Re:Zero: Starting from the Great Transformation

Two months passed quietly.

After passing through the forest and the jaws of the red dragon, we followed the convoy to the territory of the Principality of Basherant, which meant that we had officially stepped into the territory of the northern continent.

The second city, Rosenberg.

Goose-feather-like snowflakes drifted down from the sky, covering the city in a blanket of silver. People walking on the streets were wrapped in thick clothing, and adventurers and merchants could be seen everywhere.

This is the window to the Principality of Basherant and the Kingdom of Asura.

The magic tools that flow out of this city can be sold at a good price in the Kingdom of Asura. In addition, the large number of monsters in the northern continent has given rise to the active adventurer profession, making this border city extremely lively.

It is certainly not easy to make a living here, but I still decided to stay here for a while.

Recently, because I have been working with Susanna and the others, I haven't been fighting with all my strength, so I have saved up a lot of healing magic scrolls that can be sold at a good price.

That way, I should be able to relax for a while.

But what I mean by relaxing doesn't mean being able to lie in the hotel and sleep every day.

Instead, they can ignore the limit on the commission amount and accept commissions that have low returns but may involve fighting powerful monsters.

fighting.

Gain experience through combat.

Even against monsters.

He kept trying to make his sword faster, more accurate, and more efficient in killing his opponents, and one day, he would reach the Saint level.

This was the advice Orsted gave me before he left.

I still remember it to this day.

……

……

After going to the Adventurer's Guild with the main force to deliver the commission, we received the reward for this commission.

Although it is an A-level commission, the remuneration needs to be distributed because it is undertaken by multiple people.

A-rank Rudeus took the lion's share, while B-rank [Counter Arrow] and I split the rest.

Overall, it is a considerable income.

After delivering the commission, I found a hotel nearby to stay.

The hotels opened for adventurers are very cheap and have all the necessary furniture.

And because we are in the north, there is actually something like a fireplace, which is really great.

After packing the luggage.

I wrote down everything that happened recently in my diary.

I've been keeping a diary for three years now, ever since I came into this world. Having said that, most of the time, I only record trivial things.

That being said.

Someday in the future, maybe I will look at the diary I once wrote and smile with relief.

After finishing my diary, the fatigue from the journey gradually washed over me. I couldn’t bear it any longer, so I just lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

That night, I had a dream that I hadn't had in a long time.

I dreamed that someone called my name.

But the man's voice became farther and farther away, and finally could not be heard clearly.

……

……

When I woke up, it was already early morning the next day.

Starting today, adventurer activities will officially begin in this city.

As a newly arrived adventurer, if you don't want to pick up the leftovers of the locals, you have to learn to get up early and work early. This is the experience I have summed up after being active as a lone traveler for two months.

Take this into consideration.

I came to the Adventurer's Guild very early.

Just as I expected.

When I arrived at the union, quite a few people were already gathered in the hall.

Some of them were sitting at the tables in the hall, chatting and glancing at the people walking in from time to time.

Most people gathered around the notice board where the commissions had just been posted, considering which commissions they could accept.

"Sorry, sorry, move aside, move aside!"

I forced my way into the crowd and began to check the commissions amid the noisy surroundings.

My current level is B.

The rules of the Adventurer's Guild are that you can take on commissions of the previous and next levels, which means that I can take on both C-level and A-level commissions. Of course, the best choice is still B-level.

[A-rank commission: Defeat the Rasta bear tribe nesting near Lake Kukulu.]

[B-rank commission: Escort a caravan delivering goods to the Principality of Neris.]

[B-rank commission: Guarding a large-scale logging project in Hadora Forest.]

These three commissions placed close together caught my attention.

Ha...that's incredible.

I quickly realized that this place was different from the Kingdom of Asura.

The Kingdom of Asura is very peaceful, monsters are quite rare, and even the number of B-rank commissions is not large.

However, the bulletin board here is full of B-level and A-level commissions, which means that the surrounding environment is such a dangerous one.

Of course, it can't be compared with the Demon Continent.

The A-level commission is to subjugate the Rasta bear tribe.

Rasta bears are pack monsters. I can handle them with my strength, but if there are too many of them, I'll be in a tough fight... It seems a bit difficult for me with my strength.

Moreover, this is a commission that requires forming a team, so I can only give up.

Then there are the B-level commissions.

The first B-level commission is to escort a caravan to the Principality of Neris.

It's quite profitable in terms of price, but it's still a team commission.

To be honest, I'm not really willing to join a team. Since I've had a lot of money recently, I want to enjoy the battle to the fullest. It would be best if the commission is one that allows me to use all my strength without exceeding my limit.

Besides, I have no plans to leave now.

Anyway, give up on this one.

The second B-level commission is to escort the logging team to complete the task of felling the magic wood.

This commission seems to be fine...

Think so.

I reached out and took off the commission to protect the logging team.

And at the same time.

With his other hand, he took the A-rank commission to defeat Rasta Bear.

I subconsciously looked in the direction of that hand.

Then, as expected, I saw a familiar figure.

"Rudeus? You're here so early too."

"Uh, it's Ron. Good morning."

Rudius hung his head and responded in a very unfocused manner.

The tone seems perfunctory.

Adventurer Chapter: 29, Invitation and Recommendation

"It's Ron, good morning."

Rudeus responded casually.

After not seeing him for a day, he still looked listless, with a gloomy expression that looked as if water was about to drip from his face.

Even with such a gloomy expression, he spoke in a polite tone.

how to say……

I kind of understand why Zoldat is upset with him.

Because this look really deserves a beating.

"By the way, do you want to accept this commission?"

My eyes fell on Rudeus's commission to subdue the Rasta bears, which would be difficult for me to handle with my strength.

However, Rudeus took it without hesitation.

"Well, this... I think it should be okay."

Rudeus said expressionlessly.

"I've told you before, haven't I? My mother disappeared during the Great Migration, and there's been no news since. So I'm planning to make a name for myself so she can hear about me... well, that's how it is, anyway."

He was clearly not in high spirits.

But for the sake of my mother, I still had to explain it.

"Wouldn't an A-rank commission be too much for you?"

"Huh? It's just A-rank."

Rudeus said this as a matter of course.

As a magician who has traveled across the Demon Continent, I do have the confidence to say so.

In fact, I had tried this before when I was traveling in the Demon Continent with Orsted, but I finally concluded that if I relied on myself, I could only support the journey in the Demon Continent for three days at most.

Then, due to lack of energy, they will be defeated by monsters.

"Well, whatever makes you happy."

As we were saying this, we had already arrived at the front desk to complete the entrustment procedures.

My commission was approved smoothly.

However, when it came to Rudeus, an accident occurred.

"Um... Where's your team?"

"Huh? I don't have a team. I want to complete this commission alone."

“That’s a bit…”

The union workers looked embarrassed.

"I'm sorry, but it's a bit... difficult for one person to handle this. This is an A-rank commission, and it requires a team. Anyway, if I give it to you, I'm afraid..."

"Can't you?"

Rudeus frowned.

Actually this is normal.

Rudeus's rank is A, so he should be able to take on this commission.
