Chapter 241 – Chapter 241 – Oneshota and the New Door
◈
After breakfast with everyone, we went into the adventurer’s guild with Melissa.
“Then I’ll go see D.O. Everyone work hard.”
“Yeah, Melissa too, do your best.”
“Cheer up, Melissa!”
“Cheer up, Melissa! Aim for the popular number one waitress!”
“How about the sexy number one?”
“I will work normally.”
Melissa goes to the bar corner and we go to the reception where Mr. Lenny is.
“Hello, Mr. Lenny.”
“Ah, Lant-sama! Hello! Elsie-sama, Noah-sama, Niña-sama hello too.”
“”Hello!””
“Hello, Lenny.”
For some reason, today’s Lenny had a brighter atmosphere than usual.
“Are you thinking of going to the dungeon?”
“Yes, today… I’m going to go to the 10th floor.”
Elsie and Noah must have grown up as they went through the flood, so it wouldn’t be a bad idea to advance to the 10th floor.
“Okay. Then, I’ll handle the collection request on the 10th floor as usual. But Mr. Rant! Please delay going to the dungeon today.”
“Yes? What’s going on?”
“Yes! Something very good happened! It’s the day of Rant-sama’s S rank promotion ceremony.”
S rank promotion ceremony.
That meant that the guild leader would appoint me as an S rank after finishing all the cleaning up.
“Ohhh! The day has finally come!”
“Rant is S rank!”
“I thought it would come someday. Hehe, thanks to the flood, that time has sped up.”
“In a moment, the guild leader will come out. Please wait until then. Oh, and…”
Mr. Lenny took out a copper dog tag from the receptionist’s drawer.
“Elsie-sama, Noah-sama. Congratulations. You two are C ranks from today.”
“Ohhh! We’re also promoted today!”
“Even, dog tags of consent…! We really have a C rank…”
Noah and Elsie received the dog tag with their eyes sparkling.
With this, Elsie and Noah are also C-rank adventurers.
“Congratulations, Elsie, Noah.”
“Hehe, congratulations.”
“Thank you! Rant, Niña!”
“Thank you! I-I’m really… Glad!”
Elsie and Noah smiled brightly and were delighted.
“First of all, if you stay here, you’ll get in the way of other adventurers, so let’s sit down.”
“Yes!”
“Yes!”
We first sat at a table and waited for the guild leader to come out.
While we were waiting, Melissa came up to us dressed as a waitress.
“Rant!”
“Ah, Melissa. It suits you well. It’s so pretty.”
“Oh, thank you… No, that’s not it. Today’s Rent Promotion Ceremony? I just heard from Mr. D.O.”
“Yes. The guild leader seems to have finally finished cleaning up.”
“Huh, Melissa. It’s not just Rant’s promotion ceremony today~ Tada! Me and Elsie were promoted to C rank too!”
Noah showed off his bronze dog tags to Melissa.
“Ah, did Elsie and Noah get promotions today too?”
“Yes! I was promoted from D rank to C rank!”
“Really? Congratulations, Elsie, Noah.”
“Thank you, Melissa.”
“Hee hee hee, thank you!”
Melissa looked at me again and asked.
“By the way… What are you doing at the promotion ceremony?”
“Well? To be honest, even when I was promoted to Class C, all I did was receive guidance.”
“Both me and Noah just got guided and received dog tags.”
“Hmm, maybe it’s because it’s C rank? They say that B rank has strict screening, so isn’t there something different?”
If it’s B rank, it’s Nina-san.
I looked at Nina and asked.
“Miss Niña, do you do anything special during the promotion ceremony?”
Like Noah, in fact, I wondered if there was a special ceremony starting from B rank, but Niña-san shook her head.
“No? When I became a B rank, I just received a dog tag along with a notice saying that I had passed the examination. Maybe A rank would be the same, right?”
It seems that the promotion ceremony is a privilege only for S rank.
Come to think of it, C-ranks had dog tags made of silver, B-ranks, and gold.
Then, what is the dog tag of S rank?
“Miss Niña, what material is the S rank dog tag made of?”
“Umm~ I don’t know about that. It’s been almost 130 years since I’ve been an S-rank adventurer. Hehe, but if it’s Rant, you’ll find out soon, right? Let’s wait calmly.”
