Chapter 5: Otherworlder

Summary
Kelvin and Leo talk in the guildmaster's office. Kelvin gets frustrated that he's pushed against a wall but Gerard gives him a pep talk while Melfina and Clotho also give their support. Leo mentions he saw otherworlders like Kelvin that were summoned by the Holy Empire of Deramis to stop the future demon king. Leo makes it clear that he wants Kelvin to deal with monsters in the immediate area while the heroes focus on dealing with the future demon king. Leo makes Kelvin a deal that he'll give him a special rank increase while Leo also keeps Kelvin's secret about being a summoner. Kelvin agrees to the deal.

Claire, the keeper of the Spirit's Song Inn is overjoyed that Kelvin made it to rank B. Kelvin asks for an additional portion of food to be made for that night. Kelvin is going to the slave market to get an extra party member since Gerard nearly took him down. He arrives there only for another customer to be running away on fire. He refuses to buy the half elf on sale there much to the slave trader's dismay. According to Melfina the half elf has a Curse of the Flame Dragon King so a Sacred Bless would be enough to cure her. Kelvin makes the purchase of the slave girl.

The half elf thanks Kelvin and introduces herself as Efil. She mentions she was always being bought and sold for as long as she could remember. Kelvin removes her curse and she's overcome with joy. Back at the Spirit's Song Inn, Efil gets dressed up as a maid. Efil promises to help Kelvin as much as she can. Meanwhile in the Hermit's Cave, four adventurers retreat from a demon to alert the guild.
