Plot
The sudden news of the Kibou Company being bankrupt has Minato astounded and is further informed of how the Agency rates them poorly. Due to their wages being cut bare, the employees are unable to repair or purchase the equipment they need. If they're unable to maintain a good image, they'll lose the company and their licenses. Minato suggests they use the weapons decorated in the office, however, Guide details they're all cursed weapons. All hope not lost, Guide suggests they retrieve the items that Minato's father donated to a museum. With Yutoria by his side, Minato rushes to the museum as Guide tries to inform him of something related to it that could be a problem.

Both Minato and Yutoria arrive at the museum and guided by the receptionist, they're led to a room filled with Minato's father's legacies. However, in order to be able to claim the items, the company has to pay an exorbitant inheritance tax. Afterward, the company discusses the matter at a restaurant and kick around ideas to get them out of their financial rut. After many a rejected idea, Yutoria suggests they enter a contest held by the Agency. It's unanimously agreed upon to enter it by the employees and after paying their bill they head for the Agency. At the Agency, Minato and Yutoria are elaborated on the quest details from the secretary. As they leave outside the Agency, they walk past a man named Rivar who looks forward to beating them in the Agency's quest.

On the day of the quest, the Kibou Company wait outside of the dungeon gate where the quest was to take place. Rivar confronts the group and tries to engage in a conversation with Akari who doesn't recognize him. This leads to a brief back and forth between the two, until the Agency secretary announces the quest will begin. After explaining the goal of the quest, the quest officially starts and the adventurers swarm into the dungeon. Inside the dungeon, Akari details her relationship with Rivar as they progress and takes her frustration out on the maju they encounter. Immediately, Rivar appears before the group and taunts them on how slow they were to kill the maju, but they progress forth paying him no mind.

Reaching a dead end with a quiz, Rivar tries to answer it, but gets it wrong. Minato then tries and gets the right answer and his party are transported further into the dungeon, much to Rivar's dismay. At the next quiz site, Rivar learns that Minato is the president of the Kibou Company. Acting pretentiously, Rivar boasts that his rank and his associate Valmi's rank is higher than Minato's. Furthermore, Rivar declares that if he wins the quest contest, that Akari must join his company. On the other hand, if Akari's company wins, Rivar will humor any request given to him. The terms are agreed upon and the two groups separate.
