When Tenma descended the stairs—

"Over here! Over here!"
Leaf’s voice called out.

Looking in the direction of the voice, Tenma saw Leaf standing and waving her hands enthusiastically to get his attention. He made his way over to the table where she was seated.

The table was already lined with an array of dishes—salads, grilled skewers, fried chicken, steak, and more. The sight of all the delicious food made Tenma feel a strong urge to use Appraisal, but he held back.

This was a world where some people could detect the activation of magic. Carelessly casting a spell could be dangerous. Fearing that risk, Tenma decided not to use Appraisal.

“Tonight’s a celebration for you, Tenma-kun. Enjoy yourself! We’ve got ale, mead, and wine—what’ll it be?”

“...Do you have anything non-alcoholic?”

“We do. But you’re old enough to drink, aren’t you? You’re an adventurer now.”

According to Leaf, becoming an adventurer was synonymous with reaching adulthood. The reasoning was that being an adventurer meant taking full responsibility for your own life. Hearing that, Tenma nodded in agreement—it was a sound way of thinking.

“Then… once everyone’s here, I’ll have an ale.”

Just as he replied, a voice called from behind.

“Me and Mario will have ale too.”

“You’re late, Alf!”

Once everyone from Great Serpent had taken their seats and the drinks were served—

“To Tenma’s new beginning—cheers!”

“Cheers!”

Alf led the toast. Tenma raised his glass and took his very first sip of alcohol. The ale was warm, but its rich aroma filled his mouth. If it were cold, it would probably taste even better, he thought.

Everyone began eating from the spread. Alf tore into a steak, Mario picked up a skewer, and Leaf stuffed a piece of fried chicken into her mouth. Tenma started with the salad—the crisp texture was pleasant. Then he tried the fried chicken. It was well-seasoned and tasty even though it had cooled down.

After that, Tenma enjoyed the meal with the Great Serpent party.

By the time both he and the others were full, a towering pile of empty plates had formed, just like something out of a manga.

Satisfied with the meal, they ordered more drinks and some light snacks.

“Tenma, did Garf explain how the guild card works?” Alf asked.

Tenma answered honestly that Garf had told him, “Ask Alf.”

“Tch, I figured as much. That sounds like Garf, alright. So, Tenma—what’s your job class? You’re that good with a sword, so you must be a Swordsman, right?”

“It didn’t say Swordsman. It said… Magic Swordsman.”

“Seriously? Lemme see that card… Huh. You’re right.”

Everyone from Great Serpent took turns examining Tenma’s guild card.

“Tenma. Magic Swordsman is a high-tier class—a step above Swordsman. It’s usually only seen from D-rank adventurers and up. It appears for people who can use both swords and magic. So that means… you’ve got some decent magic ability too.”

“Can you not choose your own class?” Tenma asked.

The party members nodded and explained.

Class selection is based on the results of Appraisal, as well as your stats and rank. Classes are broadly divided into:

Combat Classes:

  • Swordsman

  • Spearman

  • Pugilist

  • Warrior

  • Knight

  • Shieldbearer

  • Archer
    etc.

Magic Classes:

  • Sage

  • Magician

  • Sorcerer

  • Mage

  • Scholar

  • Healer

Special Classes:

  • Thief

  • Spy

  • Assassin

  • Beast Tamer

  • Summoner

  • Alchemist

  • Enchanter

  • Hexer
    etc.

Confirmed Advanced Classes (per Adventurers' Guild records):

  • Swordsman ⇒ Hardblade, Magic Swordsman, Striker

  • ⇒ Evolve into: Swordmaster, Magiblade, Blade Fist, Bladesmith, Sword King, Sword Saint

  • Archer ⇒ Hunter, Quickshot, Bowman

  • ⇒ Evolve into: Ranger, Scattershot, Sniper, Matagi, Bow Saint

Note: Magic classes follow classifications from the Magician’s Guild. No advanced classes have been confirmed for Special Classes.

“By the way, I’m a Hardblade. Leaf’s a Bowman. It’s said that you can’t move up to a higher class unless your rank increases too. Still, even if you hit A-rank, it doesn’t mean you’ll automatically reach a top-tier class.”

“I see… I heard Alf-san is B-rank. Leaf-san, may I ask what your rank is?”

“I don’t mind. I’m C-rank. So is this guy,” she said, pointing at Mario.

“Don’t point at people… I’m C-rank too. My class is Magician. I’m already a bit too old to get much stronger.”

According to Mario, you can only add new magical attributes until around the age of 25. After that, it becomes impossible to gain more. That’s why the Magician’s Guild actively scouts for talented individuals early. There’s even a record of Gomena’s youngest guild member being just five years old.

Incidentally, both Mario and Alf were 25 years old. Leaf, Mario added, was 22.

Tenma hadn’t noticed it, but Mario had been silently enduring the pain of a sharp kick to the shin from Leaf for revealing her age.
