Xie Tian

Just as the receptionist short circuited from the seemingly normal introduction of August, the steel doors next to the reception counter burst open.

A tall looking archer walked out.

He had 4 stars pinned on his left arm, indicating that he was a Silver grade Adventurer within his class.

"That's...that's the Vice Guildmaster of the Perak branch, Xie Tian!"

"Kyaa!!! Vice Guildmaster Xie Tian, I'm your biggest fan!"

"Woah, so that's the Silver Archer. Incredible, he looks way more dashing in person! Kyaa!!"

Ignoring the majority of female adventurers fangirling after him, he proceeded to take out a high grade scroll before reading out its content loudly.

"The Guildmaster wishes to see August Pranda! Would August Pranda come forward??"

"Yes, I'm August Pranda!"

"No, I'm August Pranda!"

"You fakers! I'm the real August Pranda! Now, bring me to see the Guildmaster!"

Right after Vice Guildmaster Xie Tian helped share out the guildmaster's orders, the entire Adventurers' Guild turned rowdy with hundreds of August Pranda fakers popping up everywhere.

Looking at the chaotic scene in front of him, August guessed that the guildmaster of the Adventurer's Guild was a celebrity respected by everyone here.

Everyone wanted to meet him, even if they lied about their names and origins.

"Uhm…Vice Guildmaster Xie Tian?" Amidst the chaos, the elven receptionist girl raised her hand as she called out to the vice guildmaster.

"Hm, yes? What is it, Lina?" Xie Tian noticed the elven girl immediately despite the tens of people blocking his view.

Ignoring the rowdiness of the present adventurers, he walked towards the reception area where August was still filling in his details into the registration form.

"Senior Silver Archer, where are you going?"

"I heard that you're looking for August Pranda? I know him! Follow me if you want to meet him."

"What bullshit are y'all spouting here? I'm the August Pranda!"

Wherever Xie Tian went, the crowd of trolls would follow after him.

It got to the point where even the vice guild master himself couldn't take it anymore.

"ENOUGH! SHUT UP, ALL OF YOU!!!!" Xie Tian bellowed.

Although his voice wasn't particularly intimidating, his meaning got through everyone perfectly.

The adventurers present shut their mouths before the crowd dispersed altogether.

They did not dare to find out what would happen if they were to stay any longer.

"Anyways Lina, what did you want to say?" As if it wasn't the vice guild master that was venting out his frustrations earlier, Xie Tian wore a calm and collected look as he asked the elven girl.

"Uhm…I heard that the guild master was looking for August Pranda?"

"Ah yes, that was Marklein's request. Do you know who this August Pranda is? And where could I find him? Marklein seemed very anxious when he shoved this job to me."

"Yes..he's right there." Lina nodded her head. She then pointed to a corner of the guild, where a young man with uncombed white hair and messy clothes sat.

Xie Tian was speechless.

'This was the person who his own guild master was so anxious about? This August kid looked like he hadn't taken a shower for months!

And he's so frail, his skin is so pale, he must be someone from the slums, I bet.

Nonetheless, if he is indeed August Pranda, I would have to bring him to go see the guild master, whether I think he looks like shit or not.' Xie Tian thought to himself.

Taking a deep breath to calm himself down, Xie Tian proceeded to walk towards the messy looking person.

When the vice guild master got close to the messy looking person, he had expected to smell a foul odor emanating from the boy's body.

But contrary to his expectations, August had no bad body odor.

No wait, it was more apt to say that August was physically incapable of producing body odor. He was a zombie after all.

Only a certain number of body functions were reanimated along with him.

And producing body odor along with sweat, was not one of them.

Xie Tian became confused at August's appearance.

August was currently sipping on some fruit juice from a wooden mug gracefully. A noble-like air surrounded him as he enjoyed his drink.

Although the teenager in front of him looked messy and weak, the way he sat and acted was like that of a noble.

'Could this kid be a son from a fallen noble family?' Xie Tian wondered.

But before he could wonder for long, August had noticed him.

August finished the last of his drink before he put the mug down. Wiping his mouth with his collar, he looked at Xie Tian and asked, "What's up?"

"Uhh…My friend…The guildmaster would like to see you." Xie Tian fumbled.

Unknown to when it had happened, the vice guild master had suddenly grown really nervous. He was usually only like this when he met nobles though.

"Oh, the guild master? Dang, I didn't think I'd get to meet him this fast." [August]

"I'll now bring you to him." [Xie Tian]

Xie Tian waved his arm once before a portal opened up in front of him and August.

"Get in." Xie Tian ordered. His nervousness was nowhere to be found anymore.
