Thanks to a Different World Reincarnation

"Hey, it's been a while. Were you going somewhere?

When I saw the familiar face in the square, he was walking with a rare and grumpy face. When I spoke up, I went back to the usual floating guy, but still, it's not like I'm going to lose my earlier face.

"Do you want to go for a drink?

If there's something you want to spit out, it's your friend who's gonna ask you, right? He nodded happily at my invitation.

My name is Dennis. I'm a C-rank adventurer at first.

I left the city where I used to live and came to this city of Lienz six months ago. He said he had broken up a party in the previous city and tried to change the environment, but the decision was actually correct.

It's a pissing story, but there are some adventurers out there who are on a level and on track, making things go away and annoying the average person every now and then. Sooner or later, a guy like that will be crushed or crushed, but often the adventurer himself becomes distant because of all sorts of bluffing before that happens.

So most cities tend to see adventurers in a harsh way, but in this city the guild holds the reins well enough or the atmosphere of the adventurer itself calmed down in the first place. Probably has always been so for some period of time.

So the wind against adventurers is not so tight in this city, and when you rent a house, you won't be charged a flat rate at the adventurer's price, and you won't be seen by the average person in a liquor store with a frigid eye. Besides, this is the most important thing, but what a decent girlfriend I've got.

Your parents are familiar with each other, but they don't even object to dating you because you're an adventurer. It's a wonderful city.

That's why I've only been attached to this city for six months, and I don't think it's a bad idea to have a belt here.

As for me, who has a girlfriend like that, I had to choose an inexpensive liquor store that I didn't care about women as a store I was going to. I used to go to the type of store where there were women, but oh well, the store just has women sitting on the side and enjoying an audience and conversation, and it's not like they even go out with me to bed. I'm not cheating on you, so I just want you to forgive me for that, but if you still say no, I'll have to obey you.

"What would you think if I went to a store where guys would take advantage of me in the same way? What a day. Oh, I can't say anything back.

Well, I'm sure it's not a good time to hear about stupidity. I moved to a liquor store where my hair was pulled back just a little, but I couldn't help but drink.

"See you again."

When we put each other's glasses up, we drank a small amount of liquor out of it. Though only for one bite, the irritation with quite a bit of intense liquor going through my throat is tight, but for some reason I feel fulfilled and delicious there.

"Kuh-uh."

This first cup tastes great.

It is good to drink only a small amount of alcohol a little expensive this way, but it is also good to pour the beer in about half a jock at once. I made it this way because drinking is the main thing today, but I would have made it into a beer if I were going to eat the rice.

However, of course we don't drink unconscious or unrecognizable. It is our common lesson learned through past failures that adventurers should not drown in alcohol.

That said, it was before I met him that I learned that lesson. This guy and I have only been dating since I came to this city, so it's only been about six months. I've already forgotten to hang up, but as soon as I see him, I'm in a mood for it, and then this is how I go for a drink every once in a while.

I haven't had a fixed party yet, but this guy is part of a C-rank party that's pretty well known in this city. They say it will probably go up to B-rank in another six months or at the latest within a year. He's just affiliated with such an excellent party, and he's highly capable of himself. A versatile player (all-rounder) who performs cleverly from close combat to distance, hitting and putting on every negotiation because of its popularity. He's not the type to pull off as a leader, but he's a tough guy to get as a moodmaker. Other party members seem to be excellent, and I'm really jealous of the story.

Well, the most enviable thing is that you have a trustworthy companion like that.

"So, what's up?

For a while, I was tinkering with alcohol while talking about something unusual, but I asked him if it was a good time. If you want to talk, you'll talk, otherwise you'll just drink cheerfully, as usual.

But such care seemed useless. I just said I was waiting, so much so that I thought it was stupid to care. However, being able to talk easily in this way also means that it is not that serious. I listened to this guy laughing inside.

"- I see."

So I've been hearing about this guy's stupidity and dissatisfaction for a while, but the content is simply a women's issue. It is understandable to be jealous if the woman concerned is told that there is a shadow of another man, that if you go back from a request to swing for a few days, there is a man who has approached you suddenly before you know it, and the woman may not be more than full. I felt even worse because I have a girlfriend too.

... I felt that as soon as I heard the name of the woman I cared about, that emotion disappeared from me. I can also snort that I didn't try to mention the woman's name inside.

There's no pulse at all on this guy, and you shouldn't even be approaching him in the first place.

"Hey, Aria..."

This guy's thinker - no, you're just a woman I admire. There are many people, men and women alike, who admire her as a receptionist for the Lienz Adventurer Guild. Especially the younger adventurers.

