After returning to the guild...
There was no line at the desk and they walked towards the clerk. She smiled.
"Hello, have you completed the quest."
"Yeah, but we can across a nest of goblins with at least a hundred or more," Seiya said as he emptied the pile of dead goblins on the floor. The people who were inside gasped at the sight.
"Wait, that means that the quest wasn't an E-rank quest but a B-rank quest. Sir, why didn't you have yourself evaluated yet. You're a lot stronger than E and you are able to use interdimensional storage," she shouted.
"Kyouya didn't tell me that I needed to at the time," Seiya said.
"You were so worried about Giyuu, so I didn't say anything. Also, Seiya is the Hero the kingdom summoned into this world. So he definitely needs to be evaluated, both magic and physical strength wise," Kyouya said.
"Please follow me, I will guide you to the evaluation room. It's where people with lower ranks can raise their ranks even without quest. The higher the rank you have the greater risk and reward," She said.
They followed her to the back of the guild and she opened the door.
"Please proceed through here, there will be someone to assist you," she said before returning.
They walked inside and saw there was a man standing there. He was a S-rank adventurer but he was weaker then Kyouya.
"Yo, who's this you brought the prince and a beauty," he asked.
Seiya ignored his statement about his looks. He looked unamused.
"My name is Hiroshima Seiya."
"Hmm, I'm Shinryu Iki. I'm an S-rank adventurer, I'm also the guild leader. So she brought you here to be evaluated which means you must be strong."
Iki had long orange hair and two different color eyes. One was gold and the other blue. He was muscular as well.
"He's pretty even with me," Kyouya said.
"Huh, the great Kyouya said that someone's even in strength?"
"Yeah."
"First before he fights me, I want to see what his attributes are."
He took some crystals out of his pocket. He gave them to Seiya. There were 10 crystals with different colors.
"Each crystal color is for each attribute. Red is for berserker magic, brown for earth magic, purple for gravity magic, white for holy magic, black for dark magic, gold for lightning magic, green for wind magic, dark blue for water magic, light pink for time magic ,and clear for space magic," Iki said.
"Why so many crystals," Seiya thought.
"Alright each crystal, lay them on the ground around and concentrate you mana."
Seiya put the crystals in a circle around him.
"The way you determine the attribute is how high the crystals float and how much they glow. The glowing indicates you have the attribute, but how high it floats is how strong the attribute is."
Seiya began concentrating his mana. All of the crystals lit up and floated to the roof of the building. It was trying to go higher but it couldn't because of the roof.
"Seiya, release your mana."
The crystals fell to the ground. Kyouya and Iki look surprised.
"You can use all of the attributes, that's never been heard of. You don't seem to have a weak attribute either," Iki shouted.
Seiya looked confused. Iki coughed a bit and regain his composure.
"Well, are you able to use skill magic as well? It's a personal magic, that others rarely would have."
"Does touching a book and gaining the contents count," Seiya asked.
"Yeah, but seriously, you can't just learn magic from books alone, you need someone to show you."
"Maybe you should take classes with Miyano-chan," Kyouya asked.
"Oh Miyano is a great teacher, plus she's an S-rank grand Magician. Grand Magician are very rare due to people unable to surpass their limits."
"I'll ask her when I get back."
"Just be careful, she's a bit of a money grubber towards adults," Iki said with a sigh.
Iki grabbed an orb from the corner of the room. He poured magic in it and it lit a bright light.
"Already hold this and pour some magic in. If it lights brightly you posses a large pool of mana, while dim is a small amount. Mana pools are able to grow with time though, so don't worry if it's small."
He gave it to Seiya. Seiya poured mana in and a blinding bright light appeared before shattering the glass ball.
"Well good to know the hero isn't weak," Kyouya thought.
"I'm sorry, how much was the glass ball?," Seiya asked.
"How much magic did you put into it?"
"A small amount?"
"Which means you shattered it with a small amount of mana, you mana pool must be close to infinite?"
"Close to infinite."
"You'll never know until you experience mana exhaustion."
"Mana exhaustion?"
"Yeah."
Suddenly someone opened the door to the room.
"Guild master, there's been spotting of a S-rank Withern dragon heading our way," the man shouted.
"S-rank Withern dragon, alright so do you want to test out your magic," Iki asked Seiya.
"No, goblins are totally different from dragons, I'll handle it," Kyouya said.
"No, you're not going by yourself, I'm not weak," Seiya shouted.
Kyouya plucked him in the forehead.
"Huh?"
"Huh, what the hell do you mean, huh? A dragon is different from people, you have no experience fighting dragons."
"But."
"Don't be reckless, or I'll kiss you."
"I rather take the kiss then let you go off alone," Seiya said with a serious look.
"We'll solve this, Seiya, shoot off a lightning attack against that wall," Iki asked.
"Are you trying to damage the guild," Seiya asked.
"Do it, if it's too weak to break the wall, it's too weak to fight the dragon."
Seiya sighed as lightning appeared around him. He held his hand up and a huge lightning hit the wall. The wall and the wall behind it crumbled to pieces.
"Fine, you can come, just don't do anything reckless," Kyouya said with a worried expression.
"Are you really that worried about me?"
Kyouya hugged Seiya.
"Of course I am, I don't want to lose another person," Kyouya said.
"Did you lose someone?"
Kyouya let go.
"Yeah, a rookie knight with a good amount of potential. He wasn't ready for the mission, but he charged in ignoring orders and was killed instantly by the monster we were fighting. It happened just before you arrived," Kyouya said.
"It must be hard to be the captain of the royal knights and the prince. Not only are you losing  potential knights but citizens of your kingdom," Seiya said.
"That's why I want you to be safe. You have to get stronger yes, but you should concentrate on learning more magic control. Your mana is quite potent and you can either hurt yourself or others in the range of your magic," Kyouya said.
"Honestly can you be like this more often, you're much better like this? You actually seem like a reliable captain, instead of a pervert," Seiya said.
"I can try, but it's hard around you. Since I fell in love  with you at first sight."
