Chapter 10-: Rank Up

 

{SPONSORED CHAPTER}

 

( TL By GUST )

 

(TL - Chapter Sponsored by Krazey)

 

"Congratulations, Mr Shroud."

 

 

 I dealt with the various cleanups regarding the bandits until the evening ......

 

 

 

 Afterwards, I was called into the adventurer's guild, and a smiling Natalie said something like that to me.

 

 

 

"Congratulations. ...... What do you mean?"

 

"Shroud's rank as an adventurer has been upgraded.

 

"What?"

 

 

 What?" The suddenness of the news caused me to let out an absent-minded sound.

 

 

 

 I'm being promoted?

 

 

 

"Shroud-san, you will be promoted from F rank to E rank.

 

"Really?"

 

"Oh, you did it, Rain!"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 I'm not sure how I feel about it, though.

 

 

 

 The only thing I've done since becoming an adventurer is collect medicinal herbs.

 

 

 

 

 Natalie seemed to understand my question and explained it to me.

 

 

 

"What you need to do to get a higher rank is to complete a certain number of requests. Shroud has not yet completed the required number of requests, but he has been granted the ...... exception."

 

"How did that happen?"

 

"You did it yourself, remember?  It's about the jet-black fangs."

 

"Oh."

 

 

 

 I could understand what she was saying.

 

 

 

"The destruction of the Jet-Black Fang, which other adventurers had to deal with, was largely due to Shroud's efforts. Or rather, it's completely thanks to Shroud-san."

 

"No. No, I just paralyzed them, but I didn't do anything that great.'

 

"You are too humble. I heard that you and Kanade-san stood up to King Lizard when it showed up to help everyone escape.

 

"Well, that's ......."

 

 

 I was a little embarrassed when someone pointed it out to me again.

 

 At the same time, I was disgusted because it reminded me of something I didn't like.

 

 I was so self-conscious at that time.

 

 

 If I were asked to do the same thing again, I might refuse.

 

 

 That's how hard it was.

 

 

 

"The guild has determined that Shroud has made a significant contribution to the destruction of the Jet-Black Fang. Therefore, in honour of his achievements, we have decided to upgrade his rank to E as an exception for your great efforts."

 

"I see. ...... Thank you."

 

"Don't thank us, we should be the ones apologizing."

 

"What do you mean?

 

"The Jet-Black Fang is a C-rank request. If you accomplish it, Shroud, you will be judged to be as capable as a C rank.

 

"What?  If that's the case, isn't it strange that he is been promoted to E rank?  Shouldn't he  be promoted  then to C rank?"

 

 

 

 I'm not sure what to make of it.

 

 

 

 I was thinking the same thing, so I didn't stop her.

 

 

 

"That's the problem. ......"

 

 

 Natalie-san made an apologetic face.

 

 

 

"There is a rule that adventurers must upgrade their ranks step by step. ...... I'm sorry. Shroud has indeed performed well enough to be ranked C, but rules are rules. It's not that easy to make exceptions over and over again. ...... Rank ups were allowed as exceptions, but this one was not. I apologize for that."

 

"Oh, no. No need to apologize. If that's the case, then so be it. I'm not complaining either.

 

"That's very kind of you to say that."

 

"I'm just glad it was so easy for me to move up.

 

"......"

 

"What's going on?"

 

"Hmmm. Shroud-san is kind, isn't he? You care about me, don't you?"

 

"...... That's not true."

 

"If that's not the case, let's just say it is."

(TL: Can I do some maths and add the girl to the harem)

 

 

 

 I can't help but admire the beauty of Natalie's smiling face.

 

 

 

"You can't help it, right."

 

"Nyauu ......"

 

 

 

 I'm not sure why, but Kanade stomped on my foot.

 

 

 

 

 I've been through a lot, but my rank has increased and I've been rewarded.

 

 

 

"Wow, that's a lot of money."

 

"I can't move up in rank, but they've prepared a special reward for me instead."

 

 

 

 Three gold coins.

 

 

 

 Three gold coins. That's the reward for the series of incidents.

 

 

 

 

 

 Kanade looked happy and ......

 

 

 

 

 

Then she seemed to remember something, and her tail wagged. "Nyaaaaahhh. ......"

 

"What's wrong with you?

 

 

"I'm hungry. ......"

 

"Hahaha."

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 I couldn't help but laugh at the words that were so typical of Kanade.

 

 

 

"I've worked so hard. So so hard."

 

"Sorry. That's right, you worked hard, didn't you? Let's eat then."

 

"Ooh, food." " Let's Eat, eat!  Eat! Eat a lot!"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Kanade has a big smile on her face.

 

 

 

 She was drooling a little.

 

 

 

 She's like a kid.

 

 

 

 But maybe this kind of cheerfulness is Kanade's charm.

 

 

 

"Rain, Rain!  I want to eat fish!  I'm going to drool just thinking about it."

 

"It's already coming out you know."

 

"Oops ...... hehe, I've been caught in an embarrassing situation. Rain, let's go home!  "Today's meal is fish..."
