The completed "Guided Brit" became a magic that could be learned at magic level 15, and since it is a magic with three characteristics of D-particle secondary mutation, the level at which it can be learned seems to have been raised.

　The morning after I had breakfast, I went out to the garden to stretch my legs. At that moment, I heard a young child's voice coming from the other side of the gate.

I'm sure it's here. I saw a dragon flying here."

No, it's not true. Dragons only live in dungeons."

　I approached the gate and looked down from the top of the gate. Two kindergarteners were talking outside the gate.

That's a flying dragon shadow puppet."

　These young children look surprised, then tilt their heads.

Shadow Puppets?　What's that?"

It's a magic creature, an ally."

　I told him it was a 'demon that would be an ally' because he wouldn't understand if I told him it was a messenger.

"Uncle, let me see that."

　I was a little shocked. Even though I was a kindergartener, I had not expected to be called 'uncle'.

　But come to think of it, he is old enough to drink and deserves to be called an uncle.

Yeah, okay."

　I opened the gate and let them in the compound. Sensing their presence, Bengal, the security shadow puppet who had been patrolling, came running.

　Acknowledging me, Bengal slows down and slowly approaches me and rubs his head against me. The two kids roll their eyes and look at Bengal.

This is just another cat-shaped shadow puppet."

No, there are no cats this big.

In the dungeon there is a big black cat called the Dark Cat. This cat patrols the mansion to make sure thieves don't enter.

Can I touch you?"

It's okay," he said. But don't try to enter the mansion when your uncle is not there. These cats will catch you and put you in jail.

The author's tale has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

　I call out for Haklo as I watch the two kids happily stroke the Bengal's body. Haklo flies in from inside the mansion.

It's a dragon. But it's tiny."

You're so tiny. Are you an adventurer, Uncle?"

　Hakuro perched on my shoulder. The neighborhood kids didn't seem to know I was an adventurer. Do the residents of the neighborhood not realize that this is Battalion?　Come to think of it, we haven't put up any signs or anything. Should I make a sign?

　Taaboy came too, so the kids played with him, saying he was 'cute' and then left. Taa-bo climbed up my body and onto my shoulders and hugged my head.

Duduy, gawwah, hakuro."

　Taabo said in bear-speak, 'I want to fly, like Hakuro. When I told him that was a bit impossible, he was disappointed.

　I headed to the Adventurers' Guild to gather the latest information on the Narukami dungeon. When I entered the guild, there was a commotion. I asked Maria, the receptionist, what was going on.

Mr. Montaner, a grade A student from Spain, is here. I'm talking to the branch manager right now."

He said, "Wow. You're ranked ninety-sixth, right? How strong is he?"

Mr. Montaner became famous for slaying 'Gargouille,' the dragon from which gargoyles originated."

　Gargouille is said to have been a 15-meter-long, long-necked dragon. Its strength surpassed that of the five major dragons, and it is said that even A-level adventurers had to be ranked within the top 100 to defeat it.

　If you are in the top hundred of the ranking, you possess a mythical magical weapon or secret magic, which probably means that your defense is so high that you cannot be defeated without such a weapon.

　At that moment, the branch manager and an adventurer came out from the back of the guild. The branch manager caught my eye and approached me.

Let me introduce you. This is Mr. Montaner, a Class A adventurer from Spain.

　The branch manager introduced Montaner and me. The branch manager introduced us in English, which I could understand.

If you haven't made the top one hundred yet, you're not a real grade A."

　Montaner says this not in a mocking way, but in a matter-of-fact, matter-of-fact way.

　When that Montaner leaves the guild, the branch manager looks relieved.

Do you get nervous even as a chapter president?"

He is a class A adventurer, but Montaner is a hard-headed man. It's hard to deal with him.

　Me and the branch manager went to the branch manager's office.

Mr. Montaner came for the ten-layer coiled peach, right?"

Yes," he said. His sponsor is a Spanish pharmaceutical company, so they have a specialized collection of ingredients for their drugs."

　When I asked about Montaner, the branch manager told me everything he knew about him. He said that his weapon is a mythical magical weapon called a "flotty". There is a myth that the flotty is a weapon that belonged to a dragon named Fhavnir.

　It is a kind of stabbing sword with tremendous penetrating power, and it is said that demons hit by its thrust are frozen to death. It seems to be a magical weapon that is an order of magnitude more powerful than the magic of "Cold Shot.

Some A-level adventurers base their evaluation of adventurers solely on their ranking, and Mr. Montaner seems to be one of them.

　I remember he was like, I'm not in the top hundred, I'm not in the top hundred, I'm not in his eyes. But his rank is 96th. I can't say it's that high up in the rankings. Maybe that is what Montaner was told by another A-level adventurer.

Is ranking order really that important?"

'Personally, I don't think it matters much. But when it comes to corporate sponsorships, it does seem to me that they choose based on rankings."

　I was told that 　adventurers whose ranking is in the top 100 have a magic level of more than 25. My magic level is 19, so I thought it was indeed amazing.

　At this level, they are not allowed to go up even if they beat the big guys.

How are we going to break through the slug meadow?"

Mr. Montaner has a flotilla. I'm sure he'll go on, killing running slugs with a single blow."

　That's right. If I had a magical weapon that could defeat a running slug with a single blow, I would have no trouble in the slug meadow. I thought to myself, "This is the one time I want a mythical magic weapon.
