Chapter 25: Mana Madness
Now that they had an agreement on what they would be doing, all that remained was to get started.
"Jake, since you are new to this town, what you need first is an adventurer’s card," Rion said.
"And how do I get that?" Jake asked.
"The guild. You can undergo a trial there to get the card, but as a Chosen, they might cut some corners for you.
There are seven ranks for adventurers: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Obsidian, Legendary, and Mythic. Each rank is then split into three—one star, two star, and three stars," Rion explained.
"Rion and I are both three-star Gold, and in a few months, we will have the chance to take the Platinum exams," Seer added.
"You can’t take it when you want?" Jake asked.
"No. Three-star Gold is the highest you can get right off the bat and also through adventures. After that, special occasions are needed to go up," she explained.
"But even then, getting Gold from the exam is not simple. The exams are extremely hard. There are people that have forever been lost to mana madness because of the exam, and that’s a fate worse than death," Rion said.
