Chapter 15: First Mission Confirmation

Dungeon, 1st Floor, Yukihira Restaurant.

"Soma! The Mapo Tofu order for table number 3 is ready! Hurry up"

"I understand!"

"Soma! I have already made a choice!"

"I understand! Please wait a moment!"

At this time inside the restaurant, Yukihira was having a lot of visitors coming for breakfast. The owner of this place, Yukihira Jouichirou, is currently busy in the kitchen cooking various kinds of dishes ordered by the guests while her son, Yukihira Soma, is currently busy giving orders to each customer along with writing down orders from each customer.

Yukihira Restaurant is very famous in this dungeon, especially among people with low-middle-income economies. Yukihira Restaurant is known for the good taste of its dishes along with the prices offered are also cheap.

Yukihira Jouichirou is an adult man who has a good posture with the appearance of an adult man aged about 30 to 40 years old with long maroon hair.

While Yukihira Soma is a teenage man who has a small posture body with red hair stature that stands sharp and golden eyes with a mixture of red. Although Soma is still a teenager, his ability to carry out his current work is classified as professional. This was gained by him through the experience of working in this restaurant for several years before.

"Soma! We are done, how much is the pay?"

Soma immediately approached the customer's seat with a professional smile, "I'll count it right away" Soma immediately took the notes for the table and then began to calculate the total payoff for the table.

"Uncle Tanaka, the total is 25 bronze coins"

Uncle Tanaka is one of those who often comes to the end or can be said to be a regular customer at Yukihira's restaurant. Every day, this person will come to eat here, whether it is at breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Surely this person will be here at that one time.

Uncle Tanaka nodded and immediately gave the payment to Soma, "Thank you for the meal, Soma. I'll go back to continue my work first"

"Thank you, Uncle Tanaka. Please come again" Soma said with a respectful bow after driving Uncle Tanaka out of the restaurant.

"Soma! Don't stay there! This order for table number 5 and number 6 has been completed! Immediately put it upon them"

"I'm not standing idly by, Old Man!" Soma shouted irritably and immediately executed the order.

The interaction between Soma and Jouichirou is a common activity that has often occurred in this restaurant. The customers who come here are in addition to their destination who want to eat food with good taste at affordable prices. They will usually wait for two situations where the fight between Soma and Jouichirou and the match between these two people.

"This is your order, Uncle Kite" Soma gave the food to the number six table which was occupied by a regular customer of Yukihira's restaurant, namely, Uncle Kite.

"Hahaha, Soma. If you don't want to continue to be an employee, you should be able to take over the kitchen territory from your father. As long as you can get the position, you will not be ruled as you are today"

"Take it easy, Uncle Kite" Soma said with great pride, "It won't take long for me to beat, Old Man. I will take over this restaurant from him soon"

"It didn't take long to beat me? Said a man who has lost 456 times without winning though" Jouichirou said with a grin as his current focus was on the work done by him.

"Noisy Old Man! Don't be so arrogant! In the next game, I will beat you!" Soma said with a frown.

"Hi, hi, I'm waiting for that day to come"

*Plaque!*

suddenly—

The entrance of Yukihira's restaurant opened and revealed a man carrying a sword on the left side of his waist walking in. The man who walked in was Rayleigh. Rayleigh currently has two missions to complete by him. The first mission was to collect 100 Grisal crops while the second mission was to collect 10 kilograms of horned beef along with 5 liters of nested cow's milk.

Rayleigh chose to carry out a meat and dairy collection mission. This was done by him to adapt to the power possessed by him at this time, and Rayleigh was quite curious about the monsters in this dungeon.

"Welcome! Are you alone or have a friend coming?" Soma immediately greeted him with a professional smile despite seeing someone carrying a sword walk into the restaurant. People carrying swords are very ordinary or common things in this dungeon. This caused no fear that existed within Soma related to someone carrying a sword.

"I'm Silver Rayleigh, I came here wanting to confirm the mission at your place"

Jouichirou, who heard the name, immediately stopped the work done by him and then walked towards the front, "So, you are an adventurer who is going to take this mission"

"You are that adventurer?" Soma asked with a face full of surprise, "Can you do it? Horned cows are quite ferocious animals and also they will be ready to attack anyone who is on their territory"

"Soma!" Jouichirou suddenly called out in a serious tone, "Never underestimate others because of the appearance they have. A man who has been willing to be an adventurer has brought the courage to be ready to die in the mission performed by him."

"Hahaha," Rayleigh laughed excitedly, "I didn't expect to hear something interesting from you"

Rayleigh's gaze then stared at Soma and said, "Young man, don't look at my appearance like this. A person's strength is not seen by his appearance. In addition, I also agree with what was said by him" Rayleigh then looked at Jouichirou, "By the time I became a repeater, I was already preparing for whatever consequences would be faced even if death was to be obtained by me"

All the diners in Yukihira's restaurant watched with interest the conversation that happened.

"Hahaha, that's a good spirit" Jouichirou laughed excitedly, 'The two of us will probably become familiar. I'm Yukihira Jouichirou. Just call me Jouichirou. I am the head chef of this restaurant"

"The head chef?" Rayleigh thought, "So, he's the one"

"Call me Ray, people used to call me that," Rayleigh said kindly.

"Well, then. Ray. I have already received the confirmation. You can already carry out this mission"

Along with Jouichirou's words, the mission panel on the left side of Rayleigh's view instantly changed.

[The mission for the collection of 10 kilograms of meat and also 5 liters of milk from horned cows has been confirmed. Please carry out the mission before the due date is over]

"Are you able to tell me the location where there are many horned cows?" Rayleigh asked calmly.