You don't have to say beauty first. He seems to be twenty-one or two years old, but he looks like a teenager enough to keep him. It's basically faceless and doesn't put much emotion on the table, but that doesn't damage her charm. Because many have picked up their lives with her precise reminders and advice, and there is no reason for them to look faceless but have no feelings.

Besides, the story of an occasional temporary party ancient ginseng adventurer I attend says she is an amazing former C-rank adventurer with two names: 'Ice Witch'. It is the adventurer's story that C-rank but its strength goes into five fingers even in the Alliance.

Many of those ancient ginseng faces have known her since she was a newcomer, and after acknowledging her prowess, she sees them with the eyes of a daughter or sister, and even the younger adventurers and those slightly older than her, like me, call them "." with admiration and respect.

I do care about the man approaching Mr. Aria...

"Maybe you're talking about a rookie who's been in lately?

Yes, if they were Aria, it wasn't like I had no idea.

I think I saw the rookie the day he registered as an adventurer.

The guy came into the guild, seemingly unusual. I don't know what's funny, but it just seemed like fun.

I was in a bit of a quarrel with her, so the bug was in a bad place, but when I saw his pleasant face, I lost my mind about something. I must have remembered the old days a little and missed that I might have been like that when I first came to the guild, too.

I stopped and watched, but I decided to leave the guild on the occasion that he was headed to the reception with Aria. I was about to go home, and somehow I thought I'd buy a souvenir and go see her. I went to the florist to buy the flowers she liked while I was there for her.

The next time I saw him, it was the next day. I was just here in the evening looking for a good request before the guild got crowded.

As I was heading in front of the bulletin board, I caught the rookie I saw yesterday in the corner of my sight. Equipped with brand new armor and sword, it is quite like. I had just received my reward, so I had just signed up for Adventurer the day before and I had already fulfilled my first request. It would be a collection request anyway, but it's still a big deal yesterday today.

When I was a rookie, I remember sometimes it took me about three days to get used to it. Unless you're still lucky enough to find a place where the herbs are hardening and growing, you can't do it in a very day. Maybe he has' sampling 'skills.

and so on. I had made up with her within yesterday, and I congratulated the rookie on your smooth slip with probability.

Then two days later, I came back to the city of Lienz with a hock-face. I was out in a nearby village at a small request, but in the middle of it I encountered an unplanned prey - Mad Ant - and crusaded it.

These guys are basically warcraft acting in multiple ways, but they were alone when I found them. What do you call it? He's a troublesome guy with paralysis poison, but one can do it.

First, I insert a potion to cure the paralysis poison into my waist belt so that I can detoxify it immediately. Not unlikely to crack, but it's more important to be able to handle it quickly. That's not a problem as long as you're ready. The hard crust was not in the way, but I was never damaged, and I finished Mad Ant with a few shots.

Originally the worker type Mad Ant is not that strong of a warcraft if seen only by the ability of the vegetarian just because the hard crust and paralysis poison are troublesome. Apart from talking about this becoming a soldier type, if you say D-rank alone, you won't have a problem dealing with two or three at the same time, and even if you make it to the E-rank, one-on-one, you won't struggle that far.

But in fact, Mad Ant's hard crust is not compatible with many weapons such as spears and swords, which require high muscle strength or mace or other strike-based weapons to stabilise and deal damage, and if you are in a party for paralysis poison, it can still be a solo lifesaver.

Still, if you're a C-rank adventurer like us, you'll be fine with two or three of them as long as you have paralysis measures, but you're still a nasty opponent at risk.

But if you knock it down, it's ours. Mad Ant crusts can be sold for a very good price in the ranks, so it's going to be a little bit of a penny. You know I'm gonna look like a hockey, too, right?

After that, when I cleaned up my original request and came back to the city of Lienz, I was in a good mood and headed to the guild. And as soon as I arrived at the guild, I saw another example rookie, but things were different then usual.

I was just scratching my new armor the other day, and I was just talking to Aria at the reception with two big bags of inflated bread.

At that time, I didn't think the contents of the bag were collected or dropped. No matter how much scratchy armor makes you think you fought, you wouldn't think a rookie who's only been an adventurer for a few days got two big bags of material, would you?

But that was no way.

The newbie took one material out of the bag and showed it to Aria. Then rarely did she look upset and immediately took the rookie upstairs.

At that time, I couldn't believe what I saw, and watched as they climbed the stairs and headed upstairs.

The material he took out was Mad Ant's crust.

