Reincarnated Hero System-Chapter 226 Becoming C-Rank

"10%? Are you for real?

Even if you wanted to lower it, 10% is too low. Sell it to us for 22%."

The young hero narrowed his eyes at the man before replying.

"12%."

"20% Can't go any lower."

,m "14% Can't go any higher."

"This kid...Fine, 19%."

"This old man. Fine 15%."

The moment the '15%' left Evan's mouth, the vice guild master suddenly revealed a bright smile as he replied.

"That was my goal from the start."

"Huh?"

He didn't wait for Evan to finish computing his words and instantly turned to the receptionist and spoke.

"15%. Put that down quick."

"Oy! This old man!"

"That's how you do business kid."

The vice guild master laughed as he spoke, causing wry smiles to form on the faces of the others present.

One of the dismantlers came up to Evan and patted him on the shoulder before saying.

"He's the second son of a Merchant company who was raised as a backup in case his older brother couldn't inherit the company.

Give up, you're no match for him."

After the little negotiation that need in the guild's favour, Evan ended up leaving the guild hall with a lot more money than he entered with, however, his mood was quite sour.

However, he quickly remembered that he hadn't changed his party name and ran back into the guild building to change it, completely forgetting about the previous issue as it wasn't important.

After changing the party name from the previously arbitrarily decided 'Rangers' to 'Anomalies', he then left the guild and proceeded to move over to his other destinations.

By the time he had returned to the inn after the day's errands, it was night time and he was quite exhausted, mentally.

'Those dressmakers really seem to like sticking their noses into other people's love lives.'

He facepalmed as he remembered the over-enthusiastic set f tailors he met earlier before informing Eliza and Pride about the guild master' arrangements.

"So that's about it.

With that, we've successfully skipped through all the processes required for the 'C' rank and gave gotten ourselves a recommendation for B-rank."

The young hero summarized how he ended up negotiating for an extra benefit when he went back to change the party name while yawning lightly and lethargically leaning on Eliza's shoulder.

Such a casual action that would have normally not caused any issues before made the battle priestess tense up, an effect of Evan's actions earlier in the day.

However, the young hero wanted nothing more than to sleep at this point as his mental exhaustion was at its peak due to dealing with the overenthusiastic dressmakers in the afternoon.

"Oh, and about those winter coats. I got the fur pelts from the guild so we can stop by a dress shop and get our measurements taken on the way back."

Evan spoke to Pride as he covered his mouth while yawning once more, before standing up and waving them off.

"I'm going to my room. Sleep calls."

Leaving those words, he left the room, leaving the stunned Eliza and Pride who just sighed in exasperation.

◇ ◇ ◇

The next day, the trio made their way over to the guild and dealt with all the rank updating issues, before making their way over to the tailors to get their measurements taken for the outfits Evan and Pride wanted to get made.

Eliza originally just followed them because she had nothing to do at the time but Evan ended up talking her into having one made for herself.

While she was muttering something about it being completely unnecessary, she failed to notice the signals that Evan and the tailor measuring her were exchanging with each other.

After that, Pride went back to the library to bury herself in books while Evan went to meet Gavin and get his help regarding some hidden pieces like the 'Doubler' that we scattered around Kasteblum.

As for Eliza, she decided to take another tour around Kasteblum since she was quite free, but it somehow ended up with her scouting potential date spots in the city.

Like so, the week passed as the group decided to take a well-deserved break from monster hunting and levelling up, indulging in their hobbies or in other pastimes.

Evan made plans for them to begin their journey to Osto where they would enter the 'Tower of Avarice' to retrieve Pride's brother, the 'Demon of Greed'.

He scheduled the trip to be right after the day of his date with Eliza, something that drew closer faster than even he had expected.

By the time the two parties involved realised it, the weekend had arrived and the short-awaited say of the date had arrived.

January 29th

Year 1052

Evan was looking through a magazine he bought from a nearby stand as he awaited his companion for the day's planned activities.

While the boy looked calm on the outside, he was actually a bit nervous on the inside and was only using the contents of the magazine as a means to distract himself.

The young hero was casually dressed in casual black jean trousers with a white turtleneck shirt and his newly acquired grey-coloured wolf fur winter coat.

The black glove-covered hands that were flipping through the pages of the magazine froze as the young hero sensed a familiar presence incoming.

He turned his gaze upwards and his grey eyes locked eyes with the sapphire-coloured eyes of his companion for the day.

She was dressed in a lovely pure white knee-length dress that was cinched at the waist with a wide belt and long black stockings. A touch of warmth was added to her outfit with the addition of her black wolf fur coat.

Her long waist length blonde hair was tied up in a ponytail that swayed slightly with each step she took.

Seeing her, Evan was dumbstruck for a split second, with his eyes narrowing into a glare tinged with a little bit of bloodlust in the next as he swept his gaze around at the passer-bys who were looking at her with slacked jaws.

'I think I kind of understood why Pride blinded those people a thousand years ago.'

He heaved a sigh and calmed himself before getting up from his seat and walking up to Eliza with a bright smile on his face.

"Hey."
