In the Re-Estize Kingdom, within a city called E-Rantel, a man and a woman stepped into the local Adventurers' Guild.
The moment the two of them entered the building, they instantly attracted the attention of nearly everyone inside.
The reason was simple.
Both the man and the woman were strikingly attractive.
The man wore a long sword at his waist—one that clearly looked expensive at a glance. Although he carried no other obvious equipment, the quiet aura surrounding him made it clear that he was anything but ordinary.
As for the woman, she had black hair and dark eyes, with phoenix-shaped eyes and slightly wavy hair tied into a ponytail. Her appearance was breathtakingly beautiful, and she exuded the mature elegance of a refined woman.
"Hello," the man said calmly as he approached the counter.
"We're here to register as adventurers. Our party consists of two people. Please process the paperwork for us as soon as possible."
The middle-aged woman working at the guild counter froze for a moment after hearing Ren Kuroda speak.
But she quickly recovered, offering a polite professional smile before beginning to record their basic information.
Ren listed his class as Magic Caster, while Yuri Alpha registered hers as Monk.
However, after hearing their answers, the guild receptionist couldn't help but offer a cautious reminder.
"If you falsely report your profession," she said gently, "it could cause serious problems later when accepting quests."
After all, Ren carried a rather impressive-looking sword at his waist.
Yet the profession he registered wasn't Warrior, but Magic Caster.
Meanwhile, the stunning woman beside him—whose cold elegance resembled that of a mature beauty—had chosen the class Monk, a profession usually favored by heavily built fighters.
"Don't worry," Ren replied calmly.
"We truly are a Magic Caster and a Monk."
"In fact… I can demonstrate it right now."
Ren raised his hand.
"Third-Tier Magic: Maximize Magic – Lightning."
Sparks of electricity danced across the tip of his extended finger.
In the next instant—
A bolt of white lightning shot out at a speed far beyond what the naked eye could follow.
The streak of energy carved a brilliant blue arc through the air before vanishing into the distant sky.
Before the people in the guild hall had even recovered from their shock, Ren casually turned his head toward the woman behind him.
"Yuri, show them proof of your monk abilities."
"Yes, Lord—… Mr. Ren."
Yuri had been standing behind him with her hands neatly folded, resembling a perfectly trained maid.
Upon hearing Ren's instruction, she nodded respectfully and stepped forward.
She quietly walked toward a table where several adventurers were seated.
Judging by the badges hanging from their gear, they were Mithril-ranked adventurers.
Earlier, Yuri had clearly overheard them mocking the Supreme Beings of Nazarick.
They had sneered that Lord Ren looked like nothing more than a spoiled noble brat—someone with flashy appearances and a beautiful woman by his side.
And yet he had just come here to register as a rookie adventurer.
For the inhabitants of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, the two remaining Supreme Beings were not merely their leaders.
They were their faith.
Their sacred reverse scale.
Even Yuri Alpha—who possessed a rare Justice value of +150—would not show mercy toward anyone who dared insult the Supreme Beings.
According to the settings written in YGGDRASIL, the Supreme Beings were their absolute masters.
If those masters commanded them to end their own lives on the spot, the guardians and battle maids of Nazarick would obey without the slightest hesitation.
"Yuri, don't forget—we're here to register as adventurers, not to start trouble."
Ren immediately felt a surge of panic when he saw what Yuri was doing.
He had absolutely no doubt that if those Mithril-ranked adventurers had dared to say such things inside Nazarick itself, they probably wouldn't have even left behind bone fragments.
"Mr. Ren," Yuri replied calmly, "I'm merely demonstrating my abilities as a Monk."
"BOOM—!"
A thunderous explosion suddenly shook the entire Adventurers' Guild hall.
When everyone finally processed what had happened, they were left utterly stunned.
The table where the Mithril adventurers had been sitting had been instantly pulverized by Yuri's single punch.
Fragments of wood scattered across the floor.
Even the stone ground beneath the table had been crushed into a bowl-shaped crater.
As for the Mithril adventurers themselves—
They had already collapsed onto the floor in terror, their faces pale and their legs trembling uncontrollably.
Yuri Alpha remained as beautiful and composed as ever.
But now, as everyone in the hall looked at her face…
Not a single person dared to entertain even the slightest inappropriate thought.
With just that single strike, Yuri had not only proven that she was a Monk—
She had also demonstrated overwhelming strength.
Before this moment, no one present could have imagined that such a graceful and elegant woman could truly be a monk.
After all, monks were usually burly men with powerful physiques.
The class relied on physical conditioning—training the body to the point where it could withstand blades and weapons.
And from Yuri's display just now, the crowd quickly realized something else.
Not only was this woman a monk—
Her level was extremely high.
Her strength might even rival an Orichalcum-ranked adventurer…
No.
Perhaps even an Adamantite-ranked one.
"Hey—don't just stare at the beautiful woman," one adventurer whispered nervously.
"What about the guy?"
"He just cast a third-tier spell like it was nothing!"
"And the power of it was way beyond normal third-tier magic!"
"Who are these people? Are they from another country? I've never heard of someone like that in the kingdom before!"
In this world, just like in YGGDRASIL, tiered magic existed.
Spells were divided from First Tier to Tenth Tier, with anything beyond the tenth tier classified as Super-Tier Magic.
However, most people in this world could only reach the Second Tier through training.
Those capable of casting Third Tier magic were already considered geniuses.
Fifth Tier magic was something only individuals who had entered the realm of heroes could wield.
And the highest tier of magic known to be usable by humans was Sixth Tier.
Which meant that from the perspective of this world's inhabitants…
The simple spell Ren had just used—something he considered one of the weakest spells in his arsenal—
Already placed him firmly among the ranks of prodigies.
Especially considering how young he appeared.
Ren sighed quietly before placing a small pouch of coins on the counter.
"I apologize for my companion's behavior just now."
"This should cover the cost of repairing the table and the floor."
"Now that we've proven our professions aren't false… could you please process our registration?"
Although Ren felt a headache coming on because of Yuri's actions, he couldn't really scold her.
For the residents of Nazarick, he and Momonga now stood at the absolute pinnacle of existence.
Any insult directed toward them was something the inhabitants of Nazarick would never tolerate.
Besides—
Most of Nazarick's residents were heteromorphic races.
They didn't exactly harbor much goodwill toward humans to begin with.
And honestly…
The only reason those Mithril adventurers were still alive right now was because Yuri Alpha's Justice value was +150.
If Ren had brought Lupusregina Beta or Solution Epsilon instead—
Those poor adventurers probably wouldn't have lived long enough to see tomorrow's sunrise.
