Boy Who Has Been Reincarnated Twice Spends Peacefully as an S-Rank Adventurer, ~ I who was a Sage an

''The demons that Gyro-san defeated are 5 A-ranked and 12 B-ranked demons, plus 8 C-ranked and 13 D-ranked demons.

" " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " "

"Seriously?　That kid is a nanimon!

The other adventurers who had participated in the defeat let out a cry of surprise at the large number of demons that Jairo-kun had defeated.

After the end of the massive defeat was declared, we were assessing the demons we defeated at the Adventurer's Guild's travel window set up in the wilderness.

Liliera-san and Gyro-kun in particular were in a defeating match, so they would be interested in the results.

''I'll be next.''

Liliera-san takes out the corpses of the demons she defeated from the magic bag and lays them out.

Oh yes, I gave Rieliela-san, Jairo and the others the magic bag I made for them.

After all, it's a large scale battle this time, so it would have been troublesome to carry it to the window every time.

''Let's see........the demons that Liliella-san defeated were 8 A-ranked, 15 B-ranked, and 15 C-ranked demons.

" " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " "

She's not just a piece of shit!

"Who the hell are they?

So the odds are 38 to 38, that's a tie.

"Oh, shit!　It's a draw!

When he hears it's a draw, Gyro roars that he's not convinced.

'No, Gyro lost,'

But Mina declared Jairo's defeat.

''What?　It's a draw, why do I lose?

Jairo's words caused a look of confusion on Mina's face as she said, "You don't understand.

The answer is quality.

Quality?

At Mina's words, we look at the demons that the two of us hunted.

''Oh, I see, it's the rank of the demons we defeated.

And Norbu understands Mina's true intentions.

'Hey, what do you mean by that, Norbu?'

Jairo-kun, who still doesn't understand, demands an explanation from Norbu-san.

''In other words, the numbers are the same, but Liliera-san is hunting more high-ranking demons than you are.

'It's not just that. The gyro was fighting in a way that was good enough to beat him, so the material isn't in good shape. The purchase price will probably go down quite a bit. But they've taken care to make sure that the demons Liliella-san defeated are minimally damaged.

'Seriously...'

Gyro didn't realize that fact until he was told.

Well, I guess there's a difference in experience in this area.

Ririela, who has been an adventurer for longer than Jairo, was able to do this unconsciously.

That's why this game is a win for Riela-san.

'd*mn!　I lost!

Jairo-kun is frustrated as he steps on the ground.

'Well, even so, we're the same in numbers, so I can't say anything great either.

And as Mr. Liliera humbled himself, Gyro-kun stopped his groundhog and looked at Mr. Liliera.

'No, a loss is a loss!　I'm willing to admit defeat. Right now, you're better than me.　But the next time I fight, I won't lose!

Yeah, I'm looking forward to it.

Then they shake hands.

Yeah, it looks like the two of them have put their game together nicely.

It's Lex-san's turn next.

Liliella and Jairo-kun stare at me.

"We didn't really hunt much, though.

I leave the defeated monster on the ground.

I mean, isn't that thing huge?　Where did you drag him out of there?

That's what he is, a rookie who claims to have beaten an S-ranked guy.

"Did you win the battle against Cyclone Roddy?

Wait, why do you think I fought Roddy directly?

All I did was have a demon slaying contest.

The other thing I need is a green dragon.

Then, with all the demons lined up, I take out the green dragon and ask the receptionist to assess it at the end of the day.

"'D-Dragons?

People around me are surprised, but we took down a green dragon the other day and I'm sure it's not such a rare creature.

''Sho, please wait a moment.''

The receptionist called out to the other staff members who were walking nearby, and several of the staff members split up to begin the assessments.

And with everyone looking on, all the assessments were done.

'Well, Lex-san's assessment results are. One dragon, nine S-ranks.......

Nine S-ranked creatures?

How in the world did you defeat them?

The adventurers around me shout in surprise again.

That's my brother!

Well, it's about what you'd expect.

On the other hand, Gyro-kun and the others didn't seem particularly surprised.

Well, it's Green Dragon and the weaker one, S-rank.

''And there are 25 A-ranks, 34 B-ranks, and 57 C-ranks.

"'Many!'

Yeah?　I don't think there are that many of them, right?

We just happened to round up all the demons that were coming towards the royal capital.

''We knew it, but when the results were put into words, our game was a tiny battle of wills.

