Caeruleum Guardians(1)

"Uuuhhhhh! How long are we going to go? I just can't wait to go to a dungeon and kick monsters' asses and get rich!" Delirious complained while he watched his friends deal with something.

"You're not alone, buddy." Nogla said to the masked man.

"Two or four hours, I guess." Basically answered his question, "We're planning to recollect more information about this city. We will go to some Guild soon."

"Okay... but this city sure is different, huh."

The others agreed with Delirious' words.

Different from Kalren, Orazvil did have so many mercenaries, hunters, or adventurers than Kalren's; in fact, most people carried weapons in the streets. On the other hand, you could also see a great number of merchants selling their wares, together with beastmen and sometimes Dwarves and even Orcs selling the specialties of their lands. Including other races that are very rare or they couldn't explain like one woman has snakes as her hair, a male with wings on his back like some sort of Angel or a person with a single horn on his forehead like these Asian mythology demons, Onis, and fairies.

However, the only thing missing in a fantasy-like world they were in is Elves, but they didn't think too much about the topic.

Hence, what they learn about this city is xenophobic discrimination in this city was almost nonexistent. And although the conflict between races was not completely eliminated, it was kept to a minimum.

Thus, Vanoss and Wildcat can freely roam around without getting provoked or insulted by a bunch of racist humans. Due to that, Wildcat had been in a very good mood since they entered this city, unlike the one he just went on a rampage in the bar they were in drinking a few weeks ago. 

Well... except for Delirious, no matter which country or city is, most people in Fordalt see Undead as diseases and need to be eradicated, their reputation is even worse than Goblins. The more they learn about the topic, the more Delirious feels he wants to be isolated from any society thinking about many people with pitchforks and torches trying to kill him.

Thinking about it made him shiver.

———————————————————————

After three hours of dealing with something in their unclean apartment like learning more about the other City Sections, secondly went outside eating lunch, then lastly asking around which direction is the nearest Adventurer's Guild. 

With how big Orazvil is, the one who owned the city created eight Adventurer's Guild in each City Section.

[IMAGES]

There are eight largest districts in Orazvil. With each area the size of a city, lateness of work and being fired in jobs is problematic for the citizens in the city. But that's why the founder of the city who built it created eight regions which help the people in the city. Traveling to another district is like traveling to another country in Orazvil's standards.

Another info they've learned for the past few hours is that this city was created 80 years ago after the 2000 meter tall tower, also known as a Tower Dungeon first appeared.

What they learn about dungeons is that they are a phenomenon that appears suddenly in anywhere around the world and any time period. 

They first appeared thousands years ago, even before the first Great War first began, where the Ancient Demons invaded their world. But the details regarding where dungeons come from were erased during the Second Great War a thousand years ago, researchers and scholars desperately tried to find more details about the war but after 900 years of research, it was still ongoing.

While most of the members of Team 6 seem excited to go to the Adventurer's Guild, some of them are not.

"Uhhhhh, guys, why are we here? Why can't we just go straight to the dungeon?"

"We have to become adventurers first before heading to the dungeon, it's a rule here." Moo explained, looking at Terroriser and Nogla, "Except for you two because you guys already signed in as one just a month ago."

"Hold up, we broke rules a thousand times, why follow it now? I thought rule breaking is our thing." Vanoss asked the sane man of the group.

"Well... we and Nogla talk, and..."

"You guys were thinking about those nerdy games?" Wildcat cuts Moo's words and concludes deadpanly, staring at Moo, including Nogla, who stood there with Moo in embarrassment, alongside with the others.

"You know what, fuck it, I want to see how this goes."

As they step into the Guild, Vanoss immediately walked in without saying a word, just kicking the door down in the most epic way possible.

"Boom baby!"

As a result, numerous people are staring at them for just a mere moment before going back to their own business.

"What the fuck is wrong with you? Why did you do that!?" Wildcat shouted at the Owl man.

"Donno." Vanoss simply shrugged with an innocent look.

"Don't let me yeet you off the window, Evan." He threatened.

"Forget him, Tyler. We have no time to complain like little children." Terroriser patted Wildcat's shoulders and walked past him.

Deciding to listen to his cyborg friend, the six went towards the receptionist.

"Y'ello, miss." Terroriser laid his shoulders on the desk and greeted the receptionist in his British impression.

Hearing Brian's calling, a woman turns around startling some new faces. The woman has dark hair in a ponytail style, and heterochromia eyes between scarlet red and emerald green. Seeing some newcomers, the woman greeted them.

"Hello, what can I do for you today?" She said as she smiled very sweetly.

"Hot damn, are every bitches in this world very hot like supermodels?" Wildcat whistled, he smirked at this fine lady in front of him while whispering to Moo who just nodded.

Meanwhile, listening to the Receptionist's question, Terroriser steps forward and continues to speak his British accent.

"I like to register my friends as Adventurers, Hunters, Mercenaries, or whatever the bloody fuck you guys called, except me and Mr. Monocle Gentlesir, the idiot with the green T-shirt says 'Pancake Store' which we have registeed as one already."

