An Incompetent Explorer Who Failed to Make His High School Debut but Mastered Being a Human Being Chapter 56

Episode 056 News that is too timely

 

“Study session today.”

 

 Shia murmured at me after homeroom was over. She has a sad expression.

 

 Oh, I see, that's what it is.

 

“Do you mean you can't go to the dungeon today?”

 

“Yes.”

 

 Her ahoge is also wilting.

 

 It's a pity that we can't go to the dungeon.

 

“Well, study sessions are mandatory. Let's go again when there is no study session.”

 

“Hmm.”

 

“Then, see you tomorrow.”

 

“Tomorrow.”

 

 Unexpectedly, I was alone today.

 

 Well, I can always get in using Luck's shadow. Now that the Union's investigation team is blocking the dungeon, it's not bad to earn as much as I can in the shallow layers of the Shushima Dungeon.

 

 However, as long as the investigation team is there, I can't go in too far. If I go deeper, there may be strong monsters, but the possibility of encountering the investigation team will increase dramatically.

 

 As long as my luck is too high to see a monster that can't die in one shot, I wanted to go to the D-rank dungeon quickly and encounter a monster that can't be defeated in one shot. There may be monsters that are stronger than Luck.

 

“I want to rank up after all …”

 

-Purururururu

 

 It was when I muttered such a thing.

 

 My cell phone went off.

 

“Hello.”

 

[ Hello, this is the Toyoshima Branch of the Explorer's Union, is it correct that this is the mobile phone of Satou Fuhito-sama? ]

 

“Yes, it is.”

 

 When I answered the phone, it was a call from a staff member of the Explorers' Union.

 

[ My name is Haishima from the Toyoshima Branch of the Explorers' Union. My best regards. ]

 

“My best regards.”

 

[ I am contacting you today because, it seems that you haven't come to the Union for a while, so I have some information I would like to inform you, I don't think you have heard it yet. Therefore, is it possible to visit the branch once? ]

 

 By the way, I only went to the purchase shop.

 

 It seems that there was something they wanted to contact me about. I think it's okay to talk on the phone, but it may be something related to protected information.

 

“Well, I have time, so is it okay to go there today?”

 

[ Yes, the Union is open until 22:00 in the evening, so there is no problem. ](TN:Aaaand now the author is mixing the 24 hour time plus the morning/evening. Consistency }.{)

 

 The Union is open until later than I expected.

 

 I think that part is probably tailored to the explorers.

 

“OK, I'll go now.”

 

[ Understood. The person in charge will be number 5, so please issue a numbered ticket for the person who made the reservation there and wait. ]

 

“I understand. Thank you very much.”

 

[ No, no. Well then, we await your arrival. Well then, goodbye. ]

 

“Yes, goodbye.”

 

-Putsuuu, tsuu, tsuu, tsuu

 

 When I hung up the phone, I went home and changed my clothes before heading to the Toyoshima branch.

 

[ Explorers' Union Toyoshima Branch departing ~, Toyoshima Branch departing ~. ]

 

 After getting on the train, it took about 30 minutes to get to the Explorers' Union by bus.

 

 Maybe it was faster to run. I wonder if I should walk on the way home and run on that road the next time I come back.

 

-Wiiiin

 

 The automatic door opens and I step inside the Explorers' Union. The interior was like a hospital with an interior that was not much different from the local Union.

 

“The fifth window is ……… there?”

 

 Looking around the Union and finding the window, I immediately issued a numbered ticket to the window and sat down on a nearby bench. Because the time was in the evening, I had the impression that it was more crowded than when I went at my hometown before.

 

“If you have numbered ticket number 134, please enter here.”

 

Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks

 I had a reservation and it was relatively quick, and my turn came around.

 

“Sorry I made you wait.”

 

“No, I didn't wait at all.”

 

 When I went inside, the owner of the voice I heard on the phone stood up and bowed.

 

 A beautiful woman in the latter half of her 20s.

 

 Are there a lot of beautiful people in the Explorers' Union?

 

 It may not be a bad idea to take a job hunting exam for the Explorers' Union.

 

 I have thought about it.

 

“Then please sit down.”

 

“Oh, yes.”

 

 When prompted by Haishimsan to sit down on the chair facing her, Haishimsan also sat down in her own seat.

 

“My name is Haishima. It's nice to meet you.”

 

“I'm Satou, Nice to meet you.”

 

“Then, let's talk about what I wanted to tell you this time.”

 

 After we introduce ourselves to each other, we get into the main subject.

 

“Since Satou-sama's explorer's contribution has reached a certain level, it is possible to challenge the rank-up test. How would you like to deal with it?”

 

“Eh!? Is that true?”

 

“Yes, of course.”

 

 I was surprised by the facts.

 

 What!! It seems that I can rank up.

 

 I heard that it's easy to go from F-rank to E-rank, but I thought it was still a ways ahead because I was at the bottom.

 

 Before you know it??

 

 This may be due to the bonus monsters.

 

“I would love to receive it.”

 

“OK. How do you plan to do it?”

 

“Can I take it any day?”

 

“That's right. You can take low-ranked exams almost every day.”

 

 Well, then I want to rank up quickly.

 

“Is that right. If possible, it's better to be early, so tomorrow is better.”

 

“I understand. How about the time?”

 

“That's right. Is it okay if the time is around 18:00?”

 

“Yes, no problem. I'll make a reservation at 18:00 tomorrow.”

 

“Thank you. Is there anything I need to bring?”

 

“That's right. Please come to the E-class Namioka Dungeon dressed for the dungeon. Other than that, it's okay as long as you bring your explorer card.”

 

 You don't test here, you do it in the dungeon.

 

 What kind of test is it?

 

“I understand. I'm looking forwards to working with you.”

 

“Yes, likewise. Do you have any other questions?”

 

“Well, can you tell me the details of the exam, the passing conditions, and the announcement of pass / fail?”

 

“Yes, I will refrain from giving specific details, but the promotion test to E-rank will be monster subjugation in the E-rank dungeon. There will be an examiner in charge, so please follow the instructions from that person. The same applies to the passing conditions. You will be notified of pass or fail on the same day.”

 

“I understand.”

 

“Is there anything else?”

 

 Well, maybe the rest is okay.

 

“The rest is okay.”

 

 I thought about it, but I couldn't think of anything else, so I shook my head.

 

“Then, today's information is over. Please come to the fifth window tomorrow before the appointed time.”

 

“I understand.”

 

 I will take the rank-up exam tomorrow.
