Chapter 9 - Adventurers Guild

"So where should I get that life or death fighting experience you just talked about?" I asked.

"Well even though i really hope there will not arise a situation such as that, sigh... Anyways the best place you can go to, is to join the adventurers guild, but i recommend you not use your real identity, so you should use a mask and not disclose your element to anyone, even though you will only get and an F rank adventurers license, you will not get too much attention, which you do not want still being this weak. You will be able to go on missions, preferably alone or as a group, but when you are in a group, even though you will only be able to act as a carrier, helper or an item gatherer, you can go hunt when everyone is asleep. But i don't really need to tell you all that, because you are smart to understand this yourself" Adam recommended me not so, as few things.

"So when and where should i go?" i asked defeated by fate yet again.

He explained to me where the adventurers guild is stationed.

"I will get you a mask till tomorrow and... what weapon do you mostly prefer using? i mean.. you are able to use any weapon masterfully by now." my dad asked unexpectedly.

After a few minutes of thinking..

"Would a spear and sword be too much?" I asked with hope.

"hmm... Would you like a Naginasa then? Its literally a combo of the two weapons" Adam asked again.

"No, i would like the two separated, I want to have both weapons, because i feel the most compatible with them both." i smiled

"Okay i will find them for you till tomorrow morning" Adam said while walking away.

I guess the Hell my dad calls training here has finally ended, now its time for me to gain power myself and find some elements to absorb later.

I went back to the mansion to tell mom what me and my dad decided to do with me in the future... well in all actuality everything was decided by dad... but i tell myself otherwise, to not get myself a headache.

My mother as always was worried about me, ..me too to be honest, tomorrow i will go outside and meet a lot of people i have never met... me being an Introvert in the past and current life, in my past life just because and in the current life because of known reasons, It will be hella hard for me to adapt..

Its not that much worry, but my fear... and its actually kinda funny, me having fear resistance and all that haha...

I will have to chew on that fear and go there anyways.

sigh....all i really want is to go to bed and just lay there all the time... never seemed that much possible after i received my element, i mean i am happy i did... but still, i wonder how my life would have continued if my element never appeared... Boring? sure. But at least not that tiring..

The next day Adam brought me a simple looking black mask, A two meter, possibly silver, spear and a one handed sword that looked simple af.

I thanked my father and put the weapons in my ring that I enhanced with my [Space Pocket] skill.

I enhanced two more rings and have given them to both of my parents for them to use. This is one of my most useful skills ever obtained in my opinion. It is good for everyday usage.

But I will not disclose such ability because this might make quite the fuss in the empire or even world.. so until i become strong enough i will not show anyone else this ability.

My parents are the only exception to this.

I put the mask on my face and looked at the mirror

I was standing tall at 1,80 cm, black hair, blue eyes seen from the holes of my black mask that looked good with my white shirt and trousers, and with my black shoes and black, long and hooded cardigan of sorts.

Before going out my mother gave me 5000 gold coins, if by looking at the total of my family wealth, then this is just a grain of rice and if spent, you wouldn't even notice. Yes, if you still didn't understand, my family is Filthy rich.

After saying my goodbyes to my parents I went to the place where my dad said the adventurers guild should be.

After a few hours of walking I reached my destination.

It was smaller than our mansion but it definetly wasn't small, in fact it was huge compared to other buildings around it.

Everywhere you looked was crowded with people, which made me feel uncomfortable, but i gritted my teeth and went inside the Adventurers Guild.

When i walked inside there was a reception and a few lines of people leading to it. I also went to stand at the back of the line to wait for my turn.

The line shortened every few minutes, and after half an hour, it was my turn.

"Would you like to post a commission? There will be a fee depending on the difficulty of the comission and you have to also give the corresponding rewards for it, if the rewards aren't eye catching, also depending on the difficulty, then it will be hard for someone to accept and complete it" said the receptionist without looking at me.

"Actually, i would like to register to the adventurers guild and become a member.." I said with an unwillingly shaking voice.

Still not looking at me the receptionist said

"If you want to register you also have to pay a fee of 5 bronze coins"

"Umm, sorry i don't have any less than that.." i give one Gold coin to the receptionist and when he looks at what i gave him, his eyes nearly fell out of its sockets.

"Oh esteemed adventurer, this is no problem at all haha, I can make change in just a few.."

He is already calling me an adventurer huh.. all it takes is money. I interrupt him:

"Don't worry about it, keep the change"

"Oh thank you, thank you! Can i ask this adventurers name?" the receptionist asked curiously

"I would rather not disclose" i immediately answer

"Oh i am very sorry, but... I need some kind of name to properly register you into the ranks of the adventurers" He said

I looked down and tried to think of a name to name myself for now..

"Umm, Alucard?" I asked thinking of a random cool sounding name from a novel i read somewhere.

"Hmm let me take a look, just a minute" said the receptionist while trying to find if there is a name like that "I am afraid this name is already taken"

SHIET... ummmmm

"How about Percival then?" i ask again hoping for that there isn't a name already such as that.

"Let me take a look again" after a few minutes of looking through the lists " No there doesn't seem to be anyone with such a name, are you really okay with name because this will be permanent"

"I am sure" fuk it, Percival sounds good, not too cringy or something... i hope.
