Chapter 7 Silver Rank And First Encounter With Parul

After completing their quest, the group returned. They went directly to guild headquarters to receive their new silver-ranked badges.

Seeing the place filled with strong guards and having a grand demeanour, Elandor was once again filled with awe which only further increased his desire to get stronger and take all these things for himself.

The receptionist was surprised when she saw spider queen remains in a bag along with the quest completion document given to David by the village chief.

"Are these people gonna be the youngest people to rank up, just a couple of days back they were rookies. They are a talent", she muttered to herself in a low voice.

She asked them to wait for some minute as she get their new silver badges and soon she went upstairs.

"David, we need to celebrate, we are gonna party all night and drink the tastiest wine", spoke Jasmine.

"Yeah, we got so many fkinn gold coins and silver badge so soon hahaha! Others take months to get a silver badge, and see us in only 3 days we ranked up, we need to order the most costly wine to celebrate and party hard!", spoke Eve in her vixen-like tone.

Seeing the jubilant mood David spoke, "You both are right we need to celebrate this moment as it's our first success as an adventuring party."

Suddenly the hall became silent and they saw the receptionist descending the stairs along with a charming mature lady. Even though Eve had big breasts and great body proportions she lacked the mature charm this lady possessed.

Her jet black hair was reaching the ground like a waterfall, her face was round as the moon.

Her skin was white as snow and with her every step, her body twisted and one could appreciate her natural body curves through her skin's tight clothing.

Seeing her hips swaying from left to right while walking countless men could lose their souls.

She came down and spoke, "Hello young adventurers! ..I'm Parul, the daughter of the guild master. Since he has gone to a nearby town for some urgent business I'm in charge here and hearing about such a brave and strong group, I decided to personally award silver badge to such talented group of people, I hope you guys won't mind", she spoke in her voice which was as sweet like drinking honey.

Seeing her even Elandor took a deep breath, he took full 2 minutes to calm his mind, in his head, only one sentence was repeating, "Danger!Danger!Danger!, another disaster-level beauty!"

The girls felt a strong sense of crisis on seeing her and when they saw David's eyes fixed on her they became vigilant but before they could speak David hurried over to her and spoke, "It's our honour lady Parul, I would love if lady Parul can join us in our celebration at night."

Seeing this Elandor hissed inwards, "The protagonist's halo and luck are too strong, he is openly flirting with another lady but his girls are just standing and allowing him to do so like they became foolish and ignorant at the moment."

…

Suddenly Elandor had a strong flash of enlightenment, he thought to himself why the protagonist is strong? It's because he has a strong family background, loyal girls in the harem and strong allies that support him and lastly a cheat ability to get stronger.

All these things add up to form his absurd luck. He had read many novels in his past life and knew how hard it was for the protagonist to die as he always had a life-saving item or some expert would save him at dying breaths and he will only get stronger while facing these so-called dangers.

Suddenly he had a clear understanding his breathing became faster, he realised as long as he take all these things away from David he can lower his luck and maybe steal away his destiny.

He realised that if he manages to take away all the factors making David's luck like his girls, his family business empire and his future allies like the current guild, his cheat ability to grow strong, he can make his protagonist character collapse and can himself become the main character of this story he was living.

To hide his excited face he turned his face sidewards and he got a big shock. He saw an old man whose body was covered in dark robes hiding near the wall and he threw a piece of paper and then he suddenly vanished in the air like he was never there. Elandor suddenly got scared that such a man was able to enter this highly guarded guild and hid so closely to them at their blind angle near-wall …but what was even more surprising was the piece of paper was thrown at such a precise angle and distance that only David could see it when he turns his face towards the right.

Seeing Parul talking with David he hurriedly went near the wall and put the paper piece in his pockets. His actions were as fast as a thief running away after doing the biggest robbery of his life.

Soon the discussion came to end, Elandor could see David trying to impress Parul with his heroic talks while giving the usual idiotic smile he gave which showed his missing right teeth.

Soon the talk ended and Parul escorted the group out and agreed to come to join them for the party at night as she still had to take care of guild affairs till evening.

She also told them that since they are now promoted to sliver rank then according to guild rules they must take a week-long vacation which is mandatory for all newly promoted adventurers from bronze rank as this will allow them to have a break and have fun before continuing their adventure life full of hardships, it also served as a relief to release stress and avoid depressions.

She said goodbye to the group and then went back.

Before anyone could speak Elandor spoke,

"I would love to join you guys for the celebration but I'm tired a lot and I need to do some pending tasks which are very important since I left them earlier."

How could he waste his time watching these girls drinking and trying to flirt with this little David along with that charming vixen Parul, he was afraid that the visual stimulus will be too much for him after drinking alcohol that he will take one of the girls forcefully to bed and do the deed.

After going through life and death together the group became more accepting of Elandor and agreed that he must have some important tasks and allowed him to be absent from today's celebration.

Suddenly, Aushima had a strange scary glint in her eyes when she looked at Elandor and she also spoke, "I made a lot of mistakes this time, I want to go home and reflect on my mistake, I can't join the celebration this time as I not contributed much to our success and was like a luggage, I will introspect my shortcomings and return stronger after this week's vacation."

Seeing her like that all were taken aback.

Eve and Jasmine who wanted alone time while drinking at the nightclub with David quickly agreed and their expressions told how eager they were to send her away.

David spoke, "I agree you should reflect on yourself so mistakes are not repeated."

But no one realised that Aushima's eyes were focused on Elandor and soon after saying goodbye

Elandor separated from the group and the rest went back to their rented house to relax.

Elandor was happily going his way but unknown to him Aushima has secretly returned after separating and was chasing him from the shadows with a scary cold smile on her face which was getting more wicked with each passing second.
