Bab 187: Registration
After being checked by the guard at the gate, both Alex and Anne entered the town of Brooke. By this point he had changed clothes to match his job on the status plate, monk, by wearing his gi like combat clothes based off of Goku's, and pulling out the staff Wukong gave him. With this the guard didn't even look twice at Alex, but instead his gaze was attracted to Anne when she presented her plate. Her job was surprisingly dancer, which made some sense when considering the movements of slayer magic.
After passing the guard the two made their way into town, with the guard's eyes still on Anne. As they walked people would stop and stare at them, their gazes drawn by Alex's figure, and Anne's looks combined with her outfit. Sensing their looks, Anne clung to Alex's arm so they looked like lovers, and said,
"It's nice to be put and around with just the two of us." Alex smiled gently, and said,
"After we're done in the guild today we should have quite a bit of money available, we can just spend tomorrow walking around and looking at the stores and stalls." Anne's smile grew at his suggestion, and she clung to his arm tighter in response. The twos good mood continued all the way until the guild, but then they ran into someone right as they entered the building that wanted to ruin it.
As they walked through the door they ran into a small group that had been walking out, a single guy flanked by a girl on each side. The guy took one look at them and sized up both Alex and Anne at once. While Alex could be considered intimidating with his muscular physique, in a world that had a strength stat muscles didn't mean anything. As the man hadn't seen Alex before he automatically pegged him as an amateur at adventuring, before setting his sights on the beauty next to him. She had an exotic look to her and the dancers outfit she wore was definitely eye catching, especially since she seemed to carry a 'pure' aura around her. He immediately ignored Alex and said to Anne,
"I'm Abel, the gold rank adventurer known as the Sword Lord, would you like to join us tonight? I can assure you there's plenty of room on the bed." Abel was sure the girl would join him for the night after telling her his name and rank, what kind of girl would refuse one of the highest ranking adventurers over a nobody? Against his expectations however, Anne only had a look of disgust on her face. Even though she already made her peace with being part of a harem, at least Alex was nothing like the guy in front of them. The girls next to Abel sneered at the obvious disgust on Anne's face, and said haughtily,
"Apparently you don't seem to realize how generous lord Abel is by making this offer, you can have a night to be proud of, while your boyfriend could even brag about how his woman slept with a gold ranker. Who knows, you could even get extra lucky and bear lord Abel's child." At the mentioning of even bearing this disgusting guys child, Anne snapped. She didn't say anything, but raised her hand towards the two girls. At first neither one reacted, but then they both started steadily rising in the air.
""KYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAA!!!""
They both screamed, while Abel was staring dumbfoundedly at what was happening. Soon they could raise no more due to the ceiling, where they both stopped. Anne snorted, and turned away from both girls, intending to leave them both up there. Abel then seemed to realize what happened, and drew his sword,
"Put them down, and maybe I won't rethink spending time with you tonight!" Anne snorted at Abel too, and said while clinging onto Alex lovingly,
"I would but you know what they say, bigger is better." At those words every persons gaze instantly went to Alex's crotch, as if they were trying to verify her words by peering through the fabric. The funny thing was that Anne herself was still pure, she had simply seen Alex naked from the previous incidents and knew his size while assuming Abel couldn't match him. Abel had a red hue to his cheeks at her words, and said,
"I gave you a chance bitch, don't hold it against me!" Before lunging at her suddenly, however his sword came to an abrupt stop due to the hand that had closed around it. Everyone watched in complete amazement as Alex gripped the blade of Abel's sword with his bare hand, not knowing he applied armament Haki to just the inside of his hand. Abel was in shock once more as Alex pulled the blade from his grip, and placed the tip against his fortified hand, while he placed the hilt in his other hand. He then pushed both his hands together, and crushed the sword into a small ball of metal. Everyone in the building gulped at the display, and Alex spoke for the first time,
"Does any one else have a problem?" Everyone immediately turned the other way, leaving Abel to fend for himself while the two girls still wailed to be let down. Alex then kicked Abel in the crotch, and sent him flying through the door without a single chance to resist. Everyone watched as a gold rank adventurer was instantly defeated, though some felt that he didn't actually truly earn his rank to begin with. What they didn't see was that after being sent out the door Abel was enveloped in mist and disappeared, sent to a place that would be a living hell for him and ran by a group that only Alex and Serafall knew the existence of. Acting as if nothing happened, Alex made his way to the counter where a plump auntie type women was waiting for them.
