Chapter 360 Adventurer's Guild

Chapter 360 Adventurer's GuildLyrian was slightly taken aback, as the leather armor-wearing man leaped away from him.

Without hesitation, he sprinted out of the tavern, shoulder slamming his way through the door and undoing a few hinges in his exit.

"Tsk! What the hell was that for!? Stupid bastard." The bartender exclaimed

, rolling his eyes in annoyance.

'What in the hell was that? Why did it feel so powerful? So dangerous?' Lyrian looked at the open door, as did everyone else--with slight surprise and awe.

He then turned his attention back to the fat man in front of him.

At that moment, a few drops suddenly fell from the man's pants--creating a small puddle on the ground.

As the fat man followed Lyrian's eyes, the boy looked down at the puddle, and then back at the fat man with a disgusted expression.

"Are you serious!?" The bartender screamed, seeing the puddle on the ground. "You better clean that!"

As he said this, Lyrian sheathed his blade and gave the fat man a blistering slap.

The man was instantly thrown across the tavern--a steaming hot, red indent left on his cheek.

"No! Now whos going to clean this mess, god damn it!" The bartender cried, running over to where the puddle was.

"Damn it all!" He yelled toward the sky.

At that moment, Blub, who was laughing at the bartender's situation, exclaimed, "Hahaha! Why do you care anyway old man? You usually don't give two shits when the place gets ransacked."

At that moment, the bar owner slowly turned to face Blub. "I usually don't care because I make the fools who made the place a mess clean up, but right now they don't exist, as good ol' MVP over there decided to knock them all cleanout. They won't be awake for days."

As he said this eyes slightly squinted--inspecing Blub a little closer.

Blud continued to drink his booze, as those around his table broke out into a laugh, knowing exactly what the bartender was going to say next.

"But now that I think about it... you should do the job just fine."

"Wait... what?" Blub confusedly retorted.

Lyrian returned to his table, but his appetite was still ruined from what just happened.

'I want to find out what that was... and use it for myself.' Lyrian mused, thinking about the thing with dark energy that the goon sneak attacked him with.

'Now that my appetite is ruined...' He looked out the window again, 'I guess I'll check out how I can join the Adventurer's Guild. I need to do quests while I am here, and I can also investigate at the same time, so it's a win-win situation.'

Before he left, he saw the waiter coming to his table and placed a single gold coin down. With that, he promptly exited the tavern.

The waiter arrived at his table and his eyes widened slightly when he saw the gold coin.

He picked it up, examining it in the air with an eyebrow raised. "What the heck? A gold coin for a few plates of food?"

A few astonished noises reverberated around him, as the bar owner smiled, "Oh... that will help a little bit with repairs."

The waiter, his eyes shadowed, swiftly put the coin in his pocket, "Unfortunately for you... I believe that was a tip, which I will humbly accept."

The bar owner's brow twitched as he heard this, "Huh? Do you wanna die, bastard?"

Lyrian walked along the main street for a bit longer, moving toward the large adventurers guild building.

As he walked, he made sure to put his hood up.

'No point in showing myself in public. I don't want to have people flocking around me like some sort of celebrity.'

With that, he arrived at the entrance of the guild building and stepped through the front door. As soon as he did, the hood came off.

'Everyone will eventually know that the hooded figure around here is me anyways...' He mused one last time, walking into the giant establishment.

Similar to the one in Illstria, this place was huge. In fact, it might have even been considerably larger than the one he knew.

However, there didn't seem to be a bar in this place. But, that made sense, as the Rocks Adventurer's Tavern most likely was the alternative to that.

Seeing a bunch of filled counter booths, Lyrian joined the one with the shortest line.

As he did, a bunch of eyes quickly began to follow his every movement.

He soon arrived at the front of the line, where a young woman greeted him across the counter.

"Welcome to--" She paused, her face contorting to slight shock as she saw Lyrian's face.

"T-to the Adventurer's Guild... How may I assist you?" She said in a much slower tone, trying to figure out of she was seeing correctly.

"I want to join the Adventurer's Guild," Lyrian stated blankly, as people from other lines also noticed him.

"Woah... Isn't that Lyrian Theageld? From Anaviotis?" A young teenager whispered to his mother. Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ N0ᴠᴇFɪre.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

"Yeah... I wonder what he's doing here." She murmured back.

"Look! It's the MVP!"

"A student from Anaviotis..."

"J-join the Adventurer's Guild... of course! Uh..." The young woman behind the counter quickly began writing some things down on the paperwork at her table.

After hurriedly writing something down, she handed over the piece of paper to Lyrian.

She seemed flustered as Lyrian took the paper from her, "The testing room is the farthest one to your left... near the stairs leading to the second floor... please let me know if you have um, any additional questions!"

Lyrian promptly walked towards the door she was talking about.

Just as he arrived there and reached for the door handle, a familiar face made his way down the stairs.

"Lord Lyrian!" Hyst exclaimed, walking down with a bright smile, "Planning to take the Entrance Test huh? Mind if I join you? I want to see your abilities first hand, you see."
