[The Good for Nothing Me Has A Hidden Talent]

“Achoo! I got goosebumps all of a sudden. Ahー, there it is. It was exactly as that woman told me. I thought it might be smaller because it’s the frontier, but it’s surprisingly big.”

After refreshing at the barber shop, I came to the adventurer’s guild to get living in this frontier city Youg Hannotes.

I didn’t know where it was because it was my first time in this city, but when I asked a woman walking along the street about the location, she kindly brought me to the neighborhood.

Well then, now that I won’t use it anymore, should I throw this platinum adventurer badge? From now on, I will start from scratch, as the beginner adventurer Frick.

It may not be possible to make a lot of money because there are many requests that can’t be taken for a while, but should I use all my experiences so far to complete requests so that I can go up to platinum at once?

Alright, let’s go.

I threw a small badge indicating the platinum rank I got with Alfine as Finn in my hand into the trash can, opened the door of the adventure’s guild and entered inside

Inside the adventurer’s guild, there is a bar and waiting room where you can have drinks and simple snacks, and reception desks to accept requests, it was made in the same way as the adventurer’s guild we used in the royal capital.

I went to the new adventurer registration reception desk without hesitation.

“Welcome. Do you want to register as a new adventurer? If now, we can process immediately.”

A young receptionist in a matching blue adventurer guild uniform received me.

In the capital, their reception are bad and the adventurer’s guild’s receptionist has bad reputation, but it seems that it is different in the frontier’s Youg Hannotes.

“Thank you very much. Can I register as an adventurer?

“I understand. Please sit down there. I will prepare the documents immediately.”

I sat down on the chair recommended by the receptionist, and while she is preparing the documents, I looked around the inside of the guild.

In the afternoon’s adventurer’s guild, there were only those who were drinking in the waiting room or talking to the receptionist at the reception desk.

Because I heard there are strong monsters around the frontier, I thought most of the people here would be more grim.

The people who are here now seem to be weaker than the adventurers of the royal capital.

It’s already past noon, so have they took request and go out?

If it’s at the royal capital, even in the afternoon, the counters was always crowded with adventurers that was taking requests, and the waiting room was also always crowded.

“Thank you for waiting. The documents are ready, so let me explain.”

It was years ago, but I’ve received the same explanation, so I just pretend to listen to her, then I write down on the documents necessary for registration.

I didn’t change my age, but I change my name and birthplace, then I was able to register as an iron rank adventurer Frick.

“Frick-sama, we have completed your registration, so from today on you are an iron rank adventurer belonging to this Youg Hannotes adventurer’s guild. Please wear this emblem where it can be seen.”

Anyone can register at the adventurer’s guild regardless of their status as long as they are an adult and have no criminal record.

The emblem badge showing the adventurer’s rank is divided into five ranks that starts from iron, then bronze, silver, gold and lastly platinum. The rank restrictions was set by the adventurer’s guild to prevent adventurer from taking mission that’s out of their ability.

And the design of the emblem was different depending on which city the adventurer’s guild was located.

The royal capital had an eagle flapping shape, but this Youg Hannotes had a design in which a dragon was breathing out flames.

I received the emblem from the receptionist and put it on my collar.

“Is this okay?”

“Yes, it’s okay. Frick-sama, if you have any problems, please feel free to contact me. I’m here on adventurer’s guild open time.”

When I glanced at the name tag, [Rebecca] was written there.

Unlike the receptionists in the royal capital, she is a very kind child, so if I have a problem, I’ll consult to her.

“Ah! That’s right! Frick-sama, the adventurer’s guild of Youg Hannotes now offer magic power measurement free of charge for new registrants. Would you like to try it?”

Rebecca, who completed the registration work, take out a crystal ball to measure magic power.

According to Alfine ーwho had a natural talent for swordplay even before becoming an adventurerー magic is heresy, that’s why I have never measured my magic aptitude.

Magic, huh. Should I give it a try?

I would manage with a sword even if I had no aptitude, and if I had the aptitude, I would like to use magic as well.

“Hm? If it’s free, then should I check it? Is it enough by touching this?”

“Yes, if you touch it, the color will change depending on the amount of your latent magic power.”

I ーwho was interested in magic but was stopped by Alfine because it is heresyー touched the crystal ball according to Rebecca’s instruction.

*pakin*(TLN : glass shattering sound)

The moment I touched it, the crystal ball shining brightly for a moment, then shattered.

I thought ーoh no! I broke itー, and asked while glancing at Rebecca’s face.

She was solidified and her eyes has turned to dots.

“Um, should I pay the reparation for this?”

“Hyaa!? Ah, no, it looks like it’s broken, isn’t it. I’ll take out a new one so… P-, please wait for a moment.”

When I thought that Rebecca was hiding under the counter, she made a rummaging sound right after, then she took out another crystal ball.

She touched it herself and saw that the crystal ball was dyed pale green and confirmed that it was working properly.

“N-, noow, please take your measurement with this. This is a new crystal ball一”

When I touched the crystal ball in the same way as before, it shines brightly for a moment then shattered as well.

“Like, sorry. Looks like I broke it again.”

“N-, no way… The only one who can broke this crystal ball is the one who was called [Infinite Mage], Noelia Henestrosa-sama… No way, Frick-sama has the same amount of magic power as her…”

The series of commotion seemed to be noticed by receptionists and adventurers at the counter, and curious onlookers were gathering one after another.

No way, I ーwho have a half baked sword talentー have such a great magic power…

There must be a mistake.

“There’s no way that’s true. Both must be defective products. Iyaaー, it startled me.”

“P-, please wait a minute. I’ll call the guild master right away to take your precise measurement.”

“Ah, no. I have found out that I have magic power anyway, and I’m thinking of make a living here. I’d appreciate it if you’ll not making it a serious matter.”

To Rebecca who was in a hurry, I showed her the cheap sword that I bought when I came to this town.

Although not as good as Alfine’s sword talent, at least I had the ability to handle the monster subjugation request that I took in the platinum rank, so I should be able to handle it.

After I said that, I tried to leave the reception desk一一

“That gentleman over there, can’t you please wait for a while?”

Someone called up to me when I got up from the reception desk.
