The Beginning of the new journey

As Kairos entered the bustling streets of Eldoria, a different kind of whisper began to weave through the crowd.

"Who is that?" a merchant sneered, eyeing the newcomer with suspicion. "He walks as if he owns the place."

A child, eyes wide with a mix of fear and curiosity, hid behind her mother's skirts. "Mama, why does he look so strange?", "shhhhh! Don't look at him".

Kairos, feeling the weight of many eyes upon him, searched for the guild. The Quantum System's screens offered no guidance on navigating the maze of human emotions.

Approaching a group of guards, he asked, "Where can I find the guild?"

The guards smirked, sharing a look of amusement. "Oh, the guild? It's past the Silver Fountain. Just follow the stench of arrogance; it seems to be coming off you in waves."

With a stiff nod, Kairos moved on, the jeers of the townspeople echoing in his ears.

"Look at him, no dirt under his nails, no calluses on his hands. What does he know of hard work?"

"They say he's touched by the cosmos. More like cursed, if you ask me."

Reaching the guild's doors, Kairos steeled himself. This was more than a quest for allies; it was a test of his resolve in the face of scorn.

The heavy wooden doors creaked open, revealing the dimly lit hall within. Kairos stepped inside, his presence drawing a new set of eyes. The guild members paused, their conversations dwindling into silence.

A grizzled veteran leaned against the bar, his scarred face breaking into a mocking grin. "Another hero, come to save us from the drudgery of our lives?" he barked, laughter erupting from his companions.

Kairos's gaze remained steady, his voice calm but firm. "I seek membership and camaraderie, not adulation."

Person1 Guild Luravan1:"Are you joking? you don't look like strong enough to kill a lvl 1 goblin"

The whole people in guild keep laughing at him 

The room erupted into a cacophony of voices, each member voicing their skepticism.

"He doesn't look like much. Probably another dreamer thinking the Quantum System will make him invincible."

"I bet he's never faced a real challenge in his life."

The guild master, a towering figure with eyes like polished steel, stepped forward. "Enough!" His command silenced the room. "If it's membership you seek, then you shall have your chance. But know this, the Quantum System or not, you'll earn your place here just like everyone else."

"Oh! By the way i forgot to explain"

"Before you can join our ranks, you must undergo the Rite of Ascension, a test to measure your true power."

"I need to hide my true power just incase".

Kairos stepped forward, accepting the challenge. The guild members gathered around, their curiosity piqued as the master led Kairos to the center of the room where a pedestal awaited, topped with a crystalline orb.

"Place your hand upon the Orb of Judgement," instructed the guild master. "It will reveal your strength and assign you a rank within our order."

Kairos complied, his hand closing over the cool surface of the orb. A pulse of light emanated from within, and the Quantum System's screens flickered in response.

*Everyone is curious*.

"Behold, the Eight Stages of Ascension:"

1. Novice Nebula - The starting point for all, where potential is yet to be realized.

2. Astral Apprentice - For those who have begun to harness their inner cosmos.

3. Stellar Sentinel - Guardians whose power has proven them in battle.

4. Galactic Guardian - A rank for the valiant, defending the order from threats.

5. Void Voyager - Explorers of the unknown, braving the darkest corners of space.

6. Nebular Knight - Noble warriors, their names known across the stars.

7. Celestial Champion - Few reach this stage, their might shaping the fate of galaxies.

8. Quantum Quasar - The pinnacle of power, reserved for legends who transcend time itself.

The orb's light shine to a blinding brilliance before dimming. The guild master studied the result, his eyes widening with a mix of respect and disbelief.

"By the cosmos... Kairos, you have been granted the rank of..."

The guild members leaned in, their breaths held in anticipation.

"Astral Apprentice."

Guild Luravan2 "See He is nothing what a low level mortal"

Person 1: "Right Astral Apprentice? what such a low rank"

"Don't listen to them Wear this with honor, Kairos. Your journey with us begins now.*"

Kairos nodded, accepting the unspoken challenge. The trials ahead would be tough, but with the Quantum System at his command and a universe of potential within him, he was ready to face whatever the guild—or the cosmos—threw his way.
