"Luciel, how did it go?" - Don Armando asked when he saw Luciel come back from the doctor.
"It went well for me; the doctor managed to fix my arm and gave me some pain pills."
"That is good to hear."
"Yes."
"What's going on?"
"Is nothing."
"Of course, something is wrong, it shows on your face."
"Well ... it's just ..."
"Yes?"
"I'm kind of tired of going out all the time hurt by brats younger than me." - Luciel said somewhat annoyed by what happened in the morning.
At dawn, he was with Billy, Fred and Eren playing, when other children joined, but due to an argument between Eren and another boy, in which Luciel intruded to calm things down was that the other boy hit him Luciel on his arm that almost broke it.
Luciel, with a lot of pain, went to Dr. Aris who cured him.
"I see, still, I hope you don't want revenge."
"Of course not, I just ... I just wish I could defend myself, or at least have the strength to withstand a blow from someone my age ... or someone younger than me."
"Well, you're right about that ..." - Don Armando said. - "Already."
"Hm?"
"How about I train you?"
"How?"
"Yes, I will train you, so that you know how to defend yourself, and I will teach you my cultivation method so that you can start obtaining World Energy and become at least a Village Novice."
"Really?" Luciel asked. - "No ... Will it be a nuisance?"
"Not at all, on the contrary, I should have taught you to cultivate a long time ago, after all, the stronger you are, the more you can help in the restaurant with some heavier tasks that right now you are unable to do, besides, it is better that you manage to do yourself stronger, so the days like today will end when you rest from being hurt, so, yes, it would be best if I taught you. "
"Thanks."
"You're welcome." - Don Armando said that from this day on he would train Luciel.
At the Adventurer's Guild, Taylor was doing or an oral exam to the Unity team.
"What are the ranks of the Adventurers?" - was the first question Taylor asked.
The four Earthlings raised their hands.
"Reus." - Taylor named Reus to answer.
"Yes, there are ten ranks, starting with the lowest rank which is the rank that the four of us possess, Rank F, the rank that all newly registered guilds possess, is the rank of newbies."
"AHA." - Taylor said that he wanted to continue listening to Reus' response.
"Then there is Rank E, it is from this rank that an adventurer already has some experience, and where he can already face certain groups of weak monsters. There are three ways to rank up, the first is by completing ten F-Rank or five E-rank missions, the second is by being registered for one year as an adventurer, and the third is by recommendation. "
"Follow."
"Then there is Rank D and then there is Rank C. Adventurers at these ranks perform missions primarily to help villages with danger from monsters, plus you can rank up by completing a certain number of missions or with a recommendation. It is from these ranks that one can be called an expert adventurer. "
"The next rank is Rank B, from this rank one begins to be considered an elite adventurer, it is this rank that differentiates a normal adventurer from a talented one. Rank B adventurers and teams are usually mobilized to face threats that put cities at risk. "
"Ranks A and S can only be acquired by completing a certain number of missions, in addition to having a good reputation and having hunted a monster of their respective rank alone. Adventurers and teams of this rank are usually mobilized when there is a horde of monsters threatening a region. "
"The SS and SSS Ranks can only be acquired by completing a certain number of missions, having the support of an adventurer of that rank, having a great reputation, and having hunted a monster of that rank alone. Adventurers and teams of this rank are only mobilized when there is a threat affecting a nation. "
"Finally, there is Rank X, the Rank of the Most Powerful Adventurers, the creme de la creme, the strongest members of the entire guild. This rank can only be obtained by the strongest adventurers who have completed one hundred SSS rank missions, plus ten rank X missions, have a continental reputation and fame, who have hunted three rank X monsters alone and who count with the support of a nation. Adventurers and teams of this rank are only mobilized primarily to deal with continental crises. "
"Well, it's just as you said Reus, I see that after so many months you have already recorded it."
"Clearly."
"Ha, well, how about we move on to the next question." - Taylor said. - "What are the Adventurer rules? You answer Alec. "
"There are three: Do not murder an innocent person, do not damage the reputation of the guild, and do not attack or harm a member of the guild."
"How can the reputation of the guild be damaged? Answer you Mia. "
"By failing a mission and lying that it was successful, by doing fraud, by stealing, hurting or blackmailing a client, having a bad reputation and being declared criminals."
"Well, remember that very well, do not murder an innocent person, yes it is possible, do not murder anyone, although well, in our profession, we always run into criminals, be they bandits, thieves or murderers, so that's fine. murder alone and when in self-defense. Never attack, do direct or indirect damage or perform an evil act against a member of the guild, be it another adventurer or a member of the staff. And lastly, the Guild's reputation is important, never dare to tarnish the Guild's reputation. "
"..." - Tom nodded his head.
"What obligations does every Adventurer have?"
"One, which is that, in an emergency, a nation can request all adventurers in the guild as a fighting force, only when it comes to the threat of monsters." Alec answered.
"That's right, we are not mercenaries, although many confuse us with those barbarian war lovers, we, our main objective is to reduce the number of monsters that affect our continent, and in our own personal goals that each adventurer has, already be it money, influence or fame. "- Taylor would say that he was satisfied to see that the members of Unity have learned the theory very well.
Seeing the four, Taylor felt a bit proud, after all, he considered the four as his students, and although he was slow, they clearly showed progress.
"Well, it's time to cultivate." - Taylor said with a smile, to which Alec and Tom began to prepare to cultivate, while Reus and Mía turned pale just hearing that they were going to cultivate.
At sunset, the four Unity members returned to María's Inn, but none had enough energy to get up from their beds, while, in the Restaurant of the Crimson Swordsman, Luciel kept listening to Don Armando talk about his cultivation method.
