[Tips] Adventuring has spawned many legends and sagas that capture the hearts of children everywhere, but can hardly be called a path of honest living.

Our adventurer signup process began and ended with paper—not a single cryptic orb or blood-drawing plaque with numerical stat values in sight. Stories of days past nearly unanimously exposed their heroes’ talents in places like this, but obviously, such technology would twist the basic structure of the world just by virtue of being.

Think about it: automagical appraisal removed the need for any and every kind of testing. Even assuming there were only a handful in existence kept as national treasures by the world’s superpowers, they would certainly be used for imperial service exams. The incompetent would vanish from the upper class’s ranks in an instant.

Or, rather, I suppose the things would be smashed to bits as soon as one got in the way of a powerful oligarch trying to pass down the family title. Many were the ambitious souls trying to put their children into seats of power, and they would not let a nuisance of that magnitude sit in one piece for long.

It appeared that the metrics that made up people were filed away under labels that only the gods could access. I’d assumed as much, since even my blessing only let me peek into my own stats. At one point, I’d looked into whether a sufficiently leveled Keen Eye would be enough to see through someone else’s power level, but quickly realized that accurately knowing my own was already a privilege greater than I could hope for.

But thanks to this way of the world, my self-introduction as a Lv 1 Fighter—just a figure of speech, of course—raised no red flags. Margit had also turned in her forms saying she was a scout, but she didn’t seem quite as inexperienced as me on paper thanks to her experience as a canton huntsman.

With our paperwork settled, we could get right to questing...but didn’t. You see, the considerate ladies running the front desk were kind enough to give us a lesson on all things adventuring first.

One major piece of news was that not everyone operated in fixed groups. In my mind, an adventuring party was composed of three to five unchanging members; in reality, it was a much more flexible affair.

After all, spell-casting mages and miracle-working priests weren’t exactly easy to find.

While capable individuals were sometimes kept on a fixed roster, most people signed up for jobs as needed and simply got to know a few regular teammates as time went on. The usual process involved core units of two or three hiring a few helping hands depending on what the job of the day entailed, just the same as day laborers. Temporary partnerships could become more permanent if those involved really hit it off, but the industry practice was to pass talent around to different groups as they were needed.

That was fair enough. It was plain to see that one would need some kind of divine intervention to put together a full party right off the bat.
