The 10th Story: Adventurer Registration
Greeting.
When I pa.s.s by the door the thing that I see are the common drunken bar depicted in the western fantasy, there are st.u.r.dy and heavy looking tables.
Many adventurer-like persons are sitting around the tables.
When we enter the building all of those adventurers turn to look at us.
Rather, they all turned to look here at the same time.
After everyone was done appraising me they returned to their talks once again, they gave me a look of "He is useless".
"Gal, what is this" [Yoji]
I ask to Gal who is standing next to me about the situation.
"Ah, everyone is watching the new face, Yoji-san" [Gal]
"Why?" [Yoji]
"Well, it is normal to try to recruit someone useful to the party" [Gal]
"Is it like that?" [Yoji]
"That"s right, after all adventurers are putting their lives on the line every day, and strong party members will increase the survival rate" [Gal]
"Humm. Is it only I that receive that look of (He is useless)?"[Yoji] [1]

When I said that he gave me a pitying look.
"I said it before, but, Yoji-san has a weak appearance" [Mill]
Mill gives such a blow to me.
"Humm. It is fine! Because I will start a splendid adventurer life, even if I regret it later I won"t enter a party" [Yoji]
"Yoji-san, it gives a bad feeling when you say that so please stop" [Naria]
I was pulled back by Naria.
"Stop standing here like an idiot and go to the reception desk already!" [Mare]
Pressed by Mare-san I go to the guild counter.
"h.e.l.lo, I would like to register as an adventurer?" [Yoji]
I talk to the pretty lady at the reception desk.
"For the guild registration, you will have to start as an apprentice"
Mare who was behind me joins the conversation.
"No, it is different. Darren Commercial Firm"s Mare will become his guarantor, so please register him" [Mare]
The receptionist had a troubled face as she went to check with a senior lady.
The lady that seems to be her superior goes to the back immediately, after a moment a door opens and a male staff member comes from the back.
"Oh Mare-san, I have been in your care for various things. Will you become his guarantor?"
"Yes, I want you to consider it" [Mare]
(If you are reading this in a page that is not , this is a stolen translation, you should support the original translator)
"I understand, if it is someone introduced by Mare-san then there will be no problem"
"I see, sorry for the inconvenience" [Mare]
Suddenly my formal acceptation was decided.
By the way, it seems that normally it takes six months to be accepted after starting the apprenticeship.
After all, everything in the world is about connections.
After I witnessed this interaction I noticed that the basics are not different even in this world.
After that, the procedure was completed smoothly.
Mare-san is the best!
I heard this later, but it seems that Mare-san is a high-profile merchant that provides various things to the guild and when needed he pays an escort reward higher than the market price.
If such a person asks for it they can"t really decline.
At the end of the adventurer registration I got an adventurer"s certificate issued by the Valles Adventurer Guild.
In the adventurer"s certificate the name, age, s.e.x, place of origin and the adventurer rank are written, the place of origin, Thales Village, the adventurer rank is the lowest and the starting point rank G.
There isn"t something convenient like levels like in a RPG, the cla.s.s and achievements are updated every time, in this way it is all handwritten like a notebook with a metal cover.
"This is provided for free the first time, if you lose it we can re-issue it for you for a fee of 10,000 Zen so be careful with it. There are rules to follow in the guild. So please make sure to read them all. With this the registration is done"
The first cute receptionist smiled and finished the procedure
Frankly I think that this was too easy.
While I was registering, Gal and the others finished reporting the mission"s success.
After the registration ended I left the guild with everyone.
"You are dismissed with this, you have become a formal adventurer, it is good, good" [Mare]
"Thank you very much. I really appreciate everything Mare-san has done for me" [Yoji]
I obediently give my thanks to Mare-san.
"No, it is not a big deal; this journey was very easy thanks to your help" [Mare]
"I have to return to the commercial firm soon. It is a farewell. Well, for the moment, if we ever need an escort I will be counting on Gal and the others, so until then" [Mare]
Mare-san said so and parted.
"With this now we are done, so we are leaving now, we will take a break for several days" [Gal]
"I see, thank you for the help until now" [Yoji]
"No, no, if there is a chance let"s travel together again, bye then" [Gal]
Saying so, Gal and the others left, and I was suddenly left alone in front of the adventurer guild"s building.
Oh? Everyone left quickly.
This kind of parting, there won"t be a "Please don"t leave" cry scene, won"t there?
And so I who from a 27 years old salary man became a rank G adventurer stood there.
It is not an error made by me when translating, I am using these () here to make emphasis that he is saying this as a reference to the adventurers. Return to readingTranslator: Leoito
