Chapter 51 : Drunk Ren
T/N: Yes, this is the drunk Ren you guys been waiting for! Enjoy!
———————————-
"Ren, come sit here with us." Malik-san called out to me and motioned me to sit beside him.
"Okay. I've finished cooking so I will join you guys."
I sat on the empty space beside Malik-san so Malik-san was on my left side while Chris-san was on my right side.
"Itadakimasu. Oh, it IS delicious!~ I never drank any alcohol in Alsar before so I wonder whether the alcohol in here tastes different compared to the alcohol in earth." I munched the german potatoes that I cooked, it was really delicious!
Truth was, even back in earth I rarely drink.
I couldn't handle my alcohol well so usually I always opted for whenever I was invited to drinking party.
"Hmm, well there's all kind of variety of alcohol so it'd be hard to tell. Ren, do you prefer sweet alcohol or the bitter one ?"
"I think I like the sweet one better."
"Then do you want to try this fruit wine? I have apple flavoured fruit wine here."
"Ooh, let me try that one please."
Malik-san took out a bottle of fruit wine from his stash and poured a glass for me which I received gratefully.
"Oh, it's sweet. I like it, it's delicious."
"Good for you, Ren! That fruity one is too sweet for me so I couldn't finish it off."
The fruit wine was sweet and refreshing so I could drink it easily, unlike beer.
Ah but it seemed like this drink had high alcohol content, I needed to be careful so I wouldn't get drunk.
"Ah that's right Ren, about your rank. The paperwork for promoting the rank to B rank can be done in common adventurer guild like the one I work at but to promote someone's rank to A rank, the procedure is a little different. I need to receive permissions from the other country's adventurer guild for it. I always forgot about it! Hahaha!"
"Ah.. I see."
"Yeah so, once every 3 months, the representative from each country's adventurer guild gathered in one place to have a meeting. The discussion about promoting someone to rank A or rank S will be held there. Both rank A and rank S is a special title for an adventurer so we need to gain approval from other country's adventurer." Malik-san continued his explanation.
Eh..
If I wasn't wrong, there was only 10 S rank adventurers and 50 A rank adventurers.
Certainly those people were the top of the cream, their number was less than 1% of the total adventurer in Alsar.
Well, that kind of thing was unrelated to me though.
"I see but why are you telling me this Malik-san? I mean, that kind of thing is unrelated to me, right? I don't understand why I need to know about something like that."
"Listen here Ren, you defeated redondo dragon during your subjugation quest didn't you? You managed to put the redondo dragon to sleep and gave those three the opportunity to actually defeat the dragon. Defeating a redondo dragon is not an easy feat, even for a bunch of A rank adventurer. Hence why I'm sure in the next meeting, they will talk about promoting you to A rank."
