When Cui Ciyou took the pair of Redfang Serpent fangs, each over a meter long and still flickering with an ominous scarlet glow,
and gently laid them on the Adventurers' Guild's heavy wooden counter as proof of the kill,
the entire noisy hall fell into an eerie silence.
Behind the counter, the beautiful, worldly Demonfolk receptionist
had her professional smile freeze solid.
Her eyes widened like saucers.
She pointed a trembling finger at the fangs, which radiated the terrifying aura of an A-rank monster.
Then she stammered:
"Th-this... is this an A-rank Redfang Serpent?"
"You... you killed it?"
This was no small matter.
Before long, several veteran appraisers and senior guild officials were urgently summoned.
After their repeated, meticulous inspections,
and confirmation of the residual magic power fluctuations on the fangs,
the entire guild erupted!
"My gods, a B-rank party took down an A-rank monster all by themselves!"
"Without a scratch! I saw them when they came back-even their clothes weren't torn!"
"The Saviors... where on earth did this party come from? Are they really newcomers?"
Under the countless adventurers' gazes, filled with a tangled mix of envy, jealousy, awe, and fervor,
the guild officials announced on the spot that the originally B-rank commission would officially be upgraded to A-rank.
The reward was also multiplied fivefold from the original ten Iron Coins.
It became five hefty Green Ore Coins.
But that wasn't all.
On the strength of the thirty B-rank missions they had completed over the past month or so,
combined with their spectacular achievement in this final, earth-shattering A-rank mission,
the Saviors' party rank made another tremendous leap.
Their Team Badge and individual identification badges
were also officially replaced with ones forged from rare mithril,
engraved with golden patterns symbolizing glory and strength-A-rank badges!
A-rank-a high-ranking adventurer party!
