My World Now

Chapter 26 - Maynh And His Team

Here I am standing in front of the same woman who told me I couldn't be an Adventurer a few minutes ago. Telling her again I want to be an Adventurer. Her reply has changed sense now I look human. She has a huge smile on her face.

As she looks up at me a look of surprise then confusion suddenly spreads across her face as she says, "I'll be happy to help sign you up. I'll need your travel papers, but I don't see your badge." I reach up to where my badge should be and a look of surprise then panic covers my face as I pat myself down pretending to look saying, "Oh no, what happened where did it go? I just had it."

I start looking around on the floor looking frantic. The women behind the desk tries to calm me down as she says, "Don't worry I can help you out. We will just have to issue you another one. We will have to check your stats again anyway. I'll have to charge you 1 gold coin for a new badge is all."

I show a look of relief on my face as I turn back to her and pull my papers and 1 gold out of my Void bag as I say, "Thank you." She takes my papers and the gold and says, "So these say you have a developed Lightning affinity beginner class. I'll just have you put your hands on the plate in front of you. So we can recheck your stats." I place my hands on the plate and she looks surprised as she says, "Apprentice class that's a large jump.

She starts looking over the paperwork and sighs saying, "Issued by Bilge Town. They would make my life easier if they would at least date their travel papers. No matter, I can't change that. As of today you will be come a Adventure of the Azar Adventures guild so this will no longer be a problem. Keep your hands on the plate please." The plate lights up and turns black and cracking down the middle.

The women behind the desk looks shocked as she looks at it and says so loud everyone can hear, "What! Unreadable. Your, your, power level is unreadable." She looks up at a kid with his head in the doorway and says, "Get me a new plate." Everyone is now staring at me whispering can be heard. People in the other room have come to the door to look at me.

As she waits for the new plate she tells me, "Once you have your adventures badge you will no longer need travel papers. You and your party will be able to come and go from any town as long as you check into the receptive guildhall of each town. You will be able to take on requests from the request board in any town you have checked into and in order to keep your license you will be required to take at least one request each month.

A bedroom will be provided for you at your home guildhall. Food is not provided but you can eat in the bar hall. If you wish to change your home guildhall you must inform both guildhalls and fill out the proper paperwork. The library is open at all times on the third floor of most guildhalls. Also you must be tested and assessed once a year to keep your license.

As an apprentice level adventure you are not allowed to go out on any quest until you are assessed by an established adventures group. After that you can go out on any request as long as it isn't listed as Master, and any Alacamit request you take you must have at least two support members. A young human boy with yellow skin and blue hair comes over with a new plate. Once the plate is set in she points to it and says, "again please."

I smile nervously at her and concentrate on holding in my power. In a matter of seconds my hands start to hurt cause the pressure on my hands. I've never tried to hold in my magic energy before. She smiles and I remove my hands from the plate.

She says, "I don't understand what happened the first time but it appears your power potential is higher then normal. It may have been something wrong with the plate. It says here your potential is legendary class congratulations. That's truly amazing. We will expect great things from you. Also I'll sign you up for magic lessons so we can bring out all that wonderful talent you have hidden away." Whispers can be heard all over the place.

"A legend class mage" "

"Amazing wonder if she can live up to her potential."

"Wonder if she is any good"

Yup, I definitely need to look into a way to block or at least fake out these spirit plates or my life will just get harder. As I take my paperwork she motions a man over who is looking at the request board." He is about 6'5, muscular. With orange skin and blue hair. He also has a large sword across his back.

The woman behind the desk smiles as she says, "This is Maynh. Maynh this is our newest member." She looks down at the paperwork and says, "Lizeli. She will becoming with you on your next quest." She looks over to a list behind the desks then says, "Does wolf hunting sound good? They have been attacking the north side farms."

