My Slayer System: Rise to Supremacy

After a few minutes of walking, Jake was now in front of the Guildhall. With a deep breath, Jake walked into the building. The loud noises coming from the different adventurers talking hit Jake like a wave. Jake could see that the damages he caused from the fight between him and the Iron Fist Guild was repaired.

Walking away from the door, Jake went towards the counter where he registered as an adventurer the last time he came. "Hi, how may I help you?" The man behind the counter asked.

"I am here to sell some beast crystals." Jake said.

"Alright, what tier are they and how many do you have?" The man asked.

"They are all basic tier beasts crystals and I have four of them." Jake replied.

The man didn't say anything, he just waited for Jake to bring the crystals out. Fumbling In his pocket, Jake brought out the crystals. The placed the crystals down on the counter and they made a clanging sound as he placed them down.

The man didn't react, he just brought out a small, intricately crafted device with a glowing blue crystal at its center. The crystal analyzer emitted a soft hum as it scanned the beast crystals, revealing its purity and type through a series of intricate symbols etched into the device's surface.

"Okay, this is truly a beast crystal." The man said looking up from the device. "It says, it was got from Hop bunnies."

Jake was impressed. It turns out this device was more than what meets the eyes. 'I bet this device was created by one of the big three families. I just wonder which one.' Jake thought.

"I'm willing to buy it from you for 40 credits." The man said.

"What!" Jake shouted but he was mindful not to draw attention towards himself. "Are you trying to rip me off here?"

"It is not a rip off, it's a fair price. One basic tier crystal is worth 10 credits while an intermediate crystal is worth 100 credits, an advanced crystal is worth a thousand credits. That's the market value for all these things." The man said.

Jake just sighed and gave the man his wrist to make the transfer seeing as he had no choice. After the transfer was done, Jake just went to one of the tables to sit down. 'I can't believe that the crystals were sold for 40 credits. So cheap.' Jake thought.

"Well what do you want to do now?" Zee asked.

"The only thing I can do. I'm gonna go hunt myself some intermediate beasts." Jake replied.

"How? Because as far as I remember, the academy will only allow you to hunt intermediate beasts during the monthly beast hunt."

Jake just looked at the quest board and then he stood up to get a closer look. And he saw quests asking travellers to hunt intermediate beasts. But for these quests, there needed to be three people in a team to go out and hunt the beasts. "I found the solution to my earlier problem of hunting intermediate beasts and now this. Where on earth am I gonna find two more people to join me for a hunt?"

"I could help." A voice said.

Turning around, Jake could see a huge man standing beside a female with purple robe on her. "You need two people to join you for the hunt right? Then here we are." Helen said with a smile on her face.

Jake looked her up and down with a hint of doubt on his face. "Why?"

"Because we also wanted to go hunt some beasts and noticed that everyone was already In a team, when we approached the board, I heard you mumbling to yourself so we decided to join up with you. You needed two members for you to go hunt beasts and we needed one more member so its a win win for the both of us." Helen smiled.

A little while ago when Helen and Berg entered the Guildhall, Helen scanned the room to see if there will be any signs of Jake but there was none. Helen decided to go sit on a table with Berg sitting across her. Berg also scanned the room but he couldn't see Jake anywhere.

"I don't think he's here miss Helen. And besides I don't think he will show up after the ruckus he created the other day." Berg said.

"He will show up. My gut feeling tells me so." Helen replied still looking around that was when her eyes landed on someone dressed in a black robe and was walking away from the counter then he went to sit down for a few seconds then he stood up and headed to the Quest board.

"What's wrong miss?" Berg asked noticing that Helen was looking at the strange person putting on a black robe.

"It's nothing, that person felt familiar." Helen replied. This caused Berg to laugh.

"Oh please, do you want to tell me that the robed figure is your mysterious crush." Berg chuckled.

"He could be." Helen replied.

"What! What do you mean?"

"I mean, it will make sense for him to hide himself especially with the ruckus he created here last time. He would want to play safe by hiding himself. That will explain me not seeing him." Helen replied.

"Are you for real now? He could just be a normal person that felt like wearing a robe or someone of importance like yourself that will want to hide their identity." Berg replied.

"No, my gut feeling tells me that's my guy. Besides there's no harm in checking right?"

Berg didn't argue further, he decided to agree with whatever Helen said and planned and that was when they approached Jake who was contemplating where he was gonna get a two more people from and that was when Helen decided to volunteer to join Jake for a beast hunt.
