Shirou and Alice looked at each other blankly, completely at a loss.
The two then realized that Ragnarok had gradually earned the nickname "Deadend" because of the extreme panic he had caused in various towns and cities.
Essentially, this also reflects the exclusion of the Spelud people.
Just as Shirou and Alice were at a loss for words, the doors of the Adventurers' Guild came into view.
"Once we go inside, Rajirud, try your best to disguise yourself as a human."
Shirou spoke up quietly, "Although your appearance is quite distinctive, it wouldn't be a problem to say you're human. As for your identities, let's say we're the two of us bodyguards protecting Miss Alice, while Alice is a proud noblewoman who's fascinated by adventurers."
Shirou spoke quietly, proposing the next disguise.
In fact, his pretense was almost indistinguishable from the truth.
This was also to prevent Rachel Rudd and Alice from being unable to portray false identities; it was better to let them play themselves.
It's worth mentioning that when Shirou passed by the stall, he bought Alice a hood with ears, which not only covered Alice's long red hair but also allowed her to disguise herself as a beastman.
Although it is not clear at present whether humans will face discrimination in the Demon Continent, considering the past war between humans and demons, it is hard to guarantee that there are no demons who still harbor resentment towards humans in private.
In that case, disguising oneself as a beastman or even a demon is undoubtedly the least attention-grabbing tactic.
Shirou himself doesn't need to pretend anymore, because he is confident in his own strength and believes he can handle any situation.
Regarding the animal ear hood, Shirou originally thought that Alice would resist, after all, she had been quite dissatisfied when she dressed up as a cat-eared maid to apologize to him back then. However, to his surprise, Alice showed an excited expression after seeing what Shirou gave her.
Is this a gift for me?
"Forget it, guess it."
"Great!"
Seeing Alice happily accept the gift, Shirou felt a little uneasy.
But he didn't bother to care too much, silently letting Rijrud and Alice further understand their upcoming situation, and that they should never attract too much attention in the Adventurers' Guild.
Shirou had no worries about himself, or even about Rachel Rudd.
Only Alice.
He absolutely did not want Alice to be in danger.
……
The Adventurers' Guild in the afternoon.
This is a place where many powerful people gather.
People who are confident in their physical abilities and their magical skills use swords, axes, wands, or even their fists.
There are people who boast that they are better than everyone else, and there are people who secretly laugh at such people. There are swordsmen in armor and magicians in light equipment.
Men who look like pigs, women with the lower body of snakes; men with wings, women with horse hooves... all sorts of races gather here, noisy and crowded.
This is the Adventurers' Guild of the Demon Continent.
Suddenly, the doors of the Adventurers' Guild were opened.
A red-haired boy and a tall, black-haired man walked in from outside. The boy had a sharp longsword hanging at his waist, and his eyes looked frank and sincere. The tall man carried a trident on his back, and his expression was sharp, giving people a terrifying sense of authority without anger, as if he were a butcher whose hands were stained with countless blood.
Behind them, a hooded girl who appeared to be of beast race followed slowly, but in a sense, she seemed to be receiving protection from the two.
Because the trio was an entirely unremarkable group, their arrival went unnoticed by anyone.
Seeing that no one around him reacted, Shirou breathed a slight sigh of relief. When he first arrived in the Demon Continent, his biggest worry was attracting the attention of dangerous individuals.
Since none of the demons seem to find their appearance unusual, it means that at least the first step has been completed.
It wasn't until he joined the Adventurers' Guild that Shirou truly realized he had entered another world.
Because the Rijerud and even the Migrud tribes we encountered before all had human appearances, and could even be said to be exactly the same as humans.
But the Adventurers' Guild is full of genuine demons; not a single one of them looks human.
Since it was his first time in such a place, Shirou was affected by the obvious sense of strangeness and was somewhat hesitant and reserved.
But he soon discovered that Alice's condition was more serious than his own; she even clutched at his clothes because of her fear of the demons.
Shirou then patted Alice's head comfortingly before turning and walking toward the guild counter.
Because it was a counter belonging to the demon race, the counter was much taller than one could have imagined.
Shirou had to stand on tiptoe to be able to talk to him.
"Um, can we register as adventurers now?"
Shirou had heard Paul talk about adventurers before. The first step to becoming an adventurer is to register with the Adventurers' Guild and obtain an Adventurer's Card before one can call oneself an adventurer.
Upon hearing Shirou's question, the demon female employee with three breasts displayed a normal expression and answered crisply, "Yes, you all wish to register as adventurers... right?"
"Yes."
"Then, please fill out this form."
The demon employee handed over three sheets of paper and a sharpened, thin charcoal pencil.
Shirou was slightly taken aback, not expecting that the barren Demon Continent would actually have paper and pen.
You should know that when he was in Buena village, he used that pen very carefully for a long time and couldn't bear to replace it.
Of course, this has nothing to do with the Demon Continent. Rather, it is the Adventurers' Guild itself that is a powerful organization, capable of exerting such a huge influence even on the Demon Continent.
Shirou quickly read through the various descriptions of adventurers and realized that adventurers not only enjoy rights but also have obligations, and even have to complete a sufficient number of tasks in order to be promoted.
Only after being promoted can one accept higher-level commissions.
They are roughly divided into SS, S, A, B, C, D, and F grades.
When you first become an adventurer, you can only be the lowest rank, F.
"Alice, if you can't write it, I can help you write it."
Shirou still remembers the time when Alice couldn't even write her own name.
