《Transported to a different world for no reason!》Chapter 8
Advertisement
I woke up after a good night's sleep. The sun was already high in the sky, the birds were chirping and the people were doing their daily business.
" I guess I overslept!."
I got out of my bed in the inn, stretch for a bit then put on my new armor and hanged my new sword on my waist. I tried the function of the adventurer's guild card, it is called "Warehouse" it allows me to store up to 10 items. I put my old sword in it and headed downstairs to have breakfast.
" Good morning Mr. wolf!. Is that a new armor? It looks great on you."
" Good morning sally!. Yeah, I got it yesterday."
Sally, the daughter of the innkeeper of 'Honeyclaw'. She is 10 years old with brown hair and brown eyes and she is a very energetic girl.
" Do you want me to bring breakfast?."
" Please do."
After waiting for a while, Sally brought me my breakfast.
" Here's your breakfast. I hope you enjoy it!."
"I will!."
My breakfast today is the famous breakfast dish of this inn, Baked honey bread. I've been eating this bread since I lodged in here, it is very delicious.
" Thanks for the food."
I finished my breakfast and went outside. My plan for today was to do some quests and get used to fighting with my sword.
I headed to the adventurer's guild. Every time I see the adventurer's guild building I remember that I am really in another world.
When I entered the guild, there were about 10 people in here, same as always. I headed to Sofia's desk.
"Good morning!."
When I greeted Sofia, she looked at me and started inspecting my new armor.
" Doesn't it look great on me?."
When I asked her, she answered me.
" Yes, it looks really great on you. I heard you saved the town yesterday and you went to the Lord's mansion, So this the reward you were given?."
"Yes, I was given this armor and this new sword."
When I showed her the new sword I got, she started inspecting it.
" Hmm, it seems you got really good stuff, Even B-rank adventurers won't be able to get their hands on gear like this."
" I figured."
"Well be careful. Some adventurers don't like people who show off their gear."
" Yeah, thanks for the warning."
Since I was already here, I decided to ask Sofia a question that has been bothering since I registered as an adventurer.
" Can I ask something?."
"Sure, Go ahead."
" I've been wondering about this for a while, this city is where the Westguard noble family is living, does that make it an important city in this kingdom?."

" That's right. Each one of the 9 great noble families is governing over a certain region in the kingdom, whereas the Royal family is governing over the central region of the kingdom."
" If this is a major city, why there aren't many adventurers in here?."
Sofia looked at me awkwardly after hearing my question.
"There are a lot of adventurers in this city, the reason you never met any is that you come to the guild pretty late. I am assuming you wake up pretty late, is that right?."
" I guess."
" Well, most of the adventurers wake up early and come here to pick the quests they are going to do."
"Is that so?."
It seems that I am as lazy as I was back in my original world.
" If you want to meet adventurers try to wake up earlier."
" I'll try."
" Good. Now, are you going to do some quests today?."
"Ah, yes. I was thinking if I can try a kill quest."
" A kill quest, huh?. Head to the board over there, it has quests and jobs."
When I was about to head to the quest board, Sofia stopped me.
"Ah, wait, wolf."
" Yes?."
" It is pretty dangerous doing quests alone when you are still F-rank."
" I guess it is."
" Would you like to join a party of adventurers?."
" A party, huh?. Well, I guess it would make things easier and less dangerous."
" That's right. So, how about it?."
" Sure, I'll join a party. Do you have any recommendations for me?."
" Well, a new party of F-rank adventurers just registered and they are out doing their beginner's test. When they will return I will inform them, so try to come to the guild early tomorrow."
"You got it."
" Be careful while doing your quest and good luck!."
I went to the quests board to find a good kill quest.
" Let's see!."
I started reading all the quests that were hanged on the board, after a while, I chose the quest I'm going to do.
" I will do this quest."
I took the quest paper back to Sofia so she can confirm the quest I chose.
"This is an E-rank quest, are you sure you want to accept it?."
" Yes, I'm sure."
" Okay, Good luck with your quest."
I accept a kill quest, to finish this quest I have to kill 5 boars.
On my way to the forest where the boars are, I stopped by the potions merchant to buy some healing and mana potions.
I exited the town through the east gate and headed to the nearby forest to kill the boars for my quest.

After walking for about 30 minutes I arrived at the entrance of the forest.
