Watching Yoru Machi pull out one monster material after another from the tattered pack on his back and place them on the counter, Soya's expression grew increasingly astonished, until finally, she was completely stunned.

Because Yoru Machi had caused such a stir at the Adventurer's Guild before, he was already somewhat famous within the guild.

So, seeing him take out one monster material after another at this moment, many adventurers in the guild curiously gathered around.

"Good grief, this is a Shadow Lizard's tail. Even a Rank B adventurer could easily be ambushed and killed by this thing if they weren't careful. There are over ten here."

"What's a Shadow Lizard compared to that? Look at those fangs emitting a chilling aura. Those are the Frost Fangs of an Ice Python, the best material for crafting daggers. And an Ice Python is a BOSS-level monster. Even a Rank A adventurer team might not be able to take it down easily."

As Yoru Machi presented item after item of his spoils, gasps and exclamations rose from the surrounding crowd, wave after wave. The monster materials Yoru Machi brought out were all quite high-grade. For instance, the pair of Ice Python fangs alone was valuable enough to provide for an ordinary person's food and drink for ten years without worry.

As more and more adventurers gathered, and the commotion grew larger, the Guild Master, who was on the second floor chatting with his secretary about life, was once again disturbed.

However, he stormed downstairs angrily, and upon seeing the large pile of monster materials on the counter, as well as Yoru Machi, who looked travel-worn, he instantly forced a smile onto his face.

"Soya, what are you standing around for? Hurry and help Mr. Yoru Machi check the monster materials and confirm the completion of the request."

Hearing the Guild Master's shout, Soya finally snapped back to reality. She then picked up the monster materials on the counter and began to appraise them.

As a guild receptionist, outward appearance was secondary. The most important thing was the high level of her appraisal skill.

Otherwise, if the receptionist couldn't even distinguish the authenticity of the quest materials submitted by adventurers, how could she confirm whether they had completed the request?

"Shadow Lizard tails, Vampire Bat wings, Gun-Legged Spider eyes... and Ice Python fangs and hide. These are indeed materials from the monsters in that underground labyrinth. Especially that BOSS-level Ice Python. Based on the grade of these materials, there should be no problem."

With each material she picked up and appraised, Soya's astonished expression deepened. By the time she finished appraising the materials from the Ice Python, Soya was shocked to discover that Yoru Machi had actually conquered that underground labyrinth all by himself!

And excluding travel time, he had accomplished this in such a short period!

After appraising the materials for the first request, 'Conquer the Underground Labyrinth,' Soya then picked up another small pile of black monster materials on the counter. Judging by the color and aura of these materials, it was not difficult to tell that they likely came from the same monster.

However, just as Soya picked up a material that looked like a horn and used her appraisal skill on it, her composure, which had finally stabilized, was once again replaced by shock.

Seeing Soya holding a piece of black keratinous material and remaining silent, the curious adventurers around them quickly grew impatient, and they all began to ask, "Soya, what monster material is it? Hurry up and tell us!"

"Could it be a monster material even higher grade than the Ice Python? Brother Yoru Machi is going against the heavens!"

Due to the surrounding noise, Soya finally recovered from her state of shock. She then looked seriously at Yoru Machi and the Guild Master and said, "The grade of these monster materials is too high. My appraisal skill level is not enough to confirm what monster these materials dropped from..."

Hearing Soya's words, all the adventurers present, including the Guild Master, were stunned.

Soya was already the most outstanding counter staff member at the Adventurer's Guild, and her appraisal skill level was the highest. Logically, even if the 'Poisonous Giant Lizard' Yoru Machi had hunted second was higher in grade, it shouldn't have been much higher than the Ice Python.

"Give me the materials, let me appraise them."

Hearing Soya's words, the Guild Master of the Adventurer's Guild reached out and took the materials from Soya, preparing to appraise them. Before becoming the Guild Master, he had also worked as staff, so his appraisal skill level was even higher.

However, when the Guild Master took the monster materials from Soya and used his appraisal skill on them, the information that popped up almost made him drop the materials from his hand.

"Poisonous Demon Dragon... Dragon Horn?" The Guild Master's stammering voice made it difficult for those around him to hear clearly, so everyone began to impatiently urge him to speak more clearly.

However, the Guild Master, who had recovered, completely ignored the bored adventurers around him. Instead, he turned and looked seriously at Yoru Machi, asking, "This monster material, did you pick it up, or..."

"What do you mean, pick it up? I put in a lot of effort to defeat it, okay. This guy is the Poisonous Giant Lizard from your request, indeed a big lizard, just a big flying lizard."

Hearing Yoru Machi's words, the Guild Master fell silent. His gaze towards Yoru Machi was no longer one of admiration, but of complete awe.

The Poisonous Demon Dragon, an subspecies of dragon, was a top-tier BOSS-level monster even on a global scale. Yet, it had been single-handedly defeated by the young man before him! This was no longer a matter of being skilled, but simply unbelievable.

The Guild Master did not believe Yoru Machi was lying. The Poisonous Giant Lizard and the Poisonous Demon Dragon were monsters from two completely different dimensions. Yoru Machi had no reason to provoke a stronger and more dangerous Poisonous Demon Dragon for an Rank A request. Moreover, although the pile of monster materials on the counter was not large, almost every part of the dragon was present. It was too unreasonable to attribute this to good luck and finding it.

"What about the other materials? If you truly defeated the Poisonous Demon... that poisonous monster, there should be more materials from it, shouldn't there?"

The Poisonous Demon Dragon was a subspecies of dragon! Its materials were rare and highly sought-after high-grade ingredients. Although these items were Yoru Machi's private property, he could represent the guild in purchasing them.

"That guy's body was too big. Although it wasn't impossible to drag the corpse back, I thought it would be too much trouble, so I only took the materials that seemed useful, and discarded the rest by the roadside."

Yoru Machi did not have spatial equipment, and the journey was already long. He found dragging the Poisonous Demon Dragon's corpse to be a hindrance to his progress, so he discarded it halfway.

"What! You prodigal son! You discarded the hard-won Poisonous Demon Dragon like trash!"
