Supreme BeastTamer: I Can Copy and Upgrade Skills 10x! Chapter 396 Before Disaster: Adventure Guild!

The next day, Nox left the academy grounds after taking a leave of absence from the headmistress herself. After putting on the mask of Hound and adjusting his level to 100, he boarded a carriage that carried him straight downtown.

Nox had a pretty retentive mory. After going out two tis, he was now a bit familiar with the capital and was confident he wouldn't get lost. Besides, he could also ask the coachman for directions—they were, after all, very knowledgeable and knew all the routes to take.

The bustling streets of the capital stretched out before him, filled with loud voices and the clatter of hooves on cobblestones. Nox paid little attention to the surroundings, his mind focused on his destination: the Adventurer's Guild.

He had been planning to visit this place for a while now.

It didn't take long for Nox to arrive at the Adventurer's Guild. Naturally, the outside was filled with the Awakened. The fake statue of the king still lood in front. Anger briefly clouded his mind, but he pushed all these thoughts away and stepped through the massive oak doors of the Adventurer's Guild.

Keeping his head low, Nox made his way to the counter, where a stern-looking receptionist greeted him with a sharp nod.

"Welco to the Adventurer's Guild," the woman said crisply. "How can I assist you?"

"I'm here to take on a quest," Nox replied in a slightly deep voice. The receptionist's eyes flickered with recognition—level 100 was impressive.

"An expert? Impressive. You'll have access to mid-to-high-tier quests," she said, though her tone remained professional. "Can I see your adventurer's card?"

"Adventurer's card?" Nox smiled bitterly. What the hell was that? But he wisely said quickly, "I misplaced it so years back, so I decided to get a new one. I'm not from this kingdom, you see."

Seeing his expression, the receptionist smiled. "It's okay. You can always register a new one and start fresh. We can get you started with the process. Please follow ."

Nox nodded, hiding his irritation behind the mask. He hadn't anticipated needing an adventurer's card, but it made sense. This world had its systems and bureaucracy, just like any other.

The receptionist led him to a smaller chamber off to the side of the guild hall. It was a modest room with a desk, a couple of chairs, and shelves lined with scrolls and ledgers. A large emblem of the Adventurer's Guild hung on the wall, its polished surface reflecting the sunlight streaming in through a window.

"Have a seat," she said, gesturing to a chair. Nox complied, leaning back slightly as she sat across from him and pulled out a blank form.

"Before we begin, I'll need your na."

Nox hesitated for a fraction of a second before replying, "Hound."

The receptionist raised an eyebrow. "Hound? That's it?"

"For now," Nox said, his tone leaving no room for further questions.

The receptionist proceeded to write down Nox's na and level. As for his class, Nox had simply stated he was an assassin, as he didn't want to complicate things too much.

Furthermore, it was quite easy to convince the receptionist, as he briefly used [Phantom Cloak] and [Divine Velocity], which were very similar to assassin-type skills.

"Now, onto the formalities. Do you have any combat experience?" she smiled professionally.

Nox's lips curled into a faint smirk beneath the mask. "Plenty."

"Care to elaborate?"

"I've handled beasts, bandits, and worse. Do you really need the specifics?"

The receptionist pursed her lips but didn't press further.

'Why am I even asking an expert this sort of question? Of course, he would be very experienced!' she scolded herself and proceeded to smile as she said, "Fine. Your proficiency in weapons or magic?"

"Both," Nox replied simply.

"Alright," she said, moving on. "We also need to know if you've ever been part of any rcenary groups, guilds, or noble factions."

"No," Nox said curtly.

"Good. That makes things simpler," she said, jotting it down. "Finally, a blood sample is required for the guild's magical registry. It ensures authenticity and helps us track adventurers in case of ergencies. Do you consent?"

Nox's eyes narrowed slightly behind the mask. A blood sample? He hadn't expected that, but refusing would only draw suspicion. "Fine."

The receptionist reached for a small, ornate dagger and a crystal vial from a drawer. She handed them to Nox. "Just a small cut will do. Drop the blood into the vial."

Taking the dagger, Nox made a shallow cut on his palm, letting a few drops of blood fall into the vial. The crimson liquid shimred faintly as it mixed with a glowing substance inside.

"Good," the receptionist said, taking the vial and placing it into a slot on a strange magical device. The device humd softly, and a mont later, a card materialized in a flash of light. She handed it to Nox.

"Here is your adventurer's card," she said. "It contains your basic details and level. You'll use this to accept quests and track your progress. Take care of it—replacing one isn't cheap."

Nox examined the card. It was bronze, sleek, and tallic, with his na—Hound—and level inscribed on the surface.

"Anything else?" he asked, slipping the card into his pocket.

"Just one last thing," the receptionist said. "Do you have any preferences for the types of quests you take? Hunting, escort missions, exploration?"

"Hunting," Nox replied without hesitation.

"Noted," she said, standing up. "Welco to the Adventurer's Guild, Hound. If you have any questions or need assistance, don't hesitate to ask. And by the way...your current rank is bronze."

"How does the ranking system work?" Nox asked, to which the receptionist explained.

The receptionist smiled politely, adjusting her posture as she began to explain. "The Adventurer's Guild uses a tiered ranking system to categorize its mbers based on their skill level, experience, and achievents. It helps to ensure that quests are assigned appropriately, minimizing unnecessary risks."

She gestured to a chart hanging on the wall, depicting various tals and gemstones arranged in ascending order.
