The Man Picked Up By the Gods (Reboot)
The end is the beginning.
Since the Duke and his wife visited the city of Gimmel, the reconstruction of the city of Gimmel has accelerated.
Gradually, supplies from other cities began to arrive, and by the end of the month, the harsh winter had passed, and the snow that had fallen every day melted. As a result, the traffic of stranded streets became active, and distribution also recovered.
At that time, I rarely needed to help rebuild, and as an adventurer, I proceeded with various procedures related to the transfer of the business while fulfilling the request for a crusade near the city.
The security company is out of my hands, and as we used to decide, the Duke's house is under control. Nearly half of the hired personnel will return home with their salaries, and the remaining half will either be hired at the Duke's house or will be introduced to new ways of working.
Similarly, the hospital that was attached to the security company was entrusted to the Duke's house, but this hospital continues to be operated by providing a place for medical workers who had been harmed at work. Since I am interacting with Professor Maflar and the four residents, and working together while studying and researching, it is gradually becoming like a university hospital.
Although I still hold the rights to the laundromat and Bamboo Forest, I delegated the position of Store Manager to Mr. Callum, who assisted me as a former deputy store manager. In order to completely entrust the management, I took the position of owner and manager of the newly established "sales department".
Your job as a sales manager is to travel through the city and find a destination for your next branch. Also, consult with Callum on how to approach the customer in order to acquire Bamboo Forest customers.
... so to speak, all I have to do is take a look around the city I went to for adventurer activities and report back to Gimmel when I get back with information on good places and what I came up with. Just being more free than ever won't change what I do.
In addition, various businesses such as garbage disposal plants, construction-related businesses, cafeterias, and hotels are also managed by hiring someone who can be the manager. Not many of the people who suffered in this case lost their stores, so we were able to recruit people from those people. It might be a little careless to turn a blind eye... but I think we were able to summarize the conversation in a way that helped each other.
And I guess being a duke's engineer has increased my trust. A lot of people applied for the job, not only from managers, but also from employees who worked at the shop, security companies, and Tamer Guild magicians.
Interviews were tougher than the procedure, but thanks to this, I was able to outsource all the shops I had done in detail, and I was able to increase the number of employees in the laundry shop. Currently, new employees are being educated in the "Accounting Department", "Customer Service Department", "Security Department", and "Slime Management Department". The people I hired this time have a lot of experience in management and customer service, so it seems that some people are good at their jobs from the beginning, and it is easy to teach them.
Incidentally, three former slime researchers were hired as candidates for branch manager, along with the people at the Gimmel head office. Just at the right time, I was contacted by a branch in the city of Renaf, saying that they had "finished their education and decided to leave the store to me", so I asked them to come back to this opportunity and entrust each of them with a new branch and part of the new education.
If Calm decides they can trust them to learn how to run our store, there will be someone from among them who will take care of the new branch.
Of course, I won't force you if you don't want to. If you work to rebuild a lost shop, or to separate it from the money you earn for your life and independence, it's that person's freedom. As long as you don't intentionally damage the shop or employees or steal the cleaner slime.
As for the financial aspect, with the appointment of my engineer and the transfer of the business, I will be receiving a little bit more money than the total expenditure so far in the form of compensation money and research expenses from the duke's family, so it is a lot. You mustn't feel comfortable with this situation, but you don't have to worry about it.
... after two months like this, I'll devote myself to adventurer activities. We took advantage of the long-distance transfer magic with Remoulbird and Servant Magic as marks, and gradually processed the request. In addition, there were some crusade requests that could only be ordered by multiple people, so at that time, we temporarily formed a party with someone who was available.
The most frequent ones are Fay and Yudham, who were employees of the shop and easily accessible, and possessed the adventurer's qualification. Next, a group of young underdog adventurers who have somehow continued to interact. At work near the city, Mia and the others sometimes work together.
In that way, I've been working hard to improve my ranks... three months have passed, today.
"I have confirmed the completion of the request. With this, Mr. Ryoma Takebayashi will pass the promotion examination and become a C-ranked adventurer. Congratulations."
Thank you very much.
During the journey, I met the promotion conditions, took the exam, and finally reached the C rank.
However, as a result of this, a small problem is also occurring.
Just in case, this is due process and the Adventurer's Guild's decision, right?
