We finally arrived at Maroon City.
I sighed deeply in relief. Finally! It took us almost a month to get here due to so many obstacles in our way.
First, it was that ice elf guy, whatever his na was, then it was another ice elf whose na I did not catch, and then
Ahem, it would've been much simpler if we had just strolled here peacefully. At least I got Akane and so levels out from this whole thing.
Speaking of levels, Kiyomi and Ravyn are around level 900, while Akane is near the sa level as . That only leaves with 380 levels left, which I haven't taken yet. Giving them levels managed to upgrade so skills, however, all of them I already have so there was nothing really special about what they got.
Anyway, we finally arrived at Maroon City.
Hmm, now if I were to compare Maroon city to any other city I know, it would be half the size of Osaka so it is pretty big. How do I know that? Well, thanks to my new Flight skill, I can fly now, though I still have so technical difficulties controlling it, such as balancing myself and not tilting one way or another.
From the top view, it was pretty big, so I compared it to Osaka because it was well, big. I bet it was bigger if we got inside.
Reaching the gates into the city, we were asked for our identifications before we were let in.
The walls protecting the city were made of gray stone, the gate was made entirely of chro-like material which gave off energy. The strange thing was when I used Wolf's Blood, I noticed unusual figures inside the walls giving off angelic energy.
Looks like the rumors were true. This city is well defended and suited for shelter against the demon army. To think the walls were built on sleeping angelic critters.
If there are demonic critters, then angelic critters are also to be expected. The two are totally different things and I would explain what the difference is, but maybe another ti. All I will say for now is that demons are extrely allergic to the energy these critters produce, and the sa can go for angels.
I could sense the air around my body tighten up as I stood in the entrance. The oxygen around also begun to thin up and my vision blurred for a mont. My legs were close to buckling, but luckily we were let in the city before that happened. Eventually, I could breathe normally again.
That must've been the side effect of having that demonic critter inside . I thought it would disappear once I had used it, but to think it was still inside of my body. Removing it was a tireso task, but it was a good thing I managed not to pass out during the process, or die.
"Are you alright?" Akane said worryingly.
"Yeah, just a little ill."
The city was pretty big and the population was pretty big. As expected of a wealthy and well-known city. We decided to explore the stores since we might visit them later.
After a while of exploring the city, we were now heading towards the Adventurer's guild located in the city. It wasn't hard to find it in this large city since the building was so large.
The rather large establishnt was a 5-story building and almost reminded of a kind of mansion. Maybe it is, who knows?
I pressed my hand on the door and entered.
"Hya!"
Whoosh!
A large man was thrown towards and I quickly bent back, evading the man who flew over and rolled across the ground.
Regaining my composure, I looked at the man who just sent the other guy flying towards . He had gauntlets on his hands and I tilted my head while using Analysis.
He was level 5,234 and he was a Tank and a Monk class, a class specializing only in hand-to-hand combat techniques. The skills well I'm not gonna bother.
The man behind on the floor was at 4,201, and he was a Warhamr and an Assassin which was a little weird, but I'm not gonna bother. The sa goes for his skills.
Anyway, it's a good thing I dodge. If I didn't, I would've probably ended up with a shattered skeleton. I could almost feel the intense force that guy made when he flew towards .
"Oh, sorry about that," The guy walked up to and said before walking over to the other guy.
"Co on, we'll do this outside!"
"Yeah!"
Then the door slamd shut and the entire room was silent.
okay.
"Ah, sorry about that," A woman with short blonde hair said as she walked up to .
"It's alright," I responded, and the woman's face suddenly blushed red.
"O-oh right."
I tilted my head as she turned and walked away. A sudden weight was placed onto my arm and I looked at the girls.
I sighed and turned to inspect the lobby.
The first floor served as both a reception and a restaurant or bar.
Now then, I believe I'm supposed to hand the invitation to one of the ladies at the reception.
I made a beeline for one of the empty counters and a lady quickly greeted .
"Good morning, how may I help you?" She said with a bright smile.
"I have an invitation," I said as I handed in four envelopes. The lady took one of them and opened it up, taking the letter out. After reading it, she nodded and placed the letter back in the envelope. Then she collected them in her arms.
"I see. Alright, please follow ," She said, pointing to and the girls.
We followed her up the stairs and while we headed up, a red-haired man with a blindfold covering his eyes in a white coat approached us.
"Special Recomndations?" He asked in a soft voice to the lady before shifting towards us.
"Yes."
"I see."
Then the man walked up to and greeted .
"I'm Hijiri Yamate, a Purple rank adventurer."
He had his hand out for a handshake. There was no ill will coming from him, so I shook it.
"Nero Akuma, Brown rank."
"Brown rank? Hmm, you must've done sothing if you were able to get recomnded at that low of a rank. I think I was a Pink rank when I was recomnded, which was a year ago. Well anyway, good luck with the guildmaster." He said before walking past us.
Hmm, that man is strong. I used Analysis on him but his stats were completely scrambled.

------------------
Seems he possesses the Distorted Stats skills or whatever this ss is. Not even Yukie is able to figure out what this is. I'm just gonna stop looking at it because my eyes hurt from looking at this.
"Ahem!"
The lady cleared her throat and we resud following her until we heard a yelp behind us.
I turned and Hijiri had his hands on Kiyomi's shoulders.
"W-what is your na?" He asked Kiyomi.
"U-u-uhh..."
I walked over and pulled Kiyomi from his clutches.
"Is there a problem that you had to lay your hands on my girl?" I asked and Hijiri turned to .
"Uhh, sorry. It's just that her eyes... they reminded of soone I knew."
"Huh? You have a blindfold over your eyes."
"Ah, this? It's just to limit my Mystic Eyes of Interspace. I can't really control it well or I'll be staring at a creature a thousand miles away. This limits my vision. This blindfold has special properties which limit my vision to that of a mortal, so I can have the sa vision as a human would. Anyway, I apologize."
"I see..."
Hijiri turned and walked down the stairs. I turned to Kiyomi and asked if she was ok.
"Yes, I'm alright."
"Good."
"Ahem!!" The lady cleared her throat once again and we continued to follow her.
"Young people these days." She muttered.
After walking all those stairs, we finally got to the fifth floor, which was where the guildmaster's room was. The lady knocked on the door and a woman's voice spoke from the other side.
"What is it?"
"We have four special recomndations."
"Is that so? Co in then."
I heard what sounded like a lock unlocking and the door creaked open. The lady pushed the door and we followed her in, closing the door behind us.
I looked over at the lady sitting on the couch in front of us and my eyes widened as I inspected her appearance.
She had long braided white hair which fell past her waist, fancy black clothes that would suit a witch, and powerful eyes which shone green.
But what surprised the most was what she was. She had dark skin and long pointy ears, like an elf.
That feature imdiately told what this person in front of was, and she probably already knew that we knew.
"Yes, indeed. I am a dark elf."
