The next day, I woke up early in the morning to find myself in Tempest.
　Even though it was early in the morning, I saw a few people here and there.
　And to my surprise, there was a receptionist sitting at an empty counter.

　The receptionist noticed me and came closer.


I'm Eleanor and I'm going to be the receptionist here from today!　It's Mr. Revell, isn't it?　I look forward to working with you.

　She would have been about 20 years old at the time.
　Eleanor's smile gave me the impression of a calm adult.

"Nice to meet you. You know my name.

''I remember the information on the adventurers who belong to your organization, but I can only judge who they are by the three of you, including Revell-san, who has done well in the Freypara Rookie Competition.

I see.

''Mr. Revell is a B-ranked adventurer, but I'm not sure he knows much about the duties of the guild's receptionist. May I briefly explain it to you?

　Eleanor's handling skills are not that of an amateur.
　She must have worked as a receptionist for some guild.
　It was immediately clear that she was a talented person.

''Please.''

　It would have taken me a moment to gather my wits, but I saw an opportunity to listen.
　Besides, it's an offer I'm willing to make.


　To summarize Ms. Eleanor's explanation, a receptionist's job as it pertains to adventurers is

　Proposals for quests requested by guilds
　Report on Ordered Quests

　I'm sure there are many other tasks, but she explained to me, the adventurer, in a clear and concise manner, only what was relevant.
　In other words, the receptionist will support the adventurer so that he or she can focus on the activities.

　With that in mind, I decided to ask Eleanor to do me a favor.


You're going to suggest the quests that Eleanor-san requested for the guild, right?

That's true. Revel-san is a B-ranked player, but she doesn't have much experience as an adventurer, so I think I can suggest a D- or C-ranked quest for you. After that, if you have a certain amount of experience, I'll be able to suggest quests that match your rank.

Then I would like to ask you one favor. Would you be willing to choose a proposed quest that would be instantaneous, depending on how you do it?

...... something that will be done in an instant, right. I don't think there are a lot of quests being asked for at the moment, so it's hard to say, but I'll do my best to make it as good as I can for what I want!

Nice to meet you.


　After my conversation with Eleanor, I headed to the arena of the tempest.


　There are many things I want to try today.
　There's no one around at this time, so I can do what I want to do without worrying about being seen.

''Speaking of which, Kyu was getting big when he was fighting the Manticore, can he do that now?

　First of all, I'm going to clear up the questions about Kyu .
　The reason Anna was able to show her talents as a 【Dragon Knight】 was thanks to Kyu growing up and being able to participate in battle.
　If Kyu is able to fight in the future as an adventurer, it will be of great use to me.

''Hmmm~!　It's difficult!'

'Difficult?　Why?

"Thanks to Anna's help, I was able to get big, Kyu.

"Power," as in magic?　Then why don't you just borrow it from me?'

It's not exactly magical. Even Kyu doesn't understand it.

'I see. ....... Maybe there was something about Anna that was unique to the Dragon Knight.''

"Ah!　But I smelled nostalgic on Anna!

Smell familiar?

　Anna is a childhood friend of mine.
　I've been next door to her for as long as I can remember and I've never seen a baby dragon or a dragon before.
　Anna's reaction was like seeing Kyu for the first time.

I don't know... but this felt familiar.

　It's difficult to look up something too abstract with wisdom.
　So I decided to let it slide, even though I was concerned about Kyu's word 'nostalgia'.

Hmm, it's probably just my imagination. Anyway, for now, Kyu can't grow up without Anna, right?

"It will be.

Can you fight in this condition?

"Yeah!　You can do it!'

　He seemed to have confidence in Kyu.

I see. Well, then, do you mind if we see what you've got?

"Love.

　Kyu flaps his wings and flies through the air.
　And then he takes a deep breath in the air.
　And he could feel the magic in his mouth.

"QWOW!

　Flames erupted from Kyu's mouth.

　But the size was commensurate with Kyu's size, so it didn't feel like a marvel at all.

　It was a cute little thing that looked more like a trick than something you could use in battle.



"Hey, Yuji, how's it going?　Did he look strong?



　When Kyu came back to me, he looked somewhat satisfied.

...... Yeah, she was pretty.


　Garn .


　Kyu rolled his eyes and opened his mouth with a pop.


''...... Kyu, shock ......''

'Kyu, it's okay!　I'm sure Kyu will become a very strong dragon when he grows up!

"...... cu, go for it ......


　Kyu, good luck.


　After that, I decided to go work on my training.
　I've asked Kyu to stay in the corner of the arena to be safe.

　This is just a review of the magic control technique we learned during the Manticore battle.
　It's also possible that you were able to handle it because of your extreme concentration at the last minute.
　You must be able to fully demonstrate your abilities at all times.

"Let's see if you can fire the sword once. Then I'll report back to Mr. Lloyd and show him what I can do.

　Although I had acquired the "Hard Knives", I hadn't yet acquired the "Hard Knives".
　I decided to warm up and practice the magic control I had acquired to see if the Tsuyoshi no Tsurugi could really work.
