Hey. I'm Johan, and I'm an adventurer.

　My father was an adventurer, too. I helped him with his work, and I became one too, so I've been doing it ever since.

　I was working diligently, doing my share of the work, and I was blessed with good friends, and before I knew it, I was up to B level.

　The Adventurer's Guild in Glendale is larger than the guilds in other countries.

　Among them, I was a high-ranking adventurer.

　I have a wife and two sons who have already stepped into the realm of being called a veteran.

　Well, I think I've done reasonably well.

　My main job these days is to train the younger generation.

　It's my job to teach them the rookies how to be adventurers.

　There are times when I'm asked to hunt monsters, but I don't go to dangerous places as much as I used to.

　I'm getting older, and more importantly, I've got a family now.

　Incidentally, the guild pays for training newcomers. If he grows up to be a good adventurer, he could become the guild's breadwinner in the future.

　Since the amount of money you get is quite a bit, sometimes this is better than going hunting.

　It's easier and safer.

　That's why I take on the job of training new recruits and overseeing promotional exams.

　Of course, I don't leave any stone unturned when I'm asked to do so.

　If a rookie is in danger during training or testing, I'll step up to defend him or her, and if they're messing around, I'll give them a hard time.

　If you lick a demon, what awaits you is death.

　Some of them gave up on being adventurers after I preached to them so hard.

　But that's a good thing.
　Being an adventurer is a life-giving job.


　For the first time in a long time, the guild gave me the job of overseeing the examinations for promotion.

　It was a promotion exam from F level to E level.

　Specifically, they wanted me to supervise the promotion exams for Hurt and his friends who have been active in this guild recently.

　I knew Hurt and the others well.

　It's unusual for a new adventurer to be in a group that takes the lead in cleaning the underground waterways and other tasks that most newcomers would be reluctant to do.

　Then again, those guys were always receiving requests from five parties. In total, there were nearly twenty of them. That was also a factor that became a hot topic of conversation within the guild.

　And since there were so many beauties among its members, I knew they would cause trouble soon.

　It's not uncommon for senior adventurers to get involved when a newcomer walks around with a beautiful woman.

　Basically, I don't interfere in the squabbles that occur outside the guild, but I often intercede in the squabbles that occur within the guild.

　I knew that Hurt's party would be the same.

　But no matter how long it took them to get involved in the adventurers around them, they never got involved.

　I don't know why, but I didn't feel like talking to the women that Hurt was hanging out with either.

　From a distance, I think they're beautiful, but when I get close to them, I don't feel like talking to them.

　Why is that?

　........Well, I have a wife, so it doesn't really matter.


　Now, Hurt and the others' promotion exam is tomorrow.

　Normally, the test is to see if they can capture goblins and defeat them, or if they can work together with their friends in battle, but it seems that they have already defeated a bunch of goblins.

　Besides, it seems that they had handled many requests that other newcomers wouldn't, and they had a good reputation among the guild's receptionists.

　The requests that newcomers dislike are often the ones where the rewards are low and you get a lot of guild points in return.

　Incidentally, it's more convenient for the guild to have adventurers who are willing to work just to grant guild points rather than pay money.

　Because of these conditions, the guild master personally told me that I could make the promotion exam for Hurt and the others a simple one (slime slaying).

　As expected, I thought it was too weak to have slime as an opponent for the promotion test, but I was willing to let them be promoted without the test in the first place.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.

　I have a hunch, but I don't think I can beat Hurt. Maybe even if there were a hundred of us, it wouldn't be enough.

　Well, just a hunch.
　Forget what I just said.


　So, we've come to the mountains near King's Landing to look for slime, and 'Catch us! I found five slimes pulling in front of me as I said.

　Hurt and the others will take the test tomorrow in five parties. One slime per party........yeah, just right.

　They've seen me, but they won't attack or run.

　Slime is a mindless monster, so it's rare to find one like this.

　Normally I would attack them and seal the weakened demon in the scrolls and use it in the promotion test...

　I sort of hit the scroll to the intact slime.


'....Really?

　I was able to seal five slimes without any resistance.

　He knew that there were demons that could tame without resistance, but he didn't know that there were demons that could seal the scrolls without causing any damage at all.

　This is because unlike tames, which are used by the agreement of both the user and the tamer, the scrolls have no advantage to the one being sealed.

　Moreover, these slimes, it's as if they entered the scroll on their own....


　No, as expected, that's not true.

　Well, let's just be happy that I finished my work early.

　I want to go home quickly and see my sons' faces.

　I collected the scroll with the slime in it and decided to go home to my family, who were waiting for me.
