At first, discipline is important

"Hey, girls. Please help me today!"

"Yes, nice to meet you."

Merely heading to a dungeon city would be boring, so Teto and I received a request to escort a merchant caravan headed in that direction.

During the year I was on a detour, I had to take on the role of escort several times after helping people who were attacked by monsters and thieves, and although I didn't go through the guild, I did have some experience with escort requests.

Teto and I received a request to be escorts at the guild, and when we showed our guild cards to the client, he looked surprised.

"Young ladies, you're so young, are you still a C-rank at your age?"

"It just went up though."

"Well, you're really good."

He didn't seem to look down on me, even though I was dressed as a wizard with a hood pulled over my eyes, which made me feel relieved.

Then, as the adventurers who received the escort request began to gather and introduce themselves to each other, a group of adventurers looked at us with an unpleasant look and attacked us.

"Hey, what will you do if a woman and child participate in an escort request and fail? Or do you have the courage to ask other adventurers to protect you and complete the request?"

Under the hood, I let out a deep sigh at the obvious condescending attitude.

Among the adventurers, there are those who have a male-dominated mindset.

It is true that in the world of adventurers, it is a male society where the ratio of male adventurers is higher.

However, there are some excellent female adventurers, and I wonder what's going on with my fellow adventurers who don't stop even though escort requests are about to start and they need to cooperate with each other.

"Hey, say something. Little brat!"

Okay, let's buy that fight.

"Tet"

"Yes, it is!"

As I gave instructions as if I was used to it, Teto punched the complaining adventurer in the stomach.

While everyone was stunned as no one could stop the movement, the person who was hit fell to the ground, holding his stomach as the impact penetrated through his leather armor.

I point my cane at such a person.

"Well then――"Heal""

The person who was hit in the stomach by Tet with recovery magic eased his pain and looked up.

After being punched in the abdomen, he seemed to lose consciousness for a moment and looked stunned.

"Ugh, I..."

"Because you made an unfair accusation against us, Tet picked up the fight and you were beaten."

"Hey, good job!"

"That's right! That's it!"

The other adventurer attacks, and this time, Teto's left straight catches him in the face.

This time, the opponent had also strengthened his body and was ready, so Teto punched with even more force.

As a result, the other adventurer bounced once on the ground and fell down.

"Okay, you're alive. As expected from an adventurer――"Heal""

The other person recovered and got up again, looking at me with frightened eyes.

"W-what? You guys..."

"Well, now you know what we're capable of."

Saying that, I direct my magical power towards the adventurers who looked down on me.

That made the other person tremble, so after I finished intimidating them, my friends were blaming me for it.

After that, the leader adventurer responsible for this escort request, who was watching us, smiled and spoke to me and Tet.

"It was a disaster. You're hiding your magical power, right?"

"Yeah, right. How did you know?"

"I felt like it was a small amount for a wizard. That's why I decided that he was holding back. Well, I guess the only person who can judge this is a C-rank adventurer."

That's what the senior adventurer said and kindly taught me.

In other words, D's despise him, and C and above don't know how much magical power he has, but he seems to be thought to have the ability to match his rank.

"Thank you. I've only been an adventurer for about a year, so I don't have much experience, so you taught me a lot of things, which was very helpful."

"It doesn't matter. I'm relying on that recovery magic while I'm on a request."

After a short conversation, it was time for the caravan to depart, so our escort request began.

The escort request, scheduled for three days, went smoothly.

Occasionally, monsters attack, but each person responds well and defeats them.

However, the first adventurer that Teto and I trained was not only wary of those around him, but was also wary of me and Teto, which caused him to get scolded by other adventurers and become mentally exhausted. It seems so.

Also, when I was eating at the camp with instant soup prepared using [Creation Magic], other adventurers and escort merchants asked me for soup, and I sold it for 3 copper coins per cup. is what happened.

At night, we take turns sleeping in our tents while keeping our guard up.

The only thing I was dissatisfied with with the escort request was that I couldn't take a bath by magically storing hot water in a bathtub that Tet had created by manipulating the ground, but only using the clean spell ``Clean''.

Things like this limit our actions, so I think it's better to do it with Tet alone than to do it in a group.
