754 752 About Goldicia (1/2)
The closing ceremony managed to end when the Reids kingdom's leap and Demitris' hatchake turned it two and three times and ruined everything.
It feels like the Adventurer Alliance took the lead and ended it with Papa.
He was surprisingly fine when he wondered if he would hear complaints from the audience and guests who were thrown out of the arena to be kicked out.
I guess the excitement of being a witness to a major incident prevailed over that. Instead, there seemed to be a greater response to the awesome.
Me and Fran have already left the arena behind and moved to the Adventurer Alliance.
”Well, there's too much going on. Maybe even now, but congrats on winning”
”Thanks.”
”No, I guess the youngest winner with no complaints.”
While Diaz said so, he took out a small medal. Next to it, place a leather bag that sounds jarring from the inside.
It was a gold Wolmut medal showing the winner, with a prize of 200,000 gold.
”That's more luxurious than last year's third place medal.”
”Mm-hmm. This is Kinkira”
It's just for first place, the sculpture is complex, and it's gold-plated.
”No, I really wanted to give it to you at the closing ceremony, but the upset among the nobles was terrible. Especially the ministers with their heads, right and left.”
”Because Rank S has gone to an enemy country?
”It's not just a war problem. Even so, Demitris was extremely popular with the people. I've been hunting high-ranking warcraft everywhere for over 50 years.”
”I see.”
”There are some things that are nice to the average person. Because I'm a free man, I'm also honest with my conscience. Often they try to protect the weak by dealing with nobles”
There are many aristocrats and adventurers who suffer the victimization of Demitris' sideliness, so I guess from the folk I can only see the good part.
”When it comes to going to an enemy country, there may be dissatisfaction from the people. Even as a guild, I was very helpful to that guy who would go ahead and take the ultra-high difficulty request...”
”Well, adventurers like you go from you to the dead, you won't be”
”But you can't even ask me to do something about it. Don't you think I can't do that?
”Mm. I can't.”
”You can't.”
There won't be anyone who can control that old man's behavior.
”That's right. Well, leave this story alone, what are you gonna do after this? Hilt, we were talking about crossing into Goldicia with you.”
”Mmm...”
”Oh, you seem to be worried.”
”Mm-hmm. Could this country and the Reids kingdom be a war?
”Are you going to join us?
I look at Fran with the kind of eyes Diaz explores. I'm worried about it, too. Honestly, I don't want you to participate in a war.
Somewhere before we watched, Fran with a troubled face opened his mouth.
”... I don't know. I hate the Reids Kingdom. But I feel different about war. However, you don't have to attack, you can protect it. Aretha or something.”
”War doesn't involve kids your age. Well, I don't think Aretha's defense would be that bad... Besides, it won't be a war for a while.”
”Really?
This time, even as a country, it should be in the form of mud painted on your face. I also feel it's natural for the country to retaliate against Reids...
”It's not a fight between adventurers. I'm going to, and it's not something I can do instantly. If we're going to do this, we're going to have to fit in with countries other than Reidos. Well, would it take months just for diplomacy and preparation? I know you're never gonna do anything about it.”
”Yes...... Fine then. I go to Gordicia. Representing Weena Lane”
”I think it's good. I think winning a militant tournament will increase the number of loud solicitations. In that regard, if you cross to Goldicia, it will be a little. Besides, it's just fine.”
About your Rank Up.
”Rank Up! Can you be an A?
”No, I can't do it right now on a boulder, can I?
That would be so. Becoming a Rank A should require a lot of experience besides combat.
As I've been told before, my experience in negotiating with nobles and commanding battles. Achieved in his knowledge as an adventurer. Instruction on backwards. Various elements would be added.
Rather, it seems that a part other than combat power is important.
In that regard, Fran is in such a situation that he is almost out of combat.
No matter how much we beat Rank A, I didn't think that would get the Alliance Masters approval.
”In your case, no complaints about combat power. However, I don't have enough track record. Well, this could have been the exact same story before.”
”Mmm.”
”So, there are a few requests that are highly regarded by the Adventurer Alliance. Crusading demons with a threat A or higher, or gathering rare spiritual medicines. Among such highly regarded requests is the activity in Goldicia.”
A request to contribute globally would also boost the reputation of the Adventurer Alliance. Such requests are highly appreciated, and the battle in Goldicia seems to be among them.
”Not to the point of going for a bit, but with some combat effort, I also have to appreciate it as an guild. That's not going to get you up to Rank A, but I don't think it's going to hurt you to do it.”
”Okay. Good luck.”
