Amyl went up from level 32 to 39. Lelena went up from 31 to 38 respectively. It seems that everyone managed to get the 『Floor master Subjugator』 t.i.tle. It might be the influence of the t.i.tle, as the growth of our abilities seems to be greater than usual. I’m the only one who managed to get the 『Immortal Killer』 t.i.tle. Is it thanks to the two t.i.tle, when I compare the me who fights the Dullahan before, it’s like I’m a totally different person.

“My Lord…such terrific strength” (Diabell)

“Oi oi, this status growth is totally abnormal. It’s like you’re no longer human.” (Amyl)

“Or rather, this is no longer at the level of Gold-rank anymore.” (Lelena)

Everyone got surprised once they confirmed my status. Certainly, it’s a strength that if I were to have a rematch with the Dullahan again, I could win with room to spare. The Gold-rank is already certain with this.

There are so many things that had the level increased this time, that I could acquire as many as 4 skills. With this I raise the 『Ice』, 『Healing』 and 『Earth』magic to level 2 respectively, as well as taking the 『Experience Value Up：Level 3』 which is the top priority.

Now let’s work hard on collecting the monster cores.  Although I say that, I can’t expect much from the undead’s monster core which is only like a pebble. Just like the soldier ants, there’s not that many monster cores that I could collect from the small fries. However, should I say as expected, the monster core of the Dullahan was stunning.

The size is not that big, but it’s a beautiful transparent monster core without any impurities. n.o.body will notice even if I said it was a jewel. This will surely fetch a huge sum of money. And, there’s also another thing that can be collected from the Dullahan.

For example it’s the great sword that badly tormented me. It deprives your physical strength while ignoring the defense, it’s a magic sword that could even absorb projectile magic. This is a present for Amyl. It will just gets in the way of the s.h.i.+eld for me, and the other members only used dagger. A sword the same height as you is not that easy to handle.

“Is it okay? Even though you’re the one who defeated the Dullahan…” (Amyl)

“It’s fine. When you become a knight, you need to equip this weapon to raise your prestige. With only that weapon, who do you think will have the nerve to make fun of you?” (Est)

Although Amyl keeps on looking between me and the great sword for a while, he seems to have made up his mind.

“I got it. Then, I will gratefully accept it. Using this sword that you gave me, I swore that I will become an excellent knight.” (Amyl)

He deeply bowed to me when he said that. Lelena also similarly bows beside him. Oh stop it you~. I’m weak to things like this. Don’t you feel embarra.s.sed when you express grat.i.tude face to face like that? Now, as I don’t want to dwell in such a bad smelling place forever, let’s quickly head back above ground.

Our return trip is smooth without comparison. There’s no enemy that could fight us directly even if they appeared. Even the Iron Beetle that we encountered again, it’s possible for us the cut its armor in two with a single blow.

When I head to the Guild’s branch office at the dungeon entrance to report that we defeated the Floor master, it caused quite a commotion. Cheers break out from the adventurers who saw the monster core of the Queen Ant and the Dullahan that we submitted.

“Oi, take a look at that”

“How many gold coins do you think that would sell?

“Those young people are the one defeating the Floor Master? Are you kidding me?”

“No, try checking their level. Even the little girl who’s the lowest exceeds 30.”

“Oi oi, such a small kid and she’s already nearly doubled mine..?

The eyes of the surroundings are mixed with awe and envy. Claire and the others seems uncomfortable. In times like this, it would get better if you just think of the surrounding people as radish. Talking radish…they’re not that scary.

We got called to the reception desk while I was thinking about something foolish. As they can’t deliver the reward at this place, it seems that we have to go the Guild headquarters at once. When all of us boarded the carriage that the guild had prepared, the guild staff who rode with us explained.

“Although there should be a promotion exam for you guys, your promotions to Gold-Rank has already been decided.” (Staff)

We looked at each other. Amyl and Lelena seems to be really glad. But they seems to hold it in as they can’t make a commotion inside the carriage.

“And then, there’s the matter with Diabell-san and Shallie-chan…” (Staff)

I see. Those two had been taken into the dungeon without registering as an adventurer. Hence they’re not even a Bronze-rank.

