Its been a month since I joined the Hagnut Guild.
Mr. Tay. Im back.
Thud.
The adventurer put the loot from his quest on the counter with a proud face. It seems that he had easily completed the quest I entrusted to him and returned.
Successful as always. Good work.
Mr.Tay suggested that quest, theres no way I could fail. By the way, Whats my na?
Lets see. It must be in the register.
I found the adventurers na in the personnel register and laughed.
Thank you for telling nicely. Mr. Dark.
Bingo.
Why did you do that, though?
Mr. Tay. You know what? I didnt fail a single quest this month.
Of course, I knew that, but I showed a slightly surprised expression, saying that I didnt know.
Is that so? You mustve improved a lot.
No, no. Its just that Mr.Tay entrusted quests with the highest chance of success.
It might not look like it, but until recently I was a low tier adventurer who couldnt even afford proper equipnt. But now, people are looking at differently, its all because of you Mr.Tay.
Dark was rubbing his head while wearing a grateful expression.
His words were true. Ive been evaluating every single of the adventurers paraters and handing them quests with the highest rate of success.
Since my early days, Ive been confident in my ability to assess peoples abilities.
Then Dark suddenly spoke up.
Uh. I wanted to pay back, so I told the people around to visit Mr. Taylord of the Hagnut Guild.
So thats why the number of adventurers visiting suddenly surged.
Isnt that good? If the guild receives more adventurers thanks to Mr. Tay, youll receive a promotion right?
I shrugged that off.
Ill take my leave now. Lets grab a drink soti Mr.Tay
Yeah. Thank you for your hard work.
Dark disappeared while humming a song along with the quest rewards.
While Dark was leaving I muttered
Human Resources.
The holographic window appeared.
[Level: Trainee/Next level: 1st-year employee.]
[Personnel points required until promotion: 45/100]
45 huh?
As I was staring at the personnel records, I heard Sains voice.
So even Mr.Tay can look dumb.
Yeah?
Sotis you just stare off into the distance. Is sothing on your mind?
Oops.
She mustve noticed looking at the personnel records. I must be careful.
I answered calmly.
Yeah. I was just wondering what to eat for lunch.
Huh. Lies.
I heard what Mr. Dark said earlier. Certainly, the number of adventurers visiting the Hagnut Guild has increased a lot these days. Many of them are looking for Mr. Tay.
Would you like to take an incentive?
Sain said in a soft voice.
Not only Mr. Dark but all the adventurers Mr.Tay is in charge of have a high success rate. No, if Im not mistaken I think everyone succeeded. For this month.
Because all the tasks I gave were for D-class adventurers. Instead of having a low risk, they usually have a high success rate.
Is that the case?
Mr.Tay. Next ti, deal with a C-class adventurer. I will hand over so of my clients to you.
Well, that was to be expected.
Actually, I was waiting for this to happen.
I laughed on the inside, but on the outside, I tried to act a little bit stern.
Why ? Its only been a month since I ca here.
The order in which they co in doesnt matter. People dont rise up the rankings just because of the ti theyve spent with the guild .
She deliberately glanced at Hans.
Poor Hans just smiled when Sain and his eyes t.
She looked back at and said.
If you have a good success rate even for the C-class, it will simply an that your recent success wasnt just luck.
It would be better to accept it at this point. Although from experience, this seed a bit troubleso.
Yeah. Ill try.
Thats a good answer. Dont worry. I will assist you with a few of the first ones.
Thank you.
Sain nodded and went back.
I looked at her back and opened the personnel register.
It is difficult to determine a specific pattern because the allotnts of personnel evaluation were a bit random. However, they had one thing in common. It happens every ti I outperform other receptionists. That ans
If I succeed with the C-class adventurers, a lot of points will co in.
What happens when I am promoted to 1st-year employee?
My heart was pounding. Just like I did while receiving my first paycheck.
After lunch break that day, Hans confronted .
Hey. I heard rumors.
Okay.
What okay?
How are you performing so well?
Ha! Are you getting jealous? So being successful angered you?
Hans. There was a guy like him in my company. For reasons I couldnt understand, he would fight whenever he saw . Well, after only 6 months, he left the company with tears. Why do you think he left?
Suddenly, thinking of the old days, I heard Hans voice.
Hey, thats it. You said you were going to deal with C-class adventurers?
I think so.
Fuck. Adventurers looking for the Hagnut Guild are mostly C-class. Its the best source of inco.
How did you manage to do that within a single month?!
I tried to shrug it off, but he was persistent.
