A Girl Who Was Told “You Have No Talent” Turned Out To Be A Talented Monster

The quality of the work that could be undertaken would inevitably increase at Rank 3. Not only could they receive subjugation requests, but they could also receive requests from important people in various fields.

Not all important figures were as generous as De Mile. Most of them required the adventure to be of at least Rank 3 to be able to accept their tasks.

If these important figures took a liking to you, it would be a good chance to move up the ladder. Some adventurers were aiming for riches, and Rank 3 was the gateway to that dream.

“Now you are officially Rank 3. Congratulations.” (Catalana)

“Thank you very much! I’ll do my best in my adventures!” (Litty)

“Adventure…”

The branch manager of Royal Capital’s Adventurer’s Guild looked at the two with a distant look in his eyes. These were bitter words for the old man, who had once been trusted by the royal family with a distinguished record of achievement.

He had seen hell in the unexplored areas, where his friends had been exterminated. Even as the sole survivor, he was reduced to a mere shell of a man.

After taking his time to slowly recover his mind and body, he turned down an invitation from the headquarters and chose to live out the rest of his life as a branch manager. He had already decided to go into semi-retirement, but how would he view Litty?

“‘You should not continue…’ is what I would have said. However, I can see it in your eyes that… I can’t change your way of life with my words. Guho, guho, guho!” (Branch Manager)

“Are you all right?” (Catalana)

Catalana rubbed his back to calm him down, but his breathing was ragged.

“Haaah… haaah…” (Branch Manager)

“Um… are you feeling ill?” (Litty)

“Nothing to worry about. It’s just the result of my recklessness when I was young. But even if I was told back then not to do that, I wouldn’t have listened.” (Branch Manager)

“It seems like you’ve had a tough adventure…” (Litty)

No matter how accomplished and capable a person was, they would still grow old.

They could not be active forever. This old man had just now shown Litty that reality. It would not normally be surprising if she shied away from the idea, but Litty remained the same.

“In the first place…it is a mistake to think that one can change others with simple words. Particularly to people like you and me when I was younger. Even if I told you to stop your adventure, you won’t listen to me anyway. Am I right?” (Branch Manager)

“Yes. It is also part of an adventure for someone as strong as the branch manager to try and stop going through a difficult adventure. It makes me more determined.” (Litty)

“I’m glad to hear that. It is worth showing my ugly self to you.” (Branch Manager)

“That’s strange. If it had been your usual self, you would have stopped them, right?” (Catalana)

Catalana’s mischievous comment made the branch manager chuckle as he responded with, “At Rank 3, even if one doesn’t do anything crazy, their income is more than enough for them to start a business or live a normal life.”

Starting a business could be a good idea. Or start a family. If things go beyond what normal people could do, no ordinary person would attempt it.

It was normal for those adventurers to settle down, like the instructors of the Swordsman’s Guild. As branch managers, they were the ones who wanted to show that there were other ways.

“Catalana, I’m an adventurer like you, but we don’t have the same point of view. That is something that can’t be changed so it can’t be helped…” (Branch Manager)

“That’s terrible. You make it sound like I’m some kind of freak.”

Litty wanted to interject, but Kuufa did her best to stop her, determined not to say anything from the start. She was so nervous that she was even wondering if it would end soon.

“Litty, you can’t do anything but be an adventurer. I suppose.”

“I think so myself.”

“That girl over there…well, you don’t have to be impatient.”

Kuufa did not understand the meaning of the branch manager’s words, and she was not even confident that she could continue as an adventurer with the demon now gone.

She was not that passionate about being an adventurer, unlike Litty, so the branch manager saw right through her.

“But then again, you have a good grasp of the current situation, don’t you, you two?” (Catalana)

“As you get older and less mobile, your eyes become more discerning. And then you get bored and start worrying about trivial things.” (Branch Manager)

“I think it’s good to train the eyes.” Litty

“Wahahaha, I would never get tired of talking to you!”

The branch manager wondered when was the last time he had laughed. Litty, who projected his past and to which he even tried to hold back by showing the results of his adventures, was not affected at all.

At the same time, he secretly hoped that he would not hear the news of this child’s demise.

“Branch Manager, I have a question. How is the Summoner’s Guild doing right now?” (Catalana)

“Catalana, what exactly are you talking about?” (Branch Manager)

“Is that place not even teaching people about the dangers of the demons and how to handle them?” (Catalana)

“What?” (Branch Manager)

Kuufa looked up and saw their faces. As the conversation progressed, the branch manager’s face gradually became stern, and Catalana’s as well. Kuufa, scared, looked down again.

“Kuufa-chan, how did the guys from the Summoner’s Guild look when they found out you could summon a demon?” (Catalana)

“They seemed happy, and I was… happy, too.” (Kuufa)

“I see…” (Catalana)

Catalana got up from her seat and took Kuufa’s hand.

“Kuufa-chan… shall we go with you to the Summoner’s Guild?” (Catalana)

“Eh, eh, eeh?” (Kuufa)

“Um! I actually have something to do there as well!” (Litty)

“Litty-chan? Oh, okay. It’s actually perfect if you come along.” (Catalana)

Litty felt a chill when she saw the freezing blank expression on Catalana’s face for just a moment. Litty sensed that it was anger beyond description.

Litty could not speculate on the details. All she knew was that the Summoner’s Guild was the reason for Catalana’s anger.
