Registration ... evaluation?.

My stamina stat was still decreasing but i wasn't able to sleep .

My brain was bulging with thoughts about what happened in these previous hours i got transported into another world with magic and a level up mechanism just like those games that i used to play , i was even deemed as a hero and even begun to imagine myself using magic or doing legendary feats but all my dreams crumbled one after the other .

Because i found out that due to the carelessness and the strong guys i was summoned with Hana and the other girl being this strong was something i can tolerate to some extent but those three scummy guys being stronger than me was something i can never endure .

i was summoned here without a blessing or a job nothing that i can count on to give me some hope in surviving in this horrendous world where creatures like that Kaiju-0 or maybe it was also an illusion created by that crown prince Ogo ohh yeah why did Wallace warn me from the crown prince he won't be willing to attack me because of what happened with his subordinate right ? .

So i'm targeted by a strong group of bandits and a crown prince and 4 heroes with only 20 oh right 19 silver coins i'm in for a tough ride , but at least there were some good news and they were that i was able to found somewhere to stay for the next period of my time in the kingdom of Troland and for free too until i leave this blood sucking kingdom towards maybe the only place i could be able to find a new hope in .

Elohim the kingdom of elves and my target is something only found in the hands of the elves the Roots Of Life something that could help me increasing my mana with my elements affinity and some guidance on how to use magic i can see myself becoming a powerful mage like no other , but It all depends on my ability to get that item .

But for now let's...sleep .

Stamina : 3 .

~The next morning~ .

Hey, wake up already .

Argghh what was all that knocking can't a person rest peacefully even in another world ,oh right another world my appointment with Regard i completely woke up and opened the door .

Hey kid what's with your looks you look like you have insomnia didn't you get enough rest like i told you yesterday .

I tried but i was only able to get a few hours of rest but give me a few minutes and i will be ready to go .

No hurries and take your time Liliana made breakfast and you will find the bathroom at the end of the hallway but don't take so much time otherwise the food might get cold .

Thank you .

Get going already .

I wasted no time and began to head to the bathroom and washed my face with some cold water and a foul smell was coming from my clothes and so i decided that if possible i will need to buy myself a new set of clothes .

I finished getting ready and looked at the mirror on top of the sink my face was still the same but a few dark circles was beginning to form under my eyes don't know if it was caused by the insomnia or if it was something else anyway i began to head down .

Both Regard and ms.Lillian were waiting for me to join them for breakfast but i was quite embarrassed to join them with the current foul smell that my clothes were radiating but my embarrassment didn't last long as i saw ms.Liliana flickering her hands towards me mumbling something then said Clean and a green light came my way and engulfed my clothes and in seconds my dirty school uniform was now as good as new i should ask her to teach me that spell later if possible .

Thank you ms.Liliana .

Don't mention it Ryuu,i can call you Ryuu right ? .

Sure thing ms .

No since i called you Ryuu you need to call me Liliana directly .

Sure thing Liliana .

Kid we were already getting hungry from waiting you don't torments us any longer .

I sat down and had some good breakfast meal something i wasn't able to have in my previous world that much when we finished eating she again used another cleaning spell and cleaned our hands and mouth with it as she began to remove the dishes from the table , this spell was quite handy .

Ready to hit the road , kid .

I took some deep breath and said : Let's go , goodbye Liliana .

Have a nice day Ryuu , but i don't wish the same for you master .

We were out of the inn when he began saying :

That brat is still grumpy about what happened yesterday .

I didn't have anything to say about this so i just stayed silent until i remembered that i want to ask him about something that i noticed in the inn .

Hey Regard am i the only guest staying in the inn ?.

Oh, you noticed the answer is yes and no there are other guests staying in the inn but they are mostly adventurers so they are out there taking some tasks to make a living .

Some are doing some dangerous jobs that require them to stay out of the city for quite some time especially the hunting tasks in the Wicked Forest .

But why would anyone be willing to go to that Wicked Forest isn't it the territory of the Demon king ?.

