HUNTERS GUILD ( 1 )
In the Black Cloud City, there was a famous street known as Hunter's street, because Hunters Guild is located in this street. Due to that lot of popular stores that sell Armors, Weapons, Talismans, and Pills exist here. So it was always a crowded street. Robin who is in a very happy mood after hearing the effects of the Fiery pill from Jasper is now walking in that busy street while thinking to himself,
'Even if I was watching these fantasy being from 5 years old, this still feels fresh'
Because here in this street, it not like the Rose inn that is populated by humans, here there are other species at the same ratio of humans.
Robin stared at a big lizardfolk man with a majestic look carrying two big battle ax behind his back was coming out of the Hunters Guild with a five-man party of diverse species.
'He looks just like the villain from the movie Amazing Spiderman.'
That lizard man sensed Robin's gaze and looked towards him. Upon that Robin diverted his gaze. Sensing that their leader who was walking before them now stopped suddenly and is looking towards a certain direction, the lizard man's party also looked at Robin following their leader's gaze.
Feeling the five-man party's stare at him, Robin whistled to himself and crossed them as he entered into the Hunters Guild, while not turning his head to the staring party.
'Damn, I just looked at him, why are they looking at me like they are gonna eat me'
Even after entering the Hunters Guild, Robin felt their gaze behind his back.
After seeing that Robin has entered the Hunters Guild, an Ugly Orc man that wears a chest plate armor and carrying a great greatsword on his back in the party asked the lizard man,
"Leader Traz, due you know that human kid?"
With a hoarse voice, the lizard man named Traz replied,
"I don't know him personally, but I have seen his picture, he is the one that killed the head butchering duo this morning"
Hearing that his whole party became shocked and a Frog folk man, that was shortest on the party mumbled as he looked toward the Hunter Guild entrance,
"But he doesn't look strong at all"
That Frog-Man was carrying a crossbow and a dagger.
The Orc man agreed,
"Yep. Bogart is right, Leader. He looks like a rich pant snob to me"
The Frog man's name is Bogart and he is happy on the Orc man agreeing his statement.
Hearing his parties words, Traz said with a stern voice,
"That's the difference between us and humans, Nuz, they are best at deceit and hiding their powers deep. Come, let's meet up with Hade and search for the last two members to do the mission."
The Orc man named Nuz, nodded like he understood something.
Seeing Nuz nod his head, Traz started to walk.
Everyone followed Traz disappearing into the street's crowd.

After entering the Hunters Guild Robin saw many different species along with humans swarming everywhere.
'It's too much crowded in here'
Robin marveled because the Hunters Guild is not anything like the vacant Assassin Guild, not only from the outside even from the inside Hunters Guild looks like a Palace. Every nook and corner of the Guild is shining with Gold. The whole inner hall is decorated with Golds and beautiful gems,
'It's Royalty, that too it's only a side branch, how grand would the Hunters Guild's Main Branch in Verona be'
Without staring at anyone and gaining unwanted attention, Robin scanned his surroundings. He saw several big digital like magic boards and the people standing before those boards and starting into them, it is the Bounty Quest board, from that people could select the Bounty they want according to their level.
Once you accept your quest, you just have to swipe your badge upon it and it will get acknowledged. A quest can be taken by several people, according to the requirement and difficulty of the quest. But the reward will be transferred to the party leader and he will be the one to share the reward.
Then Robin saw at the two counter with the name board, Bounty Application, and Bounty Reward.
Bounty Application - is for giving the Bounty quest. They will process the quest details and input it as per their difficulty and rewards from the quest givers.
'It is also a little crowded'
Bounty Reward - is for gathering the rewards after the completion of the Bounty quest and to upgrade the badge level. That is also the target location of Robin. He is here to get his reward.
As Robin reached the Bounty Reward counter, he saw a pretty girl in pink with rabbit ears sitting behind the counter.
'Bunny girl.'
That is the first thought that strikes Robin when he looked at her.
This is the first time Robin seeing a Bunny folk live, so he gawked at her with a funny look on his face.
But the bunny girl Bella who is used to this look just smiled as asked the gawking Robin,
"Hello, I'm Bella, how may help you?"
Hearing that Robin realize his funny appearance and coughed several times and said with a little red face,
"Hai, im Robin, I came to get the Bounty reward on the Head Butchering Duo."
Upon finishing his sentence Robin took out the heads of the Head Butchering Brothers from a white storage ring on his left-hand finger and placed it on the desk before Bella. This is the storage ring of Aron, one of the brothers.
Recognizing that it was the head butchering duos, Bella collected them after some simple process. She didn't show any reaction on seeing two bloodied heads, because it's her profession. Then she took out a blue crystal cube about one square foot, and asked Robin,
"Do you have a bank account linked?"
Robin nodded his head and extended his left wrist toward her. Bella typed something on the blue cube then the Bounty details about the Head Butchering Mission appeared on it. Nodding her head Bella said,
"I have received the report from the Hawks that you have completed the Bounty Quest. But you didn't accept the Bounty Quest from the Hunters Guild, so I have to deduct the fee."
Robin became stunned and felt a not good premonition.
Bella made a beautiful smile and said,
"The Bounty Reward is 20000 GC, after deducting normal commission for the Hunters Guild you get, 18000 GC. And you completed the quest without taking the Bounty, so it will affect the people's soul that took the quest and worked hard for it. And deducting the penalty, you get, 15000 GC. Okay."
Hearing that Robin lost his cool and shouted,
"Not okay at all...It's cheating, You are robbing me, it not fair at all."
Upon his shout, everyone around the counter started to look towards him. Realizing his rudeness Robin looked apologetically towards at Bella whose face is now reddening.
"Hey, you did a mission without accepting it from us the Hunter Guild. We only accepted to reward you on the face of Hawks under leader Cras's recommendation. Don't think anyone can kill anyone and get a reward."
Hearing Bella's words, realization stuck Robin,
'If anyone can kill anyone, yes that's it. If you can kill people and get a reward just because there is a Bounty on them, then what is the reason for Hunter Guild's existence. Damn, my mistake'
Knowing that he is in the wrong, Robin apologized to Bella with a sincere look on his face,
"Sorry for that, im in the mistake."
Seeing that Bella nodded her head and told him to extend his hand, Robin obeyed her and extended his hand, then he received a notification on his Manaphone that 14000 GC has been transferred into his account. Robin looked up at Bella after checking the message, whereupon she explained with a smirk on her face,
"Shouting at me inside the Hunters Guild is an offense and so I penalized you"
Robin's face became green,
'Damn! witch! Give me my apology back'
But not able to do anything to her, Robin just let out a deep sigh.
'Picking up girls is costly'
Not caring about his melodramatic reactions, Bella said,
"Show me your Badge"
Hearing that Robin with a miserable look on his face took out his Badge from the white ring and gave it to her, looking his badge she became shocked,
'How did he get this badge and why is he only at the bronze level, he still hasn't even accepted a single mission. He really is a weird one. It is going to be fun with him around here.'
