My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero’s

Happy Wednesday!

Here is the new chapter, enjoy.

ED: Ignite

Authors Note:

Akira and Amelia, Yorus point of view may occasionally change during the story.

Wait a minute!

Amelia said that as she grabbed Kurous hand.

Kurou let out a sigh and stopped.

What business do you have with me, elven princess.

Amelia panted, trying to catch her breath.

He had a gaze that seemed to pin the other party down. This was not something a normal blacksmith would have.

I wanted to make sure.

Amelia blurted that out with her eyes casted downward, leaving Kurou quite puzzled.

The blade of Yatonokami in Kurous hand was wrapped in a white cloth and the contrast between the black and the white was eye-catching.

If Im not mistaken, you are one of the heroes from the previous generations hero-samas party.

The previous generations heros party failed to subjugate the demon king, and only the hero and the beastman representative returned.

The human and the elf died a little while later, something along those lines.

Kurous eyes sharpened.

So?

Enduring Kurous cold gaze, Amelia raised her head and looked directly into Kurous eyes.

I want you to tell me about the battle.

After Amelia left, Yoru got up from his bed.

Master-dono, is it ok to not chase after her?

I put the bladeless Yatonokami and its black sheath in a bag.

Like this, I wouldnt have to worry about it being stolen, and its so secure that it wouldnt be pickpocketed off of me.

Maa, even if it was, as long as there was no blade, it had no value.

Amelia has her own thoughts. Besides, Amelia wont do anything thats disadvantageous to us.

I counted the number of hidden weapons I had while checking their sharpness before putting them away.

Yoru changed into a smaller size and jumped onto my shoulder.

A piece of paper fell into my hands.

Lets take care of our own business. so, Yoru will go with Amelia.

Yoru, who had fully intended on accompanying me, slumped over my shoulder in disappointment.

Master-dono, was this not the start of an adventure for the master and familiar?

I grabbed Yoru by the scruff and held him up to eye level.

I realized this quite recently, but it seems that when hes a cat, he would be powerless when this was done to him, just like a regular cat.

However, when he was in the form of a dragon, he had a dragons wrath, among other things.

We will always be connected no matter where we are, but its not the same for Amelia. Besides, we will be able to destroy all the monsters when we enter the beastmens dungeon. Luckily, the dungeon is in this town.

Yoru pouted.

It seems that he understood what I was trying to say.

Stay with Amelia until shes found what shes looking for. Ive felt somewhat uneasy ever since we entered this continent. Also, tell her to come back before dinner.

Those golden eyes silently watched me for a time before suddenly closing.

As you wish, Master-dono.

I let Yoru down onto the floor, and left the inn.

I walked towards the Adventurer Guild while Yoru followed Amelias scent in the opposite direction.

Since Amelia and Yoru were not with me, no one noticed me.

It seems like I fail to stand out at all without them, which is quite sad now that I think about it.

Oh well, its better that they dont notice me, it would be troublesome otherwise.

Unfortunately, I dont remember where the Adventurer Guild was, but after following the armor-clad adventurers, I arrived before I knew it.

Was this also thanks to the special skill Fortune?

It was different from when I came to the Adventurer Guild with Linga. The bar was bustling, and there was a large crowd of adventurers gathered in front of the wall of color-coded requests.

The whole place reeked of alcohol.

Excuse me, where do I go to register?

I called out as politely as possible to the guild staff member named Mile who brought drinks over when I first came here.

Ah, you can register here.

The fact that he didnt even react when he saw me meant that he did not recognize me.

Maa, this should be a good thing.

Im an assassin after all, so its good that people dont notice me.

However, I was personally introduced to him by Guildmaster Linga of all people.

That alone should have at least made a strong impression and yetdespite this, he still didnt recognize me.

As a person, to be forgotten was quite depressing.

No Im an assassin, this is good.. think of the positives damn it!

Completely unaware of the inner turmoil I was experiencing, Mile held out a piece of paper and a stick that seemed to be a pen as he called out to me.

Do you know how to write? Though I can write on your behalf as well.

No, its fine. Is it ok if I just put down my name, occupation, and race?

After seeing Mile nod, I filled in the necessary information on that paper.

well then, with this, the registration is complete. This is the dog tag of the beginner rank, the grey rank. This also serves as your ID as well, so please wear it around your neck at all times so that you dont lose it.

I stuck my grey ID info tag onto the chain Mile provided and hung the chain on my neck.

How do I raise my rank quickly?

It seems that in this town, entering the dungeon depended on ones rank, one couldnt enter unless one was yellow-ranked, at least.

Right now, Im grey, next is blue, and then its yellow after that, so I need to rank up twice.

Hmm, I guess youre interested in entering the dungeon, huh? Youre probably not aware, but this towns dungeon isnt as straightforward as the humans dungeon or the elven dungeon. In the human dungeon, monsters are weak to magic attacks while in the elven dungeon, monsters are weak to physical attacks. Youll find no clear advantages using either physical or magic attacks in this towns dungeon, its a completely different beast you know?

Hmm, I guess that would explain how growth skills are leveled up.

However, people generally dont have a wide range of attacks, so focusing on the dungeon where ones attacks were more effective would probably be the better option.

Its fine. Although I may look like this, Im confident in my skills.

After staring at me for some time, Mile gave a deep sigh.

Just how many novice adventurers who said as much lost their lives on their first mission. For now, I will tell you about the rules and etiquette of this Adventurer Guild, so please listen. We will talk about it later.

I wanted to raise my rank quickly and enter the dungeon, but I nodded, reluctantly.