Fortune and Danger always coexist with each other , and how big do you think the wicked forest is let me tell you it's huge enough that even the influence of that Demon king can't possibly cover all of it but it's still a land filled with dangers but also filled with treasure troves waiting to be looted , it's still dangerous for someone to go there alone so the Adventurers began to form parties so they could be able to get their hands on those treasure troves but most of those formed parties frequently end with betrayals as greed was the only cornerstone that these parties was being formed on in the first place so be extra careful if you want to join one .

And even if they weren't able to find treasure troves they can still hunt the monsters that lived in there for their valuable organs and ingredients but if someone was weak yet still tried to venture deep looking for wealth and treasure then his only fate will to be devoured by those monsters .

So the conclusion was that as long as you were someone strong on your own or you were able to join some decent party you would be able to earn a living but if you were weak and weren't even able to join a party then going to the Wicked Forest is a pure suicidal act .

You really are in a tight spot .

I thought his last comment was him talking in general about how weak my attributes are but i didn't know that he meant something else entirely until we were in the Adventurer's guild .

How do you know Silver Wallace , Regard ? .

Wallace was a frequent guest at the inn more like a frequent fugitive than a guest , as you felt it yourself beforehand he tends to rip people off so when they realize that they have been ripped off they search for him all over the city and he came to our inn with his sole purpose being to hide from those driven by anger customers .

But since someone recognized him at the inn he don't come frequently as before haha now that i remembered that day he was being chased through the whole city haha .

So he really do have a long history with scamming people .

But selling you that passive skill book for a mana stone was really something else maybe his biggest work so far .

How much can this book actually be worth?.

Between 1 or 2 gold coins maximum and a minimum of 50 to 125 silver coins you see even if the effect is good the people tend to go for an active skills that they can use to their utmost potential and may even have a chance to get them to upgrade more quickly than a passive ones that can only be changed to new ones.

If their holders wanted to increase their strength some more due to their limited blessings to the different attributes so they really aren't in high demand nowadays but there are still rare ones that can be upgraded and can lead to a huge strength improvement in a short time .

But their prices aren't something anyone can afford and as your own skill book Troll Force those kind of skills have requirements too so if you are thinking about selling that skill book of yours i'm sorry to tell you that it will be quite troublesome to sell it in a short time .

Sigh even if i sold it at a low price .

You weren't listening intensively it's not about the price you are selling it with if there is no demand for it .

But you may be able to learn it after you level up for a few times .

I'm not even sure that i will be able to stay alive until i'm able to learn it .

You have a point there .

We both stayed silent for a few seconds until he said take this and handed me a book on its cover it said Novice Swordsmanship another skill book !!! .

I looked in bewilderment to him then to the book now in my hands .

Just take it , that girl Liliana won't forgive me if i left you to die .

Thank you very much for your help, i thanked him and for the first time since i was summoned here i felt warm inside .

But you better learn it as quickly as possible though , it will help you increasing your ranking evaluation at the Adventurer's guild .

I nodded while lowering my head so that he can't see me trying to hold back my tears .

After i was able to calm my agitated emotions a question rose in my mind remembering how Liliana was able to use magic a few minutes ago repeatedly and without looking bothered at all .

Cough old man Regard , i want to ask you something about the incident that happened to Liliana yesterday can i ?.

Oh, what do you want to ask ?.

I noticed that Liliana is able to use magic to some extent so why she didn't counter those guys yesterday from the start ?.

You are quite sharp to be able to ask this question and the answer is that she can't retaliate openly against humans by the law the new king imposed on all the Beastfolk living in the kingdom of Troland .

Is there a certain limit or .... .

Even if they were to be killed on the streets no one would bat an eye and if any of the Beastfolk retaliated against the humans and if that person wasn't able to escape the pursuit of the guards and was caught he will be imprisoned for life or forced to be enslaved for the benefit of the kingdom and if the person who was being hurt or being retaliated against happened to be a noble he would publicly get executed .

