This Guy is C Rank?

Thank you for reading at bayabuscotranslation.com)

In the end, due to Maria’s persuasion, Leon was to be promoted to C Rank.

“If you become C Rank, the requests you can accept also increase. If it’s him, he’ll likely continue to produce results steadily, and if that happens, even that indecisive Guild Master will soon understand it was the correct judgment.” (Maria)

Even after the decision, the Guild Master was mumbling, “Was it really good, I wonder~”, but for Maria, she was able to achieve the minimum result, and for now, was satisfied.

“And my evaluation rises, and also a raise…… fufufu……” (Maria)

Leon, who had been promoted to C Rank, was for some reason summoned to the Guild a few days later. The Guild had gone out of its way to contact the inn where he was staying.

“Leon-kun, it seems you’ve been promoted to C Rank. Congratulations.” (Henriette)

“C Rank huh. I think he could’ve gone even higher, but, well, for that Guild Master, this is about as much as he could manage.” (Leon)

When he came to the Guild at the designated time, there was also the presence of Henriette and the others.

“So, today, Leon-han also got summoned, huh?” (Henriette)

“‘Also’?” (Leon)

“Yes. We were also summoned and came.” (Henriette)

Apparently, it wasn’t only Leon who was summoned. Other adventurers of C Rank or higher based in this city were also gathered. Altogether, perhaps around 20 people.

“The reason we called everyone here today is because we would like you all to accept a certain request.” (Staff)

A man who appeared to be a staff member began explaining to the gathered adventurers.

The content of the request was the investigation of a series of kidnapping incidents that had recently been occurring frequently.

Kidnapping incidents themselves were not rare. Selling off abducted women and children as slaves was an illegal human trafficking operation, which was an important funding source for many underground organizations. However, in Libert, crackdowns were strict, and it was a very safe town. The power of the underground organizations was also weak. Therefore, kidnappings were something that rarely occurred. But including attempted cases, they had been occurring frequently lately. Moreover, not only women and children, but even young men, who should be harder to abduct, had also disappeared.

Naturally, as the lord governing the city, this was not something that could be overlooked.

“This request is from the lord-sama. Due to its importance in maintaining the city’s public order, the Guild judged it a case that should be given priority, and thus called this meeting.” (Staff)

At that moment, one of the adventurers raised a hand.

“If it’s investigation, I think it’s quantity over quality. Looking at it, it’s mostly high-ranking adventurers, but shouldn’t all the lower-ranked adventurers be mobilized instead?” (Adventurer)

“A very reasonable opinion.” (Staff)

The staff nodded at that, then said.

“In fact, even before the request from the lord-sama, we had received requests from persons related to the victims, and Guild adventurers were conducting investigations. However, currently, several among them have gone missing.” (Staff)

At the staff’s words, the adventurers stirred.

Of course, adventurers often took on multiple requests at the same time, so it was possible something had happened during another request. But when it came to multiple people, it was hard to call that a coincidence.

“That is why we imposed the restriction of C Rank or higher.” (Staff)

“I see.” (Adventurer)

The earlier adventurer nodded in understanding.

“Oi oi, if that’s the case, then why are these brats here?” (Adventurer)

At that, a different adventurer raised his voice. His gaze was directed at Leon and the others.

Have I seen him somewhere before? ……Ah, the adventurer from the other day.

Leon remembered. It was the B Rank adventurer named Gris, who had picked a fight with him recently.

“He is also a C Rank adventurer.” (Staff)

“Ah? This guy is C Rank?” (Gris)

With a “Don’t joke with me” kind of attitude, Gris snorted through his nose.

“To promote a brat like this to C Rank, it’s like this Guild is declaring its rank evaluation is messed up!” (Gris)

“Understood, huh. In other words, the reason you haven’t been promoted to A Rank is because of the Guild, huh?” (Kanae)

“What did you say?” (Gris)

In response to Kanae’s sarcasm, Gris narrowed his eyes.

Henriette opened her mouth.

“Gris, Leon-kun’s ability is something we can guarantee.” (Henriette)

“…” (Gris)

Gris fell silent for a moment, but still, he didn’t back down easily this time.

“…Hah, I see. In other words, you put pressure on the Guild, huh?” (Gris)

“I haven’t done such a thing, nor do I need to. Because he has the ability deserving of a C Rank adventurer, no, even greater ability than that.” (Henriette)

“…Tch.” (Gris)

Gris clicked his tongue in annoyance and glared at the twins.

“So, what about those brats over there? You’re telling me they have the strength of a C Rank too?” (Gris)

Arc and Iris hid their bodies behind Leon. But in defiance, they both snarled and glared back at Gris, “Uuu”.

『Leon, should I kill him? 』 (Sura)

“Don’t kill him, don’t kill him.” (Leon)

Leon said.

“These two are my contracted familiars. It’s not strange for a tamer to be accompanied by their contracted familiars, right?” (Leon)

“…If they get in my way, I’ll kill them.” (Gris)

Gris spat out.

『So, are we killing him? 』(Sura)

“It’s just a threat, so don’t worry about it.” (Leon)

There was a small commotion, but the explanation was successfully completed, and they all dispersed. From now on, each person would proceed with their own investigation. However, it was declared that each of them would be required to stop by the Guild at least once a day for reporting. This was to ensure they could quickly respond if anything happened.

“Now then, is there anyone acting suspiciously?” (Leon)

Leon was walking through the streets, secretly observing the people passing by. For him, who had mastered the highest level of the thief-type job, missions like this were his specialty. The city had many people coming and going, but if there was a suspicious person, he would notice immediately.

“…Oh, I think I found someone already.” (Leon)
