Ron woke up in his hotel bed.
I got up and went to the window. I opened the window and saw that it was drizzling outside.
He tilted his head back slightly, letting the fine rain patter on his face, and murmured, "I, burdened with sins, am just right for the rain to wash away."
Yes, an elegant yet dashing sense of destiny.
Unfortunately, there was no one watching.
Feeling bored, he closed the window, donned his adventurer's gear, and went downstairs.
Good morning, Mr. Victor.
Good morning, Miss Hel.
Ron greeted the person at the counter politely and then ordered a standard breakfast.
"Okay, please wait a moment."
Hel is the hotel owner's daughter, thirteen years old, a smart and capable girl.
Ron found an empty table and sat down. Soon, Hull brought him breakfast.
"Mr. Victor, someone from the Adventurers' Guild just came by and asked you to visit them sometime soon," the young girl relayed back to the counter.
After saying that, she added, "They were very polite when they asked me to pass on the message, so it shouldn't be a bad thing."
"OK, thanks."
Ron responded casually, then leisurely enjoyed his still-steaming breakfast.
The Adventurers' Guild acted faster than he expected, so it seemed his promotion to Silver-rank Adventurer was secure.
Ron was pondering what skills he should learn at the Adventurers' Guild when he suddenly felt an uncomfortable gaze upon him.
He turned his head and saw a person wearing a white dog mask standing at the entrance of the hotel, staring intently at him.
That extremely aggressive gaze gave Ron a pleasant feeling of having his underwear exposed.
He put down the wooden spoon and looked the other person up and down.
The other person was wearing a simple coarse linen shirt on the upper body and a tattered skirt that only covered half of their thighs on the lower body. Around their neck was a very conspicuous flower wreath.
Although the other person had completely changed his clothes, Ron still recognized him as the one who had bumped into him at the hotel entrance yesterday.
That person from the Kingdom of Nieus, wearing the shackles of slavery.
Ron stood up, intending to invite the other person to sit down and have breakfast together.
However, as soon as the other person saw him stand up, they immediately turned around and ran away.
When Ron arrived at the door, there was no one left on the street.
baffling.
Back at the inn, after finishing the rest of his breakfast, he went to the Adventurers' Guild.
As soon as he entered the Adventurers' Hall, someone recognized him immediately.
"He is the one who exposed the demons' conspiracy and rescued Princess Karina last night."
"So he really is a Black Iron-level adventurer."
The events of last night's banquet have already spread throughout the Adventurers' Guild, and everyone admires his courage.
If it were them, they certainly wouldn't have acted as decisively as Ron, daring to openly kill a baron based solely on the demons' one-sided account.
It was precisely because of his decisiveness that the guests at the banquet believed him.
Otherwise, Princess Karina would have been in grave danger last night.
Upon learning that the Blackblade Warrior had arrived at the Adventurers' Guild last night, the head of the Kassel Adventurers' Guild immediately appeared and led Ron to the meeting room.
"Mr. Victor, in recognition of your heroic actions last night in rescuing Princess Karina from the demons' plot, the Adventurers' Guild and Earl Lawrence have unanimously decided to promote you to Silver-rank Adventurer."
"Congratulations, Mr. Victor."
The leader of the Adventurers' Guild took out a silver badge.
He removed the black iron badge from Ron's shoulder and personally pinned the silver badge on Ron's head.
"Thank you, it's what I should do," Ron said calmly.
The adventurer leader nodded in satisfaction, then took out three cards and laid them out on the table: "According to the rules of the Adventurers' Guild, Silver-level adventurers can learn one third-tier magic or martial art for free. This is the teacher I can currently find for you."
Chapter 30 I want both
Ron looked at the three cards on the table, each containing the resume of one of the three teachers.
Aside from some members of the Adventurers' Guild, the Adventurers' Guild also hires some mages and martial artists. New adventurers who complete tasks and exchange their merits for magic and martial arts skills, or who advance to the Silver rank, are mostly taught by these teachers.
Perhaps inspired by his use of a longsword in combat, two of the three teachers provided to him by the Adventurers' Guild were martial artists.
One is skilled in attack speed-based martial arts, and the other is skilled in defensive martial arts.
Ron didn't hesitate much and chose the former.
The best defense is to take the initiative; he has no interest in being passively attacked.
Seeing Ron press his fingertip on a piece of cardboard, the head of the Adventurers' Guild smiled and said, "Mr. Wim is a very patient and responsible person. Many of his students have become Silver-level adventurers. I believe that under Mr. Wim's guidance, you will definitely become an outstanding adventurer."
