Two weeks had passed since Halt and his comrades registered as adventurers.
They received commissions from the Royal Capitals Adventurer Guild day after day, and finally, today was the day they would be taking the advancent examination.
The purpose of F, the lowest rank, was to gauge whether or not the people could beco adventurers, so the required guild points for advancing to E-rank was low. It was also relatively easy to take the advancent examination.
The adventurers could take the advancent exam in a month or so after receiving suitable commissions and accumulating enough guild points.
Thinking of this, it could be said that Halts team had been quite fast.
This was because they received a lot of commissions that didnt provide good monetary compensation but gave them more guild points instead such commissions were mainly being avoided by the other adventurers.
Well finally graduate from the lowest rank, ow!
Being an adventurer is quite hard.
Yeah, I didnt expect it to be this harsh.
rdie, Luke and Ryuushin were reminiscing about the past two weeks.
Their mindset was not because they had to fight strong monsters. If it was just about battles against monsters, then all the mbers here would easily pass as A-ranks.
Cleaning the underground canals Ugh, I never want to do that again.
Leaffa shivered as she recalled that instance.
Halt accepted a commission to clean the underground canals yesterday, and it had caused quite a huge trauma to the entire family.
Yeah, I totally agree.
Particularly the stench, that had been horrible.
Hmm, I thought I was gonna die.
Youko and Shiro apparently suffered the most because of their keen sense of sll.
Still, I think we did well in the lower class!
Yup, youre right. You can now judge in an instant whether a flower blooming by the street can sell or not.
Sylph replied to Lunas comnt.
I discovered this on my way here.
Oh, Luna. That's a showy babys breath! You can sell that for 300 spina.
Sylph, the Wind Spirit King herself, rembered how much this grass was worth which was less than the cost of a single al.
She could now judge whether a grass is just plain weed or a dicinal plant.
Even Sylph-sama has beco quite knowledgeable about dicinal plants. Has this been your goal all along, Halt-sama?
Hmm, I didnt think that far ahead, but Im glad that everyone learned a lot.
Most of the Ernol family mbers were royalty or else belonging to special races, so most of them werent familiar with the knowledge of humans.
Halts comrades could probably take the advancent examination earlier if they slay monsters. F-rank monsters were equivalent to rubbish for these people, after all.
However, doing that would be aningless.
They had to gain the common knowledge of civilians and lower rank adventures that could never be found in the textbooks and grimoires of the magical academy.
Halt hoped that his family could acquire such knowledge.
And he was pretty pleased with the outco.
Mr. Halt, today is the day of the advancent examination, finally!
The receptionist lady of the adventurer guild called out to Halt.
Starting with her. all the guild mbers were fond of Halt and the others, especially since they had steadily dealt with the commissions that the other adventurers were unwilling to fulfill.
Yes. We are under your care.
I will guide you to the examination site. Please follow , everyone.
The entire House of Ernol followed behind the receptionist lady.
It was a usual sight in the Royal Capital Guild, and even the adventurers had already accepted it as such.
It was because Kikyou had been gradually and steadily brainwashing the adventurers and the guild staff everyday.
Thanks to her, they didnt encounter any huge problems even if Halt, Luke and Ryuushin, these three guys, accompanied 16 gorgeous beauties and beautiful girls inside and around the guild.
They arrived at the examination site.
It was a relatively huge, round arena.
A burly, skinhead guy stood at the center.
So, Halt and his comrades, huh. Im Johann, a B-rank adventurer, your senior and proctor of you advancent examination. Nice to et you.
The pleasure is ours.
Johann extended his hand, so Halt shook it.
You guys are quite famous, you know. You guys are courteous despite just starting out as adventurers, and you even take the initiative to take on jobs that other rookies didnt want to.
Thank you very much.
Even regarding monster subjugation we also received reports that you already defeated several goblins, so I guess you guys are quite powerfulSo
Johann threw the scroll he was holding to the floor of the arena
Five slis appeared.
Johann used the [Scroll of Sealed Monsters], a scroll that could seal the monsters that had been captured beforehand.
This is a special service for you. If you defeat these slis, Ill acknowledge your advancent to E-rank.
So we just have to defeat so sli, ow?
Waaayy too easy!
We wont have any problems with stronger monsters.
Itll be a landslide victory against the slis for sure.
rdie, Hakua, Youko, Ryuushin were underestimating the jiggling smile in front of hem.
It was only natural that they would look down on these sli since they could defeat majins.
Well, well. Sir Johann here gave us an exception and agreed to promote us if we defeat them, so everyone, lets give our best!
A guy smirked after saying that.
The only person who noticed that smirk was the maid who had been constantly paying close attention to him.
The maid was bothered about that grin, so she tried probing the sli monsters.
It was then that she realized.
These sli monsters had been strengthened by the mans mana.
In truth, these sli had been tad by the worlds strongest sage, and they had been strengthened to the point that it was unbelievable.
The sage caught wind that Johann would depart to hunt sli for the advancent examination, so he ordered the monsters to get themselves captured.
The mans mana was cleverly hidden within the slis mana.
If not for this maid who had been exposed to that guys mana from when he was young, nobody would probably notice this.
The maid decided not to attack these slis.
They wouldnt be able to pass the advancent examination if they didnt defeat these monsters, but they were anything but ordinary after being strengthened by that mans mana.
She decided it would be best to monitor the situation.
(Just what is Halt-sama thinking? He said he wanted to beco an S-rank as soon as possible, and yet he raised the level of his own advancent exam )
Without any regard to the doubting maid, Johann gave the signal to start the advancent examination.
I want you to show how you move as a party. I want everyone to participate in the attacks as much as possible. Then Begin!
The battle with the strongest slis had begun.
