Episode 28
“Hassan? I’m here.”
“okay. You are here.”
When Damian appeared at the window, Hassan covered himself.
He was the most talked about person among the staff recently.
Clear Summon Gate in the shortest time.
1st overall combat ability.
Situational Judgment and Ability to Perform 1st.
And even the eccentricity of killing all the adventurers who participated in the same test.
Damian’s actions were the kind of things that the branch manager of the Terra Kingdom branch could not be aware of, and Hassan was watching everything that happened at Summon Gate in real time.
It was a moment when I was able to clearly witness with my own eyes what Maria was talking about.
“We must recruit them.”
“Why?”
“Because they have that level of skill.”
“Isn’t that a hasty judgment?”
“The branch manager saw it himself, right?”
“Yeah… that’s true.
” Defeat the entire route solo. Weapon proficiency, basic taijutsu, combat sense, impromptu emotional control, everything was perfect. Everything from monster battles to person-to-person battles. A perfect human weapon?」
「…Maria? Aren’t you too excited?”
“He’s the talent I want!!!”
Therefore, Damian’s performance at Summon Gate was written in his hands without blood or tears, so even Maria Yones, who was called < Black Rose > by everyone, was impressed (? ) was enough.
“Your test results look good. Pretty impressive.”
“You killed an adventurer from the same world? Or did you clear the test alone?”
“both. Of course, the former is more of a concern.”
“I don’t have a hobby of killing people unconditionally, Hassan. I can see human nature. They said they were all yellow in the first place.”
“Does that sound more like a psycho?”
“Then I have nothing to say.”
Damian shrugged at Hassan’s words.
It was not wrong.
Due to his long game life, Damian was able to immediately recognize the thoughts and intentions of most people.
If it was Arin (= Arcia + children) who had just started playing the game, they could find out whether the so-called Ssaksu was a yellow guy or not with just a quick glance.
It was an intuition from a long game life.
Of course, even so, Damian’s PKing of a man with gentle manners could be justified because he had sufficient grounds for the normal situation and showed behavior that did not deviate greatly from that reasoning.
If, as he said, Hassan refused to use him, then in reality the adventurer’s license was no different from passing water.
“Listening to what you say, it doesn’t sound like you’re the type to go and buy something. Of course, if you go wild without knowing it, the guild will punish you.”
“sure. I know.”
“And when it comes to carrying out the request, you shouldn’t act like you did at Summon Gate. No matter how much we do business with human lives, my theory is that the point of the knife should be a monster, not a human. Well, although there are a lot of people who don’t look like humans.”
“Is it possible?”
“Hmm… Then, one last question. Would you like to receive this guild’s license and work as a mercenary belonging to the adventurer’s guild?”
Swoop!
And the moment Hassan puts his hands together on the desk and looks cautiously at Damian…
“Sure, Hassan. It is an honour.”
Remembrance!
Soon enough, Damian nodded his boar’s head towards Hassan, while even willingly offered to shake his hand.
“good. From now on, you belong to the adventurer’s guild.”
smile!
Eventually, Hassan smiled as he took Damian’s hand.
* * *
[Notice: You have obtained < Adventurer's License >!]
[Notification: Your affiliation has been changed to Adventurer Guild!]
[Notification: You have obtained the title < Break through the shortest time! >!]
“Hu. It’s finally over.”
Damian stretched out at the system message that popped up in front of him.
These were the rewards he had been waiting for.
An adventurer’s guild license that officially recognizes that you belong to the adventurer’s guild and allows you to handle news and requests from across the continent.
Unlike other users who were only Iron or Bronze, his license was shining in gold, and Damian soon knew what it meant.
[Adventurer’s license]
[Gold five tier]
In other words, the certificate he received from Hassan was a < Gold > level certificate, and it was a level that could not be easily ignored even for the lowest tier, 5th tier.
“I won the title without any problems…”
T-ring!
Damian wiped his chin while looking at the system window that appeared in front of him.
It was a title given at the same time as certification.
