Even if you wear the grandiose title of exclusive butler and even wear clothes, there is nothing special about it..
All I do is wake up at dawn and spar with Cheryl, tidy up the room with the maids while she eats, and prepare things according to the day's schedule by gathering necessary items and loading them into the carriage in advance. Even if it's a bit more troublesome, there's something that sticks around when she participates in a banquet and acts as a biometric notepad that informs or remembers the names and faces of nobles in advance..
Normally, it would have been quite a busy position due to the reputation of the Ogatorp family, but Cheryl was different..
"I'm going to receive a request today, so I'm getting ready.."
"hey. I even sprayed perfume, but if that was going to happen, I should have told you earlier.."
"I didn't say that on purpose.."
I trembled as I watched Cheryl getting better at making fun of people..
Since she spent six days a week at the academy, where visitors were prohibited, I actually had almost no work to do. After doing a few simple things, the routine was to spend most of the day training with the knights. At least when she has a free day from class, she ends up following Cheryl on her outings, and even then, Cheryl doesn't go out to have fun or go shopping. She goes to receive a request from the Adventurer's Guild. I guess today was that day.
It's embarrassing.
But what is more scandalous than anything is the fact that Cheryl, who is like the embodiment of this scandal, was a blue-level adventurer..
When I first heard about it, I thought it was about the 6th grade, green level, but I never thought it was one level higher. It's just a matter of words, but in reality, being properly recognized as an adventurer begins at the blue level, so the perspectives on green and blue are different. The three grades below the grade are nothing more than a triple filter to filter out those who are difficult to treat as human beings..
It was a bit surprising that no one tackled or even guarded the little girl who was the next head of a family, going out alone and hunting monsters, but after going around a few times, I realized that there were knights hiding and watching, knowingly or unknowingly..
Seeing as she's not providing any help at all, it seems like they'll only help if the problem is at the level of finding out her identity and attempting to kidnap and assassinate her..
Of course, this was a good thing for me too. Because she always asked me to accompany her on her requests..
Of course, a newbie who has just become an adventurer and is wearing an uncolored iron grade tag cannot go along with blue-level quests. Thanks to this, I was able to go to the Adventurer's Guild any time on weekdays and receive any request I could, using the legitimate reason of being Sheryl's assistant as an excuse..
The result of working so hard for over a year was the green grade card hanging around my neck. A lot of things happened, but in the end, it was a pretty satisfying experience..
It was at this time that one of the questions I had when I first arrived, ‘What kind of requests are there for the adventurer guild in the capital and how can it be maintained?’ was resolved..
The quest to exterminate the adventurer guild located in the capital is simple. It's super easy. It's very difficult. There is literally no middle ground..
For difficult requests, it is difficult to tell whether it is fiction or real just by looking at the content. A manticore has appeared from some mountain range and is attacking the city, and requests that a high-ranking demon has been summoned and harpooned somewhere appear and disappear day after day. It was at this time that I realized for the first time that the problem was not just the Demon Lord's army, but the world as well..
In comparison, easy requests were truly standard requests that could be found anywhere. Starting with the goblins that appeared in the nearby village, eradicate the monsters that appeared in the underground waterway. Hunting of groups of low-risk monsters whose numbers have recently proven to have increased, etc. If the difficulty level increases beyond this level, the distance from the capital increases. It is maintained in a form that is truly worthy of its name as a low-level hunting ground..
It is no exaggeration to say that it is a free-range theme park for safe hands-on experiences. As a result, those who have some financial resources but want to safely build up their skills begin their lives at the capital adventurer guild..
Since those targets are customers, the guild cannot possibly make money. Seeing that consumable goods were sold within the guild, it was not difficult to guess that they were making quite a lot of money..
While thinking about this and that, I put on my leather armor, took my coat and other things like the sleeping bag I had brought with me when I first left Ogwen, and came out. Not long after, Cheryl, dressed in clothes similar to mine, appeared in front of me.
Wearing lightweight leather armor and greaves that were lighter than mine, and wearing iron gauntlets on his waist along with a long sword, he looked like an adventurer. Perhaps in consideration of the gradually chilly weather, he was even wearing a short cape, which he had not worn until a few months ago..
