Yesterday I (Eren) cleared the task to be a guild members, so from now onwards I can fully unravel the slaver traders and makers, or so I thought.
But my life had other plans.
Spiky hair dude said, "Oi, what the hell are you doing?"
"It's only 5 am in the morning, why are you making ruckus? "
I sighed
So, yesterday I was told by guild or to be more precise we were told by the guild to live in the same inn and in same room so , there can be good bonding between us.
I would be happy if it were normal persons, but these guys are way more dangerous, than those girls, which we met yesterday.
So we three, me, spiky hair dude, another man,went to inn and told that we would be in a same room.
There were not shocked as, there were many besides us who were living in same room.
We three in same room, while other two girls in room front to ours.
I ate the breakfast and went to train out side, due to the routine of mine.
After finishing the training, everyone was awake and they were having breakfast , I sat beside them , we had a little chat.
Apparently i was able to byheart their name
Spiky hair dude -James.
Decent guy -Luke
Archery girl -Lydia
Magician girl -Abby.
Abby said, "Eren your name is first time I have heard of "
Eren said, "Yes, you are right, my father came up with it, though it is a nickname of mine"
Eren in his mind, how can I tell her that my name is given to me by my father, apparently Eren was the name of my father favorite fictional character,but my stupid father keep saying everyone about this,so I don't have any choice about it,my mother gave me a very good name,so I uses eren to those who don't know me Or some people uses it as a nickname
Just like sushil,sushil knows my real name but he calls me as Eren though it is not my real name,but he uses it as pet name,there many other friends and family members how uses this as pet name.
Abby said,"so that's the case ".
" So, what's your real name, Eren"
Eren said my real name is, "That's a secret I will say it too you when I get close to you guys"
Luke said, "Looks like it will take alot of time, to just know your name " .
Eren said, "That's right.
We had many other conversation but I restricted my self from given out much information about myself.
After that we went to guild,we saw some men in the armor, there numbers was around 50 , after asking receptionist about this matter .
She said to us, "Those all are heading towards the snow mountains, nope may be former snow mountains as there are not any snow left.
The army has ordered the guild to sent there strongest guild members and adventurers towards that snow mountains , but the army higher ups will join us too.
I thought it was getting strange may be laz knew something about it, but for now, it's better to avoid this matter.
Today was the first day as we joined the guild, we get our first mission as a team, I was excited for it, we get our mission according to our rank, the rank is decided by the observer who observed us yesterday.
Apparently there are 4 ranks.
A rank, B rank, C rank and D rank.
Our rank was B.
It was good as can participate in more dangerous mission.
Our first mission we went near mission board and saw, a B rank mission, it was to capture the thieves hiding in the forest.
We thought over and decided to take that mission .
But the main thought in my mind was, "isn't this the duty of army members to catch theives and other criminal? "
Looks like this army is made up of trash, I said in my mind.
But either way I joined hand with them.
It took us 5 days to gather the information about the thieves and actually capture them.
Royal Road is the home of this novel. Visit there to read the original and support the author.
After capturing them, we went to guild to take them there.
While at the guild everyone was making a ruckus.
Abby asked Recipiontist what happened ?
The reply of the her made us scared.
According to her, the guild members adventure and army official which went to snow mountains didn't contact the army, so army send a rescue team,and they took a look at surrounding and saw what happened there?
They saw nothing at that place,there were many villages near the snow mountains but everything just vanished, out of sudden.
The army which were sent before were also missing, almost 3000 villagers went missing, it was something unbelievable, but many higher ups went missing, so it's impossible that's the news.
We heard that and reported her about our mission, she gave us our reward and said to guards of Guild to throw the theives in the prison, which was in the basement, afterward the army will take them and throw them in prison.
I saw a map of Reord was hanged on the wall.
I went near that map and saw it, I was shocked, snow mountains where in the same direction where sushil went, I hope that he is fine.
On the other hand
Michael said, "What is happening around the snow Mountain, will sushil be safe ? "
Laz said, "We can't say anything now, for most we could only pray for his safety"
Michael said, "So, in which state is the kingdom of Reord now "
Laz said, " The whole army and almost many nobles are in hopeless condition"
"This will result many dangerous outcomes"
While inside the castle
King and his minister were having a meeting
One of the minister said, "I am saying to immediately cancel the rescue operation "
"This action of our would led in a dead of everyone there"
Every human feared those who he don't know.
Everyone in the meeting agreed to this and the rescue operation was completely taken off.
The following night in Akapa city, After having dinner instead of going to room, eren said to himself that it was perfect time to investigate about slave traders.
