Villain's Valor: A Noble Fantasy Resurrection-Chapter 32 - : Guild

The next morning, we woke up and brushed our teeth at the same time; luckily, I brought two... Later, Elsa decided to take a bath first, and I decide to bathe after her.

We went down to the hall where the adventurers were already eating. We sat in an empty spot. While I was checking the menu, I suddenly overheard an interesting conversation.

"Hey, did you hear about the massacre in zone 2?"

"How could I not hear! Gods, it was a complete pity. They were a good group on the rise, but they underestimated the beasts. Although not very intelligent, they like to hunt in groups, and once you fall into their trap, you have to fight against a large number of them."

Sigh. "It can't be avoided. Not even their remains were found. It's a shame. They were good kids, but you know, they say they were deceived."

"Wait, what do you mean?"

"Well, rumors say they bought a map that led them to a hidden treasure in zone 2, exactly in the Caves of Oblivion."

"Caves of Oblivion, wait! Ah, are you talking about the place where these abominations are?

I saw from the corner of my eye how the woman shuddered, and her expression was filled with absolute fear.

"Yes, you're right, it's that damned place."

Reflecting on what I just heard, it reminded me of a time when this place was a death zone. You can't fully trust a person, but I never heard of the Caves of Oblivion. It sparked my curiosity about that place.

Snapping out of my thoughts, I heard the sound of the plate on the table. I ordered two fried eggs with a meat pie and a cup of coffee. Surprisingly, coffee exists. Elsa ordered only one egg with bread and coffee. Watching her eat, I smiled a bit and said,

"You know, at your age, you should eat more to develop well, you know."

"Shut up!"

Haha, it always feels good to tease her a bit.

After eating and thanking the staff, I asked Maria for a place to buy clothes for my sister. She told us there was a clothing store about 2 blocks to the right.

Elsa chose her clothes herself, but I recommended that she buy clothes with greater flexibility for combat. She bought a few more personal items for herself and a kind of wizard's robe, spending a total of 20 silver coins. I didn't need to buy anything since I brought some from home.

All the clothes Elsa bought had the option to be stored in my ring, but she refused, with a slightly embarrassed face. Damn, I made that mistake. It would be uncomfortable for her to ask me for her clothes every time she wants to change or take a bath. I apologized; I didn't mean to do it that way. It was just to keep them safe from any kind of theft. She only gave me some garments in case of an emergency.

We headed to the only guild in the city that was in this place. It was right in the middle. Since it was the only guild, it was very large. Also, according to what I investigated yesterday, the guild master is in the Diamond rank.

The guild was named "Lights in the Eternal Darkness." Although the name is a bit long, I found it suitable. Not only because this place keeps the creatures in check and kills them regularly, preventing stampedes or an over-accumulation of them. If this happens, the creatures come out of the forest and ravage everything in their path. It already happened once, wiping out an entire village. No one survived. The kingdom decided to create a city to avoid future problems, so, correct, the guild is funded by the kingdom, giving it great importance and prestige to this place. Although not everything is rosy, in every good thing, there is a bad thing. One cannot live without the other, and this city is no exception.

Looking at the guild in front of me, I couldn't help but marvel. It's almost 1 kilometer wide and about 10 stories high. Its walls are made of white marble decorated with golden paintings. There are guards defending the place in case of fights between adventurers or hunters; you can recognize them with those two names.

The doors are very large, 3 meters high. Upon entering the place, it gives an atmosphere of elegance. The floor is white with decorations of small plants and large windows that allow the sun to enter. The supports are of a crystalline black color.

"Wow, this place is incredible," says Elsa. I couldn't agree more with her. It's very beautiful. There is a mural on the left, it's too big. It's as if this place were made for giants. Looking at the mural, I realize that they are missions. Around it, people are gathered, chatting about the available missions.

I feel a presence approaching our direction. Looking at the person, she is dressed in an elegant black suit. Her legs are too high, covered with a black mesh. She is a human woman.

"Welcome to the guild 'Lights in the Eternal Darkness.' I would like to know what you are looking for in this place."

"We come to register as adventurers," I reply calmly. She is strong, in the maximum-gold rank, a hunter in the C rank.

With a smile on her face, she asks us to follow her.

"To prevent people from lying about their rank, a sphere was created that identifies in which rank you are. This way, we avoid people choosing missions that exceed their capabilities and dying in battle."

Nodding my head, I understand. The promise of being a hunter is very good, but there is always danger, death by your side every moment you explore the forest. You don't know if you will come back alive or not.

She led us to a small room in the middle of which was the sphere. Putting my hand on it, it starts to shine in a yellow tone.

"Congratulations, sir, you have become a hunter of rank D."

Sighing to myself, I'm glad it worked. Yes, the sphere detected me as silver. My plans were going down the drain.

The next turn was Elsa's. The sphere shone the same way as mine, but the color was different, brown.

"Congratulations, miss. It's rank F."

With the same smile and joy, she said it. Indeed, she is a professional in her job.

"I would like to form a group with my sister," I quickly told her. I don't want her to advertise me once we leave.

I could see a hint of amusement in her eyes, quite cunning.

"Of course, sir. No problem, but it has to have a name."

"It will be called 'Losts'."

I say with a smile.
