Chapter 26 - Guild 1 | Eina Tulle

/The next morning./

A weapon made of wood and was shaped like that of a sword, radiating profound life energy bolted straight at me targeting my right shoulder.

It was the Alf's Lumina.

I quickly stepped back barely dodging the attack.

However, before I could even get a grip on my breathing the Alf Lumina chased after me not giving me a chance at all trying to corner me as much as possible.

Predicting that the weapon would reach me in less than a second my brain and all of my parallel thoughts quickly search for a way to escape this situation.

Just as the Alf Lumina was about to reach a millimeter of me I summoned a barrier made out of chaotic elements.

Boom!

The weapon clashes with the barrier and the barrier broke unable to contain the profound life energy coming from the Alf Lumina.

The weapon stopped just before my neck as I lay on the ground, defeated.

"I win…" – Ryuu said with a big smile on her face.

/Clap/ /Clap/ /Clap/

To our side the girls of the pub began clapping cheering Ryuu for her win.

We are currently inside my [isolated reality mirror array zone] to prevent damages from spreading everywhere in the real world due to our battle.

"4/5 it seems…" – I said with a sigh.

"Yes…" – Ryuu nodded as she extended her hand to me.

I grab hers then she pulls me back up.

"Thank you I have fun…" – Ryuu said to me a sincere expression.

"I was the one that should thank you for accompanying me early in the morning even though you're busy." – I said to her

"No…" – Ryuu shakes her head.

"Give it up, Kai. Ryuu is a stubborn elf, you two won't go anywhere if this continues, just accept her thanks.

Moreover, it's good that you accompanied her in the morning she's always alone training you know." – Loraine said as she appeared before us.

"She always train's alone in the morning?" – I asked and everyone nodded in response.

"But aren't you guys just as strong as her." – I said as I can see their aura's are similar in level so I suspected that they are just as strong as Ryuu.

"…"

"You're really amazing, nya. For you to be able to easily determine how strong we are, nya." Chloe said clinging on Kai's shoulder.

"You know sir Kai even though were as strong we aren't as muscle head as this elf here." Loraine said.

"…"

Hearing her words everyone was speechless.

Everyone looks at Loraine as if she just said the most impactful joke they ever heard.

"Said by someone who's brain made out of muscles, nya… hahahaha…" Anya said, accompanied by a loud laughter.

"Loraine, trying to push your title to other's because you hated it is not good, nya." Chloe followed up.

The three continued bickering Ryuu was silent something on her mind and I was focused on something else as well.

I won against Ryuu 4 times, the 3 wins yesterday were included.

But she defeated me 5 times and this is the 5th time I was defeated.

I can say that the difference between levels is astronomical, not to say the difference between an adventurer and a common person.

It's not like I'm a normal person.

Either way the difference is too big.

In our fights after her first and last defeat this day Ryuu stopped holding back at all, unleashing her full power at me.

The only thing she didn't do was using magic as I wasn't able to force her to use it.

She was able to gasp the best way to deal with me and that is to confront me in a head-on clash.

I might be superior in combat experience, mastery and techniques but none of those can help me when I am confronting an unstoppable tornado.

Yes, Ryuu is like an unstoppable tornado in my point of view.

She has the speed and the power of one.

But even though I lost at her it wasn't for naught.

I finally got to measure my own power against an actual adventurer.

I deduce that my normal base power can take on a high level 2 easily.

My serious base power can take on a middle level 3 moderately.

If I gave my all I can probably fight an early level 4.

Risking everything I have available in my arsenal I can probably instantly kill a peak level 4 or if I got the chance to get a level 5 off guard I can probably deal a critical damage enough to put one out of commission.

This is just my analysis and real combat cannot be compared to a mere speculation as anything can happen in a fight and most of all everyone has their own hidden trump cards.

This is what I've learn back in my heyday wandering the entire Earth.

/8:00 am/

After my match with Ryuu we left the hostess of fertility giving our goodbyes, our destination is the guild or should I call the pantheon of gods in the mortal world.

Walking on the streets of Orario.

The streets were lined with medieval style houses.

There were many children, men, women, and elderly people walking about.

They look at Kai and Tessa with wandering eyes pointing their fingers as they hold the hands of their parents and guardians saying words like.

"A fairy."

"He looks like a hero in the stories."

"So beautiful."

Those were the words coming from the mouths of the children.

But their parents and guardians didn't stopped their children from pointing their fingers even though its rude.

As almost everyone that laid their eyes at the duo walking together in the streets was mesmerizing.

'Damn my S tier charm is something else.' – I thought having a cheeky grin on my face.

But to the eyes of our audience this cheeky grin of mine is like a sun giving light upon the world.

Our simple walk caused too much of a commotion, thankfully no one bothered to trouble us.

I sense malicious people around the city as we walk the streets and I can say their numbers are a bit too much.

But none dared to approach us, as such people themselves were also mesmerized by our looks.

'What can I say, even the devils need to bow before my looks.'

Ignoring my narcissistic line of thoughts, 15 minutes of walk and we arrive before the guild as we went inside everyone's gazes were quickly drawn to us.

An otherworldly handsome young man and a fairy-like beauty walking together side by side, and the pair were also clearly new faces in the guild.

People who paid attention to us began murmuring to each other.

"Wow, isn't he too handsome." A spear wielding elf whispered to her companion.

"That girl, she looks like a fairy." A human man said to his partner.

"Yep…" His companion retorted with a nod.

"How envious…" A Prum girl muttered.

We ignore our audiences as we head straight to the reception.

Finally reaching our destination we were greeted by an elf receptionist or to be more specific a half elf receptionist wearing glasses.

"Good morning, how may I help you two." – She asked with a friendly amicable smile.

Just like everyone else she was mesmerized by our unique beauty, still she was able to contain herself and maintain her professional demeanor.

Our meeting isn't confidential, I purposely walk straight to her counter as she is one of the few people I saw that has such a kind soul.
