Chapter 22 - 021 The Decided Destination

Chapter 22: 021 The Decided Destination In Lamijion, although Vivian was not the strongest adventurer, she was the captain of the most excellent adventurer team. Moreover, everyone in this adventurer team had received Vivian's care during their newcomer period, growing to become some of Lamijion's premier adventurers thanks to her guidance. Not only that, Vivian, due to her naturally gentle and kind personality, had mentored plenty of newcomers, helping them achieve. Therefore, in Lamijion and even in other towns, Vivian's reputation or popularity was very high. Both gentle and kind, approachable, a guide for so many newcomers, and a beautiful girl to boot, who wore heavy armor to protect her companions and wielded a giant shield—such a person could very well be considered a "goddess" in people's hearts. Riley also had an old relationship with Vivian and trusted her quite a bit. Whenever there were tricky assignments at the adventurer's guild, she recommended Vivian to solve them. When something happened at the guild, Riley frequently consulted with Vivian. Even when a potential newcomer appeared, Riley would directly recommend them to join Vivian's adventurer team for guidance. This time, the situation with the bizarre newcomer wasn't quite the exceptional potential-type yet, but if this person truly had some unique skill or special skill, it would be worth attention. "You know that unique skills and special skills often possess effects superior to ordinary skills. Especially unique skills—some may be useless in combat yet significant in other domains and can even transform one's future, overcoming any disadvantageous conditions to ultimately succeed." Riley grew serious. "Essentially, those who can awaken unique skills might become top figures in various fields—the best example being the two court advisors of the current kingdom." Those two court advisors had very low levels, not even reaching Level 10, and hadn't acquired any combat skills. Yet, their status in the kingdom surpassed many high-level individuals. That's because one possessed a unique skill that drastically increased the success rate of the [Tame] skill, allowing for the mass taming of high-level demons like flying dragons and providing a considerable supply of mounts for the kingdom's knight order, and the other quickly matured any plant species, hugely supporting the kingdom's food security and significantly reducing the growth time of materials for creating magic potions, making the Mitra Kingdom renowned for grains and magic potions. Given this, the kingdom placed very high importance on people with unique skills, and the adventurer's guild also kept track of those who might possess or awaken such skills. In this world, many females chose to become adventurers, but those who were both beautiful and powerful were exceedingly rare. Such individuals, if appearing at the adventurer's guild, would surely become targets for various teams to fight over, eventually causing conflicts and even malice. Understanding this clearly, Vivian intentionally cultivated this adventurer team to protect these female adventurers amid various malicious intents. However, unpleasant incidents had happened even so in the past. As mentioned before, Vivian was kind and friendly to newcomers. Riley also frequently entrusted promising newcomers to Vivian for guidance. Yet those with potential didn't necessarily have humanity. There had been incidents where newcomers joining Vivian's adventurer team developed malicious intents toward the girls in the team and assaulted them. Thus, Vivian hadn't allowed any newcomers to join her adventurer team for a long time, unless they were female. Otherwise, she only offered help as much as she could. This time, Riley had arranged for a male adventurer, leaving Vivian actually a bit hesitant. Of course, Riley wasn't oblivious to this. "If Tielle is around and this newcomer acts recklessly, just like before, let her break his limbs, then I'll revoke his adventurer qualification and expel him from the guild." Riley gave orders without hesitation. "Well... okay." Vivian considered for a moment and finally nodded. Thus, Shane's fate was decided this way.
