5 - 3. Guild Card and Partner Card

"Welcome, are you registered?"

"Yes."

"Do you need an explanation of how to register as an adventurer?"

A receptionist with a short bob or brown hair cut off at the collar and wearing a dark blue jacket that looks almost black like a uniform asks me about it.

"Please."

Yes, this is the information about the Adventurers' Guild.

He then opens a leaflet-like document and shows it to us.

I responded as usual to the question, but the log window also showed a choice. However, it seems that even if I respond with a normal conversation, the message is recognized. It would have been embarrassing if it had not been recognized!　And I'm glad they recognized anything other than yes/no!

Well, I had a normal conversation with Galahad without any discomfort, so it's not a big deal now.

The receptionist's explanation continued in spite of my inner turmoil.

Anyone without a criminal record can register as an adventurer for free. The adventurer's card you will be given after registration also serves as your ID card, and you may be asked to show it even outside the guild.

The receptionist begins her explanation, pointing to the location on the leaflet.

Ranks range from F to A and S above that. Soloists can receive requests of the same rank, and party members can receive requests up to one rank above the lowest rank. When you register, you will start with rank F."

"Rank advancement is possible after a certain number of requests are completed. You may be required to take a test at that time.

"The main job of the Adventurers' Guild is to facilitate requests for adventurers. Please choose the request you wish to accept from the list posted on the bulletin board and present it to the guild counter with your guild card. You can receive up to three requests at the same time. When you finish the request, please bring the request form and your guild card to the counter. You do not need to accept any requests at all, but only to report and deliver your work to the guild.

"Always-on requests have no expiration date and do not cost any money, but requests with a stated time frame will cost a deposit, called an . If you complete the request within the time frame, the deposit will be refunded, but if you do not complete the request within the time frame, the deposit will not be refunded. The deposit will be exempted up to rank E."

"If you commit a crime after registration, your guild card will turn red. You can change it back to the original color by paying a fine, but for serious crimes, an X (cross) will be written in the lower column of the card even if the color is changed back.

If you have a red card, you will be penalized by not being able to use the guild. I'm sure you will be fine, but please be careful."

It was explained to me very casually, but could I become a criminal?

! The only thing that comes to mind is "K" (killing a player). Is there? K, you're killing us all at once.

That's the end of the explanation. I will give you this information, so please read the others in your spare time.

When you accept the leaflet, it disappears from your hand and a menu opens instead, informing you that the section has been added to the help section.

There was also a <> at the bottom.

Apparently, the help section will be updated with more information on how to use the card and what it is all about, which is a bit convenient.

Please put your hand on this card.

A transparent card, one size larger than the real world cash card, was presented to me on a thin tablet-like tray, and I did as I was told and placed my hand on it.

Then a writing-like pattern in English appeared along the edge of the tablet in a clockwise direction, and as I circled around the edge, the card glowed faintly and the transparent color changed to a dark smoky crystal.

Please accept it. In addition to the information you can see on the card, it will also contain a record of your requests and defeats.

Title None

The card I received was simple, with only three lines.

When he touched the pouch attached to his waistband, an item window opened and the card was transferred from his hand.

The card did not seem to be counted in the number of items in his baggage, and a separate slot was added to his baggage. The initial pouch can hold 30 other items. In the upper left corner of the pouch, there is an amount of 1,000 cils.

The status window allows you to check your status from other windows than the card, and the information of your adventurer rank, Rank F, has been added to the status window as well, which seems to be linked to the status window.

While the window was closed, the explanation continued: the guild card allows the owner to view various data about himself, such as the number of kills, the profession that appears on the card is the one set in the left-most slot, and titles can be displayed arbitrarily from the titles acquired.

Also, as Galahad mentioned, you can duplicate and exchange partner cards from the guild card.

"This concludes the explanation of the registration process.

Let's accept the guild's request.

The receptionist concluded with a smile, and an announcement was made in her place.

Guild requests can be found on the bulletin board and submitted at the reception desk.

You can also receive orders from the list of requests in the menu only when you are in the guild.

Let's take it from the menu this time.

It seems that you can search for a request while relaxing in the bar without having to stand in front of the bulletin board. Follow the guidance and accept the first request. The request was as follows.

Rank F

Request name: Delivery of 3 flying rabbit horns Duration: 3 days

Client: Picol

Report Guild

Reward 50 cil.

Acceptance fee -.

*Get me three horns from the flying rabbit in Fast Brim! The number of people who have been in the same position for a long time is increasing.

Yes, the rabbit you just ate. There is a little more information than the request form posted on the bulletin board.

