I’m an Appraiser, But What the Heck is a [Divine Eye]? ~I Want to Live Freely as the World’s Best Beginner Class~ - Episode 57: The Super Common Hero Summoning 52

Episode 57: The Super Common Hero Summoning 52

The next day, Alicia explained the development of the Forest of Demons to the soldiers. As expected, there were many voices of surprise. But thanks to the presence of Sensei, who had returned from rescuing Ryan-san and Ricott-san from the forest, any opposition quickly died down.

A few days later, the Guild Master of the Adventurers Guild must have heard about this plan and stormed into the barracks. But Ryan calmly handled the situation.

“Hey, Ryan! Even with the help of a top-tier profession, developing the Demon Forest is impossible! You, of all people, should understand that best!”

“Calm down, Gorratzo. We have more allies than just Haruka-sama.”

“What?! …Are you talking about that kid?”

…Ahaha, Guild Master, please don’t glare at me like that.

Currently, I was in the room discussing the progress of the Forest of Demons development with Ryan-san and Sensei when the Guild Master barged in, shouting.

“…Hey, kid!”

“Y-yes!”

“Who the hell are you? I’ve heard rumors that some adventurer came back from the Forest of Demons recently. Was that you?”

“…Uh, well, maybe?”

“Was it or wasn’t it!?”

“Yes! I’m the one from the rumors!”

So, please stop glaring at me!

“Calm down, Gorratzo! …Sigh. Maki-sama, could you come over here for a moment?”

“…Y-yes.”

With a sigh, Ryan-san called me over, giving me a way out of the Guild Master’s intense stare. What Ryan-san said next, however, surprised me. As I had already heard about the situation about the Adventurers Guild from Alicia.

“Gorratzo is a trustworthy man. Why don’t you explain your profession to him and get the Adventurers Guild to cooperate with us?”

“Um, I’ve only heard about the Adventurers Guild from Alicia and Glenn. They told me the relationship between the lord and the guild isn’t very good. What’s the deal with that?”

I had heard that the previous lord had a good relationship with the guild. But ever since Alicia became the new lord, that cooperation had broken down. While getting the Adventurers Guild to cooperate would certainly be appealing, I didn’t want to betray Alicia.

“That’s a misunderstanding, Maki-sama.”

“But that’s what she told me herself, you know?”

“It’s definitely a misunderstanding on the lord’s part.”

“Whoa!”

…..Wait, why are you getting closer, Guild Master? We were talking from a distance!

“A-a misunderstanding, you say?”

“The lord hasn’t been doing what she’s supposed to for the guild. That’s why we’ve been forced to take action, and it’s led to conflict.”

“Then what exactly is she supposed to be doing?”

“Why don’t you ask the chamberlain? They’d know.”

“But there *isn’t* a chamberlain anymore. How would I find out?”

“…Huh?”

…Yeah, don’t give me that “impossible” look. It’s true that only Alicia and Glenn remain at the mansion; there’s no one else.

“When the previous lord passed away and Alicia took over, everyone abandoned her and left.”

“…Those bastards! They told me they passed everything down to the next chamberlain!”

The Guild Master clenched his fists, trembling with anger.

Hmm, looks like this whole conflict between Alicia and the Guild Master was just a misunderstanding.

“I should check with Alicia, but…”

“Sorry for the wait! …Huh? What’s going on, everyone?”

…Perfect timing, Alicia!

I quickly explained the misunderstanding between Alicia and the Guild Master, and the Guild Master explained what the lord was supposed to do. It turned out that the main issues were adjusting the power balance between the soldiers and the Adventurers Guild and formalizing an agreement on thinning the magic beasts in the area.

“…I-I deeply apologize, Gorratzo-sama!”

“No, I also made the mistake of believing what those who left said and didn’t bring the matter up with the lord. I apologize for that as well.”

With both sides lowering their heads in apology, we were able to establish a cooperative relationship between the lord and the Adventurer’s Guild.

Since Ryan-san vouched for the Guild Master’s trustworthiness, it seemed fine to tell him about me. Besides, since I was planning to become an adventurer anyway, my secret would eventually come out.

“So, about my profession—”

I explained that my job was highly likely to be a special-class profession, how my abilities were critical for developing the Forest of Demons, and that both Sensei and I were from another world. I also mentioned that more people from other worlds might be transported here, so we needed to hasten the development to rescue them.

“Man, to think the kid has a special-class profession!”

“Well, probably.”

“With abilities that crazy, it’s definitely a special-class profession! So, can you Appraise me too?”

“Um, sure, if you don’t mind…”

As I Appraised the Guild Master, I started reading off the information.

“Your name is Gorratzo Stones. Level 33, profession… Berserker?”

“Oh ho, you can really see it, huh? Yep, I’m an adventurer who made it to the top with the advanced-class profession of Berserker. I’m the Guild Master of the Adventurers Guild, nice to meet you!”

“Y-yeah, nice to meet you.”

And so, we reconciled with the Adventurers Guild, and the development of the Forest of Demons progressed rapidly from there.
