A guild is an organization building where adventurers and merchants gather. Guild serves as a job for these people. A guild serves as a protective barrier for a continent. The council delivers the quest issued by the citizens to the guild, Then the adventures select their desired quests from the crowd of quests.
Outside of Raven Guild, there's a huge crowd waiting to get inside. Apparently, after every 3 months, the guild recruits members through a test. Seong also waiting to get inside, all of a sudden his gaze fixed upon a person just next to him. He wore a black cloak, and a hidden face, and carried a Japanese katana.
"Now recruits may enter" The man on guard yelled.
If we were to count there appears to be a total of 50 adventurers who wanted to apply. "I'm Kaiser nice to meet you, now we will begin the test, the test is simple if you can bring us the mana crystal of the high orc you pass!" A man in his late 20's spoke, He wore a white cloak above a blue turnip his tone was authoritative he claimed to be the right hand of the guild master.
"But isn't high orc... a 'B' rank monster?" A dumb-looking boy spoke up, his voice shaking.
"So? We are only looking for the best, if you can't manage a simple task like that you're not qualified. After all the 'Raven Guild' is a top-notch guild, over the years we've produced 15 S-ranks"He spoke his eyes narrowed a calmness available on his face.
"You have 4hr, to collect the 'Mana crystal' within the time. The high-orcs can be found 7th floor in the dungeon.
Seong thought that was straight from a game or novel. "Seong" A familiar voice called out, it was Sehyung.
"Did Asmodeus contact you yet?" He asked brows furrowed
"No, not yet" He shook his head and continued, "Did he contact you?"
'Ah, I forgot to provide you the key, this will recover all your abilities and skills just enter the key in your status window" Sehyung spoke, his tone soft but authoritative.
[Status]
Name: Baek Seong
Age: 21
Skill: Wind magic
"Unlock" Seong muttered
[System: all of your skills from World Alpha have been recovered]
As Seong entered the key to open, the familiar pop-up appeared before him. The air around him radiated a red mana and his whole body floated in the air, His eyes gleamed.
"Ah, I missed this power" He muttered under his breath
"Wish, you hadn't recovered. My dream of being stronger than you has now broken" Sehyung said his tone dramatic.
"You're stronger than Mr. Woo at least isn't that enough," Seong asked his voice has a hint of mischief.
"But...I wanna surpass you!" He complained
"Then what?" Seong asked narrowed eyes turning to him
"You won't understand, man i wanna see an elf fast" He yelled
"But we have the task of hunting down high-orcs, too bad!" Seong claimed with a mocking tone.
"What was that for" He smacked Sehyung in the back
"Nothing!"
"Huh? What do you mean by nothing, don't mess around!" Sehyung yelled
At the dungeon,
Inside the dungeon, it was dark, but thanks to the lantern hanging on the wall on both sides, as we reached the seventh floor, the aura from the previous floors was completely different. The air felt the heavy, cold breeze blowing even though we were so deep in the dungeon.
"So this is...7th floor" Seong muttered making a caution look.
"The air around here is similar to that 'Undead King' isn't that right?" Sehyung turned to Seong and raised the question.
"I think so, but this time we're not facing despair it's our turn!" Seong declared, clenching his fist.
Sehyung simply nods, "So we're winning uh?" He muttered in his breath with a low voice.

A race of red-skinned orcs. They are the strongest type of orcs. One of them is powerful enough to give an equal footing fight against an A-rank. They had bandages on their hands equipped with axes in their hand. Rumors had spread that, some of them could communicate with humans.
"Look those are huge, and on top of that, they have decent bulk" Sehyung.
"Gust strike" Seong muttered, he channeled his wind magic in his 'Amaterasu', making it surround the sword. It appeared as if anyone would happen to touch it now they would lose their fingers immediately. Seong lunged in, the orc swung its Axe from sideways but Seong ducked to dodge the attack and thursted the Sword. It roared with pain and backed away agilely, despite being so heavy.
The other orc struck at Seong from the right, Seong dodged it and shoved his sword. It hit a vital point and the orc collapsed. But the orc from the front struck him, Sehyung came in to save Seong from the strike,
"Heavenly Blast" A blast of light shot the orc at a rapid speed, turning it into ash.
"I have your back! Keep up with your offense" Sehyung yelled
[You have slain A high-orcs, A magic stone has obtained x5]
For a moment the orc was stunned seeing Seong and Sehyung teamwork. Their eyes were wide in disbelief.
"Hammar Smashh" A deep and heavy voice echoed in the dungeon. The orc who appeared to be the strongest charged with a hammer. The hammer was as big as him on the back of that hammer a blade was stuck making it a strong weapon. Seong and Sehyung dodged the attack immediately but the ground where they stood completely shattered with a single attack. The matter was as clear as water that, the orc was not ordinary high-orc. Among 'B' ranks he was the strongest. Not to mention, as the rumors he could communicate!
[System: The current rank of the high-orc has been adjusted]
['High-Orc' Bairon B(rank)- A-rank]
