Chapter 29: h.e.l.lo Work
The have the guild here in capital city as expected, is its several times bigger than the one in Koper town. Does it have a lot of counter like bank? Since it has a bit of a bad design, it gives an atmosphere of a License Renewal Center than a bank.
There’s more than one notice board. As it was sorted by ranks, there won’t be any trouble like taking a wrong one by mistake.
When I roughly observe the guild, I found a counter that I’ve seen for a first time. 『Employment Consultation』 was written on it. Some kind of ad was also written on the nearby newspaper.
For adventurers who wants to find a job, you can have a guidance from the guild.
Adventurers hoping to find a stable life should seek some consultation in this guild.
Adventurers that are good at combat had many opportunities to play active role in battles in various district. The job varies from guarding important person, guarding commercial facilities and so on.
In case that you managed to enter the government service as the royal knight, you can notify the guild.
To get the job that suits you, the guild will always lend a helping hand.
For more info, please refer to our counter number 7, the 『Employment Consultation』 counter.
※Consultation is free of charge.

…somehow it sounds like h.e.l.lo Work.
“Lets try it. Amyl, why don’t you go?”
“Th-thats right. Then I’ll try to consult them.”
Presenting the name and current rank at the reception desk, Amyl fills an application form with simple background details, filling it while scratching his head.
“I’m not good at things like this.”
Amyl receives a ticket number from a staff distributing the ticket, he then proceeds to sit idly on a chair. His turn finally come after a while.
“The person with the ticker number 164!, please come to counter 7~”
Some kind of calling that drags on came, and Amyl that confirms his ticket number stands up in a panic. Waiting at the counter is a lazy old man that really gives the atmospheres of a public servant. Somehow I recalled the unpleasant thing in my previous life. It’s the type that even if there’s still one minutes left of work, he will definitely stopped working. Its that kind of person.
“Erm, Amyl-san. You wished to be a knight… and you’re 18 but already a Silver Rank. Heh~ it’s great that you’re already a Silver Rank while still young.”
“Y-yes.”
He seems a little bit glad to be praised. But don’t let your guard down. This is because public servant will drop to the main thing after raising your hope.
“Can Amyl-san do anything else aside from fighting? For example, quick calculation or training animals?”
“No…that, nothing…in particular.”
“Ah~ then being a knight is a bit hard. Although there are cases of commoners with great fighting power turning into one, if you’re a Silver Rank with no special skill, it’s a bit hard you know~.”
“I…see.”
Amyl had teary eyes. I wonder why, when I look at him I felt pain in my stomach. Do your best Amyl!
“If you want to be a knight with just you fighting ability, you need to at least be a Gold Rank you see~. That and also successfully defeating a strong monster. Since Amyl-san is young with a lot of potential, you might be able to enter government service one day~.”
“I-is that true!?”
It seems that he’ll manage somehow if he reached the Gold rank. Since Goemon(temporary) is the only people I know that is a Gold rank, I guess the minimum requirement is to be at level 35 at the lowest. You’re 10 levels below the requirement. Well, it’s not impossible. Amyl who had just finished the consultation had become motivated. He came over to me enthusiastically.
“Est! Lets dive into the dungeon right now! Come on!”
“Well, settle down first. The dungeon won’t run away.”
Once he settles down, we left the guild and entered a nearby shop for a light meal. The purpose is to discuss about the thing we will do in the future while having a meal. To the onee-chan who came to have our order, I ask for 4 of today’s special while paying in advance. The food arrives after a while, it seems to be a puffy white bread and boiled sausage, and also a salty soup.
“For the time being we should be Gold rank first, so we need to raised at least 10 of our levels. He also said something about defeating a strong monster, so we need to do some outstanding job. You will be made fun of as a commoner if you don’t raise your prestige.”
I keeps talking while having a meal. There’s too many salt in this dish. My blood pressure will definitely go up…
“With that, I have a proposal.”
I happened to hear something while Amyl was consulting a little while ago, it seems that for the dungeon in the capital city, a boss monster will regularly appears as the floor master for each few levels. As it seems to be a considerably strong monster, Amyl will definitely gets high prestige if a young adventurers like him defeats it. I heard the fellow adventurers talking about that while returning home. Since it revives back at a fixed timed after it was defeated, there seems to be no end to the person who challenged it.
“It might be a challenge for you who’s still at Silver rank. You might even get wiped out if its too strong. But still, the reward will be huge if you defeat it. How about it, wanna try?”
Amyl and Lelena both look at each other, then both of them bows their heads.
“I beg you. I want you to cooperate with us. As Est is not directly related to this, not to mention there won’t be a reward since it’s not a quest from the guild either. However, I think it will be impossible with just the two of us. I’ll try to pay you as much as possible if everything goes well. Therefore I need you to lend a hand.”
“Since I also think it will be difficult with just two people, I also ask this from you. Please lend us your help.”
Since I never thought that they would lower their head so seriously like that, to be frank I was bewildered. When I glance at Claire, she nods a little with a smile. The thing that we’re going to do had been decided from the very beginning huh, Claire?
“Please raise your head, you two. Why are you being so polite right now? We’re planning to help from the very beginning.”
The expressions of the two people brightens at that moment. As a subst.i.tute for you wedding present, shall we work hard for a bit?
