While the guild was buzzing with the success in defeating Aldrete Crow's fire dragon, Tsutomu looked at the PT reflected in the first table and roared in admiration. It consisted of 1 tank, 1 healer, and 2 attackers. The clan leader was a summoner, so he didn't know the details, but Tsutomu guessed that he was probably closer to a tank, considering the composition.


''Oh, you're pretty quick.''
Huh. He's getting there first. That d*mn brat will definitely send me a letter or something. He wants to know how it's going.


　The guild is topsy-turvy due to Aldrete Crow's fire dragon breakthrough. Leon scratched his head while laughing abominably as he said that.


''But thanks to Aldoret Crow, it's been proven that this method of warfare can defeat the fire dragons. The golden investigation can be done in a month's time at this rate, right?　Now if the movement is right and Barbara gets used to the aerial maneuvering of the fly, I feel we can do it.
Yeah. ...Actually, Tsutomu, I need to talk to you.
Oh, no, I don't do solicitation.
...... Well, I thought it was impossible from the moment I heard you were looking for a mate.
The form is already in place, so you guys can do the rest. It's going to work out better that way. Everyone's muscles are not bad, so I think it will be fine.


　Leon's shoulders slumped disappointedly as Tsutomu lightly taunted him. And when Tsutomu said that to the golden study PT, Barbara looked regretful and Eunice had no expression on her face. Diniel raised his hand in a light-hearted manner, saying, "Good work.


''Mr. Tsutomu, are you going away now?　You still have time, right?
'Yes. My initial expectation was that I was prepared to teach him for about two months, but Barbara was moderately good, so I was able to finish in a little over a month.
I see.


　Barbara seemed to know that this was flattery, and she did not seem to be too pleased. Then she took her helmet and held it aside and bowed her head, then grasped Tsutomu's hand firmly in both hands.


'Thanks to Tsutomu, I have hope to continue being an explorer. Thank you so much.
'No, no, I've been a little hard on Barbara in some ways. You did a great job. I learned a lot from you, too.
Ugh. Thank you so much, really. I'm glad to be a seeker...


　She could explore the dungeon without her heavy knight self shying away from the others, and she felt herself useful. For Barbara, exploring the canyon earlier was like a dream come true. I'm sure you'll be able to find a lot more information on this topic.

　As Barbara sniffed and put her iron-wrapped arms to her eyes, Tsutomu gave her a few gentle remarks, then lightly patted her back and pushed her. Then, as he was about to leave, Eunice called out to him in a panic.


''Wow, isn't there something for me!
'What?　.... well, good luck with that.
Screw you, sir.　One day I'll definitely pull out the Tutu, and now I'm waiting for you to wash your head!
Uh-huh.


　Tsutomu looked down at Eunice, who was stepping on the ground, then looked at Leon behind him and he smiled grandly and clasped his hands together. Tsutomu chuckled at Leon, but finished with a chuckle.


'Then thank you for your hard work. Keep up the good work.''


　With that, Tsutomu hurriedly left the guild and returned to the inn. After finishing his reception, Tsutomu entered his room and sat down on his bed and looked puzzled. Tsutomu didn't expect Aldrete Crow to defeat the fire dragons so quickly, so he pondered what to do.

　Tsutomu thought that a seventy level PT would be able to defeat the fire dragon with plenty of time to spare as long as he had the basics of the three roles, but he didn't expect to clear it in one shot. Indeed, even though he was used to taking on fire dragons many times before that, Tsutomu thought that he would be wiped out several times right after he was introduced.

　However, Aldoret Crow's informants had been observing that PT since Tsutomu and the other PTs had attacked the thirty levels. So since they had been the first to adopt the movements of tanks and healers, their growth was several levels higher than the other clans.

　Aldoret Crow has a system of evaluating clan members every month and rebuilding their PTs. They then set quotas based on the abilities of each PT and make them achieve those quotas every day. Because of this, both tanks and healers are given the opportunity to continuously improve their skills, and there are level 70 tanks and their skills are not that bad.

