It had now been two hours since William had signed a contract with Michael.
He was currently lying in a room of a hotel called Rosel High, which apparently was under the adventurers guild.
The room wasn't anything fancy, but it did its job of giving him sowhere to sleep for the night and giving him food in the morning.
It costed 2 bronze coins per night, and he just booked it for tonight since he wasn't sure if he would be able to make it back tomorrow after his mission.
In this world, coins were used for currency, and they ranged from bronze, silver, gold, and platinum.
And for their conversion, it went sowhere along the lines of.
100 bronze coins = 1 silver coin
100 silver coins = 1 gold coin
100 coins = 1 platinum coin
And Rex had given William 500 golden coins before his departure, aning he roughly had the equivalent of 5 platinum coins.
To put it in perspective, the average middle-class family can live comfortably their whole life with just a single platinum coin.
And he had five of them, so yeah, he was basically loaded, but that's just a given for the heir of a noble.
Anyway, he was getting sidetracked.
The main thing was that tomorrow he was supposed to go on his first mission, which would be chosen by Michael.
That's right Michael had decided to handpick missions for him.
"Fuck, it's so annoying that I need to wait till I'm at least S rank," William muttered.
That's right back when William asked him about when he would start teaching him; he said to wait till he was at least S rank, which ans that he still didn't have an offensive martial technique.
But it's fine; his spells should be enough for now.
He was currently not wearing his second mask,but his appearance was still altered thanks to his black sli, so his identity was safe.
Looking at the ti, it was 11:47 p.m. Realising it was getting late, he decided to finally get his much-needed rest.

It was now a new day, and Edge Lord was currently in the guildmaster's office discussing his first ever mission.
"Yo, long ti, no see," Michael greeted his disciple.
"Wasn't it just yesterday when you beat the shit out of ?" Edge Lord replied with a question.
"Ignore the small stuff anyway; I handpicked a few suitable first missions for you, which I'm sure will be a good learning experience," Michael replied, dodging the question.
"Yeah, whatever, just show the missions you've selected," William said.
Hearing his words, Michael took out three sheets of paper and placed them on his desk for Edge Lord to see.

Seeing the third mission, William only had one thought, so to clear his head, he asked.
"What criteria does the adventurer guild use to assign the reward to a mission?"
"It's assigned based on the urgency and importance of a mission paired with the difficulty of a mission," Michael replied.
"While we take so fees from the one commissioning missions that don't play a part in the overall reward of the mission,"
"For example, since in the first mission the risk is relatively low as well as the lack of urgency, it has the lowest reward."
"But this mission was commisioned by a pretty big alchemist who the guild would like to maintain a good relationship with to buy potions from in the future, causing the reward to be evaluated at 4500."
"As for the second mission, its reward is due to the danger involved in the mission."
"And at last, the third one, which is the most urgent due to it involving a human life, and according to our estimations, it probably involves a pretty big gang of bandits, due to which it's priced at such a high price."
"If you choose not to accept the third mission, I'll look for another adventurer to do it in your place."
"With that knowledge, what mission would you like to choose?" Michael asked.
"Reserve all three in my na for today. I'll start with the third one. Tell when the next carriage to Zunesha village will depart." William replied with confidence oozing out of his tone.
Michael smiled upon hearing his response, almost as if he were expecting it.
"Very well, the next carriage will depart in 3 hours. Be prepared."
"Sure"