Eren informed his roommate Luke and James so they won't be troubled at night and asked them to let the door of room closed as I would be doing something tonight.
I had watch many movies, it was my time to finally met the main villian's followers, and the best place to met them was a shady bar.
I researched around a bit in the morning with various person and I came to conclusion that, this city people don't have anything like that.
I hope that they would not report me to guild. As they would have thought that I am a shady person.
I went outside the city and was far away from the city, I heard a scream of a girl.
I thought that it was finally my time to shine, I would defeat that mens who are trying to capture that girl who was about to enter the city.
Mostly she would have come from a poor family, where her father had died, her mother is I'll and she has many siblings,she was gathering herb so she could affort the medical treatment of her mother, they don't have anything to do.
She will be a pretty girl, after saving her, I will closely get close to her and finally we both will fall in love with each other.
Or so I thought but after arriving at a stop I saw something, I regretted I saw.
That girl was definitely pretty , one of the quota was cleared but what remained where other.
She was not getting harmed by the men, she was the one was harming them.
I said to myself in mind, "Relax , eren I could still run from here and pretend like nothing happened , and I will finally able to get myself a girl."
"But my luck had other plans"
"That scary woman saw me "
Woman said, "Oi! you what are you doing here? "
"Where you planning to run away from here "
Her voice was scary, u was scared, I was saying in mind,Sushil! Laz! Michael! Help me or I would die here. Please.
The man who was beaten by her, came crawling towards me, and said to me.
"Run for your life man, you still have life, escape from this hell"
And after saying he could speak any more.
I said to myself, "I won't let your sacrifice be in vain, thank you, the man who I don't now "
I ran for my life but it was futile, that woman already caught up to me.
I was saying in mind while closing the eyes, "Mom dad thanks for giving birth to me, I left everything to you my comrades"
That woman said what are you doing I just asked to have a spar match with you, you could have rejected it, but I thought you were misunderstanding something "
"Well, my name is 'Grace masii', I'm the daughter of current guild master "
Eren said, "So that's the whole matter, I'm sorry for misunderstanding, I thought you were some sort of thugs who was trying to capture those men and work them as a slave"
Grace said, "You sure misunderstood something, there something I would like to say to you ? "
"What is it", I replied
Grace said, " You are unpopular with girls, aren't you?. Not say such mean things, or you won't get a girl "
I said to her, "You are being mean right you, you could have it in a good manner besides I could to be popular with girls if I want " I said with a grin.
Grace said, "Sure you can "
And we starting laughing.
I remembered something , in my original world I was not able talk to girl, but after coming to this world, I'm becoming more confident in myself"
Grace said that, "I am practising with the bodyguards of guild master "
"You look stronger than them, would you like to have a spar match with me "
Grace said, "Let's get going to the place where we were having par match "
I said yes to her.
"By the way my name is Eren"
At that time I took a look at her level she was strong, her level was 27 , her age was around mine, but she was definitely more stronger than me.
We went at the place where we meet , but the most important thing was that, the bodyguards ran away from that place .
I have my sympathy towards them , I wished them they gets a good customer.
The spar match was about to begin, I was a bit hesitate to attack her with my fist as she was a woman, I thought I would go easy on her.
She was also a fist fighter, the battle started, she quickly closed the distance between us, and tried to straight punched into my face, I barely saw that she was attacking me, within an instant, I moved my body in the back direction, I was able to avoid direct hit with her fist, but she was able punch a little area near my cheeks, she only slightly touched me, but blood was coming from my cheeks, I knew at that moment that I pretty much fucked up, when I decided to fight her.
But it was not time to regret the past decision within an second I decided to use my full power, I attacked her she blocked it, she attack me, I blocked attack, this went for some more rounds, but then she also decided to get serious about it.
The next attack was so fast that I was not able to avoid it, I thought that my death was bear, but she stopped the punch when it was about to hit me.
I knew at that moment, I already lost.
I admitted my defeat, and was about to leave that place.
Grace said to me, "You are a strong guy, I would like to have a rematch with you, it would be even better to have it tomorrow if possible"
At that moment, the sunlight reached us.
I said to her, "The time passed quickly and I didn't have a bit of sleep "
Grace said,"My home have a ground for battling visit it tomorrow "
"See you later"
At first I was hesitated because she was so strong I thought i would die from facing her, next time, but I also thought that she would be useful in gathering the information.
I went to inn, to sleep ,where everyone was waiting for me, they asked me what I was doing yesterday all night.
I replied that I was busy in some business, so I can't go on any mission today, sorry for inconvenience . After eating breakfast, or rather a heavy meal I went to sleep. I woke up 4 pm in the afternoon of the same day.
