Strongest Grimoire Of The Gods

The guys that were watching from the side lost their shit.

"WHAT!?"

"What the fuck was that!?"

"Did I just see that correctly?"

"Hahaha... nice one, Yurin."

...

Yurin froze: "Well... you outdid what I expected." He chuckled, "You won."

Tyr lowered his spear, a smile forming on his face as Yurin turned.

Tyr bowed slightly, "Thank you, Yurin."

'Scan.'

'As I thought... he let me win...'

"No need to thank me. I do this for fun. Plus, I wanted to punish you more, but you're weirder than I thought." Yurin politely replied.

"What?" Tyr got slightly offended, "What are you trynna say?"

"Well, in fighting terms at least. You don't have an Aura Core, yet that quick moving ability you just did sure made it seem like you had an Ancestral Ability."

"I see..." Tyr didn't know what to say. It wasn't like he could reveal he had GG, could he?

"Anyways, I'm impressed. I didn't expect that from you. Maybe I should have though..." Yurin looked to the side, "Considering you were chosen by captain himself..."

"C-captain? What do you mean?" Tyr questioned, slightly wary: 'Ain't no way this guy is also a part of Ultimatum...'

"Oh right!" Yurin's eyes darted back to face Tyr, "I didn't ever fully introduce myself. I'm Yurin Tatan, a member of Skyfall Hunter Guild's Hunter Squad: Ultimatum."

"How the hell is everyone I meet a part of that group!?" Tyr shouted in confusion.

"Hahaha! Fate perhaps?" Yurin quipped, walking back inside.

Tyr followed him, but before he entered the building, he got a few nice words from the guys on the sides.

"Yo! Good job newbie!"

"I look forward to having you as a fellow Hunter!"

Tyr nodded politely before entering. 'Just how the hell do even those guys know me?'

He arrived at the counter, where Yurin charged him 3 gold and 50 silver coins for the spear.

"That's way too expensive!" Tyr exclaimed, shocked at the price of the weapon. "I told you to show me the cheap ones, you greedy bastard!"

"No no! This is cheap! It's a discount, actually. I would have charged you 4 gold coins had it not been for you being captain's friend."

"Sure..." Tyr said, not convinced whatsoever. 'Now I'm starting to think this guy just made me spar him with this spear as a ploy to sell me it... tsk.'

In the end, he paid the money and left.

He felt a bit robbed but was happy to have a decent weapon. It didn't have any special abilities or anything like that, but it was sturdy. For now, Tyr wasn't going to be able to afford anything too much more powerful.

As he stood outside of the smithery, Tyr heard his stomach grumble loud enough to make some passers-by turn their heads in astonishment.

'Damn... I'm hungry.'

After this, Tyr stopped by an outdoor food cart. He spent the rest of his 15 silver coins on some food--an entire grilled chicken along with vegetable soup and freshly baked bread.

He spent the rest of the day exploring Drance since there wasn't anything much more he could do. He was checking out stores, establishments, and the various other aspects of the city.

Even on Earth, the only reason why Tyr was a loner was because he didn't want to make friends.

What was the point of friends? Why would he want to invite people into a shitshow that even he didn't want to be in? It made no sense.

However, he was never really an introvert. He didn't believe in such labels anyway.

When he wanted, he could be the most outgoing person--but he simply never did. This trait was something he carried from his grandfather, who was a very light-hearted person whose personality revolved around comedy.

After a day of exploring, Tyr arrived back at the Hunter's Guild again.

This time, he had to pay a fee of 10 silver coins for the night.

'I need a way to get more money, quick.' He looked around the lobby/bar area of the guild as he walked toward the stairs leading to his room.

'These guys are strong beast hunters, but at the same time, they give off the aura of 9-5 workers. Sure, they are probably making more money than the average person... but not by a lot. Unless I become a mega star Hunter, I probably won't make a fortune.'

He arrived at his room.

'I want to make a fortune though.' One of Tyr's dreams was to live in luxury. Having all of his wants met was extremely appealing to him. After all, he had lived a life of poverty up until now.

'I don't want to get spoiled either... that's why I'll work for whatever wealth I build.'

Tyr wasn't really into the 'don't be materialistic' mantra. He wasn't some sort of monk who was going to give up all worldly desires. This was because he wasn't raised religiously either.

When it came to the various Gods, Tyr couldn't help but not be drawn towards them as he stood now. He wanted luxury, fame, glory, and power.

As he prepared himself for bed, a lot of thoughts crossed his mind.

The moonlight piercing through his bedside window made him peer into the starry sky.

Unlike the large metropolitan cities of Earth, this place had no light pollution. The stars vibrated brightly all throughout the sky--presenting a beautiful vision of dancing colors and mesmerizing patterns.

'I won't allow this life to turn into what it was. I can't.' These were the last thoughts Tyr had before falling into a deep slumber.

***

The next day arrived.

Right now, Tyr was sitting in the Hunter Exam waiting room, fully prepared, with his left ankle crossed above his right knee.

He had already done his morning workout and eaten breakfast. His morning shower was completed, clothes were checked off, and his spear sheathed and ready.

The waiting room he was in was behind a door next to the help desk at the back of the main guild room.

As he stepped inside there was a fairly long corridor with filled seats lined across the walls.

At the very back of the room was a small window booth--behind which sat a young woman with black hair and coffee eyes.

"The previous 20 have finished their exams! The next 20 should now enter the exam room! Ionel Grendel, Maximus Cortez, Urval Jens, Lyrai Opal, Ja..." The young woman's voice sounded from the speaker's place in the corners of the room.

Tyr had already been waiting for quite a while now. Just as he had imagined, his name was called this time around.

"--And finally, Tyr!"

'That's right, I didn't give them my full name did I... eh, it's not like it matters.' He stood up, taking a deep breath to prepare before taking a step forward...
