[side] Captain Eraso's Loss of Trust and Report of Results

 --Elasor Party, who escaped back from the dungeon.

 Naturally, they had to report today's results to the quest referral guild.

 Elasor dismissed his men and headed to the Quest Referral Guild alone.

The guild's receptionist said, "What, you failed to capture it?

 The woman at the guild's reception desk shouted in surprise.

 In response, Captain Elasor's face turns red and he raises his voice.

"I didn't fail! I just didn't finish in time for some reason!

But that dungeon is B-ranked and not very big, shouldn't an A-rank license be able to conquer it in a day?

 If you are a member of the elusive party, the B rank dungeon should have been a piece of cake.

 It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

I'm not sure what to say. You think we're weak?

 I'm not saying that," said Captain Eraso, his face turning red.

No, I'm not saying that. We just need to ask another party to help us. We're so close to the city, we'd be in trouble if the monsters overflowed.

Wait! We didn't fail! We'll definitely attack it tomorrow! So give me one day.

 Captain Eraso was ranting impatiently.

 I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one who's a fan of your work.

I'm sure you'll be happy with the results. ... For now, let's decide tomorrow. ...

 In the event that you have any kind of questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site.

 And that's when it happened.

... Oh, um. I'd like to report the results of my quest.

 It was Alto who appeared at the guild.

"Alto-san! Thank you for your hard work.

 I'm not sure what to do, but I'm sure I'll be able to do it.

 --He froze when he realized that the person in front of the receptionist was his former boss, Captain Eraso.

He froze when he realized that the man in front of the reception desk was his former boss, Captain Eraso. "..., you incompetent bastard. Did you take the quest any time ago?

 Captain Eraso looks at Artoo and says sarcastically.

"Yeah, well...

 But Artoo wasn't interested in the captain or his guild at all anymore, so he just let it slide.

 I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one.

 The woman took out from a drawer the documents for the quest that she had requested from Artoo.

 Seeing this, Captain Eraso snickers.

You've been saving the work for the Black Labyrinth, huh? Defeating E rank monsters in the first level suits you.

 Captain Elasor said in a pompous manner.

 I'm not sure what to make of that.

I'm not sure what to make of it.

 I'm not sure what to make of it.

 I'm not sure what to make of it.

Yes, I did. I'm sorry, but it's actually ....

"Actually, ...? 

You see, not only did I beat the first level, but I also beat the boss.

 After hearing Artoo's report, his sister and Captain Eraso opened their mouths in disbelief.

"Huh?

"We didn't just beat the first level, we beat the boss.

"Huh?

 After hearing Artoo's report, his sister and Captain Eraso opened their mouths.

The boss is, well, the B-rank boss on the fourth level?

 The woman at the reception desk asks back.

Yes, ....

 Alto takes out a magic stone from his backpack.

 The woman checks it out.

It's a great way to get the most out of your business. I'm not sure what to do.

I'm not sure what you mean. I'm not sure what to make of it. How is that possible?

 Captain Eraso's face turned red as he questioned.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for. I had assumed that Arto-san would be able to defeat an E-rank level monster, but I had no idea that he would be able to defeat a B-rank boss all by himself!

I'm sorry, I'm afraid I side-stepped your work.

 Alto apologizes apologetically.

No, it's okay! The sooner we attack the boss this time, the better. It is true that Captain Eraso ordered the monster defeating quest as the one to defeat the boss, but the quest was also given to Arto-san, so there is no problem. In fact, he came back unsuccessful.

 The sister said bitterly.

"You? Do you think I'm a slow learner?

 Captain Elasor was furious. In addition to the usual bad attitude, the sister did not want to deal with Ellasor, who failed to conquer the boss.

I've never imagined you were this strong, Artoo. Have you been deliberately taking only F-rank quests until now?

It's not like that, but ... it just happened to work out.

It's hard for an A-rank adventurer to conquer a B-rank dungeon by himself! This is insanely amazing!

 The older sister praised Artoo.

 And the more she does, the more Captain Eraso's face turns bright red.

What kind of cheating did you do? What the hell did you do to cheat?

 In Captain Eraso's mind, he had been harassed and cheated to take the credit.

 In order to protect his pride, his mind naturally processed the information in a way that suited him.

 --However, the sister had a word with the arrogant captain.

"Would you please shut up?

"You!

You have no right to say anything more since you failed to capture the boss even though you are ranked A. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

 I'm talking to Arto-san, who defeated the boss.

 Captain Eraso couldn't help himself and left the place.

"Oh, Artoo, you! Remember that!

 The two of them looked at him with warm eyes.

"Well. There are no more noisy people anymore. .... Alto-san, I'm going to give you a proper appraisal now, but for now, congratulations on your first boss.

Thank you, sir.

Now that you've defeated the boss and met the requirements, I'll be issuing you a D rank license.

Oh, thank you so much!

 Artoo smiles.

 If you have a D rank license, you can take on B rank jobs from the start.

I think I actually have the power of an A-rank license, since I defeated a B-rank boss by myself. But for now, I'll just call it D rank. But if you defeat the boss again, I'm sure you'll be an A rank soon!

 Artoo was happy to get such a stamp of approval from his sister.