"I... see." The receptionist stared at Terroriser oddly because of his behavior, shaking her head, she extended her hand and pointed out, "Then please have a seat, I will get your documents ready in a moment." She pulled out a sheet of paper and a quill and asked, "Do you already have a Party name or joined any yet?"

"Sadly, no. We didn't officially name it because my these dumb fucks kept arguing."

"Okay... but still, it is highly recommended that you do so before exploring the dungeon. You have six other friends behind you, so making a party will not be a problem."

"Alright then! What about the name of our party will be-"

"The Dupe Group." Nogla cut his words off and answered.

"NO!" Vanoss yelled.

Looking at Nogla deadpanly, Terroriser slightly shook his head, "No, Nogla. We have to make something a bit cooler, and a bit more badass when people hear it."

"Team 6." Vanoss this time answered.

"I would agree if Moo isn't with us." Terroriser bluntly says, receiving a loud 'hey' in an angered tone, obviously from Moo.

"Vanoss Crew." Vanoss continued.

"No."

"Vanoss and Friends."

"Okay, you keep talking about yourself."

"Shark eating a Cheeseburger 69" Delirious cuts in.

"Hell no."

"Banana Bus Squad!" Wildcat shouted.

"Hell no-... actually, that's actually not bad. Very new and very stylish."

Opening his eyes wide, Basically immediately rebuked, "Oh come on! We already got called by that name! We have to do somethi-" 

"Okay, Banana Bus Squad indeed."

"No, wai-"

———————————————————————

"Here are your friend's adventurer identification cards, I wish you good luck."

Handing five cards from the receptionist, Brian thanked her.

"Alright, thank you Ms…?"

"Ali-... Alina, just call me Alina." She smiles.

"Alright, Ms. Alina."

After talking to the receptionist, the group decided to leave, as the group of seven men were about to exit the guild, someone burst through the door like what Vanoss did earlier. He appears to have silver hair and ears representing a bear, which means he is a demihuman.

[IMAGES]

"Well, at least I'm not the only weirdo who makes a perfect entrance." Vanoss muttered. And he's not the only guy muttering as most people in the guild whispers to each other about the newcomers.

"It is one of the members of the [Caeruleum Guardians], what is he doing here?" A random adventurer asked his friend by his side.

"Don't know, but I heard rumors that they beat up several parties of E-rank Adventurers just themselves a week ago." Another one stated.

"Yeah, I've heard that too. They are not D-rank Adventurers for nothing."

Hearing the other Adventurers' gossip, the members of the Banana Bus Squad were a bit curious about the group.

"Hey, who are these motherfuckers everyone was talking about?" Marcel whispers to a random Adventurer beside him.

"You mean him? You're new here? Make sense. Okay, well, his Peter from the Adventurer party known as the [Caeruleum Guardians]. A group of D-rank Adventurers and they are known to be the strongest Adventurers group within their ranks. They are the ones that cleared the 50th, 56th, and the 62nd floor of the Dungeon since two years ago. Rumors have it that the Leader of the Party has a passive skill to be able to gain information of one of the person's skills and spells directly or indirectly. That is why a lot of people hate her for looked down on them including her infamous line 'Bunch of weak fucks'."

"Haha! Sounds like me when I shot some Call of Duty noobs to the brim." Wildcat lightly chuckles upon remembering his time pissing off some minors.

"...okay."

'To be honest, Caeruleum sounds like the word 'Blue' in Latin. Coincidence? I think it is.' Basically mentally said.

Not going to involve something they are not planning to do, our lovable retards were about to leave before someone shouts at them.

"Hey, you there!"

Hearing his cry, most of Team 6 felt he was talking to them. 

"Is he talking to us?" Nogla asked.

"Yeah no shit, Sherlock. He's definitely talking to us." Wildcat confirmed it, staring at the Bear Demihuman who is staring at him back.

Turning all of their gaze at the young Bear demihuman, one of Team 6, Delirious asks.

"You're talking to us?"

"Yeah, I'm talking to you! Come with me, my leader likes to see you!"

"Well, ladies. You heard the man." Vanoss spoke out to his friends and took a step forward.

"Wait! Are you sure we should trust the guy? What if his group is gonna attack us!" Moo said with a concerned look.

"If they were, Delirious would summon his black slaves and beat their ass down." Vanoss calmly said, which his words caused Moo and Basically to glare at him in annoyance.

"Ah, fuck it. I'm in the mood for beating a bunch of dumbass characters. Let's go then."

Once Terroriser says that, the six of them step forward except Marcel who just curses his friends before deciding to follow them.

As they approached the male Bear demihuman, Peter smirked at them, "You need to come with me, folks."

"And why would we do that?" Wildcat asked as he crossed his arms, frowning.

"My leader is interested in you seven. Don't know why but she says so. Follow me."

Looking at each other for a moment, they all nodded. They have nothing to do anyway, they all expect some beating to some gang or something, like they always do.
