5 Lesson 5 Rank Up and First Income

"Congratulations, Mr. Rex. With this request, Mr. Rex has been ranked D-Rank."

Elma, the receptionist, said that to me when I returned to the Adventurer Alliance after my first herb collection.

"Yes?"

That's crazy. My adventurer rank is F, and the request I made was for an F-rank herb collection.

What's more, I started today and worked as an adventurer?

"Why are you ranking up all of a sudden!?"

I don't know why!?

"Oh! That's Lex's brother! You're already in D-rank!

and Gyro, the adventurer of your contemporaries, is excited to speak up.

He started to miss me when I called him my brother after I saved him from Evilbor.

Plus, he's saying he wants to be a cousin or something. Come on.

"Yes, yes, Gyro is this way. I need confirmation of Goblin and Kobolt's crusade request."

Oh, my fellow wizard took me.

"Uh, no."

It's kind of like a dog being forced to take me for a walk.

Well, yeah, I guess it feels bad to be able to do it and be honest with you.

In previous life and previous generations, the people who came around me were just the ones who used me as a hero or a wise man, tried to get in, and tried to steal research.

"So first of all, this is the reward for collecting 50 bunches of herbs, 15 silver coins. Then…"

"Wait a minute!

"Yes, what is it?

"So why am I D-ranked!? That would be crazy!? Isn't that some mistake!?"

But for some reason, Mr. Elma remained smiling.

"It's not a mistake. Really, Mr. Rex is definitely a D-rank adventurer. Let me explain this to you."

"Oh, yes."

Oh, my God, I was gonna give you a proper explanation.

"First, it's about herb collection. This one is greatly appreciated for purchasing a large quantity of quality herbs. Because the work of adventurers is scratchy. And the assessment team praised the very polite manner in which the herbs were collected."

"Uh, thank you"

I'm kind of glad you complimented me on how to collect the herbs properly.

It's good to know the part where the potion works thanks to studying it in previous life.

The next thing I know, they asked me to do an extra assessment on more than one Evilbor.

Mm, you're here, Evilbor.

"This Evilbor thing is why Mr. Rex was promoted to D-rank."

"Evilbore?

"Yes, originally Evilbor is a class demon crusaded by B-rank adventurers. And if you call it multiple crusades, it's no longer a loss for the Alliance to be in the F-ranks. Originally, I wanted to go up to B rank, or at least C rank, but Mr. Rex was an F-rank that I had never asked for, so I suppressed him to D-rank to avoid getting into trouble."

Oh, I'm glad about that.

I was caught up in a disturbance because of something weird and noticeable in my previous life.

The Adventurer Guild is a good organization to be cared for like that.

"In that sense, the dragon material buying project is also a rank-up project, but when it turns out that Alex did it, it's going to be even more troublesome, so we've temporarily put the rank assessment of dragon exorcism on hold."

"Oh, I don't mind that. Because it's a green dragon."

Naturally, right? That's the trouble if there's trouble with an assessment of about the green dragon.

"No, it's important that it's a dragon... no, it's nothing"

Is that it? For some reason, Mr. Elma has a deep sigh.

That's right, I'll tell you this time of year I'll be busy accepting purchases and requests.

Is it bad to talk too long?

"So, it's an Evilbore material..."

Yeah, yeah, I'm confident that one's been beautifully hunted.

I magically froze the vicinity of the wound to keep germs from entering the wound.

"Sorry, it is still impossible to buy all heads in our guild because there are so many Evil Bores and they are in too good condition"

"See ya!?"

Wow! Then I won't make any money at all!

No, I got the herbal bill.

"So I would like to buy one head in the Adventurer's Guild, one head in the Lord's Buy, and the remaining three in the auction in Wang Du"

Huh?

"Even as an Adventurer Guild, such a beautiful crusade of big demons can be a valuable resource. That's why I'm going to do my research and buy it."

Oh! My crusade skills have been appreciated! It was worth the effort to make the wound smaller! But I can't believe the research materials.

"So can the rest of Evilbore do the same?

"Oh, yes."

Good - for now, I have an income for two heads.

I wonder if this will cover our living expenses.

I wonder how much it will be!

"We will buy 1000 gold coins for a single purchase in our guild."

"... Huh?

How much now?

"It's 1000 gold coins. We will fill out the ledger with 100 gold coins and 900 gold coins with Alliance bank deposits, as they are not readily available"

"1000 Gold Coins No No No No No No No!?"

My words bore my surroundings. [M]

I shouldn't, I got a voice.

'Cause there are 3 copper coins in a bunch of 10 herbs!?

Uh, 10 copper coins and 1 silver coin, 10 silver coins and 1 gold coin, so convert it to 1000 gold coins and 100000 copper coins... about 33333 times more than herb collection!?

"Hey, isn't that some mistake!?"

But Mr. Elma shakes his head to the side.

"Mr. Rex, large demons are very difficult to defeat beautifully. Fur, skin, and scales are more valuable the larger the clean area. Even in that sense, the whole Evilbore fur is worth a lot.

"Oh, really?

