After that I've met the king blah blah blah demon king blah god owes him blah

Skipping all those boring parts I've been freed in the capital, near the castle and as soon as I saw the sun I knew what I had to do: Guild.

If you've ever been teleported to another world you know the guild will accesparkles  you with open arms, how do I know? Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, boom! Also the 25 gold coins will only last me some time in the capital as it's a place that a lot of people visit

After walking aimlessly in the capital I've decide to ask someone... Because it's been half an hour (I think) and I've yet to see any guild

"Excuse me" I ask a lady walking towards the market "do you know where is the guild? "I ask her while doing puppy eyes

---------------------------------------------------------

You've learned {Puppy Eyes} Level 1

---------------------------------------------------------

Turning to me her expression changes and she looks sad "it's that way, my condolences..." She explains before starting to walk again but faster, strange lady.

Moving that way I feel lost again so I ask another person, this time I'll ask a guard that's on patrol "excuse me" I say again "is the guild this way?" I ask for the second time hoping for a more consistent answer

"My condolences, it's that way" he said while pointing at another street connected to this one, after that he said he had to continue his job and started to walk away, there are strange people in this place.

Continuing my journey I finally see a red building or better, two red buildings attached to each other. Seeing a party go inside one of the two red buildings I guess it's that one and head in

Total chaos, people shouting and making a crowd around some people which I guess by the sounds of swords clashing are fighting, why.

Heading to the counter which luckily still has a person inside I try to ask if I can register but before I can say anything she interrupts me "wrong building" she says with a sigh

"Are you sure? Isn't this the guild?" I ask, of course if it wouldn't be the guild why are so many adventurers just chilling around tables and some even fighting? Why are even some fighting?

"This is the guild but the oрпханаге is the other building, wait here a second" before I can say to stop she opens the door behind her, well hidden. And walks in... Well hello to you too...

After some minutes the front door of the guild opens up and a middle aged woman runs in, she's got blonde hair, adventurer clothes, a sword with a really slim blade and a serious look on her face. "Identify" I whisper while she notices me and her right eye sparkles ouch.

Do you know the pain of your eye being poked while open? Strangely I felt that now on my right eye, with my left eye tough I've noticed that she also closer her right eye like me, did she also feel it?

Approaching me she waves her right hand "are you the Oрпхан?" She asks while trying to hide a smile, what is she asking me? I'm the prophet of Ahion not an answer machine

"Sorry but this is a big misunderstanding... I just want to register in the guild" I say, I feel like she didn't understand some of my words as the look on her face changes to the 'what?'

"How old are you?" She asks, oh is this how we're going to put it grandma? I'm 8! Or 5? I'm both in a way or another... For now I'll be 5 though

"Does age really matter?" "Yes." Wow chill you were ready for that question, anyway I need to convince her someway or another... Maybe a fight?

"I'm not a normal kid, can't you just make an exception?" I ask before seeing a smirk on her face, oh it's on. I know it's on

"If you can touch me in anyway or throw something or in any way make something touch me then I'll think about it" She answers, she fell for it. I came prepared!

---------------------------------------------------------

Oh now it's on lady untouchable "I hope you're ready" I say "inventory" I whisper as she gets in a battle pose

Out of the inventory I take a bucket that I've buyed beforehand and also take out my staff, some around the tables that were only laughing before are now gasping in surprise of what I just did

"Oh great Ahion as need call I ask to you for water, water filler" I can't see the reactions of the guild members because of the words appearing around me but some start to gossip and one gets out of the guild running, is chanting really this uncommon?

Putting my staff away she looks at me weirdly, she was now curious instead of cocky, well now that I've got a water bucket victory's mine! As I start to run towards her with the bucket she gets into position again, reassuming her serious look in the face

"Take this!" I yell as I throw the water against her, bet won. While she gets distracted by the water I drop the bucket and jump towards her, managing to touch her shoes.

[Level up!] Is the last thing I hear before chaos, the whole guild is in uproar, people screaming, laughing, drinking and other things while she has this face which screams 'what just happened?'

In the mean time I'm looking at my stats, I've gained a new level! And {Water Filler} is almost ready to level up

The silence didn't return until the door opened again, this time showing itself was another woman of her age. That's when everyone shut up and timidly sat back down trying to not stand out

"G-guild master!" The secretary managed to say while bowing down, the bet lady instead slowly turned around and did a little wave with her soaked of water excuse of a hand

We didn't need any word but the guild master still said "Office and explanation, now." The lady with a suppressed smile started to walk in another door which may be the way to the office, it's a big building.

Instead I've retrieved the bucket while feeling the sense of someone ready to stab me, 'ok I'm going!' I think after putting the bucket in the inventory and running to the door
