Madman in a Fantasy World

45. C grade promotion test

Since returning to the Empire from the Earldom, we’ve had an uneventful week.

I didn’t work for a week, I just played.

One day, the me of my previous life forced myself to sleep all day.

The reason why that was possible was that the reward money, which was originally 15 silver coins, was tripled, and the fact that 3 gold coins came to us as an unexpected urgent request also played a part.

what? If you don’t work hard and play with money, you’ll use it up in a short time?

There is a bank in this world, so interest is not accrued, and there is no installment savings, so what’s the point of earning money hard?

Anyway, most of the people here are the type of people who live day by day.

Anyway, after playing and eating for a week, now I have to go back to work.

So I came to the adventurer’s guild after a long time.

“welcome······.”

“Why are you so low pressure?”

Adela felt somewhat sluggish.

“I’m sure… Thanks to that, it was a little more comfortable.”

“Who is harassing our Adela? Just say it. I, a prospective C-class adventurer, will give you a scolding.”

“·······.”

Then Adela stared at me.

what? Did I inject some hormones without my knowledge?

Unfortunately, this hormone is not something I can control, so I can’t seem to stop being fascinated.

“Adela. I’m sorry, but I’m a bit of a powerless person…”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, but I feel bad for some reason.”

You feel bad for some reason…?

“Is it Adela’s day?”

“…are you crazy?”

“No.”

It’s not even that day, so why are you so sensitive?

“Rather than that, what did you do when you went to the county, did you come with a girl behind you?”

“A girl?”

I turned my head and looked behind me.

Behind me is Luna as usual, and Yui, a new high-class slave I picked up this time.

But at first glance, Yui looked like a child, so I guess she thought she was a kid.

He didn’t even know he was the oldest here.

“It’s not a newly picked high-end oar… it’s a party member.”

“We don’t say we picked up a party member…”

what can’t

“Rather than that. We caught the iron golem, is it possible to test for a C-level promotion?”

Perhaps during the week we were playing, there would have been news that the count had successfully completed the pre-disappearance investigation request, and there would have been talk about the iron golem.

I think that’s enough to go to C-class.

“Yes. I heard the news through the Count’s letter. Even though it was in the form of a raid, the guild leader’s opinion is that the conditions for the promotion test are sufficient because the results were good.”

“Really? It’s a pity.”

“···What?”

“If I said no, I would have tried to prove my skills by beating all the C-class adventurers here.”

I glanced inside to see if there were any C-class adventurers with good taste. For some reason, all the adventurers I encountered avoided looking at me.

Shaking my head.

Adela shook her head.

For some reason, it seemed that there was one more wrinkle on his forehead than before.

“I’ll explain, so come on over.”

“Don’t you have any doubts that you’ll fail now?”

“hahahaha… that’s right. It would have been better if I didn’t have any skills.”

“A joke too.”

Now that we’re friends, it seems like they make jokes like that.

But the lack of vitality in his eyes seems to be painful.

As last time, Adela took a large book from the bookshelf and opened it.

I flipped through the book again this time, but I must have memorized everything in that big book.

“This is the easiest quest like last time.”

“I like the hardest one.”

Choosing the difficult ones is the secret to high-speed promotion.

“…just look at it and tell me.”

“yes.”

“This time, it’s changed from a two-person party to a three-person party, so I’d recommend checking it out.”

“yes.”

first monster.

Salamander. Alias fire lizard.

Covers the whole body with fire and performs a melee attack.

The easiest way to hunt is to bring someone who can use water.

The next best thing is to hire a porter and carry an oak barrel filled with water.

“Adela, do you think this information is incorrect?”

“Yes? Where are you going?”

“Do I really need to use water? Can’t I just kill it while it’s hot?”

“…If that was the case, everyone would have done that. People get burned when they touch fire. Mr. Luke.”

“No, it’s just a little hot.”

“Yes, yes. You must be.”

“Jinjjandeng.”

I don’t believe this.

Looking at the easiest thing to do is the Salamander, it’s definitely a higher level overall than the monsters I saw during the last promotion test.

“What’s next for Salamander?”

I’m not going to do it anyway, but I’m curious what it is.

There are a lot of monsters in this world, but since it’s still an academy and monsters don’t have intelligence, there are more demons and demons than monsters.

The growth of the main character is all done by them.

As a result, the ogre and the iron golem that I caught last time were monsters that had never appeared in the work.

“It’s Ghost.”

“Ghost? The Ghost I know?”

