Chapter 14 - The birth of an A-rank rookie Part 1

********

Is this the Adventurer's Guild... It's pretty much the same in any reincarnated world. There were only muscular men, slim women, people in armor, and those with strong personalities.

By the way, is there a reception desk?

Some people laugh at me, but I don't care.

"Sorry, I came to register as an adventurer."

"Yes, it's registration. The uniform is that of a magic school student."

"Yes, and this is a cover letter from the principal."

I took out the cover letter written on the table.

"!? That letter of introduction from Xiren... Please wait a moment."

After saying that, the receptionist then went somewhere. I can't help but wait...

A few minutes later ...

"Sorry to keep you waiting. When I contacted the guild director just now, whereupon the director said that if someone gets a recommendation from the principal, then that person should be at rank A. So can you start with rank A specifically?"

The surroundings were buzzing. It seemed overwhelming to start with an A rank. Even now,

"Hey, that kind of kid is rank A?"

"That kid must be cheating."

"No, it's a letter of introduction from Principal Xiren"

"But why the boy?"

Well, I think it's only convenient for them… because rank A can hunt high-rank monsters.

"Does not matter"

"Thank you. Can I request data for this card, just to fill in my name and age?"

"Okay ... my name is Gerrard ... I am seven years old, is it done."

"In that case, we will register with a special magic tool, so please wait a moment."

The receptionist came down again.

A few minutes later ...

"Sorry to keep you waiting. This is Gerrard's adventurer card. Now, let me explain a little about the adventurer card... If you put magical power into this card, the rank and name of the cardholder will come out. In other countries, high-ranking adventurers can enter just by showing their card when going to another country...

"This time, Mister Gerrard is ranked A, so if you are in a certain country, I think you can enter it if you show the card. Besides, this card has a saving effect. Even if it is said to be an austerity effect, it will not cross your mind. mind. The saving effect is to put the owner's money into this card. In other words, even if you don't have money in hand, if you have money on this card, you can put it in the magic tool in the shop and it will be withdrawn from the card with that price. The goal is that if you put money in the adventurer card, you don't have to put the coins in the bag."

Maybe you can use the coins you have now in various places by inserting them into this adventurer card in some way.

"That's convenient, huh? What if it's stolen?"

"No one can steal. This adventurer card reacts to the owner's magic, so it doesn't work with other people's magic."

It is a convenient magic tool.

"I see... I understand about the adventurer card."

"Is there another question you'd like to ask?"

"That's right... If I hunt a monster, but I haven't received the request, will the Guild buy it?"

"If it's not a regular request, the purchase price will drop a little, but because of the material, we'll buy it. What are the other questions?"

"Continuing the previous question... Will my rank drop if I don't accept the request?"

"That doesn't mean that you have to get requests. If the rating goes down, the rating goes down only if the behavior is bad or if you don't do any activity."

"Hmm... Thanks. Can I get the request straight away?"

Otherwise... I'm talking about why I came here.

"Yes, there are two ways to accept requests. Take the request form on the board there and take it to reception, or ask the reception directly. What do you do?"

"Then may I ask the receptionist this time?"

"It's fine, do you have any hope of accepting such a request?"

"It might be selfish, but do you have a request for a high-ranked monster with a high purchase price? I'm in trouble with money right now."

"There are three cases that meet those conditions... All of them are requests to subdue the monsters in the forest in the south. Well, it's quite dangerous, but is that okay?"

"What kind of monster is that?"

"Yes, the first is… an old tree monster called Elder Plant with a B-rank. The second is a C-rank broad wolf boss called the Black Wide Wolf, and the risk is A. The latter… It's a Nilserpent, but unlike a normal Nilserpent, it is an abnormal species, and its rank is said to reach rank S…"

"What is an abnormal species?"

"Yeah, it's an anomalous species… or a special monster also called a mutation. It can transform monsters in several ways and has abilities it didn't originally have. Well… For example, goblins mutate into an anomalous species. The original level of danger is the lowest F rank, but when it becomes an abnormal species, it has the power of rank E to rank C...

"Master Gerrard, if you accept the request for Nilserpent, please be fully prepared. Nilserpent was originally a large C-rank serpent monster. Since the danger level of being an abnormal species is unknown, this time it becomes rank A, but as I said before, it may be a monster. rank S which is also called disaster class…"

"That's right... I'll take them all."

"Which one do you want?"

"That is all"

"Yeah, yeah... Heh...!? No way, even though you're at rank A, you're a novice adventurer."

"Okay, leave it to me! I'll run if it's dangerous."

"Hmm… there's no point in saying anything in a situation like that. If it's dangerous! Please run, because it hurts to lose a high-ranking adventurer as a guild! Please come back."

"Then I'll go."

The only worthy monster is the anomalous Nilserpent… the others are minnows to me.

By the way, is that the forest in the south... It is said that there is a forest of darkness, but why? Do you know if you go?
