Hungry

Blaze : "...what, the hell are you talking about? system! come back and properly explain it to me"

System with its google assistant like emotionless voice : ["Dear user, you are a transmigrated being and so your role is different compared to other people here. We are well aware of your wishes and so in alliance with your and our goals, you must complete the task given to you in a given time frame. Failure to do so may result in disastrous consequences. The punishment ranges from change in the causes of known future events to possible life threatening situations. So please do your best."]

Blaze : "And I assume you wont tell me who this 'we' is referring to and how you know I transmigrated here"

System: ["That is correct"]

Blaze: "Well , ok. So, what's the first quest?"

System's screen displays : 

[Quest 1 : Save Frore's life in his first dungeon raid and introduce yourself to him.

Time limit : till sun down.

Failure : ---]

Simple enough. With my skills , rank and stats a C- rank dungeon boss monster is no big deal, As, he has this thought , he starts walking but soon realizes there is a major issue with this; first , he doesnt know where he has to go and second he is hungry. Well that's obvious , since he just woke up and its early morning.

"Do you have something like a navigation system or a map?", Blaze asked.

["Yes , user. You can use it in your status window screen. It's on the top left corner of your screen"]

Unsurprisingly, it does have a google map type navigation system that can take him anywhere he wishes to go. "How convenient." Blaze commented before opening his inventory. Thankfully, the system is not stingy it has already prepared some money and a nice residence in the capital for him . Otherwise, he would have to starve till he gets his first pay check from the association.

He buys some fruits and vegetables at the local village market. Then , he remembers something. "Come to think of it , that guy must not have eaten properly for days. His adoptive parents were shit , to think they would kick out a 15 year old child ; just cause he awakened as an F- rank , support class hunter. And, also cause they have a biological kid now....disgusting pieces of crap!" And, so he buys extra fruits for Frore.

Now , he is all set . But , there is still one more thing he needs to do; before he goes out to start his quest. That is, to register himself with the National Hunter Association (or, N.H.A. for short) to become eligible to enter a dungeon and get a hunter's licence. 

The capital of Aswalt empire , the city named Jadestine was about 120 km from here , that was where the N.H.A.'s headquarters was located. It would take him barely 30 minutes to reach there with his 'Walking on air' skill. 

The city is lively with high rise buildings full of modern architecture. It was really beautiful . But, there was something bothering Blaze at the moment , that he did not pay much attention to his beautiful surroundings. 

He was contemplating whether he should really register himself with the association or just break into the dungeon , while standing in front of the association's tall building. The reason for this was really simple. 

It will be really inconvenient for me , if it is revealed that i am a SS-rank hunter. Firstly, because i don't want to attract people's attention right now. And, secondly, beacuase i won't be able to justify why someone with my rank wants to go to an E-rank dungeon. Let's just look in my status window , if there are any useful skills to deal with this issue. 

Unexpectedly, he really does have such a skill; 'Rank Manipulator [Lvl ???]' , with this skill he can even fool a being of the tower in believing he was a low rank hunter, nevermind the N.H.A.'s rank determining test. 

As he thought, the test went smoothly and his result was a D- rank , combatant class. His licence was also completed in 2 hours , while that was going on , he bought the gate key of that E- rank dungeon. In the reasons column of the gate key form , he specified that he wanted to learn while watching experienced hunters who were already inside the dungeon. With his registration completed , he walked away from the association's building without a worry on his mind.
