Chapter 77: A Designated Request from the Guild
Yuto: “Hm…...the Boots of Alseis. This is also a named item.” The Dropped Item Boots had the official name [Boots of Alseis].
This is the second time Yuto received an item with a name attached to it.
The first was the [The Nereids’ Staff].
The staff was an incredibly powerful Spellcaster’s weapon.
And this time, there is a name attached to the boots.
Yuto: “These might be amazing boots just like everyone said!”
Yuto’s expectations are now rising higher and higher.
Yuto takes out the boots from his inventory and puts them on.
The boots are actually several times bigger than Yuto’s feet.
Even if he was to tie the laces very tightly, it would still be incredibly awkward to walk in.
But after putting on the boots for some time, the boots themselves shrunk and matched Yuto’s shoe size perfectly.
Yuto: “Okay, good. The Resize Spell was engraved into the item.”
Yuto lets out a breath of relief.
The boots do feel a little tough and hard.
It’s because his previous shoes were worn down so much that it became too soft.
This is probably how an Adventurer’s boots should feel in the first place.
Yuto takes Pino who continued to sit on his head onto the bed, and moves and steps around the room quickly.
He could hear the high <squeek squeek!> of the new boots as it rubbed against the floor.
This was not a sound he heard from previous shoes he owned.
The sole of the boots is gripping the floor pretty hard.
If Yuto was to sprint from here, he might accidentally rip the floor boards beneath him and send them backwards.
But no matter how hard he gripped the floor, Yuto didn’t feel any discomfort in his feet at all.
Yuto: “These are completely different…..they’re incredible shoes…..”
Tomorrow, Yuto was determined to relay his gratitude to Dannan and Eliz right away.
Yuto swore to himself to do so.
When he was done checking his new footwear, he looked at his Status again.
Right now, he had 35 Skill Points saved up.
If there is this much, he could use some without worry, and Yuto taps the screen with his finger.
>>Skill Point: 35 → 15
>>All Abilities Enhancement Lv 4 → 5
Yuto: “Good. Now all my base Skills are B-Class level!”
Yuto makes a tight fist to celebrate.
Since all of his Fundamental Skills increased all at once, he felt his body get lighter just standing there.
His Skill is now Level 5 - this is the average standard for B-Rank Adventurers.
With this, Yuto’s Main Skills all reached B-Rank.
His Level is just shy of what we wants, but he’s now Level 39.
With one more Level, he will reach the average B-Rank standard, and that’s only a matter of time now.
But even so, even if your Level and Skill rise, it doesn’t mean your rank automatically rises either.
In order to be promoted to B-Rank, you will need to accomplish an equivalent feat and contribute significant amount of points to the Guild.
Andーーthese are just rumors butーーin order to rise to B-Rank, you will need to have some sort of special power or strength.
Yuto doesn’t know what is meant by this special power or strength.
And these are just rumors.
But between a B-Rank Adventurer and a C-Rank Adventurer, there is an even bigger difference than the division between the C-Rank and D-Rank.
Right now, Yuto would not be able to face the B-Rank Chaos Slime or Mithril Golem and fight them back to back, but a B-Rank Adventurer would be able to fight them back-to-back continuously.
In order to rise to B-Rank, Yuto is certain that some sort of additional, special strength will be required.
Thus, there are still many things Yuto lacks.
Yuto: “I need to work even harder!”
With renewed determination, Yuto went to bed.

The next day, Yuto met up with his Party Members and headed to the Temple. When they got to the Temple, one of the Guild Workers called them over.
Yuto: “A Designated Request by the Guild for us?”
“Yes, could we discuss this more in detail?” A Designated Request would be a Request selected for a specific Adventurer or Party by the Guild.
Unlike ordinary Requests, there is a better reward prepared - at least that’s what the rumors say.
Because you are specifically selected, you usually have to have a certain level of skill and strength, and you also need to be fairly well-known.
For Yuto’s Party, this was not something that should have happened for a while.
But today, the Request fell into Yuto’s Party’s lap.
Dannan: “Hey, Yuto. Isn’t this some sort of mistake?” Eliz: “Yes, yes. I don’t think we would be selected for Requests like this.”
Yuto: “Yes, I think so too.”
Yuto’s Party is C-Rank.
It’s not that they are not strong, but the C-Rank Adventurers fall directly in the middle of the hierarchy among Adventurers.
There are plenty of stronger Party’s above them.
Yuto: “I don’t believe we have enough strength or recognition to receive a Guild Request though….”
“Mr. Yuto, your Party just cleared a brand new Instant Dungeon that came out just the other day. They looked at those results and considered this Designated Request as appropriate for your team.”
Yuto: “............is that so?”
An unknown Dungeon requires much more adaptability than previously cleared Dungeons.
By clearing the new Dungeon, the Guild admitted that Yuto’s Party has the ability to [adapt effectively regardless of the circumstances].
Yuto: “What should we do?” Dannan: “Let’s at least hear them out. If the Request is too much, we can always refuse.” Eliz: “Yes, yes.” With Eliz and Dannan’s consent, Yuto decided to at least hear the contents of the Request from the Guild Worker.
