A peerless killer possessing a cat girl assassin from another world

"Arrogant? I specifically simulated that based on your current fighting style..."

"Are you sure you're not mistaken? A ruby... that's impossible. You'd be more likely to be simulating silver or gold..."

"Could it be that I remembered it wrong?"

In an instant, Lin Mo suddenly realized that this sword might lack some common sense in certain aspects.

Even an outsider like him could figure out that rubies are far more expensive than gold, and the status they represent must be higher than that of gold. How could he not have thought of that?

"Um, let me ask you a question... Have you ever seen adventurer's tokens of any rank other than rubies?"

"...Of course! I've seen sapphires and emeralds too."

"What about other things besides gemstones?"

The holy sword fell silent.

"The case is solved. Because you've only ever seen this high-level proof, you can only simulate the same material."

"...That's not the point. Since you say a ruby ​​isn't suitable, then you'd better find a suitable one for me."

"Okay, I'll try to find one for you right away."

Lin Mo sensed the evasiveness in Jian's words and said helplessly.

Turning around, I saw another group of adventurers waiting at the city gate, looking around curiously. It was obvious they were there to take on a job.

Seemingly inspired by what he had just heard, Lin Mo walked over to the group and asked directly:

"Brothers, looking for work? I have a good job here."

When the leader saw Lin Mo, who was so well-equipped, approach him, he immediately believed him to be mostly right.

"Brother, what kind of job? We're all C-level, we can do anything."

"A C grade..."

Lin Mo made a gesture, looking the man up and down.

"It's not that I don't believe you, brother, but looking at your gear, it doesn't seem like C-grade at all."

Upon hearing this, the man immediately panicked, fearing he might miss out on a big deal, and pulled out his adventurer's badge from his pocket.

Silver Badge...

Upon seeing this, Lin Mo finally had a better understanding of the situation.

In any world, classifications like gold, silver, bronze, and iron are quite common.

Then, Lin Mo pretended to be embarrassed, and then said regretfully:

"Although you guys are all C-level, I believe you definitely have the ability, but I've taken on a big job this time. If I weren't B-level, I'm afraid... my life would be in danger."

"this......"

Lin Mo reached out and patted the man on the shoulder.

"For your own good, brothers, I hope you can find suitable jobs."

He then turned around, leaving behind a dashing silhouette and several bewildered adventurers.

......

"Fine, you'll use any platitudes you want, you're such a drama queen..."

"I got a little interested... so I gave it a try."

"More important than that, did you see that badge in his hand just now?"

"Now I see, so C-rank is actually silver-rank... You should have said so earlier."

"Let's simulate this; it's better to make it more mainstream."

Soon, with his new "ID card," Lin Mo began a new round of "job applications."

Hey, kid over there!

Suddenly, Lin Mo heard a shout.

"That's right, I'm calling you, come here."

A well-dressed man looked at Lin Mo with a smile and waved.

"Judging from your appearance, you must be an experienced adventurer. I have a quest here, and we're just one person short. Would you be interested?"

Unlike the adventurers who were waiting for jobs before, this one was clearly an employer or something similar.

"Tell me about it."

Lin Mo tried his best to remain aloof, appearing like an adventurer who had actually been in this line of work for some time.

"Ahem, I see. I'm a Sova... a former Sova... and now an architect in Friedham..."

“I was recently asked to go to the desert to work for a while... so I was thinking of hiring a few guards.”

"We've got enough people, just one more to go. I see you're all alone but well-equipped, so you must be a skilled fighter. That's why I'd like to invite you to join us. Of course, the pay is negotiable."

Seeing the doubt on Lin Mo's face, the man assumed it was a questioning of his legitimacy and continued to explain:

"Please believe me. Because of the urgency, I have to leave as quickly as possible. But we do have commissions posted by the guild, and they are absolutely legitimate."

As he spoke, someone beside him showed the commission to Lin Mo.

"A guild? So there's a legitimate place to accept quests... I knew I shouldn't have come here; it makes me feel like I'm doing shady work..."

Lin Mo couldn't help but complain.

"A guild, an adventurer's guild... So it turns out it doesn't need a nation, it doesn't need the emperor's approval..."

Lin Mo didn't hear the Holy Sword's mutterings, but instead said to the man:

"Hmm, no problem for me. The key question is, what are your requirements for joining you?"

"...No requirements, buddy, if you're willing, we can leave right now."

"But just to be on the safe side, I'll ask you one more time, buddy, you...?"

Do you have a Grade C?

......

Time returns to the present.

Compared to my last visit to Friedham, without Behemoth's disturbances, Muchashar was incredibly peaceful, with only a gentle breeze stirring up a few wisps of sand.

Moreover, compared to the scorching summer when we first set off, it is now late autumn and winter is approaching. Even in the desert region, the temperature has dropped slightly.

So after entering the desert, the four of them felt pretty good, and even Fiona didn't complain much.

"It turns out that this desert has a unique scenery... Last time I came, there were sandstorms everywhere, and I couldn't see anything."

Beatrice exclaimed.

"Come on, what's so interesting about sand?"

That being said, Fiona, who grew up by the sea, showed no less interest than Beatrice.

"Instead of this, what about the little thing we're looking for?"

"Um......"

Eve glanced at the collar.

"Wuyue, what do you think is going on?"

The directional light on the collar was now shaking violently, sometimes to the left and sometimes to the right.

"The magic doesn't fail, which can only mean..."

"It is moving at high speed."

"We are very close to it."

But as soon as he said that, the light on the collar suddenly stopped shimmering and began to grow brighter and brighter.

"This is......"

"It's getting closer to us."

The four of them looked up and stared straight ahead.

Despite the sweltering heat and blurred vision, a figure could still be seen, kicking up dust as it flew toward them like an arrow.