The fast brim is just outside the south gate. This time we will move on and give you a tutorial on the battle.

His vision went white again, and the next thing he knew he was in a meadow.

It feels strange to be dazzled when you are not dazzled. In fact, I was a little nervous when I first came out to the plaza, thinking I was dizzy.

Let's look for the flying hare.

Grasslands as far as the eye can see. The image I had of a meadow was of knee-high grass, but here it was covered with soft, ankle-high grass like hairgrass, making it look more like a meadow.

When I looked for a sign of something, I found, without looking for it, a light brown creature with horns and eyes that were not good enough to be a rabbit.

What is it about rabbits with those sharp front teeth?　It's vicious.

I'll try Animal Demonology.

A flying rabbit.

Classification: Demon

Known information.

An announcement was made that the use of the appraisal had been treated as a discovery.

There are two types of monsters: non-active monsters that do not attack unless you attack them, and active monsters that attack when they come within a certain range.

If the player reaches H.0, he or she loses combat, dies after 60 seconds, and is revived at the last temple he or she visited.

When you die, you lose half of your gold and have your status reduced by one-half for a certain period of time.

H!? The maximum value of H!

The menu opens and H! gauge is glowing.

It is always better to display it.

I pull the three gauges out of the menu window so that they are always visible at the edge of the view.

The gauges are H!? M!? and E! . I pull out the three gauges from the menu window and display them at the edge of the view. I also display a clock.

The translucent window in a hollow space at a certain distance from the body is a strange sight.

Animal Demon Appraisal] is a very useful tool for the evaluation of animals. The number of E!

Let's try using magic.

Are you equipped with a wand or grimoire?　Please note that you can perform magic with your bare hands, but the weapon's correction will not be applied.

The use of magic requires the use of M! M!? is the amount of magic power.

M!? is 0, you will fall into bad statuses such as [Dizziness] and [Anemia].

The status is M! is recovered by restoring M!

If you continue to leave the condition at "M!? will start to decrease, so be sure to recover as soon as possible.

M!? The maximum value of M!

During the announcement, M! gauge was glowing.

Next, the E! gauge glowed.

Physical attacks and certain skills use the E! E!? indicates hunger and instantaneous strength.

Physical skills require <<>and >When you use a skill, it is temporarily divided into <>The amount of E! The value of <>The skill will gradually recover to the state where <

E!? gauge will decrease naturally without any action.

E!? is 0, the movement speed will be reduced to one-tenth of the normal speed.

The movement speed is controlled by the E! is restored by eating or other means.

E!? is 0, M! will start to decrease, so be sure to recover as soon as possible.

I think rice is very important.

The H!? /M!? /E!? will be recovered after the tutorial is over.

Now let's see what magic and sorcery we can use.

Tap the order in which the lights glow in the menu. What is [Golden Magic] after all?

Fire Magic - Fire Needle M!

Water Magic - Water Needle M!

Gold Magic - Needle M!

It seems that only one type of magic can be used at a time, though they are listed by tabs. I wonder if "needle" means to make a needle appear. ......

Recognize the target and cast the magic spell you wish to use.

Can't you choose from the menu? It's embarrassing to fight while shouting out names of techniques and spells. No, if you leave the window open, you can select from the menu, but it seems to be a hassle to look at the menu and tap the necessary magic instantly.

I'll take your word for it that there's no chanting in the ...... skill set.

"<>!"

Raise your wand and cast a spell. The announcer told us that the more powerful the spell, the longer it takes, and that the spell is canceled if you are attacked during the chanting.

And then, as expected, it was a <>. It was a metal needle the size of a knitting needle, not a sewing needle. When the hit the flying rabbit, it let out a yelp and came at us with its horns out.

The rabbit jumped and collided with the which it chanted in a hurry, causing the rabbit to lose its balance and fall. The rabbit lost its balance and fell down.

I was so flustered that I called out a bunch of words, but it seems that the result was all right. The flying rabbit turned into a particle of light and vanished.

I was going to be a magical swordsman, but I wonder if I should reconsider. If it had been melee combat, I think I would have taken a lot of hits. No, I'll get used to it and I'll be able to handle it calmly, I'm sure I will.

And I like the <, it doesn't look like magic, but it's cool.

I got the horns of the flying rabbit.

I've got some rabbit meat.

Items drop when you defeat demons and other monsters. The dropped items can be used for delivery or for production, so let's try various things.

There are two left. Let's keep up the good work.

M!? is likely to be spared from the previous battle, but I want to save it because I don't know what will be there.

I wonder if I can recover from this if I just sit here.　I looked around to make sure there were no enemies around, and lay down on the spot.

