After capturing the masterminds of Rebellion, Zebra and Mordea, and their members, we returned safely to the Adventurer’s Guild. And for the time being, they are thrown into a prison in the basement of the guild.
“The fact that the Adventurer’s Guild rules this city means that they will be judged here.”
“Perhaps it will be a death penalty?”
“I’m sure the executives will end with that. Anyways, that’s not something we need to worry about.”
“Un.”
It is said that from now on, the checkpoints when going out of the city will be very strict. Probably because there are still remnants of Rebellion in the city, and this is to prevent them from escaping.
The guild leader said that he wanted to ask me a lot of questions when we returned, so I thought it would be troublesome. But fortunately, I was not pursued deeply. Well, given that the deputy guild leader was an enemy executive, there might be other people in the guild who were cooperating with him. In this way, there was no time for him to question me.
After that, we were able to receive a considerable amount of compensation. According to Fana and Anje, this is the highest compensation they have ever received. However, for some reason, I was the only one who was paid twice as much as the two of them.
“Why though?”
“It’s because you have done a good job.”
“Un. There’s no doubt about that.”
While we were talking, Gain and Emily came over.
“I’m sorry both of you. I’m late.”
“Do excuse us, okay~. As you know, the guild is in a mess right now.”
““……?””
Fana and Anje tilted their heads in confusion, wondering what Emily and Gain are talking about. Seeing them that way, Gain asked, “Did you forget?”
“It’s the result of the exam.”
“For A-rank adventurer, remember?”
“Speaking of which….”
“A lot of things happened, so I forgot. Or rather, did the exam even happen in the first place? There was an irregularity, and the one who defeated the Red Dragon was Reus, who didn’t even take the exam.”
I just dealt the final blow in the end though.
“Yeah. Well, to be honest, it’s hard to say that the test itself was successful. However, given the performance of the two of you during the battle, we decided that there was no need to impose a retest.”
“Right. We are sure that you guys will pass anyway.”
“Then, that means….…”
Gain took out a piece of parchment with some letters written on it and handed it to the two of them.
“Of course, you both passed. Congratulations. As fellow A-rank adventurers, I hope you guys can continue to work hard from now on.”
“Congratulations! If you show that paper to the receptionist, I think you’ll get a new guild card.”
Apparently, the parchment looked like a passing certificate.
“Congratulations Fana-oneechan, Anje-oneechan.”
“And, this is for you.”
“……Eh?”
For some reason, a parchment is also given to me. It was exactly the same as Fana and Anje’s, the only difference is that the name part had “Reus” in it.
“What do you mean? I didn’t take the exam though.”
“It’s a special case. It is possible to be promoted to A-rank without taking the exam only if the guild leader approves it. Due to your great performance this time, thinking that it would be a shame to keep you in B rank, the guild leader made a special decision to promote you even though he was busy.”
Eeeeehhhhh…….
What a thankless nuisance.
“As expected of Master. I mean, it’s a matter of course.”
“That’s great.”
I had no choice but to receive the pass certificate. Then I went to the reception window for B-rank adventurers with Fana and Anje. We were then issued an A-rank guild card.
“Wow, it’s gold colored!”
“Un. It’s sparkling.”
The guild card seems to have a different color depending on the rank. It was silver when it was B-rank, but gold when it was A-rank.
“Let’s take some A-rank request.”
“Clever idea”
Leaving me completely withered, the two of them exitedly headed to the window for A-rank adventurers. Since I’m being held by Fana, I’m inevitably taken with her.
By the way, if there is even one person of that rank in the same party, it seems that it is possible to use a dedicated window. And apparently, all the A-rank counters were private rooms. When we entered, there was a sofa, and on the table was a request for A-rank compiled in a booklet.
Shortly after, a beautiful woman comes in, she then served us tea and sweets.
“It looks like we can take our time and choose our request here.”
“Un, it’s very satisfactory.”