　And since there is a risk that PT members who fail to meet their quota will be demoted to a lower army, PT members also work relatively diligently to explore dungeons.

　However, in a five-man PT, there are those who will inevitably fall to the lower ranks of the army because they are not blessed with enough members around them. That's why we have a system in place to evaluate each of the monitors with the help of information workers and the clerks who manage the quota table, and to pump up those who are judged to be capable.

　Aldoret Crow has the largest clan house among the major clans and is well equipped to promote efficient dungeon attack. There are rooms for clan members to sleep in comfortably, and cooks in the cafeteria who prepare delicious meals and lunches to take to dungeons. In addition, they even have male and female prostitutes.

　In addition, the clan has hired an exclusive blacksmith to check equipment and other things, and has hired an office worker to manage the equipment for each PT so that they can focus on exploring dungeons. There is no other clan welfare program in the world that is this well organized.

　However, Aldoret Crow also has a drawback. It is the absence of leaders and aces who represent the clan. The Red Demon Clan, the Golden Research and the Labyrinth Conqueror Squad have at least one person with unique skills, but Aldoret Crow doesn't have one.


(Is it okay........)


　Tsutomu was anxious to be treated as useless already, but he sent Aldoret Crow a letter stating that his instruction in the golden study was over.


　--▽▽▽--


Mr. Tsutomu!　Welcome to Aldoret Crow!


　Two days ago, Tsutomu's thoughts were unfounded. Tsutomu was warmly welcomed by Luke, the clan leader of Aldoret Crow, who held out his arms as if demanding a cuddle.

　After being invited into the very large clan house, Tsutomu bends down a little and shakes hands with Luke, and then speaks to him about two days ago, cutting to the chase.


''Oh, hi. Congratulations on the defeat of the fire dragon the other day.''
'Thank you!　It's all thanks to the material you gave me!　I'm pretty familiar with the fire dragon itself. All I had to do was apply it.
'I see. I thought it would be somewhat easier to teach since I've been watching it in single digits for a while now, but I didn't expect it to break through the fire dragon. And that was the first game where you introduced the tank and the healer, right?
'Yeah, I guess so. I figured the crowd would be more excited that way, so I had a pretty good plan and I managed to cover my moves with other things. The tank kid had never been a fire dragon before, so it was a lot of work, but we managed!　Isn't that great!


　Luke seemed to be in a good mood after the defeat of the fire dragon and said with an angelic smile as he sowed. When Tsutomu began to walk out when it was time for him to phase in, Luke seemed embarrassed, but led the way and began to show him around the clan house.

　A workshop where numerous head-toweled apprentices and masters were refining weapons. A dining room where numerous cooks were quickly prepping food to prepare meals for over a hundred clan members. In addition to the searcher clan members, clerks and cleaners often pass each other in the corridor, and Tsutomu was greeted several times.


''The facilities are amazing, even so, Aldoret Crow.
''That's right. I'm sure they're on par with the Maze Hegemony Squad. But that place is where your life depends on it. Even that isn't worth it.
Yeah, I guess so.


　Sullenly, Tsutomu followed Luke in sync and followed him to the front of a space divided by a light pink curtain.

　As Tsutomu looked at the place, which smelled like sweet perfume and had a slightly dim atmosphere, Luke looked up at him and gave him a suspicious smile.


'Do you want to take a peek?'
No, thank you.
Okay.


　Luke retracted his grin and turned around without saying anything in particular and continued to lead the way. Even as Tsutomu, he was a little, if not very interested, in the place, but he used his unparalleled reasoning and held back. If it was confirmed that he couldn't return to his original world, but until then, Tsutomu didn't want to have any unfinished business in this world.

　As Tsutomu continued to walk behind Luke for a while, he stopped in front of a large door. Luke cooed and pushed that door open with his body and found a number of explorers in various equipment.


'This is where the clan members meet, basically everyone meets here to check their equipment and supplies before heading to the dungeon. When Tsutomu-kun comes back, I'd like you to gather here.
Yes, sir.


　When Luke and Tsutomu walked into the room, the original clan members began to buzz around. I followed Luke and he took a seat for two, so Tsutomu sat in front across the desk.

