My King System

"Wait a second Scar, now that I'm a level 27 player, does that mean I'm in the top 20 in this guild?" Yuki asked with a sinister grin. 

"I guess so, I'm pretty sure that since you're in the top 20 plus you having access to the phoenix summon means that you'll have to sign new papers to indicate what your level is so that you can receive the same perks which I have been able to enjoy," said Scar. 

"What are even the perks of being in the top 20?" Yuki asked with a curious face. 

"Well for starters, everyone will have to start treating you like a king. You'll also be able to call upon the top 10 who have an insane amount of power to your aid whenever you want. You'll be invited to the top 20 meetings although you'll be excluded from the top 10 or the top 5 meetings. Of course you'll be provided with your own room here at the castle and you'll be compensated for your hard work with free room service and food," Scar explained. 

"How do you even remember all of this stuff?" Yuki asked. 

"I guess I just have a pretty good memory. Plus you would also know if you simply read the contract you signed instead of just signing all the parts where it is asked for a signature," said Scar, which caught Yuki off guard as he had tried to keep the fact that he didn't read his contract properly a secret which he would take to the grave. 

"H-How did you know about that?" asked Yuki in a worried voice. 

"Never mind, I forgot you can read my mind. Anyway, how have you been these past 2 weeks?" Yuki asked Scar as the two of them began to leave the castle-like building which was currently the base of operations for the clan known as WD in the dead of night. 

"Well you should know that I started the task you gave me being that I needed to help Avila grow as fast as possible so that she wouldn't be a burden on us," said Scar. 

"Wait, are you saying that you took her to a dungeon? That's great!" Yuki announced. 

"Guess what level I got her to be?" Scar replied with a proud expression. 

"Level 10? No, did you somehow manage to get her into even the 3rd dungeon and clear it as well so that she would be a level 15 player?! Wow, that's wonderful, I knew I could believe in you," Yuki said to Scar with Joy.

...

"NO! I got her to level 5! But because of your crazy large guess, it doesn't sound as impressive!" Scar yelled at Yuki. 

"Sorry... I just thought that since you had so much experience in dungeons, you would be able to catch up to us quickly," Yuki said in a quiet yet happy tone. 

"Anyway, what's with the sudden change in attitude? It sounds too fake," said Scar. 

"It doesn't suit me right?" Yuki asked as he returned to his usual bored demeanor. 

"Not really. Although it would be good for you not to be so gloomy all the time, being happy all the time instead is just worse. It's okay for you to be who you truly are, if that means that you have to become an edge lord all day, so be it," Scar replied.

"Calling me an edge lord doesn't make you very convincing. Anyway, when did you and Avila get back from the first dungeon I'm assuming since she's at level 5?" Yuki asked. 

"To be honest, we just got back today. We got quite lucky since we didn't know if you would show up. Just in case you didn't, I was planning on coming up with some sort of excuse on the spot so that they wouldn't take me away," said Scar. 

"I guess that's good. Sorry for worrying about you like that. Anyway, since you've been busy training Avila for the past 2 weeks, do you want to take a break from that and go on a quest with me since I still want to gain exp?" Yuki asked.

"Sure, since we're both on the same level now anyway, we can take on higher leveled quests as well," Scar agreed as the both of them headed home together.

...

*Ding* *Dong*

"Coming!" said Avila's voice as Yuki and Scar could hear running footsteps.

"Welcome home!" said Avila as she greeted the both of them.

"How did it go with the clan?" Avila asked.

"Yuki managed to scare them off so I'll be able to stay free and do whatever I like," said Scar.

"That's wonderful news! Speaking of the clan, since I'm already at level 5, I was thinking that I could register at the clan and even go on my first quest with you tomorrow, big brother Scar," said Avila.

"Sorry Avila, I was already planning-" Scar began to speak before getting cut off by Yuki.

"He'll be happy to go with you to the guild and register you there. You won't even have to wait in life because of his rank. After that, he'll take you on your first quest so you won't get lost," said Yuki with a joyful expression which brought a smile to Avila as she rushed off to the dining room.

...

"Why did you do that? I thought we were supposed to take a day off so that we could go on a quest?" Scar asked.

"It seems like the girl had taken quite a liking to you. Take care of her. Plus, we can just go another time," said Yuki as he headed off upstairs to take a nap as he was exhausted from his 2 week trip which he spent in dungeons.

...

"Hey Yuki, if you don't come and eat, your food will get cold," Avila said.

"Don't worry about me, I already ate out before I met up with Scar. Go ahead and eat without me for the day, I'm exhausted," Yuki lied as he pretended to rest until he eventually went to sleep.

...

"What are quests like? Are they scary, boring, exciting, fun? I just can't stop thinking about tomorrow," said Avila as she ate in the dining room of the house with Scar.

"I didn't know you knew how to cook, and you can do it to an impressive extent as well," said Scar.

"Well, my parents were never really around so I was forced to live with my uncle. I had to cook on my own since all he had was a sandwich which was sold at his construction site in our previous world. They would always go soggy by the time he brought them back so I learned to cook for myself and him as well. Well I guess in the end he abandoned me but that led me to find you guys so I guess it's not that big of a deal," said Avila.

"You know Avila, Yuki said something about you treating him harshly but you seem like such a nice girl," said Scar.

"I can't really blame him. Up until a few weeks ago, I was just a spoiled brat. Even though there wasn't much in my previous life, in this one, my uncle made sure to constantly give me everything I could ever want. I guess over time, the power got to my head and turned out that way," Avila began to explain.

"No one even tried to stand up to me as my uncle was always protecting me from the back. The moment he said a single thing about me or to me and he was around to hear it, they would get fired instantly. To me, it was nice since for the first time in my life, I wasn't just some random kid with no parents and a guardian who was gone most of the day. It felt amazing so I abused the power until one day a random kid came to start working for my uncle because he needed a job," Avila continued.

"Just as I did to most of the others at the job site, I annoyed him but due to his attitude and him being a newbie, I decided to mess with him until I took it too far. Even so I didn't expect him to do anything and if he did, I thought it would be mild yelling but he hit me as hard as he could. That was when I realized how arrogant and stupid I was. My uncle even offered to fire him but I told him no. We needed someone like him there to keep me in check. However after a short while, the escape plan took place and here we are now," Avila finished.

"Wow, I had no idea that you've known Yuki for this long. Sometimes he can be a jerk but he only does what benefits him and maybe those he cares about so just please bear with him," Scar requested.

"I still have mixed feelings about him but I'll try my best, for both you and I!" Avila replied.