I didnt ask for it, but Ms.Sain handed it over to herself.
If there is a problem, do not fight with the employee, but bring it to the team leader instead.
Employee? Team Leader?
Hans tilted his head as if he understood.
You dont have to think about it, your head will start hurting.
I could hear footsteps outside the door. That sound was obviously Sain.
I said in a slightly loud voice, so that she could listen, Lets stop. Were still in working hours.
What? Are working hours more important than this?!!
So this guy didnt notice the footsteps. This was a great opportunity.
The footsteps stopped right in front of the door. She must be listening to the conversation from outside.
I responded with a strong tone, I think thats the most important thing.
Its one of the most basic rules. I dont want to be soone who cant follow the basics.
It wasnt because Sain was listening, but it was my motto.
However, Hans beca more angry, and spoke in a rather harsh voice.
Ha! I work all day, a small break wont matter! If youre scared, just say it.
Hes the kind of guy who digs their own grave
Anyway, I am going.
Hey! Were not done yet!
I turned around. Hans grabbed my shoulder roughly. And at that mont, the lounge door opened. Sain was looking at us with a stiff face.
Please stop it. Mr.Hans.
SaMs.Sain.
Mr.Tay is right. respecting the working hours is the most basic rule.
She looked at .
Unlike when she saw Hans, she had a soft smile on her face.
Mr. Tay, go back to your desk. Im going to have a brief talk with Mr. Hans.
Yeah.
As I moved, Hanss arm fell off my shoulders.
[I got 3 HR evaluation points from Sain.]
Two birds with one stone
From that day onwards, Sain started giving one or two of her C-class adventurers.
Well, technically speaking, it is better to say that the person in charge of them is absent.
However, regular custors No, adventurers tended to consult the receptionists that they liked.
Among them, Sain was the most popular receptionist.
On the excuse that she was too busy, she politely guided so adventurers to .
The best way to reciprocate to high expectations was to perform well.
After a week like that, my HR evaluation points rose to 80.
And that mont a new ssage popped up.
[New information available: Potential]
What is this?
This personnel record wont let get bored.
I heard Sains voice while looking at the record.
Mr. Tay. Did you do the sa kind of job before joining the Hagnut Guild?
No.
Just luck cant explain your high success rate. Even my clients fail quests once in a while.
Thats because you are dealing with B-class adventurers too. The difficulty would be dramatically higher, of course.
Sain laughed.
I knew very well why she laughed, sothing about B-class adventurers not being preparedblah blah.
Just call Sain when were in private.
But it feels good to call by position within the guild.
Because there is sothing cool about itbut nobody thinks about it that way.
Just call Sain when were alone.
Sain folded her arms, and kept insisting that I call her Sain.
She was only giving advice until recently, which is very natural, but this sudden developnt worried a bit.
This woman is usually very clever and stays composed.
Well. Ill think about it.
Theres nothing more pointless than explaining to a boss who isnt ready to listen.
At that ti, Hans glanced over and our eyes t. He looked at , and Sains affectionate behaviour towards , and bit his lips. It seems like hes holding a grudge against .
Sain also looked at him and asked in a soft voice.
Mr. Tay is friends with Mr. Hans, right?
No. Its worse than that.
I just swallowed the answer.
How did you two get to know each other and Why are you two friends?
Friends usually have so sort of similarity between them but the two of you have completely different personalities.
This situation was a bit familiar to . I am not simply referring to the difference in personality.
It wasnt long after I joined the company in my previous life, and I rember what my boss said about his motive for joining the company.
His motives and mine were completely different.
At that ti, I still didnt notice it because I had little social experience, but now I knew it. That it was a comparison between his and my motives. That realization made smile a bit.
It was then.
The guild door opened and two won entered. Among them, the tall woman stood in front and opened her mouth with high spirits.
Sain. Is she here!!?
Welco. Seems like you finished early this ti.
Haha. Not exactly though.
The woman said so, and looked back at her party.
At the end of my gaze I saw a small woman standing behind her.
She looked young. Is she a teenager?
A world without the Labor Laws sure is scary.
I looked at the small woman with appreciation.
She suddenly beca depressed, and then put her hood over her head.
UmmI
Then the woman in front grabbed her shoulder.
What are you so depressed about? Everyone makes mistakes.
Im sorry, Im sorry.
Im sorry., she said again in a trembling voice.
Her speech and expression were very soft. The young woman in the back seed to have made a mistake on the quest. The woman in the front is a leader who embraces such mistakes without revealing them.
I think I have seen this picture sowhere?
