

"Hmm, scratching my back and so on, two hundred years early!

"Shh! Ah, the bad hands of that time are in a great position now......!

"Ha ha! Don't lick your guardian's wisdom!!"

Jijii won't get in the way for opening the Beecher class in the corner, either.

"If you wish to request from Ilia, Krune"

"I'm in awe. Kati, show me to the reception room on the third floor."

"Okay. Please come this way."

Employees are accustomed to being busy, and are able to act sparingly while speeding up the turnaround rate.

Everyone seemed to be enlivened, both physically and mentally, in a full life.

... other than a fairy poking around at the back table.

Parsha and Gabriel are still staying in the city.

Gabriel helps carry materials with the help of an industrial guild, but in the meantime, there's nothing he can do to parsha.

You'd be saving up quite a bit of money, and I think you're done with the investigation around Rondville that you've been doing to me in secret. Still all that's left is waiting for me to get a hint.

The truth is, I wanted to teach you on the merits of my contract with Silf, but that was stopped by us in person. Anything, you think you're unhappy with what the job is about?

They can't forgive themselves if it's not content that allows us to be more upbeat and proud of our accomplishments.

That's a stoic. It hurts my heart to run to cheat.

Now, it's noisy and peaceful Luneville, but naturally that's not possible if there are any problems in other regions or countries.

Human rights issues and civil unrest caused by revolutionary movements, natural disasters like famine and flooding. And the rumbling of demons that went crazy under the influence of magic vegetables, temper, and demons.

The countries around Rondville are also marginal in the first half, but it has certainly happened since the natural disasters of the second half.

One of them was now trying to influence Luneville.

"It's an acradist, and the demon is raging, is it?

It was Mr. Frank who recited it so.

And it was Mr. Ectre who snorted back.

What you two are discussing in front of me is a branch reception.

This is the form in which I am present and listening to Frank, who visited us at the end of the earlier request.

"70% of the country's sea-facing acradists know there are many seaport cities, right? While a giant demon is in the sea and unable to go fishing, when approached, it is rampant and causes great damage to the city.... I can't hold the people coming from the Acradists in Pinea. We have a messenger here asking us to keep it."

I also had experience with the Ice Dragon earlier, and other cities seem generous in hosting refugees.

Of course, that's the same for Luneville.

"As both of us, there is no reason to oppose acceptance"

"Good. Now, we need to secure supplies."

Listening to the story of the two of us boiling down on the request, I was thinking of something else… the connection between demons and evil gods.

Even if the Ice Dragon came to Luneville because it was manipulated by evil gods, this time the demon will never come to Luneville without the sea.

There are too many uncertain elements such as going to another city, even though the impact of the refugees is so roundabout. Shortage of seafood… can't be boulder.

I don't know what that means, and it's not just the arrival route, Akradist.

This time it doesn't seem like it has anything to do with evil gods. If there were, Luneville would come off the aim of the Evil God.

... I guess this is the place to conclude.

"- So this is how"

"Oh, nice to meet you"

They're both finished with the request creation step, and they're starting to shrug and shrug.

Come to think of it, maybe the two of you aren't resting busily because you have to build a police force by the time the arena is ready.

"Why don't you both at least have some tea? If you're in a hurry, it's hard to make a calm decision."

"... oh yeah"

"Ilia, I'm sorry, can you get it ready?

I'm awed, and I bow my head and get to preparing my tea. The tea contract is an arrangement of Mr. Frank's souvenirs. I'm part of the effort, and I'll serve the magic of fatigue recovery.

When I tarted the magic, Haku flew in.

Speaking of which, Gohan, you haven't.

"Pi."

As a result of continuing to eat my magic, Haku's status has crossed the Dragon God at the moment. Let your child grow up splendid and Gene be proud to be a parent too!

... It's a lie. I'm reflecting because I feel like I'm getting a little on track.

So now I usually try to feed fruits and vegetables and absorb magic from them.

Does it taste thin compared to my magic on boulders, licking me peppery enough but patient there.

It's going to be the Dragon God's two dances if you're spoiling it.

When I took the treat, Mr. Frank and the others were soothingly bickering.

The content was about no other love about recent developments, or eating sweets and loose cheeks, but it's probably the best way to relax your time with someone you feel comfortable with after all.

Then a few days later, the evacuees arrived.

Has the previous experience been brought to life, acceptance is complete without any particular problems? Later, we just wait for the demon problem to resolve.

... is not the norm in the world.

