An Extra’s POV

"Oi, oi, oi… did you see it, though?"

As the nine students walked away from the reception, they couldn't escape the loud noise generated by the conversation of nearby Adventurers.

It was rare to see grown men gushing so much, but that was simply a testament to the exciting topic they were talking about.

"Of course! You weren't there, right?" A bald man, easily the tallest in the group, grinned very widely as he addressed a more lanky man in the group.

"Yeah… I was on a Quest."

The lanky man's flat response made it clear how he regretted his decision to go.

His Quest probably ended up a bust as well.

"The thing was huge, I tell you!" Another person in the group of five exclaimed.

"Right? Insanely huge! That was my first time seeing an A-Tier Monster in my life."

"Can't believe they caught something like that."

"I suppose that's the level of Heroic Rank Adventurers, after all. Commons like us can't begin to compare."

"Dude, speak for yourself. I'm taking the Veteran Test next week, so don't lump me in with the likes of you."

"You said that last month and ended up failing. Pfft!"

"Shut up! This time will be different!"

The students ignored the bald man's reddened face as they walked past the group and made their way up the stairs.

"… Those two were exceptional. It's reassuring to see we have two new Heroic Rank Adventurers."

Adonis, who led the group, halted for a moment after those words echoed out from one of the Adventurers.

However, it wasn't long before he continued ascending.

A few of his classmates noticed his hesitation, but most of them were too tired or engrossed in their own conversations to care.
