It was hexo, and him entering at that particular moment, managed to disrupt the tension which had filled the air.
'Should I come back later…? I'm not used to all this attention.'
However, after a few seconds of thinking, he decided to stay. There was no reason to leave, or rather, now he was even more curious as to why everyone was acting in that way.
"Guild-master, what's wrong with anyone?" He asked as he walked through the crowd and suddenly stopped in front of the master.
For a moment, the guild-master was surprised. He had never met this guy, and he knew he wasn't a regular at the guild so how did he recognize it was him? He wasn't even in his trunks which the rumors would usually use to describe him.
"Huh? Did I make a mistake…? But wait… You're the strongest one here, aren't you? So I thought for sure that you were-"
"Ha- Ha ha ha!! I like you, boy! No, you're right. I'm the guild master!"
"Oh, great. You mind explaining to me what's going on here? I get a little nervous with all this attention." Said Hexo calmly
'Nervous? You?' The adventurers wondered
"That's right… Before I explain though, what rank are you boy?" The guild-master asked
"Rank? Oh, A-Rank." Said Hexo as he casually pulled out a red A-Rank card.
It was another High-A ranker.
"Perfect, you're in." Said the guild-master with a wide smile as he patted hexo on the shoulder
"I'm what? In for what?" Hexo asked
"A dragon!?! You really think you can handle one with just 4 A-Rankers and a former S-Rank?" Hexo asked somewhat seriously
The instant the word dragon had popped up in the guild-master's explanation, there was an obvious change in Hexo's expression. He seemed very pissed off. He also seemed to be squeezing his hand as he curled it up into a fist.
"This is just an exploration quest. Hence there's a chance that it's true. The village will call for S-Rank back up." Replied the guild master
For a moment, there was no reply from Hexo. All he did was stare at the ground.
"However, if you think it's too dangerous than—"
The guild master was interrupted by Hexo, who suddenly said
"No, I'm in… Definitely." Said Hexo as he grit his teeth
While the guild-master was happy, he was also concerned for the young man. He could feel a lot of rage and blood l.u.s.t being released.
'He harbors a strong hate towards dragons… Maybe something he experienced during childhood?'
"Great, looks like we have everyone, we set out as soon as possible." Said the leader
"That's good and all, but… Why is everyone looking at us, like that?" Hexo asked as he gave a quick look around.
Everyone had a confused and dumbfounded look on their face. They were staring at both the guild-master and Hexo. The A-Rankers however, paid no attention to it.
"Are you two related?" One of the adventurers asked
'He actually asked it! I was wondering the same thing.' They all simultaneously thought
"No." Both the guild Master and Hexo simultaneously replied
"What makes you think that?" Hexo asked shortly after
They looked at the clothes they were wearing. The guild master was known to wear light clothes despite being in the middle of a freezing cold blizzard and Hexo here had his robe opened allowing his abs to stick out. He was also wearing shorts and sandals.
"N-Nothing." Said the Adventurer as he stepped back.
"…?"
"Well then, are we all ready to leave?" Asked the guild master
They didn't have any time to waste. The bright sword quickly replied 'yes' the magician took in another puff of smoke from her pipe before nodding, hexo slammed his fist into his hand as he replied "Let's get going. And the girl in the cloak covering her appearance slowly nodded.
"Good, then let's go-"
Just as the guild-master said that. He suddenly turned his head to the Guild's entrance where another young man could be seen walking inside.
"Hey… Isn't that…?"
"Yeah… It's the blind-guy from a while ago…"
"Wait… If he's here, then what happened to the snakes?"
Some Adventurers began muttering amongst themselves when the tall and muscular adventurer who was waiting at the entrance and convinced that there was more to him that met the eye muttered
"Well, I'll be damned…"
Not a single wound nor injury could be seen on the man. His clothes were in the same state as before and his blindfold looked as if it hadn't been touched at all. What's more, his expression hadn't changed at all.
