Opening a fantasy anime world with the style of Mount & Blade

Page 17

Other adventurers formed long queues at the counters, handling various transactions.

When Liu Tianyu entered, or rather, when the well-dressed and imposing Nord Royal Guards entered, the previously noisy Adventurers' Guild instantly fell silent.

"Hey, who are those people? They look really strong. Are they adventurers too?"

"If he's an adventurer, how strong must he be? Bronze or Silver? After that person glanced at me, I felt like I almost stopped breathing."

"Quick, look at that giant axe behind them! Wow, I really don't know if I can even swing it."

After a short period of quiet, the Adventurers' Guild returned to its initial clamor, only this time the volume was several orders of magnitude lower, and the topic of discussion had all shifted to the Nord Royal Guards.

"Ah, after so long, I'm finally seeing faces that aren't human: dwarves, goblins, forest people, miners... It really is the Adventurers' Guild, a true melting pot."

After entering the Adventurers' Guild, Liu Tianyu looked around at the adventurers whispering among themselves. Seeing the races among them that did not look like humans, Liu Tianyu felt a surge of pleasure. This was more like it; this was how Western fantasy should be presented.

The sight of those non-human intelligent races gathered together was particularly eye-opening for Liu Tianyu.

Seeing these inhuman races off-screen is completely different from seeing them in real life!

Just like seeing Jack Ma on screen and meeting Jack Ma in real life are definitely two different things!

"Um, I'm not sure if I should remind you, but it seems you cut in line!"

Liu Tianyu looked around the Adventurers' Guild without stopping, and soon arrived at the counter.

As soon as he reached the counter, he was reminded by a gentle female voice.

"Ok?"

Upon hearing the woman's voice, Liu Tianyu snapped out of his daze.

The adventurers and clients who had been queuing at the wooden counter had long since disappeared, as the Nord Royal Guards who had been protecting him had already moved far away.

In other words, the people standing at the counter now are either Liu Tianyu or the Nord Royal Guards.

Therefore, Liu Tianyu quickly turned his gaze away from his surroundings and took in the scene before him.

Before me was a wooden counter, and behind it were several saleswomen dressed in uniform light purple business attire, with white undershirts and black skirts. Beneath the black skirts were long, slender legs encased in black stockings and black high heels.

It must be said that these sales clerks are all quite good-looking, averaging over 80 points.

The saleswoman who just reminded Liu Tianyu was definitely the most beautiful among these saleswomen.

Her long, light blonde hair was piled high in a bun and tied into a cute ponytail, and her figure was curvaceous.

Although the waves on her chest weren't exaggerated, they were still quite undulating, roughly the size of a pair of melons (D), to the point that one hand definitely couldn't grasp them.

In Liu Tianyu's mind, she was a stunning beauty who deserved a score of 91. If her chest were a little more voluptuous, adding another 3 points wouldn't be a problem.

There was no way around it; his appetite had been spoiled after Lucy.

"Sir, don't you think your gaze is a bit too impolite?"

The blonde ponytail saleswoman, who was being watched by Liu Tianyu, spoke again, her expression quite calm.

This contrasted sharply with her colleagues who were trembling with fear because of the aura of the Nord Royal Guards.

"Haha, sorry, it's my first time at the Adventurers' Guild, so I'm a bit curious. Please forgive me."

However, as for cutting in line, I don't think that's even an issue. What do you all think?

Liu Tianyu laughed to ease the awkwardness after the gold-haired saleswoman's comment, and then asked the crowd behind him who had automatically moved away.

Those humans and other races whose gazes were swept over by Liu Tianyu nodded knowingly after glancing at the Nord Royal Guards who were guarding Liu Tianyu like door gods.

"Alright, it seems I didn't cut in line. So, ladies at the counter, may I accept your request?"

Liu Tianyu shrugged and then looked at the saleswoman with the golden ponytail.

"Okay, please tell me what you're asking for, the required documents, and your payment."

The saleswoman with the blonde ponytail sighed and then spoke in a businesslike tone.

"The task is simple: eliminate goblins. As for the required documents, there aren't any! And the reward will depend on the circumstances."

Seeing the saleswoman with the golden ponytail acting so businesslike, Liu Tianyu suddenly felt like teasing her.

"Sir, this won't do. Without proper documentation and a clear description of the payment, the Adventurers' Guild will not accept it!"

