Chapter 299 Four S Rank Adventurers
-----
(Sylphy's POV)
Thanks to my father and mother's authority, and also Aquarina's parents who also have the same certificate cards my parents had, we easily got through the gates of the city, and we got in! The beautiful interior was just as I imagined, the floor was all paved, there were colorful houses everywhere, people wandering about attending the market and other areas. There seemed to be a blooming market with many specialized shops selling clothes, armor, weapons, food, and even pastries and freshly baked bread! Uwah, I want to go there…
There was also an enormous assortment of street vendors, selling all sorts of goods. Weapons, armor, clothes, used stuff, fruits, vegetables, and also food stalls and carts selling skewered meat or sweets… there was a lot of the good stuff.
"Wow, there's a lot of stuff in here! Isn't this place way bigger than the previous village we visited? This is just a full blown city…" Said my uncle, smiling rather happily as he saw everything. "Doesn't this inspires you to sing a little bit? Hahaha!"
"Arafunn you're not going away!" Said my mother. "You always had a terrible sense of direction in big cities, if we let you go you'll wander about everywhere and its going to take us a while to catch you up!"
"Eeeeeeh? But I wanna explore! Explore! Right, Sylphy?" Asked my uncle, as I couldn't help but nod.
"Yeah I wanna explore!" I said, raising my arms.
"See? Let's go!" Said my uncle, grabbing my hand and about to jump off the carriage. Only for a yellow-gold thread to grab his neck and stop him from moving.
"Uakh!" My uncle cried a bit in surprise, looking back at my mother to find her controlling this magic thread.
"Binding Thread…" She sighed. "I prepared this magic just for you, Arafunn…" Her look seemed menacing to the point even my uncle began to tremble in fear.
"F-Faylen, come on… C-Calm down, I was joking! I wasn't actually going to jump…" He said while trying to avert his gaze from my mother, which grew more menacing as she got closer to him.
"Oh yeah?" She asked.
"Hahaha… Come on, Faylen, calm down for now. We are getting closer to the Adventurer's Guild." Said my father. Aquarina and her parents and Zack with Ninhursag were behind us inside the carriage where there were some goods that my father brought here as a pretext of being a merchant to sell off, even though we don't really need to do that.
"Oooh, so that's the Adventurer Guild!" I said, looking into the big, three-floor building that took almost an entire square. People of all shapes and sizes were walking inside and outside of it, it was a beautiful building made of brown wood and decorated with many signs, it seems that merchants were allowed to put signs selling off their products and announcing them for some pay… interesting.
"Yes, there it is, the Adventurer Guild of this place… We'll register you there alongside the other kids and Ninhursag." Said my father as he seemed to be rather excited. We swiftly moved inside as I saw Aquarina and Zack quite nervous as well. The moment we walked inside the building we found several people buzzing everywhere, it was very chaotic and even confusing. Everyone was tall compared to us, so it was even easier to get lost in here with our size.
"S-So much people… I have never seen so many people together in a single building…" Cried Aquarina.
"Woah…" Said Zack.
There were also people sitting around large tables, celebrating something. Perhaps some people celebrated having completed a request and having filled their pockets with money or a successful monster mitigation. Most of the place reeked at alcohol and food, it seems that this was also an enormous tavern, although our parents quickly guided us to the second floor, which was were most people carrying items moved to, the receptionists of the guild were waiting us there. Often attending people and accepting requests they had, or letting adventurers take requests as well.
"Welcome to the Adventurer Guild. May I see your Adventurer Card?" Asked a young brown-haired man with white skin and sharp green eyes.
Our parents quickly showed off their Adventurer Cards, they had false names of course, and had used some illusion magic to look slightly like the pictures showing in the cards. When the receptionist saw the "S-Rank" golden stamp on it, he almost had a heart attack, especially because it was four at the same time.
"T-That's… S… S-RANK ADVENTURER?! A-AND FOUR!" He cried in surprise. Most of the people in our surroundings quickly stopped doing what they were doing, looking at the alarmed receptionist. The words he said were quickly spread out everywhere. The man quickly took a device to check if the cards were authentic… and they were, as the device glowed bright green.
"I-It is an honor to see such legendary figures in this establishment!!!" Cried the man, lowering his head in reverence. S-Rank Adventurers were revered as legendary figures, no normal people could become an S-Rank Adventurer. Even A-Rank Adventurers were near impossible as well. This was because they did not only need insane amounts of strength but also the approval of whole nations and many nobles, even kings themselves. It was a title equal if not higher than nobility.
People that were A-Rank and S-Rank had done incredible feats that nobody else could had done. They were incredible in the very sense of the word. They needed to be recognized as heroes by the kingdom's nobles and even the governors, so it was something very big. They often were kept within kingdoms because nobles wanted to use their strength for themselves, although adventurers have carefree hearts and do as they please, so this is not often what happens.
"Haha, don't sweat over it. Can we have a meeting with the local guild master? We need to ask him for a tiny favor." Said my father carefreely.
"S-Sure thing!!!" the receptionist ran out to call the guild master, and in a few more seconds he came gasping for air, leading us to the third floor, which had many offices, the biggest door there led to a large room where an old man was waiting for us, the Guild Master.