The first thing the guild-master noticed about the young man, was that he wasn't normal. No presence, no magic power, even his cloak looked as if it were hiding a weak and powerless body beneath it. But for some reason, he felt a strange sense of danger.
Hexo who saw this was also surprised, or rather, he wasn't sure how to react.
'What a lucky day… It's that guy again…' He thought to himself nervously
The guild-master suddenly got up and watched as the young man made his way towards him. The other A-Ranker's watched quietly, they were one of the few who didn't let out a single laugh at the young man. Not because they had deemed him dangerous but because it wasn't worth their time, laughing like a bunch of idiots at a young man's problems.
However, now. Seeing the young man returned, had caused them to grow slightly wary of him. A lot more than they initially expected. The air around him felt different, colder. Yet they weren't sure why they felt that way, all of them except for Hexo.
The Guild master's expression turned rather serious and he became more and more quiet as the young man reached the group.
"Hey… Who is this young man?��� The guild master asked as he kept his face fixed on the young man.
The adventurers who heard this, didn't even waste the opportunity to reply.
"Just, some Random sacrifice for the battlefield."
"Ha ha! That was harsh, he's just a blind man in need of help is all."
"At least he managed to defeat a goblin."
The group of adventurers started to laugh again, and the guild master slowly began to approach the young man with a rather terrifying expression as he did so.
"Goblin…? Ah… I see… So the report was correct… Truly an Illusion…" The Guild Master muttered as he stood right in front of the young man
He towered over the young man in terms of height, and definitely looked more powerful, but… He had a feeling it was only looks.
The tension began to rise in the room as they all paid attention to the guild master's reaction. Then out of nowhere he began to laugh. And a loud one at that.
"Oh man!! I can't stop laughing!! H-Ha- Wai-Ha!"
Everyone listened in quietly, and shortly after, he stopped.
"Oh god… Ah… It must be from the age… Sorry… It's just… I didn't realize how stupid this generation could be… What's your name boy?" The guild master asked as he stretched out his hand at John for a Hand Shake
The young man looked at the hand before grabbing onto his adventurer's card within his cloak and handing it to the Guild master. In that instant, the Guild Master got to see Daggers on the young man's waist. Yet he carried a staff on his hand. There was more to him than met the eye.
The Guild Master looked at the adventurer's card and was glad to see that it was A-Rank. His instincts and senses weren't mistaken. He then had a look at the name and a joyful smile could be seen displayed on his face once he was finished inspecting it.
"Right, that's all I needed to see, thank you." Said the guild master.
The young man nodded, and placed his card back inside of his cloak. In that Instant, he felt an immense amount of blood l.u.s.t along with a fist heading straight towards his face.
He watched it make it's way, and without even bothering to dodge, he slightly lowered his head. In that moment, he was sent flying back straight through the crowd to the guild's entrance with haste.
As he crashed into the door, surprise filled the Guild Master's face.
"Eh? Why didn't you dodge?" The guild master asked
He then looked over at his hand with the gauntlet covering it, and noticed a slight crack on it. On top of that, there was a surge of pain occurring in the hand which he used to punch the young man.
"What the hell!?"
"H-Hey, is he fine?!"
"D-Did he kill him?"
The adventurers were even more surprised than the Guild-Master. Yet out of nowhere, without a wound visible on his face, the young man suddenly got up from the floor, before making his way back towards the guild master.
"H-Hey, don't you think it'd be better to stay down?"
"You sure you okay?"
"Maybe he hit his head too hard?!"
The adventurers were thinking of stopping him, when suddenly the young man pulled back his hand and curled it into a fist. The guild master was a battle maniac, so seeing this caused him to feel a rush of adrenaline along with excitement.
"Now it's your turn. Come at me, I won't run or dodge." Said the guild master with a joyful look
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
It was hexo, and him entering at that particular moment, managed to disrupt the tension which had filled the air.