Sorry, I have never seen such a field of soft grass and no insects in the real world!　And after the tutorial, there should be other players in the meadow!

I lie down and look at the sky for a moment. The sky is full of unobstructed views. The clouds are moving fast. There is only a gentle wind on the ground, but it seems to be very strong in the sky.

The feeling of wanting to take a nap has come to an end. A small, dull thumping sound comes from the ground. It is probably the sound of a flying rabbit hopping.

You gently get up and look around, and see a flying hare further away than before.

I've got the hare's horns.

I got the skin of a flying rabbit.

The meat of the rabbit that was killed this time has been replaced by its skin. I have no problem finding the horns as a quest item, but I have learned that the drop has been changed. So it's not fur, but skin.

M!? M!? I have to stock up on recovery medicine. As in other games, I do not doubt that there are medicines. I'm afraid that missing an attack will hurt me, so I quietly approach the third one from behind and attack it first before it notices me.

This time, I used Water Needle and Fire Needle. I thought Japanese was not good enough for this one, but I tried chanting <>, but it also activated. I wonder if it is appropriate.

I got the horns of the flying rabbit.

I got the skin of a flying rabbit.

I have fulfilled the conditions of the request .

The skill list was updated with [M! Natural Recovery], [H! Natural Recovery], [Far-sightedness], [Diligence], [Presence Detection], [Surprise Strike], and [Body Art] have been added to the list of skills.

Skills are added to the list by actions and learned by spending skill points from the list.

There are other ways to acquire the information, so try them out.

Skill points can be gained by leveling up and other means.

Then report the request to the Adventurers' Guild.

Your vision turns white again, and when it returns, you are in front of the counter of the Adventurers' Guild. I looked into the bar, but Galahad was no longer there. I ventured to talk to the three men who were drinking, but all I got from them was some trivia about their adventures.

We've already hunted the flying hare!　Late info!

I'd like to have more N!?C partner cards if I can call them to battle, since my friends and I have different log-in times.

I give up and report the request.

"Please report."

Produce a guild card and a pair of flying rabbit horns.

"Thank you very much, please put your guild card here and the part of the rabbit to be killed here.

As instructed, I placed the guild card on the same stone slab as when I received it, and the antlers on a blackish dark brown space on the counter slightly off the front of the receptionist's desk. This is probably why the top panel was two-tone.

"I have confirmed that your request has been fulfilled.

The edge of the stone slab on which the card was placed and the different-colored tabletop on which the corners were placed glowed, and the corners were gone, replaced by 50 sills on the counter.

"Thank you very much, here is your fee.

I received the 50 shillings and was done.

Oh, I should ask the name of the receptionist.

You can report your request from the list of requests only if you are in the guild.

Purchases can also be made from the menu, so take advantage of it.

This concludes the tutorial.

Thank you for your time.

Time was up.

The next thing I know, I'm back in Fountain Square.

Before I forget, I select Galahad from the list of patkas and choose to give him the patka. I only have one patka on my list.

I have obtained the title "Interactionist.

We are pleased to inform you that a player has exchanged partner cards for the first time with a <> of <>. This information is now available to the public.

If you meet certain conditions, such as becoming friends with a <>, the <> may give you a partner card. By exchanging cards with each other, you can invite each other to battle.

You can get more than one card from a , but you can only give your partner card to one person. If you discard a card you have exchanged, you will be able to exchange it for a new one, but you will not be able to receive a partner card again from the discarded . The number of replaceable cards may be increased by quests and other means.

Only one per is allowed. Two players may not exchange cards with the same .

Please note that if you have not logged in for more than 3 months, the partner cards received by the <> will be discarded. In such a case, you can give a new partner card to the same <>.

There are many in the . Let's actively promote interaction with them.

!

Is it me!

I am, and all I can think is "wow".

I've already exchanged all I can, but this means I have to choose a that will give me an advantage in battle, right?　I've done it ......," he thinks, and checks the communication item in the menu. The only thing that stands out is Galahad in the list of patkas. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to exchange with N!C before exchanging with a friend, but it smells like a bum.

Galahad

Rank A

Occupation Warrior

Title: Warrior of Red Valor

......

I checked his card and he is A rank.

Is this a good rank at the beginning of the game? < a helpful character?

I'll check the titles.

The first person who exchanged partner cards with a for the first time.

Effect: <'s partner card +1 slot

That's it, a remedy for not being able to re-select?

I am relieved to know that I can choose any character I want from now on. Galahad is good looking, and as a warrior, he can play the vanguard, though he is the type I would have chosen.
