Flashy Adventurer System : Show Off to Get Stronger!

Chapter 220: The Heroic Convoy’s Return

Before the Adventurer Academy Competition concluded, Shye, Shirley, and Maia, already talked about their future plans.

Long story short, they decided to join the same guild, though Shirley and Maia planned to enter a different branch from Shye's.

The two of them didn't want to keep depending on Shye so even though it was a hard decision for them to be temporarily apart, it was for the best.

Shye knew that he had to respect their wishes, hence, albeit reluctant, he ultimately agreed.

Both his little sister and his girlfriend were strong so they should be able to pass the Raven's Blade Adventurer Guild admission exam.

The tokens he requested from Soaring Raven were merely intended to ensure that the branch guild master would give them a bit more attention.

Moreover, Maia would probably be directly recruited in two years so Shye wasn't worried about her making it into the guild.

In fact, Soaring Raven would probably be begging her to join in the future.

She was absurdly way more naturally talented than Shye after all.

After voicing out his thoughts, Shye gave Soaring Raven a deep look—hoping that he would agree.

"Deal, here."

Shockingly—or not really, the guild master instantly agreed. Two seeded tokens for a super prospect was an absurdly small price to pay.

Initially, he thought Shye would ask for a [Legendary] skill or something, and he was already pondering how to deal with the situation.

He was willing to give Shye such a skill but not in front of others as the guild only had two of those and the adamantite-ranked adventurers of the guild had been eyeing it like crazy.

Luckily for him, Shye's request didn't require him to think much.

Extending his hand out to receive the seeded tokens, Shye gave Soaring Raven a contented smile.

"Thank you for indulging my requests, guild master. I, Shye Crowley, swear allegiance to Raven's Blade."

Somehow, even the deans fell asleep, and upon waking up, Soaring Raven was nowhere to be found.

As experienced adventurers, the deans knew that the guild master was likely very busy and had already returned to his guild, hence, they continued on their journey towards Colzen City.

The majestic white horses kicked up clouds of dust as the Colzen convoy resumed their glorious march back home.

Shockingly, they encountered another group of assassins, however, the organizer of the assassination squad seemed to be stupid compared to the first one, sending only three diamond-ranked adventurers allowing the deans and the instructors to easily protect their students.

Shye and the others didn't even have to fight as Instructor Fienna showed everyone her true strength, valiantly holding her ground against a diamond-ranked adventurer which allowed the other instructors to finish the assailants off.

However, despite the significant scare caused by the assassinations, it proved to be a valuable life lesson for the students.

Now, they know that life isn't all rainbows and butterflies.

Once they graduate from the academy, they have to be smart in how they handle things lest they offend someone they shouldn't.

They're not all promising rookies after all.

Some of them just want to live a normal life—accept fairly safe quests, save up silver coins, and provide for their future families.

The students pondered about their futures as the convoy gradually progressed towards their home city.

Two weeks later, the familiar city walls emerged from the horizon.

To their pleasant surprise, the citizens of Colzen City—both adventurers and normal people—were waiting at the city gates, eagerly waiting for their heroes to return.

Due to Colzen's victory at the Adventurer Academy Competition, Colzen City will likely prosper along with Colzen Academy, hence, the citizens wanted to warmly welcome them as a small token of gratitude.

Naturally, the Colzen convoy, especially the deans and the representatives, felt their heartstrings tingle as chants of "Colzen Academy" continuously reverberated as they entered the city.

Shortly after, the citizens energetically escorted them back to the academy gates, seemingly having endless enthusiasm.

They knew returning as heroes would feel good, however, they didn't expect it to feel THIS good.
