The Death Mage That Doesnt Want A Fourth Time 76 (2/2)

“Weto take at least thisis for the sake of exterraceful fools fro away at our Hartner Duchy like parasites, for the sake of the people and for the sake of Lord Lucas!”

As Vandalieu had thought, Karcan didn’t acknowledge the refugees who had escaped the Sauron Duchy, including those living in the cultivation villages, as people of his own nation

The ‘people’ that he referred to were the people of the Hartner Duchy; those from other duchies such as the Sauron Duchy were essentially foreigners

With that said, Karcan’s true motive was that he was iful in Lucas’s name, so even if Lucas did succeed the family, Karcan wouldn’t achieve the social status he wanted

“My coo on an expedition next month,” said Karcan “At that tie and then go on to attack the rest of the cultivation villages Froto-dono, I will have you join us as well”

“M-me?”

“To ensure that we do not leave anyone alive, we need you, Froto-dono, as you know your way around the villages fro to preach to them If this succeeds, you will beco on you”

“O-of course”

Despite the o involved in a deeper conspiracy than he had counted on, Froto couldn’t turn back now

Vandalieu, who had inadvertently put a stop to all of Karcan’s plans, was passing through thetowards the Adventurers’ Guild

His objective was, of course, to register as an adventurer

Things have changed after I learned various things, but now is the perfect opportunity to register

Now that it was clear that the Hartner Duchy had betrayed Taloshei the titan slaves fro exploited

He had already contacted Taloshei this; Borkus was apparently so furious that he wanted to invade the duchy right this moment

How reliable he was

The reason Vandalieu was still registering as an adventurer despite this was because if he let this chance pass hiht be years away

Vandalieu had also disposed of the Vampire that had been stationed here by the Pure-breed Va hi the city of Niarki had become his puppet

I’ll quickly register, leave the city right away, regroup with Eleanora and the others, wait for night to fall and then fly towards the duchy’s capital

Either way, Vandalieu needed to wait for nightfall before flying, so there was no problem with this

It would be problematic if he had a clichéd encounter with delinquent adventurers, though

“Still, it’s good that I learned that there are a lot of things I need to work as an adventurer To think that I’d at least need a house”

Normally, adventurers wouldn’t need a house to work as an adventurer New adventurers used cheap lodging houses, while many veteran adventurers used inns that they were familiar with as their bases

However, Vandalieu had circumstances unlike those of other adventurers in that he had Borkus, Zadiris, Sam and Eleanora to worry about

They wouldn’t be treated as “people” They were “monsters” that Vandalieu had tamed As such, Vandalieu couldn’t use an inn

It was si houses on Earth that didn’t allow their custo pets And in this case, they weren’t pets, but monsters that were feared more than wild beasts

If they were small monsters like Pixies, there probably wouldn’t be any problems, and for those like Eleanora and Zadiris who looked like norht work out at certain inns But it would certainly be impossible for Knochen and Bone Man

Of course, there were adventurers ere tamers, but when they used inns, they left their monsters in barns Whether they were Goblins, Kobolds or even Ghouls, they would have to stay in barns

Because of this, if Vandalieu wanted to use an inn, Borkus, Bone Man, and even Eleanora and the Ghouls if they weren’t allowed to use a guest room, would have to be treated like horses and kept in a barn

Truly savage behavior

Though after realizing this last night, Eleanora had prepared herself for this, thinking, “To humiliate myself in such a way before anyone other than Vandalieu-sama… But if it is for Vandalieu-sama’s sake”

“In order to work as an adventurer, I need to attend the adventurers’ school, but even before that, I need to take ather treasures fro house,” said Vandalieu “Huh, isn’t it normally the other way around?”

It was strange to think that in order to become an adventurer and make achievements for himself, he needed to become rich and acquire a house But if he worked alone, he couldn’t acquire Experience Points due to his curse, and he wouldn’t be able to endure the loneliness

On top of that, he had no confidence that he would be able to gain companions to form a party at the adventurers’ school

A house was necessary after all

“Even if I do use money to buy a house, I can’t walk around cities publicly with everyone unless I receive collars and necklaces that prove that I’ve ta an adventurer is so troublesoht aloud as he passed a deserted Church of Vida and arrived at the Adventurers’ Guild building

It was a two-story building built in an area so large that the branch in the Seventh Cultivation Village, the entire jack-of-all-trades store, could fit inside it dozens of tiion’s lord, it was as in the city of Niarki

The buildings for Guild branches in cities really are big Even Vandalieu, who normally lived in the royal castle of Talosheim, was impressed

He gave a short prayer, hoping that he wouldn’t get into a fight with some delinquent adventurer

“Let’s go”

He gathered his resolve and opened the door to the Guild The time of day where the Guild would be packed with adventurers looking for requests to accept had passed, so there were few adventurers present There were receptionists sitting at the reception counter, and behind the paperwork

Vandalieu proceeded silently and hts

It seeht, but he was mistaken It was simply that most of the adventurers hadn’t even noticed him, and even if they did notice hiht with a child like him

Most children who coister, G-class adventurers or students of the adventurers’ school

And if someone were to say, “You think a brat like you can be an adventurer?!” and pick a fight with a G-class adventurer who did work likethe Guild, they would receive only scornful laughter