" Okay, let's do this!."
I hyped myself and entered the forest.
.
.
" Where are these damn boars?!."
I kept searching for boars for about 1 hour, but no luck.
After 20 more minutes, I found a group of boars. There were about 15 boars in that group.
" They are a little too much for me to handle, but I think I'll manage."
I decided to approach carefully. After getting close to the group of boars, I jumped out and hit the nearest one with all my might using my sword. The first boar died just like that.
The rest of the group noticed me and decided to attack me all at once.
After mentally preparing myself, I screamed.
"let's do this!."
The moment I said that all the boars attacked me.
I thought that I might struggle to fight these many boars, but I seem to have gained some experience in fighting after my short fight with Gwaythen.
I kept dodging the boars' thrusts and striking them. Among that group a huge boar stood out, this one seemed to be their alpha. The rest of the boars stopped fighting and stepped aside for their alpha to face me 1 on 1.
" Is it a challenge you want?."
After saying that to the alpha boar, I readied my sword that is now soaking with the blood of the boars.
The alpha boar lowered its head and planted its front hooves on the ground, preparing to thrust.
I waited for it to do its thrust when it did I swiftly dodged it and quickly planted my sword in its neck. After killing the alpha boar I felt a surge of power entering my body, I knew what this sensation meant, it meant that I just gained a level.
When the group saw their alpha die, they all started running to save their lives, I quickly looked around and saw that I only killed 4 boars including the alpha.
" Tch, I need one more."
I clicked my tongue and started chasing after one of the escaping boars. I couldn't catch up to it, so I throw my sword at it from distance and I managed to strike it. After being hit by my sword, the boar kept on running and after a short distance it stopped and fell to the ground motionless.
" And this is the fifth one."
I felt some kind of guilt after saying that, but it can't be helped the strong lives and the weak die in this world.
" Now, what did Sofia say I should do after finishing the kill quest?."
I tried to remember what Sofia told me I should do after finishing a kill quest.
" Oh, I remember. She said I should take a prove from the killed monster."
Sofia told me that any part of the monster would serve as a proof, so I took the boars' heads with me.
" It's noon, I should head back now that I finished this quest."
After storing the boars' heads in my warehouse I decided to head back to town to deliver the heads and receive my reward.
While walking back to town a man blocked my way.
" Hold up, young man!."
This man was wearing dirty clothes and holding an old short sword in his hand.
" What do you want?."
I asked the man, but he looked at me with eyes that seemed to want to do harm.
" I saw you kill that Alpha boar earlier!."
"And?."
From his tone, I knew he wasn’t an adventurer.
" And I would like you to give me its head, it will fetch me a good price."
" Why would I do that?."
" you will do it if you don't want to die here."
After he said that, he readied his short sword.
"Are you a beggar or what?."
"A beggar? I am a bandit, you bastard!"
This man seemed to be a bandit, and he wanted to take the alpha boar's head to sell it. But who in the world would declare themselves as bandits while being all alone?
After he screamed that, he ran at full speed with his short sword drawn, I dodged it without any effort.
I knew he was serious when he said he would kill me to take the boar's head, so I decided to fight him seriously. I readied my sword and I started parrying his strikes.
After parrying the bandit's strikes, I thrust my sword into his abdomen with my full strength.
My sword was in the bandit's abdomen, and he looked at me with shocked expression and blood started coming out of his mouth. After I pulled out my sword the bandit fell to the ground motionless, my hands were trembling and I started vomiting.
" I-I killed a man……"
I was shocked and my head was hazy. I couldn't walk and couldn't stop my hands from trembling.
I leaned on a trunk of a nearby tree to try and calm myself down.
After a while, my hands stopped trembling, but not entirely.
" I-I just killed a man…."
I thought about my first kill again, I started vomiting and trembling once again.
I dragged my heavy body back to the city.
Everyone I passed by looked at me awkwardly, seeing how pale and trembling I was.
I entered the adventurers guild, it was full of adventurers talking and laughing, but I couldn't focus on them and headed to where Sofia's desk was.
" H-here I brought you the proof for the quest….."
" Are you alright? What happened?."
" I-I…"
I couldn't talk, Sofia looked at me and said.
" Follow me!."
She took to a room in the back and brought me a cup of cold water.
"Tell me what happened? You are pale and trembling."
"I-I… I killed a man."
