Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

Quin had a tough decision to make and it was naturally too difficult for her. She didn\'t have much information or even experience with these kinds of situations. She was also taking her sweet time, but Rein was hungry and it was already lunchtime.

"What? What do you mean go away?"

She knew it was difficult for her too and also that her friend was getting bored on the other side so she just shook off her thoughts, asked her uncle if it was alright for her to first just finish her academy, and speeded up the process.

"It\'s just as we said, young lady. This dormitory isn\'t for someone like you."

Well, it was perfectly fine what she wanted to do with all her things and she chose to think about it later, which was also a decision so things ended there.

"What did you just say? Someone like us?"

The branch manager was also alright about it and it was actually the best decision.

She will learn more about the world and everything she needs to know about the workings of the world, the system, and all the other things that she needed to know to handle what her grandpa had left for her.

"Yes miss, someone like you two. This place shouldn\'t be fit for you so you should look for somewhere else."

So, that was that, and we said our goodbyes to him after talking with him for a bit over some major issues, and personal things.

"Heh. You just told us to go fuck somewhere else and that this is a place only for the rich people who can afford it and not some presents like us, didn\'t you?"

She decided to not take anything from her grandpa\'s wealth for now but the branch manager still gave her a <D> rank adventurer license with \'a bit\' of money in it and reassured her that he would take care of everything and that she didn\'t have to worry.

"If you are smart enough to understand that much you should be at least smart enough to understand that wasting someone\'s precious time isn\'t a good thing too, right miss?"

He asked her to enjoy her school life and have fun and meet him whenever she wanted. And she already had good friends like us so she would naturally have more fun than if she had been alone or with someone who wanted to just use her and her resources.

"You bitch! Wasting time?! Who is wasting who\'s time?!"

He also asked us to take good care of her and that he was thankful for everything we were doing.

Maybe it was just fate that brought us together but now that he knew that his good old friend had left the world and that his successor, this little girl was safe and a student in the safest academy, he could breathe a sigh of remorse and take a breath of reassurance.

"You shouldn\'t use such words, miss. And there is no need to shout like that. If you have some problem with getting out on your own, I believe the security will be good enough to help you with that."

He didn\'t know why we were helping her or what our motive was or how we even ended up meeting her but at least he could tell that we didn\'t have any malicious intentions toward his friend\'s granddaughter.

If anything, being friends with someone who had the mark of wisdom and a strange girl with such unique magic that he had faced a moment before, would be only helpful for her growth and well-being.

"Hahaha. Security huh? Yes, I believe security would be good enough to show a bitch the doors to the outside.

But you messed up wrong bitch. So wrong that you will regret this for a long time now. Especially the way you didn\'t say the things you mean and just used some sugar-coated pretty words.

That was freaking annoying.

Guards!"

So that was that, we said our goodbyes, ate lunch at a good place where… well, Rein didn\'t hold back and Quin had to spend more than she was expecting, and then reached the plaza just outside the academy where all the dormitories were situated.

-Thump. Thump. Thump.

"Yes miss how can we-…?!"

-Thud!

"We greet the new house captain of dark society! How can we help you today?"

"H-house captain…?"

"Yeah so, call the manager of this place. I have a formal complaint against an employee."

"Right away ma\'am!"

-Thump! Thump! Thump!

So, there were a total of nine dormitories in the great academy of hope. And though we had to pay to stay in one, a few of them were so cheap that anyone passing the entrance exam could afford one.

They were good and comfortable enough to get by so they were fine and if one didn\'t want to stay in them, there were some very amazing options too… just that they cost a bad amount of money so not even some of the nobles and royals are able to afford the best ones.

Like, the nine dormitories, in the order of the money they cost per single-person room, were: Coral Reef< Plankton Pack< Prawn Lake< Lobster Bay< Salmon Tavern< Dolphin Warkin< Whale Marine< Leviathan < Hydra. And just from the unique names, one can think of their individual scale.

All of them had their unique set of rules, guidelines, protocols, and specialties.

\'And originally, they were designed for a unique group of individuals.\'

Coral dormitory was the cheapest one and one can stay there for five [Wisdom] points for a month however, it was a place that students had to maintain for themselves so it wasn\'t a comfortable place like a dormitory should originally be.

-Thump. Thump. Thump.

"Hello miss. I\'m Fayz, this place\'s manager. I heard someone discomforted you?"

Plankton was better in that regard as you didn\'t have any work to do but that place cost fifteen [Wisdom] points and the rules were strict there and they also didn\'t give any food there like the coral dorm so it wasn\'t the best place.

"S-sir Fayz?"

The two of those dormitories were still manageable but as the legen~dary student council president said, the prawn dorm, which though cost thirty [Wisdom] coin a month, was the best place that not only gave you good food, the facilities there were also the best and the rules there weren\'t as strict as the other two.

But still, it had restrictions, so the lower nobility and the rich children who wanted a bit more than that went for lobster, salmon, or dolphin dormitory which though cost fifty, hundred, and three hundred [Wisdom] points, were a good and comfortable place where they can enjoy the good lone time of their lives.

"You… Mary? Was it this lady ma\'am?"

But still, the best dormitories of this academy, though very, very, very costlier than the others, were the best places, better than some of the great villas and houses on the island.

\'And they actually are some pretty great places which serve great delicacies and have many good places for the students to enjoy their free times.\'

"Yes, mister. I am very pissed at this bitch who assumed we were some broke commoners and cussed at us indirectly.

