《Arden's place》Chapter 6

“So you want to be an Adventurer?”
After Arden and Matt had their breakfast, they were standing with 2 dozen other people on the training ground behind the adventurer guild for Adventurer training. Everyone attending the training was listening intently to what the man in front of them had to say. The man was middle-aged, with a tall and athletic body. He had a sword attached to a belt that hung around his waist. The man continued to speak after a deep sigh.
“If you are starting this business hoping to break into a dungeon and find a legendary treasure, my advice to you is to leave immediately. If you think adventurism is child's play, my advice is to leave. This isn't a job that takes place in hotbeds behind city walls. Most of the time you will have to sleep hungry and wet in the wild, a difficult and arduous job where you are face to face with death at any moment.”
The man sighed when he saw that no one had moved. Obviously, this wasn't his first training for new members.
“Since you haven't left yet, let's get started. My name is Edward Well. you can call me ed for short. I am a member of the White lions team, which is the silver level adventurer team. I will be your trainer for the next 3 weeks.”
“Well, Is there anyone among you who does not know the team classifications?”
Seeing the two raised hands, Edward brought his hand to his face.
"Wonderful. Anyway, Adventurer teams are divided into 5 in order: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Gem, Legend. When you finish training and join a team or start taking tasks alone, your class will be bronze. Then you have to complete the quests to upgrade the class. Of course, there are a few other things, but you can learn them when the time comes, it doesn't matter at the moment.”

The trainees glanced at Arden and Matt, then turned to listen to Edward again. Their ignorance made them stand out among the trainees. Not in a good way.
After Edward had told one of the most basic information, he spoke again.
“Yes, in our first lesson you will learn how to start a fire with just a knife. Many of you may be wondering why we give private lessons to make fire when there are spells or skills. If you don't want to die when you don't have enough mana to use magic, you better listen carefully because learning this has saved my and my team's lives more than once. There are knives prepared for you behind you, and come with a piece of wood.”
The lesson continued until noon. Edward explained the intricacies of making a fire in all weather conditions. When a fire is lit in the campsite, when does it need to be extinguished and many more. The sun was directly overhead when Arden and Matt came out of their first lesson. Both were able to successfully light a fire.
Arden understood how important it was to be able to start a fire, through some of the stories Edward told. Edward talked about many situations. Some of these are times when a fire can be lit while chasing bandits, or the direction of the wind is important when hunting a wild beast. Arden thought that the 1 gold he had to leave was well spent.
“After we eat, let's get these land titles and I still need to go to the worker guild I need to talk about the design. Are you coming with me or have you found something else to do?” said Arden.
“No, after we get the land title, I want to go to the library and read some books on Adventurers. It was a little embarrassing today"
Arden nodded as if to say 'agree' and smiled. Then they went to the city council building after having dinner near the city center.

After learning from the reception where the title deeds were given, they came to the room shown. Since the door was closed, Arden knocked on the door and entered.
They entered a medium-sized room. A male elf was sitting at the table. He stood up when he saw Arden and Matt walk through the door.
“Hi I’m Akkis I suppose you came for the Land Deed?” he said, pointing to the chairs in front of the table, motioning for them to sit down.
“Hi, my name is arden. We are here for the title deed of lands 38-39 and 40,” Arden said.
Having learned the Numbers of the Lands, the Elf headed for the cupboard behind the table and after a bit of tinkering took out 3 deed scrolls. And he sat down at the table again.
"How will you pay.?"
Arden was a little taken aback by this question. Was there a payment method other than gold?
“In gold,” he said, reaching into the inside pocket of his Jacket and pulling out a pouch.
The pouch was a magical pouch. Although there was no opportunity to examine it due to the risk of being noticed in the caravan, they had the opportunity to examine it in detail when they were alone in the petra. It was enlarged with magical runes inscribed on the pouch. It had an area of 1m3. Arden took out a total of 37 gold coins and counted them down on the table in front of the elf.
The elf was a little confused when he saw the scene before him.
“Arden, right? “You are very brave, Mr. Arden,” he said.
"I do not understand"
The elf felt compelled to explain. "Payments are usually made by checks of the banks guild. As far as I understand from your Aura, although you are not a high level, you carry such a large amount with you"
“Oh, was there such a thing?”
Realizing that the elf couple was unaware of such a method, he wanted some help.
“Although Petra is pretty safe from theft, my advice to you is to open an account with the Banks guild right away, or you may be the target of a few unwanted people who smell the gold.”
“Thanks, Mr.” Arden said.
"Yes, let's come to the title deeds, I need a few drops of blood, I wonder who owned the lands 38-39?" said the elf
“Mine,” Arden said.
“What was your full name?”
“Arden Greybound,” said arden
“Okay, here you have to bleed. When your blood drips, your mana signature, which is unique to you, will be engraved on paper. We will keep a copy of the deed of the lands.”
Arden looked at the four papers in front of him. He took out the dagger he had obtained from the Adventurers' guild and cut a cut on his thumb.
After making sure that all the papers were covered in blood, the elf handed Arden two papers.
"Congratulations" he said
Realizing that it was his turn, Matt stood up.
"Matt Wolf" said
After repeating the same procedures as Arden, they were done.
“Thank you for the information, Mr Akkis”
“It was no big deal,” he said, and waved his hand left and right.
Arden and matt put the Deeds in the magic pouch and then put them in the town square.
“I think we've got another job,” Matt said with a smile.
“We're pretty lucky we didn't encounter a thief,” Arden said.
"Come on man, let's get this done, then I want to go to the library"
The two made their way to the Bank guild building.
