A few days after the inspection date with?Philia, it seems that the stupid trio case was closed, so I visited the adventurer's guild in the territory.

In this world as well, the job of being an adventurer exists, and each territory has its own branch.

Basically, adventurer's guilds and churches are one of the places where no lord can invade.

Even the country is trying to keep a certain distance.

Of course, there are mutual contacts, and the lords and countries have the greatest authority, but for the most part the adventurer's guild and church maintain their own stance.

Meanwhile, in my territory, it seems that I have built a closer relationship than others.

Well, this is because I cooperated with both sides when cleaning up the previous management, and I am acquaintances with the adventurers guild's guild master, receptionists, adventurers, and church priests, and so on.

So, when I opened the door of the adventurer's guild, I got a lot of attention.

"Oh, lord-sama. Do you need to see the? Guild master?"

In the midst of many gazes, the receptionist who was nearby called out to me like that, and I was immediately led to the Guild master office.

"Oh, isn't it, lord-sama. I'm sorry for the stupid trio from the other day."

He's a strong, military-looking man with a large physique that makes him feel like a warrior.

That was my first impression of the Guild master appearance.

Well, it feels like brother Raul.

"No, it didn't affect that much.? That being said, it would be better to seriously stop the foolish imitation and blackmailing of ordinary people."

"Understand... so what are your requirements for today?"

"Before that, I have a question... did something happen?"

When I entered the guild, I felt the rush of the receptionists and the tired face of the Guildmaster, so I asked about it first.

"No... actually..."

He seemed to hesitate whether he should speak or not, but he finally spoke as if he had made up his mind.

"The appearance of 'Thunder Tiger' was witnessed..."

Thunder tiger.

Literally, a tiger wrapped in thunder, a monster that can only defeated by multiple A-rank adventurers.

A wild animal with magical powers.

They are called monsters, but the core of their bodies, the magic stone, is the source of their power, and the power used in magic tools.

Thunder Tiger huh... Lightning magic stones are rare, so I want it.

"Fuhh, I see. Are you in a rush to organize the subjugation force?"

"No, that's..."

According to Guildmaster, there is currently no A-rank adventurer in town, and there is only one group of B-rank adventurers at best.

And it seems that the sighting of the Thunder Tiger was confirmed yesterday, and the messager came from a village without a guild to our nearby town on a fast horse to report it.

"..Even if I want to do something about it as soon as possible, I don’t have enough people in my hand, so I am at loss..”

"Then, shall I go?"

"Huh? lord-sama?"

I received a somewhat confused gaze.

Well, it's impossible for an 8-year-old to exterminate monsters equivalent to an A-rank.

However, since we know each other for the past three years, I can't really ignore it.

"Guildmas, how old is the minimal age to get an adventurer's guild? card?? "

"It is 12 years old..."

“If I remember correctly, there are exceptions for nominating territory lords, Guild masters, and high-ranked adventurers.”

"Yes... Um, you're joking, aren't you?"

I snap my fingers in front the skeptical Gilmas.

Then, the Pegasus, which was wandering around my feet, returned to its original size and spread its beautiful wings.

"What...! Is it a Pegasus!?"

The Guildmaster widened his eyes at the appearance of the sacred beast.

While Queen was rubbing her head against me, she still gave off a dignified atmosphere.

By the way, Freya-chan above my head kept poking at me as if complaining that I didn't choose her.

But it is because, I can imagine, that the appearance of a phoenix will cause? Guilmas to faint...

"I think that me and her is enough.? I'll take the magic stones because I want it, but I'll sell the rest, so how about that?? "

“..I understand.? However, just in case, is it okay if you bring a B-rank adventurer party with you?

"I don't mind, but can they promise to keep quiet no matter what I do ?"

It would be troublesome if an adventurer who changed his base of operations from this territory, spread rumors about it in a strange way, so I will confirm that in advance.

Well, if it's B rank, then the thickness of their mouths can be guaranteed to some extent.

The higher the rank, the higher the standard of evaluation from the guild, which includes personality.

That's why it seems that it's an unspoken rule of this job that people with broken personalities can't go that far.

"That's fine. Those girls are trustworthy."

Girls?

Will it be a girls party?

Well, adventurer parties like that are not uncommon.

"Okay. Then it's fine."

"Then, I'll make the arrangements right away. They're here right now, so I will call them up."

Like that, I was relaxing in my chair, while playing with Queen and Freya who was in her little bird state. And after a knock, four women entered the room.

"Gilmas, what's wrong? "

"What have we done?"

