136-Episode 8: Both Avant-Garde And Rear-Guard Can Be Done

The dungeons are inhabited by numerous demons and dangerous traps.

Maybe Mira is overconfident in her own strength because of her profession, and she's challenged a hierarchy that doesn't match her abilities.

In order to pursue her sister, I've decided to become an adventurer as well.

But in order to do so, I'm told that I have to take a test.

Three days later, the day of the test finally arrived.

Of course, I didn't spend the last three days in a daze.

He had been searching the city and staking out the adventurer's guild.

But I couldn't even find them, let alone get any information.

They must be hiding in the dungeon after all.

In one corner of the Adventurer's Guild's spacious entrance, a large number of people, including me, had gathered there.

There are probably more than thirty of them.

It seemed that these were all the people who were going to take the test this time.

All right, it's time to go. I'm going to explain the outline of the test now. I will only say this once, so listen carefully.

He saw that all the stern, middle-aged men, probably skilled adventurers, had gathered together and proceeded with the exam.

The test is divided into the first and third tiers. I'm sure you'll be able to find a great deal more information on the subject. Well, good luck next time.

It's like a sieve.

Perhaps the content of the test will become more and more difficult.

The first test will be quite simple. Now, I'm going to run through the city. You are to follow me. And only those who can follow me to the end will be able to move on to the next test. It's a test to test the minimum physical strength required for an adventurer.

'However,' the examiner continued.

'You'll have to carry the load on your back.

Men who looked like staff members carried a backpack with them, looking quite heavy.

From the looks of it, there are two different sizes.

In consideration of the difference in physical strength, the weight will vary depending on whether we are the vanguard or the rear guard.

Apparently, the vanguard is carrying a fifty kilogram load and the rear guard is carrying a thirty kilogram load.

''Wow, this is pretty heavy........''

I don't know if you're going to walk or run with this thing on your back, but...?

Lifting the luggage, the candidates frown and moan.

''Haha, from my point of view, this is just like not carrying anything on your back.

On the other hand, the one who sniffed and lightly lifted the fifty kilos of luggage was a big, muscular, Mohawked man.

Hmm.

It's called making a difference between the vanguard and the rear guard, but I'm applicable to both of them.

....................So I'm supposed to carry both?

Well, it wouldn't be much weight for this.

I carried fifty kilos on my back and brought the thirty kilos in front of my body.

'Hey, dude, what are you doing?'

Then the examiner blamed him.

'No, I can be both the vanguard and the rear guard. I thought it would be better if I carried both.

"...those guys usually only need the heavier ones...

Is that so?

To begin with, people who can do both are very valuable. If you pass, you'll be competing with many different parties. That alone is enough to get you through the first round. ........By the way, ?Magic Swordsman???Or is it the Holy Knight?

No, I'm not.

...What?

There was a lot of laughter from those around me.

"Hey, hey, it's "Unemployed"!

How can an unemployed person be an adventurer?

"Pupu, you can't do vanguard or rearguard, that's a mistake!

The big man from earlier approaches and laughs as he looks down at me.

'Kukku, you don't have to force yourself to have so much, you know??You can barely stand still, can you?

I'm not pushing myself.

In fact, they weigh about eighty kilos together, which is about a margin of error.

You're a nobody, but you've got the chops to show for it. Well, at least you'll reach your goal before the sun sets.

Then the candidates line up, led by the examiner.

'You're going to drop out soon anyway.

Get to the back.

When he said that, I was pushed to the back of the pack.

It wouldn't make much difference which position we started in, and I'd be in the back of the pack quietly.

'Then let's get going,'

As the examiner started to run, the candidates followed in unison.

''Ko, this is........''

Isn't that a bit fast...?

Normally, it wouldn't be much of a pace, but with all this weight, it's going to be tough...!

Now I won't be able to follow that "no-job" thing from earlier.

One of the candidates, who looked back at the tail end of the line in amusement, rolled his eyes.

'He's running without a care in the world!

?

I'm walking as fast as I am walking, and that's not going to make me catch my breath.

If the pace is like this forever, I could run forever.

I doubt anyone will drop out of this, right?

I was only a mile or so into the run.

One of the people in front of me started to lag behind and dropped back to the back of the line where I was.

''d*mn I didn't expect it to be this hard in the first round........!

He's breathing hard and sweating.

He looks quite painful.

Maybe he was in bad shape from the start.

"You shouldn't push yourself too hard if you're not feeling well, you know?

Oh, shut up.??Whew.....

In the end, when he was more than ten meters behind, that candidate stopped.

Furthermore, starting with this one person, one by one, people start dropping out.

Since I'm at the very back of the line, they all fall off past me.

''I'm at my limit.......''

Hahaha.... why is the Unemployed still here...?

Then, in the blink of an eye, more than ten people dropped out, and when we were down to about twenty

All right. All right, let's pick up the pace.

The lead examiner declared that.
