Chapter 60 - v2c21 The Beginning (1/2)

—Raust—

「……Huh?」

Zieg-san reacted with visible surprise on his face, he blinked several times in disbelief.

His reaction was the best proof that he didn’t believe me when I said I wanted to become a world-class adventurer.

Despite his reaction, I didn’t feel annoyed by that.

Because I knew his reaction was a matter of course.

If, instead, someone else told me they wanted to become a world-class adventurer, then I probably would have the same reaction as Zieg-san.

The period I trained under Master and Ronaldo-san was a couple of months.

The experience I had in that short period of time was enough for me to know about their inhumane ability.

For Zieg-san who had spent far more time under those inhumane masters, he knew better of their abilities that he knew I wouldn’t be able to reach them.

Knowing that, I couldn’t blame Zieg-san for reacting like that.

However, he had a big misunderstanding.

「…Zieg-san, I don’t want to be like masters.」

After hearing the words I said to clear the misunderstanding, Zieg-san looked at me with dubiously.

Like he was thinking the hell are you talking about?

「What are you talking about? World-class adventurers are like Raia-san and Master……-!」

But his reaction was only for a moment.

He asked one question after another for my confirmation, but then he stopped abruptly as if he remembered something.

Judging that he noticed his mistake from his expression, I nodded and opened my mouth.

「That’s true, masters are the only one that holds the title of the world-class adventurer, but, the condition to become one is not being as strong as masters.」

Zieg-san’s misunderstanding derived from how the title of world-class adventurer being seen as.

Certainly, there are no other world-class adventurers besides masters, and the title itself is unofficial in the guild.

Because of that, the title of world-class adventurers is now regarded as an alias for masters

That is why the title is equated with masters, and many people think that the condition to become world-class adventurers is to have strength rivaling masters.

「To become a world-class adventurer, no, to be recognized as a world-class adventurer like masters, there is only one exact condition.」

But I knew it was a mistake.

After all, I heard the condition directly from masters.

Recalling the memory of that time, I opened my mouth.

「「Defeat a mutated super-high difficulty monster with only one party.」」

The next moment, our words overlapped.

Yes, that was the minimum requirement to be recognized as a world-class adventurer I directly heard from masters.

「…Ahh, I think the talk about this with Master had come up before, the condition to be recognized as a world-class adventurer.」

Zieg-san closed his eyes as if looking for a distant memory while saying so.

Apparently, unlike Master, Ronaldo-san didn’t make it clear for Zieg-san.

If so, it was natural that he didn’t remember it right away.

「Right, you have defeated a super-high difficulty monster.」

After a while, Zieg-san raised his head and said so while staring at me.

Yes, as a result of good fortune, Narsena and I had passed the line that our Masters called the minimum requirement to become a world-class adventurer.

「Well, I know we won’t become world-class adventurers right away.」

Naturally, even if we meet that requirement, we won’t be immediately recognized as one.

No matter how much masters approve, the general recognition for world-class adventurers is to be on the same level as masters.

「If we can gather achievements by defeating super-high difficulty monsters from here on out, it won’t be difficult to be recognized as world-class adventurers. And then we will gain the achievement of being the fastest adventurer in the Labyrinth City that become world-class adventurers.」

That’s why I want to stay in this Labyrinth City that’s said to have the largest labyrinth.

All are so Narsena’s parents will accept me.

Finally, with me as an intermediary, I wanted Narsena to be accepted by her parents.

「You have thought his far…」

Zieg-san’s eyes widen in astonishment from hearing the enthusiasm in my words.

His gaze on me was filled with no small amount of admiration.

I gazed back at him and opened my mouth.

「It’s not a big deal…… All of this, is just me forcing my selfishness.」

I knew that trying to mend Narsena’s relationship with her parent was just my selfishness.

After all, Narsena never said she wanted to make up with her parents.

And for my plan to succeed, I need to continue as an adventurer.

Adventurers whose life always at risk.

Normally, after saving some amount of money, adventurers would open a shop or went back to the countryside and left the dangerous job that was an adventurer.

That was the ideal of many adventurers, yet I have no plan to stop being an adventurer yet.

It wasn’t that the idea to stop adventuring never crossed my head.

Even now, even if we divided our saving half-and-half, each of us would still have more than what an adventurer could earn in a lifetime.

I probably could play around for the rest of my life.

Despite knowing that, I still decided to spend my time with Narsena as an adventurer.

I knew the way to leave the dangerous life of adventuring and yet I still prioritize my own feeling.