A lively short-haired woman and a bespectacled witch asked with a troubled look.

"...probably about the Thunder Tiger."

"That's very likely."

Behind them, an expressionless magician girl with an eyepatch covering one eye, and a slender blonde knight-like gallant woman followed.

"Oh, about that. I want you guys to accompany me."

"Is Guildmas going?? But, even if you are there――Eh!? ?? Pegasus!? ?

It's a late reaction, but this is because we were hiding with transparency magic.

They figured it out just in time.

This was a request from the Guildmas, but despite being high-ranked adventurers, they were quite surprised that they hadn't even felt that anything was in the room until just now.

Moreover, what came out is Pegasus, a sacred beast.

And then--

"Huh? Lord-sama?"

"Wow, it's true."

My presence here shouldn't be abnormal.

Normally, it can be predicted that he would have consulted the lord about the Thunder Tiger matter.

In fact, It is normal for the short-haired and glasses-wearing women to react like that, but the other two didn't seem to think so.

"... lord-sama, is that Pegasus yours?"

"Yeah, that's right."

"... hey, what's going on"

The face of the expressionless eyepatch magician girl after confirming that, moved slightly, and the gallant female knight glares at the Guilmast.

I thought she was going to say something like a joke at a time like this, but her words were completely different.

"So much, even though he is the territory lord, how can you entrust the subjugation of the Thunder Tiger to a child!?? ”

“..But you do understand, don’t you, Shalltear?”

"Certainly, I know the strength of the lord, but... let alone an adventurer's job

this is an adult's problem!"

I see, she seems to have a strong sense of justice.

"Calm down... that's why you're a left over, you know?"

"Shut up! That has nothing to do with this!"

"No one would want a wife who is so loud."

Really? For me, she is going to be a good and reliable mother, but... well, everyone has their own tastes.

Or rather, she seems to know my ability, but why?

"... Shalltear, stop."

"But, Cecil. This is..."

"...The two of us saw lord-sama using magic before. Besides, that Pegasus... definitely stronger than us."

"Muu, but..."

"Ah... So, does that mean lord-sama is the owner of that Pegasus?"

I nod to that question from the short-haired woman.

"Well, I treat her like my friend and my child. More importantly, regarding the subjugation of the Thunder Tiger, I'll do it, so I want the four of you to watch over me."

"Um... But to let a child face of a monster..."

"That's right, Ain! "

The female knight.... Shalltear nodded at the short-haired girl’s words and was delighted as if she had gained more allies.

"Hmm... But Lord-sama is a great magician, isn't he? Besides, I think it would be the job of Guilmast to decided."

"...I also agree with Clay."

At the words of the magician Clay, Cecil, the eyepatch girl, said so as if she was convinced of something.

"But..."

"... If you're that worried, you should protect him, Shalltear."

"Yeah, maybe that's not necessary."

"... Oh, I understand."

She didn't seem convinced, but after answering that, Shalltear greated me like a knight.

It looks like it's settled.

Then, I memorize everyone's faces and names while also introducing myself.

The female knight from before is named Shalltear, and she often acts as the tank.

Her large shield and sword were shining white and looked cool.

The eyepatch magical girl is Cecil.

She's the only teenager in this party, and she can use dark magic.

Dark magic--well, it's the exact opposite of light, but its effects are mainly cursing the opponent, aggravating injuries, and the pinnacle of it is manipulating even life and death.

Well, I can use it too, but although this magic is rare, people don't like it very much, so it seems that she gave up on serving the aristocrats and became an adventurer.

The other two, the short-haired woman is Ain, and the bespectacled witch is Clay.

Like a swordsman, Ain is the vanguard, and Clay is the main force behind the rear.

For my self-introduction, it was almost unnecessary.

Everyone seems to know that I'm doing this and that in the territory, and Shalltear and Cecil apparently witnessed my magic when I was messing with the territory.

I see, is that why she believed me when I told them that I am the summoner of the Pegasus?

"Then, let's get this done quickly. What about my guild card?"

“It will take some time.. you can get prepared in the meantime.”

"Okay"

Well, I don't need any special preparations...However, it can be said that preparation is necessary because of the distance.

It takes a day even for a horse, so I really want to fly quickly on Pegasus by myself, but I don't want to leave the four supervisors behind

That said, if I call the other kids, which will carry? And those? could not carry me, will they sulk and refuse to move?

It's frustrating... After all, party play doesn't suit me.

Also, it was helpful that everyone immediately nodded when Gilmas told them not to talk about what had happened in this request.

I'm not guilty of anything, but just in case.
