Other World Assassin Life of a Man who was a Shut-in

I wonder who the hell that girl was. It was just a little too similar to others. Speaking of which, you said Maria had a sister in this city. Does it matter...

Well, can't I help worrying about this place? Mr. Grace might be waiting, let's just go to the guild.

After a few minutes of walking, we were able to reach the guild safely.

I'll open the door and try to get inside.

Hmm, that's similar to the liquor store I saw. There are some tables and there's a beautiful receptionist in the back. There is a large number of items beside it, such as bulletin boards, which are probably requisitions.

A familiar person entered sight as he observed various things inside the guild.

She looks a lot like Marie I bumped into earlier. That girl apparently had errands on her guild, too, coincidentally. Maybe I'll talk to you later...

"Hey Yuma, over here, over here! We'll finish this to the bandits first!

I heard a familiar voice. It's Mr. Grace. Looks like he got to the guild before me.

I walk up to Mr. Grace.

"Sorry I'm late"

"No, I don't mind! Let's get this over with."

"That's right."

And I told the receptionist in front of me,

"Excuse me. I came to get a bounty because I crusaded the bandits? I think his name was Lardo the Red Eyed."

Then the receptionist sister seemed a little surprised but seemed convinced to see Mr. Grace next door.

"You defeated that red-eyed Lardo? Oh, Mr. Grace knocked you down."

"No, I knocked him out."

"Don't lie to me. The bandit is not weak enough to defeat a kid like you who hasn't even become an adventurer yet."

What is this receptionist's sister? It's a hit that I haven't been an adventurer yet, but I'm just telling the truth. Mr. Grace said he was thinking about it.

"Hey, you know, it's true that this guy defeated red-eyed Lardo. I let him go. That's what he took down for me.

The receptionist sister who heard that,

"Also, I'm sorry. Hurry up. I'll bring the bounty. But do you have any evidence of crusading before that?

Hmm. If it's a corpse, it's in the item box, but it's not up from my neck. If I let something like that out here, I'm going to make a fuss...

"Show him Lardo's arm, Yuma. There's got to be something in his arm that's like a tattoo that's not easy to maneuver. Let me see that."

I see. When I heard that, I cleverly removed only Lardo's arm from the item box and showed it to the receptionist sister.

"I did confirm this. I'll bring you the bounty, so please wait a minute."

This is going to be okay.

"Thank you, Mr. Grace."

"I'm not thanking you for what you've done."

Then a few minutes later, the receptionist sister seems to have come back with a bounty.

"Thank you for waiting. This will be the two gold coins of the bandit Lardo's bounty. Please accept."

Gold coin!? You've never seen it before. The fact that silver coins are for ten copper coins means that gold coins are probably for ten silver coins. I didn't think you'd get it like this.

"Thank you."

This brings the matter of the bandits to an end. The rest of my errands...

"Excuse me. May I also ask you to register as an adventurer"

"You weren't an adventurer after all. It's about the adventurer registration, but of course you're welcome. So can you tell me your name and level, then your profession, etc."

Hmm, name and level are fine. What should I do with my profession? Um, would Assassin be okay? Is vocational assassination okay...

"Uh, name is Yuma, please. Level is 29. Occupation is in Assassin."

The receptionist's sister was a little surprised,

"Er, my name is Yuma, and the level is...... 29! Amazing. Indeed, this would also convince me that I defeated that Lardo. And the profession, Assassin? That's a rare profession. What are you good at?

"It's an assassination."

"Huh..."

"Ah, no... uh, you're good at close-range combat like a swordsman or something!

"Oh, I see."

Danger, danger...

"Yes. Then this is the end of what we need to do. I think we can have an adventurer card in a few minutes. Let me explain the rank of the adventurer by then."

"I understand."

"Okay. First of all, the rank of the Adventurer is eight different from the F to SS rank, and everyone who starts the Adventurer starts from the F rank. From there, the rank will increase by doing the request and achieving the corresponding results. Up to the A-rank, you can only go up with your combat abilities, but from there on ahead, specially, you can go up by taking the exam. May I go this far?

"Yes. It's okay."

"Then go on. Keep in mind that if a request fails in a row, the rank may drop. Then, please understand that you can accept requests of one rank over your own rank, but not more. And finally, Master Yuma has the strength to defeat the bandit Lardo. So if Yuma wants it, she can increase the rank to C. What will you do?

Huh. Everyone says it starts with an F, but does it go up to a C all at once? Does that mean that the man named Lardo was famous? Well, there's no particular reason to say no.

"If you're going to give it to me, please do."

"Okay. From today on, then, Master Yuma will be a C-rank adventurer. Please wait until you have your Adventurer Card."

Well. You're done with your errands. What will you do until you have an Adventurer Card...... let's see it on the Request Bulletin Board.

I moved to the front of the bulletin board to see the F-rank request first.

Hmm, to collect herbs, help move houses. To clean the city...... oh! Slime Crusade! I knew you were in this world! Don't be a little tense!

But that's just the lowest rank. Subtle requests.

You were right to raise it to C-rank. This is...

Well, let's take a look at the C-rank request, too, when I thought so.

"Why can't you take the request!

Such a scream came into my ear. This voice...

"So if you do that, you need at least about Adventurer Rank B. But Grace, the only B-rank in this guild, is currently repairing his weapon. There are no adventurers who can take that request right now……"

"But even while he's doing this, he's dying! Please! I'll pay you as much as I can!

It's Marie's girl after all. But what is wrong with that panic?

I decided to ask Mr. Grace, who was nearby.

"Mr. Grace, what the hell is this noise?

"Oh Yuma. No, this young lady did. She wants me to take a request. However, the difficulty of the request is equivalent to the B rank. So I'm the only B-rank in this guild right now, but I can't take the request because I don't have any weapons. That's why I'm here."

"I see. So I was wondering, what was the content of the request?

"Yeah, it's a crusade for Cocatrice. I have the heart of Cocatrice, to be precise."

I see. Well, Cocatrice is a troublesome demon who, as I've heard before, stones his body with poison. You'd have a lot of strength to defeat.

But don't worry, why does that girl need the heart of Cocatrice...

"Yeah, it sounds like my best friend is petrified. It's a rare illness, but once it's taken, there are medicines that can be cured. I'm talking about having the heart of Cocatrice to make that medicine."

I see. Honestly, if that girl was someone else in red, I might have left her alone.

But there is something that bothers me.

I found myself worried about walking in the direction of the girl.

"I'm sorry. Could it be that you know Mr. Maria from Barris Village?

The girl who heard it looked pretty surprised.

"Do you know about Aunt Maria!?

Again………

"Oh, look after me a while back. So I need to talk to you."

"What is it? Sorry, I'm in such a hurry right now, so I'd love to hear you say it briefly..."

"It's your request, I'll take it."

"... eh"

If this girl is someone I know in that family, I can't leave her alone.

That family did a good job...