As he spoke, he was about to put away the remaining two cards.
"Wait a moment."
Ron reached out his other hand and placed it on the third teacher's card.
He was a magic teacher who was skilled in water-based magic, which could be used for both offense and defense.
"Oh? You also have insights into magic?" the Adventurers' Guild leader asked curiously.
“Yes,” Ron nodded, “In fact, my magical talent is better than my physical talent.”
"I see," the Adventurers' Guild leader said with a smile, his hands clasped together and elbows resting on the table. "So, what's your choice...?"
Ron laughed and said, "Perhaps I have the talent to learn two of them."
Upon hearing this, the leader of the Adventurers' Guild couldn't help but chuckle: "How greedy."
Since the other party did not directly refuse, Ron knew there was room for negotiation. He humbly said, "The weak should seize every opportunity to become stronger."
"That's true," the leader of the Adventurers' Guild chuckled, "Since the establishment of the Adventurers' Guild, all Silver-level adventurers have only been able to learn one Tier 3 spell for free. If they want to learn more Tier 3 spells, they can only earn merit points by completing quests."
“Here’s the thing,” Ron said, picking up the card that taught martial arts techniques. “This was given to me for free by the guild when I was promoted to Silver-rank adventurer.”
Then he picked up the card for learning magic: "This is what I got for the merits I gained last night in killing a demon and rescuing Princess Karina."
Ron's argument was so logical and well-founded that the Adventurers' Guild leader was unable to refute it for a moment.
Ron saved Karina, and in a way, he saved the kingdom of Orantia.
For such a great achievement, the Adventurers' Guild only promoted him to Silver-rank Adventurer, which is actually a bit of a perfunctory gesture.
However, there are strength requirements for becoming a Steel-level adventurer, and they couldn't directly upgrade Ron to Steel-level.
Now that Ron is only asking for one more tier-three skill that isn't particularly rare, it would be unreasonable for the Adventurers' Guild to be stingy.
“Your actions last night were indeed courageous, preventing the worst from happening. I can make an exception for you,” the Adventurers’ Guild leader compromised.
"The addresses of both teachers are written here; you can go anytime," he said, standing up and taking out two letters of introduction.
"Thank you." Ron stood up and took the letter of introduction.
"By the way, you'd better not leave Kassel anytime soon."
"why?"
"The demons who attacked Princess Karina may still be lingering near Kassel, and the events of last night are being widely discussed in Kassel. The demons have probably already set their sights on you."
"Thank you, I will be careful."
After leaving the Adventurers' Guild, Ron went directly to visit Mr. Wim.
Time is money.
As for the Adventurers' Guild leader's reminder, there's absolutely no need to pay attention to it.
Because the Great Demon Baal would never come looking for him for the sake of Kassel and his group of abandoned pawns.
Let's put it this way: if these Shadow Demons really kill Princess Kaelina, even if the Kingdom of Orantia lets them go, the demons won't.
Therefore, to avoid being exposed, Baal had already slipped back to the demon territory after his 'failed' sneak attack.
……
Wim is a retired mercenary, 62 years old this year. He bought a house in Kassel with the money he earned as a mercenary and is enjoying his retirement.
When Ron visited, Mr. Wim's door was open.
Looking inside, the first thing you see are two people wearing the Adventurers' Guild's silver badge on their shoulders, and then you see an old man leaning against the stair railing with a haggard face.
"Mr. Wim, please rest assured, we will definitely find your granddaughter and bring her back safely."
Ron only heard one sentence at the door before two adventurers came out.
"Wait a minute, buddy."
Ron stopped the two of them.
The two looked at Ron with suspicion.
“I’m here to learn martial arts from Mr. Wim,” Ron said, pointing to the brand-new silver badge on his shoulder.
The two men understood each other, glanced into the room, and then whispered, "Mr. Wim is currently in a very unstable emotional state. You should come back another day."
"What happened?" Ron asked in a low voice.
The two sighed and said, "Many children have gone missing in Kassel recently, including Mr. Wim's granddaughter."
"The two of us have been investigating this matter for the past few days."
"Any leads?" Ron asked.
The two shook their heads: "The timing and location of the other party's attacks are completely unpredictable, and the missing children have no common characteristics. That damned bastard seems to grab any child he can find."
"Yesterday we finally spotted a suspicious person, but he got away."
