As soon as the trio left the Colosseum they noticed how much cleaner the air outside was. Standing in there with all these people, one couldn't really notice the lack of oxygen, but once they were standing outside again, they took a few deep breaths, enjoying the clean air.
"So." Said Kyaga. "We gonna start right away?" He wanted to get going as fast as possible now, after losing a bit of time to Rex and Toya.
"Yeah, I guess." Said Shizu unsure. "But what is up with finding Kanagaki now?"
"To be honest," Answered Itaka. "we shouldn't waste any more time. We couldn't find him in the obvious spots, so we should just progress now. There are about ten thousand people in this one city right now. I'm sure we will meet him at one point."
"Yeah, you are probably right." She mumbled. She was pretty worried about his well beings but could understand that there were more important things right now.
"Kanagaki is a big guy, you know?" Said Kyaga, trying to calm her a bit and throwing his arm around her neck in a friendly gesture. "He will know what's right and wrong, or rather what to do and not to do. You know him!" Kyaga had one hundred percent of his trust in Kanagaki, he knew that there was no way he would go into reckless dangers.
"Yeah, he will probably be either searching for us or trying to progress in his world knowledge, he's a smart guy!" Said Itaka before mumbling: "But not as smart as me." Under his breath before starting to obviously fake cough.
The other two looked at him questioningly but just ignored it.
"He said in front of the town, right?" Asked Kyaga to ensure himself again on where to go.
"Yup, I'd say so. There aren't that many locations where berries could be otherwise anyways, so." Answered Shizu
"Yeah, that's right as well..."
"Then let's go!" She said, now also fired up a bit for their first quest, even though it might be the most boring quest ever. But, hey. You gotta take what's available in order to progress to higher things, or not?

Four story anthology
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] [participant in #NaNoWriMo] Preface: This fiction will contain four different stories set up as a challenge for myself and to get better at writing. The challenge for royal road writathon is a 55.555 word goal while the nanowrimo challenge is 50.000 words. Reader suggestions is turned on, feel free to point out errors I missed and I'll fix them up! Chasing sun, napping softly: Cultivation/Xianxia genre. Some parts will poke at the ridiculousness of the Xianxia gerne. We follow the life of a magical fox monster, who doesn't like how the cultivation world works. Said beast seems to have more knowledge than is usual for normal magical beasts. In it's infinite wisdom it decided to search for the main character of the cultivation world to have a cozy and safe place beside him. Our fox will act as a "wise beast" to coast along on the main characters rise to greatness, all for peace, happiness and that amazing napping spot in the sun. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing in first person. Comedic effect between talking vaguely and sounding wise. The cost of heroism: A story more centered around fights and mental health of hired mercenaries/heroes. The world is infected with an eldritch corruption. Humans are trying their best to explore and clear out wilderness and the dungeons hiding in them to establish new cities. Lords seek for hired hands to do the professional work. Thanks to the setting, the story will show how awful pasts are the norm and how pragmatic people became thanks to that. People exchange their sanity for riches, fame and gods acceptance. Interpersonal relationships change drastically and quickly. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing grim scenes/imparting a feeling of how grim the world is. Writing fight scenes. Showing different mental states. Describing their influence on people during fights, walks or even after successful or failed campaigns. Who will be the next powerhouse? : A story about a gaming show, it's host Staan and the different participants. Stereotype characters, stereotype backstories, silly challenges and quizzes. The winner of those challenges gets powerups for their power system. Be it magic, ki, psychic power or anything else imaginable and unimaginable to reach the power of gods. The challenges for myself with this story: A softer tone for storytelling. Making the reader smile and enjoy themselves. A different try at slice of life story. I was left behind on earth as my family conquered another world and enjoys riches, but that's okey because I got a cheat too! : Stereotypical Isekai story parody twisted into an Urban Fantasy story. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing over the top and overdramatic scenarios/scenes Writing in first person. Walking into stereotypical scenarios and making them more dramatic/giving them a twist. Different type of humor.
