Creation System: Reborn As A Fantasy Worldsmith

Chapter 361 Adventurer Test

Chapter 361 Adventurer Test

"Hyst?" Lyrian said, noticing the young man, "Sure, you can join me."

Hyst grinned on hearing this, quickly tailing behind Lyrian.

Before Lyrian opened the door, he questioned, "What were you doing upstairs?" to try and get to know the layout of these Adventurer's buildings a bit more.

"Oh, that?" Hyst nervously laughed, closing his eyes and scratching the back of his head, 'I can't let him know that I was waiting for him here this entire time... gotta come up with an excuse.'

"I had some... business to attend to with some higher-ups in the guild, about the disappearances, you know?" This was the best he could muster in such a short time.

'Huh...' Lyrian was a bit skeptical but asked, "What did they say?"

"Oh..." Hyst paused again, looking to the side for a split second to think. 'Wow... he's really serious about this mission. I didn't think this far.'

"Nothing much, just normal stuff. No new information, ya' know?"

Lyrian didn't reply, simply nodding as he turned toward the door. 'An obvious lie. Again, they hide things from me. Sketchy family...' He said, turning the handle.

As soon as he did, he was met with a fairly large waiting room.

It was bright, as the far side--opposite from the door--was made purely out of big and clear windows.

From these blared the sun's brightness--a large glass dome where the tests were held. It oddly resembled the Hunting License dome from Anaviotis.

The waiting room was a good bit bigger though, with seats to the side.

A single worker was standing next to the entrance to the dome, and he also looked like an adventurer, seeing as how he had some light armor on and a sword by his waist.

Instead of sitting on the seats, half of the people inside pushed against the window, as Lyrian remembered they also did the same in Anaviotis.

The other half sat to the side, nervously awaiting their turn.

Lyrian turned to them, and unbeknownst to him, his slight glance exuded just enough energy--prompting all of the down-lookers to face up at him.

As soon as their eyes met his, they grew wider. The mouths of a few gaped a bit, as eyebrows raised and furrowed.

Without any delay, whispers immediately began to murmur.

Out of nowhere, a voice called out, "Yo! I'll take your test slip." The adventurer standing next to the dome entrance shouted.

"Oh? What the heck..." He muttered to himself on seeing Lyrian.

"Where do I know you?" He asked as a few people near the window turned to look at what he was talking about.

Immediately, they became stunned. One even exclaimed, "Where do you know him!? Rothis, this is why you should look at big events and not live under a damn rock! That's Lyrian Theageld, from the Anaviotis Deployment Exam!"

"Oh... right." The man in his late twenties exclaimed, facing Lyrian with a serious gaze as he was handed the test slip.

"Hey... mind if I get an autograph? My wife will love this." A sly smirk suddenly donned his face, with squinted eyes and blinking brows.

"Uh... sure?" Lyrian exclaimed, unfamiliar with such a question.

It seemed this question was like a crack in the dam because as soon as Rothis asked this, the floodgates broke open and a flurry of people surrounded Lyrian to ask for his autograph as well.

"Can I please have one as well?"

"Hey, me too!"

"Give me one my leg!"

"On my arm!"

Suddenly, a woman ran forward and broke open her buttoned shirt that was covering her chest, "Please, give me one right here!" She exclaimed, flashing the 10-year-old...

"Wh--!? Stop, everyone!" Lyrian abruptly shouted, hushing the entire room, "I'm only giving one to this guy since he asked first. Everyone else, piss off."

He said, looking at everyone one by one as they disappointedly backed off.

Rothis, however, eagerly tore the bottom of Lyrian's test slip off, where there was no writing, and handed it over to him along with a pen.

"You just carry a pen around with you?" Hyst comically said, slightly surprised.

"Uh, no, buddy. I summoned it out of my ass." Rothis exclaimed back sarcastically, as a few people nearby cracked up at his joke.

"Alright..." Hyst unenthusiastically retorted, looking to the side.

Lyrian signed the paper and handed it back to Rothis, as he quickly took it and stored it.

"You're 24th in line. Sorry man, I can't break the rules even if it's for celebrities." Rothis sounded genuinely apologetic.

"No need, I can wait. I'm not a celebrity anyways..." Lyrian said, calmly walking to the window.

Everyone quickly made way as he and Hyst walked a few feet away from the glass and stared inside.

They gazed at Lyrian with awe, seemingly forgetting about the test going on inside.

Inside, Lyrian noticed that a girl was fighting the exact same type of dummy from the Hunting Exam of Anaviotis.

He was thrown off, thinking, 'Are they the same or something?'

It wouldn't be too big of a deal if they were since he had beaten it without much trouble even when he was considerably weaker, but it was odd that Anaviotis would be using something that is also used by normal people.

Soon enough, one by one the testees failed and passed, the line shortening in about an hour total.

By now, the sun was dimming down, and lights of purple and red color were shining from somewhere outside of the dome on all sides.

Lyrian found this to be a little odd but shrugged it off as decoration.

Finally, Rothis exclaimed, "Lyrian Theageld, you're up next." and opened the door for him.

Currently, the entire waiting room was packed to the brim with curious faces. Even Rothis had never seen such a filled waiting room.

Why was this? Well, it was obvious... it was to see Lyrian Theageld take on this challenge, of course.

Be it haters or lovers, all wanted to see his power firsthand. Hyst was amongst the most excited.

As he smiled in excitement, he mused, 'Are you strong enough to actually complete this mission, Theageld?'
