Rise of the Omnimage

"95% huh? Freaking show off!" Came the shout as Ky was getting his initiate license unblocked.

Kyrain turned around seeing Sebastian, Tobias, and Elijah coming in. Ky scratched his head with an embarrassed smile.

"Yep, missed one." He said to the group.

"You getting ready to head out and get to work for the guild?" Elijah asked.

"Yeah, my mom already put in the request specifically for me. She always knew it would be helpful having me around, but when I helped her get patients treated the other day, she absolutely wanted me around. She also said, I could really work on my path by coming up with new ways to use my powers." Kyrain explained as the others presented their pass tokens to get their own initiate licenses unblocked.

Once they were all unblocked and they could legally take the initiate jobs, they headed over to the screens.

They all stepped up, placed their license on a upraised portion of the front of the screen until they heard the beep.

Good afternoon Initiate Kyrain Ekart!

The jobs went on down the list for a while until he saw what he was looking for.

37. Medical Assistant: Nullification [Details]

Kyrain selected details on the job. His mom said she would put in the request when he said that he was interested in doing more work that helped people.

She was ecstatic being able to have him work along side her, that she didn't hesitate getting it cleared with human resources and finances to bring him on as her assistant in treating the harder cases.

[Yes] [No]

Kyrain accepted the job by touching the screen on the "Yes" button.

You have accepted initiate job 37.

Another transaction?

[Yes] [No]

Kyrain pressed "No" which reset the screen. Turning back he saw the others were still not done yet so he waiting patiently for them.

After a few more minutes they all completed one after the other.

Elijah got a job with the hospital as well. Turns out his dad, Alex, works there on the surgery floor with a blood based healer path. He wouldn't be working with his dad, but would be handling minor training injuries where his healing skills could be used and developed further under the careful watch of the hospital.

Sebastian took a job with the guild as a training understudy. He would come to the guild every morning and work as an assistant for the guild trainers. As an added job perk they would train him in combat, aether use, and other skills on top of cores which was an awesome gig.

Tobias selected a job with the Crafters hall. They specialized in weapons and armor made from monster parts. He would be helping with the heat and forging processes. With his path, he could shrug off the heat and damage regardless of how strong the forges got. He could really nurture his path there as a Juggernaut.

"We still meet here once a week to do training as a team right?" Tobias asked once they were done showing eachother their jobs.

"Yes sir!" Ky said as the others nodded. "We have a solid adventuring team and in a few years, we will be able to take on missions as a team. Weekly we meet up so that we don't have a problem later integrating new skills and abilities."

They made some small talk and plans to meet here and there, but eventually they all set off including Kyrain to head home to get ready for the next day. His mom wouldn't be home yet, she didn't get home until late afternoon, but he would be seeing enough of her in the coming years.

Do you wish to advertise?

For this, Kyrain selected the first option. The day before each of them had met up and determined he would have the administrative task of setting up the team.

You have selected the following for your team

Leader: Kyrain Ekart (Self: Will automatically accept team invitation.

Tobias Patterson

Sebastian Rose

Elijah Rayner

Confirm and send invitation?

[Yes] [No]

Kyrain selected yes.

He returned to the main menu then went down into jobs which had the new jobs.

- Junior Adventure job requests

1. Security Jobs [expand for locations]

2. D rank monsters EXTERMINATION [Expand for locations]

3. Material Retreival jobs [Expand for job listing]

4. Low risk job requests [Expand for job listing]

Kyrain selected the second option as the guys had agreed. They wanted to get out into the Junior adventurer areas and start exterminating monsters.

Extermination

1. Zone 1: Monsters in this area are D rank of the FIRE variety

2. Zone 2: Monsters in this area are D rank of the WATER variety

3. Zone 3: Monsters in this area are D rank of the Earth Variety

4. Zone 4: Monsters in this area are D rank of the WIND variety.

Zone 5: Monsters in this area are D rank with (1) C rank of all primary varieties.

They had agreed to start with something simple.

Kyrain selected zone 3 and accepted the extermination request. Which gave their team a quota of 10 of each beast for a total of 20 monsters. It paid 20 cores and they even got to keep the ones they earned. So 10 cores per person for a job completion. They had done their homework already and knew that the area they were headed to had mostly Pebble boars, and Stonescale Armadillos.

Their defenses would be pretty high, but offense wise, they just needed to worry about the tusks of the boars and the claws of the armadillos and the scales it could shoot.

Content with everything, Kyrain headed out and went home to rest up for tomorrow. They had been training together as a team since they were 12 and 13, now tomorrow they would finally start hunting monsters as actual adventurers and he was excited.
