Volume 10 Chapter 267

To the Adventurers’ Guild

We arrived at the royal capital of Glendale.
Although there is an adventurers’ guild in the territory of my father, who is a count, it seems that the guild in the capital city receives overwhelmingly more requests.
Furthermore, when adventurers accept requests, whether they can accept them or not depends on their adventurer rank and which guild they registered with.
For example, when adventurers registered in a town try to accept the same request as adventurers from elsewhere, if their ranks are the same, the local adventurers are prioritized.
So if we were to register, we thought it would be best to do so at the adventurers’ guild in the capital city.
Usually, novice adventurers register with the local guild before traveling to other lands. This is because even defeating monsters during their travels can increase their adventurer rank.
Moreover, re-registration with the guild is possible while traveling.
They can choose to operate from the newly registered guild as their base, or they can venture to another location.
Being an adventurer is a free occupation.
However, there are various conditions for re-registration, so we decided to register as adventurers in the royal capital from the beginning.
Even after becoming adventurers, we still have two more years left to attend the Ifrus Magic Academy.
There are students who register as adventurers while attending the magic academy, but they all register at the adventurer guild outpost located within the academy.
This is because when you register as an adventurer, if you don’t accept requests corresponding to your adventurer rank within a certain period, your registration will be revoked.
However, if you register at the guild outpost within the academy, your registration won’t be revoked even if you don’t accept requests for a long time.
Therefore, most of the students at the magic academy complete their adventurer registration at the outpost.
The Elnor family has many members who can use teleportation magic and high-speed movement.
So traveling to and from the adventurers’ guild in the royal capital is not a problem at all.
Furthermore, our class has already completed all the required curriculum at the academy last year, so the number of classes we need to take at the academy has decreased.
In other words, we had free time.
We could expect to receive requests at the guild several times a week.
For these reasons, we decided to come to the adventurers’ guild in the royal capital.
「This is the adventurers’ guild in the royal capital」
「It’s as big as Haruto’s house!」
Luna and Hakua exclaimed as they looked up at the adventurers’ guild building. It seemed to be their first time visiting the royal capital of Glendale.
The building, about the same size as my mansion at the magic academy or slightly larger, was right in front of us.
This is the headquarters of the Glendale Adventurers’ Guild. It oversees all adventurers’ guilds nationwide and also functions as a regular guild.
Therefore, there are many people coming and going.
Although I have visited the adventurers’ guild in my father’s territory before, this place seemed more lively.
There were plenty of people around who looked like adventurers.
It’s quite exciting.
Today, I can become the adventurer I’ve been interested in since my previous world.
「Alright, let’s go」
「Yes」
With Tina and the rest of my family and comrades, totaling seventeen people and one beast, we entered the guild building.
　──＊＊＊──
「Here you go. This is your guild card」
「Oh, thank you very much」
I received a guild card from the beautiful receptionist at the guild, with a large F written in the upper right corner.
……Strange.
Without any issues, I completed my adventurer registration and obtained the guild card.
Obtained it… …It feels strange.
I came all this way to become an adventurer, successfully registered, and received the guild card.
I achieved my goal, yet something feels lacking.
—That’s right, the typical event didn’t occur.
Even though I, who may seem weak at first glance, walked with over ten beautiful women and girls, I expected to be approached by senior adventurers.
But that didn’t happen at all.
「Are you dissatisfied with the F rank after all?」
Tina asked, noticing my seemingly dissatisfied expression.
「Well, it’s not exactly that……」
「Haruto-sama, some of the men around here were having inappropriate feelings toward Haruto-sama, so I’ve gone ahead and hypnotized all of them to prevent any unnecessary trouble」
Kikyo whispered to me.
This…… Is this her doing?!
She was responsible for us not being approached by other adventurers. She hypnotized everyone inside this guild building except for my companions.
While it’s normal to be thankful for avoiding trouble, since I’ve come all the way to this different world, I also wanted to experience the typical events a little.
「Thank you, Kikyo」
For now, I thanked Kikyo and patted her head.
Even though tails aren’t visible to ordinary people when Kikyo and Yoko are in human form, I can see them with my magic vision.
Her tail behind her seemed to be swaying as if asking for praise.
「Why are you praising Mother, Master?」
Yoko asked curiously.
Even Yoko, who is also a nine-tailed fox, didn’t seem to notice that Kikyo had used hypnotic magic.
「Thanks to Kikyo, we managed to avoid trouble. It’s a way of expressing gratitude」
Probably, no adventurer in this guild could resist Kikyo’s hypnotic magic.
As a sage, I listened to Kikyo’s story, traced her weakened magic to some extent, and managed to confirm that the hypnotic magic was indeed activated.
There shouldn’t be anyone who could notice they were under the influence of hypnotic magic.
By the way, there are magical tools to resist hypnotic magic.
I saw a party of higher-ranked adventurers pass by us, and they seemed to be equipped with tools to counteract hypnotic magic—
Even those seemed to be ineffective.
The magical beings inside the tools that resist hypnotic magic were surprised by Mai and Mei’s existence and couldn’t work properly.
So, even the higher-ranked adventurers equipped with tools to resist hypnotic magic couldn’t resist Kikyo’s hypnosis.
Thus, we completed our adventurer registration without any trouble at all.
It’s not like I want to get involved in trouble, so this is fine.
Yeah…… But, clichés are important, aren’t they?
Feeling somewhat unsatisfied, we left the adventurers’ guild.
