World's Fastest Level up!

A little over a year ago. Akari, who tried to obtain status just like many other people, was able to obtain it safely. At that time, it was found that she possessed a number of excellent skills as a tank.

After that, apparently she was invited to form a party with a close senpai who was already active as an adventurer at that time and dive into the dungeon with them. Thanks to the support of those senpai and of course her own talent, her level was raised steadily.

Naturally, that made Akari believe that she would keep steadily rising to new heights as an adventurer with them. However, as fragile as it was, those days of steadily reaching new heights, crumbled.

『Actually, my marriage has been decided. And he asked me to stop going to dangerous places….』

『It's about time for me to get a real job too. It took me a while to notice, but it's the era of office workers, right!』

『Certainly, if you just want to make money by using your status, there is a more efficient way other than diving into the dungeon after all…. Since it's a good time, I wonder if I should quit too』

『Eh? Eh?』

Apparently, the members of her party left the party for various reasons one after another. Adventurers certainly can make money. But, in exchange to that, they're surrounded by danger. Moreover, depending on their fighting styles and abilities, buying the equipment and magic item that suits them will cost a lot of money. Other than that, there are also many people who don't want to be an adventurer because they don't want to not be able to communicate very well with people other than adventurers because they spend their days fighting with monsters.

At any rate, her party was disbanded for such reasons, resulting in Akari seemingly being left behind.

While I was still reorganizing the information about her situation in my mind, Akari continued to speak.

"It's not like I have a complaint about them stopping being an adventurer. In fact, they taught me a lot of important things as an adventurer, and I was also able to become stronger in a short period of time thanks to them. But that was, as a tank…!"

"Akari?"

Feeling that her atmosphere changed from the latter half of her remark, I called her name. And then,

"Listen to me, Rin."contemporary romance

"Aa, un"

Since she stared at me with such strong-willed eyes, I nodded for the time being.

"In truth, before I became an adventurer, I had always wanted to fight with swords or magic. But, in reality, I only have talent as a tank. And I was also invited to the party as a tank. That's why, until now, I don't have a choice but to continue being one…. But now it's different!"

Then, Akari puffed her small breasts out.

"When I became a solo, I started to look for a way to be accomplished as a swordsman or a magician! And what I found at that time was a title and a sword that could be obtained by capturing Kenzaki Dungeon solo! That's why, for the sake of obtaining those two, I've come all the way here—"

"And you found out that the dungeon is already gone."

"— That's right!"

With tears in her eyes, Akari answered. As usual, she really is rich in emotions. It is a little interesting to watch, though. Well, I'll never say that I think so, as I don't want her to hit me after all.

However, as expected, there is no way I could leave her like this. As follows, although a part of me wanted to keep concealing this, since many people have already known about it and… I guess it's fine if it's Akari.

"That's why you couldn't get the sword of the Nameless knight and the Nameless Swordsman title, huh."

"Yes… Wait, why do you know that? Did I say their name before?"

"You actually did. Plenty. Especially, when you were on all fours. But regardless of that, I already knew about them, though."

"I-I've said this many times but forgot about it– Wait a minute, what does that mean?"

Why do I know about them? Akari tilted her head, unable to understand the reason.

While watching her reaction, I suddenly looked at my wristwatch. Although I do want to answer her question, I don't have much time, as it was almost the time I was called to Yoizuki.

… Can't be helped.

"Akari, do you have some time after this?"

"Of course I have…"

"In that case, may I have you follow me? There is a place I have to go right now. So, let's talk while walking."

"… Alright"

At the end, Akari once again stared at the ex-site of Kenzaki Dungeon reluctantly before walking to follow me. Then, we went to Yoizuki's headquarters together.

(…. An excellent tank, huh)

And while walking, I muttered those words in my mind.
