The Game Rune System

Chapter 64: The beginning of Rainbow Adventurers!

You either could begin the business on the whim and see how it goes, or register it properly in the capital.

Tetsuya decided to go for the former option as he would need to explain a lot of stuff to the administrators.

Questions such as 'How did you get money to start business' or 'What family are you from' would bother and Tetsuya would get more irritated with the check-ups.

He also didn't plan to reveal any of his connections such as The Fourth Young Master of Yulia Household yet.

After all, Tetsuya's looks were still sealed and this status would be his far future!

Tetsuya hadn't asked much about registration, but he could feel such questions miles away as the whole eastern province had been such a pleasure to move around. It seemed like the crime rate was way too low here and lands were stainless.

Of course, he hadn't adventured around here and used the popular roads, but the difference was enormous between south and east!

He could tell that Big Mom's rule would make him answer such questions!

"If we begin Rainbow Adventurers without registration, then all we have to do is fake some treasure hunt. It should be easy with our game rune!" Ashley hummed from inside.

"Yeah, that's the plan," Tetsuya added.

The game rune's plan had been to change the world ever since!

It would be impossible for administrators to check everything that this rune would do. Even more, Tetsuya could just say that he had heard about similar events in his first province, meaning that Reyas' moderator skills would be his cover.

As the whole thing has been decided by the two game masters, Tetsuya could only buy a cheap house for himself in one of the cities.

Funds from Milady Yuhi had been used wisely, so Tetsuya began to search for the first mercenaries that would fill his business.

The best way would be to nurture the lowest and most known 'E' rank mercenary into superhuman in a short amount of time.

Such things would surely attract a lot of attention and Tetsuya would be able to see through people's potentials with his game rune.

Getting more people to strengthen themselves would bring him far more 'experiences' and stats, that later could turn more valuable as stronger people would notice his 'adventurers' and spar or work together with them.

Leaving his house, Tetsuya glanced behind. His partner was also looking with her eyes dilated, "A cute, small house." Her voice rang out from within.

The house was so small it would need to be upgraded as soon as possible. However, Tetsuya would rather buy the whole neighborhood if he were to have much more influx than expected.

For now, this small house would be enough since the plan was to get at least a few E rank adventurers, including the most popular and weakest E one.

Tetsuya left the house with a smile on his face, "Let's find our first adventurer."

-

There were two known weakest adventurers in Eastern Part.

Of course, there would be normally one the weakest, but the current ones were siblings with their strength literally the same.

They were nineteen years old siblings that had lost their parents early on. Without any abilities and much knowledge, the siblings had to resort to steal.

This stealing had lasted for three years before severe punishment turned their lives harder.

By this time, the siblings could wield some weapons and began to hunt the weakest beasts to sell just as many resources as possible, then to eat the poorly cooked meat!

Their whole focus had been survival, but who would like to stay the weakest for their whole life?

"I can help you get rid of that title." An unknown person reached out for them.

He had plain looks, looked kinda fake and his smile unmatched those confident eyes highly. For a moment, the siblings felt like they were looking at the man with many deceiving abilities on his face.

'Is he here for me?' Through eye contact, the lady asked her sibling. She was far from beautiful and her poor clothes with dull skin certainly would make her be the last in any beauty contest.

Her name was Millia.

Her brother, Marre, glanced to the side. Using the same sibling connection, he told his sister that this shouldn't be the case

There were far easier targets with better looks. If someone wanted to find a person to protect and show off, then Millia surely wouldn't be such a 'person'. 

Millia's eyes narrowed, and she threw an angry glare. However, her brother just said the truth she couldn't refute at all.

It would be also stupid to lie in front of an unknown man, so part of her was glad that her brother had been staying cautious and clear-headed.

"You know my name already So I will tell you about our business. The business is called Rainbow Adventurers, the goal to make each mission perfectly balanced." The person who called himself Narashi spoke.

Of course, Tetsuya couldn't speak openly about Ashley's noble desire and used a different phrase to emphasize that.

