Episode 197 [Ryujinkoku Participation/3]
Within a week, the news that Dragonia, the dragon nation, would lend its strength to subjugate the Demon King's army spread throughout the continent.
Some people wondered why the Ryujin nation was joining the war now.
However, most of them knew the strength of the dragon nation and congratulated themselves on having that great power on their side.
“In an instant, our topic disappeared, Jin.”
"Ah, I expected something like this to happen, but I didn't expect it to happen this quickly."
The Ryujin nation, which officially joined the alliance to subjugate the Demon King, achieved tremendous results as soon as it joined.
The number of them was far greater than those of us who had been active for a month, and all of the battles were overwhelming victories and not a single person was injured.
"We're also working really hard, but we lost to the people of the dragon nation. When it comes to transportation, the people of the dragon nation can ride flying dragons and travel at high speeds."
"Ah, since we can use teleportation, our movement speed is higher, but I think we can still fight in as many people as we want...we only have four people, but the dragon nation has hundreds of people."
Len said that to Rei's words, and I said, ``There's nothing we can do about the difference in numbers.''
The four of us are taking care of the requests received from the princess, but the dragon nation is working in groups, with hundreds of people working together.
In addition, the kings, King Grams and Lyudra, join in and drive away the Demon King's army with overwhelming force.
Since the Ryujin Kingdom entered the war, the movements of the Demon King's army have become much quieter, and the Four Heavenly Kings have not appeared recently.
Thanks to this, the humans are now focusing their efforts on recapturing and rebuilding the areas that have been captured so far, and are gradually narrowing down the demon king's army's range of action.
"Honestly, there's almost nothing for us to do. The princess occasionally comes to us, but I feel like it's better to leave it to the people of the dragon country and the country's army."
"Well, we can go to a different place from where the dragon nation went in an instant."
Honestly, if there was no teleportation, we wouldn't be able to do anything at all, but the Ryujin nation's success has become amazing.
After that, we finished our discussion and received a summons from the guild, so we headed to the adventurer's guild for the first time in a while.
"It's been a while. Mr. Fine."
When we arrived at the guild, we moved to the room with Ricola-san's guidance, where we waited for Fine-san to arrive, and when she came into the room, we greeted her.
Lately, Fine-san has been busy as acting guild leader, and has been temporarily absent from my partner duties.
In return, Mr. Ricola will be our exclusive party partner.
"It's been a while. I've been hearing a lot about Jin-san and his friends' activities."
"Haha, well, lately the people from the dragon nation have been more prominent, so there hasn't been much talk about us."
After first making small talk, Fine-san started talking about the reason for the summons.
The reason for this call was about our adventurer rank.
The battle of the Demon King's army was handled as a request from the country to us, and we were told that if we passed the exam, we could become gold-class adventurers.
"Now that I think about it, you said earlier that you've achieved enough requests to become a gold-class adventurer in a little while."
Previously, when we came to the guild, Ricolan-san had said something like that to us, and at that time we were wondering if we could become gold-class adventurers.
``That's why I called you this time, but I was called to confirm whether Jin-san and the others will take the promotion test to become gold-class adventurers.As a guild, we have been active in adventures so far. I'd like someone to move up, but I've seen Jin-san's personality for the past few years and know him, so I thought I'd let him decide what to do.''
“I see… Of course you all want to go up, right?”
I asked while looking at the faces of Chloe and the others who were listening to the story together, and they all nodded and said, ``If Jin-kun is good, we would like to take the promotion test.''
“…If we were to become gold-class adventurers, would we stand out?”
"Well...it's a bit conspicuous, but Jin-san and his friends' activities are already well known, so I think people will think that they aren't gold-class adventurers yet."
“Jin-kun, haven’t you already said that it’s okay to stand out?”
"I think it's okay to stand out. But if you ask me if I want to stand out, that's not the case. I still think that if you don't want to stand out, that's fine."
When I answered Chloe's question, I told Ricola-san and the others, ``I'm going to take the promotion test,'' and I decided to become a gold-class adventurer.
