"Material Analysis is rare. Very rare. And the level of detail you're showing, being able to identify corruption in magical items..." He was already pulling out a guild card.
"That's very high-level support ability."
He filled in the card with decisive strokes.
Handed it to Tessa.
She looked at it.
Her mouth fell open.
"B-Rank?!"
I stared at Tessa.
What the... this girl. This useless idiot is B-rank?
Scarlet was also staring, her expression complicated, somewhere between disbelief and irritation.
"Your combat ability is nonexistent," Zerys said bluntly.
"But your Material Analysis skill is B-rank minimum, possibly higher with training. That makes you a B-rank support specialist." He grinned at her shocked expression.
"Congratulations. You're now one of the highest-value support members in this entire guild branch."
Tessa looked between the card and Zerys like she wasn't sure if this was real.
"But I just... look at things and see their insides. That's not—"
