As I opened the journal and looked inside it was if I was there all the way back then when was just some kid or I guess you could say a nobody as well I guess anyway I then read the first page it read-
'This journal belongs to Victoria Claire and under that at at the bottom the page it said Chance if you are reading this I put an enchantment on this so fuck off!'
"Hahahahehhehaha!!~ I cracked up I completely forgot about that the fucker kept on stealing my journal and I finally got sick of it~" if I recall correctly he still tried to read it after reading the warning and activated the curse that made him lose all his hair until he begged me to remove it and apologized after that he never tried to break into my shit again.
I turned the page and began to read-

Januwary - 1st - 974
Today I saw and adventurer pass threw through town and they were super coool! and super scary lookin I ended up building my courage despite my mama's warning not to get to close! They super nive nice he told a story about how he had fought a Minotaur and almost died!
He said I should avoid becoming an adventurer because it is dangerous or something.
I wanna become an adventurer though... I mean if it was so dangerous he'd be dead then right?

...I was pretty naïve back then huh? Though I am glad I was because it made me the person I am today and well that was the moment that set me on the path of adventure... I began to reminisce about that day-

"Hey Vicky look at that guy over there with the big sword." I looked where Chance was pointing and saw a huge man is he a giant?
I turned to look at mama who looked a bit startled and asked "Mama do you know who that giant is?"
"That is an adventurer dear don't get to close to him they are dangerous" She said but I was skeptical but listened none the less and we went back to shopping.
[Later that day]
it was evening when I saw the big adventurer man again he looked a bit down... So I went over to him and asked what was wrong.
"Are you okay sir? You look a bit sad..." He jumped a bit I think I startled him and then looked at me.
"What do you want little girl." He said in a tired but rough voice. "I was just curios why you look so down..." I said as I sulked a bit because of his attitude he didn't have to sound so rude! I was just worried about him...
He looked a bit surprised as he asked "Really? Your surprisingly polite to an adventurer like me..." He mumbled for a moment so I didn't hear what he said but it didn't sound like he was saying something mean so it's okay!
"Yeah!" I chirped
"I see..." He seemed to ponder for a moment before saying "I am on my way back from a mission I nearly failed but somehow managed to finish the hunt for some goblins... But I ran into a minotaur on my way out of the forest, I am honestly not sure how or why it was there but started chasing me so I ran into a near by a cave that looked to small for the damn thing to fit... it tried to chase me but got it's head stuck in the entrance so I managed to stab it in the neck." He said
"I am just tired I almost died you know?" He sighed and continued "Kid never become an adventurer it may pay well but honestly it isn't worth the risk for most and once you start you won't be able to stop until you find yourself in the grave." He said in a somber tone.
I looked at him but I didn't give a response.
"Hahaha! I guess that isn't enough to denture you huh? Well if you want to become an adventurer I'd start training now if you don't wanna get yourself killed as I said being an adventurer is incredibly dangerous and I wouldn't recommend it as an old friend of mine once said it's a literal dead end job... Once you become and adventurer there is no going back." He then got up from the bench he was sitting on.
"I must go to bed now kid I have a long journey ahead of me." He said as he waved a farewell and left.
...I just stood there blankly for a bit but I quickly came to and ran over to Chance's house! I blasted threw his bedroom door scaring him "Chance!! I know what we should do when we grow up!" I yelled excitedly.
Chance looked at me confusedly for a moment before responding "What crazy plan do you have now?" He said with a raised eyebrow "We should become adventurer's!!! Also You are the one making the crazy plans on the time!" I glared at him.
Chance ignored the last part "Becoming adventurer's huh? Why would you suddenly want to do that?" he asked.
Excitedly I then recounted my conversation with the giant!
---
At that moment our fates were sealed weather we knew it or not.
I wonder what happened to that guy I should have looked into it but alas I did not... But to this day I am still thankful for that giants warning if he didn't advise me to train in advance I would have died a long time ago I am quite confidant in that! He was a good dude I hope he died with a smile.
I sighed those day's were so simple I truly miss them... I do regret not spending more time with my family when I had a chance but then again if I did spend more with my family I would have more than likely died because I didn't train enough before I became an adventurer I mean shit I underestimated the hell out of what it meant to be an adventurer if it wasn't for Chance, Aria and Victor I'd have died countless times already.
Anyway I flipped to the next page-
