Chapter 4 by noodles22 noodles22

You are still on your underwear...

Put some clothes on

You nod at your little sister before walking back to your room. You kneel to open the wooden chest at the feet of your bed, taking your white linen shirt, brown pants, boots, and sharp dagger out of it. Inside the trunk, among other miscellaneous items, there is your father's wedding ring. You look at it with a sad frown on your face, breathing a deep sigh before closing the chest.

Now fully clothed, you are ready to go to work. After saying a quick goodbye to your sister, you finally step out of your house. Next stop, the Adventurer's Guild! ...no, you are not an adventurer, you are actually the errand boy. Delivering letters around, going out searching firewood, sharpening the blades... Not really an exciting job, but the pay is decent.

You walk through the town's main road, keeping a steady pace until you quickly reach the building you were looking for. It would actually look like a tavern if the "Adventurer's Guild" sign wasn't hanging above the entrance door... and, actually, the adventurers here spend most of their time drinking and telling stories between them, like it was a tavern...

You shake the thought out of your head and without any more wait, push the door open and enter into the guild. And yeah, it also looks like a tavern on the inside.

You take some steps forward, the place seems nearly empty except for two burly men in heavy armor chatting around one of the wooden tables scattered around the room. You think you can hear them talking about... what slimes taste like...? But before you can continue eavesdropping on them, you hear somebody clear its throat behind you...

Who?
