## Adventurer’s Guild Hall

It was a building filled with prestige and luxury. A marble structure towered like a sacred museum. Once inside, it was clear the amount of work that had been put into the intricately designed interior. There were tables made from metal where one could see other adventurers giving us a passing glance. There were also glass counters were receptionists received the adventurers. One door near the glass counter lead to Kaspian Bladeheart’s office. The office was minimally decorated with two leather couches positioned to face each other. On the far end of the room was a dark, wooden desk facing the door. Another door at the far end of his office lead to a dark corridor, which in turn lead to the examination hall where the Rank examination takes place. This brightly lit area was an indoor, dirt-floored arena with standard theater seats that appeared more like exaggerated stairs. While most of the seats were empty except for the scattered ten or so people, there was a tense atmosphere as everyone’s eyes focused on the two people at the center of the arena.

## Rank Examination

An Adventurer of B-class or higher has the right to sponsor a new adventurer for an examination. Depending on how well one does, this exam will give an newbie adventurer the opportunity to be placed into a suitable rank. This way, one can avoid the needless struggles of starting from the very beginning. The rank exam will consist of only a practical portion. Usually, there would be a quick application along with an inspection of the mana core before the exam, but Arthur did not need to go through this because of Jasmines influence.

## Adventurer’s

Adventurer is a occupation within the continent of Dicathen.

Adventurers are divided from E-class to S-class and get a Card after registration.

E-Class -> D-Class -> C-Class -> B-Class -> A-Class -> AA- Class -> S-Class

Acquiring an E-class rank, the lowest rank, required taking a test to prevent the Adventurer Guild from sending eager but ignorant adolescents to their deaths.

From E-class to B-class, the card was a copper color, while starting from A-class, it would change to silver, then gold for AA class and finally white for S class.

Someone classified as an AA-class adventurer was at a much higher level of strength compared to an A-class. As the class ranks increased, each jump was exponential, meaning that compared to D-class to C-class, the jump from A-class to AA-class was uncomparable. Being an AA-class adventurer signified that you had the strength of ten A-class adventurers, and that was just a rough estimate.

Adventurers usually do missions that were at, or below, their ranks. These missions included a variety of tasks, from guarding to acquiring specific items. Adventurers could also go to the Beast Glades and explore the region while hunting down mana beasts or go Dungeon-exploring.

Once in awhile, there would be missions posted up that required a couple parties of adventurers. Those were usually for trying to clear and map the harder dungeons that weren’t fully explored. If a mana beast had the power to create its own lair and have other mana beasts serving him, then you could bet there were treasures to be gained.

Once an Adventurer gathered enough merit points from going into dungeons and completing missions and quests, adventurers were allowed the chance to move up a class upon passing an exam.

The exam differed for each class, but supposedly, to go into the A rank, which was the first class considered ’elite.’ the examinee had to fight two-on-one with two A-rank adventurers and last for ten minutes.

## Notes & Trivia

Arthur wanted to take the AA class exam as well after reaching A-Class, but the merit point requirements made it so that he would need to complete a lot more missions and clear many more dungeons before being eligible to do so.

Nevertheless, his fight with the Elderwood Guardian in the Dire Tombs Dungeon (AA Class Dungeon) proves that his physical prowess was already higher than an S-Class Mana Beast during his time as an Adventurer.
