The sound of footsteps echoed through the city. A dust cloud was rising, as if a marathon was takingplace. Slowly zooming in, we find our protagonists in a pickle.
"I THOUGHT WE GOT RID OF THIS PROBLEM JAMES!"
"SO DID I BRAT!"
"THEN PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME HOW THE h.e.l.l ARE WE GETTING CHASED BY THAT d.a.m.n MAGE
AGAIN!"
The duo were running at top speed towards the guild hall, and right behind them was Reiner"s crazy
sister. She was raging once more and fire was coming out of her mouth.
"I ONLY LET YOU GO BECAUSE OF MY BROTHER, BUT NOW I CAN FINALLY TEACH YOU A LESSON
ROOKIE!"
James slowly gulped and turned to Griff who merely murmured the following, sagely words.
"…mommy…"
James slapped him across the face with a tick mark on his forehead.
"GET YOURSELF TOGETHER KID! WE HAVE TO SURVIVE!"
Griff shook his head and got a hold of himself.
"YES SIR!"
A crowd had gathered around them, cheering for the duo to survive against their local Tsundere. After
all, tsunderes were as scary as demon kings. Just then, over the horizon they saw the Guild Hall door.
"BRACE YOURSELF GRIFF!"
"SAY WHAT?"
However, James did not give poor old Griff any time to think as he just picked him up, and tossed him at
the door.
"WHAT THE F-"
Griff had crashed through the door.
"SAVE YOURSELF!"
James turned around and tried to hold Reiner"s sister down.
Griff ignored what was happening and hurriedly took his new weapons and armor, running towards the
Guild Master"s staircase.
"Hey! Aren"t you going to help me?!"
Shouted James who was using his new sword to hold his foe back as if he was a lion tamer.
Griff turned back and put a hand to his chin.
"Ehm… na. You didn"t help me the first time this happened. Suffer, old man."
Griff quickly turned and ran as James cursed unspeakable words behind him, which was pretty
entertaining for the resting adventurers in the lounge.
Lilia was walking towards the guild-master"s room as she b.u.mped in to Griff.
"Hey Griff, where are you going?"
"Gotta speak to the master about my magic. Also James told me to learn about the mechanics behind
the life of an adventurer."
"Um well, you normally ask me those, but since your attribute is a special circ.u.mstance you can go on
ahead. I was going to give the daily report to the master, but if it"s fine can you?"
She quickly pushed the stacks of paper in Griff"s hands. Winked, and ran.
Griff clicked his tongue.
"Tch… played again."
He sighed and started walking up the staircase, and knocked on the door. He waited for a few seconds,
but seeing that there was no response he tried turning the door k.n.o.b. However, unsurprisingly, the door
suddenly got blown to smithereens, with the master standing in front of the door with a guilty smile.
"Yeah. I"m just going to stop being surprised at this point. I mean, being surprised at this point is pure
and utter nonsense. So, master, I got these papers for you and also was going to ask you about my
affinity."
Suddenly the paper stacks in Griff"s hand vanished and appeared behind the master, having been put on
the desk.
"Alright now Griff. First of all, you are not to tell anyone of what we are about to speak in this room."
"Yea…ok."
The guild-master didn"t like his response as he closed in on him and squeezed his shoulders.
"Listen here young man, if I were to tell you all I know about your affinity it would not only put you in
danger, but it would put this entire city in danger. You"d go back to slavery in chains or become an exotic
house pet of delusional n.o.bles of the Kingdom. So, tell me. Do. You. Understand?"
Griff gulped and slowly nodded his head.
"Good. However, seeing your current mindset I am completely sure that now is not the time for you to
begin dwelling in to the world of magic. Especially not with this current mindset. Focus on adventuring,
gathering an understanding of the world, and maturing. Because this thought process will endanger you
in the future."
"Alright master, you definitely are right. I was even told by Lilia that I should shop with James in order to
not be played by the merchants."
"Sigh… that"s sadly true. That"s how much you lack common sense, but I can"t blame you for that.
Humbert told me in his letter that you experienced memory loss in one part of your life. We"ll hopefully
get over it in time. For now, just focus on adventuring."
"Well master I was also going to ask you about that. What exactly do I have to do?"
"Yeah, I better tell you. So, as an adventurer you are tasked with solving problems of varying kind from
finding lost cats to helping the kingdoms against great threats like the demonic race. You can take
quests from either the board or the receptionist"s desk depending on their rank. The reason why we
a.s.sign you adventurers ranks is to a.s.sign you quests because they, too are a.s.signed ranks. However,

without the – and +. You"ll receive the rewards of the quests from the receptionist desk. The rewards
increase with rank."
Griff had fallen asleep as the master had started blabbering out information. Seeing Griff asleep he got
p.i.s.sed and slapped him across the face.
"Wake up and listen to the answer to your question you brat!"
"It"s not my fault you rambled like I asked your first love!"
The master snickered.
"Well, do you get it now?"
"Yup. Much simple than what I expected."
"Good then kid. Good luck out there."
Griff smiled as he gave a thumbs up and started walking down the stairs.
"Will do master."