"That was quite an entrance." Was all she said, while Alex smiled wryly and replied,
"Sorry for the disturbance, but we didn't start that." She nodded and explained,
"Abel had always been causing trouble while using his gold rank as an excuse, and since gold ranks are rare and valuable assets we can't go after them for every little thing. I'm actually glad someone decided to teach him a lesson. Now, I'm guessing you're here to register as an adventurer?" Since Alex and Anne were obviously stronger than usual, the woman had figured they were unregistered due to the fact she hadn't heard about them before. Alex confirmed her guess when he nodded, but continued,
"We don't have the money needed to pay the registration fee though, so we need to exchange some of our monster materials first." The woman waved away Alex's words and said,
"It's no trouble, since you're already planning to register I'll give you full price to begin with. You can call me Catherine by the way." Alex blanked for a second before recalling that those registered with the guild had an increase in the amounts they received from monster items. He thanked Catherine for her assistance, and had Anne start removing the items stored in her storage. The sudden appearance of a small pile of resources made everyone's eyes go wide again, but Catherine's face never moved as she maintained her professionalism. Alex smiled at this and wondered how long it'll last, as they were processed and the next batch of items was brought out.
They had started with the materials from the weaker monsters they faced, and gradually went up in strength and value. When they removed the items from the behemoths her face twitched, but she didn't react otherwise. By the time the guild building was supposed to close, they hadn't even gotten to the materials from the second half of Orcus and they had already amassed a small fortune, even the guild master had to make an appearance with all the strange materials they hadn't seen before. Catherine looked at Alex from the side, and said,
"I don't suppose you could tell me where you faced these monsters at?" She already had her suspicions, but wanted to hear it from Alex himself. The man in question smirked, and said,
"I won't, have to maintain some secrets after all." Catherine nodded, and decided to keep a close eye on Alex and what requests he would choose. As for Alex's impression of Catherine, he wasn't too worried about her since he knew her from the series. Though she seemed somewhat unimpressive, she actually had a lot of influence in the various adventurer guilds throughout the continent, and seemed quite open minded.
After that Alex and Anne went to a place called Masaka Inn, and stayed in one of the rooms for two people. Anne was giddy at first from how they looked like a couple staying together, but forgot how couples share beds. She was nervous to begin with even though nothing was going to happen, and woke up the next morning snuggling up to Alex, who only reciprocated her actions. It wasn't until they woke up that Anne recalled the two girls she stuck to the ceiling the night before.

Meanwhile...
Abel was running along the beach trying to figure out where he was. The last thing he recalled was being kicked out of the door of the guild by that guy after having his manhood kicked, then he was on a beach. A bit of looking around revealed he was on an island, which only confused him even more. Eventually he shouted out in frustration,
"WHERE THE HELL AM I?!!!!!!"
Before collapsing on the beach, not knowing what to do. He then started thinking survival, he needed to get food and water. Abel may have used backdoor methods to get his gold rank, but that didn't mean he didn't have skills. However as he stared thinking of how to best secure food,
"Oh my, we have a new recruit~nyo💕?" Abel became as stiff as a board at the voice, and turned around to see a massive thing that was so muscular that it put that guy who sent him here to shame, but was dressed in girly clothes and had the ears of the cat race. The man(?) then pulled out a whistle and blew into it, causing more of them to seemingly fall out of the sky a second later to land next to them. They then let out a chorus of loud shrieks while going "nyo💕" over and over, and some even looked at Abel with a predatory gaze while saying he was their type. Abel had never been so scared in his life, what was going to happen to him? At that moment the group started splitting, and the most impressive specimen yet started approaching him. They took one look at Abel, and said,
"Welcome to your new home, Magical Girl Island~💕! We are a secret group that follows the boss who promised us that one day we might actually become magical girls, and he'd find us more comrades~💕! You're our lucky first recruit since following the boss, so come and we'll begin your magical girl training~nyo💕!" Abel had no words for this situation, or rather he couldn't speak in this situation. But sadly for him his silence was taken as acceptance, so the one in charge, the one the others started referring to as 'Mil-Tan' grabbed his leg and started dragging him away.
"N-no! I don't want to join your freak group, rather what is a magical girl?" At his words Mil-Tan and the rest of the magical girls covered their mouths and gasped, 'what is a magical girl?'! To them this was the deepest of tragedies, and Mil-Tan declared,
"This is bad~nyo. We have to return to the base right away and start the 'Magical Girl Milky' marathon!💕" The others agreed with his(?) words, and rushed back to their base, dragging the screaming Abel with them the whole way.
Abel was never heard from again, instead there was only Magical Girl Annabelle.
