Chapter 3 - Exploring Town!

After walking for a few hours, a 4m tall stone wall with a gate attached came into sight, the view of the bustling city from the hill was amazing, we climbed downhill and decided to head towards the gate, I had a cloak on to hide my identity so people don’t raise a fuss about me for being a ‘divine beast’.

“Excuse me, do you know where I can go for accommodations?”

“The ‘Lucky Cat’ inn 3 blocks that way is a famous inn for travellers, it’s 1 silver per night with meals and it’s near the adventurer’s guild.”

“Okay, thank you.”

After asking a guard, Jack and I then made our way to the inn and used Jack’s money to pay for a 3-night stay. After Jack finished booking, we decided to head to the adventurer’s guild, the guild was pretty big compared to other buildings. The guild had few adventurers, most were at a large board on one of the walls, I followed Jack towards what looked like a reception area.

“Hello there, I’m Alan and welcome to the adventurer’s guild, how may I help you?”

“I would like to register.”

“So just you then?”

“Yes, please.”

“Okay, I’ll get it ready, please wait for a bit, Patricia! Prepare a card!”

“Gotcha!”

“Hey, how does this work?”

“Oh, yes, I will start with the basics then…”

So basically adventurers are people who travel around doing jobs, kind of like a handyman. Adventurer ranks go in order from G, F, E, D, C, B, A and S, the primary reason letters were chosen was to slightly increase literacy rate, but it doesn’t make too much sense to me though, but I guess it does?

“Alright, here’s your card, please don’t overwork yourself and challenge multiple requests or challenge a dangerous request, I’d recommend you rest before going out since it’s almost the 3rd-afternoon bell.”

“Understood, thank you.”

I received a metallic card with my rank on it, apparently ancient technology is applied to it to connect it with its user utilising magic.

We headed back to the recommended inn, Jack booked 3 nights for a single room with 2 beds. Ah, I have to sleep in the same room as a man. Quit your dirty jokes! Nothing is going to happen! Wait, that’s a flag.

“I’m hungry. Inventory select! Crude bread(4x)!”

I passed over a loaf of bread to Jack while swallowing all of my 3 loaves.

“Hey! Why do I only get 1?”

“Because you're not God.”

“W- Gods don’t need to eat to survive.”

“Well, I do.”

We ended up arguing for several hours, I just gave up because I was simply too tired and tossed him another loaf of bread. I slowly begin losing my consciousness after laying in bed……
