50 Episode 50 President's Authority




"Chancellor's authority?

I couldn't help but ask back.
I'd never heard of such a system.

"Yes. It's a great way to make sure you're getting the most out of your vacation.

...... What the heck.

In the event that you're not sure what to do, you can always try to find out more about the best way to do it. I think the request will be approved.

...... Oh, so that's how it works.

The fact that the conditions are so strict means that even if ...... I had known about this system before I received the request to defeat Hercules, for example, I would not have been able to exercise my authority.

And it's a big deal that I learned about this system at this time.
If you can only move up one rank, it's probably more profitable to use your authority when moving up from B to A than when moving up from C to B.

But there are some things that the ...... receptionist says that are a bit tricky.

It's a request that the ...... president makes to the guild, isn't it?

I asked the receptionist.
I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not.

Normally, yes. If a student's application is accepted, the elite academy will conduct an examination and interview, and if the student is deemed worthy of promotion by the chancellor's authority, the chancellor will act.

...... Sounds like a hassle.
It's going to take a few days.

But ...... now the receptionist said "normally".
I'm not sure if they'll simplify the process in this case.

...... Is my case out of the ordinary?

"Yes, it is. This is quite unusual, but ...... this time, we, the guild, would like to urge the chancellor to exercise his authority.

When I asked the question, the receptionist answered.

...... I see.
There seems to be no reason to go through the elite academy any longer. ...... Guild rules are not flexible enough to make exceptions for one adventurer.

To put it bluntly, getting a rank increase is more than just a windfall.
I'll be grateful for the favor.

...... Oh, but ......

I'm not a big fan of the elite academy to be honest, but I'm wondering if you could try to ...... accommodate me?

I'm sure you'll be fine. I'm sure you'll be fine. We'll strongly suggest that you get a record of your student's journey to the island of self-determination. That should sway the chancellor's mind.

So the ...... guild is going to convince him.
More and more, I can't stop thinking about it.


...... Yes.
By the way, ...... the day before the entrance exam for the elite academy, the man in the carriage that we rescued gave us an envelope that exempted us from one credit.

I don't know if this will help, but I should tell the receptionist about him.

So I explained the whole story to the receptionist.

Then ......

"Oh, you had a connection to the vice chair of the school board?

The receptionist opened her mouth wide, took a step back and shouted.

The receptionist's mouth dropped open and she stepped back, exclaiming, "...... Is this really such a surprise? I'm sure you'll be able to understand why. ......

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for. It's quite rare!

...... I see.

I understand. If that person is willing to act, the ...... conversation should go much more smoothly. I'm going to ask for your help!



And so it came to pass that I might be promoted to an A-rank adventurer within a few days.

All I have to do is wait for the results of .......



We'll see.



In the evening, three days after my promotion to B rank.
Three days after my promotion to B rank, I went into the adventurer's guild to ask for the result of the chairman's authority.

Well, I don't know if the result is out today or not.
I want to hear the results as soon as possible, so I make it a routine to visit the guild in the evening.

I've also stocked up on a lot of food at the Elite Academy cafeteria today.
Now I can go on a long trip after I finish my final exams. ......

I'm not sure what to say. Come here, please!

As I was thinking about this, the receptionist called out to me in a brave manner.

This means that ......

"Chancellor's authority, out!

...... I did it.
You're now an A-rank adventurer who can explore the island of self-determination with impunity.

Here's your A-rank guild card!

The receptionist said, and presented me with a gorgeous colored guild card.
I took it and handed her the B-rank guild card, which I no longer needed.

Thanks to the actions of the vice chairman of the school board, everything happened so fast! What would have taken a week by any estimate, was done in just three days. ......

I'll have to thank him again next time.
I'll have to thank him again next time.



After receiving my guild card, the receptionist told me the location of Suicide Island.

She said, "Go to ...... and you'll see a bay that looks like this, then go out to sea and go offshore. Then you'll see a rather large island, ......, and that's Jijitsujima.

The receptionist finished her explanation and put the map she had used in her explanation away in a drawer.



...... I see.

It wasn't exactly near the city of Merkel's, but ...... it was still far enough away that if you flew the myotrope at full speed, you could get there in your sleep.

If this was a place that would take a week to get to even by myotrope, I would have thought to wait until after my final exams to actually go there. ...... But it looks like I can go there right now.



We'll leave tonight.
