Chapter 35: Ultimatum



Silva noticed that she was holding back some information. Something must have happened to her to make her leave the luxurious life of a noble.

A baron might just be a step above a knight, but to a commoner, they were ridiculously rich people.

"Alright, well, you picked the perfect party to be a member of. Quin is very strong and skilled. I\'m sure you\'ll go far with them," Silva said.

Tera didn\'t reply; she simply nodded her head. Since she was fine talking to him, he faced Quin.

"So, tell me about the labyrinth situation," Silva asked.

"Well, you already know that it has been classified as an A-ranked labyrinth, right? Well, that\'s not all. According to what was reported, no team has been able to make it past floor five.

Several C-ranked and B-ranked teams have tried, but they get stuck on that floor and have to flee.

The labyrinth is just that dangerous. They even imposed a new setup: only teams from D rank and up can enter, and only individuals from C rank and up can enter alone," Quin explained.

"I see. I have plans to head there as well; maybe I\'ll tag along for a while," Silva said.

"No, the receptionist actually told me to tell you when I see you that the Guild Master is asking for you.

We were actually going to come by the house first and tell you before we left. I think he is still waiting for you," Quin said.

"The Guild Master? What could he want? Alright, thanks. I\'ll meet up with him and go to the labyrinth later," Silva said.

They chatted a little bit more and then parted ways. Silva headed upstairs to the Guild Master\'s office.

"Captain, was that who you just met?" Tera asked as they left.

"Oh, you are new to this town, so it\'s understandable that you don\'t know him," Quin replied.

"Is he popular or something?" she asked.

"Well, if by popular you mean that there is absolutely no towns person that does not know him, then yes, he is popular.

He is currently a C-ranked adventurer," Quin said.

"C-ranked, at his age? Is that even possible?" she asked in shock.

"Oh, it is. He became an adventurer at the age of six and has been growing since then. His strength is greater than C rank, actually; he could even be A-ranked in strength.

The only reason why he is C-ranked is that he refuses to join politics, so he hasn\'t done an upgrade quest.

Still, I wonder how long the guild will overlook that. His strength has far surpassed that of a C rank, and it is now becoming something that is troubling the other C ranks.

Silva knocked on the office door twice and waited for a reply.

"Come in." Raze\'s voice sounded from the inside.

Silva opened the door and walked in. He saw Raze seated in his chair and another man seated there as well.

"Silva, it seems my message got to you. We have been waiting for you to get here," Raze said.

"We?" Silva asked.

"Yes, this is the butler of the town lord, Baron Ezra. He is here on a matter that concerns you," Raze said.

"Concerns me?" Silva asked.

"There have been several complaints to me and to the Baron that you are taking all the C-ranked quests.

Your strength has far surpassed C rank, yet you adamantly choose to stay there. You take quests that would take others days and weeks to complete, and then you complete them in hours.

Because of that, you take several quests in the span of some days, and that has seriously dropped the number of C-rank quests available, forcing the C ranks to carry out lower-ranked quests.

That, in turn, is creating a lack of quests for those that are lower—a chain reaction caused by only you," Raze explained the situation.

"Then can\'t the guild allow me to just take B-ranked quests?" Silva asked. He understood what they were driving at, but he didn\'t want to give in.

"That\'s not possible," the butler spoke.

"A system that has been set up can\'t be continuously changed to favor one person. It was done before when you were a kid, and you were allowed to be an adventurer.

But now, you have come to the age where you understand your actions and know what to do. You can no longer force your personal desires to change rules," the butler explained.

"It is as he said, we can\'t decide to just change all the rules to fit you. You must be B-ranked and above to take B-ranked quests.

Now, I know that you may be thinking about staying in C rank, but sadly, this isn\'t a request, Silva. It is an order that has been passed down from the Baron himself. It is an ultimatum.

You must either take an upgrade quest before the day runs out, or your status as an adventurer will be revoked permanently," Raze explained the situation.

\'So it has come to this. I\'ve become that big of a threat where if the government can\'t control me, they\'ll try to start getting rid of me.

First, they\'ll revoke my status. Soon they\'ll charge me for a set-up crime, and one day I\'ll finally disappear without a trace, and everyone will forget about me.

Sigh, I ran away from this for as long as I could, but I am not strong enough to resist yet. Though that is only a matter of time. In due time, they won\'t be able to stop me.

Even if this is an inconvenience, it still has its good aspects, like the fact that I can learn more about this world and get closer to certain people.\'

"Alright, then what is the upgrade quest?" Silva asked.
