Kapitel 3: Chapter 2: Adventure Guild
— Adventurers guild–
A place for adventurers to take up jobs, which was a staple in games, an
organization that supported the adventurers.
The job agency of this world. There was a rather large establishment before them and the fragrance of food
drifted from within.
Some rough characters would definitely be inside. They might find trouble with me if they saw unfamiliar faces.
After preparing myself mentally and entering…
"Ah, welcome~ Please approach the counter if you looking for jobs. If you
are here to dine, please take any empty seat~!"
A waitress with short red hair received us warmly.
The slightly dim interior seemed to double as a bar. Groups of men in armor could be seen congregating inside, but they didn't seem to bear ill will.
But unfamiliar faces seemed to be rare, everyone was focusing on us.
… I realized why they were looking this way.
"Hey hey, they are looking this way too blatantly. It must be the holy aura
coming from me, they must have discovered that I am a goddess."
The reason was the appearance of the goddess speaking dumb words. She looked like a beauty if she stayed quiet, and was attracting everyone's eyes. For now, I ignored their gaze and went about my original objective.
"… Listen carefully Terly, they will gave us a tutorial if we register, enabling us to earn a living. That's the kind of place adventurers guilds are. We should be able to take a loan to prepare ourselves, complete simple jobs to get by and introduce us to a good tavern. Most games start out this way. Normally, preparing the bare essentials to live in this world should be your job… But never mind. For today, let's register with the guild, get some equipment and money, and find a place to sleep."
"I don't care about that. My job was sending the dead to this world. But I get it. I am not familiar with games, but what you said was common sense for this world. So I just need to register to be an adventurer too, right?"
"That's right. Alright then, let's go."
Taking Terly with me, I made a beeline for the counter. There are four counter staff. Two of them were female. I queue up at the counter with the prettier lady.
"… Nah, the other 3 counters are empty, why are you queuing here? We won't have to wait if we go to another counter… Ah, because this counter staff is the prettiest? Really, I was just a bit impressed and thought that you were reliable, but you are doing this?"
Terly who was following me didn't know anything, so I whispered to her
quietly:
"Building a good rapport with the guild's counter staff is the basics. And the pretty counter lady definitely had plenty of flags to raise. This means there will be more shocking hidden side quest waiting for us. For example, the counter lady might be a powerful adventurer or something."
"… Now that you mentioned it, I saw something similar in a manga. Sorry, I
will wait in line obediently."
Because we did not approach the other empty counter and intentionally queue here, the other staff was looking at us curiously. But I decided to pretend not to notice. It was finally our turn.
"Good morning, how may I help you?"
The counter staff was a gentle beauty.
Her wavy hair and large breasts made her look matured.
"Eh, I want to be an adventurer. I came from the countryside and didn't know anything…"
If I tell the counter staff I came from the countryside or a far away nation,
they will give a more thorough explanation.
"I see. There will be a registration fee, will that be okay?"
That's right, this is the basic tutorial.
I will just need to follow the instruction of the counter staff…
… Registration fee?
"… Hey Terly, you have any cash on you?"
"I was transported here all of a sudden, how is it possible for me to have money?"
… How could this be, shouldn't they loan some money to us or put it on the tab for now?
I moved away from the counter and discuss the strategy with Terly.
"… Hey, what now? We are in a pinch right from the beginning. In games,
you would normally get the minimal equipment and some money for living
expenses too."
"All of a sudden, you became unreliable. But it can't be helped, you are a hikikomori after all. Alright, it's time for me to shine. Just watch, I will show you the capability of a goddess."
A man wearing the loose and cumbersome clothing of a priest was seated at a table.
Terly approached that man confidently…
"Man of the cloth, please state thy religion! I am Terly. That's right, I'm Goddess Aqua's daughter, worshipped by the Axis theocracy! If thou art a believer…! …Could you give me some aid by lending me some money?"
With an attitude that seemed aloft yet humble, she asked him for money.
"… I am from the Eris sect."
"Ah, I see, sorry…"
I don't get it, but they seemed to be from different religious orders.
When the dejected Terly was preparing to come back, the priest stopped her.
"Ah… Madam, you must be a follower of Axis. There were stories about
Goddess Aqua and Goddess Eris being close, so this might be fate. I had been
observing you, you have trouble paying the registration fee correct? It's just a small fee, so please take it as a blessing from Goddess Eris. But no matter how devout you are, you shouldn't use the title of a Goddess daughter in vain."
"Ah… Okay, sorry… Thank you very much…"
The eyes of Terly looked dead as she returned with the money.
"Hahaha… He didn't believed that I am a goddesses daughter… By the way, goddess Eris is my mom's junior… I was pitied by the believer of my mom's junior goddess, and received his money…"
"What matters is that you completed the task. Think about it, if he really
believed that you are a goddesses daughter, there would be a different kind of trouble!"
Terly had an expression that seemed to say she lost something important, so I encouraged her half heartedly.
"Eh… We are back with the registration fees."
"I… I see… The registration fees are 1000 Eris…"
Terly received 3000 Eris from the priest.
