Other World Assassin Life of a Man who was a Shut-in Chapter 47

TL: Sponsored chapter 2 by Alex-sama

After a while,
Sitting in front of me was the Guild Master, bowing with his head down.
"I'm truly sorry! As the Guildmaster I was really only trying to see if you had the power to take down the Orc King! I am really sorry about this incident."
We~ll, I guess it can be accepted if your gonna apologize in such a way.
But,
"No no, I don't mind it. Then, what was you real intention?"
When I said so, the Guildmaster smiled.
"That is, I wanted to know if you truly had the power to take down the Orc King alone, so I thought you would at least be able to resist my punch! What do you think? Do you think you can have a fight with me!?"
Right then, Meru-san,
"Guren-san. Yuma is a very promising adventurer for the guild. If he was injured by your actions, then what would we do? Please exercise self-restraint and act your age."
When Meru-san said so, the Guildmaster made a giving up expression.
But, soon there was a smile on his face.
"Even if you tell me that, if there is such a strong guy in front of you, it is a little hard to stop my hand from flying out."
This guy, how did he even become the Guildmaster with that kind of a personality?
"I'm sorry, Meru-san. Please don't worry about me and lets stop this here and move on."
"If that is what you want, Yuma. I understand."
"Thank you very much. Now then, Guildmaster-san. What did you call me here for that you wanted to speak about?"
"Ah, that's it, that's it! Since you were quite strong, I totally forgot about that matter!!"
Is it really fine with this guy being the Guildmaster...?
"Well, before I start to talk about that, let me introduce myself! My name is Guren. I am well know as Scorching Heat Guren. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Oh, a pro name. That means that this person is at least B-Rank or higher.
"My name is Yuma. Well, recently im being called, Head Hunter Yuma.
My regards to you too, Guren-san."
And then, both I and Guren-san shake hands.
Oi, Guren-san, that's a little too much strength into grasping hands!
I'm also a little irritated, lets put in some effort into this too.
"Gu nu, As I thought, you have it in you! I haven't seen a person who could overwhelm my power since quite a while."
"Then, it's an honour."

And so, we let go of eachothers hands.
Now, before we really start talking, lets Appraise him a little.

｛Appraisal｝

Guren

Level: 54

Strength: 112

Endurance: 72

Agility: 82

Luck: 103

{Skills}

Sword Arts: Level 5

Berserk: Level 3

Fire Magic: Level 3

Sign Inference: Level 3

Stealth: Level 3

{t.i.tles}

Berserker

(TL: Stealth is actually written as Sign Concealment, but that would just confuse you. Since Yuma has Sign Isolation, which is kind of like a higher version of this)
I see, he is pretty strong.
He seems to be almost on par with the Orc King.
Well, the strength is a bit lower compared to that.
Then, the next thing is Berserk, that's a little interesting.
"Now, i've already introduced myself, so lets get to main point. Firstly, as the Guild Master, I thank you for taking down the Orc King and saving the city."
And so, both Guren-san and Meru-san bow their heads to me.

"No no, it is only natural. Well, I only took down what the request told me to."
When I said that, Guren-san raises his head and starts laughing.
"What! You only just took down the Orc king? As I thought, you are quite interesting!"
Guren-san grinned a bit,
"Now, the matter of your rank is the next topic of discussion."
Oh, Its here!
I WAS WAITING FOR THIS!

Now, what rank will I become?

"Originally, the Orc King is an A-Rank monster. Since you have defeated an A-rank monster, then you should be promoted to A-Rank, but."
But?
"If I suddenly raise your Rank to A, then the guilds in the other towns will start to pester me! I'm sorry about this, but this time, you'll have to make do with B-Rank. I am truly sorry about this."
Umu, as I thought, a sudden increase to A-Rank is impossible.
But still, B-Rank is enough.
"Its ok, I don't really mind. Im happy even if its only B-Rank."
"Is that so? Then i'm saved. I will make sure that you get A-Rank if something like this ever happens again! I swear on my name!"
"Thank you very much."
For now, I am B-Rank.
It has only been three days since I have become an adventurer.

I have already caught up to Grace-san.
"Then Meru, Yuma shall be promoted to B-Rank, so please take care of the procedures."
"Roger that, Guild Master."
And then, Meru-san left the room, leaving us here.
"Then, I shall also leave."
The moment I said that I was leaving,
"I'm really sorry, but can I ask a little more of your time to talk?"
I wonder what it is?
"I don't really mind, was there anything that you want me to do?"
"Ah, If its you, then I guess your ability is enough. Therefore, I have a request to ask of you. Consider this a Promotion request."
"I don't really mind, what is it about?"
"Thanks. Well, its like this, have you heard about the Ripper Demon that has been rumoured to be active in this city?"

The Ripper Demon, huh?
"Yes, several times since this morning."
"Alright, Its about that Ripper Demon. That guy was probably a member of the guild in the past."
Ho, Former Guild Member, huh?

"Then you wish for me to capture that person and bring him to you?"
"To put it simply, yes."
"Then, why did you say that this was a personal request from you?"
"Ah, that guy's name is Bakiru, He is a former B-Rank. It is quite difficult to capture a person of such rank easily. I did ask this of Grace-san, but since his weapon is damaged, it can't be helped. So, you're the only one left to ask this of."
"I see, I understand. I will accept this request."
"Thanks a lot!"
"And by the way, I have a final question. Is it fine If I killed that person called Bakiru?"
Its an important question. The difficulty of the request will rise accordingly to capturing a person rather than killing them.
"Ah, Its fine even if you kill him. Since he will be executed even if he is caught after all."
Then its not a problem. I can do this without hesitation.
"Roger."
"I leave it you you! He usually walks in the parts of roads that are not frequently used by people during the night."
"Understood. Then I will take my leave, Please excuse me."

After I said that, I left the room.
