Overpowered Sword Chapter 22Level up with swords (22)

The daily lives of guild members are regular.

Adventurers wake up early in the morning, come to the guild, see if there are any good requests, and begin their activities in earnest. If I don’t find a good request, I take a day off or do personal business.

So, the inside of the guild continues to be quiet from around noon, once the adventurers have swept through, and only around sunset does it start to become crowded again as the returning adventurers report their results.

The cycle repeats itself every day.

Rize, a 5-year veteran receptionist, also thought it would be a day like any other day.

thud!

Until just now.

“…These are all Ratman’s tails?”

“yes.”

Rize held up the bag with a tired expression.

It’s heavy.

While working as a receptionist, I touched the Ratman’s tail several times. Even if one tail weighed only about 100g, even if there were dozens of them, it would only be a few kilograms, right?

Out of curiosity that was hard to pass up, I placed the bag on the scale and the scale needle started spinning.

“2 23 kilograms?”

Rize’s mouth dropped open.

23 kilograms means that a whopping 230 animals were subdued by simple calculation. I would have never thought that they would go to this extent in their initiation ceremony where they would be allowed to pass even if they killed only ten of them.

Even so, was a request that was difficult to achieve good results. There are not many people who venture into sewers, which are dark and dirty and can easily contaminate equipment due to sewage and odor. It was no exaggeration to say that, except for the occasional case where the guild sent them in for a punishment mission, there were none.

However, Leon not only took on the task voluntarily, but overachieved to an absurd level.

“Oh wait a minute.”

Leon put his hand into the bag, perhaps knowing that the guild had become quiet because of him.

This is because something other than a tail was put in there.

When he took something out of his pocket, the commotion that had subsided slightly became louder. Small, blunt horns. Rize’s eyes widened when she saw it up close.

“You can’t believe it’s a horn…?”

Leon agreed to that without hesitation.

“Yes, it’s the Ratman’s horn. After catching 200 fish, I only saw about 3 or 4 of them. “Can I sell this too?”

“Sure! “I’ll give it to you just fine!”

Rize immediately raised her voice.

Unlike the tail, the Ratman’s horns were worth a lot of money. This was because there were few adventurers who could subdue ratmen, and there were quite a few wizards who wanted to re

So, I lost my breath at El Cid’s one word.

[I thought I could teach leisurely for about half a year, but that doesn’t seem to work either. Even though it’s for training, it’s a shame that my successor is going around catching rats in the sewers!]

“What’s the reason?!”

[I need to get stronger as soon as possible and defeat the dragon!] As

Leon was mesmerized by the nonsense, El Cid continued to talk with excitement.

[Since you have learned the basics of and , all you have to do is get a lot of practical experience and get your body used to it. Let’s use all the power absorbed from monsters to train Aurors. Even if you catch a thousand Ratmen, it’s not enough, so once you get used to it, switch to another one.]

“No, you weren’t kidding, were you?”

[of course! How can it be that the Holy Sword is not some sort of cleaner but is active in purifying the air or doing laundry?]

El Cid said, revealing his true feelings without me knowing.

[You said it once last time, right? There is an arrangement I left behind in the Titan Mountains.]

“He said he couldn’t even remember what it was.”

[That’s because I forgot the main body. I’m sure there’s something that can help you too. Let’s make it our primary goal to get there within half a year. What do you think?]

Leon didn’t answer right away.

‘Why the Titan Mountains?’

Titan Mountains.

The weight of that place name was unusual. The Titan Mountains of this era are a dangerous area, like a powder keg, to the extent that the movement of the mountain range can be observed from over a thousand kilometers away.

A land where the Giant King reigns, an area that even dragons cannot access. A demon world where several kingdoms and empires invaded over hundreds of years and had to pay the price for their brutality.

It is said that if you don’t go too deep, there won’t be much trouble, but if you are unlucky, it was a place where even the sword master could be cheated.

[It’s okay! You don’t have to keep playing until you get there, but you can at least keep your body healthy. Isn’t that right?]

“Uhm….”

[Just trust me! I’m the Holy Sword!]

Leon looked at the back of his left hand with an untrustworthy expression on his face, but then nodded with a long sigh.

In reality, I have never been disappointed with the results.

And so the 100 days of hellish training began.
