- Main guy, I can't type his name
Shubertz Powder? he discovered his call in life is making dungeon maps, when he realized he could he thought "this is the reason I was brought to this world". Basically he unlocks the map by diving into the dungeons, and then he can use the map interface to copy it into paper. The copy is 100% accurate because he places the hologram interface on top of the paper, zooms the map to be the same size of the paper and then traces the lines, which creates a more accurate map than anyone else can in that world. He can even do that outside the dungeon, unlike most guys that do maps
He decides to keep himself a D rank adventurer, because from C rank and on, you become eligible for mandatory quests given by the state; which would get in the way of his freedom and map making destiny
Since his ability to map already gets too much attention, he decided to hide his combat ability as not to get dragged into official business. He compromised himself to work under a friend of the first girl in the guild making maps, but he didn't signed a contract with the guild, to keep the liberty of taking different jobs when he needs to. Even though the maps are signed under a different name, his identity still sort of got leaked (when in groups, he has to make copies of the map in the dungeon, and can be spotted then).
- Shaft "the black mask", his alterantive identity, he signed himself in the mercenary guild in a different town and is working under his merchant friend. The storage mode that he has can save things regardless of size and weight (the magical bags everyone use, can't); so he initally only wanted to help with transport; but after a large incident where his friend's life was at stake as well as his family, he destroyed a large bandit brigade and crushed the merchant that was pulling the strings. He becomes well known, the bad guys call him "monster", and in his entrance exam he incapacited a former A rank adventurer in an instant, the adventurer was pretty cool about it and became interested in the MC exploits, it's hinted that the adventurer will investigate records of the battles the MC is in, to gauge his ability. The MC decides to fight evil by using this identity, he feels really bad when he needs to kill, but will do so when necessary.
------- He got a "notice" of who brought him to this world (pretty much a god), which sort of stated that if he wants to live a nice life in the world, he should make a place for himself; this solves something that he was very troubled by and decides to do things to improve the world whenever he can -------
- First girl, Ashley. The apprentice guild monitor officer, saved from being killed and possibly raped by a goblin community; initially the people who order her wanted her to make sure of the MC's identity, to check if he was going to directly or indirectly cause problems to the kingdom; she quickly realized that "he is like a tourist" and the suspition was dropped
The mc had his first discrimination experience in her company which actually made her grow more attached to him; she is extremely worried about the mc and constantly advices him not to do dangerous stuff, most of the people that know her well sort of realize that she is in love, but she herself doesn't undertand it.
- Elf recepcionist : Elder sister type, is known to tease Ashley when it comes to it, she noted how unusual was for Ashley to be a backer of a new adventurer (all new adventurers need reference), she is the first to be surprised when the mc is shown to be a no mana / manuke. It's hinted that later she develops professional respect for the MC (notices he puts a good effort even though he supposedly is having a hard time without mana). Absolutely no feelings here, though she might ship Ashley in the near future
- Girl 2 & 3 : B ranked adventurers, Miche the infighter cat girl and Frau the elf mage; they were hired to work with the MC when he was sent in a away mission and he requested to the guild "people of trust that won't pry and can keep a secret"; they are members of a respected all female guild named Sazanka. Miche is super curious and high spirited and Frau is level headed and respectful, the 3 of them were to dive into a newly discovered dungeon to map things out; when the MC skills hinted the nature of the dungeon as one of few floors of high complexety, the task was then changed to 'raid & conquer' with him as a radar and 6 members of Sazanka including the first 2 girls. The MC developed a pretty friendly working relationship with everybody and they all respect their skills (the girls battle formations showed their high experience and adaptability, and the MC skills and long range style proved to be quite useful). Since the MC was pretty helpful in the dungeon run, its sort of hinted that they will contact him later if they bump into something big, the girls also known that he hide his capabilities.
At one point the MC failed to book an inn, the girls allowed them into their guild tent. The mc was quite respectful and properly dodged any lucky sukebe event (some of the girls that didn't tavel with mc complained, though
).
Totally no romance here , but I liked the work environment, specially with the MC trying to prevent Miche from noticing weird stuff, but Miche noticing and changing into full question mode
- Menea, the daughter of the merchant : She is a proper noble and a proper loli, and is getting fine education in the case she gets the chance to marry into a good family. She gets kidnapped as a follow up of a failed plan to kill her father due to his influence in the market. She, her maid and 4 other girls get kidnapped, stripped to their underwear and were to be sold to brothels when the MC raided the place in a very Metal Gear kind of way (no cardboard, sadly). From the girls, the most delicious ones were a pair of twin fox girls who are B rank adventurers, silver / golden in color; none of the girls fell for the MC, only Menea did
and all of the girls ended up working with the merchant, and technically are more indebted to him, since the merchant is helping them rebuild their lives.
