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

Congratulations, Mr. Lex. With the accomplishment of this request, Lex-san has been upgraded to a D-rank.

When I returned to the Adventurer's Guild after collecting my first medicinal herbs, the receptionist, Elma-san, said something like that to me.

''Yes?''

It's funny. My adventurer rank is F, and the request I've accomplished is an F-ranked herb collection.

What's more, I'm working as an adventurer for the first time today?

"How the hell did you get ranked up all of a sudden?

I don't get it!

Oh!　That's my brother Lex!　You've already upgraded to a D-rank!

My fellow adventurer, Jairo, shouts out excitedly.

Ever since I rescued him from Evilboa just a few minutes ago, he started calling me his big brother and started pining for me all the time.

Moreover, he says he wants to be your brother.

The gyro is over here. You are going to confirm the request to take out the goblins and kobolds.

Oh, a fellow wizard took me away.

'Ani-ni-kiii.'

It's like a dog being taken forcibly for a walk.

Well, it's not a bad feeling to be favored by someone like that.

In my previous life and past life, the people who surround me were all trying to take advantage of me as a hero or a wise man, or steal my research.

Then, this is the reward for collecting 50 bunches of herbs and 15 silver coins. Next.........

Wait a minute!

Yes, can I help you?

"So how come I got a "D" rating?　Isn't that strange?　Isn't there some kind of mistake!

But for some reason, Elma-san kept her smile on her face.

''There's no mistake. Indeed, Lex is definitely a D-ranked adventurer. Let me explain that to you now.

Oh, yes.

What, I thought you were gonna tell me.

First of all, let me tell you about the herb collection. We are very grateful that you have purchased a large quantity of high quality medicinal herbs from us. We are very grateful for the large amount of good quality herbs that we have purchased. And the assessment team praised you for being very careful in the way you collect the medicinal herbs.

Uh, thank you.

It's kind of nice to get a compliment on how to properly collect medicinal herbs.

It's good to know the medicinal part of it, thanks to the research I did on potions in my previous life.

''Next, I was asked to make an additional assessment of the multiple Evil Boas.

Mu, here you are, Evilboa.

''This Evilboa thing is exactly why Lex-san was promoted to a D-rank.

Evilboa?

''Yes, the Evil Boar is originally a class of demon to be defeated by B-rank adventurers. Moreover, defeating more than one of them would be a loss for the guild to be in the F rank. Originally we wanted to raise the rank to B, or at least to C, but Lex-san was an F-rank who had never received a request, so we decided to limit him to D-rank to avoid getting into troublesome trouble.

Oh, I'm glad to hear that.

It's because I got caught up in the commotion for being weirdly conspicuous in both my past life and my previous life.

The Adventurer's Guild is a good organization to have that kind of concern for me.

''In that sense, the matter of buying the dragon's materials is also a rank-up case, but if that thing turns out to be what Lex-san did, it's going to be even more troublesome, so we've temporarily put the rank assessment of the dragon extermination on hold.

'Oh, that's fine. Because it's a green dragon.

That's natural. If a problem arises with an assessment of the size of a green dragon, that's a lot of trouble.

''No, it's important that it's a dragon... no, it's nothing.

Huh?　For some reason, Elma-san is sighing deeply.

That's right, she's talking about how she's going to be busy at this time of day with the reception of purchases and requests fulfilled.

Is it bad to talk for too long?

''So, the material for the Evil Boar........''

Yeah, yeah, I'm pretty confident that was a clean hunt.

I even magically froze the area around the wound right away to prevent germs from entering the wound.

''I'm sorry, but those Evil Boars are too numerous and in too good a condition, so it's still impossible for our guild to buy them all.

Again?

Wow!　This won't bring in any income at all!

No, I got the money for the herbs, though.

''Therefore, I would like to purchase one of them at the Adventurer's Guild, my lord will buy one of them, and I would like to offer the remaining three at the King's Capital auction.

Huh?

''Even as an adventurer's guild, such a clean defeat of a large demon is a valuable resource. For that reason, we will purchase it with our research.

Ooh!　I'm being judged for my skills at defeating them!　It was worth it for all the hard work you did to make the wound smaller!　But I'm so embarrassed to be a researcher.

Then you wouldn't mind doing the same for the rest of the Evil Boar?

Oh, yes.

Thank goodness I have income for two cows for now.

I wonder if that will cover our immediate living expenses.

I wonder how much it will be!

''Our guild will purchase an entire head for a thousand gold coins.

...What?

How much is it now?

''A thousand gold coins. Since we can't have it ready immediately in immediate money, I'll enter 100 gold coins and 900 gold coins in the passbook with the Guild Bank's deposit.

"A thousand gold coins!

My words caused a commotion around me.

I shouldn't have said it, I couldn't help myself.

Because a bunch of 10 medicinal herbs is worth 3 coppers!

Well, 10 coppers equals 1 silver coin and 10 silver coins equals 1 gold coin, so 1,000 gold coins equals 10,000 coppers, which is about 3333 times more than collecting medicinal herbs?

''Hey, there must be some kind of mistake!

But Elma-san shook her head.

'Lex-san, large demons are very difficult to defeat cleanly. The larger the clean parts of their fur, skin, and scales, the more valuable they are. In that sense, the value of an entire Evil Boar's entire fur is very valuable.

