Chapter 7: Dragon Slayer

“““““Welcome~♪”””””

Shining Eagle Adventurer’s Guild, now newly renamed Elunheine Adventurer’s Guild, opened its counter at half past nine every morning, earlier than all the other guilds. All of the receptionists greeted the adventurers with bright smiles and energetic voices.

It had now been a month since the merger between the two guilds was decided.

The pushing forward of their opening time. The warm atmosphere and this reception. Partly also thanks to several other new measures that they had adopted, this already well-positioned property along the main avenue was now bustling with adventurers day after day. In addition to the reception counters that had been increased to seven in total, at the other end of the right hand side of the reception floor was a booth that was partitioned off.

“As I was saying, this one is impossible for you guys~” Inside, the cat-eared beastkin Moko was in the middle of handling a male adventurer.

“I’m begging you, please make an exception for us!” The young adventurer bowed so deeply that he was grinding his forehead into the table between them. “I really want to take a big job and become Gold-ranked. Come on, please. Please let me take this job. I mean, it’s even written here that Silvers can take it!”

“But dear customer, our staff has determined that it’s impossible for you~” Moko waved the quest poster in the air.

The way this guild worked was that adventurers who wanted to accept a quest would first be evaluated by the guild on their aptitude and ability for the completion of the quest in question. Then, and only after then, would they entrust the quest to the applying adventurer. Cases that a general reception counter couldn’t handle would then be diverted to the separated consultation booth.

Back when the deposit fee was still a common practice, the guild would earn money even if an accepted quest was not completed. Due to that, evaluating and selecting adventurers for quests almost never happened. However, raising the completion rate of the guild tied directly to the guild’s income. That was why Shouzou set up this consultation booth very early on.

The person in charge for the consultation booth today was Moko, and behind her, Lalaine was muttering away as usual.

Shouzou approached, then lightly lifted the quest poster out of Moko’s hand.

From her hidden position behind him, Sofie also popped her head out to look at the quest poster.

“Subjugation of a dark dragon, I see. We’ve handled these previously by gathering Silver class adventurers in a support role in accompaniment to a military squad, haven’t we? What’s the problem here?”

“The problem is, this isn’t a quest for accompanying a military squad. In the first place, this quest wasn’t issued by the government, but by an association of traveling merchants. The main focus of this quest is only to investigate the movements of the magic beast in question, but I see here that the quest giver also included a line asking the quest receiver to subjugate it if possible.” The reward amount would shoot up in the case of subjugation.
