Chapter 492 Evans Siblings
"Nice, the division should be promoted to two-star next month..." Shye muttered as he strode out of the guild headquarters.
He was headed to Valenzia City Hall to answer the city lord's summons.
He didn't know why he was summoned, however, he was at least sure that it wasn't for something negative.
After all, he just completed the special quest no one has ever been able to complete. Experience new stories on empire
"Hmm... My division is growing faster than I anticipated. I thought it would take us about a month and a half to become a two-star division, but at this rate, we might reach that goal in around three more weeks..." Shye mused.
There were five division tiers with five-star divisions being the highest.
As for two-star divisions, they were nothing but the average ranks of most divisions in Valenzia City.
Even guilds who weren't in the top fifty had multiple two-star divisions.
However, despite being common, it was usually very difficult for one-star divisions to become two-star divisions.
After all, for a division to rank up, it needed a large number of members. To attract these members, the division leader had to be not only charismatic, talented, or renowned, but also wealthy, as they needed to offer enticing benefits to encourage people to join their division.
Hence, upstart divisions, which were led by merely passionate yet mediocre individuals, were mercilessly stuck at the one-star rank.
As a result, the once enthusiastic leaders either became depressed upon realizing they were destined to follow someone else or lost their excitement, slowly turning into lazy adventurers who would never amount to anything.
Thus, the explosive growth of the Flashy Ravens Rising, a division led by a rookie, was truly astonishing.
It even incurred the jealousy of a few division leaders and their deputies.
Unfortunately for them, their options to bully newcomers were limited as Soaring Raven was well aware of such pettiness, hence, he had long solved such problems.
How? Well, he implemented two things.
First, he ensured that higher-ranked adventurers couldn't challenge lower-ranked ones to duels, although the reverse was allowed. If a higher-ranked adventurer attempted to challenge a lower-ranked one, their adventurer license would be suspended for two months.
"Ahh! I remember you now, you saved me back at the gate from being swarmed by citizens when I first arrived at Valenzia!"
"Y-Yes, that's me. So, what brings you here to the city hall?"
"Ahh, the city lord sent me a letter telling me that I should come see him at his office."
"Lord Blas did? I wonder what for? Oh well, none of my business, hahahaha! Not to brag or anything but I kinda know the guards here so if you just show me the letter with the city lord's stamp, I can help you."
"Oh? That would be a big help! Here's the letter."
As Adrian verified the letter, a stern voice sounded from behind the two of them, assaulting Shye's heart with endless waves of nostalgia.
"Big Brother, what are you doing? Didn't you tell me you want your division to break through to the top three? If so, then why are you playing around again?"
"A-Ah...hahahaha...sorry, little bud. My little sister is kind of...let's just say a bit too serious. Just bring this letter to that guard over there and th–"
"Instructor Fienna!"
"Oh? Crowley. What brings you here? It's only been a year, and you're already taller than me? Not bad."
"Instructor! I thought the Adventurer Academy Competition was six months away. What brings you here now?"
"Oh. I guess the deans didn't have the time to inform you, huh? I've already repaid them for saving me in the past. Hence, I returned to adventuring with this doofus."
Hearing the overly familiar conversation between his little sister and the legendary super rookie, Adrian was flabbergasted.
He simply couldn't think of a possible connection between the two.
'Wait, he did call her instructor...'
"Ahh! Fienna! So you suddenly disappeared because you became an instructor at Colzen Academy? No wonder I couldn't find you everywhere! I honestly thought you were already dead, for goodness' sake!"
"Sigh...Why is your damned voice so loud? Calm down, I'll tell you what happened to me later. For now, can you let me talk to my student in peace?"
