Chapter 8 Adventurers Guild (1/2)

Roland opened up his eyes, his body was stiff and sore This new bed was even worse than the one at the noble estate and it was terribly windy in this cabin He needed to procure so in here, it was dusty and even moldy in a couple of places It didn't look like a place a 10-year-old should be living in

"I need to eat so"

He had so He needed to depend on the er amount of coins he had received, from what he counted they would last hi is free here et to that adventurer's guild, but will they even let a ten-year-old work for them?"

Roland knew that adventurers existed in this world, they were mostly considered sellswords They were s that hunted monsters for parts and defended merchant convoys from bandits most of the tiave theh coin they would do it

"Heh, at least I "

He pulled out a crystal, it was similar to the one used for the ascension ceremony and worked in a similar way Roland knew that they cost a lot, so he nabbed one fro

"With this, I will be able to respec to a blacksmith or Mana scribe not sure what is better"

He nodded and hid the ite in the etting sacked while he ay He couldn't be sure, froical standpoint soet robbed

'But it's the Baron we are talking about he h me up to prove a point'

He decided to burry the class up stone away fro sure that it didn't stand out He had quite the memory so he didn't need to mark the tree he buried it by, which could only alert someone to the buried treasure

"How much money do I have not sure about the market value of food here, they never let us shop for ourselves"

He returned to his cabin and emptied the coin pouch that he had All of the coins were stacked on one pile, he didn't even need to count them thanks to his arithmetic skill He just needed to look at the pile on the table and a nu him the exact amount of coin he had

"This coe silver coinswhat I have here are"

In this world, there were three types of coins with two variations Each coin had a se version The cheapest one was the se copper coin and ten of those orth as olden coins Above a large golden coin stood a royal golden coin that was larger and rectangular in shape

"Some copper coins and silver ones wonder how much this will last Should I cook for lanced to the side and looked at the shabby stove and so for his like apples or sausages that he could eat without cooking

He looked at hied to take a s standard black leather armor It consisted of a chest piece, pauldrons a sword belt, aruards, a belt with a pouch, and leather boots with some knee protectors To the side, he had his shortsword He also nabbed a hunting knife fro, this would save hi utensils The knife could also be used as a last-ditch effort of defending hiht, ti cabin, the thing had a small lock but if someone decided to kick the door down it would snap in half Roland had to move somewhere else, he was in the middle of the forest with no protection In histhat his father set up, he was probably getting watched by someone

'I bet he told people in town to keep an eye out for h I bet it has more to do with the house Arden reputation Can't have so his noble name everywhere'

He was convinced that his so-called dad didn't really care for hiuards so that he wouldn't croak on the first day but from what he saw in the letter the man probably wanted him to join the ar ho under the rules of other people, it was time for some freedom Even back in his old life, he felt like he was too dependant on others, it was tihork out'

It was tio back to the town he had arrived, he remembered the path that the coachman took and backtracked He was slower on foot but with so, he could make it in half an hour if he wanted to The first obstacle proved to be the guards at the entrance, they deht of the bat

"Kid you new here?"

One of the guards asked while giving hie for the suild recruiting?"

The guard raised his eyebrow and looked at the child in front of him Roland was a bit taller then other kids, so he could pass for being older Still, he didn't look older than 12 or 13 at the most

"You? an adventurer? You sure you don't want to work as a stable boy instead?"

The guard shtly annoyed

'damn assholes, will I have to pay an entrance fee each time I come here? I'll be out of cash in no tih the checkpoint he kept walking while looking at the surroundings The e stone blocks and stretched through the city and right towards a large castle-like structure in the distance The castle was probably where the city lord stayed in, or either the noble house that was responsible for this plot of land

He continued on while paying attention to the structures more than to the people The whole place looked like a s were htly tipped at an angle and made from what looked to be thin red bricks tiles

After soe building with saloon-like doors It had a sign with two axes on the sides and one longsword in the uild' ritten

'It will be fine, right?'

He gulped as all of his future plans depended on this If he didn't et a job here he would be forced to work soht not see nervous and just stood there in front of the door not doing anything, while he was hesitating soroup of adventurers, four of them Roland snapped out of it and lance before departing

'Wait was that an elf and that was a dwarf right?'

Roland kept his eyes on the backs of the people that just walked out In his noble house, there were only humans and he never saw any other huoblins that he trained on One of the adventurers was an elven woreen clothes She had an arrow quiver on her back and a longbow to go with it, indicating that she was an archer class

Next to her was a short ht disparity with his width, Roland could clearly see he was quiteax weapon There were two other people with her aa sword and some lady in a robe

'So, that's a full-blown adventurer party? That lady in the robe e or a priest class'

He pumped himself up and finally pushed the doors open, they squeaked as he entered, the people inside gave hiuild was quite large and there were even stairs leading up to a higher level He walked in slowly, as other people were already going in and out

Inside there were your usual things that uild workers were standing, all of thee bulletin board with all of the job listings, finding a suiting job fro looked like a hassle