“Usually you would register normally from bronze and take the promotion in turns, but registering as a Bronze-rank while already having a t.i.tle of defeating the Floor Master, it would seems strange from the other adventurer’s perspective. If a person with the power of Gold-rank taking the work of the lower rank, we’ll receive lots of complains.”

As a result, those two would also become Gold-rank just like us. That’s good. Everyone will be the same rank like this. I’m relieved. And then, why would you make us go to the Guild headquarters?

“When an adventurer is promoted to Gold-rank, the plate is given by the head of the Guild without any exceptions. Please don’t worry about it as it won’t be such a formal thing. It’s because the head of the Guild is a good-natured person.”

Then it is good. I’m not really good with things like ceremony or greetings.despite my worries, the carriage had arrived in front of the Guild. We pa.s.s through the adventurers busy sorting and selecting the quest, and was guided to the second floor. When the staff knocks on the door, a beautiful and dignified voice saying “Enter” could be heard from the other side.

Opening the door and  meeting my eyes, was a blonde woman sitting on a chair while handling huge pile of doc.u.ments. Her hand stopped working once she caught a glimpse at us, standing up from her seat.

“Welcome, fellow adventurers. I welcome you. I’m the Guild master, Rubias.”
[T.N:  ルビアス, ru.bi.a.su. Feel free to give better name, as I think none could give worse than my machine, which is Ruby a.s.s]

The Guild Master is a woman!? That was unexpected. I even thought that it would be a rugged old man for sure… she’s a considerably beautiful woman. As for the age, she should be around 30? Her hair is tied up overhead. Although she looks slim, the place that should go in did goes in, while the place that should go out splendidly goes out. Indeed, nice body.
[T.N: He said “Nice body” in English]

Of course she wont be in this position just because she’s a beautiful onee-san. In fact, Level 45 appeared when I checked her status. Although her level is above me, to be honest I don’t think I will lose.

Did she notice that I observed her, she just turned her glance at me with a smile.

“Are you Est? I’ve heard the story about you. You’re just an inexperience Bronze-rank a while ago, then suddenly became a Gold-rank adventurer in no time. Moreover, not only do you have the Floor master Subjugator t.i.tle, you even had the Immortal Killer t.i.tle. I doubted my ears when I first heard of it.”

Did she collect the information about me? There’s not that much distance from Koper town to the Capital City, did I stand out too much from the baby dragon case and the urgent quest? I shouldn’t relax my guard. I don’t want to get dragged into troublesome things.

“Such a good youth appearing, I’m proud as the Guild Master. I expect a lot from you from now on.”

When she said so, Rubias hands over the Gold-rank plate to us one by one. The purchase amount from the monster cores is 50 gold coins in total. Although I think it’s an exception, it might have turned pretty big as we have defeated the Floor Master that rarely appeared.

I hardened my body when I heard her said that, but it seems like that is the end. Eh? I thought for sure she would have ask us to do some kind of quest. Whatever…NOT! One important business still remains. When I told her the story about Amyl entering the government service, Rubias that has returned to her paperwork answered again without any unpleasantness from her face.

“Ah, that one. Since the record from Amyl inquiring about entering the government service is still here, the staff should have already processed it. Since you will surely get the letter of recommendation, work hard as soon as you get the job okay?”

I thanked her as we leave the room. “Work hard as soon as you get the job”? Is it because you will be recommended as knight for sure if you are a Gold rank? When I doubt that, the staff like the last public servant explained.

“For a person aiming to get into government service as a knight, they need the letter of recommendation from the guild~. The interviews as well as the battle exam held at the Knight Quarters at the date and time written here~. Once you pa.s.s it, you will clear everything and will enter into government service as a knight~.”

There’s an examination too. Ah, Amyl is already looking pale. Apart from the battle exam, this guy doesn’t seems to be good with interviews. Can’t be helped, shall I train you using the experience of my previous life at the public interview examination?

T.N: The next few chapters should be a bit easygoing as  a change of pace.