“I don’t know what Mr. Luke knows, but he’s probably right.”

Ghosts are Class C?

Besides, he’s stronger than a Salamander?

I don’t understand.

“Isn’t Salamander stronger than Ghost?”

“If you look at it as a single entity, yes. However, Salamanders work alone, but Ghosts are monsters from abandoned cemeteries, so they appear in groups.”

Aww. The bottom line is that there is no business in Daguri.

“Besides, ghosts are spiritual bodies, so physical attacks are ineffective. The only means of attack is to use magic tools if it is not magic. .”

Salamanders have fire wrapped around them, making them difficult to melee.

Ghosts are spirit bodies, so physical attacks do not work.

Is there a warrior hatred in class C? Well, this didn’t work and that didn’t work either.

I didn’t intend to catch it anyway, but there’s no way for me to catch it.

If I catch it, should I at least dance with a torch?

I don’t even think about what to do with it.

“The last monster can be found if you turn the next page.”

“Okay~ let’s go to the last monster~”

The long-awaited final monster.

With a pounding heart, I turned a page in the book.

Then, the name of the first monster that caught my eye.

King Slime.

······I wondered if I was looking at it wrong, so I blinked once and looked again.

Still King Slime.

I wondered if I was hallucinating, so I rubbed my eyes and looked again.

But King Slime.

I looked at the picture below to see if it was just a slime, but in case it was another monster in gel form.

It is round and looks smooth in the picture.

No arms, no legs, no mouth, no face, nothing.

It was the slime I knew.

“Mister, Mr. Sissy, Mr. Sissy, Mr., fucking slime!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????”

That fuckup monster slime that stands shoulder to shoulder with the goblins I know?!

These days, there are many worldviews where slime is not crappy, but is this really such a worldview!?

“Oh, why are you suddenly like that…?”

“Luke, please calm down.”

Adela, startled by my sudden seizure.

And it was Luna who stopped it from behind.

“No, how can only slimes come out beating ogres and salamanders!!”

“Oh, no! King Slime is different from normal slime and is a very dangerous monster!”

“That’s the problem!”

Ha, among the real writers, it’s so fucking hard.

Well, depending on the settings, slimes can be strong.

But why are slimes popping out of nowhere when the other monsters are well made?

Since there is nothing to come out during the work, it was made only with dummy data, right?

“I don’t know why Mr. Luke is like that, but King Slime is a more dangerous monster than I thought.”

“What.”

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

My mood has cooled down, so no matter what I try to do, nothing but plain words come out.

“Even the weakest normal slime is made entirely of acid, so even touching it will melt the flesh. Besides, it doesn’t have a core like a golem, and it ignores most physical attacks.”

No… It’s a common setting, but it’s a little weird that it’s different from the slimes I know when you explain slime so seriously.

Could it be that Tempestra is also added after the slime name?

Then, it is acceptable to be strong.

“I don’t think most of them work at all.”

“Even with that, strikes like hammers work better than slashes like swords.”

The word is a striking type, but the conclusion is that there is only a blunt weapon or a hammer.

You can’t stick your fist out saying your body is acidic.

I have the best hitting class I know, but unfortunately I can’t do it because there is no heavy equipment in this world.

“But the last time the metal slime was E-class?”

“Metal slime is more solid than liquid, so even people without magical powers can catch it.”

Speaking of metal slime, it’s usually an evolved species of slime…

How did it degenerate here again?

I belatedly read the description of the book.

A slime that is several meters in size.

Its entire body is made of acid, and its very existence is very dangerous to humans.

Locks the opponent in the body and melts it to death.

The general weakness is that magic, especially fire-type magic, is effective, and on the contrary, water-type magic needs to be refrained from. This is because it absorbs water and expands in size.

Contrary to its appearance, it is a fairly intelligent monster, so you need to be careful when fighting.

“Eh, this is the strongest, so I have to use this.”

“I… Luke? Isn’t there a fire mage in our party?”

“No.”

“But how do you catch it…?”

“If you don’t have it, you do what you don’t have. Is there anything you can’t do? There’s nothing in the world that you can’t do, Luna.”

There are no soldiers in your world, so I guess you haven’t heard of them.

Army’s Moving Castle.

Nothing is impossible in this world.

“Honestly, at least this time, I want to agree with Luna-san’s opinion. Because Luke, who becomes the main character, is a physical attacker.”

If you don’t want to do it, it’s a creature called a person.

“There is no time to hesitate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

I left the adventurer’s guild.
