Chapter 36
Chapter 36: The One who Exceeds A-Rank ( side Io )
My na is Io Akos .
I ca to the Adventurer Guild that I was affiliated today .
I called the woman at the reception her na, and signed at the issued docunts .
「Yes, I have accepted it . With this, Io-san’s B-Rank promotion procedures have been completed」
「Thank you very much」
Right, I ca for the adventurer rank promotion procedure today .
I was C-Rank for along ti, but I was finally able to rise to B-Rank .
I received the certificate for B-Rank .
I want to let Kakeru-san see this .
When I ca out of the guild, I was called out to imdiately .
「Io-chan, it’s been a while」
「Carla-san」
The person who called out to was an adult woman, Carla-san . She was a person that had taken care of very much when I was a rookie adventurer .
「You went up to B-Rank huh, congrats」
「Thank you very much」
「I’ve heard of your achievents recently . Orycuto Killer Io, it had beco famous to so you know」
「I-I didn’t kill it you know」
「I know . There’s no way that monster could be killed right . But it’s true that they’re saying that you’re mining Orycudite everyday right . Then, it couldn’t be helped being called by that」
I was a little embarrassed .
Orycuto Killer Io .
It’s surprising that I would have an amazing second na like that .
「And to you, I have sothing to request」
「A request, desu ka?」
「Yes, party invitation . Actually, I had accepted a big job, and I wanted a magician for the strategy」
「Was it like that . E〜to……」
I was a little troubled .
I am in a party with Kakeru-san right now . Entering another person’s party, I feel bad with Kakeru-san .
That’s why, I was thinking of how to refuse desu .
「Please, ne」
Carla-san held my hand .
It was a senpai adventurer that had taken care of before, it was a little, hard to refuse .
「Only this ti, ne」
「If that is so……」
Only once . With that condition, I decided to enter the party .
☆
In the town’s outskirts, we gathered with the party mbers Carla-san was with .
There was two n there .
One was carrying a large sword on his back, and the other had two long swords in his waist .
Both of them were famous adventurers .
「I am Alexis, looking forward on you」
「I’m Harry」
「You know the two of them right」
Carla-san said that naturally .
Of course I know them . Alexis-san and Harry-san, was an A-Rank adventurer like Carla-san, and they were the ace-like adventurers in Roizen .
I was a little nervous .
「E〜to, Io desu, Io Akos」
「I know you, you killed the Orycuto being sold recently right」
「That’s assuring . I’m looking forward」
「Then, I’ll start explaining」
The leader, Alexis, lead the team .
「A dragon’s child had strayed nearby」
「Dragon desu ka」
I was surprised .
Dragon . That was a legendary creature that even kids know about .
Swords and magic wouldn’t pass through it’s hard scales, in so cases, it was a creature that is needs hundreds of n to subjugate .
「It’s the child of that . In the information the witnesses and requester gave, it wasn’t that large」
「Was that so」
「But, even if it was a child, it’s still a dragon . That’s why, the request ca to us A-Rank adventurers」
「That’s alright though . Very recently, you know that accident that a lot of undead monsters appeared right . The magician that was on our party had injuries during that and haven’t healed . And when I was thinking what should I do, that was the ti I saw Io-chan」
「It was like that desu」
「And then, about how to fight it . You’re Orycuto Killer, so you’re good at lightning magic right」
「Yes」
「Then basically, Harry and I would with close combat, so you should cover us with magic . Carla is support and recovery as usual」
A simple eting . An orthodox strategy .
When that was decided, we departed from Roizen .
Along the roads, we walked south .
We walked more than expected . We departed during around lunch, and we arrived around the evening .
「It’s here」
Harry-san said .
Footprints on the ground, and claw marks on trees and rocks .
Amid the increasing tension, we encountered the dragon .
It was a dragon with huge wings that was one size larger than the mountain cow that I often et recently .
It’s true that it was small for a dragon, and might be a child .
「Let’s go Harry!」
「Yeah!」
Alexis-san and Harry-san jumped out, and slashed at the dragon with large sword and twin swords .
I chanted magic .
「Kuwa!」
Alexis-san’s large sword was parried by the dragon’s claws, was hit from the sides by its tail and blown away .
「Ku! Harry!」
「Leave it to !」
Harry-san covered, and Carla-san ran to Alexis-san .
Receiving recovery magic, Alexis-san stood up .
「Attack boost also」
「There you go」
When Carla-san casted magic, Alexis-san’s large sword shone white .
And again, jumps towards the dragon .
Alexis-san and Harry-san was close combat, and I covered fire with magic .
If one of the two vanguards get injured, he falls back and after receiving Carla-san’s recovery, return again .
That combination felt that they were very used to it, and was able to fight equally with the dragon .
As expected of an A-Rank adventurer, Roizen’s ace, I thought .
I thought, but……this is……sohow……
(If it was Kakeru-san……)
While fighting, what I thought about was 「What would’ve happened if it was Kakeru-san」 .
The combination of Alexis-san and Harry-san is amazing . Large sword and twin swords, both power and speed complents each other, and covers their weakness .
But, both power and speed, Kakeru-san was higher .
He overwheld the Orycuto that had abnormal high-speed recovery and hardness with the sword too .
「How is it? The two of them are amazing right」
Carla-san said beside .
She said it as if to brag, and it felt that she was proud of it .
「Both of their skills are very good, and because they’re together for long years they have excellent combination too」
「Yes, if feels like that desu」
I think it was as Carla-san said .
I would have also……if it was half a month ago, I would’ve thought of it like that .
But right now, after knowing about Kakeru-san, I felt it wasn’t enough .
「Haa〜……haa〜……we won」
After the fierce battle, the dragon collapsed and stopped moving .
Carla-san and I were rear guards so we were fine, but Alexis-san and Harry-san was quite tattered .
「Oi, aren’t I great」
「Yeah」
「Defeating a dragon with only one party, it’s the second ti with this huh . Might get Dragon Slayer title so ti soon」
「If that happens we’ll get respected」
Alexis-san and Harry-san heightened their tension while talking like that .
They defeated a dragon, so I could understand their feelings .
But, if it was Kakeru-san .
If it was Kakeru-san, even if he defeated a dragon, it would feel just like 「It’s normal」, I thought .
Even when he crushed the Orycuto into pieces, even the ti when he defeated the Hell’s Emperor, even the ti when he claid a princess his own .
Even if he did sothing great, Kakeru-san had an 「It’s normal」-like face every ti .
And when Kakeru-san was like that he was super cool .
Doing an amazing thing, and not being proud or modest with it, as if it was normal .
That was very cool, I thought .
「Io-chan also, do your best」
「Yeah . For soone who just went up to B-Rank, you’re good」
「If it’s okay with you, you want to enter our party?」
「What do you think, Io-chan . I think that with our combination, we can go pretty well」
「I’m sorry」
It was in front of Carla-san who had taken care of , but I answered promptly .