But isn't this pure cruelty who would sit in his place waiting to die .

I agree and a lot of people from the kingdom do too but it wasn't enough to change the king's mind .

But as the kingdom of Animagia heard about this law they cut all ties with our kingdom and sealed all the teleportation circles connecting the two kingdom .

Making traveling harder for both parties to travel in and from one another and who can blame them .

Our kingdom is really going overboard in those recent years and was able to only maintained their ties with the kingdom of Terra for some reason unknown .

I was going to criticize the bad management of that trollhead who called himself a king when we finally arrived at the tallest and maybe the biggest building in all of Trond or at least in my opinion the Adventurer's guild the words i was about to say were now stuck in my mouth because i was able to sense it .

A repulsive aura so strong that i felt that i'm going to kneel involuntarily in front of it coming from the whole building towards those who want to enter it .

You were able to feel it that means your instincts are quite good now learn that skill and we will go in to finish your registration .

I weakly nodded and opened the book and read it in a minute or so as the book contained more pictures of sword stances than actual words i then finished the book and again the book turned into light and fused with me i wanted to use Appraisal but didn't as i didn't want to take any risk before the upcoming evaluation but luckily Regard assured me that it was there alright .

As we stood on the doors of the tall building an annoying voice came from the side why was it annoying because it was a high pitched voice and racked of arrogance saying : oh if it wasn't the drunkard Regard did you come here to reminiscing about the past with your fellow losers or did my complaints against you did finally work and you are going to be fired .

I felt Regard tense and even begun to clench his fist yet he smiled sincerely and looked towards the man who was talking and said elegantly : Sorry to disappoint you mr.Bling but your two guesses are wrong as i'm here to supervise this young man adventurer's guild registration and the guild can't fire their retired Adventurers now if you mind we will continue on our way .

Stop right there i didn't...…

He was saying something but i couldn't hear since we entered the building and the door closed directly after we entered .

Who was that guy ?.

The stupid reason for why i was late yesterday don't pay him any mind let's go .

He didn't say anything else and i looked ahead to what was the building looking like from the inside .

The space on the inside of the building was huge like different world completely the things that i could notice was :

What i presumed to be a grand entrance hall as i entered i was greated by a high ceiling adorned with intricate wooden beams that gave the space an airy feeling ,large windows allowing natural light to stream in illuminating the polished wooden floors,weirdly enough they weren't noticable from the outside of the building .

A reception area : a sturdy wooden counter occupies one side of the hall, staffed by friendly guild workers most of them were females who assist newcomers, behind them there was a large map of the kingdom and the surrounding territories hanged on the wall, marked with different colours on some specific locations .

A task board : A prominent bulletin board filled with parchment scrolls and notices of various quests lines one wall, the place around it was crowded by Adventurers , choosing their next job , with opportunities ranging from monster hunting to treasure seeking all accompanied with the same dangerous end Death .

A bar and kitchen : The guild had a bar area where adventurers were currently enjoying their drinks and meals in the food was looking good so it must have been prepared by skilled cooks, i can tell that there was a kitchen in the back from that enticing aroma of roasted meats and freshly baked bread wafting through the air, creating a sense of community and camaraderie anyone seeing them like this they would never have guessed that those guys can sell each other for treasures .

There were a lot of stairs and elevators leading to a lot of different kinds of rooms that i didn't know anything about .

We approached the reception counter and Regard called someone to help me with registration a green haired girl formally dressed in a business attire like those back in my world most of the clothes in this world were similar to my old world i attributed this to those who were summoned before us .

Tina i need your help in registering this young man here are the amount of money needed and here's his ID .

Right away mr.Regard but let me check it first .

All this happened suddenly i wasn't able to tell him that i'm capable of paying for the registration and he even took my ID swiftly .

But something was wrong as the girl kept looking at me then at the ID then back at me before she returned my ID and said : sorry mr.Regard he will have to go through the normal process of evaluation before we can register him there's nothing i can do since his situation is quite special i hope you understand what i mean .
