2 Enrolling (1/2)

After a short walk he reached a big gate on top of which there were the words ”Universal School 34573” The gate looked like it had not been repaired for at lest a decade. * The name really fits the look but what would one expect from a free school in the slums. *

After Ivan enters the gate he finds himself on a big square which was filled with others, which seemed to be of the same age as him.

”Hey, have you decided on which apartment you want to join?”

”Yeah, I want to join the Adventurer department.”

”Really, are you sure? Even through adventurer can earn a lot of money their death rate is high too.”

”I don't have a choice. There are five hungry mouths at home and my dad is ill, so I have to make some money fast and the only way to do that is to join the adventurer department.”

”Oh, then I can only wish you luck.”

”Thank you, but what about you?”

”I'm lucky, my dad just got another job and so I can join the blacksmith department.”

”Oh, I'm really envious. Later on you could then craft my equipment.”

”Sure thing. Even through we blacksmiths won't earn much at the start, later on it's something else entirely.”

Ivan listened to the conversations of some nearby boys and only now found out, that there were different departments he could join. * Damn, I don't have any idea what departments there are and which I should join. *
