While Lumithar was heading to the nearest guild, he met a little cub. It was a red kitten, as red as blood.

"Huh? Where is your mother? I can't sense any other cat around here... it seems you are alone... What do you think about coming with me?"

The kitten jumped into Lumithar arms, then fell right asleep.

"It seems you were really tired... well, from now on, you are Rufus."

While the kitten was asleep, Lumithar had already arrived at the guild.

"So this is the guild? It's big, and fancy... I didn't think that it would be like that, I thought it would be much uglier."

Lumithar entered the guild, heading to the guild receptionist.

"Lumithar: I want to register as an adventurer."

"Receptionist: How old are you?"

"Lumithar: I am 16 years old."

"Receptionist: Then it's alright, you can register, but you have to pay 5 gold."

"Lumithar: Alright, now what?"

"Receptionist: You need to put your hand on this machine, it will determine how much mana you have."

"Receptionist: Oh, it seems you are not ordinary. You have 400 mana, a normal human has around 50, but with a little bit of training they have around 100 to 200. It seems you have trained a lot, but you can't jump ranks just because you have more mana. You will be rank F. You can rank up by doing quests."

Now that Lumithar has become an adventurer, he chooses to rank up to B rank. He needs to do some quests to rank up, but what quests can he do?

"Hmm, a lot of quests, but just two that can be done by F-rank adventurers. I will choose this one."

The quest: You have to kill a monster ant. The ant is around the nearest village. Reward: 1 gold.

Lumithar left the guild and headed to the nearest village to kill the ant. Then the little kitten woke up.

"Oh, it seems you woke up. Hi, Rufus."

The kitten didn't do much, just rubbed his head against Lumithar's, then jumped into Lumithar backpack.

"Oh, so this is the village where the ant is? The ant should be around here."

Lumithar didn't beat around the bush; when he found the ant, he killed it in an instant. Then, he returned to the guild.

"Lumithar: I've done the quest. Here is the ant."

"Receptionist: Oh, you really did it. Good job! Here is your money. You are now rank E. If you do three more quests like this one, you can become rank D."
