<h4>Chapter 524 Gold-Ranked Adventurer</h4>
A tall building stood proudly in a bustling street in Amaterasu.
Its exterior looked majestic and imposing, with intricate carvings and towering columns, with people swarming inside and out of the building.
At the top of the door, a sign that read ''Gold Adventurer Guild'' greeted everyone who entered.
It wasn''t only yers that visited the guild, but also NPCs with desires to be rich and powerful entered the new guild to get quests.
At that moment, a carriage rolled down the street and came to a stop near the guild building.
After the door swung open, a handsome, purple-eyed man stepped out, instantly catching every pedestrian''s attention with his otherworldly presence.
After having his short date with Be, he took her back to Immortal Dojo, gave the new instructions to Tiger Erwin and the new, modified versions of his Immortal Style.
Then, he changed clothes into a simple white robe with intricate gold embroidery and a pair of crimson swords dangling from his waistline.
He looked very mighty and handsome, like a powerful swordmaster ready to conquer the world.
''This is the Gold Adventurer''s Guild…'' Ambrose looked at the sign and then stepped through the entrance into the bustling hall filled with eager adventurers.
There were tables set up for registration and arge bulletin board covered in job postings and quest requests.
Also, dozens of tables were filled with adventurers of all shapes and sizes, eagerly discussing their next adventure.
They were drinking and eating whileughing with their party members. It was very apparent that everyone was in high spirits and ready for a new quest.
However, as soon as Ambrose stepped through the entrance, he felt like the atmosphere in the guild changed as many eyes suddenly turned towards him.
Since he wasn''t hiding his face, his handsome face was instantly recognized by the yers gathered in the hall.
"No way, that''s Ambrose!" Around tables, the yers started whispering in shock and excitement.
At the back of the hall, around a circr table, a few gray-cloaked yers looked towards the entrance with squinted eyes.
"It is him… a man worth over 2 million silvers…" They looked at each other and started whispering something.
''Aye, aye, I guess I was recognized.''
Ambrose thought, but didn''t care and joined a line waiting to go to the registration.
However, at that moment, the yer in front of him stepped aside and allowed him to cut in line.
"Eh?" Ambrose looked at the yer in front of him, surprised by the unexpected act of kindness.
"G-go ahead, sir!" The yer said with a nervous look.
"Oh, thanks." Ambrose stepped forward and thought that was quite strange.
At that moment, another yer in front of him willingly stepped aside and allowed him to go past.
Ambrose''s eyebrow jumped, and he again stepped forward.
This continued again and again until he was at the front of the line. Surprisingly enough, everyone in the line allowed him to go past.
After arriving at the registration desk, Ambrose scratched the back of his head and said, "I''d like to register."
The registration desk attendant was another yer with a character that looked like a wizard. He had a long beard that was braided with colorful braids and a tall, pointed hat that cast a shadow over his face.
"Ah, yes, sir." The wizard-looking yer handed him the registration form and said, "Take your time, sir."
"Why is everyone calling me sir?" Ambrose asked the attendant curiously while starting to fill up the details on the form.
"It is only proper." The wizard-looking yer said with a smile. "You''re Ambrose, are you not?"
"That''s indeed my name." Ambrose said slightly awkwardly.
"There is no one in this room that wouldn''t treat you with respect." The wizard-looking yer said. "You''ve earned that, after all."
"Mm…" Ambrose side-nced at the yers around the tables and saw that they were all staring at him.
Some looked like they were ready to throw hands with them, wanting to check the strength of one of the strongest yers alive, and some simply nodded their heads as a greeting.
This was respect he earned with his strength.
Very hard-earned respect.
Ambrose soon filled out the registration form and handed it over to the attendant, who took it to the back room and soon returned with his very own card.
"This is your card, sir." The yer handed over a gold-ted card with his name engraved on it. "You''re officially a Gold-ranked adventurer; congrattions."
Gasps!
Ambrose heard many gasps of shock from the yers behind him. It seemed like it was something special.
"Is it a high rank?" Ambrose asked curiously.
"It is currently the highest, sir." The attendant said with a smile. "I sent a message to our boss, Goldfinger, and he said that it was only proper to give you the highest."