He spoke about the perfect balance as mercenary work was harsh no matter what, "Our journey towards the mission's location will be nothing, but the pleasure. Then, our work will be the usual work filled with hard-work and challenges. Then, our return will be yet another adventure that will end up etched within your hearts. Our cooperation will be nothing, but an arduous and pleasurable experience, though."

The siblings looked into each others' eyes properly right now.

No more sneaky eye contact, but proper look with their heads turned to the side.

It was easy to tell their emotions. A suspicion immediately sprouted within their hearts and even a few steps were taken back.

They were not trusting Tetsuya at all and his whole appearance was of that beggar. He didn't look like a mercenary nor did he have anything to prove himself.

Was there also a wooden sword around his hip? Wooden sword?

"I see where you have been looking at" Tetsuya smiled, "How about we go for a spar then?"

"Hey, you!" A sudden interruption barred Tetsuya's way.

It seemed like not everyone had been laughing or insulting the siblings as there was a person who stepped out to help them.

It was a lady with an axe as her primary weapon. She had light-weight equipment on her body and ravishing black hair falling just to her chest.

Her name was Skylar as per her teammates' shouts, "Skylar! Just leave them alone! If they are too stupid to follow someone foreign, then just let them go? Come on!"

"I don't condone any schemes to use people!" Skylar threw her hair behind, then reached out for the axe.

This weapon pointed at Tetsuya, her glare menacing, "You wanted to go somewhere? Why did you stop moving?"

"Ladies first." Tetsuya smiled, his words erasing that glare in less than second.

A faint giggle could be heard from behind him. However, Skylar was on their side, so siblings composed themselves quickly and followed her as she left the mercenary guild with faint blush on her face.

Skylar's teammates, irritated as hell, lazily left the guild as well to see their teammate's spar.

Tetsuya was all smiles as he raised his sword, "Since you are butting your way into my business, you also gotta take care of it and me by the way." His words brought some sneers and whistles from the crowd.

Then, he added, "I hope you didn't think we would just spar without any price. I long learned to not waste time, you see."

"Fair. If I lose, then I will join that business of yours." Skylar nodded, her teammates cursing out loud. By then, she realized that her friendly teammates were nothing more but people that just wanted her for her strength.

"I can't stand that righteous attitude of yours! Our strength skyrocketed, we can do without her, guys." One of the men shouted, leaving Skylar surprised.

Then, a few more added, "I think she doesn't want to stay with us anymore. I mean, who would accept such a bet instantly? Skylar, you should've just told us!" And a new opinion appeared within the circle.

Left stupefied, Skylar just looked at her teammates leaving.

"It seems like you lost before the battle even started. But is joining me really a loss?" Tetsuya raised his chin, a little proud escaping his body through that ego aura.

Skylar just clenched her axe's hilt tigher, "Thanks for appearing here today. Because of you, I learned about my teammates. For that, I thank you." Skylar inhaled deeply.

"Hmm." It seemed like battle still would take place! Indeed, rumors were one of the mercenaries' business cards. She just couldn't let the weapon go and follow Tetsuya, could she?

With her black hair pulled gently by the breeze, Skylar rushed forward with her axe above her shoulder. It seemed like a powerful swing was about to descend on the ground!

And so it did, but to no avail!

Tetsuya first went for the instinct show, dodging all her swings, "Come here!" This made Skylar roar like a beast!

After some time passed, Tetsuya went for the offensive. His wooden sword clashed with each swing, shaking the air around them!

Everyone from the crowd felt like their eyes shook along!

"And now, the last strike." Suddenly calling it out, Tetsuya thrusted his weapon and easily pushed away the axe from Skylar's hand.

Her eyes went wide from such displays of speed and power, then those lowered to look at her empty hand.

By then, Tetsuya was already looking at the siblings, "Wanna join me now?"

Both of them nodded! It was a risk they had to take and because of them, Skylar was already within his business, so they couldn't just leave her alone, could they?

It was the beginning of Rainbow Adventurers!