- Oh, I get it. Right. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it. It's impossible to deal with two large bags of material in a group, and it's impossible for a newcomer to become an adventurer to come back alive with Mad Ant and the group.

But this guy is a fact.

Well, I'm not asking you to believe me. Let's just keep talking.

The next day I overslept I headed to the guild a little before noon. As usual, I searched for a good request in front of the bulletin board, and when I casually glanced at the entrance, that rookie was just about to come in.

That's when my eyes met, but the rookie gave me a meeting and then headed to the reception. I was a little surprised. If the sight I saw the day before was true, it wouldn't surprise me if I was on track a little bit. Well, it's not bad to be polite. Since it's also nothing to watch very still after that, I've been looking at newcomers on the sidelines sometimes while confirming my request, and that's where it happened, "The Red Rosen Flower Incident," which you also know.

- So don't look like that. You said earlier like a rookie was cheating on Mr. Aria, but from what I've seen, I didn't think so. 'Cause you, have you ever seen Mr. Aria smile? And you're smiling so happy, right? First of all, the fundamentals are wrong. There's no way that Aria could fool you.

- Oh, okay, okay. If you say that, make sure with your own eyes. You did say you'd be a mentor at the next beginner's course, didn't you? Wouldn't that be a good chance to tell?

This is how I ended up talking about you, the rumored rookie. We'll be together if we talk any more, and there's very little left to talk about. After that I changed the subject and kept drinking for a while and ended up just fine.

He couldn't seem to believe what I said, but still left with a slightly neat face. You'll find out for yourself later.

I didn't tell him, but after witnessing the "Red Rosen Flower Incident," I was summoned by Mr. Greg and asked about the detached Mad Ant I had reported the day before. While we were talking, I noticed there was something about yesterday's rookie.

When I finished talking, I was asked to investigate Mad Ant. They were actually going to send anything as a D-rank request, but they caught my eye yesterday that I brought in Mad Ant material just fine.

Of course, Greg explained to me some circumstances, dangers, etc.

A group of Mad Ants was discovered in the nearby woods, but soon everything, including the Queen, was crusaded by an adventurer. Therefore, it seems that there is no danger already, but just in case there are no remnants of the party, I wanted you to investigate.

Mr. Greg didn't reveal any information about the adventurer, but I knew exactly who it was without being told who it was. But I didn't expect to defeat even the group that included Queen. To my surprise, I'm a little frightened, if you're a guy with knowledge of Mad Ant, you'll understand.

It may have an extra compatible means of attack, but it's still too substandard. Maybe even before I became an adventurer, I was hunting warcraft in some way, and that's for some special reason, such as high levels, or having special skills.

There are other things that concern me, but I can't help thinking about them any more. It's just curiosity, and if you don't ask him directly, you don't know. And it goes against the adventurer's fashion of not prying into the skills and circumstances of others without darkness.

In the end, I got a request on the spot, and when I got back from a two-day investigation today, I met this guy who seemed upset.

There are a number of other ongoing inquiries that I reported this time, and they're considering a second investigation once those reports have been collected. But whether or not I'm going to be involved in that in the future is another story.

Either way, I'm not gonna brag about this. In fact, this is the first time I've talked to anyone about a rookie. I haven't talked about the part about the request I received from Mr. Gregg once, so there won't be any problems with this.

Besides, what I told him this time, if it worked out, that rookie would have more allies. For newcomers who are going to go up more and more, it's better to have more allies.

You don't have to tell me. He might have noticed what a rookie looks like, but, well, as a friend, I wanted to give him some advance advice. At least, that rookie is not a good guy to turn to enemies without darkness.

But when I think about it again, I wonder why I put my shoulder in that newbie so far. But maybe when the rookie first came into the guild, he already liked it when he saw that smile. I felt something strange about seeing you at a good time afterwards.

I just don't think I can party with you, the rookie, or get involved in anything in the future. I know my strengths best. Let me back you up in the shadows.

- I'm just gonna try again.

I didn't think it was a bad idea to quit being an adventurer and be a soldier in this city, but I was willing to go up there again. I watched the newbie smile and it was wasting me being in some halfway state right now.

She would also support this decision because the cause of the fight with her was also due to my impulse to lose my motivation. Even if one day I ever become a soldier in this city, that's after everything I've done as an adventurer.

Occasionally the guys who partie on an ad hoc basis had asked me to formally partie, but I'm going to take this opportunity seriously.

"I won't lose, rookie."

My name is Dennis. I remember dreams and hopes when I was new, I'm a C-rank adventurer.