But Alice shook her head and said, "No, I'll write it myself."
After experiencing the kidnapping incident and being rescued by Shirou in his Heroic Spirit Emiya form, Iris worked hard and at least learned to write her own name and some basic characters.
Because the Adventurers' Guild is a global organization, login is possible regardless of race or language.
"After you finish writing, please put your hand on this."
"Like this?"
Following the female employee's instructions, Shirou quickly noticed a long list of personal information on the form in front of him—Name: Shirou Grellard. Occupation: Swordsman. Rank: F.
As a faint magical imprint appeared, Shirou's Adventurer Card was completed.
All of this was accomplished by the card itself.
"This is your adventurer card, please accept it."
Shirou took the adventurer card, quite surprised.
What surprised him most was the design of the adventurer card, which seemed to be engraved with a simple self-charging magic circle, allowing him to replenish his magic power without using magic stones.
Even Shirou didn't master this technology, which is why he couldn't create a real Avalon.
Shirou even considered disassembling the adventurer cards for research, but such an act was too inappropriate and obviously should not be done casually.
Shirou could only suppress his impulse, realizing that he might be able to go to the Adventurers' Guild headquarters in the future to find the answer to the self-charging magic circle.
Next, both Rijerud and Alice completed the registration of their adventurer cards.
Once the registration information is recorded, it cannot be modified and will not disappear until death.
This is the significance of the identity management system.
After completing all of this, Shirou and the others finally became true adventurers.
Chapter 186 Beating up the demons in the guild! All of you, come at me together!
After registering with the Adventurers' Guild and becoming official adventurers, Shirou and the others were about to leave when they heard the clerk suddenly speak:
"By the way, would you like to log into the team at the same time?"
"Login team?"
Upon hearing what the other person said, Shirou recalled that adventurers usually acted in small teams, so naturally the first thing he needed to do was to form a team.
Just like Paul, Senis once established a team called "Black Wolf Fang" when she was young. That team was even an S-rank legendary team, and it still has a resounding name among adventurers on the continent.
Having decided to act as an adventurer, earn travel expenses, and even expand his reputation so that his lost family members can find him, Shirou naturally wants to build a team.
Most importantly, the team's name should ideally be one that allows familiar people to recognize them at a glance, knowing that they are the team members.
"So, what is the team name you would like to use?"
While Shirou was deep in thought, the teller kindly asked him a question.
Shirou hesitated for a moment, then quietly said, "Let's call him 'Black Wolf II'."
Shirou ultimately chose a name close to "Black Wolf Fang" as the team's name. This way, Paul, Senis, and the others would immediately realize that the team might have been formed by him, without causing an overreaction from others who might target him or Alice.
After all, most people wouldn't react excessively to a name as common in the Demon Continent as "Black Wolf II," but as long as Paul and his acquaintances were present, they would be able to understand the meaning behind the name.
Moreover, there is indeed nothing wrong with this name, after all, Kyrie Irwin is also a member of the Black Wolf Fang, and Alice is considered her junior.
"Understood. Then please hand over the Adventurer Card to me for now."
The clerk temporarily took away all the adventurer cards from Shirou and the others, and returned shortly afterward. "Here, please confirm that this is correct."
Shirou glanced at the card and noticed the words "[Black Wolf II (F)]" on it.
F undoubtedly refers to the current level of Shirou and his team.
"Login process is now complete. Thank you for your hard work."
"Ok."
"To accept a commission, please first go to the notice board over there and take the commission form, and then go to the counter."
"Notice board..."
Upon hearing the clerk's words, Shirou followed the clerk's finger and quickly spotted a huge notice board.
A group of adventurers with obviously malicious smiles were gathered around the notice board.
The atmosphere on the Demon Continent is far worse than that on the Central Continent. It is full of ferocious lone wolves, and it is rare to encounter any kind-hearted people.
Shirou naturally paid close attention to the people around him.
However, Shirou wasn't too panicked. He believed that with his and Rigel's strength, they were capable of resolving all the troubles. Not to mention unscrupulous adventurers, even if they encountered some vicious villains, he was absolutely confident that he could solve all the problems.
"Ok?"
And it seems that whatever comes to mind comes to mind.
As Shirou was about to approach the notice board, suddenly a foot blocked his path.
The owner of that foot was a truly arrogant fellow. He was a blue frog with only black spots, his cheeks puffed out, revealing an expression of suppressing laughter, and his foot stretched straight forward.
This was clearly a pure prank.
The frog demons seem to think that Shirou, this seemingly young human boy, is easy to bully, so they deliberately want to trip him up and then laugh at him.
Shirou naturally didn't care about such trivial matters. He calmly stepped forward and passed the other person.
His reaction did not deter the other party; instead, it made the surrounding demons look down on him even more, thinking he was a coward who dared not resist, and their mocking expressions became more and more obvious.
Shirou didn't care about these gazes or other people's opinions, and silently continued to move forward.
However, Alice, who was behind him, was clearly unaware of the situation around her.
Although she noticed the frog man's movements, she didn't think too much about it. She simply raised her foot to try and cross over, but unexpectedly, the frog man suddenly lifted his foot and hooked it around Alice's toes.
"ah!"
Alice almost fell, but at the last second, Shirou reached out and caught her, preventing her from falling directly to the ground.
"Hahahaha!"
"Look at these two brats, so young and they want to be adventurers?"
"Go back and drink your mother's milk, hahaha!"
The surrounding demons couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter.
