Test

The Training Hall was one of the largest areas inside the guild.

It is where adventurers trained, sparred, and took promotion exams. 

Today, however, the usual clamor was drowned out by an overwhelming buzz of excitement and disbelief.

Adventurers pushed and shoved their way inside, eager to watch.

"What's happening?" 

A newly arrived adventurer asked, confused by the commotion.

Another beside him talked. 

"Three people are attempting to rank up directly to Rank A."

The newcomer's eyes widened. 

Three?! And straight to Rank A?! That's impossible!"

It had never been done before. 

The highest anyone had ever jumped in a single attempt was Rank D.

And even that was rare. 

A Rank A test was suicide.

"Who's the examiner?" the newcomer asked.

A grim silence fell over the group before someone muttered: 

"Plavius."
