Why must the devil be Defeated? Chapter 12

Looking at the guild staff who smiled at him, Shane pondered for a moment, then spoke. "Excuse me, what procedures do I need to follow to become an adventurer?" Shane asked this question. Yes, Shane planned to become an adventurer. As a newcomer trying to make a living in this world, becoming an adventurer seemed like an unavoidable choice. Hence, Shane planned to try being an adventurer first and then continue to plan his future actions. At the very least, he had to avoid starving to death, right? "Okay, you want to become an adventurer, right?" The guild staff's smile did not fade, as if they had expected Shane's intention. "Then please allow me to explain the necessary details about adventurers and the adventurer's guild." Saying this, the guild staff began to explain fluently. "First of all, you may already have some understanding, but let me first explain what an adventurer is, and what the adventurer's guild is." As Shane had previously understood, adventurers were those who engaged in adventuring activities and worked by undertaking various commissions. They were spread across all nations, and you could see their presence in all corners of the world. Initially, they appeared in the period right after the ancient war ended a thousand years ago. To alleviate the various damages caused by the war, such a group of people appeared among the understaffed races, undertaking tasks for compensation from those commissioning the work. These people, after a millennium of development, became today's adventurers. Today, adventurers were an omnipresent existence in Omni Potanssen, a group reliant on by the high-levels of all countries, deeply trusted by the people. And the adventurer's guild was the organization that adventurers belonged to, responsible for managing adventurers and accepting commissions from various places and forces, categorizing them by difficulty and offering them to various adventurers for selection. In cities and towns across various nations, there was at least one division of the adventurer's guild, with the headquarters located in the Royal Capital of the Mitra Kingdom, the origin of adventurers. The Mitra Kingdom is the country Shane was currently in, part of Lamijion, and it is also the largest known country. Shane was eager to learn more about this country, but the guild staff seemed unwilling to elaborate. Then, concerning the "ancient war from a thousand years ago" and the "various races" mentioned by the guild staff, Shane also had the urge to inquire. Of course, regarding the latter, Shane at least understood it. Since entering the town of Lamijion, Shane had seen all sorts of incredible beings along the way. There were beastmen with animal ears and tails, Dwarves with large builds and short stature, Even elves, with pointed ears and extraordinary appearances. These races that existed only in legends from Shane's previous life now appeared naturally in the town, even within this adventurer's guild, mingling harmoniously with humans, exuding a fairytale-like charm. This otherworld seemed to house more than just humans, as it also had various races. Considering the existence of gods and demon kings, it was not surprising. However, Shane was somewhat intrigued about the "ancient war from a thousand years ago." This seemed to be common knowledge in this world, as the guild staff did not seem intent on explaining it further. Shane had to suppress his curiosity and continued to listen. Under these circumstances, the guild staff began the important explanation. "To become an adventurer, one must first reach the legal age of adulthood within their race. For humans and beastmen, that's fifteen years, for dwarves it's fifty, and for elves, one hundred and fifty. One must also reach Level 10 or above to meet the criteria for becoming an adventurer." "Adventurers also have level distinctions." "Adventurers at Level 10 or above are First Class Adventurers and receive a Black Iron First-class Junior Medal from the adventurer's guild." "Adventurers at Level 20 or above are Second-class Adventurers and receive a Bronze Second-class Intermediate Medal from the adventurer's guild." "Adventurers at Level 30 or above are Third Class Adventurers and receive a Silver Third-class Advanced Medal from the adventurer's guild." "Adventurers at Level 40 or above are Fourth Rank Adventurers and receive a Gold Fourth-class Top-level Medal from the adventurer's guild." "Adventurers at Level 50 or above are Fifth Class Adventurers and receive a Platinum Fifth-class Special Grade Medal from the adventurer's guild." "Adventurers at Level 60 or above are Sixth Rank Adventurers and receive a Mithril Sixth-class Celebrity Medal from the adventurer's guild." "Adventurers at Level 70 or above are Seventh Rank Adventurers and receive a Black Luster Seventh-class Honor Medal from the adventurer's guild." "Theoretically, Seventh Rank Adventurers are the highest level adventurers. Even in our adventurer's guild, which operates worldwide, there are only thirty-three adventurers of this level. Among them, four have reached Level 80 or above, and one is above Level 90. Although they are still officially Seventh Rank Adventurers with a Black Luster Seventh-class Honor Medal, their status differs from other Seventh Rank Adventurers. They are treated lavishly by various countries and some have even been made honorary nobles. They sometimes accept national-level commissions that can influence the state of a country, or receive direct commissions from royal families, enjoying great fame." "We at the adventurer's guild welcome anyone to join, looking forward to everyone being active on the world's stage as adventurers. As long as one hasn't lost their 'blessing,' we will never refuse." Hearing this, Shane raised an eyebrow. The term "blessing" was intriguing. Unaware of what Shane was thinking, the guild staff took out a tool and placed it on the counter. It was a tool with a floating crystal, looking like a small globe without a map. "This is a magic tester, possessing the same effect as a Level 6 Identification Skill. It can detect the levels of those below Level 70 and can also detect skills below Level 7. While it cannot detect unique skills or special skills, it can detect the presence of blessings, emitting white light to indicate a blessing and black light if not." The guild staff explained. "Please extend a hand and place it above the magic tester." Upon hearing this, Shane couldn't help but murmur internally. Clearly, if this magic tester emitted black light, his treatment might change drastically. What exactly was this "blessing"? According to the guild staff, it seemed to be a skill related to gods. Shane glanced at a skill in his skill list: Supreme God's Blessing. This seemed to be the "blessing" he had, right? Thinking of this, Shane calmed himself, extended a hand, and placed it over the magic tester. In the next moment, the crystal on the magic tester emitted a glow, causing lines of otherworldly text to appear one after another above the device. Fortunately, the glow was white. Seeing this, the guild staff smiled slightly, then shifted their gaze to the text floating above the magic tester. Upon seeing it, the guild staff froze.
