The next morning, after breakfast, Aeta heads to the guild to get her buying reward.
There are many adventurers who receive requests in the morning, and the front of the bulletin board/request reception was crowded, but the purchase is often made after the evening, so it is empty.
Aotea heads to the buying reception where no one is lining up to avoid the bustle of the morning.
"Sorta has come to claim the reward for yesterday's material."
That said, I submit my guild card. The guilder was the same official as yesterday, so the conversation went fast... should have.
"Uh, Mr. Sorta. Thank you for yesterday, please wait a moment."
Confirm the card and give the reward. That was the normal flow, but he rushes to the back stairs with no reward.
"Nah, I only have a bad feeling about it."
"Thank you for waiting. Mr. Sota, please go upstairs to your room."
When the guilder returns from the run, he guides him by hand to the stairs behind the reception.
"Say no, give me a reward quickly"
"Ho, it takes some time to prepare the reward, so I'll be ready while you're upstairs, please go upstairs"
The guilder makes a painful excuse to redirect him upstairs.
"Then I'll make you wait here, so get ready soon."
"No, that, but..."
"If it was, I'd come back after noon. If that's the case, we can have it, right?
"No, that's, yeah, but it's not, that guild master..."
He wanders off with a voice so small that he can't hear it behind him, and he's sweating on his forehead.
"Forgive me in that corner, because he was just ordered by the Alliance Master, too"
"Milfa."
It would also have seemed to him in the saving hand of the goddess, conceding the response to Mirfa.
"Yes, yes, so, Mr. Sota, I'd like you to come upstairs today."
"No, it's going to be a hassle again"
"Please do something about it there. I want to talk about ranking up."
Aeta frowns at the words.
"What? I just signed up yesterday, and I haven't fulfilled a single request."
"Shit, we're talking about that, too."
Mirfa whispers.
"Ha, you have no choice. Do you want to follow me? If it's bad for me, I'll be right back."
"Yes, then come this way"
Milfa leads the way, knocks and enters the Guildmaster Room.
Gran sits on the couch first, prompting Ethereum to sit opposite it.
"You're here, or you're late. No, that's good. I wanted to talk to you about your treatment."
"Oh, Mirfa said what a rank-up would do."
"Exactly. I'm going to rank you up in D-rank."
I'm surprised to open my eyes to that word.
"What? I signed up yesterday and the rank should be" F "at the bottom."
F-rank to D-rank means 2-rank increase, but usually a certain number of requests will be made and the rank increase will not be certified without demonstrating strength or certain merit.
"Yes, I rank it up at my discretion. Yesterday's material and what you can't do publicly, but keep it in the F-ranks where you can get the King Class Demon Stone, it's a treasure spoilage."
"Well, if you're going to lift me up, I'll take it as lucky."
"But not right away. I want you to take a simple exam."
"Well, I don't mind staying F-ranked"
"Ha, I thought they'd say that"
Mirfa sighs and Gran wrinkles between her brows.
"Uh, okay. Up to D-rank on my authority, I won't complain! That's it."
"... Are you sure?
"Oh, I don't mind. This is better than getting you out of this city."
"Right."
Aotea scratches her face.
"Uh, can you talk about that without me?"
"I think it would be better for you to blow things up, because if you do it poorly, then the rebellion seems strong."
"Well, now I've decided to do what I want to do."
"Next time, what?
Mirfa reacts to Ethereal Crush, but Ethereal waves that it's nothing.
"So, are we done talking about ranking up?
"Hmm, I wanted to ask you again about the Demon Stone, but I'm sure you'd talk about it"
"I don't even talk about it. But I just knocked him out in the woods. Of course we don't talk about how to fight."
"I guess, well, let's just say I'll give you a survey of the woods for once. I don't doubt the Lord's words, just in case."
Aotearoa shrugs her shoulders.
"Whatever you want, can we go now?
"Yes, thank you for your time. You'll keep your guild card, I'll update it to D-rank and give it to you, so let's go to the reception counter for the purchase below. I think we have a reward."
Back at the reception, the same guilder was waiting just now.
"Oh, I've been waiting for you. The reward is ready. The assessment amount, but the Goblin species is a purchase of Demon Stone only, the Bore species will have Demon Stone, Fur and Meat, the Oak species will have Demon Stone only, and the Wolf species will have 44 gold coins, 95 silver coins, 78 copper coins and 7 iron coins multiplied by 15% on the total amount with the purchase of Demon Stone, Fur and Fang. This way, please."
"Oh, thank you. I'm sorry I put you through this."
When I receive it, it goes in my backpack.
"Yes, no. It's my job, and mass delivery is helpful here."
"Yes, Mr. Sorta. It's an updated guild card."
It makes it look like it's in the pocket of my receiving trousers, but my earlier rewards and cards are in the sub-vault.
"Oh, it'll help if you don't call me up next time."
"Heh, that depends on Mr. Sota"
He shrugs his shoulders and gives a look like a man, but he leaves his guild behind without saying anything more.
Ethereal, who leaves the guild and strolls around the city with Plala, but then there was a shadow to follow.
