Ancient Adventurer Return

It had been two weeks since Yama had called them. And during this whole time, Bora and Katarea continued to complete quests. They always chose the quests that would ask them to go to dungeons or monster zones. They hadn't really become stronger, but they were now used to fight bosses. Bora was finally able to fight against a Boss without having to use his expensive skills.

After completing so much quests, they started to receive some attention from the guild. Other mercenaries had seen them fight and they naturally talked about it. The combination of a man and a Djinn was rare, so they became quite famous. They were the most interesting rookies of the guild. Which wasn't incredible given how unimportant the mercenary guild was.

That was something that Bora discovered pretty soon. Japan heavily relied on Knights orders and magician clans, as such the guilds were useless or atleast people considered them useless. What shocked him even more was the fact that there existed schools for Knights and magicians, but there wasn't even just a formation center for hunters or mercenaries. Japan was one of the only country in the world that worked like that.

While Bora was busy learning anything he could today's world, Katarea was doing something else. She was becoming paranoid. For some reasons, everytime they went outside she felt as if someone was watching them. Sometimes she felt like she was being watched by a powerful being, and other times she felt like someone was just behind them, watching them from behind a corner.

It was driving her mad but Bora didn't notice and Yoru refused to say anything about this. What stressed her even more was the fact that Yoru obviously knew something, but he refused to say anything.

However this didn't matter as much as their current work. With all the quests they had done, they now had enough items to sell it to Yama. That's why they were currently walking towards the Hunter's guild.

*****************************

{ Yama's P.O.V }

Ever since I became the Vice-President of the Hunter's Guild, I became the leader of all the hunters in Japan. The president was an old man, he was insanely powerful but except scheming in his mansion he did nothing.

I alone had to carry the whole Guild, and it wasn't easy. I mean you just had to look at what I did a few weeks ago to know how bad the situation was. I need to buy items from a duo of rookie mercenaries to equip my hunters. All the items were given or sold to the knights pr magicians, so we had pretty much nothing. Oh we had a lot of money, but we couldn't buy anything. And since Japan had chosen to play the selfish card we couldn't trade with foreign guilds.

But I had a good feeling. Most guild's presidents would laugh at my face if they knew that I placed my hopes on two rookies, but I was still doing it. They had a way to get perfect copies of the same items. I knew only two types of people who could do that. The first had disappeared and the second was something I didn't want to approach. Either they were a new type, which was good, or they were the second type, and if that was the case.....I just hoped the police would remain as useless as it is now.

But enough about those dark thoughts. The rookies were here, one of the staff members had called me to tell me they had entered the building a few minutes ago, and were discussing with Hanabi.

« They are here » Said my assistant. I nodded and he opened the door. The man and the Djinn stepped inside and immediately sat on the couch. The man, Bora , was smiling like a fox, while the Djinn was merely looking at me with an expression that said: « You better not try to mess with us. ». But well, it's not like I wanted to scam them. I had money, they had items, we'll all be happy at the end.

The room was silent, Bora and I were smiling at each other while my assistant just looked at the ground. The Djinn then put the bag she had in her hand on the table and opened it. She emptied it on the table and....

« H-How ?! » I asked. I was a calm person, but that was too much. Seeing Bora's smile, I knew he was waiting for this to happen. Even my assistant was gasping !

Those two rookies had brought me a lot, and I mean a loooot of crafting materials. I don't know how all this could fit in this bag but I did not care. There were also copies of the necklace they both had. 10 perfect copies of a powerful necklace, those necklaces alone would be pretty expensive.

« You only got crafting materials ? » I asked. I was pretty surprised by this. I thought they only wanted to sell me crafting materials, however Bora's bitter smile proved me wrong.

« We've been lucky when it comes to the crafting materials...However that's all we've got. Seems like it's difficult to get anything else. » He said and I had to nod at that. It was nearly impossible to find anything else than crafting materials in low tier dungeons. Though those materials were still quite good. With all those he could make some good equipments for atleast five teams of hunters.

« Well it doesn't really matter. Show me your God's Bracelet and I'll pay you for all those. » I said. Bora looked confused but nodded nonetheless. He then walked towards me and showed me his God's Bracelet. I was ready to pay with my own bracelet but my apprentice apparently saw something. He had the ability to see what was written on other people's bracelet. However his reaction wasn't really something I expected.

« G-G-G.....You are a God ?! »