"And there was a medical examination of the purchase of Evilbor from the lord's envoy, but this one has yet to be presented with an exact amount. But the lord Viscount Grimoire is a nobleman with a vast and fertile territory, so I'm sure he'll buy it higher than the Ningro Adventurer Guild."

Ki, will you buy more than 1000 gold coins!?

'Cause this is Evilbore!?

Should I buy it that expensive?

A better quality demon is full of demons!?

"And for putting it to auction, this one I'm sorry, but it's the same as the dragon thing and it won't be money any time soon, so please wait right now"

"Oh, yes, I don't mind that. Speaking of which, what's going on with the dragon auction?

Even so, it was yesterday today, so I'm not expecting it.

"The dragon was brought out earlier this morning for the King's Capital. The auction will be held as early as three days later, but perhaps the battle has already begun among the earliest nobles."

"Really?!?"

The aristocratic information network is amazing.

"The dragon will definitely have a winning price above EVILBORE too, so wait and see!

Mr. Elma winks with a good fist grip.

"Ha, ha... I hope"

Thousand gold coins in Evilbor, but how many dragons will it be?

"Oh, yeah, I forgot to tell you something important."

Mr. Elma accidentally mentioned that when he was putting 100 gold coins in a magic bag, which was part of the price of the prepared Evilbor.

"Is it important?

"Yes, my lord, Viscount Grimoire, invites me to dinner."

"Oh, that's good. I forbid it."

It's a hassle, so take it easy and pass.

"Really? Okay."

Mr. Elma also accepted to flow.

"... what, eh!? What are you saying no!? It's an invitation from the lord!?"

He didn't approve.

"'Cause noble opponents and stuff are a pain in the ass"

"No, but it's a tremendous honor!? You could even sign up as a knight if Mr. Rex works!?"

That's more troublesome.

"No, I really won't. I want to live plainly."

"Uh." Huh!? "

What's Mr. Elma talking about?

I wonder if you look like that even though you're beautiful.

"Then I'll do it."

I left the Guild with no more trouble.

"Hey, wait, Lex!

I can't hear you. I can't hear you.

If you return the money to Aug, we'll have a sumptuous dinner today -!

◆

"Did you hear about the example rumors?

We were having a conversation about a rumor.

"Yeah, I heard about the dragon going up for auction."

"And the body of that dragon is in surprisingly good condition, isn't it?"

"You think they were knocking everything down with their necks in two? What kind of demon sword could do that?"

After all, did they have any information on the dragon?

Auctioneers are the ones whose ears are fast.

But I don't even know this information.

"Have you heard of anyone who was witnessing the scene where the dragon was exterminated?

"What!? Who the hell was watching!?"

Heh heh, I still don't think I grabbed your information.

No, it looks like some of them already have information.

"It's Sir Leo. I hear he ran into a dragon on a top-secret mission."

"You said it was a top secret mission!? I didn't hear that!

"I haven't seen Sir Leo in the last few days with reason."

Friends who say ten colors of thoughts on my information.

It was Sir Argyle of the military faction who was particularly surprised by the word mandate.

He was quite surprised that the knight's assignment had not been communicated to him.

"What the hell was Sir Leo's assignment!?"

"This is Sir Argyle, and now we're talking about dragons. Besides, I was wondering if it would be disrespectful to explore the contents of the top-secret mission."

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

The same goes for saying that the word disrespect is, after all, the order of the one above us.

I mean, you're not trusted by him.

"Guh."

Sir Argyle groans in remorse.

Well, military and financial factions are unfamiliar things all the time.

"Sir Leo's story is that a strange boy suddenly came down from the sky, jumped the dragon's neck and left again in the sky"

"From the sky!? Sir Leo doesn't know what he's talking about!?"

They say the angel solved this case.

Salon wrapped in laughter in my joke.

But everyone is not laughing.

Sir Leo's top secret mission, and the mysterious boy who defeated the dragon, and even the weapon that beheaded the dragon, deduces something in this little piece of information.

Most importantly, it is obvious that the highest priority is the award of the dragon to be auctioned.

Well, what's the matter?

Who to work with to get the material you want.

I'm worried about deciding who to deal with.

Our night is still going to be long...

"Oh my God, gentlemen! That Evilbore is going to be auctioned off!

"" "What!?" "

Suddenly the salon becomes noisy over the information brought in.

"Dragon followed by Evilbore, you say?

"No, it would still be a dragon there"

"And Evilbore is in incredibly good condition, and the fur seems to be enough to be in a whole rug!!"

"" "" What?!? ""

Incredible, that there is a whole Evilbor fur over 10m!?

Once something like that is on the market, laying it in the halls of the royal castle won't make it any worse!

"And they're going to have 3 ebill bores in all the same condition!!"

"" "" What, no, no, no!? ""

and that quality materials for demons with terribly high crusade difficulty will be sold so continuously!?

Once a few years, or once a decade!?

"Besides, they say it's the Adventurer's Guild in the Town of Toguy that's been selling the now rumored Dragon that's been selling Evilbor!!"

"Hey, what!?"

Hey, what the hell is going on in that town!?