Maynh just smiles and says, "Sounds good. Will it be normal evaluation fee." She smiles and says, "The amount will be deposited into your account as soon as you pass in the results as normal." She then turns to the boy next to her smiles and says, "make sure the guild master sees these at once." He takes the papers and runs off through the door. "This can't be good," I think.

Maynh turns back to me and slaps me on the back saying, "Sorry noob you don't get paid for this one. It's just to see where you are starting from consider it a test. Now let's meet the team, then we shell head out." I follow him over to a group of four people waiting for us next to the request board. Maynh looks at them and says, "This is our newest assignment. We need to assess the noob." I smile and say, "Hello I'm Lizeli nice to meet you."

The first one to answer is a tall girl in leather armor she has a short sword on her hip. She also has a bow with quiver on her back. Her hair is green and her skin is lite orange and she's about 5'11. "Hello I'm Tarna."

Next is a young looking girl maybe 14. She looks shy and has a staff with ruins that go up the handle. On top are four nature crystals. The staff's handle is twisted. Her skin is a lite yellow and her hair is a dark green. "Hello I'm Alez, nice to meet you."

Then a large man steps forward he is about 6'5 and ripped, as in his muscles look like they They have muscles and will pop out of his skin. His hair is blue and his skin is orange. He has a huge smile on his face and two swords across his back. "Yo I'm Farmok"

last is a thin boy dressed all in orange his lower face is covered. He has lite orange skin and lite blue hair. He appears shorter then normal for his age. I'd say around 5'6 and looks to be about 17. On his side is a knife and he appears to have some kind of thin knifes maybe needles strapped to his upper arm.

He doesn't say a word so Maynh says, "This one is Zamh he don't talk much. Anyway that's the crew. So what do you you do?" They all look at me as I say, "Oh yea I'm a lightning mage full class and I'm pretty good with a sword. That basically it so nice to meet you guys."

Maynh takes the lead as we all head out the door. They lead me through town and give me a small tour telling me about things I see. One thing I see is a lot of is signs saying

"nonhumans not allowed"

"Humans only"

"This way for nonhumans"

We pass an area that says, "Cawlway residents," another that says, "Gunic residents."

When we get to the northern gate Maynh pulls out his badge. As soon as the guard sees it he says, "Go right through Sir." We each run our cards across a spirit plate and without any questions he lets us through. Farman says it's just proving the cards are real. We travel through the gates and down the road. After about 30 minutes the first farm comes into sight. When we get there and I don't see one human working the feilds.

There are Limpits, Florensin, Wimpits and three others I've never seen before. As soon as I see them I start feeling hungry and tell myself to calm down. After all there will be time for that later. When no one is looking I turn my eyes back to normal for a second so I can use my clear eyelids and I see one has a gray elemental color, another one has white and the last has blue.

I don't actually get a good look at them as we are passing by but I do see one has green hair and skin, the other has grey hair and skin and the last has white hair and silver skin. That means one thing two are are elementals. We pass by and head to the edge of the woods and we wait as Zamh sets out bait.

He puts out a jar with some kind of red/black liquid. The liquid looks like it's moving the colors swirling together. When he sets it down Tarna is standing next to me and laughs saying, "I've no clue what that stuff is. He's the only one I know who has that stuff, but it drives the beasts crazy." I don't think anything of it till the wind turns it in my direction and I catch a whiff.

The smell is incredible and yet it has very little smell. As the scent seems to dance around me I start feeling dizzy and all I can think about is going towards the smell. Suddenly a hand grabs my shoulder and a voice is far off saying, "Are you ok?"

That snaps me out of it and I shutdown my sense of smell to a human level. I hadn't realized I'd takin a step. I can still feel the pull of that alluring stuff but I can keep myself under control. As I say, "Ya I was just thinking" the girl next to me Tarna looks at me and says, "You just looked out of it for a second." I look over to the young boy who put out that crap and say, "I'm fine thanks for worrying." I know one thing I've got to takecare of this shit and find out more and he probably has some of the answers.
