Chapter 4: The Infamous Couple
The Adventure Guild was a skyscraper of over 10 floors, with the lettering "Adventure Guild" boldly displayed. The sun had just begun to rise, casting soft rays over the city.
Despite it being early morning, several adventurers were going in and coming out with quest parchments, while a few—drenched in blood and dirt—headed back inside to submit their completed quests.

"Ewww, what's that stench?"
"Did he come out from a sewage or something?"
The adventurers that passed couldn't help but scrunch up their faces as Gabriel walked by. Some even threw up their meals, and a few tried to chase him away, thinking he was mentally ill and had forgotten his home.

Before he could step in, a voice boomed from inside.
"What the heck!"