According to Terly, 1 Eris is about 1 yen, so she received about 3000 yen.
The counter lady didn't interfere the commotion we stirred up, and was
unwilling to look at me and Terly in the eye.
It seems I had broken the flag between this lady and me.
"Alright. Since you said you want to be an adventurer, you should have some level of understanding, but I will explain it from the start… First, adventurers are responsible for the extermination of the monsters wandering outside the town… People who get rid of dangerous creatures that might harm the citizens. They are also jack of all trades, taking on odd jobs that require their talents… People who earn a living this way are known collectively as adventurers. And among adventurers, there are different jobs."
Finally, it's coming. This is a norm for adventurers. Be it jobs, class or whatever they are called, you have to choose the way you fight in this world.
Compared to the blunt warrior profession, flashy jobs like mage would be better.
The counter lady handed me and Terly one card each. It was about the size of a driving license, and seemed to be a kind of identification card.
"Please look over here, do you see the word level? As both of you know, all
things in the world have souls. No matter what form it takes, if you eat or kill a being, you can absorb a part of the memory of the soul. This is known as 'Experience Points'.
'Experience Points' are normally intangible things, but…"
The counter lady pointed to one part of the card and continued:
"With this card, the 'Experience Points' the adventurer had absorbed would be shown here. At the same time, the level corresponding to your 'Experience Points' would also be displayed. This show how strong an adventurer is, and how many enemy you defeat would be recorded here. With the accumulation of 'Experience Points', all creatures would grow stronger rapidly at some point. This is known as leveling up… Simply put, leveling up will grant you all sorts of perks, such as skill points to learn new skills. So please work hard
to increase your level."
After listening to the explanation, I recalled something Terly said. She asked me 'Do you… like games?'
I got it. After listening to all that, this world was just like a game.
"First of all, please fill in your height, weight, age and other details in the
blanks."
I filled in my particulars in the form given to me by the counter lady.
Height is 170cm, weight 60kg. 16 years old, brown hair and eyes…
"That will be fine. Please touch this card. This will display the strength of
each of your abilities as reference to choose your job. After accumulating
skill points, you can learn skills that are available to your jobs. This is one of the key points in choosing jobs."
Oh, it was time for this.
The time to show my amazing potential and create a big commotion in the guild.
With tense emotion and a heart of expectation, I touched the card.
"… Alright, thank you. Kanike Hatake san right. Let's see… Strength, vitality, magic, agility and speed… All of them are above average, intelligence is a slightly above better than average… Huh? Luck is very high. But it is not very relevant for adventurers… This is troubling, from the numbers, you can only choose the most basic 'adventurer' job! Since your luck is so high, I suggest you give up being an adventurer and be a merchant… What would you like to do?"
Hey, my life of adventuring was being denied right from the very start, what
is this. The corners of Terly's lips were high in a smile, tempting me to punch her.Me being weak doesn't help your cause.
"Erm, I would like to be an adventurer…"
The counter lady said with a face of worry:
"It, it's fine, after leveling up and your stats improve, you can change your
job! And the adventurer job is similar to its definition, it is a combination of
all jobs… That's right, it might be a basic level job, but it doesn't mean it is worse than others! Adventurers could learn and use the skills of all jobs after all!"
"On the other hand, you need more skill points to learn skills. Without the
bonus attribute of the actual job, your skills would be weaker when compared to them. It's a jack of all trade, master of none."
After the counter lady point out the good points, Terly immediately shot me down.
I should find a place to throw her away.
It seems that I would be taking a basic job, or a beginner job. Anyway, it was the weakest job.But I am still an adventurer that appeared in this world.As I received my card with my name and the job 'adventurer' written on it with a heavy heart…
"Eh? Huh~! What is with these numbers? Besides the lower than average intelligence, and luck which is pit bottom, the rest of your stats drastically exceeds the average! Especially your magic, it is abnormally high, who in the world are you…?"
The counter lady screamed after looking at the card Terly touched.
The place was in an uproar.
… Weird, shouldn't that be happening to me instead?
"Hey, is that right? So it means I am amazing? Ara~ it is normal by my
standard."
No matter how useless, she was still a goddess and a Goddesses daughter.
But Terly being so happy that she's became embarrassed pissed me off.
"This, this was way past amazing! Mage type jobs which requires high
intelligence is not available… But you can choose any other jobs! The holy
knight with its strongest defense 'Crusader', the swordsman with the
strongest attack 'Swordmaster', the top tier cleric 'Archpriest'… You can
choose most of the top tier jobs right now…!"
Terly was slightly troubled by the counter lady's question and said:
"Well, it's a pity that 'goddess' isn't available as a job… It should be grand
cleric for me."
"Archpriest! Archpriest can use all kinds of recovery and support spells, they could even take the role of vanguards, a strong all rounder job! I will register you now… It's done. Welcome to the adventurers guild, Terly-sama, all our staff look forward to your grand exploits!"
The counter lady said with a pleasant smile.
… Strange, what is this?Like I said, this should be happening to me…
Forget it, anyway–And so, my life as an adventurer began in this world.
