My friend works at Nate
I asked him what you guys were curious about

  1. Are they really recruiting magic-types?: Yes, but also no. They’re recruiting even if you’re not a magic-type. It would be good for those who dream of being a magic swordsman to challenge it.

  2. Are they serious about the F-rank?: This is the guild leader’s decision, but they say that if you complete this course, even an F-rank can become a C-rank

  3. How many are they recruiting?: It’s not decided. The instructor will look at them and pick the ones with potential

  4. What are the benefits of being hired by the Nate Guild?: Grade increase. Even if you have no combat ability, you will be hired as an office worker

I inquired at the Nate Guild
They’re accepting unpopular classes
Necromancers, summoners, thieves, etc. As long as you have the will to handle magic, they’ll take you
I don’t have a magic skill: They said to abandon such weak thoughts
Necromancers who dreamed of a one-man army, get up
Let’s go
I’ve already submitted my application


<Express Train for Efficient Mana Handling>.
To find hidden talents and have the Yellow Magic Tower Head personally raise them, the document work team was ground to dust for a month.
Even just filtering out those with disqualifying factors like a criminal record or bad character, the work was almost paralyzed to the point where they had to hire more temporary staff.
The final competition rate… was incalculable.
In the first place, since Daisy and I were going to look at them and choose, the number of spots was not fixed.
An interview with a Constellation and a Magic Tower Head, how luxurious is that.
However, the final number of interviewees to be seen was a thousand.
A thousand.
Thanks to that, the interview was conducted over three days.
It was just a quick look, but first, Daisy filtered out the potential of their mana, and second, I, who could see souls, filtered them, so they were eliminated in droves.
“Hello! Number 487…”
“Rejected.”
“Number 479!”
“Hmm… it’s ambiguous, on the borderline, but the soul.”
“Ugh.”
“Rejected.”
“Number 887. I’m a curse-caster…”
“Pass. Seonibaek also likes you, so you pass. Here’s a necklace.”
In an instant, a thousand people were filtered.
Among them, only three passed.
One curse-caster.
One puppeteer.
One magic swordsman-aspirant.
‘All the unpopular classes have gathered.’
Curse-casters were not only shunned because of their public image, but the conditions for activating their abilities were also very difficult.
Since there were often cases where money was required for prior preparation, it was common for people to give up the path of a hunter even if their grade was high if they got a curse-type unique skill.
“Ah, hello. I’m Yoon Yul.”
A tall, skinny, gloomy man with long hair bowed his head.
It was a gloominess that looked like mold would grow just by looking at him.
He was polite, and for a curse-caster, his soul was also clean, so I picked him without hesitation.
“Kim Seoah! I’m a puppeteer! I can’t do any hunter activities yet, but it’s my dream job!”
Next was a high school girl with her hair tied up tightly.
Among puppeteers, where the purity of the soul is important, she had an overwhelmingly pure soul, so I brought her in right away.
Though her mana was a little lacking.
Puppeteers have the advantage of an overwhelming number, but they have the disadvantage of being less durable than a necromancer with the same number.
In fact, it was an ability that was as good as useless except for its numbers.
Most of the people who handled puppets would just go into the tailoring field.
Finally, the magic swordsman-aspirant.
“I’ve been working as a tanker, I’m Lee Won…”
The man with a buzz cut had a gloomy voice, unlike his large build.
It was pitiful to see how intimidated he was.
Although a magic swordsman is a dream for many people, many people find the magic formulas difficult.
Or they find swordsmanship difficult.
In the case of those who are born with a unique skill that encompasses both, they often give up quickly due to their ambiguous growth limit and their complex ability.
But if raised well, it was a class that could cut down even the Sword Masters of the Lexas Empire in a single blow.
I thought I should pick at least one, but I didn’t know I would only be able to pick one.
Yeon Taeseon leaned against the door of the training hall.
I didn’t intend to make such a big deal out of it, but the reason I posted the announcement was because of Yeon Taeseon.


A while ago.
“You two are always stuck together.”
“Hello, Yeon Taeseon. Please keep your business brief. The documents are on the left. So this part, it’s better to twist the explanation like this.”
“Seonibaek is a genius.”
The documents on the left were slowly piling up, and at some point, they had formed a mountain.
Whether Yeon Taeseon came or not, we had been cooped up in Daisy’s room for several days, preparing for a special lecture, when the regressor suddenly appeared.
He said bluntly.
“Do you remember I told you about the Constellation War?”
“I remember, right? You told me.”
I answered without even turning my head.
His voice was getting more and more sullen.
Daisy was glancing at him, but I told him to ignore it, as it wasn’t the first or second time that that Regressor had suddenly gotten into a bad mood.
As if he was even more annoyed by that, a rough voice fell on my head.
“There aren’t enough talented people. We need to raise more.”
Huh?
I blinked and looked up.
A handsome man with a strong jawline and a chiseled face was looking down at me.
Our gazes met.
I deliberately asked innocently.
“Suddenly?”
Yeon Taeseon heard that and, with a complicated expression, continued.
“It’s a good thing you got one over on The Crow’s Ruins, but…”
“So?”
“He’s never been this provoked before.”
He sighed, saying that he couldn’t predict how that narrow-minded guy would react now.
“The Constellation War might happen sooner, so we need talented people.”
We can’t just expect to hit the lottery with a contract.
Even if I’m a top-tier Constellation, there’s a limit to that.
With a tone that said he didn’t like it, but he had no choice, he said.
“We have to raise them.”
“We?”
“We. This applies to all members of the Nate Guild.”
Yeon Taeseon’s gaze, as he pointed out what we had forgotten because of the peace, was quite serious.
“Don’t underestimate the Constellation War.”
And then, he specified our plan in more detail and on a larger scale, and roughly scribbled it down on a piece of paper.
Then he picked up the paper and left the room, saying he would implement it.
The last words he left behind echoed particularly loudly in my ears, it must have been my imagination.
“We, I… don’t want to lose my Constellation.”