It was very fucking annoying and more so the way she talked with us. 

She literally not only disrespected the house captain of the [Dark society] but she also cussed at the vice-captain of [Wisdom phoenix].

And yeah we might not be the captains of the top houses, what is this behavior, hmm? Mister Fayz?

I\'m very fucking pissed right now so you better do something about this woman or I will have to file an open complaint about the greatest, most prestigious, and unparalleled Hydra dormitory.

And believe me when I say this mister, I know what my rights and powers are and how to use them as well as the maginet and adventurers association."

"Calm down dear. Going that far won\'t be necessary."

She was serious right now but this anger of hers was surely justifiable.

We were standing in the greatest and the costliest dormitory of the academy, the Hydra dorm, and the receptionist that should treat people equally and with her greatest care was outright telling her to get lost.

\'And as the true nature of my dear Rein went, she couldn\'t possibly accept this kind of behavior towards us.\'

This dormitory was the best and a place that stood out even among the top three dormitories.

And yes it wasn\'t better than the Leviathan dorm in an overall way, this was the best place for what we wanted.

\'And Rein couldn\'t possibly deal with a nuisance that told her to piss off every single day after we settled down here.\'

Whale dormitory cost a thousand [Wisdom] points a month but there was no room with a kitchen inside it. The Leviathan dormitory cost two thousand [Wisdom] points a month and though it had not just individual kitchens, but also much more, it was strictly divided into male and female sections so technically, we couldn\'t live there together.

So, Hydra was the best option for us and though it normally cost five thousand [Wisdom] points a month to stay here, there were dorm rooms with practically everything that a small house or apartment has.

And it was the least restricted place for couples so this was our best pick.

So, after we came here after helping Quin settle down in her dorm room in Leviathan dormitory and got into this war of words with this receptionist lady, the way she talked with Rein and me, the way Rein was pissed at her right now, and the way Rein was practically threatening to ruin the reputation of this entire dormitory, it was obvious just how much of a mess this foul-mouthed woman was in.

"Mary. I didn\'t expect you would do something like this. 

I have ignored your past bad behavior and left you with a little slap on the wrist because of your great talent but you messed up big time today."

The manager Fayz was a pretty strong person and looked to be in his late thirties. But truthfully, he was a high-grade mage in his late fifties, and from the serious look on his face right now, he seemed to really know just what kind of trouble even some words from a house captain could put them in.

"Please take her outside for now. I will finish your resignation paperwork and send it to your place."

-Thump.

"N-No! Manager! I…! I didn\'t-"

"It\'s too late now young lady. Just be happy that you are still unharmed."

-Thump. Thump. Thump.

They took her away and she could only stare back at the manager, at Rein who had not even a shred of guilt or even some other expression like happiness, and then at me who could only shake my head helplessly at that guilt-filled face.

"I apologize for the trouble our employee has caused you, miss. Please allow me to personally assist you with whatever you need."

He bowed down and the people and the students watching everything happening in the surrounding area just looked at us with a wide open mouths.

"Alright then show us your best places for an engaged couple with a kitchen, a good workshop, and a big balcony from where we can see the night sky."

"Right away ma\'am. Please come this way."

There was a large commotion but the guards came, the two of us looked around at the people watching the free show, and then as we walked away to a nearby cabin, they cleared the area and things went normal there.

We also saw the list of dorm rooms that the manager showed us on a big holographic magic screen in that cabin and the two of us settled down on a certain room after a half-hour discussion.

"Wonderful choice! We will prepare the room for the two of you to the best of our abilities and as an apology for the misbehavior of the employee, please allow us to renovate the room the way you like. "

"Nice~! I like that but we will tell you the renovation details by tomorrow or something. Let\'s settle the payments and go see the place~!"

She was happy and the place we selected was also great too so it was just natural to be happy.

And this would be our place so she was even more excited right now.

\'And by our place… yeah, no. We weren\'t going to do more than what was allowed, hopefully.\'

"Of course ma\'am. 

The base monthly rate for this one is six thousand, so what payment method would you like?"

The manager was professional and he was doing far better than I had expected right now. I really liked this person.

"We will be paying in [M] points and we would like to pay for a year right now. That\'s fine, right?"

I was asking that to Rein as I answered the manager and though surprised, the manager answered pretty calmly.

"A year Sir? Of course, it would be fine. Just give me a moment."

He was tense but he didn\'t show it, stepped back, and started doing something on an unique artifact there.

\'Yes~!\'

Rein was excited and she genuinely couldn\'t wait anymore.

"Here sir. You can just tap your ID card here for the payment process."

The manager walked back to us with a black slate-like thing and I just tapped my adventurer\'s ID on the thing, looking at the big number visible on the back of the card going down.

And yes, the manager was looking at that number too, with an expression that carried a storm underneath that calmness.

"O-ok. Thank you, sir, ma\'am. Please wait here for just a bit. I will guide you to your new place in just a moment."

And after saying that, with quick and light movements, he walked out of the room, leaving the two of us alone.

"Yei~! Finally~!"

"Yes. Finally…"

We can live alone now. Alone, only the two of us, under the same roof, with no one but the two of us.

I was a little afraid of what unknown things might happen in our time alone in this place but, even I was excited, probably more than her and more than she can think.

It was the start of a new chapter in our personal journey so… there was no reason not to be excited.
