5. It Starts Here. Finale Edit.
As he walked down the road, he noticed all different kinds of shops.
Blacksmiths. Alchemists, Enchanters and Beast Shops.
There were some shops Archer didn't know or really wanted to know by the look of them.
Not even 10 minutes later he arrived outside a tall building.
It was made of green colored stone with wooden features here and there.
Walking up to the building, he approached the massive doors, pushing them open.
When he walked in, he started looking around.
It was a massive hall with counters set up to the right as you walk in.
A row of wooden boards that held loads of paper pinned to them on the left side of the hall.
4 beautiful women stood behind the counter serving adventurers.
There was a spot at the end free, so I walked over.
A woman with brown hair and green eyes sat behind the counter looking at some papers.
She doesn't look very tall but still taller than Archer by a little bit.
As he approached she looked up and smiled before speaking.
''Hello young man, how can I help you today?''
Archer looked at her and answered.
''I want to register as an adventurer please.''
She then looks closely and asks.
''How old are you?''
''13''
She cocked a eyebrow and asked the question that came to her mind.
''Is there a reason why a 13-year-old boy wants to become an adventurer? It's dangerous you know?''
Archer looks at her like she's an idiot.
''Coins and leveling up, what else?''
The woman sighs. The kid makes sense in a strange way.
She then shuffles some papers around and brings out a form and passes it to Archer.
''Here fill this out and hand it back when you're done.''
He looked at the forms and found them pretty basic. Luckily, he can read and write the language thanks to the memories he received.
So he filled out the form, before handing it back.
The woman looked at it and nodded.
''Thank you Archer, you'll be assigned F rank, but if you complete 10 quests you can rank up to E, which repeats until you reach rank D where you have to take a personalized test by the guild.''
''There are some rules.
The guild will reprimand you for any crime you commit and suspend your adventurer card. If you are 30 days late on a quest you will be fined or in some cases thrown out of the guild, there will be no fighting inside any of the guild buildings, you can't take quests with other adventurers unless your in the same group unless it's a emergency quest from the guild, and lastly no threatening guild staff.''
She looked at Archer.
''Do you understand Archer?''
He nodded his head.
''Yes, I understand.''
She smiles and introduces herself.
''I'm Sarah. I'll be your receptionist from now on. Now wait for a bit while your card is processed. Let me explain what quests you can take at your rank. You can take any F or E ranked quests but none higher than E. If you are in a group you will be allowed to take D ranked quests, understand?''
''Yes.''
She then walks off to sort it out.
While he waited, he overheard the adventurers talking about him.
''Look at the little elf, he's pretty cute.''
''What is a pretty boy doing this in here?''
''I love his white hair and those pretty violet eyes!''
''Look at those ears though, they aren't elf ears!''
Ignoring all the gossip he heard, he waited for Sarah to return.
She returned 10 minutes later, passing Archer a black card.
''Here you go archer, it has your name, rank and the quests you've completed on it.''
He took the card and looked at it.
It was a shiny black card with his name printed across it.
He threw it into his item box before speaking.
''Thank you, I'm about to begin to take quests now. It was nice meeting you Sarah.''
He then walked off as she says bye to him. He makes his way to the quest board.
3 huge boards with loads of paper stuck to them.
Walking over to look at a mission that caught his eye.
After reading through the papers most F or E rank quests are just to help people around the city.
Archer then noticed one that caught his eye, walking over and picking it up.
[Wild dog hunt: wild dogs run wild just outside my farm. If any adventurer could come and help us, we would be eternally grateful]
[Reward: 80 silver coins]
''I'm curious, I'll take this for now.''
He ripped the paper off the board and walked towards the counters, while all the adventurers were watching him.
''The little guy is heading on a quest? I bet he will fail haha.''
''Leave him alone, we know nothing about him''
Even though Archer overheard them again, he ignored them.
He reached the counter and gave Sarah the slip.
''Here I want to take this quest please.''
In a concerned voice, Sarah looks at the slip before looking back at archer.
''Are you sure you want to take this Archer? They are quick and roam in packs.''
''It will be fine don't worry, they won't be able to get the jump on me.''
She sighed.
''Give me your guild card so I can stamp the quest and register you for the quest.''
He hands her his card, and she uses it to do something on the counter.
''It's ready now, the quest has been assigned to you Archer. You have 30 days to complete it or you will face a penalty.''
In response, he asked her where the quests were located.
''So where is this farm?''
Taking a look at the information, she turned her attention back to Archer.
''It's two hours from the eastern gate. Exit the gate and head west and you'll see the farm.''
''Okay Sarah, thank you for your help.''
Archer turned on his heels and headed towards the exit excited to hunt.
Exiting the guild he turns towards the eastern gate and starts walking.
10 minutes later he arrived at the gate.
It was very tall, at least 15-20 meters tall, made of solid green marble-like stone.
Guards patrolled the wall above, while others were stationed at the entrance.
He approached the entrance and passed through without any guards looking at him.
After exiting the city gates, he looked around and started walking westwards while marveling at the landscape he saw.
A rolling plain ended in a forest that bordered the city. It was only a mile away from here.
After a few hours of walking, Archer felt his stomach growl.
''Fuck I don't have any food, well hopefully I can hunt for something to eat''
That's when he looked up and saw a farm in the distance.
He walked towards it and saw a single-story wooden building.
It looks a bit worn out, but it's still functional.
He walked up to it and when he got outside he knocked on the door.
Knock!~ Knock!~ Knock!~
He heard a few steps coming.
Heading towards the door, it was opened by an older looking man with a fed up expression on his face.
''Oh a little boy, what do you want? Where's your parents?''
Archer stares at the man with a blank expression
''....''
He shakes his head and takes out his guild card.
''Look''
The old man looks at the black card in the boys hand and his eyes widen.
''Emm sorry young man, you're the adventurer who will deal with the dogs?''
Archer nods and asks for information.
''Where are the dogs?''
When the man steps out of the house, he answers.
''Well the dogs are at the back of the farm, where it borders the forest. They've gotten closer every day.''
The man sighed before finishing.
''Thank you for coming to help us young man. My name is Evarius.''
Archer looks at the middle-aged man.
''Nice to meet you Evarius, I'm Archer. I'll go deal with them now.''
He turned around and walked to the back of the farm, after a brief walk he arrived at the forest's edge but didn't see anything.
''Where are the...''
Alarm feelings wash over him making my whole body shiver then he panicked.
He glanced back to see a dog lunging at him from behind.
Quickly cast a space shield.
''Cosmic shield!''
A purple colored barrier appeared and blocked the dogs lunge.
Thud!~
Aiming his hand at the dog, he fires a powerful void blast at it.
''Void blast!''
Woosh!~
A strong force shot out and hit the dog square in the face crushing its head.
[100 experience gained]
He quickly turned the notifications off, because they were to distracting.
There were 3 other dogs looking at Archer who was growling.
Growl!~ Growl!~ Growl!~
Bringing his hands up and casting inwardly.
'Void blast.' X four.
Woosh!~ Woosh!~ Woosh!~ Woosh!~
The void blasts sped off smashing into the remaining dogs sending them flying, landing not far from where they encountered Archer.
'Mana'
[550/800]
''50 Mana per blast isn't too bad, I need to increase my Mp, maybe I can use those points things I remember.''
He looked around and spotted a body lying there.
Thump!~ Thump!~ Thump!~
