[Rean Point of View]
Since we have finished our study session with Grandpa Claude for today, we decided to wait for Brother Ash in the center of the city, with lunch made by Grandpa Claude.
As we walk toward the city center, most of the friendly neighborhood greets us, telling us to be careful, I have to agree since the public horse carriage do tend to go beyond the speed limit, that's why as usual, I reminded them, especially Zerolith and Singa to be careful and don't run on the street, and nothing happened which is good.
As we watch the watcher that display Brother Ash action inside the dungeon, the innkeeper daughter, Alice come and greet us. We have a little chat before she asked us to come visit her parents for dinner, I should tell Brother Ash about it, and then
"Isn't that the King Behemoth!" [Ram]
The adventure guild master said that out loud, as all of us including the adventure look at the watcher he point at, and no... it's brother Ash, and he is all alone. Please come back Brother Ash, don't do any unnecessary thing... but my prayer were left unanswered, as I can see Brother Ash setting up few traps, and there he goes, challenging the King Behemoth
The guild master then asked the nearby adventure to go and help Brother Ash, even he himself are ready to go but they were all stopped by some important looking person, saying that if they go now rashly, the number of injured and casualties will unnecessary increase, so the best course of action is to request the soldier and knight support. That's nonsense! Brother Ash in trouble, but our plead fall on deaf ear, the important looking person didn't even bother hearing us out
"Do your best Brother Ash!" [Zerolith]
"Hmm!!" [Karon]
"Please god, help brother Ash" [Elise]
I did the same, praying hard for his safety. For a moment, thing look good as Brother Ash manage to trap the King Behemoth inside a pit before things took a sharp turn and now Brother Ash been hit by the king behemoth, please just run!
"Huh?" [Mara]
All of us have the same reaction as Mara, why are there four behemoths showing up all of a sudden? And they are helping Brother Ash! And after all of the fighting scene between all those behemoths, Brother Ash manage to strike the king behemoth magic core!

"That kid really is good!"
"If only he is an adventure then I can ask him to join our party"
"Slaying an A rank monster all by his own, and now an S rank monster!"
"Well, that King Behemoth was injured but damned!"
The adventure and some of the merchants is praising him, even we can't help but to feel proud as well. After a while
" Look, there he is" [Adventure]
Brother Ash, with the help of an adventure party made it out from the dungeon, and after talking to the guild master, Brother Ash will be treated first, but suddenly
"Move it" [Rude Captain]
Isn't that the knight from last time? The one that hit and push Charlotte before, and Brother Ash, what are you doing, please don't fight with him, you are still injured! Or so I thought, but Brother Ash as usual became angry when the knight about to push Charlotte away... I should support Brother Ash
"That's enough both of you!" [Princess Diana]
It's Princess Diana! Thank god! But, the knight seems reluctant to settle this nicely, even kicking Brother Ash, thing once again heated up!
"Both of you, STOP!" [Ram]
Guild master? And this time both of them really stop, thank goodness, or else who knew what will happen, Elise for once are on a verge of tear just by seeing Brother Ash getting kick by the knight when he is in terrible state
And now, Brother Ash can finally get some treatment, ohh... looks like the other are quite reluctant. No good! Have to persuade them
"Well, Sister Alice did miss us all, wouldn't it be nice to eat with her" [Rean]
"Rean's right, or could it be none of you miss her?" [Elise]
""Both of us miss you Sister Alice"" [Kara, Mara]
We manage to persuade them! As we are about to eat, the adventure party that help Brother Ash, come and eat with us as well, and soon after, most of the adventure joins as well.
