224 222 Behind Serdio (1/2)
Serdio's body was recovered by Alliance officials and his squire was taken to the dungeon.
Diaz will take us through the guild. For once, it's a body that hears the circumstances from the reference person who murdered the Viscount.
The Alliance clerk's sister brought me some tea.
”No! You did great!
When I entered the Guildmaster's office, Diaz let go and praised me. Take Fran's hand, and I'll get my head down.
”Thank you so much!
”Are you that happy?
”They were truly the nests of the Kranzel Adventurer Guild! You got rid of that for me! Keep your head down, too!
Sergio hates lesions.
”Have you seen him appraised?
”I did.”
”So for Rank A's sake, didn't you think he was weak?
I thought so. I was wondering if he would only have the strength of Rank B at best.
It's just that for the opposite reason that Fran couldn't get to Rank B, if he's weak but has a lot of merit, sometimes he'll be Rank A, right?
But they don't have that.
”Rank A and above is an area called hero. Absolute power is required. On top of that, it's a rank that can only be reached by overlapping achievements.”
I mean, whatever great feat you have, you can't admit it if you don't have the fighting power that Rank A deserves? Then why was he rank A?
”There it is. Why was that lunatic rank A?
”To be a Rank A Adventurer, there's like a vetting, isn't there? How did you get through that?
”Right. First of all, I have a few things I need to become a Rank A Adventurer. Accomplishments worthy of Rank A, strength worthy of Rank A, contribution to the Adventurer Alliance, and endorsement of more than 15 Alliance Masters in each branch. With them, you can be rank A for the first time.”
That sounds pretty difficult. Especially if you agree with more than 15 guild masters, or you're never going to get together?
”Normally...... That's where his skills become problematic.”
”skills?”
”Oh, do you guys know how many female guild masters there are in this country?
I could tell by the words.
”Heterosexual preference, heterosexual attraction, and then around the title of femicide”
”Yes. Seven female guild masters were poisoned with teeth”
Heterosexual preferences tend to gain preferences from the opposite sex, and heterosexual attraction seems to be a skill that has the effect of attracting heterosexual interest.
And the title of femicide has the effect that a woman who has a slight preference for the possessor is strongly attracted.
”He whispered his faint love, and he went Colo, didn't he?
'So, you admitted to Rank A?
”Well, I see it felt like a tribute. I put 40 of them in the younger generation, and some of the ladies tilted the guild.”
That's also...... But the seven of us haven't even reached the majority, have we?
”And then I used a lot of pressure from my parents, a lot of bribes, conveniences since Rank A, and a lot of different ways to collect votes.”
”Guild Bullshit?
'Are you getting worried?
”All I can say is I'm sorry there. The Alliance Master is still a human child, and some scumbags mix inside.”
”I don't know...”
Even the planet, politicians and police officers sometimes sin. It would mean the same thing.
”It's just that only three of the guild masters who admitted Sergio's promotion still remain. We're not just looking at each other.”
'Yet Sergio remained rank A?
”Unfortunately, if you become rank A, even the Alliance Master will be unable to help you. It gives you more say and a lot of discretion individually. Some say that once you cancel a promotion, it involves a guild ticket.”
It seems there are some types of people who care about precedents and stuff like that.
”That's why I kept an eye on them and waited for the scandal to happen. Unfortunately, it didn't seem like the kind of crap that could chase him down.”
'But isn't it like you did cuttlefish or something on a daily basis?
”They were bad this time, but it's usually legal. I'm a little overwhelmed, but I'll give you the chicken and the money, and then there won't be any accusations from adventurers.”
”Huh? Why? Is everyone crying to sleep even when they take their weapons?
”Well, you guys are strong. You think you're in power? Come on, come on! It feels like it. Do you think an ordinary Rank C or less adventurer can face and teeth a dangerous opponent who is a Rank A adventurer, a Viscount, with a Marquis shadow behind him, with constant bad rumors?
Well, I guess so. If you're bad, you're in danger of your life. Maybe I'm glad they took my weapon.
”And the trouble is that the Viscount is completely destroyed.”
”It's broken?
”What's so troublesome about that?
”I have the magic tools I use to uncover a sinner's sins, but I don't react when I'm unconscious of saying I've sinned.”
I see. That magic item won't respond to Serdio, will it? He thought his actions were serious and just.
”There was a title that said he was a regular magician?