　After calling out to the waiters, Luke took a breath, then made eye contact with Tsutomu and broke off the conversation.


'The first thing I'd like you to do, Tsutomu, is to take a look at our first army healer. If it's already written in that document, most of our first army healers should be able to do it, but I want you to see and evaluate it from your point of view.
'Okay. I'm looking forward to that.


　Tsutomu listened to Luke's words, even though he was inwardly venomous that he was very different from some fox girl. After drinking the tea served by the waiter with one hand, Luke picked up the documents brought by the clerk and put them out on the desk.


''And this might be a personal request, but can I ask you something?
Come in.
Thank you. This is a handout I got from Tsutomu-kun...


　Flipping through the pages, Luke pointed to a word from the material. Tsutomu also took a sip of tea and then looked at the material.


'I was wondering if you could elaborate on this "buffer" thing. It is written that this role includes bards and so on, right?
Yeah. Yes.
'Can I ask you more about this?　Of course I'll pay you extra for that.
'I see......... Well, if it's just an explanation, I don't need a reward. And it's not much of an explanation.
Really?　Yes!


　Luke, who has a neutral face and a childish face, raises his voice high. Tsutomu speaks up, thinking that this is over twenty.


''A buffer is mainly a role that provides support to allies. A white mage's protector or hastener. A bard's hymn of protection, for example, would fall into that category.
"Mmm-hmm.


　Luke takes the provided pen and begins to quickly write down Tsutomu's words. Tsutomu stops his words and looks at them to make sure Luke doesn't miss a word before continuing his explanation.


'And although it's not listed in that document, there's also something called a debuffer. This refers to the role of weakening a monster. It could be a black mage or an ash mage's paralyzing, or a granting magician's blinding.
..........
Basically, white mages and black mages often serve as buffers or debuffers. I'm also a buffer. But bards and grantors can do both, so their jobs are often buffers and debuffers at the same time. In those cases, I'll call them all buffers.


　The Bard is a skill that increases the STR (Attack Strength) of the entire PT. The Accompaniment Jutsuji can give monsters an abundance of status disorders, so live dungeons!　This is a job that the attacker efficiency kitchens declare Zuccotti to be quite strong in, and since it's the only job that can increase STR, it's a must-have job for those attackers who take pleasure in producing maximum DPS.


''That's about it. And Aldrete Crow seems to have a bard. I might consider it.''
"Mr. Tsutomu.


　Luke looks up at Tsutomu with serious eyes. Tsutomu can't help but correct his posture under his gaze.


''That buffer, even a granting magician can do it, right?
Yes, I can do that.
I see.


　Luke crossed his arms in earnest and thought for a moment, then looked up at Tsutomu again.


'Mr. Tsutomu. Can you do something called training that buffer?　I'm an endowment surgeon, and if I could, I'd appreciate it.
...a buffer.
Of course, the rewards will bounce.


　Seeing the bitter look on Tsutomu's face, Luke spoke up to fold. Tsutomu showed a pretense of being lost but offered him a proposal.


''Actually, I'm thinking of making a clan...''
Well it's the people you want. Hmm. But it's after the fire dragon was defeated, you know. ........in this case, I should have delayed it a bit longer.


　Tsutomu chuckled at Luke, who whispered to himself so that the others wouldn't hear.


'Is there anyone who looks just right? I hope it's at least thirty levels or so.''
''That would give you some candidates, but hmmm, I can't be sure. I can't promise you that.
Well....


　It's not a good idea to have a good idea of what to expect. I'm not sure if I'll have to ask the guild to mediate now, and Tsutomu looks up while changing his policy.


It's not a problem with the buffer. But about the interview for the fire dragon defeat, is it possible to have two other companies other than the Solit company to interview you for free?　I'd be grateful if you could make that a reward for me, for now.
'What?　If that's what you want, of course I'll take it!
'Thank you. Oh, but if you can, I'd like to have some human resources as well.


　Luke gave a thumbs-up to Tsutomu, who put his hand over his mouth and said in a whispered voice.