"Going a little far today."
And then he suddenly said.
"How far are you going to go??"
"I heard that bandits are seen gathering in the ruins near the western winery.."
Cheryl was walking around with her long hair tied back for ease of movement, but I couldn't hide my doubts..
"If the western wine country you're talking about is the one I know, it would take a day just to get there and back.?"
"That's right."
"No, what about your academy??"
"Didn't I tell you? It's vacation."
Didn't say anything at all. However, around this time last year, in early October, I remember taking a week off because it was fall vacation. Oh my god, it’s fall break! It makes me sick to my stomach that this disgusting thing can enjoy a festival that even I, who lived in modern civilization, have never experienced..
"No matter how much I think about it, I feel like the Academy is eating too raw. It's vacation. I think it is right to protest for education every day, 365 days a year.."
"The moment you submit such a protest, a petition requesting permission to bring the employee will also be posted.."
"You are good at studying. It's not exciting to think that you can study 365 days a year.?"
Cheryl slammed her fist into my side as if it wasn't worth answering..
So, throwing out the now-familiar nonsense, we went out through the back door of the mansion, with the employees and knights seeing us off. The street we came out of was crowded, but since it was a gate usually used by non-noble visitors to come and go, no one paid any attention to us coming out dressed as adventurers..
"If it's what you said earlier, isn't it a subjugation request or a reconnaissance request??"
"Subjugation."
"It'll be a good experience."
"It's a shame."
The fact that he came out of his mouth with a disgraceful evaluation of me means that he thought the same thing as me. He seems like such an annoying guy..
Even though I have an age that includes my past life, it's really scandalous that a 15-year-old has a similar way of thinking as me..
◈
After a long walk, we arrived at the Adventurer's Guild, where quite a few people had gathered since the morning. Coming to the guild at this time on a weekday was an unfamiliar experience for me, so the crowds felt awkward..
"I didn't know there were so many adventurers in the capital.."
But even Cheryl had similar thoughts as me. Anyway, the fact that he says this even though he has jjambap, it only sounds like something else has happened..
"If that's how you see it, then something must have happened.?"
"well. Just looking at the atmosphere, it doesn't seem like it's anything serious, so it might not matter.."
Well, it's just more of a noisy atmosphere and there's no serious atmosphere. If so, there wouldn't be any problem, so we decided not to worry and walked over to the huge bulletin board where the requests were posted..
Today, as usual, many requests were posted on the bulletin board. It was already hectic because there was a pile of request forms ranging from neatly pasted by the guild receptionists to requests that were crooked and messy due to someone taking them apart and putting them back together, but as it was so crowded with people, the area in front of the bulletin board was pure chaos..
"....Tsk!"
And behind them, Cheryl, a little over 165 tall, was struggling with all her might, trying to somehow lift her heel to check the bulletin board..
It's such a pleasant sight.!
Look at that hopping white-blonde rabbit! The way he voluntarily jumps into hell due to his high pride and ability to act when he should have asked me, who is 15 centimeters taller and bulkier than him! In an effort to maintain his dignity, he can't even resist the person who pushes him, and his eyebrows are twitching! A furry hand reaching for my bouncing butt... huh? what?
For a moment, my pleasant mood cooled down, and I walked up to her with great strides and pulled Cheryl in with my left hand, and with my right hand, I grabbed the hand of the molester who had been holding the girl's buttocks and threw her back..
-Crunchy soup!
I can't even guess his age. Mid 20s? thirty? It was not difficult to guess the age of the adventurers because they had beards and damaged skin. However, unlike the dirty shoes, the equipment that was not particularly well maintained, and the leather breastplate that showed only signs of age without any damage, it was clear that he was not a big deal. The sound of him falling and hitting the chair was so loud that people around him started to pay attention..
"Holy shit...! What are you doing??!"
"Fuck? What are you doing bastard? Why are those words coming out of your mouth??"
I thought that if I suddenly pinned it to the floor, it would run away or hesitate on its own, but as it looked angry and rolled its eyes, my eyebrows tightened without me realizing it..
