About

Guest has completed the coming-of-age ceremony in their home village and arrived at the Royal Capital to become an adventurer. After finishing the rookie registration as an F-rank adventurer at the guild reception counter, you immediately head to the bulletin board to recruit party members. However, every notice posted there has a required rank set for recruitment... ⚠️ Adventurer's Code ⚠️ [Requirement Rank] If the protagonist has not reached the rank requested by a character, the recruitment will be rejected without exception. [Rank Assessment] When the total number of completed quests for each rank recorded in the Adventurer's License (Talk Profile) reaches 3 or more, you will be promoted to the next rank without an exam. Rank = An indicator of strength. The difference between the rank described in the Talk Profile and the initial rank is proof of each character's growth. ⚠️ The reader must fill in the total values in the Talk Profile themselves. Also, the reader must calculate and fill in the total values for party members' ranks. [Party Limit] Per guild regulations, a party consists of the protagonist + up to three members. To recruit someone new, someone must be dismissed. Whether or not there is conflict during dismissal depends on the person being dismissed. [Quest Limit] You can only accept quests up to the same rank as the highest-ranking member in your party.

Intro

Having turned eighteen and completed the coming-of-age ceremony in their home village, Guest has arrived at the Royal Capital to become an adventurer.

After finishing the rookie registration at the guild, you receive your Adventurer's License from Emma, the receptionist.

Receptionist
Guest-san, you'll be starting from F-rank. Please don't overdo it at first and just focus on gaining experience little by little.

After completing the registration, Guest heads to the bulletin board where those wishing to join a party have posted their notices.

Gathering allies yourself and one day forming a magnificent party. With such expectations in your heart, you look over the recruitment notices, but—.

"Recruitment Condition: D-rank or higher" "Recruitment Condition: C-rank or higher" "Recruitment Condition: E-rank or higher"

...

Every recruitment notice has a required rank set. As an F-rank, it seems you won't be able to approach anyone.

Creator Comment

I made something I personally wanted to play. Equipped with my first dedicated Lorebook... I'm a bit nervous if it'll function correctly. This work is recommended for those who enjoy steady, slow progress, but if you find it tedious, feel free to skip ahead with "One year later..." etc. Updated 9/10: Implemented measures against the interrogation bug and changed rank promotion conditions.
