7 Prologue 7 (2/2)
”Now, if you have any issues, questions or requests you contact me. If you want to accept missions, ask an attended and they will bring you to the right department. If there is anything you want to ask, do it now.”
”Ummm…”
”Since there is nothing you only need to pay and go.”
”… Yes.”
After doing paying, I left the building. For today there was nothing I had to do, I found a small restaurant and ordered something to eat. I took the rule book and started to read it before the food arrived. It was long, longer then you would think.
”Hey, are you a newbie?” while I wasn't paying attention, someone approached me. He looked a few years older than me, wearing leather armor, and a sword on his hip.
”Yes. How did you…?”
”It's the rule book, no one other than newbies read them. You also don't have any armor or weapon, even Arcane artists have them just in case something happens. Plus, you didn't notice me closing in on you.”
”…” He is right in 2 out 3 cases here. ”Who are you?”
”Jackson. I'm the team leader of Red Hawks.”
”Dominique. Newbie.”
”Nice to meet you. If you are eating alone, maybe you want to join us? We are sitting at the back.”
”You are trying to recruit me?” It was obvious.
”Well… we are down one person, they had some family business to take care off. But there is no pressure if you want you can come you will meet everyone and if you are interested…”
”Sure if you don't mind me dragging you guys down a little.”
”Good. This way. So, are you Arcane or Martial artist?”
”Mutant.”
”No way! I never met one in person before. So, what is it? I heard that azure flame is powerful.”
”I wish. Did you see the fight between the Sky Magician and the Earth Dragon?”
”I did! I watched it five times it was that good. Either way… we are here. Everyone this is Dom. Dom this is Marcus, Lily, and Havier.”
When we arrived, everyone eyes were on me. Marcus had black skin and short hair, he was wearing heavy armor, a mix of Kevlar and Steal. If it were new, it would look good, but with its tattered appearance, it only seemed durable. He was most likely a Martial Artist.
Lily was wearing leather armor and a small knife on her hip. She looked nice but wasn't a beauty of Emily or Evelin level. There was no damage to her armor, so most likely she is an Arcane Artist.
Havier. He was unusual. He was wearing very little armor, and his weapon of choice appeared to be a bow. It means he is a Martial Artist bowman. Very rare in these times. With the emergence of firearms, most bowmen died out.
As for Jackson, he was the most stereotypical Martial artist with a bastard sword.
This will be interesting.