"Of course, Takabayashi-sama has fulfilled many requests, and many demon beasts and bandits have been crushed, but they have more achievements than prescribed." In addition, since we have achieved the request for the first and second exams the other day, we have determined that the promotion is justified.
I'm very sorry about the other day-- "
“Oh, I'm not asking for an apology. I don't say that I can't understand the reason for the suspicion at all. However, it is also true that they unilaterally decided that it was wrong and talked about" detention "and" disqualification as an adventurer ". If you get a hard time after the promotion, we'll have to rely on the Duke's power to protect ourselves. That's why we wanted to be clear for each other. I have no intention of appealing to anyone here.”
The receptionist who tried to bow her head with a blue face was cut off, but it seemed that not only the receptionist who was in charge of the procedure, but also other staff and adventurers who were looking at the situation were relieved. Thanks to that, the air I've been holding up since I came in is just a little soothing.
“Now, we would like to renew your Alliance Card. Please wait a moment."
The woman in charge takes my card to the back room. Now that you're out of hand, if you look around you a little bit,
"Hey, what the hell is this air?" Even if that kid is in some kind of trouble-- "
"Idiot, don't say bad things."
Most people turn their backs on me, except for some people who don't know when I first came to this guild. Summarizing the flow until this situation happens in three lines.....
I'll do my best.
· Due to the speed and amount of the crusade, fraud is suspected at the reception.
The adventurer you were listening to became entangled at that time or later and exercised his strength.
This is what it looks like. This time, it was a bit of a (...) stiff-headed guildmaster and that breathless examiner. After that, I was told to "show my strength" in the primary exam as an exposed person, so I became quite conspicuous and talked a lot, but in terms of content, it was similar and stopped by.
I didn't think there would be such an alternate world tempest event by now, but since I really started ranking up... how many times? There shouldn't have been a double digit in the guild, so it's about the eighth time. Whatever it is, it's been a lot lately.
Honestly, I'm not comfortable, but I didn't sell the quarrels from here, and I don't need to use excessive care to solve them peacefully, so there are many parts that are relaxing in the mood. Mostly the only place where I'm not well known is in and around Gimmel.
On the contrary, recently, there have even been people who call me "the cleaner". I have heard that they are sometimes called after their appearance and activities when they become famous, but in my case, it seems that they often receive cleaning requests from the management of the laundry shop.
However, those who know my fighting ability and the achievements of the crusade requests, such as adventurers and guild officials, are calling me with the same meaning as some kind of worker who "wipes out the demon beasts and bandits and wipes them clean".....
I feel somewhat embarrassed, but it must be an acknowledgement of my ability. If you think about it, you can say that life is going well now.
I'm sorry to keep you waiting.
The lady at the reception will come back and return my guild card.... I don't know if you're gonna let me give you a fake and arrest you for forgery, but I'll make sure of that. In the meantime, I don't think there's anything wrong with it as far as I can see. Well, even if there was such a plan, it wouldn't make sense if you could just look at it.....
"Um, was there something wrong..."
"No, I was just chewing on the fact that I had become a C rank." Thank you very much. Now, if you'll excuse me. "
I have no grudges, I don't want to ask for an apology, but I don't think I can trust it. That's why I'm just being vigilant, just in case.
I thank the receptionist who asks me a favor and leave the guild later. I used the spatial magic to transfer to the city gate and left the city, and then I went to the Remoulbirds who had been sent out in advance.
"Oh? Is this... near the next city?" I've been pretty far. I knew it was fast. "
Pyrololololololo!!
The current location is probably in the middle of a high rocky mountain. Looking at the city's outer wall beyond the rugged cliff at the end of a scenic mountain road, the Limuru birds began to crow high, as they said, "What kind of thing is this?"
In fact, their maneuverability is impressive. From what I've heard, the next city is the westernmost part of the country. To put it simply, it is the periphery, and the route must cross three mountains with intense differences in height and height. Therefore, it seems that it takes three days even if it is by land.
Even though we can ignore the terrain if we fly, we sent them out just a few hours ago. I've travelled more than three days in the last few hours. It would be very helpful if you were in a hurry, like this time to increase your rank.
Even if the pursuer had been hanged, I would have been able to shake it off... even if I walked slowly at this distance, I would have reached Teresa, the westernmost city, before the sun set.
It was a little rough, but I was able to become a C rank, and I took a breath even to the Great Tree Sea. Let's do our best!
