Volume 4 Chapter 4 Part 2
The two men gave me a firm stare but I pretended not to notice. Their names are Galt and Jill if I remember correctly……
Blythe noticed the looks they were giving me and let out a sigh before continuing.
「I’m aware of your reluctance, but I think having a Recovery Priest will benefit you. You know, Touya-dono is the one who single-handedly healed the injured in the training grounds the other day」
Blythe’s statement seemed to soften their gazes on me. Liese and Myra, in particular, gave me a more appreciative look.
「…… Are we supposed to do our investigation while babysitting him? You’re underestimating us…..」
Galt was not convinced by Blythe’s words and turned hostile.
「No, in fact it was I who asked him to escort you for your safety. I want you to follow his instructions, since he is more experienced」
The faces of Galt and Jill turned red at once listening to Blythe finish his sentence. They were blatantly agitated and clenched their fists as if they were about to hit him.
I do not think it is wise to stir things up like this, but maybe Blythe has an idea of what he is doing.
「You’re gonna let this little turd babysit us? You’re mad」
「Oh, that’s right. You’re also right about Touya-dono being younger than you, but I’ve taken his A-rank status…… into consideration. Now what do you say? Are you above A-rank?」
「A-rank!? This kid is an A-rank!?」
Galt and Jill looked at me in disbelief, so I took out my guild card and placed it on the table.
「I’m Touya, an A-rank adventurer and a Recovery Priest. Nice to meet you」
Liese picked up my guild card and checked what was written on it.
She wore an incredulous look on her face as she held the card in hands.
「…….No way…… It’s real…… and…… level, 47!?」
Myra, who was peeking in from behind Liese also had an astonished expression on her face. Galt and Jill looked at me dumbfounded when they heard my level.
「「「……….」」」
The waiting room turned quiet for a minute.
I don’t blame them for being in shock. How can a kid who is barely an adult be one of the elite adventurers in the country?
「Are you…… an elf…..?」
「No, I’m a normal human and I’m 16 years old, as it says so there. I’ve been adventuring for a few months now……」
When I answered the question posed by Myra, explaining how I am just a normal person, she looked even more confused. Then again, it’s not like this is possible to achieve easily for everyone. If it wasn’t for the 100 times experience cheat item, I don’t think I would have been able to achieve the『Sage 』job.
「…… I can’t…… believe it…… How……」
I picked up my guild card, which had fallen from Liese’s hands and onto the table, and placed it back into my pocket.
Blythe decided to add to what he had already said, and this time no one amongst the four made any argument.
「So what do you think? He’s an A-rank adventurer. Now you know how wrong it is to judge people by appearance alone. Since you now get the picture, I’m sure there’ll be no problem with you guys if he tagged along, right?」
The four of them nodded honestly in response to Blythe’s strong words.
Blythe explained the details of the request to the now-docile-quartet.
In order to gather adventurers and launch a raid attack on the dungeon soon, the request is for us to investigate the monster situation around the dungeon.
It would be ineffective to plan an attack on the dungeon but fail to reach it because of too many monsters surrounding it. He wants us to examine the distribution of the monsters to a certain extent and deal with them if necessary.
「…… So, will the guild reward us for the monsters we bring back?」
「Of course, But just to be clear we do not need materials of low-level monsters, okay? If it’s an orc, sure, the guild would be happy to buy them from you since there is a high demand for them」
Orcs are an essential part of the city’s diet. The fatty meat can be cooked as steak and put into stews. The stew I had at the inn yesterday had meat in it which no doubt was orc. Everyone enjoys orc meat.
「I might be able to help carry the monster bodies. I have Dimensional Storage」
I took out my wand from an empty space to prove it, and continued to explain.
「Meaning you should be able to carry a substantial amount, but of course there is a limit」
I say this even though I can fit virtually as many items as I want into it, since I can store 99 of the same item in my Dimensional Storage.
I learned that for buildings, I can only store one building per frame because no two buildings are the same.
「An A-rank…… with Dimensional Storage…… 」
Myra’s eyes are looking at me strangely but I play dumb.
「—- Okay. As the Guildmaster has advised, we would like to welcome Touya-san to our party」
Blythe nodded in satisfaction at Liese’s words. Galt and Jill raised their eyebrows, but nodded their heads in defeat.
「Let me introduce myself properly, I’m Liese, a Swordswomen」
「I’m Myra, a Mage. Wind magic is my specialty. Nice to meet you」
「I’m …… Galt, I serve as a tank and Warrior. I also attack」
「I’m Jill, A Thief, and mainly a scout. I didn’t expect you to be this strong. Nice to meet you」
「Nice to meet you too. I’m Touya. I’m actually from Imperial Capital, and I am here on a break. I’m a Recovery Priest, and as I mentioned I also have a Dimensional Storage, so feel free to leave your belongings with me」
One of the biggest problems adventurers face is having to carry a large amount of bags needed for multi-day missions. More and more elite adventurers are going out of their way to buy magic bags, but these bags are a rare commodity that are primarily found in dungeons, and are rarely found in the market.
A small bag can be traded for a few gold coins, and a large one can even be traded for white gold coins.
Personally, I don’t have to think too much about capacity limits for my Dimensional Storage, though…… I don’t know how much capacity I have left.
「I have a magic bag, but it’s full of stuff and does not store that much material. Thank you for offering to help, we’ll need it」
I gave Liese a nod. After we had introduced ourselves to one another, Blythe looked satisfied.
「Okay, we’re all good here. The five of you can go into the forest. Only you five. If any try to enter the forest, don’t hesitate to turn them away」
There are some who would want to enter the forest, even if the guild forbids it, as a source of income.
「So…… We’d like to go to the forest tomorrow, if you don’t mind」
To be honest, there is nothing to do in the city, and everything of mine is always packed in Dimensional Storage, so it’s not a problem for me.
「Oh, tomorrow is fine with me」
「In that case we can meet at the east gate tomorrow after breakfast」
I nodded and Liese smiled happily.
「I’ll get Maia to prepare the request form, and you can pick it up from the reception. We are done here」
Everyone nodded in agreement at Blythe’s words and left the waiting room.
In the hall, the party’s representative, Liese, went to the reception desk to receive the request form.
「See you tomorrow. Don’t be late」
「Let’s do our best tomorrow」
It does not matter how high my rank is, I have no intention of looking down on the adventurers of this city. After bowing and bidding my goodbyes, I left the guild.
I went to the market and bought some food and other items to replenish my supplies, and placed them in Dimensional Storage.
And then had lunch at a food stall on the way and returned to the inn early.
