Chapter 32 - Become an Adventurer (2)

There's nothing wrong with this, it's just that we surprised them.

"Who is that? Why are his eyes so scary? And again, why is he wearing a servant outfit?"

Within this Adventure Guild, everyone was focused on Leonard, and I couldn't help but sigh.

"Ah, it will be like this."

Leonard was too different, they wore armor and had normal eyes, while Leonard… That differentiated between him and them. Because of that, he became the topic of conversation between them.

Bother.

"Oi, Hiyori, do you have to come here to be an adventurer first?"

"Of course. We need to register first to get permission to become adventurers."

"Ah, it's like applying for a driver's license."

"What's that? Driving what?"

"Nothing. So, where should we register?"

"To the receptionist."

"Okay, let's go there."

After saying that, I ignored them and climbed the stairs to the 2nd floor.

Arriving there, I saw several people engrossed in their drinks.

"Ah. I will kill the dragon. I won't just let it go. I will be known as a Hero if I succeed in defeating the dragon. Hahaha."

"No, that's impossible, you're just drinking, Fauzan. So don't expect to beat the dragon."

"Hahaha. What are you saying? You'll see, I'll engrave my name all over this country—no, I'll engrave my name in this world. Hahaha."

We continued walking while overhearing some of the chatter there.

"Catrine..."

"Oh, Carolin."

They met again, approached each other.

We were escorted by Carolin to her locker.

"I expected this, you would choose to be an adventurer, Catrine."

"Y-Yeah, it can't be helped. And coincidentally, Ryuki also wanted to be an adventurer, so I followed him."

"Oh, you also want to be an adventurer, Ryuki-san?"

I just nodded, and she smiled at me.

"It's good that Catrine has someone to look after her. Alright then, please fill out this registration."

She handed me the paper, so did Hiyori. However, Leonard was not given the paper, and I asked about it.

"He also wants to be an adventurer, why don't you give him one too?"

"Oh, sorry. Here, please."

Receiving the same paper, I immediately gave these two papers to Leonard.

"I can't write the language of this world, so please fill it in for me."

"Yes, My Lord."

He should be able to fill out the registration form given the fact that he lives here. However, seeing Hiyori suddenly changing her face and aiming at the paper, I don't think Leonard can write either.

"What writing is this? Why are you writing this…"

"Ah, that is the language I often use when writing."

Glancing at the two papers in Hiyori's hands for a moment, seeing the writing that was red and shining, I turned around and didn't feel guilty for telling him to.

"Just let me fill out this form."

Hiyori filled out the three registration forms without me asking. She was quick to act before a problem occurred. That's something good about her. I like that from her.

Looking at them, my eyes met the eyes of a large man wearing half armor, whether intact or not.

"Oh, isn't that Class E? Hahaha. What is this? Does he also want to be an adventurer like us? Isn't that inappropriate for him?"

It seems that he knows my abilities. It turned out to be true, a rumor was so easy to come by in any world, that they judged according to the rumor.

I just sighed and sat down in the chair closest to me, but he kept on blabbering.

"Look, he didn't even respond to what I said. That's right, that person's strength is at Class E."

"Oi, Fauzan, you are exaggerating. Stop it! He killed the crocodile monster, so you should thank him."

"What for? Do you believe that Class E seems capable of killing that crocodile monster? Hahaha. That's where possible! It's just an exaggerated lie. I'm sure adventurers are helping him there."

"Oi, Fauzan, stop it!"

His friend tried to calm him down, but suddenly, he stood up with his glass raised.

"DO YOU BELIEVE THAT?"

He shouted, luring people to look at me.

Since I have to calm down here, I burned a cigarette and sighed.

Things like this happen often, often when I was in the army, many judged me to be weak because I was already a major at a young age. Yet if they knew what had happened to me, they would have acknowledged me. That way, they won't be like this to me.

And this time, this was the case in this world, judging me just by my class ability alone.

It's annoying.

As I put the cigarette between my lips, with the blink of my eye, I saw a black shadow pass by me and arrive in front of the person.

