"A G-rank?" Mr. Hai asked as Zinn replied "Yes I'm rank G-improver and between level 20-40 as for my recent fight to level up" and putting a knot on the faces of Mr. Hai and Sera.
"Then you fought us at level 20 below right" said Sera with a shocking look and Zinn nodded as he asked what was wrong with that, which they said nothing was really wrong.
'Why are they asking me of the level I was when we first took a fight? Wait, activate [Appraiser]'
Zinn was talking to himself as he spent some mana to know their status as the screen pop up.

The notification brought Zinn to a shock as he stares at them not believing his eyes and quickly, he apologizes for fighting them when they could just finish him off with a single strike.
They were also at a lost as they knew they went half way of their strength on him and still land a perfect attack on him at his lowest stage as they nodded in respect to him as someone to become great in the future.
Seeing his apologetic behave made them a bit calm as he sees them as a friend and they have to maintain the friendship so as to prevent any war against them in the future.
"We are not angry about the decision and in case you change your mind; we will still have you back as she is the second princess of Elain and I hope you understand" said Mr. Hai as he noticed how he lied that he is married.
As the reach the kingdom gate and had their identity check with Zinn as one of their members, the knight allowed them inside as they heard for a hotel and asking Zinn if he would join them.
Zinn quickly declined the offer and got down from the carriage thanking them once again before disappearing into the street.
"Is he truly married, Mr. Hai?" asked Princess Filia and he replied "No princess, he just made it up to prevent any misunderstanding or to make it look like he didn't like you, but in his eyes, he seems to like you" making the princess feel relief.
She watches in his direction and wishing to meet him again, which they went inside to do their own things.
On the streets of Tatus, Zinn was before a shop that have a symbol of 'POACHER' on it and had in front of the man a table full of monster parts that he collected. "This would cost 149gold coins but since it is a culture season, I'll give you 150gold coins and how do you see it?" the poacher said and Zinn who knew he was being generous accepted it.
After receiving his money, Zinn walked miles to the academy and did his registration that cost him almost all his cash he had leaving him 200silver coins.
"I guess this outfit would go into storage tomorrow, I should be closer to an ink to settle for the night" thought Zinn as he by passed a weapon shop where he noticed the low price.
Quickly, he came back and check the price of daggers, which he found four daggers of common grade cost 50silver coins so he bought eight with 100silver coins left and asked for a cheap ink that was directed to him.
"One room, a small bed, bathroom and small table for the night please" said Zinn as the receptionist quickly told him "That would cost 70silver coins please" as he hands her the money as she showed him his room.
Zinn asked "Please, can I get any nice dish for 30silver coins?"
"Sure, it would be sent to you right away" replied the receptionist and Zinn give her the money.
He went inside and took his bath as he washes his clothes leaving them hanging, which he changes to a normal outfit of black top and down before taking his meal.
He laid on the bed as he closed his eyes and ponder over what happened in just these few days, he meets the princess of one of the elves kingdoms as his eyes became heavy.
He was fast gone and didn't notice until he found himself back to the darkness as he was floating once more, but it happened after some hours of sleeping.
Zinn was not sure of what was happening again but he knows the strange aura that was flowing around him and just like he knew, he appeared in the domain of shadows.
He saw the place to be black and white as he sniffed the suspicious breath out as he watches the sky before surveying the place clear fully.
