In Mr. Marta's own room, discussing the background to this raid and future responses, the door to the room suddenly opened and one girl jumped in.

"Father! Is it true you were attacked!

"Minnea, you have a visitor."

The girl who came into the room seems to be named Minnea. He jumps at Marta sitting opposite me and buries his face in his big tummy.

My father was worried and I didn't seem to notice at all. "What?" he answered with his face buried, slowly turning here - he cried.

This Kevlar mask, used by Hong Kong and Bolivian special forces, but with only an eye hole in the black side, is very intimidating. For a girl who jumped in worried about her father, she might have been a little too irritating.

Now, what am I going to do with this...... should I take the mask, but when a young child remembers his face, I have trouble getting the name of the shaft when I meet him as Schwartz.

Marta and I were in contact, surrounded by an atmosphere of what we would do with each other - but the situation would improve with the entry of new people.

"Minnea, you mustn't disturb your father. Welcome home, you guys. Is this Mr. Shaft? I'm Marida, Malta's wife. Thank you for protecting Malta and our Chamber of Commerce employees"

Marida, who came into the room, is a long-haired, skinny woman with the same chestnut hair as Minnea, probably in her mid-20s, a costume reminiscent of a woman working in blue trousers on a white blouse.

Minnea also has long chestnut hair, but she wears a skirt with a light watery fluffy soft look, similar to a chiffon dress, and a dress with a sleeveless combination.

"No, that's the job this time. I'd rather apologize for not being able to protect two carriages."

"What do you say, shaft! All you have to do is buy a wagon or something, and you've got a load for it, and you can't replace your life, including your employees."

"Marta, it's time for Master Shaft to stop. Shafts are fine, and your wife can call you Mr. Marida?

"I'm fine with Marida, too. We have heard that Mr Shaft has also taught us the seeds of a good money-making story. While you're in Wang Capital, you can spend this mansion as your home."

The schedule for this merchant convoy escort is to stay for two days in the Wang capital and leave for the castle city of Barga on the morning of the third day. The first plan was to take an inn for a stroll in the Wang capital, and to the point of making an ID in the guild, but at the strong invitation of the Maltese, he was to spend two days in the Maltese mansion as he was.

In addition to Marida, he discussed the forthcoming escort with Marta and stayed at the mansion, while the Maltese and Minneau escorts did the same. Since Minnea is still in this room, she did not make any remarks to make the bandits smell the possibility of being targeted again, but Ms. Marida immediately seemed to understand.

Naturally, the Marida Chamber of Commerce also employs a dedicated escort on a permanent basis. However, the focus was on escorting carriages and warehouses, and Mr. Malta was not accompanied by personal escorts.

During this Merchant Corps escort, they decided to hire a trusted escort, so I'm escorting them until they decide on that new escort.

During the discussion, I corrected Marta's instructions several times, and by the time I had made up my mind, I had managed to get her back to the tone that I could attach as a friend. As far as I'm concerned, it's hard to say how old he is, but I want you to treat him as an older friend.

During that discussion, Minnea sat quietly between the Maltese couple, but she seemed to be concerned about my mask and turned her gaze over and over again with the flirtatious. But whenever the eyes and eyes in the back of the black side met, I was obviously distracted... hated?

After breakfast at the Maltese mansion and a light hibernation in the guest room, Mr. Malta and I had come to the General Guild of the Wang Capital.

The general guild of the Wang Capital becomes precisely the headquarters of the general guild, where the headquarters of each vocational guild is assembled. Me and Mr. Malta are here for one of those professional guilds, the Mercenary Guild.

To hire Marta as a bodyguard, I decided to make Shaft's ID in this guild. Even when it comes to mercenary guilds, the main job is not to march into war. There are several jobs in mercenary guilds, roughly divided, such as driving and servicing carriages and ships. Private knighthood of lords everywhere. A unit in the inter-state war. Merchants and aristocrats' perimeter protection. And it's the back job.

I have no trouble registering the shaft as the same adventurer as Schwartz, and I can't make anything by joining a production artisan's guild. I can't even hunt people in nature. The Merchant Guild thought a little, but it was visible that it would be more efficient to do a lot of things with Mr. Malta.

That's what's left of it, and it's convenient to think about it in this escort request.

And, I've come to register as a mercenary in a mild way, but I've got a bit of a problem.

"Practical exam?

"Yes, the first thing mercenaries want is combat power. Various other abilities are required, such as expertise and medical technology, but above all, mercenaries who cannot fight cannot be introduced to their clients. For this reason, when registering your Alliance Card, we will confirm your combat skills here."

