22 . Twenty-second episode self-introduction and pen dragon



I asked Miu Miu to take care of Rem until this round table is over.

It's not a good idea. Are you nervous?
No, it's the other way around. It's a good thing I know the guy next door.
You're a big shot. The guilds participating in this roundtable discussion are so well known, it makes me sick to my stomach.

Randy said, and a man appeared from the back door. He has long hair that hides one of his eyes and a slightly aged face. The man's long hair and slightly aged face is covered by one of his eyes, but the atmosphere is very strange.

But first, let me introduce myself. My name is Lindow-Age. I'm the second highest ranked adventurer in the guild association, but I hope you don't mind me saying so.

Second most adventurous person? I don't know if I'm being pompous or not, so I ask Randy, "Randy, what's the number two adventurer?

"Randy, what's the second-most adventurous person in the world?
In the guild association, it means an adventurer with a high rank and ability. The lower the number from 1 to 10, the more skilled the adventurer.
So you're pretty strong, Lindow-san.

Mr. Lynda puts the stack of papers on the table and looks around at everyone.

'Good! There are some newly formed guilds, so if you could just introduce yourselves, and tell me your guild name.
'Yes! I'll tell you!
Oh? You're a spirited adventurer, aren't you?

A girl stands up by herself. She has golden hair and eyes. For some reason, she has a twinkle in her eye. The two people sitting next to her also stand up.

'My name is [Cornelia-Costa Lawton] and everyone calls me 'Kokoro' because my name is so long, people! Nice to meet you!
'Wait, Kokoro-chan, I didn't introduce the guild~!

The girl in the maid's uniform looked flustered and troubled.

''That's right, Eluna. We guild=smile happy party! We're a guild that works to make the world smile.

My first impression of Kokoro is that she's very energetic, more so than most people. I'm sure you'll find that Kokoro is kind of energetic, but Elyuna, the maid, seems to be a bit of a hassle for Kokoro.

However, the introduction just now eases the tension in the air around us. After Kokoro and the others finished introducing themselves, the three people seated next to them stood up.

They wore helmets and full plates (full body armor) on their bodies that obscured their faces, making it impossible to tell if they were male or female. When I appraise the armor, I see that it is made of Orihalcon.

"So this armor is made of a phantom metal.......I'd like to make armor from that material once.

"We are the Guild of Nightmares. Since I have no name, some of you will call me the Black Knight or the Demon Emperor. As this is your first time to participate in this roundtable, we would appreciate your discretion.


It was a male voice, and he said he didn't have a name, so I'll call him "The Black Knight" for now. When the black knight sits down, the woman seated next to him stands. Her ears are long and her skin is white. Her body is also tight. I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this.

''Then I guess I'm next, we're the Guild = Black Cat of Freedom. That's all!
'Wait, Gilmour, you're early! Please introduce yourself!
All right, V2. My name is Raffy. I'm from the Village of Elves, and I've started a new guild. And I'm a Half-Elf. I have a mixture of human and [elven] blood. The village hates me, but I'm actively withdrawing from this. We're going to try to help the elves and 'dark elves' get out into the society of the human race. Please take care of that part!

Raffy took a seat after the introductions were done. V2-san next to her was talking to Raffy with a troubled look on her face.

'There are so many new guilds this time.
'I read in the guild newspaper that after Miss Cele formed a guild, new guilds were formed one after another.
That's right. But then again, what kind of adventurer is this?
What did you say, Len?
It's nothing. Randy.

Their dangerous skills were about to be exposed. But there are some adventurers who are at adventurer level 100 or have broken the level limit. I doubt that they are really newly formed.

As I thought about it, Guild=Grand Centurion and Guild=Log Horizon's self-introduction was over, and Guild=Arian Sword was next. A woman with golden hair and blue eyes stands.

'We are Guild-Arianthood. We are active in the capital city of the Kingdom of Vesperia. 

She is a very polite and gentle woman. But I didn't hear anything from her. He has reached mastery territory. Then Honoka, who is sitting down, secretly waves to me, so Serena and I secretly wave to her.

''You didn't introduce yourself yet. 'My name is Lewis-Pendragon. Henceforth, Yoshina.

No way, it's the same name underneath as King Arthur! Arthur Pendragon. The name of the king in Arthurian legend, who uses the Holy Sword Excalibur and other weapons to save the country, but the king is a man. But she's a woman, but maybe it's just my imagination.

After she introduced herself, she took a seat. I was a little surprised. Then, Nero from the next guild, Diabolos, introduced himself, and then it was our turn with Guild=Dunames.

''It's nice to meet you all, I'm Serena from Guild=Azuma's Guildmas. We've only formed a short time ago, but I'm looking forward to working with you.
'My name is Azuma-Ren. I'm in the same guild as Serena. Nice to meet you...?

The other guilds are buzzing with excitement. What's the matter with me all of a sudden, did I introduce myself wrong in some way? Then one of the young men from the Guild-Nightmare calls out to him.

'Ren! Could it be that you were the one who defeated the golem that was rampaging through the streets of Lewis!
Yes, but...


!

The buzz around me gets louder. I'm surprised that they didn't think they'd find out about the golem, but why do people react so much!

'I can explain it to you. Ren, this is the golem you fought.
"Mr. Gentile?

Everyone who had been buzzing around became quiet as Mr. Lindow stood up. Then a pillar of water stood in the center of the room and an image flowed out of the water.

'Is this footage of Ren fighting a golem?'

When I checked the video, Serena was right, the image flowing in the water was me.

Actually, Ren's opponent has a skill called 'Perfect Defense Wall', which is an EX skill that makes the opponent's techniques and skills completely ineffective. The golem is an ancient legacy (artifact) that even a skilled magician could not analyze.
Why is everyone so upset about...
I defeated that golem. You're the first one to defeat that EX-skilled golem.

After hearing Lindow's words, I finally understood something.

(Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

I don't like being the center of attention. That's because I might not be able to live a relaxed life in this other world if I'm in the spotlight.