Two boys are standing in front of me in reception work at the counter.

The age is around ten years old, and the common denominator is blonde brown-eyed puppets. When you look at the making of your face, you look like a brother or something.

"You kids are from Acradist, aren't you? What's the matter with you?

They looked at each other and looked at me after they nodded and said:

"We want to be in the mercenary guild!

"Please put us in the mercenary guild!

I'm not the only one.

Most people who saw the words and appearance had lost their voices and stared at the two of them.

Mercenary guild...

"What do you two want to be in a mercenary guild?

Depending on the occupation you want, the content of the exams you take will change, and of course there is an age limit.

They lowered their gaze just a little and eventually looked up as if they were going to shake off the grid.

"" Hunter!

Hmm.

I have something to say, something to ask, but I can't help but prioritize my work.

"Both of you, did you bring the parental consent?

"Whew..."

"Ahhh..."

The two lean down.

If your parents are alive, the minor's application for affiliation to the guild requires parental consent, right?

That one. It's like applying for a part-time job.

Mercenaries and magic guilds can be quite dangerous, so most people cannot belong to or change guilds on their own until they are 10 years old. They're definitely not allowed to apply like this.

There are, of course, exceptions to the age limit, but only if there are more rare circumstances, such as abandoned or war orphans.

It's the Acradists and the less harmed who are coming to us, and I don't think there's anything stuck in them, seeing as the two of them.

"So, but if you pass the exam, you'll recommend me...?

"Oh, yeah! I'm sorry, sister!

Totally... who taught you that?

Sarah, the blonde is still a servant, but the tung-headed child definitely doesn't know.

"Do you know what the exam is about?

"Yeah, you're going to have the tester guild guy look at the noodles!

Well done.

But very well done, I guess far from it.

There are two conditions for recommending.

I'm qualified to serve as an examiner. Meet with guild staff or show merit.

The former stays the same, and speaking of the latter, if you're a mercenary guild, you think you'll actually come hunting demons, or you'll get excellent grades at some tournament.

More importantly, the recommendation may be made not only by Alliance staff who have received the test results, but also by Alliance staff of rank B or higher who belong to the Alliance in question.

But that's pretty hard.

Because you belong to the guild, and you know it's hard. Few people want their children to see them like that.

At any rate, they chose a method called exam, which is the easiest way to get their hands on.

"Well, let's test it."

"Ugh, yeah!

"Yay!

I feel guilty for two people smiling full of hope.

"Well, wait a minute, I'll get the person in charge"

"Oh, isn't that your sister?!?"

"I still have to accept it. I'm sorry."

Children who obviously drop shoulders even though it doesn't have to be me.

Is that it? Did you look gentle or something? I don't know what to say to myself, but the contents are on the outside, okay?

"Mr. Claude, please take the exam"

"Yeah. Copy that. Any applicants?

Showing the children to Mr. Claude, who came out of the office, he blinked.

"Uh... these kids?

"Yes, thank you."

"" Please!! "

I was surprised at first, Mr. Claude, but I smile the usual way when I see the two of you.

Copy that. Right this way.

The three headed for the courtyard.

I'm supposed to choose a good wooden weapon, but those kids aren't looking like they were learning anything in particular, and they'll be tested around the wooden sword without difficulty.

When that happens, the results are visible.

"Ilia. This request, please register"

"I'm in awe. So..."

Upon completion of several request registrations, the three returning from the courtyard showed up.

The children's eyes are congested and the area around their eyes and nose is red due to a strong rub.

"What do you say?

"Not at the moment."

I guess.

The status of the two is, to be honest, no less than that of a Luneville child.

When you're about a girl nostalgic for the toddler body of a crystal column guardian tortoise or a boy raised by a deep green wolf, you overpower and defeat the examiner's adult...... naturally you don't get to that level.

"Ugh..."

"Ugg, higg"

Oh, I'm crying out again.

Mr. Claude has a problem with his shoulders.

"Why do you two want to be hunters?

Wipe your tears with a soft handkerchief as you stroke. To my inquiry, I raised my face only slightly.

"... me, me, Tahiko"

"Gu just...... haha!

Interpreting what I heard, they seem to be Mr. Bonette's son, the merchant who brought me supplies this time.

Karel, your brother, is the son with the same tone.

Sarah Sarah's hair kid in a polite tone is my brother Lino.

Whatever, you think we've become disliked our powerlessness and the parents and their jobs who make money even at times like this who just get protected and get away here?