Things would only be ht with a student enrolled at the adventurers’ school Positions as instructors at the adventurers’ school are popular for adventurers who have retired frohts for no reason and try to threaten others, they would only anger their seniors and make it harder for themselves to be reemployed in the future

So, the cliché scenario of the “boorish senior adventurer who picks fights with newbies” only occurs when new adventurers graduate the adventurers’ school and begin their real adventures Alternatively, it is often the child who starts the fight

There are indeed people in all lines of ho are so hopelessly low that common sense is lost on them, but… they wouldn’t be present in every Guild branch at every hour of the day

Perhaps in the sense that there were no such people currently in the Niarki branch of the Guild, Vandalieu’s prayer had indeed been heard

“Excuseout to a receptionist “I want to register as an adventurer”

“! A-ah, yes” It seemed that the receptionist hadn’t noticed hi hi hie, race and specialties if you have any Do you need someone to fill it out on your behalf?” she asked

“No, it’s not a probles should I write under specialties?”

He had heard about the application process for the Adventurers’ Guild of two hundred years ago fro shi+eld-nation fros were different in different time periods and different nations It was best toout the form correctly

“For specialties, you should write things like any training you have received from former adventurers, affinity for attributes, your qualities and any unique skills you possess,” said the receptionist

“Even my unique skills? Don’t you find out my skills when you issue my Guild Card?” Vandalieu asked

“Yes, that is correct, but your skills that are revealed when you register are kept confidential, so they will only be known to the staff istration When you write your unique skill in the specialties field of the form, it is a declaration of your intent torequests,” the receptionist explained

For exaranted the ability to deal extra daainst certain species of on Slayer, the Guild would set up requests suitable for that skill and introduce appropriate clients to that adventurer

But if the adventurer wanted to keep the skill a secret, it would basically be sealed within the mind of the staff member

It seeh… like they would actually tell the Guild Master, or so like that

The Adventurers’ Guild was run by people after all, so it was probably best not to rely too much on their confidentiality policy

In fact, though Vandalieu was unaware of this, a Guild Master of the Adventurers’ Guild in the Mirg shi+eld-nation had fraudulently promoted the Green Wind Spear Riley at Earl Thomas Palpapek’s demand

Of course, there were soed their branches in a wholesome manner, but there were also those who did not

In that case, I can just leave the specialties field blank

Vandalieu would dash out of the city after registering He sub in only the fields for his nae

“This is…” For some reason, the receptionist opened her eyes wide as she took the for to what you have written in this form, you are a seven-year-old Dhampir Is that correct, Vandalieu-san?”

Even if Vandalieu tried to deceive her, his real nae and race would be revealed once his Guild Card was issued So, of course, he had filled in the form with complete honesty

“Yes, that’s right,” he told the receptionist

I suppose Dhaht as he re her that he really was a Dhampir

“Then… I’rave expression as she saw his crimson and purple odd-colored eyes

Vandalieu blinked a few times, bewildered by this unbelievable response But the receptionist’s expression didn’t change, nor did she correct her statement

“Why is that?” he asked “I thought that those under the age of ten registering to become adventurers just need to take a simple test?”

If the examination was passed… If the applicant was able to deence and decision- ability equivalent to that of a ten-year-old child, they would be registered as a G-class adventurer As for whether they could becoe adventurers, it would be decided after they graduated from the adventurers’ school

At least, that was hoas supposed to be, but –

“Under the joint signature of Lord Belton and the Guild Master of the Guild headquarters of the Hartner Duchy, the rules have been changed Children under the age of ten who have inate froht to sit the examination,” the receptionist told him “Of course, this includes Dhampirs”

The systeister as an adventurer in the Hartner Duchy until he reached the age of ten where he would be able to attend the adventurers’ school – another three years or so

Kasim and his friends hadn’t mentioned it, but they hadn’t intentionally kept it from Vandalieu They were all hue were Beast-people, titans, Dark Elves and people of s like Vampires or Lamias were considered to be s with their hu more prominent than their monster ones were a minority

Kasi the change

And now that he thought about it, Vandalieu realized that he had never told them that he was seven years old Because he had decapitated a Goblin Barbarian and used advanced life-attribute ic (or at least, Kasim and the others believed this) to heal Ivan, it wouldn’t be surprising if they had assumed that Vandalieu was older than he looked

“I… see”

“Yes And ruain this year so that such individuals will not have the right to enroll at the adventurers’ school…” the receptionist wore a regretful expression as her words trailed off

If what she said came to pass, Vandalieu wouldn’t be able to becoht years, never mind three

“I… see…” said Vandalieu, trying to suppress his shock in order to think

It was unpleasant that Lord Belton and the Guild Master had et hi the way that Talosheim and the titans had been betrayed, Vandalieu would never forget this

But there would be no ive up and leave the city

And once he dealt with the matters at hand, he would siister as an adventurer in another duchy

He wouldn’t wait eight years It would be fine to register next year or the year after Nor in this world to go to another duchy (which was essentially another country), even if that child was in a trading city near a border between duchies But Vandalieu would be able to do so easily by flying through the sky

This wasn’t a large problee problem

But so on a second, will you?”

The receptionist in front of Vandalieu and even the other employees and adventurers started to stir in commotion as their attention was drawn to the voice’s owner

Vandalieu opened his eyes ithout turning around

He had heard this voice somewhere before