"Oh, thanks." Ambrose ced the card inside his inventory, nodded to the attendant, and moved onto the bulletin board with all sorts of quest posters hanging on it.
There was also a ranking system ced beside the bulletin board.
''The lowest rank is wood, then copper, then iron, then bronze, silver, and gold.''
"Now, what quest shall I go in…" Ambrose saw that some posters were only in specific colors, such as gold, silver, and bronze.
It looked like they were exclusive quests for higher ranked yers.
However, the majority didn''t have any specific colors, which were the ones that anyone could take.
"Excuse me, Ambrose!"
"Hmm?" Ambrose looked over his shoulder at the person who called out to him.
At that moment, a brown-haired yer reached out to his pocket and pulled out a silver card that had his name engraved.
[Rank: Silver]
[Name: Gxel]
"Gxel..?" Ambrose looked at the card and then at the yer. ''He is a silver-ranked adventurer, one rank below me.''
"That''s right." Gxel pocketed his card and bowed his head with a smile. "Nice to meet you, Ambrose."
is a silver-ranked adventurer, one rank below me.''
"That''s right." Gxel pocketed his card and bowed his head with a He had brown hair with slightly tanned skin, as if he had sunbathed not long ago. He was also dressed in armor that had lots of scratches and marks, indicating that he had been in lots of fights.
"Mm, nice to meet you." Ambrose nodded briefly and turned back to the bulletin board, as he wanted to choose his quest before attracting more attention.
He wasn''t a fool and knew that his bounty was very attractive to the majority of yers. It could make a single yer very rich if they managed to catch him.
That''s why he wanted to depart for the quest as soon as possible.
With his Formlessness, he doubted he could be caught by anyone, but if he was attacked inside a building, it could be hairy very quickly.
"Ah, excuse me for introducing myself so suddenly." Gxel said with a chuckle, realizing that he was bothering the man in front of him.
"I wanted to ask you whether you wanted to join my party."
"Your party?" Ambrose raised an eyebrow and looked at him quizzically.
"I am not arrogant enough to ask you to be my subordinate or anything like that!" Gxel shook his hands in a hurry. "It is a temporary party for the S-ranked quest!"
"S-ranked quest?" Ambrose''s interest increased immediately.
So far, he has only done A-ranked quests and has been sessful in them. That''s why he nned to do another one of those.
However, the S-ranked quest made him far more interested.
"My party is over there." Gxel pointed towards one of the tables, where around ten yers had already gathered.
They all nervously waved their hands while watching their party leader talk with Ambrose, who was basically a celebrity at this point.
"That''s a lot of yers." Ambrose said. "You really need more yers?"
"Sigh, I hate to admit it, but yeah." Gxel sighed loudly. "I already went to an S-ranked quest with ten yers, and we failed."
"You failed?" Ambrose''s eyebrow jumped, and he wondered whether he was a poor leader or whether his subordinates were simply weak.
"I know what you may think, but we are not weak." Gxel said. "All of us are already over 70 levels, but S-ranked quests are a hundred times more difficult than A-ranked quests.
"The jump in difficulty is ridiculous.
"Also, the S-ranked quest is not even the highest-ranked quest.
"There are still SS, SSS, and SSS+ quests that no one has sessfully cleared yet!"
"Wow…" Ambrose rubbed his chin and looked towards Gxel''s party members.
After a quick scan, he felt like they were quite powerful and skilled enough to potentially take on high-ranked quests.
"That''s why, I would like you to join us." Gxel said with a hopeful gaze. "With you, I think we have an amazing chance to sessfully clear the quest. Also, we have another gold-
ranked adventurer in our party already!"
"Is that so?" Ambrose looked over to them and felt one powerful auraing from the table.
It belonged to a slender-looking woman, who was sitting gracefully with one leg over the other and her head slightly lowered. He couldn''t quite catch her face, as it was covered by a hood.
With her arms crossed, she looked like she was taking a nap at the moment, but Ambrose had a feeling that she was indeed keeping a close eye on him.
"Oho, not bad." Ambrose then looked at Gxel and offered his hand. "Name''s Ambrose; sure, I''ll join you guys."
"Nice!" Gxel epted the handshake with a giant smile. "Join us at a table. We were about to start nning for the quest!"
