Chapter 243: 13
The assassination guild branch annihilation operation resulted in many casualties, but was a success.
Fortunately, Tauro and the other members of the Dansas branch did not suffer any casualties.
On the way back to the village of Dansas.
While B-Team “Zekei” returned home a little earlier at an amazing speed, “White night” and “Black Golden Wings” were on their way home together.
“I honestly didn’t think you guys would make it this far. The reputation of “Black Gold” had been in decline since two of the main members left the group due to the mess. But it looks like the new members are excellent!”
The leader of “White night” patted Tauro on the back with a blunt remark.
“Hahaha… The current ‘Black Golden Wings’ are pretty strong too.”
Tauro said confidently with a wry smile.

The leader of “White night” rolled his eyes at Tauro’s confidence.
“I guess. In fact, when I saw you guys, I realized that the rumors were baseless and come from the lower ranks.”
He then gave his approval to the strength of Tauro’s group, the “Black Golden Wings”.
After returning to the village of Dansas, Team ‘white night’ and the ‘Black Golden Wings’ went straight to the Adventurers’ Guild to report their findings.
This unusual and unlikely combination caught the attention of the other adventurers in the guild.
Meanwhile, Chloe led the two teams to the branch manager’s office and disappeared into the room.
“… what kind of combination is that?”
“Speaking of which, I haven’t seen them for the past few days.”
“A B-rank team and an E-rank team, and that too the failed ‘Black golden Wings’ team…I don’t get it.”
“If you think about it, wouldn’t it be like the luggage carrier Tauro was chosen to support 『White night』?”
“Ah, that makes sense… No, the “White night” team has a bag with a magic storage compartment. That can’t be the reason.”

“Then, is it a coincidence?”
“If it was a coincidence, they wouldn’t have gone to the branch manager’s office together!”
While the adventurers in the room were speculating about the foolishness of the situation, a report was made in the branch manager’s office.
A report was made in the branch chief’s office while the adventurers who were present were making foolish speculations.
“With that said, this quest has been completed.”
After hearing Tauro’s report, Chloe let out a sigh,
“I’ve received a report from ‘Zekei’, but I’m really sorry Tauro-kun and the others. I didn’t know it was that dangerous… I’m sorry I let you guys in the E rank band go…”
Chloe apologized and expressed her remorse.
“No, it was a situation that we had to report, and it was my decision as team leader, so it’s not Chloe’s fault.”
“That’s right. And I’ve said it many times, these “black gold” guys did a great job. They saved the lives of everyone there. Branch manager, I’m recommending this team for promotion. They’re not a team that will languish in the E rank belt.”
Ad
The leader of “White night” confidently recommended the team for a promotion.
“Everyone in “Zekei” who reported to me earlier said the same thing. Well…you’re right. Ankh and Ragune just had an unprecedented promotion, so it can’t be sudden, but I’ll think about it.”
As for Chloe, there is also the matter of conflicts with other adventurers.
If the other adventurers, who are unaware of Tauro and his team’s achievements, think that she’s favoring Ankh and his team, who had been promoted so quickly, it would affect the credibility of the Dansas branch.
It was a difficult decision for Chloe.
A few days later.
When Tauro and his group returned from their quest as usual, and were reporting their completion at the reception, Chloe came out of the branch manager’s office and called Tauro and his group into the branch manager’s office.
“…ehm….well. There were various recommendations to me for everyone’s promotion, so I’m going to have all four of you promoted to D-. Ragune-chan, you’re going up two ranks from E, but you’ll accept, right?”
Chloe asked as she let out a big sigh.
“What? You said the other day that it couldn’t be done on short notice, right?”
“I did, but I got letters of recommendation for everyone’s promotion from the A-team “Golden Mane”, and from the head of the Daredar branch. And even a letter of recommendation in the name of the Count himself! As the head of a weak Dansas branch, I can’t hold back any longer. Also I’m sorry, but this quest is confidential, so please don’t tell anyone the reason for your promotion.”
That meant I couldn’t say that I had been promoted on merit, which is going to be a source of trouble.
But no matter what the reason, everyone was now promoted to the D rank band.
Ragune was happy that she had finally caught up with everyone else, and Aeris was happy that she had achieved one of her goals of being a D rank in a shorter period of time than she had expected.
Ankh, who has only been an adventurer for a short time, didn’t realize how great it was, but he laughed and said, “Good for you all!”
Seeing everyone like that made Tauro happy.
Ankh and Ragune were promoted at an unusually fast pace, but their abilities were real.
Tauro was satisfied that it had been proved.
Coincidentally, this day was also Tauro’s 13th birthday.

Thanks for the chapter! Finally they got promoted (considering how much they contribute in all the special requests they do). I guess being gone that long means the current adventurer’s don’t remember Tauro and Aeris’ skills during the OG team setup.
