Chapter 41 - Chapter 41: So What's Your Grade?

"Oh, that must be her." Opui(the chief) said.

Then the chattering and footsteps slowly became louder and louder, until.

*creeeeak

There, was a girl who had light blonde hair and sky blue eyes. She was around 14 years old and was talking with her friends.

"Oh, who are these people father? Acquaintances maybe?"

"These people? They are adventurers. They came here for a mission, then one thing let to another and you came up in our conversation. So they asked if they could meet you."

"Meet me? Of course, if you would excuse me."

Saying this she went out with her friends then came in again, seemed like she told her friends to go home or something. Then Afui sat down on one of the chairs then greeted them. They then started to ask about each other.

"So Afui, i heard you have advanced to the 3rd level of magic, low-tier mage. Is it true?" asked Rai.

"You knew? Did father told you about that? Well it isn't a lie so i guess it's true. What about you? You look like a mage."

"Me? Well i am in the 2nd level of magic, amateur-grade mage. Wait, now that i say it again, Sir Godo, what's your level? You could even cast 'Supreme Lightning Strike'."

Hearing this, Apui became a bit curious and leaned a bit, smiling slightly.

"Who me? Well you know, i am--"

Then Godo quickly changed the use and purpose of his 'Inspect' skill using extreme shenanigans power level to make a new skill then observe himself. What he saw was 'Magic Level(Grade): NIL'. Having nothing to say, he continued,

"Actually i don't know what grade i am."

Not convinced enough, Rai answered.

"Hmm, you don't know? Well then maybe we can check it later when we go back. But we will absolutely check it ok?"

"Um, Ok Ok. We shall do it."

"By the way, is Miss Folaei a mage too?"

"No, i am not."

"Really, then what kind of role do you play."

"Well i have learnt some martial arts and fighting techniques and i am also quite fast and agile so maybe a surprise attack type?"

"A fast and agile type? Don't those get in the way?" asked Afui while pointing below her neck.

"These? Nah, they don't usually get in the way."

"Oh ok, that's strange."

Rai then continued asking her some questions, which she answered while asking.

And just like that, Rai and Afui had already became friends. Also the whole time, Shuya was just sitting there, smiling. Then finally, Afui also asked,

"Then, what does Shuya do in your party."

"Uh-uhm me? Well, i use a sword and i know some hand to hand combats and also some magic, so i guess that makes me the main tank and swordsman."

"Ohh, is that so, you look weak but to think you were the backbone of the party, thats quite surprising."

Hearing this, Shuya shed a tear while smiling. He was hurt.

So the time is around 5 o'clock, and the sky is turning red and yellow, slowly being replaced by black and blue. Having nowhere to stay, Folaei asked the chief,

"So, its getting darker and all, and we don't seem to have a place to stay. Do you mind if we just put up a tent beside your house?"

"Ah, you can do that, no need to worry. I should be apologising for not being able to provide you a stay."

"No, no need to apologise. But thanks for your permission."

Then they went on having conversations again.

The Bad Guy's Place

A man was walking towards another man, menacingly, saying, (is that a jojo reference?)

"Ahh, i beg your forgiveness. The people who were supposed to go the village were the ones who died."

"Well,,,,,, that sucks. Just withdraw for now. We will ambush them on their way back. Carefully observe them, here i will give you a 'Vision Ball'."
