[Ed] 'York! Activate mirror force!'
[York] Activating Trap Card "Mirror Force". Mirror force active for 60 seconds.
As Bernard's attack approaches my face, a shimmering barrier surrounds me and blocks his attack...which then rebounds and the hilt smashes right into his nose.
[Ed] "That's gotta hurt"
The spectators gasp as they realize Ed wasn't the one to take the first hit.
[Bernard] "OK! Don't get too proud of yourself kid. A spell like that probably has a time limit. All I have to do is wait it out and you're toast."
Bernard looks slightly pissed now. He gets into stance and waits.
I start running at him with my right arm to the side to bluff preparing a spell.
[Ed] "There's one problem with your plan Bernard."
Then, I body slam him with as much momentum as I can muster.
Bernard got sent flying straight into a wall. Unfortunately, that wall was a part of the guild hall, and now there was a hole in it.
[Ed] "Ummm, sorry. I don't have any money to fix that."
The people watching stare at me dumbstruck. After a few seconds of silence, everyone starts laughing.
[???] "Haha! This new kid is something!"
[???] "Maybe we should've placed bets on this!"
[???] "Yeah, but would you really have bet on Edward?"
[Julie] "Good job Ed! I wasn't expecting you to beat him so easily. With that, your guild registration is now complete! Good luck on your first mission kid!"
[Ed] "Thank you. I'll see you later then."
[Ed]'I guess I should go kill some demonic chickens now. York, how long does it take to regenerate one energy point, and how long does a summon last?'
[York] According to my calculations, it takes approximately one hour to recover one energy point. Each summon will last for half an hour, and can be re-summoned with with more points. Also, you should avoid using spells and traps for a while since it leaves you vulnerable for at least an hour.
[Ed] 'You've got a point York. It'll take me about an hour for me to get to the site, so I can summon Kuriboh when I get there.'
I go up to the receptionists on the second floor and sign up for the Demonic chicken killing mission.
As an E ranking mission, it's repeatable and I only need to kill 10 chickens to complete it. All I need to do is bring back their gallbladders, which are used in medicine, and I get paid 10 medium copper coins.
As I stroll towards the fields where the chickens roam, I ask York for more information about the world.
[Ed] 'York, explain the currency system here'
[York] I will display the largest coin and it's equivalents
--Displaying currency system--
1 Large Gold coin
10 Medium Gold coins
100 Small Gold coins
1000 Large Silver coins
10000 Medium Silver coins
100000 Small Silver coins
1000000 Large Copper coins
10000000 Medium Copper coins
100000000 Small Copper coins
---------------------------------------
[Ed] 'So each coin is worth ten of its lower denomination.'
[York] According to the data collected from the shops, 2 Medium copper coins can get you a meal, while 6 medium copper coins allows you to stay at a small inn.
After understanding the currency used here, I arrived at the Chicken fields, and was greeted by thousands of chickens.
[Ed] 'There are so many chickens here. I guess this job will be easier than I thought.'
[York] Don't speak so soon Ed.
[Ed] 'How hard could killing a chicken be?'
When I started sneaking up on a Demonic chicken, I got my answer. It loudly crowed and alerted every chicken in the field. They quickly stampeded as far away from me as possible, leaving me in the dust.
[Ed] 'YORK! *pant pant* WHY IS KILLING THEM SO DIFFICULT?!'

[Ed] 'THESE THINGS ARE WAY TOO FAST!'
[York] I suggest you summon {Blackwing Jetstream The Sky}. It has a high defense and can fly to easily catch up to the chickens.
[Ed] 'Why didn't you tell me this before?'
[York] You never asked, Ed.
[Ed] "I Summon Blackwing Jetstream The Sky!"
[York] Summoning.
A Large brown whirlpool appeared out of thin air. A red and blue bird with black wings majestically flew out of it with a barrel roll.

[Ed] 'Why is he so much stronger than I am??'
[York] It can't be helped Ed. Jetstream is a monster from the wild, and you're just some crappy pampered human.
[Ed] 'Why are you so mean to me today?'
[York] Because I can. Now we should get started if you don't mind. Summons only last for 30 minutes.
[Ed] 'Shit you're right.'
[Ed] "Jetstream!"
[BJTS] CAW!
[Ed] "Start killing those chickens!"
[BJTS] CAW CAW!
And that majestic bird flew off to begin a slaughter.
