Chapter 4: The First Quest?
Yamamoto looked around and saw many people waving their hands at them or more specifically at his kohai, Yuri. He grinned. He can't believe that his kohai was that popular here to the point that many people throw flowers at him. Thank goodness that his fans never did that to him when he was still in Namimori.
Yamamoto gave the people a cheerful smile. Many female saw this and squeals loudly at this. Yamamoto saw this and sweat dropped. 'Guess I'll still be popular huh. Oh hey! Maybe this is one of the quests I need to do. I have to make many people trusts me while I am in here. From what the games I play with Tsuna whenever he skips his paperworks, the villagers are the one that give you amazing quests and give you awards whenever you completed it. But since that I still need to find out more about this world then maybe I can look for a notice board then. They always have quests for beginners. Guess I'll just asked Yu-chan then.'
"Hey Yu-chan!" Yamamoto called making the said person turn to him.
Yuri was waving his hands at the greetings his people gave to him. He sighed inwardly. Even though that he had already gotten used to this treatment already, he still can't get over to the fact that the people here never get bored at greeting him whenever he comes here. I mean come on! They do this every time he arrived. Isn't it time for them to stop this? This is already freaky. He was still waving at them enthusiastically when he heard his senpai called him.
"Hey Yu-chan!" Yamamoto called. Yuri turned around and noticed that his senpai was giving him a sheepish smile. The others must had heard him too since they also turned their heads at him.
"I was wondering Yuri, where is the notice board?" He said.
"Huh?" Yuri asked. He was extremely confused. What reasons does his senpai wants with a notice board anyway?
"Now why would you want that, Yamamoto-san?" Conrad asked in a confused voice.
"Well, I was wondering maybe I can start the quests already. You know, so that I can go back to my world. My boss might get worried when I won't return at home after the weeks over. And if completing this game will help me return to my world then I have to start as soon as possible. I'll complete this game before the week is even over." Yamamoto said in a serious manner.
Everyone around Yamamoto who knew what he was talking about became silent. They never knew how serious Yamamoto was in claiming that what happened to him was a game. And what's worse was that, he wants to finish this as soon as possible. They were very positive that there are no notice boards that give some kind of bizarre requests at this.
Murata, who was as shocked as everyone was at Yamamoto's serious tone and seriousness in completing the game, decided to humor the senpai.
"Hey, what about that?" He said while pointing at random notice board in the corner. Since the senpai of his friend needed one, so he might as well give him then. Besides, he was possible that all the things put in there were just a bunch of useless info that weren't important.
Yamamoto looked at where he was pointing and saw the board as well. He jumped off the horse and quickly run towards the said noticed board.
"Thanks, Murata-kun!" Yamamoto yelled as he dashed towards the place and eyed the notice board. As Yamamoto looked at the board in front of him, he just realized something important. He didn't know the writings in this world! How was he gonna start his quest if he can't even understand the writings.
'Might as well use my guts then!' Yamamoto thought cheerfully. It was in this time that he was completely counting on his guts to choose which paper he was going to pick. As he was staring at the board feeling for his gut, he noticed a paper that had some kind of rewards. He might not know the language but he certainly knew that the paper in front of him has a large of rewards seeing the many zeros there. He grinned. 'Yep, this is the one! My guts tell me so!'
He then took the paper and went back to his kohai that was happily chatting with his friends.
"Hey Murata! Are you sure about this?" Yuri asked in a worried tone. He was looking at Yamamoto who was staring at the notice board with intensity.
"Relax Yuri. I just decided to humor the man. He was so serious that time so I just pointed a board that was coincidentally near us. It's not like there is some kind of quest in that board anyway. That only happens in those RPG games that we sometimes play." Murata said in a care free voice.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. There's nothing dangerous in the notice board. Everything that was put there are completely normal." Conrad said in an assured voice.
"I don't know guys. I feel that something extremely bizarre is gonna happen." Yuri said in a worried voice.
"Well at least that the people had come back to their homes already when that idiot ran away." Wolfram said in an irritated voice.
"Huh? Oh yeah. Now that you mention it, the street is almost deserted." Yuuri said noticing that the people there are now doing whatever they do in the mornings.
"Hey Yu-chan!" A familiar voice called out making Yuri and his companions turned their heads towards the voice.
"Hey senpai? What did you find and what is it that you are holding?" Yuri said in a curious manner while feeling a dread in his stomach.
Yamamoto kept his grin. The others became nervous.
"I found my first quest! Look!" Yamamoto said as he handed Yuri the paper in his hands. "Isn't it amazing huh? This game is great! This would be my very first quest ever. I wonder what I should do?" He yelled.
The others paled. They quickly went over to Yuri to see the paper that was in his hands.
"That wasn't supposed to happen." Murata murmured so no one can hear him.
"Hey Yuri! Read it already? What does it says?" Wolfram asked.
"Uhmm..it says that..Help: We are looking for any man who can kill some wolves that are found in the forest. Also bring any proof that you kill it. You must bring the teeth to us for proof. Your rewards would be 10,000 for 1 wolf that you managed to kill." Yuri said.
After Yuri finished the absurd requests, he and the others paled. They knew that it was a prank for 3 obvious reasons. One: It was put in noticed board. What kind of people puts dangerous requests on a notice board anyway? Two: Said notice board only contains of events that are happening in the kingdom. So it was very impossible for it to be in there. Three: It was a joke. The proof was written below saying that this was only a joke and should not be taking seriously. Honestly, what would happen if an idiot found this and took it seriously huh? Oh right. It was already found.
"Hmm…so I am to defeat wolves huh?" Yamamoto said in deep thought. After a while, his face changes back to his care free self. "I accept! So where's the forest, guys?"
"Hold on a minute senpai! You mean to tell me that you never knew of the quest until now?" Yuri said in a frantic voice. He's already having a hard time understanding his senpai and what goes in his head already.
"Huh? Of course! I may have learned the language because of this weird device but that doesn't mean that I can understand what was written there. I just noticed that one when I had looked at the board." Yamamoto said.
"Then how did you know it was a quest?" Yuri asked.
"My guts told me so! Also, there was numbers in there. I thought that since a quest always have some kind of rewards then it must be it." Yamamoto said with a big grin of his face.
Yuri and the others froze. They couldn't believe that his reason was just because his guts had told him so. Is he sane? What kind of reasoning is that?
"Well, I have to go now Yuri! See you later." Yamamoto said as readied himself to run back outside to complete his first ever quest. He didn't wait for their answers since for some reasons; all of them were still frozen.
It was only a minute later that Yuri realized that Yamamoto was gone and had now gone back outside to deal with the imaginary wolves. Or is it?
"Hey, Conrad? Are there any real wolves in the forest?" Yuri asked in a worried voice.
Conrad frowned. Not a good a sign.
"Now that you mention about this, I was given reports a day ago that there were wolves living in the forest and had attacked many strangers whenever they entered their territory."
Yuri paled. Murata followed. The other two noticed this and paled as well. They have one thought on their minds.
'We have to save that idiot!'
"Let's hurry! We can't let Yamamoto-senpai deal with the wolves!" Yuri shouted as he turned around in his horse and went towards the forest. The others followed him.
A/N: And this is done. Short but next chapter would be long. I assure you next chapter would be all about the imaginary quest. I wonder what they will do in there. The chapters are not edited yet and I'm lazy doing it. Anyway, I wonder what Yamamoto would do in the forest? Hope you enjoy it.
