《Ares》Chapter 12 --------- Uproar in the Capital
Advertisement
A few weeks have past by since I graduated and I am now enjoying my time with my family and friends.
"Mars come on don't space out. I want to go to the adventurers guild and accept a few easy quests. Because without you coming along my father would of had had never allowed me to go on a quest."(roland)
"Yes I am coming you don't have to run you know. The adventurers guild won't run away now would it."(mars)
We arrived at the adventurers guild that looked like any normal guest house made out of wood and entered it. This time we didn't see a scene like the last timeand were able to go to the receptionist without a problem.
"Excuse me do you have any easy quests for picking flowers or to defeat slime for us?"(mars)
"Oh Yes but are you sure about fighting slimes. Thea might be weak but there attacks still sting."(receptionist)
"Yes" I said and showed her my emblem and the royal decree for Rol or else he won'tbe able to come with me.
"Silence........ Okay these are the quests that you asked for there is no time limit but if you can't complete these quests there is a penalty. For each quest you have to have the required rank. Do you have an adventurers card?(receptionist)
I said no and we paid 10 eath coins each and she gave us 2 cards one for the guild and one for ourselfs.
We were told to insert either mana or a drop of blood into each card. After we infused our mana into the cards. The cards colour changed from the original metal colour to black with golden lines for me and for Rol it changed into a light orange colour.
The receptionist first looked at Rol's card with astonishment and after thatlooked at mine with shock and withsome fear mixed in.

She told us thatthe cards were ranked like this:
Red
Orange
Yellow
Green
Blue
Violet
Silver
Gold
Black
Black with Silver lines
Black with Gold lines
Red being the weakest and Black with Gold lines being the strongest. They were further split in light, middle and dark.
Light being the weakest in that colour category and dark being the strongest.
For example light yellow would be weaker than yellow and yellow being weaker than dark yellow.
She aslo told us that there was a legendary colour that hasn't been seen for a Millenia and the clour is platin.
The one that had been last seen was a woman named Glac Ice and was someome of the elven continent.
Legends also say that when you reach platin card you would become the next emperor of the 4 continents.
"Well we will be going now."(roland)
We gave her a 1 moon and went out of the guild heading to the forest. We arrived at the forest 15 minutes later and began our hunt for slimes.
After 3 hours we completed 10 of our 20 quests and went back to the guild to exchange them for our reward.
The same receptionist gave us 20 planet and we decided to do the rest tomorrow.
While we were heading back we talked about Rol's coming 4th birthday and mine a week after his and decided to make it a party were only close family were invited.
We also talked about rules that were normaly not spoken about and I learned something new.
That is that you are not allowed to fight on your birthday and neither are your guests. This rule i only action on your birthday and the next day everything will be back to normal. As this rule was made by a god no one can disobey it.

I told Rol about one of the graduants rules and he was shocked that something like this existed. Because you were not allowed to kill nor fight with someone when your or someone elses life was not on the line or when it isn't contained in the mission or quest.
Rol thought that this rule can truelly endager the graduants life because even if you are not in danger of losing yourlife you can still be kidnapped without a problem.
And even worse because of me being a noble and a child I would be the perfect targetto kidnap and to be sold as a slave because of my strong and robust body.
After our little chat we arrived at the palace and told uncle about our little adventure and after telling him my story I went back to my parent's mansion.
Thanks for reading and I hope that you enjoyed my story even with these strange turn of events.
You can also think of some ideas that I can use in the story so that it will become more interesting.

If he wishes to survive, he must learn not only how to harness this strength but how to grow and expand it, altering the path of those around him. What he doesn't know is that he's found himself involved in a terrifying plot hosted by those demons of old, a game of sorts to decide the fate of Midnight. Does Deus have what it takes to survive, or has he found himself trapped in a plot he has no hope of escaping? Note: This story has a slow-build and takes awhile for the pace to get going.

Heavy emphasis on world-building and character creation and progression. --------------------------------------------------------------- • Release Schedule • Chapters will be released weekly, with some occasional alterations throughout.

Scenario 66
Silven isn’t too happy when he stops to consider his miraculous prison escape, a guiding voice on the air and the herd of terrifying black knights hunting him down and realises he may be important. Equally, he’s not going to be too happy when he learns he’s nothing more than a character in a video game in chapter 3.8. There’s just no pleasing some people. But by the time of this realisation, Silven is all-powerful and all-arrogant, with a couple of game-breaking businesses under his belt. And when he finally understands he has been meddling with the very fabric of his own reality, the damage may already have been done. This fiction contains: * Approx. 4,342,213 video game tropes, mechanics and cliches * Very light levelling and business development (but no tables. Other than the one on the cover). * A rather acquired taste in dry, sarcastic humour. * 0 dragons. Why no dragons, man? Chapters will be released EVERY DAY, in order to sufficiently punish you for all the bad things you've done in life.
