《The Girl Lost in the World of War》Chapter 4- Quests and Training
Advertisement
"Here you go!"
I receive the reward money, five copper coins.
Currently I'm back in the guild confirming the completion of my request.
Since I've finish the quest early, I have a lot of time and since there's a training ground at the back of the guild, I took the leisure to train in it for a while.
Since people on the guild lessen because they take subjugation quests I can train as I want. Subjugation quests are more profitable than normal quests so a lot of adventurers take it.
I held my halberd firmly, in front of me are a wide empty space.
There are also straw dummies stuck on the ground for practicing and also several weapons at the side.
"Let's try this new halberd then!"
I charge directly at the dummy and point my halberd towards it. I struck the dummy's lower part and raise my halberd together with the dummy and throw it.
As it descend on the ground, I ran towards its landing spot, before it hit the ground, I swung the ax part of the halberd sending the dummy flying.
"Ops~ my bad! This weapon is rather impressive, it's more lighter than my weapon back in the arena."
I continued my training and each day I would take a gathering quests, and when I have time I would train by myself in this training ground or any empty space.
After a month of training and taking gathering quests, I am ready to take my first subjugation quest.
"You seem a little happy today Hal!"
"Ah, Ms. Matilda! It's because I felt that today is a special day, hehe."
"Really? And since this is a special day I prepared something for you."
"Waah! Thank you!"
Ms. Matilda gave me a lunch box wrap in a pink cloth.

"Your welcome!"
Ever since I came to this inn, I always talk to Ms. Matilda when she have time, I also talk to other people that are staying in this inn. For some reason though, the people staying are getting fewer. It gets lonely sometimes when your alone in the cafeteria.
I took the usual road towards the guild. After I enter, I greeted the bald man, Grunt.
"Yo Hal! Doing gathering quest again?"
"Well, today might be a special day."
"Hmm? And why is that?"
"I'm taking my first subjugation quest, hehe."
"Ku! Are you sure Hal-chan? I can assist you!"
"I'm fine already! And everybody in this guild should stop treating me like a child."
After a month in this guild, I've began to be friends with the people in here. Grunt-san was the person that tried to stop me when I registered to be an adventurer. After a while, I start talking to them. I told my circumstances with them, but I hide the thing about me in the arena of course. I'm an orphan and a former slave, I also had a sister which is also a slave. Me and my sister are together in a slave shop, but one man brought me alone and I left my sister there. After a while, I ask my owner about my sister, and he told me that he was already sold. After working and working, I brought myself out of slavery. And here I am ~ that's what I told them.
"Oh! Have mercy on this soul!"
They started to treat me like a child after then and also they treat me with foods and other stuff like clothes. I also met the guild master, the guild master is rather young looking, blonde hair and beautiful blue eyes. Also, the guild master know my identity.

After my registration, since the guild have all the adventurers profile, he knew my status and also my origin.
He interviewed me privately, we talked about me becoming an adventurer.
I told him that I want to live in peace and leisure.
"That's a lie, I already talk to your last owner. The arena master, Mr. Gideon."
"Then..."
"You want to find your sister and buy her from her owner."
"..."
That is the truth.
"But I'm not lying about living in peace and leisure, I want to live that life with my sister."
I also told him about me hiding from several people, he agreed to hide my personal info and help me find my sister.
"I do this because an adventurer in my guild are in trouble. This is a duty of the guild master."
He smiled at me.
Till this day, he support me from the shadow.
"I want this quest please."
"Ah! Hal-chan, you really are doing this huh?"
"Of course! I can't earn enough money just in gathering you know."
"But-"
"Okay!"
"Well, your an adventurer I guess..*sigh."
The usual receptionist gave me the quest paper.
