An Extra’s POV

Distant footsteps could be heard as two individuals trod down the path that many took.

Yet, for some reason, only these two currently walked it.

They wore contrasting attires, easily drawing the attention of the people around them. A few individuals even trailed behind them, maintaining their distance of course.

One or two of these people had been watching these two strangers from the moment they stepped into the city through the South Gate.

It wasn't strange for the Adventurers City to have guests or visitors, but something about these two made them stand out, and it wasn't just their well-made and pristine outfits.

They had a unique aura about them, and any veteran could tell just from a glance.

Whoever they were, the two were strong.

After walking for a while, they finally arrived at their destination—the only place strangers in the City would be interested in.

—The Adventurers Guild.

The place was a tall, massive building. It had at least five separate Floors, not counting the Ground Floor. It also had an intimidating aura about it to ward off those who were too weak-willed to take a bold step of faith.

This was the effect of an especially powerful Enchanted Item, so it wasn't news to see one or two fools attempt to join the ranks of Adventurers, only to piss themselves and run away scared.

Not everyone was cut out to be an Adventurer. The Item's effect was meant to prove that by exposing the frauds among those who wanted to give it a shot.

Only those who were truly cut out for the task could step into the Guild.

Usually, amused grins would be let out by spectating Adventurers, but no one said or did anything this time.
