Tiana, hidden underneath the cloak, reached out and grabbed the soul stone and the small tack the receptionist handed.

She lightly pricked her thumb, and her blood fell on the stone.

A glow emerged from the stone tablet that was nourished with Tiana's blood. And in the next moment, a bright glow emerged from within.

Letters came haphazard on the tablet before arranging themselves in different lines.

"…" Claude and Erika were left silent.

"Oh cool, there's like, big numbers and stuff." While Tiana continued speaking, still hidden underneath the cloak.

"So…" the receptionist hummed. It was her job to be surprised by stats, and seeing Claude and Erika stare at the tablet with eyes popping out was deeply offensive. Rules, people, there were rules here.

Acknowledging her role, Claude tapped the spectator mode on the soul stone and sighed.

"You see for yourself."

The receptionist nodded and took the soul stone from Claude's hands.

And her jaw fell open.

Though the spectator mode hid everything but stats, including personal information, so there was no dropping jaws at her age, but the stats were just as wild if not more.

"C-charm in the hundreds? Is she using charm magic or something?"

The receptionist then crossed her arms.

"I want to see her face. I have never seen anyone with charm in hundreds."

Claude tilted his head, then remembered that she had not really seen Elric's stats since they were already adventurers.

"This guy here is 120,"

Claude said, tapping on Elric's shoulder.

"Oh… that makes sense," the receptionist nodded. "He does look like something out of this world."

"I agree," Tiana said too. "I thought I was the prettiest in my village at my age, but Ruler Ruler here puts everyone back home to shame."

"Alright, I don't wish to see you then."

"Rude!"

The receptionist shrugged and the cloaked one sighed.

"Now then," the receptionist spoke up. "You want me to register her as an adventurer too?"

"Yeah. Evening again?" Claude asked.

"Yup."

"What rank do you think she'll get to?"

"Hm. She's good enough for B, so I guess C-Ranked with a priority for promotion."

The receptionist sighed out loud.

"People might just get suspicious of us with so many strong adventurers coming to this country out of nowhere."

They would like to avoid such an issue too. They decided to play careful in the future. It shouldn't be all that odd for strong adventurers to decide to retire in a calm place pick up small quests now and then.

Claude then got to the next matter of concern. "I also want to pick up a quest for all of us."

"Quest board's to your right," the receptionist shrugged and got to fixing up her documents. The kids left the desk and movd over to the right, passing throuhg the carpet and over to desks made for meetings amongst the adventurers.

This place, though smaller and much more in line with nature, was still similar in layout to the adventurer's guild out in Leunderk town.

Half the spot, lit by the sun from the cracks in the veiny walls and windows

The group then moved toward the wall where the bulletin board with the quests hung wide. They gazed through the many quests placed on the wall with a lazy eye, searching for whatever would pay the most.

"Oh! Dragon hunt!" Exclaimed the elf as the noticed the bulletin with the details of the quest. Only for Mythril Ranked Adventurers and above, it specified, the location of the hunt too on the other side of the continent.

It seemed like a promotion at best.

"That's in case any mythril ranked comes over here. Whimsical guys, they go wherever they want whenever they want," the receptionist chimed in, her hands still fixed over her own work.

It seemed being sane didn't take you far as an adventurer.

Claude ignored the elf and looked for the other quests. Something they could all take on and still get some good cash with.

Goblin hunts, orc hunts, all of those were too small scale to get his interest. Though their recommended levels were for E to D ranked adventurers anyway.

Star wolves, a special type of carnivores that they had encountered in the mystic forext had also propogaterd this place and were free for the taking. Unfortunately, those guys were weaker than the orcs and goblins.

"These doggies are for C-Ranks?"

"Stupid. We need another snake hunt."

"Nah, I am done with snakes."

"I dislike snakes too, Ruler Ruler."

"Oh, how about this?" Spoke up Erika, picking out a quest for them. "A good little hunt for the stone golems."

"Golems?" Elric muttered. "Isn't that like fighting others?"

"No, no, these ones aren't the ones you're thinking," Erika clarified. "Golems are naturally formed monsters. Its when mana in a places condenses too high and forms a moving mass. Golems are strong enough to break giant bpoulders and numerous enough to be a problem."

The hero that had been invovled with the workings of the world knew more about the monsters than all of them here.

"Hm, golems, huh?" Claude saifd. The quest did specify B-Ranked adventurers or above and only needed one extra golem for each rank.

B-Ranked adventurers only needed one golem, A-Ranked two, S-Ranked three, Gold Ranked and so on.

But the problem remained that they were still C-Ranked.

It probably wasn't going to be a problem.

"Is it, miss receptionist?"

"Oh, the rank? You guys barely make the cut since you're in a party"

There, it was handled.

"The party can pick up quests corresponding to the party leader's rank."

All of them went silent.

Elric was C.

Claude was C too.

And Tiana was going to be C ranked as well.

Only Erika.

Had been given the B Rank in a single go.

All of their lips turned into tight frowns except Erika's.

"This quest it out."

"I am not going to be useless mage's sidekick."

"I agree with Ruler ruler, I would be a better choice."

Erika grinned a nasty grin as she watched her friends with a sidelong glance, like a tiger would stare at it's prey.

"The pay is, three gold for each golem core we bring in."

Claude bit his lips.

"Oh, but, if you want to do the star wolf hunt for fifty silver then I am alright with that too… C. Ranked. Adventurers." f reewebnovel.com

She had hit where it hurt.

This damned bitch was going too far. This wasn't a good look on her.

All of them went ahead and scoured the board for any other quest they could take on, but almost none existed. The Silvanus mountains were in relative peace and any major monsters could be hunted down by the knights of the country.

"This… this is a complete defeat. Utter devastation. Damn useless mage, you hit us with a Yellow Cross Split Attack! What are you, a monster?!"

Erika covered her face at Elric's words.

"I reject my humanity, Elric."

Claude sighed too. More at the goofs he had with him than the quest.

In the end, they decided to move ahead with it after all.

The receptionist gladly let them accept the quest.

"Oh, but the cloak there isn't an adventurer yet."

"Uh… what cloak?" Tiana said. "I know none. I am a super adventurer, yes. I don't know who you're talking about."

"Y-you don't have to do that."

"Yeah, we'll not be heading out today anyway," said Claude.

"What? Why?"

He smiled and wrapped his arms around Elric and Tiana first. For one he was sure, for the other, he couldn't ever be too safe.

"We're going to study."

Elric and Tiana shivered.

"Everything on Golems."

"Hoho! You do that, I just remembered some important work."

"Unfortunately I am not an adventurer yet. I would have loved to accompany, but I am not an adventurer—"

They weren't let present their arguments as Claude mercilessly dragged the kids over to the desks filled with material on the golems.

The group spent the rest of the day in the empty adventurer guildhouse, reading maps and journals alike.

The receptionist even handled their signing and other issues in the spot with them spending the entire evening around.

They went back home with drained faces. But thankfully, Gustavo had come once again with food.

The quartet all thanked the kind hearted real-estate guy and went to sleep that night. The next day rolled over faster than they would have liked.

And.

"Let's go! Golem hunting!"

The time to began the quest had come!