"You seem to have spoken something bad to My Lord."

"Hah? Who are you? Are you the service?"

"Yes, I am his loyal servant."

"HAH? Did you hear that? This person must be joking!"

Some people laughed, some just kept quiet, and some didn't care about this.

Leonard turned to me.

"My Lord, may I-"

"It's up to you, but don't let you kill him!"

"Thank you, My Lord."

After Leonard looked down at me, he turned around and stepped his right foot slightly forward.

With a snap of his fingers, and it sounded quite loud, the man fell, slumped over, and stuck in Leonard's shoe.

"You are inferior to me, so don't insult My Lord. Keep kissing my feet!"

"Eh? What's this?"

The man couldn't stand up, as if someone was pressing him.

Some people who saw it panicked, some ran away because of fear.

"Forgive my impudent friend. Forgive my impudent friend…"

The man's friend kept begging Leonard to free the man, but Leonard didn't care about that.

As time went on, the floor cracked more and more, and the man was already helpless.

Seeing the chaotic state, I stopped Leonard.

"Enough, that's all! I don't want to make up for it later."

"Very well, My Lord."

After freeing him, Leonard disappeared from there and appeared in front of me in the blink of an eye.

"How is it, My Lord? Have I served you well?"

"Yes thank you. At least you've made a scene in this place."

"Thank you for the compliment, My Lord."

"I'm not praising you."

Oh shit, I hope you don't have to pay compensation.

***

Looking at Hiyori and Carolin and the few people who fell silent at the sight of Leonard, I had expected this. Because after all, Leonard had wreaked havoc in this place.

"Don't blame him, I was the one! I have allowed him to finish off that person. So I'm the one in charge."

I must take responsibility for my subordinate's actions, and for allowing him to attack that man. Therefore, I can only surrender and think about the punishment that I will receive later.

"No, that's not it."

Carolin said something I didn't understand, then she suddenly whispered to Hiyori.

After that, Hiyori whispered to me.

"Carolin said, who exactly is he?"

"Why don't you talk to me directly?"

"It can not."

"Why?"

"She's scared of Leonard, that's why she just whispered to me and asked you this."

After nodding, I approached Carolin with Leonard.

"He is a member of my family."

"Yes, I am Leonard Valkoinen. By the words My Lord, I am a member of My Lord."

While saying that, he introduced himself by holding his chest.

"…O-Oh. I'm Carolin Simon, the receptionist here."

Carolin said that in a refuted voice, afraid of being wrong in front of Leonard. Even so, she still tried to stay calm when dealing with Leonard.

"So Simon, why did you come to see me?"

Maybe this was Leonard's way of making Carolin less afraid. I suspect that he read Carolin's mind, letting him know what had happened to Carolin.

"O-Oh, it's nothing. I'm just surprised that you have Gravity Magic. That magic very steps and high level, that's why I'm afraid that you will destroy this place."

"I wouldn't destroy this place if My Lord didn't permit me. Therefore, take it easy."

"Oh, thank goodness… I thought you would destroy this place with that magic."

Finally, she could calm down.

She turned around and told the people who were there that Leonard was harmless, not destroying this place.

She came back and immediately gave us 3 bags made of cloth.

"Here."

"What's this?"

"That is the capital for you guys to adventure. Since Catrine has already filled out your registration forms, the three of you are officially adventurers."

"Oh, I see. Turns out it didn't use the crystal ball."

"What's with the crystal ball? You seem displeased with the crystal ball for measuring your abilities, Ryuki-san."

As she said, I don't like the crystal ball. Because of the crystal ball, I was teased by those who caused this mess.

I feel like I need to destroy the crystal ball.

"Okay, I'll-"

Leonard immediately responded, making me stop him.

"No, it was just a joke. Can you not read my mind?"

"Very well, I will not read your mind, My Lord. Sorry for my impudence."

With this, the three of us became adventurers, seeking my purpose in life in this world. And luckily, I wasn't asked to compensate for this mess.
