Chapter 34 34 The Capital
"Seems like there are finally going to become friends," Lily said, "I don't think friend is the right word, more like rivals," Arya told her.
"You guys should come in and eat," the merchant's wife said to them, Arya and Lily followed the merchant's wife while Jack and Ray struggled to stand up.
The food was served on a round table by a maid who took a sneaky glance and smiled at Ray, even though he was surprised he pretended not to notice it.
They were served meat and some veggies which Ray had never seen, well he didn't expect it to be the same in his world.
"So boys where did you learn to fight like that?" the merchant's wife asked, "my father taught me to fight" Jack replied quickly before eating some meat.
"What about you," she said pointing toward Ray, "my father also taught me to fight" Ray lied because no one was going to believe him if he told them the truth.
"I heard you were going to join the knight academy, that's great," she said, "yes, we want to use our strength to protect the world," Arya said.
"would you stay here longer," the merchant's wife asked them, "if it's okay, we will stay till we are accepted in the knight academy," Lily told her, "that's great, it nice to have company".
The maid cleared the table and the group took turns in taking baths, Ray took a large portion of his meat back to his pet wolf and it are happily, Ray took his bath and tied some sort of clothes around his waist that looked like a towel, "I guess this is still the old days" Ray mumbled.
New clean clothes were brought to Ray by the maid who served them earlier, her face was red as she gave the clothes to Ray, "is something wrong?" Ray asked her, "no not at all," she said in a shy tone and left the room.
'I wonder what that was about", After wearing the clothes Ray proceed to look at himself in the mirror, "what!!" Ray was utterly shocked at his appearance.
"what's with the blue hair," Ray said as he touched his hair, he had short blue curly hair and blue eyes, "not even the hair, my face", when Ray transformed he thought he changed to his former self but he was totally wrong.
"Wow, so handsome," Ray said as he looked at himself in the mirror, if he was in his former world with this kind of face he would have gone into acting, 'if this is how the skill work, that means I can be anyone' Ray reasoned.
"What's taking you so long" Ray heard Lily's voice from outside the room, he quickly rushed outside and joined the rest of them. Now he knew why the maid was looking at him, 'maybe she likes me, this is so different from my normal world' Ray said to himself.
Soon they were ready to head out to explore the capital. The capital was a busy place, it was a bustling city that looks like it came out of the medieval period. Houses made of bricks were built side by side.
The capital is divided into three districts, districts 1, 2, and 3. They were currently in district 1 and this place was full of different kinds of shops. The weapon, armor, potion, clothes, food, etc, were all around the place. Ray was really amused by all of this and the rest of them could tell.
'Maybe it's his first time in the capital' Arya thought as she saw Ray looking around and smiling.
"Where should we go first," Lily asked the group, "shouldn't we register as adventurers first" Ray suggested, "that's not a bad idea, we could do some task and get promoted before entering the knight academy," Aya said, "yes and also earn money," Jack said.
"Get promoted, how," Ray asked, "why do you act like you don't know a thing" Jack frowned at him, "maybe I don't, otherwise why would I be asking" Ray replied.
"Adventurers are divided into seven ranks. S rank is the strongest and the F rank is a newbie. The power of a D rank adventurer is stronger than us right now" Arya explained to him.
"And there are guilds, the adventurer guild is a very influential faction, in terms of influence the top three guilds are far more known across the world than some of the governors and great leaders" Arya added.
"Wow, that's nice, so can we join any guild?" Ray asked, "you have to apply and be approved by the leader or top members of the guild," Jack told him as they walk towards the adventurer hall.
"How about creating a guild?" Ray asked, "to create a guild, you need to be at least a C rank adventurer and have five members as well as a certain amount of money," Arya told him.
"You seem to know a lot about these things," Ray said to her, "thanks, I read a lot", "maybe you are just dumb" Jack sneered at him but Ray ignored him.
They arrived in front of a wooden door of a large building, this was the capital of bullmar Adventurer Guild branch. As a continental faction, the adventurer guild had many branches in major cities and capitals around the world.
From the door, Ray could hear noises inside the building. Jack was the first person who stepped inside followed by the girls.
Stepping forward, Ray entered the building, the first thing he saw was a wide hall filled with different people laughing and chatting, some in the corner seem to be waiting for their members.
Some people looked at him mostly girls, some didn't even spare him a glance as they know different people always enter the guild every day.
Ray followed his group to the receptionist who was behind a counter.
The receptionist was a beautiful middle-aged woman. she had pale white skin, and brown eyes, and her brown hair fell to her back.
"Hello, what can I do for you?" the receptionist asked them in a polite tone, "we want to register as adventurers" Jack replied to her question.