"What is that practical exam like?

"There is a practical testing ground behind our hotel, you will have a mock fight with the examiner there"

"What if I let the examiner get hurt?

"Don't worry, we have a medical team. Please note, however, that if the examiner is injured badly enough to lead to his death, he will call the Wang Metropolitan Guard."

Isn't Mercenary Guild registration a crystal...... what should we do, glance at the exam just with a special electromagnetic alarm stick without using a firearm? No, still, what if it falls...

"The practical exam will be ready soon, okay?

"Yeah, yeah, I'm fine"

The receptionist took me to the back of the mercenary regiment headquarters where the mercenary guild was located. It was a space like a smaller athletic field, and in the centre of it awaited men and women who looked like guild staff, supposedly this time examiners.

"Is that the guy who wants to register this time? I'm guessing you're checking under that black surface, huh?

The man is checking with the receptionist if he wants to rendezvous with men and women.

I have an ID from the Marida Chamber of Commerce.

"Marida Chamber of Commerce? Is it true, that's where you're covering for this dubious guy with the black side?

"Register with the Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce."

"Heh, I don't get any back work there, I thought it was a legitimate chamber of commerce, but a policy shift?

"I'm not supposed to know that. Just start the exam."

I was measuring the strength of this examiner while listening to the receptionist transfer and the examiner's interaction a little further away.

I was going to go with just a special electromagnetic stick for a simple practical exam, but the signs I feel from this guy resemble Malinda and Lu from Camellia (Southern Ka), and Reinell from Hegemon Flower (Rafflesia). Maybe this man is strong.

"Ooh, you've waited. I'm Siegfried, a former Rank A Adventurer and now a Mercenary Guild employee."

"Shaft."

Former Rank A... You're not the one who can do it cluelessly. Siegfried is a man in his late 30s with slightly dripping eyes and short brown hair running back. Guild staff have a lot of clean images, but this guy grows a barren mustache and a rough outfit called trousers on a good shirt.

"You don't have to beat me, just check your moves. Don't worry, even if you get hurt, the staff over there will cure you. You can come any time you want."

With that said, Siegfried gently placed the wooden sword in his hand with his right hand, and the practical exam began.

I pull the special electromagnetic stick out of the lower back holder with my left hand and gently shake it to dilate. I see the stick, which was shrunk to about 30cm, stretched twice as far as I could just shake it, and Siegfried smiles with a face like I saw an interesting toy.

Me and Siegfried are about 10 meters away. Walking that distance and shrinking, a seemingly indefensible advance, I captured Siegfried's entire body without missing a scratch of movement and was ready to respond as soon as the other moved.

As soon as the distance is about 5 m, slide jump forward, gain that momentum, and shake your left arm with the baton up from the bottom right to the top left.

Siegfried pointed the tip of the wooden sword down and took my cut up in the belly of the sword. But while each other's one-handed offense, my gesture is exerted by the power suit over the constant, plus the momentum in the slide jump, and I bounced Siegfried's hand up with every wooden sword.

"Ho!

Siegfried flies backwards to be pushed by me, and the distance opens up again. Let's start over. Now put the wooden sword in your hands.

I put my right hand in the overcoat, pulled Five-seveN out of the shoulder holster, aligned my instantly displayed crosshair to Siegfried's right knee, and fired two triggers in a row.

The receptionist and guild clerk woman who was watching the practical exams reacted to the bursting sound ringing on the athletic field and shook her shoulders, but I kept Five-seveN standing with my right hand, illuminating stars and crosshair to Siegfried's head.

"Did you get enough of this?

"Ha, ha, what is this, a magic attack? I didn't hear the devil's words..."

"Let's stop the extra prying, if we can't keep the escort request, how do we take responsibility?"

Siegfried was kneeling on the spot and holding down his right knee wet with blood with both hands. Like these adventurers, you mean not screaming in pain is just ex-A rank?

"Pfft, fine - pass. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. It hurts."

"Ha, ha."

To Siegfried's call, a woman from the Alliance staff is rushing over to perform healing magic. I returned Five-seveN to the shoulder holster and walked towards the receptionist.

"Pass, yes, ask for the guild card"

"Ha, ha!

Return with the receptionist to the Mercenary Corps headquarters building and receive your guild card and your purpose ends today. Mr. Marta seemed to have finished making the request, too, and he waited for me in the waiting space. Now there's nothing we can do for the overall guild, we're back at the Marida Chamber of Commerce headquarters.
