“Uhh…I should go to the guild then . ”
The first thing I did upon entering the town was to search for the guild .
‘Over there . It says guild!’
The slime pointed me to a guild sign .
As always, slimes were always better at finding things .
‘Well done . ’
So saying, I entered the guild .
I would accept a random quest that seemed safe .
That’s what I thought as I headed to the counter…
“Is this your first time here? Then please get registered at the counter over there . ”
I already had a guild card, but I was asked to get registered .
But I was sure that guild cards could be used regardless of location .
“I already have a guild card . Do I still need to register?”
“Yes . Some towns require it . It is necessary to know which Adventurers are currently in the city in case of an emergency . It will be too late to gather information after a monster attack . ”
“Alright . I’ll register then . ”
“Thank you . By the way, you may be rejected if it’s determined that you are too weak to fight for Kiria!”
…Are you serious?
Did I come to the wrong town?
I wondered about this as I headed for the counter .
“Do you wish to register?”
“Yeah . You can reject me mercilessly if it seems dangerous . ”
I answered to the man at the counter .
As long as I say that, I would not get through if I was too weak .
…But hadn’t the manager said that Kiria was a safe town with weak monsters?
If that was the case, it seemed highly unlikely that I could fail .
“I’ve never heard anyone ask to be rejected before . Well, it’s good to be cautious . …In any case, show me your guild card .
“Right . ”
I said as I handed it to him .
“Job…Tamer?”
He looked at the card and then at me with a suspicious expression .
Apparently, Tamers were rare here as well .
“Are Tamers disqualified?”
“Not at all . But Tamers are simply too weak . They generally don’t pa.s.s . …Uh, are you going to use that wolf?”
“This slime is also part of my team . ”
“Slime? …Compared to that wolf, it should be practically useless… But, uh…I guess I’ll write it down . ”
So saying, the man started to scribble on a sheet of paper .
Then he stamped my guild card and handed it back to me .
“Alright . Registration is complete . You can now go on quests . ”
“…Huh? After all that talk about capabilities, I a.s.sumed there would be some kind of test…”
“There are times that we require tests . But B-Rank Scouts are automatically accepted . ”
…I had heard it was convenient to be a B-Rank Scout, but I didn’t know how convenient .
“Is it that great of a certificate to have?”
“Aye . It is said that the chances of your entire party being killed will go down to a fifth by just having one of them . ”
One fifth . That’s amazing .
Indeed, you could prevent ambushes with the slimes’ scouting abilities, which would make things considerably safer .
You would also have enough time to run away if it was a strong enemy . So one fifth was probably not an exaggeration .
“…I know . Since you just arrived here, why don’t you accept a guild quest?”
“A guild quest?”
“Aye . We’re looking for personnel to help find the locations of strong monsters, but not many people are good at that . So you would be perfect as a B-Rank Scout . ”
…Hmm .
So they had such quests, huh?
“You said you didn’t have enough people, so there will be others doing this quest too?”
“Aye . Even if you are a B-Rank Scout, we can’t let you go searching for monsters on your own . But the other members we have gathered are all veterans . ”
I see .
It would be my first time fighting in this area, so it might not be a bad thing to practice here with people who knew what they were doing .
…But on the other hand, it seemed dangerous to join a party with strangers .
I should meet them first and see if I can trust them .
And even if I can, I should still remain cautious and use my slimes .