A title titled < Break through the shortest time! >, which may be quite unfamiliar to others.
[Break through in the shortest time!]
A title given to the person who breaks through Summon Gate, the adventurer’s guild’s testing ground, the fastest. Throughout the chapter, only one of the standard bearers bears this title.
Effects:
– +3% attack speed
– +3% movement speed
Special notes: This guy is super fast!
And after Damian nodded as if satisfied with the description of the title of < Break through the shortest time! >, he was able to confirm that the effect of the title was not different from his memory.
In fact, he broke through the Summon Gate alone not only because all the participants were wiped out, but also in order to obtain the title of “Breaking Through in the Shortest Time!”
“Do you like it? I hope you like it.”
“Every time I hear it.”
While Damian was lost in thought, Hassan approached and spoke to him.
I couldn’t dislike it.
The gold tier license given by Hassan is only given to those who have been mercenaries for at least several years or who have successfully completed many serious quests.
Considering that usually countless adventurers struggle to obtain this license, it was no exaggeration to say that they actually ate raw.
If it was unusual, it was unusual.
Originally, in order for a user of a lower tier to be promoted, he had to go through several promotion matches hosted by Maria Yones, and it was so difficult that he had to go through other difficult procedures.
“As you know… Gold Tier licenses are given to mercenaries equivalent to 10 Iron Tiers, 7 Bronze Tiers, and 3 Silver Tiers. Therefore, the level of quests that can be accepted is quite high.”
“Yes?”
“And it’s customary for mercenaries who have been issued an adventurer’s license to carry out their first mission accordingly.”
“aha?”
“So I’ve been looking for some first missions that might suit you…”
Sew!
Damian shook his head, and Hassan held out the papers.
All of them were gold level quests.
Usually, mercenaries who receive quests were able to pick and receive one or two levels higher or lower than their own level.
The mercenaries who had just passed through Summon Gate and obtained an adventurer’s license would inevitably go through a ceremony with a request set by the guild.
For the guild, it was like reconfirming the certificate they had issued, and for the mercenary, it was a tutorial to practice how the guild’s mission was carried out.
If it was custom, it was custom.
Good is good because we were able to handle mutual trust as well as work mastery together.
“Exploring the depths of the kingdom’s underground waterways… Escorting the youngest son of the Marquis family… Harvesting Drake’s breath? hmm. This is…”
And while his eyes were going through the papers Hassan held out, Damian decided to see which one would be the most suitable assignment.
“What is this?”
“hmm? What do you mean?”
It wasn’t long before Hassan received the request that Damian pointed out, picked it up, and began examining it.
“aha. You mean the village where the sheep disappeared?”
“The village where the sheep disappeared?”
“okay. Coneil is to investigate what is happening in the town. An official letter of cooperation from the government office came down.”
It was a request with a name similar to a traditional fairy tale, which I couldn’t tell what it was about just by hearing the name.
“Speaking of an official letter of cooperation…”
“It’s such a remote place. It is also the tip of the kingdom. Why send precious knights to a place like that?”
“Are you saying it’s better to do things with money?”
“yes. After all, your head is working fine.”
Hassan nodded at Damian’s words.
It was a simple business.
The kingdom was operating a universal administrative agency called < Government Office > to look after the difficulties of the people, and all matters that such a government office could not solve were solved by subcontracting to the adventurer’s guild.
Of course, the down payment was also treated as a tax, so it was not wrong to say that it was a government office.
If it was mutual aid, it was mutual aid.
The adventurer’s guild was able to receive quite a lot of budget by hiring mercenaries belonging to the branch, and the government office was able to solve the problem without hiring high-quality personnel such as knights.
“According to the information I received, the sheep in the village keep disappearing… Considering that it is a mountain village, I think a pack of wolves may have migrated nearby. The government office said it would be nice to root out the cause as much as possible.”
“That means… you can handle it as you like, right?”
“That’s how it is.”
As Damian said, Hassan took off his reading glasses.
If you pretend, you pretend.
