Even though I’ve come to understand this world to a certain extent thanks to Daijiro’s book, I felt that it was best if I gained an understanding myself.
Of course, it’s not that I don’t trust the book, but the book did not touch upon the tax required to enter the town, nor anything about the crystal ball that detects a person’s job and also nothing about the skills for the Jobless occupation.
It’s not the first time I personally experience and observe the situation for myself. It’s similar to how when I was trying to find a job, I not only read articles on the overview of the company but I actually also requested to tour the factories or facilities in my own private time before tackling the interview.
Although, I was dropped due to failing the written test before I had the chance to enter the interview for that particular automotive company.
The place that comes to mind when looking for a place to gather information would be the tavern … but I am not good with liquor.
Even though I’ve already reached 20 years old and was of legal age to drink, youngsters nowadays steer away from alcohol so it’s no longer 20 years old = drinker.
I understood that I would not be at ease with the tavern atmosphere, so for the purpose of information gathering, the Adventurers Guild would be the best choice.
Thus, in line with my original intent, I aimed for the Adventurers Guild.
Blue-roofed building, sword and shield signboard, I immediately saw the place I was heading for.
It was a wooden bungalow. The door was ajar and there were many hefty men around. No, there were pretty Oneesans inside as well.
… So anxious.
I wonder … I felt that in an Adventurers Guild like that, a guy like me would 9 cases out of 10 be entangled in some sticky situation.
But … but there’s a lot of people around so it should be fine … yup.
It’s not like I’ll be brazenly dragged into a fight in broad daylight.
Why am I acting so fainthearted, this is trivial compared to the nervousness I feel when I open the doors to an interview.
I put on my business smile and entered the Adventurers Guild.
“Excuse me!”
I greeted loudly. I immediately regretted it.
… Shit! I unknowingly followed my habit for interviews.