The saleswoman with the golden ponytail remained calm and spoke gently, but upon closer inspection, her expression had become somewhat stammering.

In her mind, she probably already equated Liu Tianyu with troublemakers.

Right now, she's either cursing Liu Tianyu out in her mind, or she's probably thinking about finding someone to kick this troublemaker out.

Chapter Twenty-Four: Goblin Slayer

"This is my family crest, it should be more than enough to replace the document. As for the reward, it's uncertain, because it depends on how many adventurers come. Then I can go to Count Axel to get reimbursed."

With the honor of our two noble families as our guarantee, I'm sure the Adventurers' Guild won't shirk its responsibilities for this mission.

Seeing that the blonde ponytail saleswoman in front of him seemed to be getting angry, Liu Tianyu gave up his teasing and took out the black phoenix badge he was wearing around his neck and handed it to her.

"What is this? Please wait a moment, sir."

Looking at the black phoenix badge that Liu Tianyu handed over, the saleswoman with the gold ponytail carefully stroked it for a while, and then said something to her colleague next to her.

My colleague nodded quickly, then took a thick book from the counter and handed it to the blonde-haired saleswoman.

After receiving the book, she quickly flipped to the table of contents, and after finding what she wanted, she quickly turned to the next 200 pages.

"Ah! Found him! The Black Phoenix Crest, the Lord of Stormwind Town, a young man who hasn't been an adult for long, Liu Tianyu..."

After carefully searching and finding out the details, the saleswoman with the golden ponytail looked at Liu Tianyu with a completely different expression.

"The Adventurers' Guild welcomes you, Viscount Storm!"

After the saleswoman with the golden ponytail finished speaking, she bowed deeply to Liu Tianyu.

"What? Viscount Storm? Really? A nobleman has come to the Adventurers' Guild in person?"

"How could this be fake? Impersonating a nobleman is a serious crime in the kingdom, and look at those people, they must be his guards. No wonder they are so fierce."

"Damn, thank goodness I didn't get carried away with my temper just now, otherwise attacking a nobleman would be a serious crime!"

Upon hearing the words of the saleswoman with the golden ponytail, everyone in the Adventurers' Guild erupted in excitement.

They looked at Liu Tianyu standing in front of the counter, their initial indignation turning into disbelief.

"Well, now that my identity has been confirmed, may my request be processed, beautiful lady?"

A sunny smile appeared on Liu Tianyu's slightly immature yet exceptionally heroic face, and his words were as refreshing as a spring breeze.

Seeing the sunny smile on his slightly immature face, the blonde ponytail saleswoman, who had initially been somewhat dissatisfied with Liu Tianyu, lost all her resentment and simply assumed he was an inexperienced young nobleman, which explained his initial domineering attitude.

After calming herself down, the saleswoman with the blonde ponytail regained her professional smile and said:

"That's no problem at all, but please fill out this authorization form completely."

Seeing the dissatisfaction on the gold-haired saleswoman's face vanish and her smile return, Liu Tianyu felt a surge of joy.

Alas! Everyone hates feudalism, and everyone hates that they are not a feudal lord!

Liu Tianyu used to have some doubts, but now that he has become a feudal lord, he knows just how great it is to be a feudal lord!

Liu Tianyu took the paper and pen from the saleswoman with the golden ponytail, said nothing, and began to write.

"Eh……"

Seeing that Liu Tianyu had actually started writing on his own, the gold-haired saleswoman was about to say that it should be the saleswomen who wrote it, not the client.

But now that Liu Tianyu had already written down his thoughts, she quickly retracted what she was about to say to avoid being accused of deceiving the nobles.

However, judging from his seemingly obedient and compliant demeanor, he may not be inherently bad; he simply lacks common sense as a nobleman.

"All right!"

Soon, Liu Tianyu put down his quill and handed the document filled with the instructions to the gold-haired clerk at the counter.

"Ah! Okay, let me see. The mission is to eliminate all the goblins that are entrenched in the Stormy Plains."

Adventurers must be Jade level or higher. There are no restrictions on individuals or teams, nor on the number of participants, but they must first arrive in Stormwind Territory and have several Stormwind Territory soldiers accompany them as witnesses.

The reward for destroying a goblin nest is 68 Supreme Gold Coins?!

