The Guild
Leo:
(A few weeks have passed since we started sharing mana together. I was getting impatient to know what she's thinking since she would always ask me to do mana sharing with her, even though she knew she would face such consequences.)
Leo was currently finishing his breakfast, and when he finished he went outside. He saw his mother talking to Reine and noticed that his mother was giving out worried expressions as Reine seems to try and give reasons for her to calm down. He approached the two
Leo:
[Good morning, mom, sensei]
Andrea looked at Leo for a few seconds then she looked back at Reine
Andrea:
[...are you sure?]
Reine nodded with a smile
Andrea:
[*sigh* fine, I guess I could trust you]
Andrea suddenly hugged Leo
Andrea:
[Just be careful, okay?]
Leo:
(What is she talking about?)
[Okay...?]
After that, Andrea Left
Leo:
[What was that about, sensei?]
Reine:
[I was asking your mother for permission if she will let you go with me]
Leo:
[Go where?]
Reine:
[The Guild]
Leo:
[A guild!?]
(There's Guilds in this world?)
Reine:
[Come on, Let's go]
Leo and Reine walked towards the center of the City of Louz. Minutes later, as they were about to approach the very corner of the city, they heard something.
???:
[HELP!]
???:
[There's no one that could hear you]
???:
[Stop resisting and just come with us. We promise we'll take good care of you, hehehe]
Right behind a building, Reine and Leo were watching.
Leo:
(THOSE FILTH!)
[Hey, Shouldn't we stop them?]
Reine:
[It's really best that we avoid conflict as much as possible inside the city...but]
(This is the time for me to witness his strength)
[Think you can handle them?]
Leo looked at the two people doing the assault

???:
[ANYONE! HELP!]
Louis:
[This bitch!]
As he was about to hit the girl, Leo suddenly appeared and slapped him in the face and was sent flying, hitting a wall.
Klov:
[ THE FUCK!?]
Leo:
(Geez, I thought I controlled my strength...Even 5% is too much)
[I guess you're next]
Klov:
[THIS BRAT! I'LL KILL YOU!]
Leo:
(Let's lower it in 1%)
Klov tried to slash Leo right at his neck. Leo dodged it and gave Klov an uppercut.
Leo:
(Shit! Still too much!?)
Leo waited for Klov to fall down, and when he did, he caught him in his arms then he dropped him.
Reine was completely shocked by what happened. There was nothing she can say about what she just witnessed.
Leo approached the girl
Leo:
[Hey, are you alright?]
???:
[Y-yeah, thank you...]
Leo:
[Why did you enter this place? It's dark and creepy and incredibly dangerous]
???:
[...I got lost]
Leo:
[Oh, then...]
Leo went to Reine
Leo:
[Sensei, I think she got lost...hm? Sensei?]
Reine:
[WHAT JUST HAPPENED!? EVERYTIME YOU MOVED, THEY JUST GOT SENT FLYING!]
Leo:
(Sensei lost her cool)
[Sensei, I think we should focus on the girl first]
Reine:
[The girl?...Ah yes...right...but after this, you have some explaining to do]
Leo:
[G-got it]
Both of them approached the girl
Reine:
[Hey, where exactly are you going?]
???:
[...the guild]
Leo:
[Ah the guild. By the way, what's with the mask?]
???:
[...]
Leo:
(Must be a private matter)
[Sorry, I won't ask further. So the guild, huh? We are actually heading there right now so if its okay with you, do you want to come with us?]
???:
[...]
Reine:
[Don't worry, we're not like those guys. Come with us, well show you the way]
???:
[...thank you]
Leo:
[...Hey, can I ask your name?]
???:
[...ris...]
Leo:
[Hm?]
Iris:
[My name is Iris]
Reine:
(Huh, sounds familiar...)
[So, why do you want to go to the guild?]
Iris:
[post...request...]
Reine:
[Ah, is that so? Anyway, just stick close to us and we'll lead the way.]
Iris suddenly held Leo's shirt
Leo:
[Uh, uhm...]
Reine:
[Not that close though...]
A few minutes later, the trio were able to arrive at the guild.
Leo:
[Waah...hahaha]
(It really is a guild! This is quite nostalgic)
Reine:
[I think this is the first time I've seen you so enthusiastic]
Leo:
[It's a GUILD sensei, how can I not possibly be happy!]
Reine:
[Heh? So you know what a guild is?]
Leo:
(Shit!)
[Uh, uhm...y-yeah, I read about it in my books]
Reine:
[Is that so...Well, let's head in]
As they opened the door, the smell of heavy alcohol filled the place. People with large bodies and are heavily armoured were all over. Large weapons like Axes and Great swords were seen in every corner of the room.
Suddenly, a female Cat-folk approached them with a huge smile on her face.
???:
[Welcome! To our guild-nya!]
Leo and Iris:
(Nya?)
Reine:
[It's been a while, Abby]
Abby:
[Oh, Master Reine. Welcome back! Nya!]
Reine:
[Thanks, by the way, these two are my friends. Leo and Iris]
Abby:
[My, such young friends. Are they here to register, nya?]
Reine:
[No, just Leo. Iris came with us to post a request]
Abby:
[Oh, in that case. Miss Iris can head over to the receptionist corner for posting quests while you and Sir Leo can head to the back, nya]
Reine:
[How about the paperwork?]
Abby:
[There's no need, since you Miss Reine is making the request, nya.]
Reine:
[Is that so. Well then, all that's left is the physical exam]
Abby:
[Yes, and today the registered instructor is sir Bruce]
Reine:
[Wait what!? Isn't that a bit too much?]
Abby:
[It is, but because of the increasing rate of monsters from the other cities. A lot of high ranked adventurers left]
Reine:
[Increasing rate of monsters...]
(That means...it's near)
[Okay, let's go]
Leo:
[Uhm, sensei. Who's Bruce?]
Reine:
[Ah, he's the guild master and you'll be fighting him]
Leo:
[Guild master!? Fight!?]
