World’s Fastest Level up! - Chapter 114

Chapter 114 – Conviction

“So this is guild Yoizuki, huh…”

I could see a huge and magnificent building in front of me when I got out of the car. As expected of the headquarters of one of the top guilds in Japan.

“Amane-san, please follow me.”

“Aa”

Following Claire’s guidance, I entered the building.

As we walked along the beautiful corridor together, the people who were passing by greeted Claire when they saw her.

“Claire-san, good morning.”

“Ah, it’s Claire-san! Good morning~”

“Yes, good morning.”

From what I have seen, there were many people who were in their twenties in this guild, which was unusual for a top-ranking guild.

I was a little surprised because in this world, the longer one has been an adventurer, the higher their level was. Thus, people with abilities were often in their 30s or 40s.

And Claire was openly greeted by them.

“You sure are popular.”

“…. Although I don’t think I am hated, I think they did that mainly because I am the Guild Master’s daughter, you know?”

“Is that really the case? This is the first I’ve heard of it.”

As we continued to walk while having a conversation, we finally arrived at the Guild Master’s room.

When Claire knocked on the door, a voice sounded from inside in response.

“Enter.”

“Excuse me.”

Following Claire, I also entered the room. There was a man sitting on the desk at the back of the room.

“…Nn?”

I felt I’ve seen the man somewhere. Perhaps we have met somewhere in the past?

When I was thinking about something like that, Claire and the man started talking.

“As you ordered, I brought Amane-san. And then, regarding the dungeon collapse that occurred in Shiranui Dungeon”

“Aa, the association has already contacted me about that, so you don’t have to report it. Thank you for your hard work, Claire.”

After giving his thanks to Claire, the man finally turned his gaze to me.

“Thanks for coming, Amane. I am the guild master of 【Yoizuki】, Asakura Daisuke. Actually, I’ve recruited you once before, do you remember?”

“You have recruited me before…? Ah!”

I finally remembered why I felt I’ve seen this man before.

A year ago, after I left the King of Unique, there was a man who recruited me to a guild as he saw a good future prospect of [Transfer Within Dungeon].

At that time, because I had a repulsion to the word ‘comrade’, I refused without listening to him. But when I looked back on it, it was certainly this person who recruited me.

To think it wasn’t a recruitment from a scout but directly from the guild master, although this was too late, I was greatly surprised by that.

“Well then, I will excuse myself.”

Perhaps because she has accomplished her errand to bring me here, Claire immediately leaves the room, leaving only Asakura and me.

“Well, since it would be impolite to talk while standing, you can sit on that sofa”

“… Haa”

Feeling somewhat awkward, I sat on the sofa prepared for guests just as he said. Then, Asakura sat down on the opposite sofa bringing some documents with him.

“Now, without further ado, Amane-san, are you willing to join our–”

“Before that, can I ask one question?”

Although I knew it was rude, I interrupted Asakura’s remarks, which he nodded to without being angry.

“Aa, do ask”

Since I’ve gained his permission, I immediately asked a question that I absolutely have to ask.

“Why are you trying to recruit me? Is it because you saw a good prospect on my unique skill like before?”

If he nodded here, a weight would be removed off my shoulders a little. However, after showing a bold smile, Asakura said as if it was natural.

“You are half correct and half incorrect. Although it is true that I found value in your unique skill… it’s not about the future prospect but because I thought it already possesses an excellent ability now that it has awakened. Well, since it’s a hassle to do this in a roundabout way, I will directly say it– Amane, you are hiding your true power from the surroundings, right?”