So I thought, on my way here, be the same hunter as the guilder who helped me many times.

"How come you're not a warrior?

"'Cause a warrior has to fight people, right? We want to protect people!

"We want the power to fight demons."

Sure, you have to fight people if you have guild orders, and there are penalties for refusing to do so.

Nevertheless, that order also has an escape route of taking another request, and the difference is not in the work of a warrior and a hunter enough to make that choice.

It doesn't make a difference in my job, but few judges put out letters of recommendation for hunter positions.

Many of the people who belong to the hunters hate humans or hate demons. Not everyone does, like the hunters we have, but it can be because it's not very good for emotional education to target them.

At any rate, this is not how the two of us who have failed the exam can do it now.

"Thank you, Mr. Claude"

"... thank you..."

"Thank you"

"You're welcome. Come back"

A little ventriloquist refreshing brother, Mr. Claude, goes back to the office.

The children left seemed a little refreshed spitting out the feeling they were smoking, but they still looked somewhere dissatisfied.

But, to put it well, he seems like a child, but to put it badly, he's a little too short-circuited.

"Both of you, why don't you go out a little later?"

After the reception work, Haku, who followed him, headed with him to Branch Cafeteria One.

In the kitchen there were more busy and moving employees than in the main building.

"Su, wow..."

"Yeah......"

A delivery man with a front cage crosses in front of the two overwhelmed.

"Let's go after it for a little while"

……

You don't understand my intentions, the blonde brothers just look back at me.

Still, when I walk out, they follow me in silence.

And the destination is a lined compartment of rapidly built huts. … a refuge area for refugees.

The kids ran out with expressions like I didn't know and peered into the cabin where the delivery guy went in.

Inside the cabin, grandparents and grandmothers were waking up from their blankets to receive food.

"... you wanted to show me this?

The children turning around were looking at each other as closely as they could.

I don't know what you were expecting, but this is what I wanted to show you, right?

"That's right. Grandfathers, you all have a nice smile."

"... you're comfortable. I don't even know when I'll be home."

"Then why do you think I can stay without pessimism?

To my inquiry, the children looked up to me.

What's your brother now and what does he mean?

"That's because you feel comfortable."

"... because here are those who defeated the Ice Dragon...?

I shook my head sideways to show denial.

"A blanket that doesn't have to be cold even in this season, where it raises the wind and rain. And because there's rice that you don't have to get excited about."

"Oh no!

"Have you ever lost any of them?

Karel, you tie your mouth and lean down.

Their parents are quite big merchants. Of course, my usual clothing and accommodation were protected by carriage beams even on my way here. Lower status than the children in Luneville was also due to the fact that they were not in an environment to help the house.

"That's not a bad thing. Rather, it is not something anyone can do to realize that they are powerless and have moved quickly into action. I think it's great."

The two had a look that seemed complicated, whether the praised pleasure and the feeling of shaming their privileged environment were grinding.

"Problem for both of us. Where do you think the ingredients and blankets used in that dish come from?

"That's..., ah"

Lino-kun was stuck in words trying to answer, and Karel, who was watching the look with a strange look on his face, notices something after you give him a beat.

Yes. Some of the supplies were brought to me by their father.

You don't have to bother poking at that. Just because you understand, I think these two would be enough.

So I'll just tell you the conclusion.

"I guess protecting isn't all about defeating enemies."

There are good sides to everything, and there are bad sides. Only look at one and it's yourself who ends up losing money.

Like I was once employed in a black company!... at the time, I didn't even think it was black. It's not what I could say though!

"... but"

Return to me in Karel's voice.

"I want to join the mercenary guild."

Why? Asked me, he leans down.

hesitant, hesitant...... eventually looked up and he answered.

"Because it's cool."

I want it back while I'm wasted.

Next to Karel, Lino-kun was frightened by his brother, who was too honest.

"Brother... let's pick a few more words"

"Hey, what the hell, Lino! Are you going to betray me!?"

"Well, well."

There are some things that seem a little less public than the kids here, but I didn't reincarnate them, so I think this is a better way to be childish.

Besides, bandits on demons, threats from commercial enemies... it's not like it's useless for a merchant to have combat skills.

Let's go back to the branch once.

Just like earlier, the two of you are unable to understand the intent of the question. But you took me for meaning, too, and the kids followed me. I'm supposed to hold hands for some reason, but there's nothing wrong with that except that Huck got a little grumpy.

Kids aren't included in men.
