Master Of None

Chapter 1235 – 1235. Don’t Worry

"I swear, busier and busier every day. Tomorrow I have to make an announcement to all of Genesis. How do I do that!" Clara was speaking to herself mostly. But Barry was still in the room and was not having her chickening out of it. 

"You are the only one that could represent the guild like that. Where we have power. You have the wisdom and system to make it work. Why do you think you will be considered the best master of the adventurer's guild in the future? This is a title you are guaranteed to have. You have a system made for this. A will able to withstand anything, and, you control the most powerful warriors that can cross kingdom borders at will." Barry was not wrong. Clara shouldn't fear speaking to a single city when she would send adventurer's throughout the continent from now on. 

"I know you are right but that does not make it easier. The dwarves made some crystal and light magic invention with the elves and they say I will be seen by everyone the night of the announcements. I don't like that. I will look weak compared to the idea of what adventurers should be." The idea that a slim woman like her was the head of the adventurer's guild was what she worried about. Looks meant a lot to the common people. They looked at a soldier and expected powerful people. Not someone weak. That was the same with adventurers. 

Her party may have shocked people by looking young, but they also had a dragon with them. Perfect gear, and a reputation that everyone gossiped about. Not many knew that she was the respected leader of that party. "Wair, they are going to stand behind me when I present. I will make them wear their best and show the entire city that I am with powerful people as well. You too! Don't try to sneak away. You will be there and leave tomorrow night instead." Clara had given Barry the quest from the Genesis council to head toward the mountains to deal with some rogue dragons. But he would now be leaving later and have to make up the time somehow. 

"I should have known this would happen. I will wear my armor too instead of my usual." Barry didn't like wearing armor since it slowed him down. But now he would do it for this one time. He would gladly make sure that the guild master was respected the same way he was as the vice guild master. "Also, use that skill that makes most adventurers quiver like a leaf in the wind. I don't know what it is but it really works well. Your system gave you something good." 

"Wait! What a star-" The door was closed and Barry was gone. "What stare is he talking about? I don't have such skills…" Clara mumbled to herself while she began to write her short speech. she didn't want to be the one that started off the months of competition and economic growth since it would put a lot of pressure on the people starting anew. However, she knew it was the best way for the city to begin its growth and push them in to a higher tier of living to put them even with other cities. 

"Miss! Miss!" One of the younger adventurers had rushed to the open counter on the first floor of the adventurer's guild. Many had been showing up and hanging out in the lower level to listen to rumors and decide on quests. Just because some high level parties had managers didn't mean all did. It was often decided by the party leader what would happen and what quests would be taken. 

"And how may I help you today? You look full of energy, a big quest?" The female staff member was slightly surprised since the boy had only just realized she was a demon. This was one of the first demons to have been rescued and she had managed to find a home and a job within Genesis. The adventurer's guild had welcomed her well and she could not think of a better place to be. 

"Uhmm- yes! I was looking for quests but I heard that there would be a big quest released soon by the guild? One that could help us move up to the next tier?" The boy quickly got over seeing a demon and went on to ask his questions. He had heard the rumor earlier that morning and was waiting with his party to see if there would be more information. He finally decided to rush up to the counter and ask. 

"Of course, many are interested in that. There will be an announcement tomorrow night. The guild will play a large role in the competition kick off. The adventurers at your level are welcome to participate and encouraged. Even if you do not move up a tier you will gain a lot of connections, experience, and be a step closer to moving up a tier. I highly recommend you prepare for at least a week or two of adventuring." This was the same thing many staff members had been saying. Yet it was more than the boy had. 

"Thank you so much. I will get everyone ready as soon as possible!" He rushed away as if he was on fire. The three other members of his party watched his expressions and knew that the rumors were true and they would be able to get a quest that would push them higher in to the guild rankings. They wanted to be the next heroic party. The next party to travel to cities they had never been to. They wanted to discover an entirely new world that no one else had seen for generations. It was their time to shine.
