After taking a look around, the three of them arrived in front of the registry office, and here was the supervisor also from the Dobbins, another sexy woman who looked like a cute and innocent raccoon, and because of this, Ryota couldn't help himself and immediately greeted her first: "Hello! We want to register our names as guild members, please."
"Do you want to sign up as a team or separately?" The girl smiled and asked softly.
"We will sign as a team!" Ryota answered first again with a reddened face, apparently fascinated by the Dobbin girl in front of him.
"Good! Take this paper, please write your names and it is better not fake. Don't worry, this information is confidential to us."
"After writing your names, you have to choose a name or logo for the team and fill it at the bottom of the paper".
"If you don't, one will be given to you by the guild."
"Hmm, what name shall we choose? What do you suggest?" The three weren't expecting something like this so they had no idea, and Akina wanted to know anything they had.
"Is the Three Knights suitable?" After much thought, Ryota suggested with an optimistic look, but Akina smashed his idea with her cold reply: "What is that childish name?...we want something more ferocious."
"The Three Mages?" Ryota said again.
"Ryota! Please stop." Akina refused again.
"What about the Mighty Three?"
"I'll send you and your three outside if you don't shut up so stop and let me think." Akina looked at him angrily.
"Kotaro! Is there something on your mind?" Since Kotaro didn't share any thoughts, Akina asked him again.
"I really don't know about these matters, why don't we choose one of the names that Ryota suggested and just finish the matter," Kotaro spoke without caring.
"Hah...it is really useless for you two. Looks like I'll just have to choose myself," Akina thought.
Moments later, a name flashed through her mind, then a satisfied smile was painted on her face: "I found him!"
"The Avenger!" suddenly, with bright eyes, Akina answered, addressing the supervisor.
"Are you sure? You won't be able to change this information after you confirm it," said the girl in her sweet voice.
"Yes, we're sure... right?" Akina turned her head towards Kotaro and Ryota while smiling at them with her eyes half closed, but the two of them knew that behind this smile a hidden meaning, that if they opposed Akina's order, who knows what their fate would be.
"Yeah." the two nodded in agreement without giving them a chance to argue.
"Okay, you can leave now and come back in a couple of days to receive your team badges. Then you'll be officially guild members and you can start doing errands" the supervisor said with her last sentence and then moved on to the other new members who were waiting for the three to finish.
After leaving the guild, it didn't take long for the sun to start setting and nightfall. Because of this, the three were confused about where they would spend the night, as they had no money left to rent a room or a place to sleep.
After browsing the map, Ryota found a nearby garden, and the three decided to settle in it until morning came.
...
In the blink of an eye, the sun rose again and the new day came. And the three left early before the garden was filled with people.
"Now where?" since they had to wait another day for them to start working in the guild, Akina didn't know where they would go for that day.
"To make money," Kotaro said.
"I don't want to spend another night sleeping in this place," Kotaro continued, slightly annoyed.
"You mean the Magic Arena?" Ryota inquired intently.
"Yes, we will fight today." Kotaro was smiling, eager to fight after a long time.
"Hehhh… the rewards better be worth our effort." Akina laughed as well.
The three of them set out to the heart of the center, where the magic arena was located.
The three of them stopped in front of the Magnificent Arena and stiffened in place after being shocked by its huge and colossal size. It was square in shape, and its length and width were about 300 meters, and its height seems to have been no more than two hundred.
After checking, Ryota recognized the metal with which it was built, and when he did his jaw nearly fell out of place. The Magic Arena was built from dragon stone, which is one of the five hardest minerals in the world, and not only that, but the dragon stone and relative to its name, it is a very rare stone that is only found near dragons' nests and areas, so you can imagine the danger of excavating it, but this stone and in front of them is now used to build such a large arena. So Ryota couldn't help but wonder how much it cost them?
After entering and asking one of them, the three knew where to register to participate and headed there. The Magic Arena was not just limited to the Battle Arena, there were also many auxiliary facilities inside.
This was a long hallway and in front of it was a large hall that contained many participating mages who were waiting for their turn.
"Hello, we want to fight." After arriving at the recording officer's office, Kotaro came forward to inquire.
"Is this your first time here?" asked the official, and by chance, she was also a dobbin, a thin and beautiful panda, but Kotaro and Akina were not surprised, and they became accustomed to it. It seems that the management positions within the downtown area were reserved for the Dobbins, especially the young girls, and of course this was to attract more mages, the likes of people like Ryota who was now wiping blood after his nose suddenly bled.
Akina couldn't help but sigh with pity for his condition.
"Yes, could you explain the rules to us please?" Kotaro was focused.
"Yes!" replied the Dobbin, taking out three papers in front of Kotaro, Akina and Ryota.
"This is a guarantee and protection contract, all the rules and conditions are written on it, and then after approval, if you want, you can sign below."
What was written in the contract was as follows:
First, how to choose the opponents, two people can agree in advance to fight with each other or be done randomly by the officials, but in this case the difference in level between the two should not be more than one station.
This rule can change if there is a tournament or special event.
Secondly, the value of the reward is five silver coins for each victory and in return, five silver coins are lost for each loss, starting from the second match of the participant.
This rule can change if there is a tournament or special event.
Third, fighting between participants in the waiting room or in a place other than the arena is prohibited.
Fourth, the match ends with making the opponent unable to fight, whether by killing him or another method and thus preventing surrender within the match.
This rule can change if there is a tournament or special event.
Fifthly, there will be a rest period between each fight, for half an hour or more, depending on the competitor's physical condition and also his desire to continue participating or stopping, or other factors.
Sixth, any outside interference is prohibited at the beginning of the match between the two mages, which would help or hinder one of the parties, and the penalty for that is determined according to the effect caused by the interference.
Seventh, participants can choose any nickname or name they want to refer to.
Eighth, after signing the contract, it will remain valid until the person concerned dies, and then with the passage of each year special benefits will be added to its owner.
"Okay, we'll sign." After he finished reading, Kotaro didn't think much and said straight away, although he was a little annoyed by the fourth rule.
"The signature is done by fingerprinting with a few drops of the contract holder's blood," the official warned with a smile.
After signing and leaving it up to Akina to choose the nicknames, the three headed into the ring. It is possible to wait inside the waiting room or follow the other fights from the seats of the spectators until it is their turn.
