Chapter 35: Rank Up

That night, we returned just before the gates of Volton closed.

「This was very tiring. Let’s report to the guild tomorrow morning.」

「Yes, even I am tired as well.」

「Takumi-sama, I’m completely exhausted.」

By the way, Kaede is already sleeping in the Subspace.

We went home and the three of us entered the bath and washed each other then fell asleep in our respective rooms.

I have such a relationship with Sophia and Maria, so I share a bed with them alternately, but after a day like today, I just slept like a log till morning.

Next morning, waking up later than usual, the three of us + Kaede ate breakfast then wore the usual matching overcoats with our faces covered with the hoods, and walked 10 minutes worth of distance to report the completion of requests at the Adventurers Guild.

Immediately after we entered the Adventurers Guild building, Hans-san spotted us and guided us into the conference room.

「Thank you.」

「Nonsense, with the Devuel and Co. matter happening, it’s only natural that the Adventurers Guild safeguard its promising newbies. Well, in a sense, it’s also so that another Devuel incident doesn’t happen again.」

The talks turned to the request once the three of us sat down.

「And so, how’s your progress with the requests?」

「Yes, we’ve more or less completed all the requests we’ve received.」

「Eh?..................... Today is only a day after it was given yesterday, isn’t it?」

Hans-san’s eyes opened wide in surprise.

We accepted 3 types of requests.

・Goblin Subjugation

A free ranked permanent request.

Subjugate 5 Goblins to complete request.

Reward: 5 silver

Kobold Subjugation

A G rank subjugation request.

Subjugate 3 Kobolds to complete request.

Reward: 6 silver

・Maryl Grass Collection

A G ranked collection request.

A set of 5 bunches to complete request.

Reward: 5 silver

Although the subjugation of 365 goblins and there being superior species being present there were unexpected, we were also able to hunt Kobolds on our way, and we were able to forage enough Maryl Grass for our share and 50 bunches.

「In the first place, are you even an alchemist? I’ll buy if it’s potions.」

「Ah, potions, right?」

「What, you got some?」

I talked about the basic potions I made which were as effective as average Intermediate Potions. Thereafter, I explained that a large-scale sale would cause disputes with the Pharmacist Guild and after selling 100 pieces of each basic potion to the Papeck Company, I wouldn’t make for anything other than my own use.

「Ah, I did hear a rumor that Papeck Company was selling fairly expensive Basic Potions that were unusually effective. So those were potions made by Takumi. But that is regrettable, if the recovery amount of basic potions are large, then it would have been a great help to the Adventurers Guild.」

Barack-san and the Pharmacist Guild would definitely have disputes so he said he’d give up. Because the Pharmacist Guild would be in trouble if it couldn’t sell to the Adventurers Guild, the plan to trading potions with me was easily abandoned.

Then Hans-san came back with our guild cards.

「Well then, first will be the rewards for the completion of the requests and purchase of the Magic Stones.

Kobold | 6 subjugated | 12 silver

Maryl Grass | 10 sets of 5 bunches | 50 silver

Goblin | 350 subjugated | 350 silver

Superior Goblin species | 10 subjugated | 100 silver

Goblin Knight | 4 subjugated | 200 silver

Goblin General | 1 subjugated | 5 gold

Goblin’s magic stone | 350 pieces | 35 silver

Superior Goblin Species’ magic stone | 10 pieces | 10 silver

Goblin Knight’s magic stone | 4 pieces | 40 silver

Goblin General’s Magic stone | 1 piece | 1 gold

Special reward for defeating the colony | 5 gold

Total: 18 gold, 97 silver coins.

The money has been deposited into Takumi-sama’s guild card, so please confirm.

And Sophia-san and Maria-san have been promoted to F rank, and Takumi-kun has been promoted to E rank.

Once Sophia-san and Maria-san complete at least 1 more F rank request, they will be promoted to E rank.」

According to Hans-san’s explanation, Sophia and Maria have cleared the requirements to be promoted to E rank, however, because it has been decided that ranking up will be done in a one-two step rule, they would rank up after completing one more request.

「Hans, ask Takumi about the location of the colony, then put out a verification request.」

「Understood.」

Hans-san returned our guild cards and returned to work.

「Haa, for heaven’s sake, be a little more careful.」

「Yes, I will do my best.」

More or less after also undergoing a scolding, we reported the completion of the request and got the reward (which was the only thing we were supposed to receive), we were more tired than we had imagined, so we decided to go back home and relax.
