247-Chapter One Idlers Without Guidance


Chapter I. The unguided idler

"What? Our mercenary rank can't choose this mission?"
"Erm... yes, because you started out with only an E rank, this is a task that can only be taken by a rank C."
The lady in charge of the reception counter said with a smile as she looked at Bai Yue Guan. At this time, Bai Yue Guan was staring at his newly processed mercenary certificate with a depressed grin on one side.
"It's hard to see a mission that looks good, but I didn't think it wasn't graded enough, do I have to start with a lower grade? How long is that going to take...?"
Heiroli was also complaining, but Oyado was staring at the side with a bitter face, as if he hadn't gotten over what had just happened.
Well, it was almost time to go over and say hello, even if for no other reason than to keep Oyado sad like this, or what if the boy accidentally blacked out?
I quickly approached White Moonlight's side when the people around me weren't paying attention, and caught the moment when my face was now invisible to everyone and switched back to my original appearance. But to be more concealing I put on the [Real Goggles] (glasses).
"Hello, please classify these three into my squad so that they can accept this mission, right?"
"Eh...oh, okay, can I see your mercenary certificate first?"
Ignoring the white moonlight next to me who was looking at me with a 'how did you just show up' look and the black Rory and Oyado who were looking at me with a mixture of surprise and amazement, I handed out my badge.
"Well, let's see..."
The other side's pupils got bigger all of a sudden!
Then looked at me, and then at the terminal in front of me.
"Uri Felix... Mr... right?"
"En, yes."
"Mercenary rank A, can accept A rank as well as missions below A, can edit squad limit of 50. Data confirmed, this is your mercenary proof, please keep it... Is there anything else you need help with?"
The other party's voice had all become respectful, though the receptionist himself had to use honorific language.
"By the way, help me take the task I just chose~"
I smiled in response.
"Brother!"
Ojado jumped to sit on my shoulder and then hugged my head right back.
"Great! My brother turned out to be alive!"
"Hey, hey, hey, don't just assume people are dead..."
I laughed bitterly.
"I've already said that this guy won't die with his life."
White Moonlight said very calmly as he nodded his head.
"Nonsense..."
You know I can be resurrected naturally say so, and I'm not dead, just dying.
"Okay, okay, Ojado get off my head, you're not heavy but sitting on my shoulders and all that..."
"No! My brother made me worry all night, so sit on my brother's shoulder as punishment!"
"It's...okay."
I thought about it or agreed.
After all, it's good to have Oyado talking so girlishly, after all, we don't have anyone here to stop her if she goes dark.
"But until then, let's go somewhere else to talk."
I said as I pressed it to my face, and a large tattoo appeared on my face.
"This way a normal person shouldn't be able to see my face, let's go."
The group of us left the mercenary guild hall, then turned around and headed to the old part of the city.
This was actually a town on the border of the Aether Empire, the one closest to Gray Academy. After I left the school that day, I used all my acceleration skills and arrived at this town in less than half an hour and disguised myself as a mercenary and stayed there.
The name of this town was [Dongsa City], and it was one of the few cities in the eastern part of the Ais Empire. Although it was located on the border of the country, but since it was facing the direction of the Grey Empire, this place was still considered to be a relatively large center of merchandise flow, but its fate after that... it was hard to say.
After all, if there was no Gray Academy and Doglegs Academy, then this middle area of these empires would become the home of magic beasts, because that place itself was densely populated with magic beasts, and after all, some of the students were using magic beasts to cultivate.
Although the country wants to possess such a place, it's hard for so many countries to decide who it should go to, so it'll be a stalemate for a while.
It's a good time for mercenaries to search for the ruins of the two colleges and hunt for beasts, as can be seen from the rising number of mercenaries in the city and the increasing number of search missions on the task board.
As I walked, I said.
"The number of mercenaries on this side will keep rising, we'd better find a remote place to stay, after all, the mission you guys took on only started in the afternoon. By the way, what happened to you guys at that time? I walked out of the ruins then and got blown up, what the hell happened then?"
"You at least knew there was an explosion...we didn't know until we woke up."
It was White Moonlight who answered me.
"That's when we saw you walk out the door and then we lost consciousness."
"And we ended up waking up lying inside the city hotel room~ What a failure, to be put down and not feel anything, it's just so d*mned awful!"
Oyado said indignantly.
"I see... Well, you don't have to be concerned about it, Ojado, after all, the opponent is the natural enemy of all professions, the illusionist, how can she do without some skills, her only advantage is just to create such an illusion for us . Other than that it's going to be up to other forces. All in all we know the other side doesn't want to kill us..."
You're probably worried we'll get angry and fall out with them, aren't you?
Honestly, what they did didn't really affect me much, after all, those of us from the other world don't have much to worry about in this world.
But........
It's rare that I've made so many friends in this world, and I feel like it's just not right not to help them out.
And if they hurt these people... Ah, then we'll have no worries at all, we'll only be left to PVP with the [Snake Eyes] people every day, right?
It's not good by any means, it's better to hide from the limelight for now and find out what [Snake Eyes] is planning before going back to find Princess Xueer and the others.
However, in order to investigate we must also have the help of organizations at the appropriate level, such as the [Red Leaf Brigade].
So for now, let's do the mercenary mission while trying to contact Faran. Since there doesn't seem to be a terminal in this place that can be borrowed, we'll probably have to find a larger city, such as the Witt Empire's [Melody City], the Western Continent's art trading center, where we're going on our mission.
By the way it's still Princess Anne's territory.
There's no Princess Annie's name on the death list, so it should be fine.
"The other side won't kill us... It seems like we've been completely underestimated."
Hearing Kurorei say that, I looked at White Moonlight with dissatisfaction.
You bastard, what's wrong with teaching a line that only villains like to use!
"The others just want us not to interfere in their affairs,"
I replied with a grin.
"The other side put you in a hotel in another city and put everyone's name on the death list just to get us to leave out our connection to this matter and re-establish ourselves, which in a nutshell means don't interfere with them."
"I see..."
"That means eighty percent of Mary-sensei and the others are around here too, but we just didn't find them."
'I have a message for them.'
Bai Yue Guang suddenly said in a private message.
'But they didn't even respond.'
'Is that so...'
I thought about it.
"They probably have their own plans anyway, so let's just get started on the investigation...we're free anyway, aren't we, to be fair."
"........"
We looked at each other.
"As if...yes."
