There wasn’t an answer from Cory when the heads of monster creatures were slayed by the bat lady Arcana sitting behind the desk in front of him and Estela.
“Hello Cory, are you there, she is talking to you.” Estela elbowed him in the side since the two were close in reach.
“Oh!... sorry didn’t mean to space out there, I mean you're not also staring at the heads hanging on that wall behind her. That is not something Estela yourself could not notice.”
“You mean these heads, yes, each monster was a different level, I had a face alone or with a group in the past. I keep each of these heads to remember those times since going up against such a monster, such hard work to even be close to their level of power.”
Cory just couldn’t believe that this person in front of him was this strong a matter that needed to be asked in a question by the power of one curiosity.
“How strong are you if you don’t mind me asking,” Cory asked.
“Well before accepting the job role of a guild master the last rank, I was in the last rank an adventure could reach is platinum. A rank which not many can say the same because of the higher chances of dying, the risks that could be too much of a handle for a person to take or just stopping with the rank they are good at with the money saved up from the high-paying quest.”
“Yeah, you became one of those lucky ones to even make it there, I still find it to be a shock and happy to see you make it happen. Such a day was witnessing that epic fight.”
“Took a lot of hard work and challenges for such an achievement Estela can’t say the same for those that I adventured with back in those days since it has been two years right about now. I sat in this chair as the new head guild master when the old one offered me this role back then. Anyway, let's not talk about all that, I want to know if you are going to join this guild cutie,”
Now the topic of talk has come back around to Arcana Claw wanting to know if the human Cory has the interest to take part in the guild.
At the moment there is the thinking time on the matter as this is a reality, so far that Cory Bright has come to experience this long. Being a real-life Adventure is much more serious then compared to being one in a video game or reading about a Main character becoming an adventurer when that all faction.
He does question if joining an adventure guild will be a good idea to even do when still new to this world called Donnotov. There is a lot to be unknown to him and so much to learn till the Unknown isn’t in the way anymore.
“Well, I’m not sure honestly becoming an adventure like this would make it seem impossible since I don't have the money to get the right equipment. Also, the skills to take on any quest, another thing I don't have.” Cory says being honest with Arcana.
“Hmm you do have points there from what I’m seeing, but there isn't much of a major problem as I can help with the matter of equipment. There is an Oni, I know who runs a weapons shop in this town, he can help with that and for money, well joining the guild is free, no charge at all. The only thing you have to do is fill in a paper and then you will be gifted with a ring like this.”
Arcana shows her left hand where a ring is placed on the ring finger and Cory sees it to be like platinum. There is a purple Gem right in the center of the ring, Cory gets the idea this is the guild of this world way to have adventures to use as proof of identification.
“That looks so cool to have, I have now this desire to want one just like that.” Cory stares at the ring, amazed by its sight.
The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement.
“Yeah, you could only have the same ring if you reach that rank dummy.”
“Yes, Estela is right when joining the guild, the ring will represent the rank you are in which is to be Clear. A ring that is plain looking with no Gem in it is for the newcomers.”
Cory's face changes to show that he is confused, and that Estela and Arcana do not notice this expression.
“Ha! Arcana looks like you're going to need to give a detailed explanation to this one looking lost,” Estela says, having a little laugh at it.
“Here is the ranking of something that works here, clear is for beginners being the newbies, then comes Bronze, silver, gold, diamond, and finally Platinum.”
“In a total of six ranks a person has to go through, how does it work to pass from one rank to another.”
“The working is this when you max out the level in the rank you are in along with the quest done. You will be set upon a fight with an Adventurer who is already at that rank and to win to earn moving on to the same rank it has to be either by time running out with the person still standing or and I recommend this myself to show what you learn and go all out to defeat your opponent.”
Learning about the way this guild ranking system works Cory starts to get the idea of it. Being different from how it is usually done in this world guild than that of games and manga.
Yet it just comes back to him asking himself if it is worth going into this.
“Do I want to do this, a new world I am in somehow and already face danger with some weird mix-looking creature that was close to killing me if not without the save from Vex? I'll mostly be those damn Ravan dragonflies for dinner by this point.” Cory thought.
“Cory, I can tell you are having a hard time answering and I would rather hear what is in your heart if this were something you would truly want to do.”
“Well, being an Adventure isn’t something anyone should do without really thinking about it. Like someone who joins for the excitement and journey.”
“Hey! Estela that's not fair, I have no clue walking this path was going to be so much work with the high risks. In the town I used to live in, I heard about the amazing things adventures do and I wanted to be one because of the stories being told by others.”
Arcana tries to defend with puff-up cheeks like a child looking to the side away from Cory and Estela as both laugh at the reaction.
“Well, whatever you did what you loved and is now the guild master that I know till this day,” Estela says with a bit of pride about her friend rising so far up.
“A question does come to me; I would like to ask you Estela while we are here in my offices.”
“Shoot what the question bet is going to be something, I can already guess what it is going to be about.”
“Have you had a taste of Cory yet, I would like to know.”
Arcana asked a question that brought back that question mark look on Cory's face as he didn’t get the meaning of it. Estela on the other had a wide grain on her face getting the message since she and the bat lady share the same dirty mind and are horny.
“I had a feeling at some point you ask, well after last night and the little playback at my brother's shop in the fitting room. His cock is quite tasty and not bad at its size too.” Estela says, doing a quick lick to her lips.
“Oh my! Did you and him go all the way?”
“Not yet Arcana, we have yet to cross that line. All that was done with my lovely blowjob to make Cory cum that first time. Then came the second round which ended in a little rough thigh humping that I enjoyed. Today I had a little fun with him as I said at the tailor shop rubbing my face and giving a nice lick to the tip that works to bring it into its hard state.”
“How lucky of you to get a chance at playing with his thing, but why be so mean to the next thing to have some fun with it and leave the poor guy filled and not empty? If it was me this human wouldn't be able to stand at all.”
Now Cory's face has gone into another change with him being shocked at how these two are just talking like this even at the moment he can see Arcana looking at him with playful hungry eyes.
“To see what he is going to do at getting back at me, I like to make it a test that adds more fun to what we are doing,” Estela tells her friend.
“Of course, that to be something you would do with whoever you are involved with for fun.”
“Why are you two talking about it as if it was normal and me still here to hear it all.”
“Me and Estela are very close friends sharing the same mind. We also share a bed from time to time dear.”
“You mean, you and her.”
Arcana shanks her head in a yes motion while Estela just has a normal smile on her face.
“That is why we are so close and will be for as long as possible. Anyway, since there won't be an answer today on joining, how about telling us where the weapons that run by this Oni you talk about.” Estela brings this topic back.
“Sure, the weapon shop is actually around the area. When you leave this guild, you both just have to go across from here to over there and won't miss the place with the big Oni on the front as the sign. Once inside, ask what you need and use my name, but don’t go crazy, I may be a guild master yet not made of money because of it.”
“Relax, we will ask for simple, cheap things for Cory and maybe something a little nice for me since you love me so much.”
“Hey there someone, I met outside of Holsworthy going by the name Vex who is a part of this guild. Is she still around?”
Cory takes the chance to ask about Vex when it comes back to remind him of the other reason for coming to this guild.
“Vex you say, you two had a chance at meeting each other.”
