Shin was about to walk inside the Guild when he was stopped by someone wearing knights armour "halt" the woman spoke, looking at Shin with a glare "you must not go there, the princess is in there waiting to have a fight with the Hero of Light, and I must stop v ask that can interfere" she said right after.
"I just wanna go in there to join the guild, am I not allowed to do that?" Shin retorts to the woman, madding her glare at him.
"You see you common man, the princess" the woman says and speaks about the princess's greatness with so much enthusiasm that shin could literally just walk past her and she wouldn't realize, which he did.
When Shin entered the door he saw someone sitting on a table surrounded by guards "Who are you and why are you here!?" A guard asked, shouting at Shin to immediately explain himself
"My name is Shin, I have come here to sign up and join the guild, I'm 18, have a familiar, and mainly use magic to fight" shin told them and then thought "on an unrelated, I shouldn't call author Sai, as 2 Sai's will be confusing, maybe Al instead"
"Well, too bad kid, princess is here and" the guard was saying but was cut of "that's enough" says an angelic voice, sounding like an angel, blowing a holy trumpet that all in the universe, would praise, and could calm even the angriest beings alive "I'm gonna have a fight, please leave sir" the same voice said making Shin look at her
She was a woman who had an hourglass figure, big chest and back, but most importantly, she gave off an aura of royalty, she had bright, flange orange hair and eyes, with pupils replaced by stars, her armour made her look like a valiant Knight, and finally, her hair flowed wildly, like a raging flame, almost as if that's what it was, a raging, uncontrollable flame, adding a bit of a self side to her
She looked at Shin annoyed, betraying her soft voice, as she glared at Shin for bringing her hopes up that her opponent was there, only for it to be crushed by the realisation that it was just a random man with black hair, that she didn't even recognize as someone who even resembles the light hero
"I'm just gonna join the guild here, since this is the first town I've reached after a while from the mountains I use to live and survive in since I was a child" Shin said bullsh*ting perfectly
"Then why didn't you choose to go to another town and get it there first? It would have made sense since it's well known I'd come here" the woman asked
" Well, how was I supposed to find out when I lived on mountains? I was the only person and survived is my own, and this is the first town I've been in" Shin replied to her
A guard in the background said "he's late, an hour late" making the princess think of something, she said "since the light hero is gonna be late, why don't we fight?" Making the guards surprised
A shorter guard looked at her shocked "you can't do that, he's a commoner, he'll be no match for you" only to have the princess look at him and smile while saying "don't you notice anything odd about him?" "What do you mean, he seems like a normal person" the short guard responded
However, a much louder voice spoke, reprimanding him "you are all fools, haven't you noticed anything about him?!" The voice said shouting, making all the other guards look at a man with pure white armour, and a guard quickly spoke "w-what do you mean captain? He seems like a normal man to me, there's nothing special about him" they said, showing respect to the one who seems to be the captain
"You really haven't noticed you fools! We recognised him when he walked, he completely hid his aura! Not even the princess could achieve that feat!" The Captain said, his voice booming and angry at their stupidity "looks like I'll have to increase your training when when we get back" the man said as if in anger but then thought 'i would never be able to forgive myself if you died, you are my second family' however, as he was only thinking, nobody heard it
The guards however all had one thought 'we disappointed captain, how could we, we have to get stronger' they thought, but wanting to disappoint their captain again, and swearing that vow once again, having already lost count of how many times it was made
Shin was standing there awkwardly, they were having a whole conversation about him while he was being quiet, he didn't want to be rude, and speak over them, however he didn't want to just stand there and not say a word, he was In a dilemma, and what makes it worse is that he's only spoken to a few other people, so he isn't really good at conversions, or being with other people, making the situation go to an even lower low for him, he has no idea what to do, how to do it, or when to do it, should he speak now? Should he speak later? Should he just go to a corner and cry, or should he give up in life and go back to his home, sulking that he has failed in such a simple task, never letting that go, and get into a state of depression, finally he decided to just go in the corner and cried, making everyone notice
"H-hey, why are you crying" one of the tall guards asked him, feeling a bit sorry "I'm just here and I don't know what to do now and I don't wanna disturb you and I feel awkward and I've never spoken to such a large group before and I have no idea what to do and I can't even speak properly and using and to much and I'm just failing right now ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ" he sulked, telling them what he feels, making them, even the princess, felt sorry for him, but Shin got up and said "let's just fight, please"
The princess nodded, feeling that was the best thing she could do right now, and told him "follow me, let's go to the guild arena" she walked shin nodded, following her along with the guards, until they reach an arena
The arena was made out of some strong, very dark wood, a beautiful brown color, giving of the feeling of being in a forest by just looking at it, the two fighters got on the arena facing each other
"We never told our names to the other, I'm Shin, nice to meet you" he says, getting into position to fight
"Call my Ember, the princess of the half dragons, and child of the dragon king, the and water and wind Goddess"