"Don't you know it?" Jouichirou asked in confusion.

"This is my first mission as far as I am an adventurer. Therefore, I still don't understand the location of some places" Rayleigh replied quickly.

"So" Jouichirou nodded, "The location of the horned cows themselves is scattered throughout the territory outside of this city area. You can find them very easily. However, if you want a lot of locations. You can go to the eastern region, which is 1 kilometer away from the gate of Atlantis City. There is a very large pasture there and there is also a gathering place for horned cows."

"Old man, you have to be careful" Soma added, "The shielded cow is a monster that is very aggressive towards humans. Whoever breaks into their territory and is later discovered by them, will directly attack indiscriminately. Many cases have occurred as a result of—"

*BOOM!*

"It hurts! Unlucky! What do you mean by hitting me, Old Man?!" Soma asked angrily.

"I told you, didn't I? Don't underestimate the adventurers!" Jouichirou said angrily as her gaze stared at Rayleigh, "I'm sorry for the attitude from my son, Ray. He didn't mean to underestimate you"

"Hahaha, don't worry. I'm not offended by this either" Rayleigh smiled casually and added, looking up at Soma, "Young man, you'd better listen to what your Dad said. Not all adventurers are happy to be said to be so. It could be that you meet adventurers who have high self-esteem and that will cause you to get attacks or something from them."

"... I understand" Soma finally nodded and then apologized, "I'm sorry for my previous attitude"

"That's good" Rayleigh nodded and stared at Jouichirou, "I'll go finish your request. I just need to bring it here back, right?"

"If you have collected all the things that are in demand and come back, just go to the back door of this store. You can tap it there. Later, it will be me or not Soma who will confirm the completion of the mission you are doing"

"Ok"

Rayleigh immediately turned to walk out of Yukihira's restaurant and began to go to the location told to him by Jouichirou. After Rayleigh left the restaurant, the atmosphere of the restaurant returned to its original state.

"It's incredible" Rayleigh muttered, "Every human being in this world has the traits and personalities of a human being in the outside world. Although it is difficult to say they are real human beings, it is difficult to distinguish the two"

It didn't take long for Rayleigh to arrive at the gate of the eastern part of Atlantis City. The gate of Atlantis City itself is almost like the gate owned by the ancient kingdom. The city of Atlantis is surrounded by a very high wall where function of the wall is to protect a sense of security to residents from monsters outside the safe zone.

Every gate in Atlantis City has a guard and the task of this guard is to check everyone who comes and enters the City of Atlantis.

"Stop!"

Just as Rayleigh was about to step out of the gate, a guard with a sword on the left side of his waist immediately came to Rayleigh.

"This guy... He is very strong" Rayleigh thought seriously.

Rayleigh through his Haki Observation can feel the power of the guard. At least the strength of the guard was felt Rayleigh to be stronger compared to him. It is not a comparison of the power possessed by him in the dungeon but the real world.

"Who are you and what is your purpose for going out?" The Guardian asked sternly.

"Silver Rayleigh, I am an adventurer," Rayleigh said calmly, "My goal is to complete the mission given to me"

"Adventurer?" The guard was a little surprised at this, "Can you show me the evidence"

"Evidence?" Rayleigh asked, lifting his forehead.

"Proof you are an adventurer" The guardian replied to him, "You must have a status panel, right? Only adventurers have that. Please show it to me"

Rayleigh immediately swiped his hand toward the front and instantly a status panel appeared in front of him, "Can you see it?" Rayleigh asked calmly.

The guard nodded and said, "It's not wrong. You are an adventurer."

"Have I been able to get out?" Rayleigh asked, pulling back the status panel.

"Please. You can go out freely" The guard said kindly with a smile.

"Free?" Rayleigh asked puzzledly.

"Usually, to go out and enter the inner Atlantis City, you are required to pay a sum of money. To enter it is necessary to pay a fee of 10 bronze coins while for exiting it is required to pay 5 bronze coins. However, the rule only applies to the people. While in the case of adventurers, each adventurer gets the freedom to enter the inside of a city without having to pay the slightest fee. They only need to show proof they are adventurers by showing the status panel they have to the guards."

"I see. That's quite helpful" Rayleigh nodded, "Thanks for the information"

"You're welcome. I hope you can come back safely. The outer zone is dangerous. There are a lot of instability factors that you can find there."

"Don't worry" Rayleigh grinned, "I will come back safely. Besides, my goal is to become an adventurer because of the instability factor. It would be very unpleasant if someone already knew the end of the acts committed by him"

"..." The guard fell silent listening to these words from Rayleigh.

Rayleigh without waiting for a reply immediately stepped his feet out of the safe zone and stepped out towards the zone of the monsters. Instantly Rayleigh arrived at the monsters' zone. Rayleigh instantly felt the sense of security possessed by him suddenly disappear and at this moment Rayleigh felt a threat that could come.

"Is this just my feeling or— No, it's not just a feeling. But something that has been established" Rayleigh said with his face smiling excitedly, "It's been a long time since I ever felt this kind of threat. It seems that my decision to be an adventurer was correct. Roger, wait for me! I'll resurrect you soon and then we'll have an adventure in this fun place together."

The feeling that Rayleigh has at this moment is not a feeling of fear but a feeling of fullness of joy. By the time Rayleigh had reached punch power in his previous life, it was hard for him to feel the so-called threat. However, it is different at this time. By the time he was just out of the safe zone, Rayleigh could already feel the so-called dangerous feeling almost as he had felt back when his strength was still weak.

This is something Rayleigh desperately wants and misses.
