Chapter 15 A Sudden Recruitment

"Laris!!! Laris!!!!"

"Grandpa!! Grandpa!!!! What's wrong!!!!"

"That one-eyed, dead-fish-eyed young man sent us food!!!"

"That one-eyed, dead-fish-eyed big brother actually sent us food!!!!"

"But how did he know our address!!??"

The Fox Tribe grandfather and granddaughter stared at each other, their four eyes meeting.

---

With a yawn, Bray, who had been dozing off in the guild, woke up.

The two girls, Virginia and Blanche, had taken the money they earned and gone shopping.

Bray was not either of their boyfriends, so he had no intention of following them.

Thus, after getting a drink at the guild, he found a table and started to space out.

Rubbing his drowsy eyes, Bray stretched.

But soon, Bray felt that something was not right.

Why did the entire guild feel so quiet after he woke up?

"Ta——ta——"

Hearing the footsteps, Bray instinctively looked over, and then was slightly stunned.

Bray finally understood why everyone was so quiet.

A great beauty.

A female knight dressed in custom-made light armor walked into the guild.

The young, blonde female knight was strikingly heroic.

Handsomeness and cuteness were blended together on this young girl without any sense of dissonance.

Such a beauty was the type that appealed to both men and women.

Bray lowered his eyelids, not very interested.

Following behind the female knight were three people, both male and female, dressed in white mage robes.

"Lady 「Knight Princess」!!! Ahhhhh!!!" a female adventurer screamed without warning, and then fainted.

It seemed that while Bray wasn't interested, others were very interested in the female knight.

"Why would the 「Knight Princess」 Nisha come to this small adventurer's guild…"

After someone broke the silence, the people in the guild began to whisper amongst themselves.

「Knight Princess」 Nisha was a famous female knight of the Weir Empire, possessing strength equivalent to an A-rank adventurer.

Of course, this wasn't to say that Nisha was in the adventurer profession, but rather using the adventurer ranks to evaluate her strength.

To be precise, Nisha could single-handedly fight an A-rank magical beast, and an A-rank magical beast could wipe out a regular army of several thousand people.

And if evaluated using the abilities within Appraisal——

For example, the stats of the 「Sandstorm Worm」 among A-rank magical beasts would be like this.

---

Sandstorm Worm

A-Rank Magical Beast

Innate Abilities: 「Quicksand Skin」「High-Speed Regeneration」

Mastered Abilities: Unknown

Stats:

「Speed」16

「Strength」375

「Skill」11

「Physique」563

「Mind」15

「Art」235

Power System: Magical Element

---

「Speed」 was an evaluation of overall speed, including reaction speed, movement speed, agility, and so on.

「Strength」 was an overall evaluation of the destruction that physical strength could cause, which of course also included latent strength and the like.

「Skill」 covered a very wide range.

Sword skills, spear skills, and even a thief's stealing techniques and evasion techniques were all factors considered in the evaluation of this item.

「Physique」 was easy to understand.

Simply put, it was the toughness of one's constitution.

「Mind」 was the strength of one's spirit and soul.

「Art」 was an overall evaluation of the number and power of mastered arts and the ability to mobilize energy.

The power system referred to the power system used.

The power systems in Capras were very complex.

For example, magical beasts used Magical Element, while humans used Magical Power, Spiritual Power, and also things like Internal Qi.

For an ordinary adult, the average value for each stat would be around 3 to 5.

In short, the 「Knight Princess」 was very powerful.

For such a person to come to this small adventurer's guild would, of course, cause people to talk.

"Fellow adventurers, this time I am here on behalf of the Weir Empire to post a recruitment notice."

As she spoke, a woman from behind Nisha took out a notice paper and posted it on the notice board.

"This time, the Weir Empire is recruiting adventurers of D-rank and above nationwide to participate in the search of a ruin."

"Anyone who participates can receive a reward of 10000G afterward.

Those injured in the line of duty can also receive additional compensation."

Recently, a ruin of ancient history was discovered in Delnet, a certain distance from Clinton.

It was originally thought that exploring the ruin would be very dangerous——

But unexpectedly, the exploration of the ruin was very smooth, with not even a single casualty.

Thus, the explorers became bolder and bolder, continuously delving deeper into the ruin.

However, upon delving deeper, they discovered that the underground of the ruin was a whole new world.

Unfortunately, when they wanted to continue deeper, the explorers encountered a major problem.

Because the underground paths were becoming more and more complex, they helplessly needed a large number of experienced hands to participate.

The Weir Empire, which had already profited greatly from the ruin, mobilized funds from the national treasury to support this operation, intending to expand its gains.

Thus, this scene of recruiting adventurers of D-rank and above occurred.

"Then I shall take my leave. My apologies for the disturbance."

The 「Knight Princess」, having explained everything, bowed, and then left with the three white-robed people.

Not long after Nisha left the guild, the guild exploded.

"Holy crap, the 「Knight Princess」 bowed to me!!!"

"Who the fuck did she bow to!! It was clearly to me!!!!"

"Ahhhhh!!! Lady Nisha!!!!!"

Bray slowly walked to the notice board, staring intently at the "10000G reward" part.

"Bray~" Virginia's voice suddenly sounded, and Blanche returned with her.

"Useless captain, the young miss and I are back. Shouldn't you show the expression of a loyal dog to welcome us back."

Blanche's greeting really left Bray speechless.

"By the way, you're back just in time. There's a big quest, do you want to take it?"

"What quest?" Compared to Blanche, Virginia was clearly more dedicated to the job of an adventurer.

Blanche was actually just following Virginia as a guard of sorts.

A maid and a guard, truly an all-purpose domestic girl.

"Ruin exploration, over at Delnet."

"Alright~" Virginia was excited, her small fists already clenched.

——“Exploring ruins, this is very adventurer-like…”

"Since you've all agreed… after accepting the quest, let's hurry up and book the tickets."

The tickets Bray spoke of were not for horse-drawn carriages, but for railcars.

Iron-skinned cars that ran on the iron tracks spread across the empire, driven by crystals condensed from the magical power of specialized mages as fuel.

Such cars were much faster than horse-drawn carriages and were commonly used vehicles for long-distance travel.

It's just that the price was a little… expensive.

"Hiss——"

"300G…"

After counting on his fingers, Bray sucked in a breath of cold air.
