The next day ca earlier than expected. Sunlight pierced through the windows, stirring everyone who slept on their respective beds. Since they all had different rooms, they turned in their various places, not wanting to wake up from their blissful sleep.
I snapped my fingers and imdiately they yelled from their various rooms, causing them to rise from their sleep and hurry to get freshened up.
"You have 30 minutes" I said to them, already dressed and ready.
It's finally ti to address the issue we ca to Lamar for.
[Monts Later]
We walked steadily to the giant structure that seems visible no matter where one stays in the city. The massive Adventures Guild building.
Shamac, Talia and Ana still look like they require sleep, but they've rested well enough. I didn't even sleep at all last night, but I suppose I can't compare myself to them.
"Let's get this over with" I said to myself.
It didn't take us very long to reach our destination, since our residence is not far from the Guild building. The large structure appears even more impressive now that I look at it up close. I opened the door to the building and my slaves followed behind .
Imdiately I entered, I sensed so an energy interference of so sort. Is it a barrier made by a Relic? I looked behind to observe the others who ca with . None of them look fazed, aning I'm the only one who felt the strange sensation.
"How curious" I muttered.
I decided to ignore the feeling I got and approach the Receptionist desk. There are about 5 receptionists stationed at each stand, so it's up to to pick the one I want to go to. I picked the one to my far left.
She bead a bright smile as she saw approaching her.
"Welco to the Lamar Adventurer's Guild. How may I be of service?" She asked with a smile.
I also returned her gesture.
She looks younger than the rest of her colleagues, also more inexperienced. For her to be stationed at the far left also ans she doesn't have many patrons and custors. Her inexperience and young age must have sothing to do with it. In which case, she'll definitely be overjoyed I chose her station over the rest.
I'm certain the receptionists get paid according to how much work they do and the patrons they receive over a period of ti. For her, who has very little custors, aning smaller profit, she is definitely going to be excited to have soone like .
As usual, I wore my very exquisite outfit, dark and red, with shades of purple. Just my style. and my servants dressed no less, making us look like very prestigious custors.
I can tell due to my heightened senses. All eyes are on us. From the Adventurers within the reception area, and those lurking about, to even the other receptionists who shot the one I went to a jealous look.
They all have an opinion of which is fundantalky wrong though. I am not a custor or a patron. I am soone interested in sothing else.
"I want to register as an Adventurer" I told the young lady.
I looked at her chest region. She had a na tag pinned on her dark purple outfit, a uniform for the receptionists here.
"Nadia eh?" I said to myself.
"S-Sir? Did I hear you correctly? You want to register as an Adventurer?" She asked, repeating my words.
She looked surprised, looking at carefully. My young looks and expensive looking attire, with similarly dressed companions do not look like one who would say sothing of the sort
"Buahahahahaha!!!"
I heard cackles of laughter coming from behind and glanced back to see what the matter was.
The Adventurers were laughing, all looking at my direction. They snickered and chuckled with amusent, most likely because of my earlier statent.
"The lil' kid wants to be an Adventurer!"
"Isn't he just a rich brat? I an, look at his outfit"
"Pfft, classic. The guy thinks Adventuring is as nice as it sounds."
"Buzz off kid, this place ain't fun and gas"
They all made deaning comnts and wagged their tongues unnecessarily, jeering .
They look like a rowdy bunch. Adventuring is a rough work, and a highly dangerous one at that. But the dangers are worth it, so it's a high risk, high return venture. A successful Adventurer is highly respected and honored. This makes many individuals aspire to beco Adventurers too, unfortunately greatness isn't for anyone.
The annual mortality rate of Adventurers is close to 40 percent. This ans every year over One third of registered Adventurers die, mostly as a result of quests.
Still, many aspire for this incredibly dangerous career. So seek thrill, so seek exploration, but mostly it's because of the fa and money associated with the job.
So for soone who looks so young and rich, it's only natural for them to look down on my interest in Adventuring and make jests. Since it appears I do not have any need for money or glory, the only assumption they have left is that my reason is for fun and thrill. Soone like that is certain not to last very long in Adventuring.
A perfect sentence to certain death.
"S-Sir. Are you sure?" Nadia, the receptionist asked .
Is this girl retarded? How many tis do I have to state a simple sentence.
"Yes, I am. All of us want to register as Adventurers. Not only that, but we want to form a Party together." I told her, referring to Shamac, Talia and Ana.
Parties in Adventuring, are groups of Adventurers who work as a team, share their profits evenly or based on agreents with one another and are officially recognized by the Guild.
"O-Okay sir. Since that's the case. You'll have to fill so forms. There is a separate form for registering as Adventurers which you all have to fill separately. Then there's the Party form you are expected to fill together. After that, you all will be taken to the examination room for your proficiency tests and rank determination. The forms will be processed after your exam, and you'll return after three days to see the results." Nadia said.
"Also, the fee for registration is 10 gold coins" She added.
"10 gold?" I asked.
That much is nothing to , but I'm surprised. The value of money here is very strange. I didn't expect this much for registration. Most people who register as Adventurers are those of humble backgrounds, with no other job to look to and a knack for the rough life. Having 10 gold coins is not sothing an average person achieves easily.
If I am to guess the reason for this absurd price, it's due to the sudden surge in many individuals who desire to be Adventurers. To thin out the herd they must have raised the price to discourage many from registering.
Of course, that doesn't apply to us. After all, I'm rich!