Mr. Niña looked at Melissa and said, resting her chin on her.
“Let’s drink something while we wait. Melissa, strawberry juice, please.”
When Niña ordered Melissa, Noah raised her hand and said.
“Then I apologize!”
“I-I… With peaches.”
Listening carefully, everyone asked for their own juice.
“Oh, yes! What would you like to drink?”
“Then I’ll give you grapes”
I ordered Melissa’s love liquid.
“Okay. I’ll bring it right away.”
Melissa approaches the bar side of her pub corner and shortly after, Melissa brings the juices we ordered.
The adventurer’s guild’s juice had a cruder feel than the store’s juice that Elsie and I drank on our first date, but it was still delicious.
We waited for 10 minutes while sipping delicious juices each ordered.
The guild room on the second floor opened and the guild leader came out.
“Oh, you came out.
I got up early.
The guild leader stood for a while and looked down, saw me, came down the stairs and came towards us.
“Here you are, Rant. Were you waiting?”
“Yes, I heard that Mr. Lenny is having my promotion today.”
“I see. Hmm, it’s not grandiose to say it’s a promotion ceremony. I’m worried that I just made people look forward to it.
… Rant. As I said before, thank you again and again. The flood wouldn’t have been resolved so quickly without you.”
“Fledan is where I live. It’s only natural that I work hard to protect it.”
Haha, as expected, you’re a great person. Both in terms of personality and strength. In recognition of your achievements, I will appoint you as an S-rank adventurer as the guild leader of the adventurer’s guild.”
Saying that, the guild leader took out a sparkling diamond identification tag from his pocket.
“This is a diamond dog tag that only S ranks can have. A very special dog tag that only you can have now. Please don’t lose it.”
“Ohhh…!”
I was wondering what would come next after gold, but I didn’t expect it to be a diamond!
I received a dog tag from the guild leader and took a closer look.
Not everything was made of diamonds, but first of all, small diamonds were embedded here and there on the specially treated iron plate, and my name and rank were written on it.
The front and back of the dog tag were coded with a glass-like material, and thick diamonds were wrapped around the dog tag like a case.
And there was a hole in one side to put a string through so that it could be hung around the neck.
To be honest, very… It is a dog tag that looks simple and expensive.
I grabbed the S-Rank dog tag with both hands and stretched it out, looking up at the dog tag from below.
Your very own shiny dog tag.
“Oooooh!”
I was so excited.
Maybe when someone else sees it, my eyes will be shining brightly.
“Rant, can you pass me the dog tag for a moment?”
“Yes? Oh, yes.”
When I handed over the identification tag, the guild leader took a string from his bosom, skillfully passed the string through the hole, and knotted it to make a necklace.
“Keep your head down for a moment.”
“Yes.”
It seems that the guild leader is trying to hang it on my neck.
Well, it seems more like a ritual for the guild leader to hang the dog tags in front of everyone else, so it’s plausible.
I bent down to match the guild leader’s height.
The guild leader put the dog tags around my neck and said.
“From now on, I, Dante, will appoint adventurer Rant to S rank as the head of the adventurer’s guild in Fledan.”
When I raised my head again, the guild leader smiled benevolently and said,
“I look forward to your future endeavors, Rant.”
“Yes, guild leader.”
And.
“”Waaaaa!!!””
The adventurers around them shouted.
“This is the birth of an S-rank adventurer!”
“It’s been 130 years!”
“I’m watching a legendary moment!”
“It’s a party today!”
“Ahhhhh, please don’t be sexually harassed by the waiter!
“Huh? Really?”
Various adventurers’ voices and Dio’s screams could be heard from here and there.
“Rant. What are you going to do now?”
“Because I’ve had a good rest up until now. I’m going to the dungeon.”
“I see. Do your best. To be honest, I want to hold a grand festival, but there are still things to be done… Above all, the attitude of the adventurers after the flood is not good for the eyes of the common people.”
It seems that the guild leader is also suffering from various things.
“It’s okay. Guild leader, good job.”
“Heh, thank you. Cheer up, you too. Oh, and… If a request comes in that we need an S-rank adventurer, I’ll let you know through Lenny. As I said before, the choice is always yours.”
