Chapter 40: At the Guild
While not as grand as the capital, many adventurers gather in the trading city of Gilbadia. It is easy for adventurers to obtain new weapons and magical tools, as well as essential items such as recovery potions. In addition, the citys accessibility is also attractive to adventurers.
Therefore, its no surprise that the appearance of the Adventurers Guild in this city is quite large and impressive.
Um, can I ask you something?
What is it?
The smell of alcohol and food and the sound of laughter could be heard even from outside the guild, giving a hint of the lively atmosphere inside it. After parting with Eleonora, Luke and his party arrived right in front of the Adventurers Guild.
It was Zach who raised his voice just as they were about to enter the Guild.
Well as you may know, there are occasionally former nobles among us adventurers, but most of us are commoners like me. There may be some who are rude to you, Luke-sama. If possible, could you overlook it a little?
Hmm, very well.
Huh?
Zach was surprised by Lukes unexpected agreement.
What? Is there something else?
N-no, thats all. Thank you very much.
At the blacksmith shop in Dalkin, Zach had somehow managed to accommodate Lukes requests and calm the chaotic situation. And for some reason, he felt a strange sense of familiarity.
Luckily or unluckily, Luke also had taken a liking to Zach to some extent.
Then lets go inside. Lead the way.
Y-yes, understood.
Zach paused for a moment and silently wished that nothing troublesome would happen.Cheêck out latest novels on
(please, dont let anything happen!!)
He steeled himself and entered the building. For Zach, the sight was familiar, but for Luke, it was his first time seeing it.
Ha ha ha! Oh, Zach!
People wearing armor were stationed everywhere. The guild had a bar attached to it, and it was very lively.
However, the commotion abruptly died down when someone else entered after Zach. In this town, there was no one who didnt know Luke, the legitimate son of the Gilbert family.
Everyone wondered why he was there. And more importantly, it stirred up traumatic memories in the adventurers.
Kyaaaahhhhh!!!!
Eh!? Mockel!?
Suddenly one adventurer went crazy and ran off to a back room as if to escape from something.
What was that?
I dont know. Maybe he has a stomachache or something. What an idiot. Ahaha
Zachs dry laughter echoed loudly in the now-silent guild.
However, he knew who the person, Mockel, was.
Well
Immediately afterwards, the three men who had rushed over turned around and said,
Were sorry for the trouble!
As if they had coordinated beforehand, they all bowed their heads to Luke at the same time.
Hey you! Arent you going to apologize too?!
Ow! S-sorry.
Immediately afterwards, they forcibly punched the big mans head down and dragged him away somewhere. As they were leaving, one of the three men who appeared later glanced at Zach and quietly gave him a thumbs-up.
Y-you guys!
These men were fellow adventurers who were especially close to Zach. Actually, this was a traditional rite of passage that every rookie adventurer had to go through. The big man who had gotten involved was simply following that tradition.
Adventurers face danger to their lives. Therefore, in addition to their skills, their courage is also tested as to whether they can continue being an adventurer or not.
However, this time, it was inevitable that he had misjudged their opponent. If Luke became displeased, there would be consequences. That was a well-known fact among the adventurers in this town.
In other words, the three men who had rushed over were just being friendly towards a fellow adventurer, and were protecting the big man who had just arrived in this town.
Well, well! Luke-sama! And, Al-san I mean, Alfred-san! Welcome to the Adventurers Guild!
At that moment, another man appeared in a fluster from the back. That man was the guild master, Dolce Pannacotta.
So youre sure you want to register as an adventurer this time around?
Yeah.
Very well, I will take care of it for you.
(Despite being in front of the counter, which should be the place to register as an adventurer or request a job, why did the guild master have to personally come out Is it because Im a noble? Its such a hassle.)
Luke felt somewhat annoyed by the troublesome things that came with his noble status.
Well then, this way please. I will explain the job details, system, and rewards in a separate room. By the way, what about Zach?
I will be joining Zachs party for a while.
It was a casual response from Luke to Dolces casual question.
Eh?
Zach had intended to give a simple greeting and escape from Luke as quickly as possible.
Therefore, he couldnt immediately understand the meaning of those words. Slowly but surely, the meaning of the words sank in and
Ehhhhhhhhhhh!!!
It was a scream, a scream from his soul.
Reflexively, Zach looked to his fellow adventurers for help. However, everyone in the room, including those who had helped him with the large man earlier and his close friends, looked away.
