Chapter 2 - a path

after waking up at 7 am the first thing john did was making breakfast and getting ready for resignment because he was not going to continue to work as a x butcher with his mysterious gift. he found out he could actually raise his level with killing monsters so he was going to do just that.

first thing first the resignment and then he was going to build his own adventure team with the gold he has been storing for his awakening witch he clearly didn't need anymore and with the apraisal skill he got witch shows stats and all the information and potential he could pretty much find the best comrades for himself.

'statuse'

strength:10

agility:10

stamina:10

mana:0

reflex:1

appraisal(unranked)

attribute:void

he watched his statuse and noted what he needed to work on immediatly , first his mana and the lack any defensive or offensive skills.

the awakened in this world gets skills as he gorws stronger based on his attribute and his focus on strength, for example a person with wind attribute and high stat in agility gets a speed related or a close combat skill but he wasn't the same .

he went through the system last night and he now knew all he needed to know about this gift of him.

''milenya im going out, i put breakfest for you on the table see you''

''ok brother, keep safe'' came a sweet voice from the room near him

and just like that his journy started he went first went to his work place where he worked as a x butcher then did all the paper work for resignment with a fee paid then he went to the adventure guiled in his town, every town had one small adventure guild where people try to go for a little hunt for money and gold simply put same as mercenery.

he made his way to the reception as he looked around nothing new just a wooden hall with magic lamps hanging from the roof.

''hello, i am here for finding adventures to make a team what is the conditions'' he looked at the receptionist, a woman in mid twenties as he said.

'' hello mr welcome to the blar adventure guild , the requirment for your term is 50 silver and signing a document with you and your team's members after that you can take quests and start your work and if you are new and don't have a certification you can take the test and find your rank and start looking for the same ranks and making your team''the woman said in a businnus tone like she did this her whole life.

'' ok thank you, i like to take the test right now''he already know he is the weakest of weakest so he just wanted the certification to start his work right away

''ok follow me ''she said as she lead the way to a hallway that lead to a room with a small orb in middle and a dummy on far end of the room

'' we test your mana and attribure affinity with the orb and your physical prowess with the dummy please stand in front of the orb and put your hand on its surface and inject your mana into it''

''i dont have mana''said politely

''wh_what?, you dont have mana ? then how do you want to asses your rank without mana ?''

''can i just get the lowest rank certification and start my work?''he said respectfully 

'' that is possible but your life is in danger in quests if you are not strong enough are you sure about it ?''she asked geniunly even as she just found out he didnt have mana her attittude towerd him didnt change.

''yes,please''

''ok plaese stand outside while we work on your certification''

''ok''

and like that he waited 10 minutes and then he recieved a silver plate that his name and rank witch was F rank right now, although he didnt particully showed it he was a little dissapointed with his rank not like he would let this get to his head

'alright time to start the real show'

if i want to look for possible potential comrade i need to look all the streets and bars and other worn down places, i dont want a simple member of my team i want a comrade for the rest of my time as an adventurer 

and like that he went to all streets but didnt find any potential comrades as he was getting disappointed after 2 hourd he found a bar and went in after he went in he used appraisal and saw something that made his eyes gleamer with hope

as he watched the screen he couldnt but feel amazed at the sight, an ss rank right infront of him and noone noticed this guy potential just because he was an orphan with no support to unleash it , i hit the jackstop 

he couldnt help himself and grinned widely then he walked to the boy with blond hair and blue eyes with a handsome and sharp face that even the dirts on his face couldnt conceal

''hello can i take your time a little?'' he asked with gleaming eyes as he looked at the boy in the question

ryan who noticed he was talking to him stared and him and didnt say anything thats right he was cautious he had learned his lessons in this harsh environment more than once and had his gaurds up no matter the situation 

john who felt the boys intiamiated pose immediatly pulled his hood down and said

''im here to ask if you would like to be an adventure by joining my team''

ryan looked at him and tried to find his true purpose but no matter what he couldnt sense any ill intentions so he opened his mouth

''why me?''

'' because you have high potential''

ryan's eyes widened this was the first time someone had praised him and not just a simple manner but potential of an awakened

''if you are joking this is a sensetive matter please mind your manners''

'' im not, here this is my id you can check it and after thinking through it i will come at this time tommorow right here and we will talk about your desicion how about it ?'' john who was mature anough at the age of 17 was trying his best to bring ryan into his team while making a good impression 

''alright'' ryan said with hesitation 

john who saw this game him space and went back on his way to home

time flew by and tommorow at 7 pm john was waiting at the place he was supposed to meat ryan 

as he was watching he saw a boy approaching him and soon noticed it was ryan

''hello mr.john ''

''hi, so did you make your choice?''

''yes, i will join your team but_'' ryan hesitated 

''but?''john asked with a raised eyebrow 

''but i will be expensive i have a brother to look after ''

''how much ? ''

''50 silver per week and a portion of what we hunt ''ryan said he knew what he asked was a lot but he had no other choice 

''okay , we can start tommorrow morning at 9 am at the adventure guild be ready '' ryan was taken back how simply john accepted his terms but of course john knew ryan was way more valuabale so he didnt try to make his life harder 

''ok we can do that '' ryan said with a smile as he thought about his brother being able to get treatment and eat good foods again 

'with this now i can start to get stronger and gain money while expanding my team'
