When the ground became uninhabitable due to the aftermath of the monsters and the great flood, Noah’s empire, the continent centered on the World Tree, became the last home of mankind.
The reason for the existence of transcendentals and guides was to go down to the destroyed land, create an environment for people to live in, and collect valuable resources from the corpses of dead monsters.
Above all, since industrialization began in earnest, magic tools that processed the bones, hides, and organs of demons have become indispensable necessities for mankind.
“Why? Are you itching to go down and fight monsters?”
“No.”
“But why do you look like you’re dying again?”
“If I was going to graduate

I have to spend at least a week on the ground.”
Aspiring guides who were about to graduate had to go on an expedition to gain practical experience.
It was literally like going on your own limb, but if you didn’t get a certain score from the transcendentals you were paired with on the expedition, you couldn’t become a candidate for graduation.
In order to be screened for graduation, no matter how late it was, I had to go down to the ground at seventeen or eighteen. If I were to make an analogy through memories of my previous life, would it be a kind of intern?
But I’m not a C-class guide, I’m going down as an aspiring C-class guide.
To be honest, I think it’s safe to say that it’s a death sentence.
“Hmm, I heard that the S-class child from Count McEuena family is also entering this time.”
I thought of Christine losing her temper after being pushed out by her older sisters at the bakery.
At that time, I somehow guessed that I would enter a guide school, but I never thought my prediction would come true. If it was Christine, I would be anxious to be on her team as soon as we entered school.
Due to the nature of the job of a ‘guide’, cooperation is more important than anything else, so I heard that guide training schools often teach in teams.
But why was he suddenly talking about Christine?
No way

.
“If I give some mining rights to the Bloom Mine, the Count might be able to roll his eyes”
“Are you going to bribe lady Count McEuena ?”
“And later, when the team is decided, write to me. In a week everyone will be like the tongues in your mouth.”
“Are you going to buy all the nobles who are on the same team as me?”
“And if you have to go on an expedition when you grow up, I will send a letter with the assigned unit and the list of instructors who will transfer you.”
Buying all that many people to make me suck honey?
The boy said in a cheerful tone as if it had been solved very simply.
“Then you have completed the ground expedition safely.”
In a word, a false graduation.
As explained before, many noble children go on an expedition crying desperately to become official guides recognized by the temple, and undergo graduation screening.
However, what would happen if a child who had never set foot on the ground passed the graduation examination without difficulty thanks to the influence of their superiors?
As a small elite, the world of guides and transcendentals was narrow. And no matter how much money was used to keep mouths shut, rumors will spread.
“Then, even if I try to get a job as a guide later
 No one would accept

.”
“I told you that when you graduate, I will make you my personal guide, Betty. I hate to say it twice.”
It’s a future where I graduate illegally through strong support at school, and after that, take it easy at the Duke’s Castle and receive only a guide’s salary. Looking at the conditions alone, there will be no one who refuses.
“But before, I only served as the duke’s exclusive guide for one year, and then

.”
“Yes, sign a one-year contract, then you do it on your own.”
“Everyone should know that I graduated illegally, who will sign a contract with me?”
“Then, you have no choice but to stay by my side.”
I see.
On the surface, it is packaged in a way that shows he was giving a poor child a chance to study, but this guy is trying to make me a guide with the intention of tying me to his side forever.
Now everything makes sense.
He probably noticed from the first contact with me that I was a guide with a high probability of being his companion.
In addition, unlike the original story’s Christine McEuena, status must be insignificant, and it was no problem to raise me as a guide in the name of sponsorship or talent training, and then receive guidance when he needed it.
It is understandable now why he searched the capital to find a low-class maid who had run away.
It was clear that he would be obsessed with me more now that the temple had nailed me with a 98% match rate.
‘So he was going to work hard to raise me and use me as a purifying agent?’
Sensing my nervous reaction, he unfolded the test results from the temple again.
“Look. Even if you don’t have a high level, your nature of purification itself is very suitable for me. You can stay as a dedicated guide to assist me when I am in the empire. As long as you’re my guide, I’ll make sure there’s nothing lacking in your life.”
I know. For targets with a high matching rate, the range of guiding increases even if the rating is not high.