"My brother is aiming for a big fish this time, so I thought we might win in numbers. I didn't expect a triple-digit number...

Oh, you were just thinking about that, so you were taking him down at random.

Jairo-kun's muttering convinced Mina to understand.

''Because, I participated in the defeat with my brother. That's why you want to compete. It's a good idea to have a good time with them.

Thus, the end of the large scale demon defeat came to an end in a peaceful atmosphere.

But we still didn't know at that time that a major incident had occurred behind the scenes.

........By the way, I think we forgot something?

You're not going to be able to do that.

A few days later, we were lounging in the guild after the large-scale defeat.

The other adventurers were relaxed right after the big battle, but for some reason the atmosphere in the guild is strange today.

It's not just the adventurers, but also the staff members seem to be in a state of unrest.

'Hey, how's the economy?　I heard that you took down a dragon?

And then Roddy, an S-ranked adventurer, and his friends came underneath us.

''Ah.''

'Yes, I thought I'd forgotten something, but I forgot about Mr. Roddy.

'Hmm?　What's going on?

'Oh no, it was nothing. Speaking of which, how did Roddy and the others do on the big take down?　Did you hunt a lot of S-ranked demons after all?

Roddy-san and the others are a team of S-ranked adventurers.

They must have defeated a lot of S-ranked monsters.

"No, we didn't defeat any S-ranked monsters this time.

What?

That's surprising. I thought you'd be defeating a lot of S-ranked demons.

We were asked by the guild to take the initiative in defeating S-ranked demons, so we went all over the area that we were in charge of looking for S-ranked demons, but for some reason we couldn't find one. But for some reason we didn't see any of them, so we only fought other demons we encountered while we were looking for them.

Oh, come to think of it, the time I defeated an S-ranked demon was also outside the designated area.

But I wonder if Roddy-san and his team don't have anyone who can use exploration magic?

I'm sure you can use it to find out the location of all the demons in the surrounding area of several kilometers.

However, if the dragon is defeated, we'll lose.

Hahaha, said Roddy-san with a dry laugh.

But it's a green dragon that we defeated.

I can't say that I defeated a dragon too loudly.

'Well, that's all over now. And more importantly, did you hear that?　A story about how a certain nobleman was planning a coup d'état and for some reason he didn't carry it out and turned himself in.

"Coup?

There's a dangerous word again.

I heard that since this guy turned himself in, the noble families who were working with him are being held up like potatoes.

Huh...?　But what's the point of turning yourself in if you don't do it?

Apparently, all the demons we were preparing for the coup were hunted down during the recent large-scale defeat.

What do you mean "coup strength"?　That was a demon we were fighting, wasn't it?

Mina questioned Roddy's words.

'That's it, but I've heard that the coup's perpetrators have devised a way to manipulate demons using an ancient secret art.

""How to control a demon?

Hmm?　Everyone shouts out in amazement, but the control of demons has been studied for a long time, and there have been some successes in its own right.

Of course, it is not possible to control any kind of demon, but.

The fact that the people who hid such a warfare force were actually the knights of this country is surprising.

A coup d'état by the Order?

The fact that I yelled out loudly without thinking makes the eyes of the people around me turn to us.

''Oh, it seems that the people who are well-informed have already obtained this information and are working on various things,''

I see, that's why the adventurers and staff members were strangely buoyant this morning.

The knights defending the country have committed a scandal and even turned themselves in. The top brass is in turmoil. And everyone is tense because the adventurers might also be affected by this.

It's true that the job of the Knights is to protect the country, but defeating bandits and large groups of demons is also essentially the job of the Knights.

If the Knights are unable to do such work, the Adventurer's Guild might receive a large request.

No doubt it's a profitable business, but the danger level will increase significantly.

''But why are they turning themselves in?　If you hadn't already done the coup, you should have just kept your mouth shut.

Yeah, it seems that not only did he fail to control the dragon he had prepared as his trump card, but he was also broken by the way he so easily defeated the dragon.

Huh, I didn't know they had a dragon for a coup.

They must have been strong dragons, maybe a gold dragon?　Or is it the Ancient Dragon?

What kind of an adventurer would slay a dragon like that?

""I'm talking about you!"

What?　Why is everyone in the guild rushing into this?

How can a green dragon be used for a coup d'etat?

Oh my god, you save your country and you have no idea what you're doing!

Very true. Well, that's more like my brother.

And for some reason, everyone was taken aback by it.
