T/N: First of all, apologies. I was sick and ended up being lazy after that. I will be back to tanslating in full force. I look forward to your continued suport m(_ _)m

One afternoon, when the cold winter weather started to cease, Lu and I were called by Tabuchi-san and we went to the old castle.
“I am sorry for the troubling you despite the busy state you might have been in.”
“Good Afternoon!”
“Western Beast-sama of the Four Heavens, I am extremely delighted to be in your presence.”
「Yea」(T/N: Lu is just nodding his head, probably.)
“I requested your presence here today because there is something I wanted to consult you about. As a matter of fact, Marshe has finally seen the way to implement a new administration system.”
“Wow! Congratulations!”
“But before that, I’m trying to revive the Adventurers Guild.”
That’s right. They would have to gather a lot of people to properly recover. And Adventurers Guilds are indispensable to operate fairly and honestly.
“I want you to give me advice on that topic.”
“Umm, aren’t the former guild staffs still here?”
Marshe’s Adventurers Guild was disbanded because of the Royal family, not the Guilds’ staffs.
“Of course, most of the staffs would have been doing their tasks seriously, but even so, the Guild here in Tokyun, the head of Marshe’s Adventurers Guild, in order to get on the good side of the royal family, had leaked the information about Serafiona-sama.”
I see, the Guild here was the one involved in that incident.
“In that case, how about we do it in 3 steps? Call for applicants, then first, they will have a written test on general knowledge and arithmetics, then they will face an interview from me, the Sacred Beast and Tabuchi-san. Then finally, a general election to choose the Guild Master!”
Then they can buy a CD.
(T/N: In Japanese promo events, like in Idol groups’ meetings and such, they would be selling CD’s after such events. I think Sera is pointing out how they only have to sell CDs now to make it be like one of such events. Thank you very much to Draakon from NU for your help)
“Compared to the practise from before

 it’s quite strict. And I don’t know if people will gather or not
”
“I think this idea is fine. And if you are being this strict, you’ll be able to proudly proclaim that Marshe Guild has been reborn.”
“I see.”
“Whether people will gather or not, I think it depends on whether there is money to be gained from this or not. So what I’m saying is, if they would be able to receive stable incomes, people would gather!”
“Yeah, that’s painfully-true. But of course we don’t have that much money to spare. So I just have to work hard to provide them lunch and help them with the reconstruction for now
 Or that may just be my idealistic thoughts.”
Idealistic thoughts he said! He does seem like the type who works for his idealistic thoughts till there are bags under his eyes.
“<Appraisal>”
I chanted in my heart, Tabuchi-san glows blue.
「Hou, Sera, that’s a useful new magic. Tell me about it more later.」
Tabuchi (Supporter of the New Government, Former Minister of Marshe Kingdom)
Condition: Chronic fatigue, lack of sleep, on the verge of death from overwork
Skills: <Earth magic>, <Fire magic>, One who experienced many hardships
Hmmm 
 He had ‘One who experienced many hardships’ in his skills list
 It makes me wanna cry.
“In that case, let me pitch in and help!”
I took out a brown spherical object from my <magic box>.
「Sera?」
“This is a fossil of about 10,000 years old that Older Brother, Lalouza Granzeus, who has been gaining popularity recently as an explorer and rare-books collector, dug out of an iceberg. It’s the only one of its kind! The only one in the world!”
「That’s not
」
“It is in a very good condition. You can even smell the scent of the prehistoric era from it by simply sniffing it lightly!”
「That’s wrong
 I don’t smell anything!」
“Let’s put this up for auction and use the proceeds to fund the Guild for the time being!”
「Huh? Would it even sell!?」
“Lu? There are always some enthusiastic fellows in the world at any time. Just wait and see!”
Later, it sold for 200 million gold coins!
ăƒŒ
Adventurers Guild staff recruitment! Applicants accepted from throughout the country! One year salary guaranteed! We will continue to do our best even in the years following it! Come out, rookies! Aim for the title of a Hero!
Such fraudulent advertisements spread throughout the country. About 4000 applicants gathered.
As per my suggestion, written tests were conducted first and the number reduced to about 100 people.
And today, they will be narrowed down to about 50 people once again after the interview. For the time being, they will be divided into groups of 10 spread out over 5 places across the country of Marshe. Then they will select 5 Guild Masters through a general election.
(T/N: There will be 5 Adventurers Guild in Marshe apparently)
The applicants will be coming in front of us― Me and (Lu and) Tabuchi-san, the judges, in order to appeal themselves.
I suddenly recall the auditions of some Tv programmes from my previous life.
There was an awesome obaa-san from the countryside who sang with a Goddess-like voice, right?
“Entry number one, please come in!”
The presenter is, of course, Tabachi-san’s eternal aide ― Yamada-kun.
A middle-aged man, who seems to be quite a brilliant person, starts talking about how he had been a guild staff before, and that he has experience.
「Sera, this guy, he has a black heart. He’s trying to eat up fledgling adventurers.」
-ding-!
I immediately put an end to it by ringing a bell once!
“Yes, thank you for your hard work. Next, entry number 2, please come in―!”
“How
!? We can proceed quickly thanks to you!”
Tabuchi-san is delighted!
No. 2 is a young man with his hair parted to one side, in the prime of his life. He was once a civilian in the kingdom and is good at arithmetic.
「This guy had killed people before. And only for trivial reasons at that.」
-ding-!
“Haa, such bad luck. Are there only people like this left in this country?”
“It’s probably because
 those with sincerity had already left the country
”
Tabuchi-san is about to cry!
“S-sorry! There’s still a lot more to come! Yamada-kun! N-next, let’s carry on!”
“Yes, next, entry number 3, please come in.”
They got sorted out quickly based on the interviews, Lu’s suggestions, and my ω<)
