Chapter 16 - Helping the Adventurer's Guild
At the end of the Knights guidance session, all the knights were completely exhausted. Surely, tomorrow they would hit muscle aches.
However, if they continued the training every day, they would surely become stronger.
After leaving the Knight Order's training field, I headed to the Adventurer's Guild. That was because I had received a request from Anna to come.
I opened the double door and entered the guild's building.
It was crowded with many adventurers. The staff members were likely to be busy. Requests might be coming in from various towns and villages today.
"Ah! Anna-san's father!"
A blonde receptionist called out.
"You were, the previous recept..."
"It's Monica!"
A blond receptionist??Monica introduced herself with a big smile.
"I'm Kaizer. Regards."
"Kaizer-san! I saw it. You have arm wrestling with Gardo-san during that time! You're so strong!"
"Haha. Thank you."
"Gardo was very disliked and hated by the receptionists. It was refreshing because Kaizer-san let him know his place!"
"That's good for them"
"What are you doing today?"
"I called by Anna??ooh. She's here."
"Papa! Just in the right place!"
When Anna in the back saw me, she gave a bright expression. I was beckoned by a little bit, and I walked up as I was told.
I asked, "Did something happen?"
"There's nothing we can do about it. We really don't have enough people. So, I have a request for Papa."
"A mission you want to I do?"
"Yes. A B-rank mission. It just rushed in a while ago, but now the adventurers who can accept this mission have already paid off. I called out the remaining candidate adventurers, but they just refused because it was not worthy. If we don't subdue it today, the emerging ogre may attack the nearby village and cause damage."
Anna scratched her hair.
"Aah enough! Although there are few adventurers who can receive high-ranking missions, and I have fed up with those strong selfish people!"
...She was having a hard time.
I was a former adventurer, so I knew Anna's feelings painfully.
Most adventurers had high pride. Besides, there were weirdos. The higher the rank, the stronger the tendency.
Serious adventurers like Elsa were quite rare.
"I understand. If that's the case, I'll go do that mission. If left alone, the villagers may be attacked."
“As expected of Papa! I’m saved!”
Anna put her hands together and made a gorgeous expression.
"Then, I will do all the procedures here. They will surely be pleased! Yes, I will hand you a map to the village."
"Oh... it's quite a nearby village."
I said after looking at the map.
"Then I'll go for a while. I'll be back at dinner."
"Yes. Be careful."
"Wa, wa, wait! Please wait!"
It was the blonde receptionist girl who came in in an interrupt.
"What's wrong? Monica-chan," Anna said.
"Kaizer-san, are you going to do the mission alone?! It's a subjugation mission for the Ogre!? Normally, it's needed four people!"
"Yes, cause there are not enough people."
"It's unreasonable! Anna-san, Isn't your father important for you!? Or perhaps, you actually holding a grudge!?"
"There's no way I hold any grudge against my Papa."
"If that's the case, It's more unreasonable! Just one person is impossible! At least one person more!"
"It's okay. Papa is strong. Even alone. Right?"
Anna turned her eyes on me.
"Well, Certainly, I do not have any mission now."
"Kaizer-san. Because you in front of my daughter, Anna. You act brave. Uh. Please let me pray for your soul at least...!"
"Can you not arbitrarily assume I've died?"
I smiled and left the Adventurer's Guild for the mission.
?
While referring to the map given by Anna, to the village where there was sighting information about Ogre.
I spoke to the villagers and stepped into the mountains.
I passed through the trees while sensing the signs.
I came across an ogre in less than 10 minutes.
It had two horns on the top of its head and had a strong body like a rock mountain. No light of sanity could be seen in the eyes. It was full of murder.
??Yosh. If it one was the case, I can be back before the dinner.
"Gugaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!"
?
I was back again to the Adventurer's Guild of the Royal Capital.
"Ah! Kaizer-san! You've back!"
Monica was running up.
"Fufuun. Kaizer-san. Now you're running away? You must be scared to challenge the Ogre alone, right!"
Monica, who had know-it-all's face, slapped my shoulder.
"You don't have to be ashamed. It's a life-threatening thing. Let's gather the personnel properly and make sure that you're ready to restart."
"You're just talking on the premise of failure..."
It was when I was smiling.
"Papa. Welcome back. It was quick."
"Unexpectedly, I was able to find the Ogre sooner??this is the keepsake. It took longer to dismantle than to knock it down."
I took out two horns from the leather bag I hung on my waist.
It grew from the forehead of the Ogre.
"Ueeeeeee!?"
Looking at our side, Monica was so surprised that she seemed about to jump.
"Kaizer-san, did you really beat the Ogre?! By only you, in this short time!?"
"Wasn't I have said that? Papa is strong"
Anna had a proud look.
As a father, it was all about helping my daughter.
