Episode 198 [Promotion to Gold Class Adventurer/1]
After hearing about the promotion at the guild, we were told that there was still time until the exam, so we returned to the inn.
The content of the promotion test to become a gold-class adventurer will be the same as before, in which you will compete against adventurers of the same class or higher, and there will be common sense questions and etiquette tests that have never been seen before.
The content of the common sense questions is something that you would understand in everyday life, and is not that difficult.
As you become a gold-class adventurer, you will have more interactions with high-ranking opponents, so such tests are conducted.
"Is there a written test? I don't like it..."
``It's not that difficult, so there's no need to worry about it.The content itself is simple, so if you take it easy and write what you remember, you'll pass the written test.On the other hand, competitive play is more difficult. I think so.”
I've always been like that, but Chloe and the others have also gained more power than a normal adventurer of the same class through their training.
Furthermore, they have been fighting against the Demon King's army recently, and all of them have leveled up and their ability values have increased.
"Honestly, I think it's difficult to fight without being too careful.The opponent is a gold-class adventurer class, so if you're too slow, it'll be difficult to pass the exam, but if you don't play too hard, your opponent will get hurt. I might let you do it.”
Especially among us, Rei, who doesn't know how to take care of herself, will definitely beat up her opponent if she takes the test like this.
Chloe and I should be able to work things out if we take some time to adjust, and Ren isn't the type to use powerful techniques to begin with, so it's okay.
"That's certainly true... Gold-class adventurers are people of Ange-san's class, right? You can't fight Ange-san in a careless way, so it seems difficult."
"There are a few days until the exam, so let's do something before then."
After closing the discussion, I told everyone that I didn't have any plans for a while starting tomorrow, so I was going to train on the sky island, and we dispersed for the day.
The next day, after we had breakfast, we moved to the sky island, bringing Fioro with us, thinking that he would be a good training partner.
“What are you doing by suddenly bringing me along?”
"It's a slow training. There's going to be a promotion test for gold-class adventurers next time, but since our strength is higher than that of gold-class adventurers, we decided to train to suppress our strength to the extent that we won't hurt the opponent."
"...Could it be that I'm that person? I don't like it. There's no way I can be your opponent, right? I've finally become able to use the magic of a silver-class adventurer, right? ”
Fiorro reluctantly refuses, but there is no other suitable partner besides Fioro.
For that reason, I decided to ask Fioro, who refused, to become my training partner on the condition that he would release one level of his power.
Even though it's one stage, if Fioro's current power is that of a silver-class adventurer class, it would be the power of an upper class silver-class adventurer, so there's nothing to worry about.
"Well then, let's start with Rei. Out of all of them, she's the one who's the worst at handling."
"Yes, that's it, Fioro-chan. Nice to meet you."
"Please be gentle, okay? I can't stand your stupidity right now."
Then, the Fioro vs. Rei training began, so we decided to do another training in the meantime.
While I was fighting Fioro, I decided to train with Chloe, who had the next highest overall strength in the party after me, while fighting with her.
"Ren has said that he won't do any lax training, but if you want to do research while we're training, you can send him to the capital?"
"No, I have something I want to do as well, so I'll stay here so you don't have to worry about it."
When Ren told me that, I said, ``I see,'' and decided to concentrate on fighting Chloe.
"It's been a while since I fought Chloe like this."
"That's right. It's been a while so I'm a little nervous."
“Me too.”
We were both a little nervous since we hadn't seen each other in a while, but once the fight started, we were able to concentrate on the fight.
Chloe and I have somewhat similar fighting styles, and we are both good at close combat and long range combat.
For that reason, I decided to first train myself in close combat.
“Oh!”
Chloe, even though she uses magic all the time, each shot is heavy.
I've managed to lose some of my momentum, but if I lose my balance even a little, I feel like I'll be taken away all at once.
"Jin-kun, you must have trained really hard to be able to compete in a martial arts match on equal terms with me, a beastman."
"Well, recently I've fought against my masters without weapons, so I think my ability to detect danger has improved because of those times."
I said that while narrowly avoiding Chloe's fist, gradually matching my speed and strength to Chloe's movements.
After that, I decided to finish my training in close combat and move on to long range combat with a break in between.