Are you sure? The fee for this commission is almost as high as that for a Class A commission!

After receiving the commission documents, the blonde-haired saleswoman initially thought nothing of it, but the more she looked at them, the more alarmed she became, especially regarding the reward. She had been a saleswoman for several years and had never seen such a generous reward for eliminating goblins.

Moreover, this is only the reward for destroying one goblin nest. Who knows how many goblin nests there are in Storm Steppe? Isn't this Viscount Storm afraid of emptying his own coffers?

Oh no, it seems he's not the one paying the fee, but would Count Axel agree to pay that much?

"Rest assured, rest assured, I guarantee with the reputation of the Black Phoenix family that this commission is absolutely genuine! Any adventurer whose adventurer level reaches Jade or above is welcome to participate!"

In response to the question posed by the gold-haired saleswoman, Liu Tianyu turned around and addressed the adventurers behind him in a bold and loud manner.

"pat..."

Upon hearing his words, the entire room fell silent. After a long while, an adventurer accidentally dropped the large wine glass he was holding to the ground.

As if a switch had been flipped, the entire Adventurers' Guild erupted in excitement.

"Oh oh oh! Long live Viscount Storm!"

"Quickly, quick, clerk, hurry up and post the request on the notice board!"

"Damn it, my sword is itching for a fight! This is practically handing me money and contribution points! Viscount Black Phoenix is ​​such a good guy!"

The mid-level adventurers who had reached Jade rank or higher were incredibly excited, urging the counter staff one after another to post the quests quickly.

Meanwhile, the new adventurers whose adventurer level was below Jade were all kicking themselves, regretting that they had missed out on a windfall because their level was too low.

Some disgruntled new adventurers stared at Liu Tianyu standing in front of the counter, seemingly hoping he would cancel their adventurer rank.

But when their eyes fell on the Nord Royal Guards standing beside Liu Tianyu, they quickly bury their heads in the sand.

"Okay, okay, please don't get excited. We will make copies of the authorization right away and then post them on the bulletin board."

"Your Excellency, could you please have your guards maintain order? Everyone's so agitated; I'm worried things might get out of hand."

Seeing the adventurers acting like they were on steroids, the golden-haired counter lady tried to calm them down while quietly making a request to Liu Tianyu.

"Ah! No problem, beautiful lady, may I ask your name?"

Liu Tianyu nodded, then suddenly asked her a question that caught her off guard.

“My name is Angelie.”

After she became a counter clerk, she was used to being called "counter clerk" according to the kingdom's custom. Now, when she was suddenly asked her name, she had to think for a moment before she could answer Liu Tianyu.

"A very lovely name, it suits you very well, Miss Angelie."

Alright everyone, please be quiet! The ladies at the counter need some time to make copies, so please don't get too agitated and cause trouble!

If my guards find out and throw you out of the Adventurers' Guild, you'll lose your eligibility to accept any quests!

Upon hearing the words of the sucker—or rather, the God of Wealth—everyone immediately snapped out of their excited state and returned to the initial noisy atmosphere, except that everyone's eyes were fixed on the task bar.

"Om-"

Just then, the doors of the Adventurers' Guild opened again from the outside, and a person walked in.

The person was wearing a riveted suit of armor secured with iron blocks, with chainmail overlaying it and what appeared to be leather armor underneath.

He wore a closed-off giant helmet, fur shoulder guards, a set of fitted leather pants with riveted iron blocks, and iron boots.

In his left hand was a very small, round iron shield that couldn't even cover half of his body. At his waist hung a medium-length iron sword, and he also carried several daggers.

Overall, his equipment looked dirty and tattered, appearing both ordinary and conspicuous.

As Liu Tianyu watched the man walk in through the gate, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately recognized him as Goblin Slayer!

Chapter Twenty-Five: A Grand Plan to Kill Four Birds with One Stone (Two Chapters Combined into One) (Happy Lunar New Year's Eve, brothers!)

After Goblin Slayer opened the door and walked in, the surrounding adventurers couldn't help but focus their attention on him again.

There's no way around it; a guy who wraps himself up completely, wears tattered clothes, and doesn't even show his face will always attract attention in public.

"Hey, hey, hey, that guy looks like that weirdo who only kills goblins!"

"Ah! I know, Goblin Slayer, the adventurer who claims to have reached Silver rank by only accepting goblin requests."
