About four months have passed since then.

During that time, the children who were going to be adventurers had acquired skills such as 'Collecting', 'Swordsmanship', 'Archery', 'Attitude Detection' and so on.

The two older ones began to come every time they came to collect, and with the increase in numbers, they were able to fight the grey wolf packs they hadn't fought before, and they were also improving their fighting skills.

The number of followers had also increased steadily.

My grandfather had caught the chicken monster 'Big Cocko' cow (dairy cow) monster 'Millhorn' for pancakes for Sakuya-chan.

I managed to turn him into a follower without fighting him because my level was rising and he wasn't that strong as a herbivorous monster.

This gave me a steady supply of eggs and milk, and sweets were no longer something I could rarely eat.

Speaking of sweets, honeybees were growing in number. Every time I went there, I made Honeybee a servant, but one day the number of servants increased even though I didn't make them servants.

I asked Queen Honeybee about it, and she said that thanks to the monster ward, she was able to safely give birth to children, and the number was increasing steadily.

By the way, the newly born Honey Bee was made a squire from the start.

He said that if he keeps this up, there might be a new queen born in the near future and a new nest.

And today was a day off from hunting and collecting. Today the two oldest have turned fifteen and come of age, so they are here to register with the Adventurer's Guild.

I'm nervous.

Oh, will I be able to register properly?

The two of them were nervous in front of the guild.

Well, it was only natural. From now on, they would have to live out of the orphanage.

That's why I have to become an adventurer and earn money.

Well, we can eat at the orphanage for the first time, and we're going to do requests together, so the only thing we need is money for lodging and everyday items?

I didn't want to stay in front of the guild forever, so I walked into the guild. The two of them hurriedly follow me.

I look around the reception area and see the usual sister, so I head that way.

The guild is empty since it's the middle of the day now, so I was able to talk to her right away.

''Hello, sister.''

'Hello. What's going on today?

I would like to have two adventurers register today.

''Yo, nice to meet you!

'Then please fill out this form.'

The sister handed me two sheets of parchment.

'Do you know how to write?'

Yeah.

Okay.

Now, please fill out the form as I explain to you what a guild is. First of all, the Adventurer's Guild is an organization of its own, not affiliated with a country. And the guild is an organization that assists the adventurers. It collects requests for adventurers, and adventurers perform the requests. Once the requests are completed, we pay them a reward or buy the materials.

Yes.

The guild sorts the requests and buys and sells materials so that adventurers can focus on the requests, such as collecting materials and defeating monsters. In addition, the guild pays taxes from the request fee, making it easy to get in and out of town and to and from the country.

''Heh~''

''And the adventurers will be divided into ranks and will receive requests that match their rank.

''What will our ranks be!

If you register as a member of the guild, you will be at 10th kyu at first. After that, you will be upgraded to 9th level and 8th level, with the highest being 1st level. If the guild approves of your rank, you will be able to take an exam to improve your rank. If you pass that exam, your rank will be upgraded.

''Tenth level, huh~''

By the way, your grandfather's a Grade 3 student.

"Master, great job!

May I? ........There are up to 10th level ranks, but 10th level is treated as an apprentice, and you can't take requests to kill them. Also, the requests are basically only for the whole town. However, in this town, children also collect in the dragon forest, so there are exceptionally low-difficulty collection requests.

''So what we do isn't that different from what we've been doing?''

'Yes, I don't think there's a problem with the collection. However, please note that if you want to improve your rank, you'll have to accept requests other than collection to take the test.

''I understand!''

'Then this will be your temporary guild card.'

They were handed a board made of wood.

''When you reach 9th level, you will receive your official guild certificate, so please do your best.''

Thus, the two of them tentatively registered with the guild.
