Chapter 113 - The Test



"What did you do Danzel?" Serran asked.

Following closely behind him, I replied coldly.

"I haven\'t done anything really, they just came and seek from trouble."

Seeing me from the side, he touched his templed´s with his finger before sighing to himself.

"Sigh...If I knew that this would happend I wouldn´t have told you to come in..." Serran mumbled to himself.

"Sorry, what did you say? I couldn´t hear you from all the sound."

"Nothing..." Shaking his head, Serran replied.

Walking at the reception, the employee that I saw with those two was waiting for us.

"Is this the guy who wanted to join the Durendal Association as a mercenary?" The employee said as he looked at Danzel front head to toe.

"Yes, he was the one who disposed of the Hound in the Berum territory." Serran nodded in confirmation.

Putting a frown on his face he looked at Danzel with doubt written on his face.

"You saying that he killed that damn hound alone?" 

`Hmm...´ Danzel\'s ethereal eyes gazed at the man with an ice-cold glare.

It was obvious that this guy wouldn´t believe it even if I were to tell him the truth.

And Danzel wasn´t wrong about that.

After all, this mission although it was put on the B-rank, it got infamous for being in truth an A-rank mission on which many mercenaries failed and died upon challenging the mission.

Even if he wanted to, he couldn´t believe that just one guy managed to achieve something of this level on his own.

"I did in fact kill that guy together with his pack alone, but I doubt you will believe that..." Danzel said his this ice-cold voice.

Staring at Danzel for good five seconds long, the guy turned around and brought out a piece of paper together with a pen.

"Here, fill out this with your personal information." The man said blandly.

"..." Taking the paper out of his hands, Danzel started to read it thoroughly.

Well... they weren´t much to read in the first.

I just had to fill out my name, gender, race, speculation, and other similar things.

Which were for Danzel quite awkward to answer.

Like his birthdate...

He couldn´t just write four months ago, right?

Starting with his name, he decided to instead of writing Rue Danzel to go for Letum Danzel.

Though he was quite far away from Berum, he didn´t really want to risk it by a chance someone from the army recognise his name.

Writing his new identity done, he went towards the difficult section...

Gender and race...

Though he was pretty confident to say that he had the mind of a man, he had no clue if his skeletor body was one of a female or male...

`I am barely at the 2 meters tall and my bones look pretty thigh to be a body of a woman\'s, considering those facts the chances of having a woman´s skeletor body should be low...´

Flinching from the very idea of it, he quickly wrote down male as his gender and human for his race.

The reason for that was simply because he saw more humans than people of the other race.

Humans shouldn´t gather any unwanted attention which should be avoided.

That...

And he couldn´t just write down an undead.

That would be no different than bashing his own skull towards the wall while begging others to come and kill him.

As for his speculation, he just write down to be a knight, since he was often being called one.

After finishing filling up the paper, he gave it to the employee.

"Letum Danzel, huh?"

After finishing reading the paper, he turned around while mentioning to following him.

"Where are we going?" Danzel asked.

He is is is thought that filling up the paper will finish his registration in the association.

"Where are going to test your combat abilities"

"My what..?"

But was wrong.

As he was following the employee, we shortly reached a large room with weapons lying to the side of the walls.

"This is..." Before Danzel could ask, he was cut short.

"Tell me, what do you define strength tier to be?"

"Excuse me?" He asked confused.

With a frown on his face, the man said.

"You tier, what´s your tier?"

"Ehm..." Opening his status he quickly gazed at the remark.

[Remark: A Undead Black Guard nearing the 3rd-tier, with knowledge of runes and skills, far surpassing that of a Draugr, one would never expect that his powerful Draugr warrior would spend months sitting at home and stealing from others.]

Ignoring the second half of the remarks nonsense, he focused on the \'nearing the 3rd-tier\' part.

\'Since it says nearing I should be still at the boundary of the 2nd-tier\'

"I have the strength of a 2nd-tier." He said as he removed the floating status in the window in front of him.

"I see..." Turning around, he went towards the door and left shortly.

"Wait here while I bring your opponent here..."

*Bang

Closing the door, Danzel was left there waiting awkwardly.

And after twenty minutes of waiting, the employee arrives with a middle-aged guy.

"The man beside me is Karl Heston, one in the early steps of the 3rd-tier and your today\'s opponent."

"Hello there." Karl said politely.

Starting at the man in front of him, Danzel couldn\'t help but ask.

"Didn\'t I tell you that I am on the 2nd tier? Why do I have to fight against someone of a higher rank?" Said Danzel

Though he didn\'t have much of tiers, the things that he heard were that the higher the rank, the stronger the someone where.

Fighting a losing battle was a big no-no in Danzel\'s book.

Showing for a second a wet smile, the employee replied.

"The reason of it being the case is to have an expert figure out your strength while avoiding any kind of harm..." 

"I see..." Danzel nodded in understanding.

He would be lying if he wasn\'t excited.

As long as he is aware, that guy was supposed to be his first-time fighting someone with a superior tier.

Gripping the hilt of Veren, he was about to unsheath the blade before he stopped.

\'If I were to draw Veren out of this sheath, wouldn\'t they know that it has a runed weapon\' As Danzel was contemplating on what to do, Karl raised his hand and pointed at the wall.

"Wait wait. We aren\'t going to use actually our actual weapons in our possession. We will be using those ones.

Looking at the direction he was pointed at, he was slightly surprised.

Though he didn\'t take a good look before, seeing now all kinds of dull weapons being lined up there. You can choose whatever weapons you are most comfortable with.

" I see..." Sighing internally, he turned around towards the weapons.

\'So that\'s the target that kid wanted to give a beating\' Karl thought to himself as he watch his boss the employee.

Though he didn\'t like doing such a dirty job, he wouldn\'t mind doing it against a cheater who lies before even joining the association.

Of course, the gold coins he received also played a big continuation in convincing him to do the man\'s bidding.

Starting at Danzel who picked himself a longsword together with a shield, he walked towards Karl slowly.

Though the blade was dulled on purported, the blade was still made out of metal which could also inflict heavy wounds.

Since they couldn\'t use wooden swords for a spar because of the strength that people were too cause they break so easily, they had to settle down with dulled blades.

At first, Karl found the combination of Danzel\'s white weird weapons.

It was common knowledge that holding a long sword required both arms while the shield limited the user to hold a much smaller weapon.

But seeing that guy break that common knowledge, Karl was slightly surprised.

Going to the side of the wall, he picked a random sword and walked away from Danzel only to stop around 15 meters far away.

Karl nodded towards the employee so that he can start.

Raising his hand high up, he bought it down as he yelled.

"Go!"

As Karl was about to rush towards Danzel, he suddenly halted and stared in surprise towards his opponent.

Looking at the eerie killing intent coming out of his body, Karl frown.

"This guy..."

As he said that, dark green mana started to engulf Danzel.

As a veteran mercenary, Karl had seen many things in his whole life.

From monsters to weird spells, he saw many things.

But what he was currently seeing was a first in his whole life.

Having operated mostly on the Arcana kingdom he saw many magic casters.

But for him to see the color of mana bring dark green was a first.

Putting some strength on his legs, Danzel dashed forwards with the shield in front of him with incredible speed

Leaving to small crates at the ground where he previously was.

"This speed!"