“Yes!”
“Then do your best in the dungeon today.”
After receiving encouragement from the guild leader, we left the adventurer’s guild.
◈
After entering the dungeon and coming to a point where I was somewhat separated from the warp device, I asked Niña-san.
“Come to think of it, how are you doing with your old dog tags, Mr. Niña?”
Since I was promoted from F rank to C rank at once, I only have two dog tags, C rank and S rank.
And the same goes for Elsie and Noah, who have just become C ranks.
“I keep it as a souvenir. It’s proof that I’ve lived an adventurer’s life.”
“As expected?”
“Yeah. Sometimes when I look at the old dog tag I keep, the memories of the hardships at that time are fresh and… I can recall the memories.”
If so, I think I’d better keep it.
After removing the C-rank copper dog tag and the diamond S-rank dog tag from around my neck, I put the two dog tags into my inventory.
“Huh? Rant. Are you going to include the S rank dog tags as well?”
“Yeah. It’s made of diamonds… It’s scary if you lose even one in the unlikely event.”
It’s not that I’m afraid of money, but that I’m afraid of losing something precious.
If you lose your mind while running in a muscle carriage or hunting monsters with excitement, you will feel extremely depressed.
“Hee hee, actually, Rant’s dog tag looks very expensive. Isn’t it the only one in the world, Rant’s dog tag?”
“I… Want to see more of Rant wearing his S-rank dog tag.”
“Okay?”
“Yes! That’s proof that Rant has become an S-Rank! I want to see a cool Rant with a dog tag around his neck his!”
If Elsie says… Let’s kick it for today!
“Okay. Then I’ll wear it for today.”
I took out my diamond tag again and hung it around my neck.
“How are you, Elsie?”
“Cool!”
I felt good because Elsie smiled and was happy.
“Hehe, I think I’m cool too, Lant♡ By the way… Let’s decide who gets to ride the weights today.”
“””Rock Paper Scissors!””
◈
It was Noah who lost at rock-paper-scissors.
“Cheet~.”
Noah is on the back of her, but I can clearly see Noah’s face her sticking out her lips her and regretting it.
Around an hour and a half on a muscle wagon.
We reached the stairs to the 10th floor.
We went down the stairs and reached the 10th floor.
The 10th floor is similar to the 2nd floor, with clear skies and grassy terrain.
The difference is that there is a very large tree in the middle.
“Ohh! This is the 10th floor!”
“There’s even a big tree!”
Noah and Elsie’s eyes twinkled when they saw the scenery on the 10th floor.
As expected, my heart races when I see the new floor.
I want to quickly reach a new level and be excited with everyone.
“Haven’t Noah ever seen the 10th floor?”
“When she rescued Elsie? At that time, she kept falling away and was a bit distracted. It’s been over a month since I only saw her once. I don’t even remember.”
“I guess so.”
Going down to the warp device, Elsie and Noah were able to see the Minotaur closely.
“Ah…”
“Whiyu~ I can have a good match with Rant.”
Both Elsie and Noah’s eyes were focused on the lower body of the Minotaur, which looked almost naked.
“Noah.”
“Yes why?”
“Mine’s bigger.”
“Poop! Hee hee hee, yes! That’s right! Rant is the best!”
“Huh… Uh, why is the Minotaur so naked, Niña-san?”
“Well~? But if you keep looking at it, you’ll get used to it and it’ll be fine.”
“Gwa, will you be okay?”
“Hehe, you’re already used to Rant’s cock, aren’t you?”
“I’m sorry…”
I want to hear more of Mr. Niña’s conversation to slightly embarrass Elsie, but I don’t have time.
“We were supposed to only do it from today until lunch. So let’s go quickly and catch it.”
“Yes!”
“Yes!”
“Okay. Ah, Rant. After lunch, let’s see how well Melissa is doing at the Adventurer’s Guild.”
“Yes, I will too.”
If there is a man sexually harassing Melissa… I’ll give you a tingling scolding.
I also have erotic delusions when I see other women, so it’s okay to see them with my own eyes and have erotic delusions, but flirting with words or directly touching them is out of the question.
