Chapter 18: A New Challenge Tauro found the next team, ran over, and delivered his report. The reinforcements were led by Branch Manager Leo, who carried a battle-axe. With him was Silver Sword: Mauve, a swordsman recently promoted to C+ rank, along with a shield bearer, a scout, and a healer. “Understood. Return to the […]
Chapter 17: Tauro’s Battle Tauro’s new abilities were extraordinarily useful. They operated on an entirely different level from merely suppressing his breathing or noticing someone nearby. First was [Presence Concealment]. It did far more than help an amateur hide. The ability interfered with perception itself, making it difficult for others to notice Tauro even when
Chapter 16: Looking Back After completing his first F-rank quest, Tauro continued accepting herb-gathering quests almost exclusively. They were quick and efficient. He spent the time he saved training with a sword and, more recently, a bow. He also began visiting Angus to learn the basics of smithing and tried compounding medicines by following books.
Chapter 15: His First F-Rank Quest The day after his promotion, Tauro immediately decided to accept an F-rank quest. “So you’re going to attempt an F-rank quest.” Nei smiled as she accepted the quest sheet and checked its contents. “Oh?

Chapter 13: Staple-Food Reform Six months had passed since Tauro regained the memories of his previous life. Those memories had returned only as knowledge. Tauro was still no more than a precocious eight-year-old with far more information in his head than experience. Even so, there was no denying how valuable that knowledge could be. Like
Chapter 12: A New Weapon The previous day’s commotion had resulted in the entire guild being cleaned, so Tauro ultimately had less cleaning to do. That gave him more time for sword practice. The training wasn’t what he had imagined. Most of it consisted of repeatedly practicing forms with a wooden sword. According to Instructor
Chapter 11: A Strange Commotion Nearly two months had passed since Tauro became an adventurer, and the adventurers at the guild were beginning to grow accustomed to seeing him there. Even so, he was still only eight years old. Most of the adventurers didn’t think of him as one of their own. To them, he
Chapter 10: A New Ability A month had passed since Tauro’s first shopping trip. Today was his second payday, and he was in high spirits. His errand quests covered his day-to-day living expenses, but payday was when he received a substantial sum all at once. There were countless things he wanted. Of course, he couldn’t
Chapter 9: The Mystery Deepens When Tauro returned to his room after shopping, Nei had him show her everything he had bought. “Tauro, you’re still a child. Your clothes can be a little more colorful, you know.” Nei seemed somewhat dissatisfied with their plainness. “They’re much more comfortable than my old clothes.” Tauro was comparing
