Chapter 6

The day after earning five gold coins, I put on my equipment and visited the Adventurer's Guild early in the morning.

Until now, I had only shown up at the guild a little before noon, which was off-peak time, so I hadn't seen many adventurers.

However, this time was when the most adventurers were at the guild.

In the morning, the day's requests were posted, and adventurers who wanted to get good requests gathered in front of the bulletin board.

"Mr. Jin, you're here again today?"

"Good morning, Fiene."

I walked straight to Fiene, whom I had come to recognize, while glancing at the other adventurers.

"Are you here to take on a request again today?"

"I do plan to take on a request, but I came early to take care of something else first."

"Something else?"

"It's only my second day of registration, but is it possible to do a 'Partner Registration'?"

Partner Registration.

This was one of the features that was very useful in the game era.

Players who controlled the protagonist always became adventurers and relied on the Adventurer's Guild.

As the story progressed, a "Partner Registration" system appeared, where players could enter into a business-like contract with the receptionist.

By doing this, a portion of the reward money would be given to the contracted receptionist.

However, I found out that by doing this registration, you could receive priority treatment for the guild's facilities and in this world, you would be given priority.

Additionally, I learned that this registration was not widely used in this world.

The main reason was that the reward money would decrease, and many adventurers managed well without the contract, so the number of adventurers who registered was small.

"…It is possible, but you can still operate as an adventurer without it. I've never seen a beginner register for it."

"Don't worry about my side. I can live normally for a while with yesterday's reward money, and having the right to be treated with priority is more convenient."

"I see… It will be in the form of you designating someone. Is there anyone you want to contract with? If they are already contracted, I will recommend another staff member."

Is there a choice in who to select?

In the game, when you contracted, a generic character became your partner…

"In that case, I would like to choose Fiene because I know your face."

"Me?"

Fiene looked at me with a puzzled expression as she said this.

"Yes, you've been very helpful from my adventurer registration to my first request, so if it's possible, I would like to choose you."

"…I understand. I was also looking for someone to register as a partner since the permission for partner registration was granted recently."

"That's perfect."

After that, Fiene and I completed the "Partner Registration" and successfully formed a contract.

This meant I now had a dedicated receptionist.

Incidentally, a portion of my reward money would go to the registered receptionist, but the receptionist's salary was of course paid separately, so the only disadvantage was to the adventurer.

Conversely, the contracted receptionist would become the dedicated partner of the contracted adventurer and would not stand at the reception desk except during busy periods.

"By the way, here is my status."

We moved to a consultation room available to adventurers who had completed partner registration.

There, I was about to show Fiene my status.

Although it was not written in the contract, I found out that showing your status to the contracted receptionist would result in them giving you jobs suitable for you.

I hesitated about showing my status to someone else.

However, the contract included a clause that "personal information of the contractor will not be disclosed without permission," so I ultimately decided to show my status.

✤

My level increased by three due to the large number of Orc Boars I hunted the other day, and my abilities slightly improved.

Normally, someone at my level would not have increased from such a task.

However, thanks to my unique ability [Growth Promotion], I was able to level up three times despite the number.

"…Mr. Jin, who exactly are you?"

"Who am I? Just a regular person. Well, I used to be a noble."

"Used to be a noble?"

"Until three days ago, I was the child of a noble in this country, but due to some issues with my birth, I was kicked out."

When I said this, Fiene exclaimed in surprise.

"Well, now I'm just a regular kid."

"Looking at this status, I can't believe you're a regular kid. Just by looking at your level, you're almost equivalent to a Silver-class adventurer…"

Silver class, correctly "Silver-grade adventurer."

The adventurer ranking system in this world is divided into six levels:

Platinum, Gold, Silver, Bronze, Iron, and Wood.

Platinum is the highest rank for adventurers, and Wood is for beginner adventurers.

So, Fiene was not just surprised but also stunned that a Wood-class adventurer like me had a level equivalent to a Silver-class adventurer.