"You guys must be the orphan that Ash take care of, my name is Syah, the leader of this adventure party, this is my little sister, Mimi and those two are our childhood friend, Borg and Lin, they are married now with four children" [Syah]
"Nice to meet you!" [Farhah]
"How about you introduce yourself" [Alice]

"Well we are..." [Rean]
As we introduce ourselves, the surrounding adventure decide to join the conversation, it became lively, and
"Sword! Mr, can you please teach me swordplay?" [Savel]
"Well, I can show you some basic style right now" [Adventure]
"And you little elf, you seem interested in my bow, you wouldn't happen to use one?" [Elf adventure]
"I am, can you please teach me? Brother Ash is genius magician but he can't teach us about weapon" [Farhah]
"Now that you mention it, that is one strange weapon he wielded, just what is it?" [Borg]
"Brother Ash said it's a weapon call as scythe, he found it inside a random malignant chest" [Singa]
"I see, well everyone, how about you teach them some basic tips regarding their weapon?" [Alice]
"Alright, you better take a note kids, for I will one day become a saga!" [Adventure]
"Pfft, defeat a behemoth like that guy first then you can talk" [Adventure]
"Can you even defeat a goblin?" [Adventure]
"Shut it!" [Adventure]
They are nice people, and they look strong, I can't compare them to Brother Ash but what if I become and adventure, can I become as strong as Brother Ash?
"Come boy, I will teach you how to use katana" [Samurai Jacks]
"Yes!" [Rean]
As those adventure keep on teaching us, Brother Ash, Princess Diana and the two Guild Masters have concluded their meeting and they are walking toward us, this seems like a perfect opportunity
"Brother Ash..." [Rean]
"What is it Rean?" [Ash]
"Can I, become an adventure?" [Rean]
"!" [Ash]
Looks like Brother Ash are surprised by my question, and he seems to be thinking of something. I wonder what Brother Ash think of
_________________________________________________
Hmm... this is bad, I never think this far. I thought they will slowly grow up and decided on their career later, but this is too fast, but if you think of it, this is normal, especially for someone Rean age, but the problem is he is dead serious about it, what should I do
.
.
.
(Rean are still weak, so I'm quite reluctant to give him the permission now but) [Ash]
.
.
.
(His eyes, yup, he is dead serious. Well, he might be weak now but that doesn't mean he will stay weak forever, but I have to think of some test for him, a test to see whether he got what it takes to become an adventure... Got it!) [Ash]
"You seem serious" [Diana]
"Well, I am, since I don't want Rean to become an adventure..." [Ash]
"!" [Rean]
"Why!" [Elise]
"Any reason?" [Ram]
"Hey come on now dude!" [Adventure]
"Ash, Rean seems dead serious now, I don't think it's a good idea to stop him, not without giving any explanation" [Alice]
"I was about to give an explanation when little Elise decided to shout" [Ash]
"Sorry..." [Elise]
"It's alright, just don't do it again" [Ash]
"The reason is?" [Karon]
"Well-first, Alice, can you explain to me the ranking of the adventure guild once again" [Ash]
"Are you serious, well not that I mind" [Alice]
Alice then explain to me the ranking of adventure
SS - Saga, only one person can hold the title at one time
S - legend
A - Expert
B - veteran
C - Experience
D - average
E - learned
F - novice
G - learner
I - newbies
"I see, thanks, and can I ask few more questions?" [Ash]
"I'll be happy to answer" [Alice]
"Well, can you tell me about the typical zombies subjugation request, like how many zombies in single group usually and the rank of the subjugation, and what rank can an adventure tackle the subjugation" [Ash]
"Well, the typical one involved a group of 30-80 zombies, a typical zombies with no variant, usually it is an E rank request but some strong F ranked adventure can handle it solos, provided he or she is strong and prepared extensively for it" [Alice]
"I see, then Rean if you want to become an adventure, you have to defeat a group of 50 typical zombies all by your own" [Ash]
"But how can I find that group of zombies?" [Rean]
"Well, you can find them tomorrow in the field behind our house" [Ash]
"Ehh?" [Other]
"Explain it properly will you" [Ram]
"I love how all of them are equally confused" [Diana]
"Hmmm, Ash, can you allowed some of the adventure to come as well? I just got a brilliant idea and it will be beneficial for the orphanage" [Gizzere]
"Well, if you said so, Syah, can you and your party come tomorrow, and Alice, can you select a few more parties?" [Ash]
"Leave it to me" [Alice]
Well, I can guess what Gizzere is thinking right now, because I have the same idea as her(maybe)
