Chapter 2
POV third
"How the fuck did this happen?..." Klint says as he and Elizabeth are stuck sitting in the "Village of Adventures" guild master's office after trying to join. Annoyed, he looks is at the two guild ID cards in front of them, one belonging to him and the other being Elizabeth's.

Just by looking at her stats alone Klint can tell why they were called into the office. Just then, a very... Portly(?) looking man enters the room, looking like he's sweating up a storm.
Mumbling "oh deer, oh deer, oh deer" he wipes the sweat from his forehead with a tissue before putting it back into his pocket. He then sits down across from the two before he speaks to them. "Good afternoon, you two. My name is Lucian, though people call me 'Lu' for short. Welcome to the Adventurer's Guild."
"Thank you" Klint says while Elizabeth has an annoyed look on her face"Yeah, sure. Now, mind telling us why you called us up here? Especially since we only just signed up!" Then she mumbles quietly "it's too early for me to get in trouble, isn't it?..."
"Yes, about that..." He turns to Klint before asking "I'm sorry, but can you wait outside? This is an important matter." When he asked that, Elizabeth got alittle irritated, as she realizes now why they were called there.
She coughs to get his attention "About that... You see, Klint and I are a team, so whatever you want to ask me" she then says this in an annoyed voice "you can say it in front of him as well."
Lucian starts to sweat alittle more as he starts to get nervous. "Well... Ok... You see" he motions to her stats. "Your abilities far surpass those of even A Rank adventurers, and as such, we'd like you to become an S rank. However..." He motions to Klint's stats. "Even being an S rank, you won't be able to take on even B rank mission if you remain in the same party as young Mr Farfield here, due to his stats being around E-D rank at best, what's more he's Bless-less, and our clients believe that they are too weak for guild quests above D rank. Sooo..."
When he said that, it was like the entire room started to heat up out of nowhere. Klint turns to Elizabeth, only to start shaking in fear as he sees her just staring at the guy with the evilest smile on her face. "Is that so?..."
Time Skip
The room Klint and Elizabeth were sharing
The two finally make it to their shared room and once inside, Elizabeth crashes on the bed while Klint, for some reason, seems to be holding back his laughter. When he composes himself, he turns to Elizabeth before saying "well, that was a first..."
Muffled since her head was covered by a pillow. "He grabbed my chest, did you really think I wouldn't do that? Plus, I was still pissed about what the guild master said..."
"But to shove a whole cheese grater up his ass?"
She takes the pillow off her face and looks at him. "That guy's lucky I didn't kill him."
Klint then turns away "he's gonna wish you did kill him, considering you shoved it handle first."
"Well, hopefully now he'll know not to grab a girl by her chest!"
There was complete silence after that, until the two broke down in complete laughter from remembering how the guy looked when his party tried to ripe the cheese grater out. After laughing for a while, the two laid down on the bed, calming down, until...
"... Hey, Klint?"
"... Yeah?..."
"You still remember, right?"
"... Of course I do. That was the whole point of our journey."
The camera pans out to the moonless sky before Klint continues.
"- to know why the Kingdom betrayed us when the demons attacked..."
