3 Assassination

" I have a skill called Oracle which allows me to see someone's future and when I met you the first time, I saw your future in which, you were going to be assassinated on the same day we met if I had just left you on your own."

Bushche explained himself, leaving Dave on his own.

Dave went back to his room as soon as possible and summoned his skill book.

=====

[ Congratulations, you have gained a new skill]

[ Poison Resistance]

[ Skill Level 1]

[ The stronger the poison the more mana it will use]

[ You are immune to any kind of poison]

He was sure that whoever was trying to assassinate him was going to use poison to kill him since they haven't confronted him before. He formulated a plan in his mind and started to pack things in his bag, he also packed the language books. In return for taking the books, he left some banknotes which may not be useful but still they were valuable to Dave.

' As if I would live while being pitied by someone who works for them...he can change his mind anytime he wishes, after all, he is just another servant of that person who summoned me.' Dave thought as he set out of the mansion. People noticed him going out of the gates but didn't try to stop him.

Once again he found himself on the streets, this time making sure that he didn't collide with another person while walking.

' I am sure only those fuckers from the palace could think of assassinating me.' He thought.

Dave didn't have anything except for some useless documents in his bag. He didn't have a weapon although he could have taken a few things with himself from Bushche's mansion he chose to leave without doing such things.

" Where do I go now?" He sighed and started to walk slowly. He wasn't even capable of communicating with anyone so he wondered where should he go now.

" I am hungry...but after leaving without informing them... I can't just steal food." Dave said, but he was loud enough for people to notice him using unusual language, making the other people on the street halt and look at him weirdly.

With an uncomfortable face, Dave quickly retreated from the scene and kept on running in the opposite direction from where he was coming.

Huffing and panting he stopped in a garden where many other people were sitting and enjoying a picnic. Now that he looked clearly, this world was quite beautiful. The roads were clean and the air also smelled very fresh, not like his previous world.

" I should just accept the fact that I can not return to my old world, there is no one waiting for me in that world anyway." Dave thought to himself while feeling very hungry, but instead of thinking that he enjoyed the wind and sunlight.

However suddenly something blocked that sunlight, he opened his eyes and saw a person standing there. The person had several pamphlets in his hands, Dave took one of the pamphlets offered to him.

" Why did he give this to me?" Dave thought and then took out the language book from this bag.

He had at least learned the alphabet of this world so finding the words and making sense of them wasn't that difficult.

" Guild...Re..recruitment" He read the words carefully before making sense of them.

He read the rest of the content the guild was looking for staff who can help in the daily operations. There was an opening for a receptionist, a dealer, and some other available jobs for everyone.

"...I don't want to work for someone else in this world as well...can I just not live a wildlife here?" He said and threw away the paper.

' Wait a minute, that won't do, I need to find a job, how will I survive?' Dave thought and then wondered ' Come to think of it...will anyone hire me?'

" I was going to be rich, but suddenly I am once again worried about finding a job...whatever I have to do it anyway."

He quickly got up to read the paper carefully and looked for an address but was very confused with the text once again.

He then walked up to a person and showed him the paper, using his body language he tried to ask for the address. The person had a startled reaction but did tell him the direction.

*****

Standing in front of the building Dave matched the words with the pamphlets. After thinking a little bit about it, he entered the building filled with several people. All of them had some kind of weapon or were wearing some kind of armour.

Dave on the other hand looked out of place, the skin of these people was rather different. Like Bushche most of them were black and brown-skinned people, and some of them were like the celebrities he had seen in action movies.

Dave had bright white skin and a face that can never be called ugly, but he was skinny compared to the people standing inside here. He walked towards the reception area and showed the receptionist his paper.

The receptionist was wearing a red uniform, she was a young girl around the same age as Dave. She took the pamphlet from his hand and started to speak but Dave didn't understand him. After seeing that Dave didn't understand, she changed to another language and then another.

" Can you speak English as well?" Dave asked making the receptionist surprised, she bowed and left her desk after gesturing for him to wait.

After some time she came back with a note written in the English language which said,

–Please come to my office.

He followed the receptionist into the office where a man wearing a similar uniform but with several medals was sitting on a comfortable chair. The man had very long black hair, and he looked like a native person from the colour of his skin.

" Please sit down," He offered Dave to sit down.

Dave thanked him and then introduced himself and explained the reason why he was there. The man was currently looking at Dave suspiciously.

" How come you are not able to speak the native languages but able to speak English?" The man asked before even telling his name.

" What if I tell you I am not from this world?" Dave asked. He was taking this interview very lightly as he didn't hope to get a job in the first place.

" That wouldn't make sense, since only the royal family can summon someone from another world and they never let anyone like that roam free in the world." The man answered, " On the other, it's the only plausible explanation."

" I will learn the language of this world anyhow within a few months. I need shelter and a job, do you have any openings that are suitable for me?" Dave asked.

" I have many jobs, but you are not fitting into any of them. How about you tell me what skills you have?" The man asked.

" I have one, it's called Appraisal," Dave spoke.

For some reason, the man didn't reply and remained silent, he scratched his head as if he had never heard of such skill.

" It allows me to get the information on any object that I touch," Dave added.

This time the man was surprised, he quickly took a red gem out of his drawer and put it on the desk.

" Can you tell me what type of gem it is?" He asked.

Dave touched the gem cautiously with one finger, in case it was dangerous and in his mind, he thought of activating the appraisal skill. Soon a system window appeared in front of him.

There wasn't much information, but it was enough for a test. The manager of the guild believed him and finally sat in a serious posture.

" My name is Oscar, I don't have the last name because I am a commoner." He explained and then added, " I can hire you but on one condition."
