Chapter 26: Welcome Party.
Chapter 26: Welcome Party.
With the map in his hands, Felix traversed the city as it started getting dark. The street lights were turning on as he finally found the way to the Joyous Tavern and stood at its door.
'So this is where they called me...'
It was a brown-colored three story building with a big board on it that said its name. Pushing the wooden door, he walked inside.
A strong smell of meat and vegetables hit his nose and he started salivating the moment he entered.
There were a lot of tables on the right side with many people already waiting for their food, the left side had a half-open kitchen where chefs were preparing the dishes.
"Oh, Felix! You're here."
A shout from the right corner made him turn to see Noah and others calling him by raising their hands.
"Come here! We have booked a table."
Felix waved back at them and hurried to their table.
"Thank you, guys, for this...umm...welcome party."
He thanked them with a slight blush as he was still new and had not interacted much with them.
"It's fine Felix, you don't have to thank us. We are friends so of course we'll do this."
Noah replied as he stood up from his seat and pulled a chair for Felix to sit on while already calling him his friend.
'Wow, that was fast. I'm already his friend now?'

He chuckled at the way Noah behaved as the others also grinned at their friend who made a new member his friend this soon.
Thomas pressed his glasses and spoke.
"Felix, you don't understand. Noah will make everyone his friend the moment he talks with them."
Shaya nodded as she added.
"Yes, Thomas is right. Even the four of us were strangers but Noah just made us friends and created a team with the five of us."
Felix shook his head while being impressed at how Noah could do that because he knew he wouldn't be able to do that.
"Noah must be a great person to be able to do that."
"Hehe Felix, you don't have to compliment me. It's making me embarrassed."
Noah smiled shyly as he scratched his head and stopped them from talking about him.
"Well, enough about me. We're here to celebrate Felix joining our guild, so we must party now!"
"Yay!"
He shouted out and started ordering various foods and drinks from the waiter. The long list of orders made the worker sweat a bit as he glanced at the kids wondering whether they could eat them or not.
After the dishes were served, they all started to dig in while having a nice conversation.
Felix had fun with them as they ate and talked a lot. They told him to not hold back and eat as much as he can.
As usual, Kevin did not talk much with Betty being somewhat shy throughout the meal, but they did seem to have fun as they were smiling.
Noah and Thomas were the ones who made a lot of mess as they argued about lots of things and competed on who was the coolest.
"So, Felix. Do you want to complete a mission together with us? We'll teach you everything we know and you'll also get a nice experience."
Noah asked him out of the blue as they were conversing.
Surprised at the proposal, Felix thought for a moment and agreed as it was not that bad to do some mission together with them.
"Sure, I'll be happy to do that."
"Great! Then be ready tomorrow morning. We'll show you how we do our missions."
They smiled and shared with him about how they do their missions and some stories about the locality.
After dinner, they all walked out of the tavern and bid each other farewell.
"Thank you everyone for treating me to dinner. Next time, it'll be me treating you guys."
"Oh Felix, what are you saying? There's no need for you to do that. We are friends, right?"
Felix smiled and nodded his head at the always enthusiastic Noah.
"I'll be going now guys, take care."
"You too, take care." x5
Bidding them bye, he took out his map and started coming back to the guild's building.
Walking on the pavement with the lights of the street poles and the slight noise of a few carriages going by, he felt relaxed.
There were not many people on the streets but it was still safe without any dangers even though it was getting dark.
The moonlight from the three moons made his silver hair glow bright in the dark night, attracting a lot of attention from the public.
Felix didn't mind that and just continued to walk.
He reached the guild and entered the gate. Showing his card, the door opened as he walked inside.
It seemed that Miss Elsa was busy with something else as she wasn't present there. He climbed the stairs and went to the second floor.
Feeling his full stomach, he didn't go to the dining hall and just went back to his room.
Laying on the bed, he thought of what happened today.
'I got a new skill which will be a lot useful to me later on. And I have some remaining skill points, but I'll just keep them for later use if a need arises.'
Planning for the later events and tomorrow's mission, he started dozing off.
Sleep welcomed him as he went to dreamland.

"So, have you done it?"
A hoarse voice came from an orb as a person kneeled in a dark room.
That person trembled as he heard the voice but replied nevertheless.
"Yes, leader. I have done as you ordered.....and issued a mission in the Twilight Chaos guild."
"Good."
The voice seemed happy as the person being called 'leader' chuckled from within the orb.
"Now, we can give them a surprise."
He stopped and added while cackling.
"A surprise that they'll surely like kekekeke."
The person in the room deeply bowed hiding his terrified expression as he knew things were going to get out of hand now.