You’ll have to go there to find out what happened, but usually these kinds of requests end up as trivial things than you think.
In addition, it was very likely that the whole story of the case would be of the trivial type, so that there would be no problem even if it was properly decorated and submitted.
As it turned out, it was at the level of stealing sheep from a nearby village or that a person from the same village stole the sheep.
In addition, as even the new human race (?) called adventurers from the other world are active in this world, there are things like crazy adventurers killing sheep and so on in Terra Kingdom.
“I wonder if it would be enough to have an assortment that is barely avoidable. Of course, it should bring results that will satisfy both the villagers and the government office.”
“Not bad.”
“How is it? Would you like to try?”
And the moment Hassan puts the parchment document he had handed out into his bosom at the same time as Hassan questions Damien’s words.
[Notice: The quest < The Town Where the Sheep Disappeared > has occurred!]
[Notification: Do you accept the quest?]
Soon, the notification sound of the quest rang out in front of Damian’s eyes, and the contents written on the parchment papers came to mind clearly. it started.
It was the first mission of a gold class adventurer.
“I’ll be right back, Hassan.”
“Good luck.”
Before long, Damian stepped out of the adventurer’s guild.
* * *
“This way.”
Damian looked up, examining the parchment Hassan had handed him.
I was in the thick of it.
< Terra > is one of the busiest cities in the Eastern Continent and is also called the center of the East due to its geographical advantage!
However, considering that the eastern continent is mostly mountainous, and most of the eastern countries are small kingdoms with only one castle.
In fact, it could be said that it was very natural that Terra, the only one with a plain, was considered the center of the East.
The fact that it was a city was, in fact, normal.
Just looking at the place Demian is going through now, there are almost no human beings, and the place he is heading to has to go through many narrow roads and single roads.
It was because it was not difficult to guess how mountainous the eastern part of the Arsia continent was.
[Notice: New location information has been updated!]
[Current location: Sellars Valley 3]
[Notice: World map information has been updated!]
“Jeop. It’s too far.”
Damian licked his lips while looking at the information on the minimap where he was currently located.
It was too far away to be a remote place.
Conneil Village is located somewhere on the watershed between Terra, the center of the East, and the Principality of Parma, called the < Ivory Tower of Truth >.
And when Damian saw the location of Conneil Village, which was not even visible on the map, he was able to realize why Terra’s government office had sent an official letter requesting cooperation.
It was because the current head of the knights in charge of the northeast of the kingdom was away at the order of King < Aphelios de Friedrich Terra III >, and the nature of Choneil village, which had to cross several mountains, cost a lot.
“It’s a flaw that I don’t have any equipment…”
Tirling!
Damian rubbed his chin while looking at the status window that appeared in front of him.
It was an empty interface.
Now that you have just gotten away from the Whispering Island and obtained your adventurer’s license.
Unlike other gold-class adventurers, Damian couldn’t find any equipment to speak of, and at the same time, he couldn’t even find a party to speak of.
It was separate from the trashy propensity level of -9999999999.
In this harsh world of mercenaries, where equipment is the measure of credibility, no one would accept a novice adventurer who was virtually naked.
Even more, it was good to say that the probability of being able to save a party for the mission converged to 0, wearing only black drawstring pants with infinite durability and a wild boar head.
“Rather than wasting time looking for a party, it’s better to do it alone. cancer. It’s not because I couldn’t find a party…”
Every day!
No matter how much AC is a game where individual physicality is important, and Damian has a record of even taking first place in the arena rankings in the past.
He, too, did not have any tricks to overcome this difficulty.
“If I can’t find a party… I can create party members, right?”
flash!
And the moment when Damian, who had lost his appetite, suddenly snapped his finger as if he had remembered something important… “
كيف بحق الجحيم يجب …أن أفعل لاستدعاكتكوت….”
Woo woo woo woo woo!
Soon, a geometric patterned magic circle appeared in front of Damian’s eyes, and at the same time, a small amount of mana began to leak from his palm.
It was a summoning magic circle.
