"Big Brother.." George started.
"Hm?" Joel hummed.
"You see I'm thinking of being an adventurer like you"
"Why?" the couple questioned their little brother.
"Georgey, darling, being an Adventurer is very dangerous." Lizzie persuaded. He knows how much risk her husband is taking everytime he goes out, that's why he urge him to make a small business instead.
Adventurers are willing to die for either adventure or the money, the higher the risk, the higher the pay. People who needs money urgently tries to wrestle with fate but only the strong one survive. He doesn't want his baby brother risk his life for nothing.
"I will be fine, I will not take a high risk job, i can also team with people, it's just it's pretty boring sitting in the guild all day"
But even with persuasion Joel didn't allow George to join the guild making George angry enough to throw a tantrum.
Joel didn't like being an adventurer, if it wasn't for his needs of money those days, he will not be one. After making a money, he stopped and started a chicken farm with a small in near the edge of the purple forest, due to the increasing amount of lost adventurers the place prosper and became a village and Lizzie then built the guild for wandering Adventurers.
Lizzie sighed at the scene, Her husband is very protective over the kid, seeing him almost die years ago is still a scar on the pair.
"Just let him cool down, okay?"
"But babe.." Lizzie hugs his husband trying to calm his emotions down or he'll start another chicken murder spree.
Near the purple forest, George sat down at his favorite rock, this is where he was found by Joel and Lizzie, even after years of running away, the scar of his past hunts him, he is too near to the capital, he doesn't know when they will appear to destroy his life...again.
he needs to not stay in one place so the chance of finding him will lower but he doesn't want to leave Joel, Lizzie and the children. he loves them too much. that's why he wants to be an adventurer, he can do a task for few days come back, then go again. no permanent address means lower chance of them finding him.
they give him the love he never receive from his relatives.
"You know Techno, i can be the leader if you don't want to." a shrill voice said
"Yeah, You do that and get us all fucking killed" another shrill voice shouted.
"no need to shout kid" a rather calmed voice replied, their voice coming from around the corner making George turn around.
'The purple forest!' he thought. that where he saw a group of Five people coming out of the forest.
Purple forest is one of the four known forest in their continent, the purple forest and Nether Forest are the most famous, known for being dense and dangerous. Wild Animals and Magic creatures lurks deep inside the forest. The two forest is almost half the continent large, a lot of places is still untouched by humans.
he tries to hide but was seen by one of the five strangers,
One of them has Pink hair, a small crown like earring on his right ear. he wears a white dress shirt and black pants above it is a red cape with white shiny fur in the neck line and hands, he looks like a nobility.
Next to him is a man wearing a green [japnese shirt and pants, japanese sandals] and a green with white stripe hat, he has blond hair and a nice smile. talking to him is a brown haired tall younger man with light skin, he seems like he made a joke that made the older man laughed but his expression didn't change.
Among them is the two men who's arguing with loud shrill voice
one of them is wearing light blue hood, the last one is a tall blond kid who seems too young to be an adventurer
"Oh! A local!" the nice blond haired man shouted running to George's direction.
"H-hello!" George replied.
"We are adventurers, We are kind of lost" He smiled at George, seeing the young man take a step back, he stopped in place and wave at the young man to signal he's not dangerous.
"Can you tell us where is this?"
"Jeremyville." seeing the young man relaxed the older blond sigh in relief.
"Are there any guilds here we can report to?"
"Oh! yes, i can escort you there if you want to!"
"That would be aweso—""no need"
"Tommy!"
"What?! I'm the leader, i get the final say!"
"Who said you're the leader? I'm stronger than you, i should be the leader!" the one in the blue hoodie shouted.
"Skeppy!"
"Don't mind those two, just leave them here" a low voice said, he sound monotonous but you can still feel the hint of anger laced in his voice
"Techno!" techno just rolled his eyes at the two shouting kids behind him totally ignoring them, he didn't know how people deals with this two because since day 1 he just want to feed them both to the monsters they encounter.
"Hello, I am Technoblade escorting us would be a great idea, we can just leave those two idiots here" The pink haired man, Technoblade said. he has a small smile on his face making george also release a smile.
"this is Phil and this is Tubbo" he pointed at the man in green laughing his heart out behind him, then the man with brown hair. "Those two idiots are Tommy and Skeppy."
"I'm not an idiot!" the two shouted in unison making the pink haired man, Techno, rolled his eyes at them, Ignore their incessant shouting and walk away.
With Techno's support on leaving the two men arguing they all left to go to town, with two grumbling voices behind them.
While walking Tubbo and Philza as they introduce themselves said they're called started telling him about some of their adventures, killing dragons and undeads, bandits and pirates. Though everything ends up with Techno with most damage and kills. Techno stares at the younger looking man's eyes as they sparkle every time they tell him a story about killing stuff. he found the kid funny.
George sometimes steals some looks at the cold pink haired man, while the said man gave him a small smile making his face burn.
"This is it." George said while opening the door.
"George!" George turn around to see Joel with pale face running to him
"Where were you?! Do you know how worried i am?!" George was striken with guilt seeing his brother pale with worry.
"I'm sorry" he whispered, Joel hugs him telling him it's alright in low voice.
After a minute Joel felt a group of eyes staring at him, he saw a group of people behind George, George remembered why he returned turn to his brother.
"Oh! Big brother, this is Technoblade and his team, he would like to talk to Lizzie."
"A talk?" Lizzie came down from the second floor holding a small pile of papers. "come upstairs"
George leads the five people upstairs while Joel handles the affairs downstairs.
the seven of them arrived at a medium size room, a small sofa and two armchair, Techno sat on one of the armchair and Tubbo takes the other, Skeppy, Phil and Tommy sat at the sofa with Phil in the middle to prevent unnecessary arguments.
George didn't know what they talked about as he goes downstairs.
