YLTESCIA: A Reincarnator's Tale in the Lands of Merusia

Chapter 12: Black Silver

"F-rank...?" ［Receptionist］

A silent voice of shock and disbelief echoed in the air as the receptionist saw the results of Grey and Yuna's exams. Even when she had said their guild's motto earlier, she still wasn't expecting to see such results,

"Is there something wrong?" ［Grey］

"A-Ah! There's nothing wrong, I was just surprised by how high your assessments are. I didn't think you two would become F-rankers right off the bat." ［Receptionist］

In all her time being a receptionist, it was her first time seeing such perfect results, especially when the ones taking them were younger than her. Not to mention that it was personally done by the Guildmaster himself.

Previously, she had only seen Grey and Yuna as youths trying out their luck on adventuring, but after seeing their results, she had realized how wrong she was. She now felt a strong sense of admiration for the youths in front of her.

Quickly recovering from her initial shock, the receptionist then quickly processed the remaining steps and finally registered the two in the Adventurer's guild. With a simple wave of her hand, the data of Grey and Yuna's registration was quickly uploaded into the guild's database using a strange magical tool.

"Here are your cards." ［Receptionist］

Shortly after, white-colored cards were issued to Grey and Yuna as proof of their registration and affiliation to the guild. While not made of paper, it also wasn't made of metal, it was a card which could only be explained by magic.

Receiving their cards, Grey's heart beat faster as if he was running a thousand miles per hour. He had finally achieved it, he had become an adventurer!

Yuna's reaction wasn't far off either. Like every time she found something interesting, her eyes once again sparkled at the sight of her guild card. Especially after thinking she now has another matching item with Grey.

"Ah, thank you miss... umm..." ［Grey］

"Tilda, you can call me Tilda. I'll be in your care from now on." ［Tilda］

"Then we'll intrude on your kindness, Miss Tilda." ［Grey］

"Nice to meet you." ［Yuna］

With a beaming smile on her face, the fox-girl receptionist introduced herself to Grey in Yuna. Similarly, the two reciprocated Tilda's introduction with a smile of their own.

"Ah, right. Miss Tilda, we'd like to form a party!" ［Grey］

The Party System, a system in the adventurer's guild which allows adventurers of similar ranks to form an alliance and create a party. It could either be temporary or permanent, either way, parties are designed to make quests easier to accomplish and lower the mortality rates of adventurers from doing quests.

"A party?" ［Tilda］

"Is it impossible?" ［Grey］

"Ah, sorry... it is possible. I was just surprised that you would form one on your first day. Normally, rookie adventurers would go solo for months so that they won't have to share the rewards. It's only when they rank-up and face harder quests that they decide to form a party." ［Tilda］

At first, Grey thought that something had changed in the guild's party system like the examinations before, but thankfully, that wasn't the case.

"Well, since you're starting at F-rank, I suppose it would make sense why you would form a party immediately. Quests at F-rank are nothing to scoff at, after all, It's better to be safe than to be sorry." ［Tilda］