''Is that so?''

''And although the lord's emissary has approached me about purchasing Evilboa, we have yet to receive an exact amount of money for this one. However, the lord, Viscount Grimoire, is a nobleman with a large and fertile estate, so I'm sure he'd be willing to pay a higher price than the Adventurer's Guild for it.

You think you can get more than 1,000 gold pieces for this?

It's an Evil Boar!

Are you sure you want to pay that much for this?

There are a lot of better monsters in the demon world!

''And as for the auction, I'm sorry, but just like the dragon case, it won't be worth it right away, so please be patient.

'Oh, yes, that's fine. Speaking of which, what's going on with the dragon auction?

But it was yesterday, today, so I'm not expecting it to happen.

''The dragons were brought out early this morning for the royal capital. The auction will be held in three days at the earliest, but the game may have already begun among the quick-eared nobles.

Is that so?

The information network of the nobles is amazing.

''The dragon's bid will definitely be higher than Evilboa's, so please wait and see!

Elma-san clenches her fist in a guffaw and winks at me.

''Ha, ha ... I'm counting on it.

How much would a dragon be worth when it's 1,000 gold coins in an Evil Boar?

Oh, yeah, I forgot to tell you something important.

As I was putting 100 gold coins, which were part of the price for the prepared Evil Boa, into the magic bag, Elma-san suddenly said something like that.

''Is it something important?''

Yes, my lord, Viscount Grimoire, invites you to dinner.

'Oh, that's good. I'll pass.

It's too much trouble, so I quickly pass.

Is that so? I see.

Elma-san also agreed to flow.

'.........What?　What are you refusing?　It's an invitation from my lord!

She didn't agree to it.

Because it's too much trouble to deal with a nobleman.

But it's a great honor!　If you're good at what you do, you can even be knighted!

That's even more of a problem.

No, I really don't think so. I just want to live a simple life.

What?

Elma looks at me like, "What are you talking about?　I don't know what to say.

I don't think it's appropriate for a beautiful woman to look like that.

Then I'll be on my way.

I hurriedly left the guild so as not to get into any more trouble.

"Wait, wait, Lex-san!

I can't hear you, I can't hear you.

Well, if I give Mr. Aug back the money, we're going to have a big dinner today!

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

Have you heard the rumor?

We were having a conversation about a rumor.

'Yes, I've heard about it, there's going to be a dragon on the auction block.

And I hear the dragon's body is in surprisingly good condition.

'I heard that he was knocked down by cutting his head in half. I wonder what kind of magic sword could do such a thing?

As I suspected, everyone has knowledge of the dragons.

It's a fact that orcishonians are all about the ear.

But this information would have been lost on them.

Have you heard that someone witnessed the dragon's extermination?

What?　Who the hell was watching us?

I don't think they got any news from you.

No, some of us already have.

That's Lord Leão. "Sir Leão, on a top-secret mission, he encountered a dragon.

What's a top secret mission?　I didn't know that!

I see. No wonder you haven't seen Lord Leao for a few days.

My friends have ten different impressions of my information.

The one who was particularly surprised by the word "mission" was the military service faction's Sir Argyle.

He was quite surprised that the knight's mission was not communicated to him.

''What exactly was Sir Liuo's mission?

''Well, well, Sir Argyle, we're talking about dragons now. And it would be somewhat impolite to find out what the secret mission was.

Oh, well, the finance faction, Lord Muzi, is agitated.

The word "disrespect" is as good as saying that it's an order from our higher ups.

That means you're not trusted by him.

"Ugh.

Lord Argyle growls in frustration.

Well, the military service faction and the financial faction have always been bad with each other.

'Sir Leeo said that a strange boy suddenly fell from the sky, jumped the dragon's head off and left again in the sky.

"The sky?　What the hell does Lord Leao think he's talking about?

"And thanks to you, the high priests say this case is closed by an angel.

The salon breaks out in laughter at my jokes.

But not everyone's eyes are laughing.

With this little information, they are deducing Lord Leao's top-secret mission, the mysterious boy who is said to have slayed the dragon, and even more importantly, what the weapon that cut off the dragon's head was.

But the top priority is obviously the winning bid for the dragon at the auction.

Now what is to be done?

Who should we team up with to obtain the materials we seek?

It is difficult to decide on that partner.

Our night is far from over....

"Good evening, gentlemen!　That Evil Boa is going to be up for auction!

""What?"

The salon was in an uproar at the information that was suddenly brought to them.

'An Evil Boar after the Dragon?

No, it's the dragons.

And the Evil Boa is in such unbelievable shape that they could make a whole rug out of it!

""What did you say?

I don't believe it! A whole pelt of Evil Boar over 10 meters long?

They'd be just as good as the halls of King's Landing if they were on offer!

Moreover, I heard they're selling all three of them in the same condition!

""What?

The difficulty level of defeating these monsters is so high that they're selling high quality materials in a row?

This is something that only happens once every few years, or maybe even once every ten years!

Moreover, the one who submitted the Evil Boar was the adventurer's guild from Togai, the same guild that submitted the dragon we've been hearing about!

"What did you say?

What in the world is going on in that town?
