The sound of footsteps and monsters roaring could be heard echoing through the dungeon. Souta panting with every step he took, ran for his life when a bunch of monsters were after him.

He took a sharp turn to his left and tried to escape the furious monsters that were chasing him instead, he crashed to the floor when his leg hit a small bump on the ground.

He turns around to see that the monsters that were once chasing him have now surrounded him, drooling their mouths out as they watched Souta panic in fear.

"I can't die here, I can't die here" He screamed in fear, wiggling his dagger in the air as his hands began shaking in fear.

Not wanting to become a victim to these savage monsters, he ran towards one of the monsters, screaming as he stretched his dagger forward to stab one of the monsters.

-----

Suzuki Souta, is a sixteen-year-old adventurer, he hunts lower-level monsters in other to meet this earns needs, and this is his story of how he became the greatest adventurer that ever lived. 

*1 month before the incident where Souta gets attacked by monsters*

The city of Aramoor is a wonderful and peaceful place, where adventurers from all over different kingdoms come to register with one of the best guilds in the land.

"I finally made it''. He adjusted his bag properly on his back, giving a warm excited smile on his face, "Now to look for the guild".

He made his way to the town's guild, walked over to the entrance, and knocked on the door as he stood there waiting for a response.

"What the hell do you want?" A tall buffed scary looking man answered the door, he opened the door slightly as he peeped through the tiny space he left.

"M-my name is Suzuki Souta '' He stuttered, the intimidating look the man gave him was so scary that he almost thought of turning back, but that was never an option, "I would like to join your guild if you don't mind". He bowed his head closing his eyes as he awaited the man's response.

"What rank are you again?" The man asked, taking a good look at Souta's body, which didn't quite look like he packed a punch.

"I think I should be a D ra-" Before Souta could finish his sentence the man rudely slammed the door against him.

He sighed, "I guess I'll try somewhere else".

He went to different guilds all giving him the same negative review, as soon as he mentioned his rank they would all slam the door in his face.

After he had enough rejections, he went to sit down on a bench on the sidewalk, holding seven guild letters in his hand, "it's been a whole day and I have already been rejected by seven different guilds … awesome" He gave a sarcastic smile as his head fell in disappointment.

"Join my guild" he heard a faint voice calling out, he wasn't sure who the person was referring to but he just had to find out.

He tried finding the person who was yelling until he finally saw a girl with a large bosom and a ponytail with a white dress on trying to recruit people to join her guild.

"You know what they say, eight times the charm" He tries to make his way towards her, squeezing his body through the crowded area only so he would be able to get to the other side.

After she had also gotten a fair share of rejections, her once gloomy look turned into a smile when she saw Souta standing in front of her, holding on to her fliers that had the drawing of a guild building on them.

"Do you want to join my guild?" She asked with a devastating look on her face, he looked at her and thought to himself that if she were to ever get rejected again she might just break down and die.

He takes a look at the guild paper, the crayon drawing kind of threw him off, but hey beggars can't be pickers.

He looks at her again, this time with a serious look on his face, "But I'm only a D-ranked adventurer" he expected his rejection but to his surprise, the girl was desperate enough to concede.

"Sure, we'll take ya," she said with a bold smile on her face as she starts slapping him on his back.

"Wait, for real?" he asked as a pleased smile made its way to his face.

"The name is Nakamura, Hinata Nakamura, but you can call me Hina," she said, confidently placing her left hand on her chest.

"Oh, I'm Souta..." Before he could finish introducing himself, she dragged him by the hand as she headed on.

"Where are we going?" His hand was being dragged around corner to corner.

She pointed at a building that looked completely wrecked, it looked so old the sign on the building's top began to rust and one could hardly make out what was written there.

Still dragging him, she gave an awkward smile, "That's the guild", Souta who was worried about what the guild would look like on the inside gave back a nervous smile as he thought to himself, "I'm sure, it will all work out somehow".

They arrived at the entrance of the guild that looked so small one could mistake it for a bar house, "So what's the name of this guild?" Souta asked, dodging the huge rat that crossed him by.

"It doesn't have one… yet," She said, opening the door to the guild house, the instant he went inside his head was covered in cobwebs, he tried dusting them off his head when a thought suddenly hit him.

"Hina's guild"…

"Uh?" she turned back, pouring magic into the magic lamp that lights the entire guild.

"If you want to attract more members, you are going to need a guild name and a good poster" he made his way in properly walking over to the guild board where people put up quests they need adventurers to fix. 

"What's wrong with my poster?" She pouted,

"It's great and all, but something a little more realistic, not a three-year-old journal," he said, patting her on the head.

She turns around with her face beet red, she walks over to the other side of the room where she wrote down a list of things she wanted to do.

She grabbed a pen and ticked *Get a guild member*, a cheerful smile made its way to her lips before she came out of the corner.

She comes out to see Souta rearranging and dusting the guild house, she stops for a sec as her smile turns into a bombshell, "What are you doing?" she asked

"I'm cleaning you can't get a new member with a dirty guild house, now can you?" He tossed one of the hand towels over to her.

She gave a little smile before she started cleaning too, "I'm the boss damn it".
