BXBX NOVEL Chapter 399 Aunt Steria
Chapter 399 Aunt Steria
Following Kalc, we soon found ourselves on the main street. Without becoming to lead us further to places where he has no comrades, he bowed deeply to Fran for the last time and left. Looks like he was afraid of Fran.
As soon as we went out to the main street, after 10 minutes of walking the sign of the Adventurers Guild appeared.
-Finally we arrived . But the building, however, is not that big .(Master)
“ its smaller than in Balbor. (Fran)
Judging by the size of the capital, I was expecting to see the corresponding size of the guild building. But, , it was almost half as much. well, of course it was larger than in Alessa and Ulmut, but nevertheless I imagined it larger.
-Well, in any case, let\'s go.(Master)
- Nn… (Fran)
As much as the guild lose in size to Balbor, there was no doubt that this was the capital guild. The atmosphere inside was pretty heavy.
Although the building was made up of huge, rough-hewn boulders, the interior was decorated with huge embroidered tapestries with the guild emblem, scarlet carpets, and the wood of the reception desk had taken on a beautiful hue over the years. Everything around looked elegant and graceful. A good description of the atmosphere of the guild would be that the weight of the story was felt in this place.
Rather than the luxury resort style of the Balbor Guild, the guild was more like an old high society hotel.
The racks seem to have been split depending on the purpose. There was no guide here, as in the Balbor guild, but all the necessary information was clearly written on the board.
First of all, we decided to line up to the stand for ranks C and D. Behind it was a huge man like a bear.
Glancing at Fran, he said:
- Girl, what is your rank?( adventurer)
- Hmm? C. (Fran )
- I see.(adventurer)
Fran took out her adventurer card, which seemed to convince the man. He did not assume that it was a lie or a fake. This is rather not because he was able to feel the real power of Fran, but because he did not want to burden himself with unnecessary trouble, believing that the staff would certainly be able to distinguish a fake from the original. Besides, I think he could at least feel that Fran is not weak.
However, there were also those whom Fran could not convince. Nearby there was a line for ranks F and G. It seemed that for them, dreaming of this cherished middle rank, it was unpleasant to see such a little girl in line . There were especially many talks about this among the F rank adventurers, who recently left the rookie category. It was clear from them that they were ready to enter into a fight with Fran.
And then came the understanding voice of a strong-looking aunt, standing next to the counter for ranks A and B. Even as a compliment, I could not say that in her youth she was a beauty.
It may sound rude , but I was surprised that such a large guild could not find a pretty girl to work at the counter.
However, after looking closely, it became clear why she was entrusted with such a position. She was very strong. As strong as all those outraged F-rank adventurers, and could have dealt with them all easily. She may have been an adventurer herself before. Considering the peculiarities of high-ranking adventurers, I had no doubt that strong people were chosen first of all for the role of service personnel.
- Girl, you, by any chance, are not that Princess of Black Lightning, which one there are so many rumors? (aunt )
- Nn.
Apparently, hearing the name "Princess of Black Lightning", the crowd of adventurers began to rustle. Well, well, almost none of them believed it.
-I see , then, you can came here.
- What, really I can? (Fran )
- Yes, you are only 12 years old, and already in rank C. In addition, you also became the star of the Martial Arts Tournament, defeating the former adventurer of rank A, and even the current rank A. You are strong , no doubt. So, I have nothing against you getting in this line here .
- Nn.
Apparently, this woman was treated in a special way in the capital\'s guild. When Fran confirmed her pseudonym, and this aunt willingly believed her, the adventurers around did not mind. Maybe they still had doubts, but the atmosphere was such that no one wanted to contradict this woman.
- Welcome. Steria
- Nn. My name is Fran, a C rank adventurer.(Fran
- My name is Steria. (Steria)
- Aunt Steria. (Fran)
Hey hey, be careful with what you call people!
