I can't wait to try out this new magic. I'm practically jumping with joy, after all this magic sounds pretty fancy, I don't think I could obtain them under normal circumstances. Well, I can test them out later, I guess I should start heading back now. I've got proof that I killed nine undead so that should be... 36 silver, nice.
I had left the ruins, and when the town came into view I noticed there was large traffic going into it. Were these the adventurers I heard about? If I pick up the pace maybe I can check out their stats before they start their job. I did just that and started jogging back to the town. Along the way, I decided to try out my [Blood Magic]
So what, do I just imagine what I want it to form and use the magic? Let's try a knife.
[Blood Magic]
"Ow, ow, ow, this really hurts"
The blood from my body started pooling near my right hand, and after a few red swirls a crude-looking kitchen knife formed in my hand. It's probably not sanitary to make food with, but it looks cool. I hit a nearby tree with it, and after about four strong hits the knife broke. I continued walking back to town. It's definitely not perfect; it used a lot of blood, hurt a lot, had imperfections all over it, and broke in just a few hits, but if I can make someone else bleed then this should be really useful. I wonder how much blood is needed to make something like a greatsword or battleaxe. Oh, I'm at the town entrance.
I gave my card to the guard at the gate and headed in. As soon as I entered there was a swarm of people surrounding what looked like four people in very nice equipment. At the center was a blond and Caucasian man wearing a set of very shiny dark blue armor; is that mithril? It looks like they're famous; are all high-ranking adventurers this well-liked and praised? Maybe I should focus on being a better adventurer.
After listening to the crowd, I came to the conclusion that their group name was "athanasía," whatever that means and their leader was the blond guy in blue armor whose name was Alexander Wesley

Not as impressive as the other guy, maybe I just overestimated them a bit.
George looked in my direction before locking his sight on me. I ducked behind the crowd as soon as I noticed, but it's probably best to assume he saw me. Was it because I used Inspect on him? Did he notice because he's a scout? Was it perhaps due to a skill? Well, whatever it was I should probably stay out of their way for a bit. Who knows, maybe he didn't get a good look at me.
I snuck away and made my way back to the Adventurers Guild where I showed proof of my completion of the task; in turn, I was given 24 silver coins. It was getting dark out, I guess I should find a place to stay for the night.
I ended up finding a small and cheap place near the guild, and for the cost of 5 silver coins a night, I got a room, breakfast, and dinner. A decent price if I do say so myself. I want to try and get some more money soon, after all, if I'm going to be an adventurer I should probably look the part. My clothes now make me look like a farmer.

I opened the window of my room and looked outside. The night sky was so clear tonight; It was beautiful. I just stared at the sky. After some more time passed, I closed the window and went to bed.
*
I woke up to screams and shouts; I quickly rushed and opened my window. It was still nighttime, but a large wall of flames illuminated the sky and surrounded a portion of the city. I looked around and believe I found the culprit. A single creature floated in the sky above all the chaos, it was that guy in the book I set free. What was his name? Wait, did I not ask for his name?

[BLOCKED]
A sense of pain rushed through my head, and when I saw him again he was looking at me. His attention was quickly taken away from me as a large spell was flung toward him from below. A flash of blue covered the fire and extinguished it.
Shit, do I run from the city or fight? What to do, what to do... Oh god dammit. I put my shoes on and rushed out of the inn. I might as well try and help, I mean I can always escape if things go wrong, plus I feel partially responsible.
I started writing this when I was in high school just for fun, and while I love the ideas and story I had come up with for it, I don't like how it is written and feel like a HUGE overhaul is needed if I want the novel to read how I envisioned it. Sadly I don't have the time to go back and rewrite nearly 25k words worth of story while changing things along the way to be more interesting. I just don't have the free time to do this when I could be writing another story or doing something else. I'm sorry, but this series will be on indefinite hold.
