Aiming To Be The Best Magician In The World! Chapter 442

"Well… How should I start this off? It was many years ago. Like around the time I started to become an adventurer I suppose." He started to narrate as he started to remember the past.
"It all began when I was on a mission to eliminate some goblins within the Wretched Timberland Forest. I think it was my first commission I had when I was a D-ranked adventurer. It was honestly more of a scout mission rather than an execution." He said.
"I decided to go around the night when monsters are most active. Just in case I was ever in a predicament and could use those goblins as distractions I suppose. I was pretty confident at running away back in the day after all." He continued as he chuckled a bit reminiscing his past.
…
"Careful on your way out there! It is really dangerous at night in those types of places! Who knows what could be lurking within the darkness…" A cute guild receptionist had said to him as she scanned his ID Card.
"Don't worry. I am confident I am able to outrun anything that comes my way. If worst comes to worst, I will probably just climb a tree and hide up there." He replied to comfort her.
"You know, that doesn't make me less worried at all. Everywhere you go, there is always some type of trouble that follows. Like that one time, you supposedly went to pick up some herbs. How did you end up bringing the dead body of an orc? When were there even orcs near that area?" She grumbled as she looked at him.
"Uh… One can't be that unlucky alright? It is not like that will happen twice. After all, I am still here alive and well aren't I? I am also in perfect condition. Therefore, nothing can go wrong! Just mere goblins, I defeated an orc. They won't pose much of a threat!" He said as he pounded on his chest with his fists assuring her.

"Fine, whatever you say. Just go already. The longer I see you, the more I can stand you. You don't even want to heed my advice. Hmph!" She angrily pouted at him as she turned away from him.
"Ah! It was a joke! I will prepare alright! I'll be extra careful! Don't be angry with me! You already know that whoever you dislike, the other guild receptionists will surely ignore them too!" He immediately started to apologize when he saw this happen.
"This is my job after all! I need the money to live! Also for my family back at home! There is no way I will die until I can guarantee their success in life." He added to reassure her one last time before she could say anything else.
"Fine, you can go now. It is already getting late, you wouldn't want your family to worry right?" She said as she no longer pouted.
"Alright, I will be going now." He said as he waved her goodbye before exiting the building.
"Bye!" She waved back at him.

Silhouette
WARNING: THIS STORY HAS A SLOW START. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. We all grew up hearing stories about heroes and villains, but what would we do if we were to be part of one? One night, a bioweapon escaped from its laboratory in Zalcien, only to die in a dark alley. One night, a young man lent a helping hand, only to die alone in the dark. One night, a deity of death saw two lost souls and offered one a second chance in the other's body. Now a strange creature made of darkness, James has to deal with his new form in a strange new world where superpowers, heroes and villains are commonplace, far away from his home. Watch as he learns how to use his powers, as he meets allies and enemies and how, when facing the paths of heroism and villainy, he chooses a third way somewhere in between. Follow the story of James, a lost Earthling soul, as he becomes Silhouette, the mysterious power in the shadows. Greetings fellow humans. This is my first story on Royal Road and my first long-term project written in English, so I do hope you will have some mercy in your heart when reading. So, as you may have understood, this is a story with super-heroes - which is quite ironic for my first story considering all of the other ones planned are fantasy - and as such will take place in a modern-like setting. Despite dark themes and gory scenes making their way into the story, it is still a super-hero world with the logic that matches, so expect characters to survive nuclear explosions without a scratch and yet to get defeated by a rubber ducky - as well as similar dark humor, thus the comedy part.