-What is, Mentor? (Fran)
- no , its nothing. Just thought it would be nice to bake some cookies just in case. (Master)
-?
We spoke to Steria about the case. To begin with, Fran passed on a letter of introduction from Gamudo, the head of the Balbor Guild.
- I want to take part in the auction. Here\'s a letter of recommendation. (Fran)
- Hm? Can I tale a look ? (Steria)
- Nn.(Fran)
Steria opened the letter and confirmed its contents. It looks like he wrote that he would like Fran to provide maximum assistance in everything.
And it also seems that the seal next to the signature was there for a reason. I felt the magic emanating from her before, but now Steria herself brought some kind of crystal from this seal.
- Yes, this is the original. A letter from Mr. Gamudo himself, incredible. (Steria)
- Do you know Gamudo? (Fran)
- Why do you call Mister Gamudo so familiarly … Listen, he\'s the same Gamudo, that known as dragon slayer!( Steria)
- I know.(Fran)
- You don\'t know anything! In my time, it was the legendary team: Dragon Slayer, Lord Gamudo; Dragon Hunter, Mr. Fermus; Dragon Crusher, Mr. Diaz; Captive of dragons, Mr. Eyvas. (Steria)
Steria spoke so quickly that we barely heard anything. But it seems that when she was a rookie there was a team of A-rank adventurers with Gamudo in the lineup, and she respected them a lot.
They rode around the world like a party of dragon slayers . We have already seen the power of Gamudo and Fermus, but now it turned out that my assessment of Diaz was also true. Considering that they had another comrade who was not equal to them, I could easily believe that such a party could hunt dragons. Although, of course, everything depends on the type and level of threat of a particular dragon.
However, this party split up 5 years after its formation. Diaz first took over as the head of the guild in Ulmut, and was forced to leave the party. Then there were disagreements between the magician Avas and the rest of the team, and it seems that these feuds caused the collapse.
I have a feeling that I already heard the name of Avas when after the Martial Arts Tournament Fran tried to lure the guild of magicians. Yes, "Guild of Avas Mages". Although they say that this guild is something like an underground organization, but from the name it is clear that its creator is this very Avas.
Perhaps the reason Fermus is so surprisingly familiar with this organization is that it was founded by his former comrade. And Diaz, therefore, harbors such hostility towards the Mages Guild because Avas was the cause of discord in the team.
It looks like Avas is a mage specializing in ice magic and poison magic. Not that I wanted to meet him, but if we happen to meet him, then we must bear in mind these two schools of magic.
- Oh. … Something we are a little carried away by this topic.(Steria)
She said that we were carried away, although only she HAS spoke. Fran didn’t say anything besides “uh-huh”. Although, it seemed she was glad that she spoke out. Steria gathered her courage again.
- In general, I do not have the authority to do as I want , so we need to call the boss. Can you sit down here on a chair and wait?)Steria)
- Nn. Fine.
When Steria left her place, the adventurers did not take their eyes off from Fran. But they seemed to remotely sense her power, so they didn\'t say anything. Well, until they start bothering us, let them watch as long as they want.
-So, would you mind a tea break? (Master)
-Nn (Fran)
Fran took tea and a snack from the Spatial Vault.
Hmm? I said "tea break" right? (Master)
-Nn (Fran)
No, of course she got the tea. Black tea, to be exact. But why is the table bursting with food? Although no, everything is clear. It seems that this is how she envisions a snack for tea.
I have nothing against pancakes, cookies and pies. It looks like these fritters, along with curry, were Fran\'s favorite treats. Since we are talking about an appetizer for black tea, then it will not do without mitarashi dango and daifuku. And, of course, a steak, as a tribute to the traditions of the half-beast people.
Also, how about curry, fried rice and boiled rice? Sounds like a full meal, huh? Something too much rice dishes.
- Yummy. (Fran)
-Fran, will you eat some salad? (Master)
- Nn. i will . Fran
We should teach her to eat in a balanced way.
