Chapter 56 Out of the Guild
Chapter 56 Out of the Guild
After running out of the Guildhall, Jake was now on his way back to the academy. 'Phew, that was a close one. I can't believe I won that fight so easily.' Jake thought as he kept on running back to the academy. It took an hour to come to the town while walking but now he was running so within thirty five minutes, Jake was now in front of the academy's gate.
Scanning his watch, Jake was now heading towards his dorm room. He got to his room and then fell down on his bed due to exhaustion from running for thirty minutes non stop. Actually, he wasn't that tired because he was used to running when completing his daily quest.
His friends were all in the room talking when they saw Jake enter. Jake just decided to rest a bit. After thirty minutes of resting, Jake decided to check the rewards given to him after completing the quests.
<Ding! Quest has been completed.>
<Rewards: +2 stat points in any attributes the user chose.>
Jake now pulled up his status screen to decide where to allocate the stat points.
<Status>
<User: Jake Lucas>
<Level: 14>
<Combat level: Skilled>
<Skill level: Trained>
<XP level: 500/3000>
<HP: 45/45>
<Strength: 49>
<Agility:45>
<Endurance: 52>
<Free stat point: 2>
'Okay, so now where can I allocate these points?' Jake thought as he was quite confused about where to allocate them.
'Hmm, I already have a good number of strength and especially if I were to use strength Surge then I even surpass Jack. That is if he doesn't use Qi and my endurance is quite high, I rarely feel pain and basic weapons don't hurt me again so that leaves me with agility.'
"It's not a bad idea to allocate the stat points into speed, because I noticed you were lacking In speed so I think it's best to allocate the points to agility." Zee said.
'that was what I wanted to do.' Jake thought as he quickly allocated the stat point to his agility.
<Agility: 45>>> 47>
Satisfied with this, Jake now sat up on his bed.
"So where were you?" Peter asked.
"I went to town." Jake replied.
"Hope there was no trouble?" Peter asked.
"No, there was not."
"Okay, that's great." Peter replied. "We were just discussing how busy our schedule will be starting from tomorrow."
"Oh yeah, our homeroom class is gonna change, the combat training teacher is gonna be different and we are finally gonna be taught how to use Qi." Jake said excitedly by the prospect of learning Qi.
"It's not only that," Cindy said. "I even heard about something but am not sure."
"And what's that?" Kate asked.
"That second years will all go beast hunt in an orange coloured portal. We are to hunt intermediate beasts." Cindy said.
"Obviously," Sophia said. "We are gonna do that but it's gonna be at a later time so don't worry. They wouldn't send a bunch of students who do not know how to use Qi to an orange portal planet."
"That's true." Vynn said.
"I can't believe we are in our second year." Jake said. "Oh how time flies."
They all kept silent and then Jake glanced at his watch. "It's just 6pm, do any of you have any idea of what we should do to pass time?"
They all shook their heads before Cindy smiled. "How about we do a little bit of exploration."
"What do you mean?" Kate asked.
"I mean, we are technically second years now so we will be given a little bit more freedom than before so, I propose we explore the nearest town a bit and find something interesting to do."
"Well count me out." Jake said while laying back on his bed.
"Why? What happened?" Kate asked. "You don't wanna come with us?"
"No it's not like that. It's just.."
"Just what?" Peter asked. "C'mon it will be fun."
"I can't." Jake said.
"You just literally came back from town so why can't you go back?" Sophia asked.
"Because, I caused a bit of a mess when I was there earlier today." Jake said.
"What did you do now?" Kate asked, fearing the worst.
Jake then sighed and stood upright from his bed then he recounted everything that happened when he went to town from bidding for the necklace to trying to become a traveller and then crossing Scar's gang and beating them up.
"Oh boy. This is quite bad." Jack said.
"What do you mean?" Jake asked.
"You beat up members from the Iron Fist Guild? That is a problem." Jack said.
"How's that a problem?" Kate asked.

"Because the Iron Fist Guild, are the third to strongest independent Guild in the world. Aside from the big three, the academy, the independent Guilds are the next big thing." Jack explained.
"Well luckily, it is only low level members you beat up and not someone high up otherwise you might be in big trouble." Sophia said and then Peter started laughing out loud that made all heads turn to him.
"I am so sorry, it's just amazing and funny at the same time." Peter said still laughing.
"What's funny?" Sophia asked with a raised brow.
"No seriously, are we just going to believe that Jake beat up members from the Iron Fist Guild without even getting a scratch on him? I mean, even though they are low level members, they are still strong."
"Well I don't think Jake is lying, why will he even lie In the first place?" Kate asked.
"I'm not lying and you can choose to believe it or not but if you guys are going to town, then count me out maybe next time." Jake said as he went back to his bed to sleep.
"Good going Peter." Kate said. "Anyway I'm also going to sleep."
"It's not my fault that Jake's story is quite unbelievable." Peter shrugged. "Anyway, I'm off to the VR room, I haven't been in the game for a while."
"Mind if I tag along?" Vynn asked.
"Sure why not." Peter said as he and Vynn headed out of the room for the VR gaming room. Meanwhile Sophia, Jack and Cindy all went their own separate way to do their own thing.
*************************
In an unknown building a little farther from town, some people were in a dimly lit room while someone was sitting on the chair with some sort of cigarette.
"So you are saying, a Kid beat you guys up that's why you couldn't deliver." The man said as he took a puff calmly from his cigarette.
"Yes boss." Scar said while still down on his knees.
The man angrily kicked the table in front of him that went flying towards a wall and the table broke in pieces. "And you aren't ashamed of yourself? A Kid beat you and your men and you come down here and tell me that without doing anything."
"I'm sorry I failed you boss." Scar said with his head down.
"No no no. You didn't fail me, you failed yourself. You're a failure and our Guild do not accept failures so here is my verdict."
The man said, taking another puff of his cigarette. "You are out of the Guild, no argument or pleading. Now get the hell out of here before I do something terrible to you."
"Yes boss." Scar said while walking out of the room and out of the building. 'I promise, I will find you kid and I will kill you. If I don't do that, then my name isn't Scar.'
