Once they had finished breakfast, Marcus and Mrazivy began making their way towards the guild hall that was on the island.
The resort hired plenty of high-level adventurers to patrol the surrounding areas and thus there was a large presence of adventurers on the island.
With only a little digging they had found out that it was considered quite a cushy job since it paid well and there were rarely any incidents to deal with.
Their main jobs were to patrol the edge of the wall to make sure no dangerous creatures slipped in and eliminate any beasts on the islands or in the surrounding waters that grew strong enough to be an active threat to the resort's guests.
The only time there was any danger was on the very rare instance that a truly powerful beast or monster from the depths of the ocean came up and attacked the wall around the resort. But this happened so infrequently that many of the adventurers currently working on the resort had never experienced such an attack.
'It certainly is quite a sizable guild hall. Only slightly smaller than the main one in the capital of Borrelia. But I suppose that since all of the adventurers have personal quarters within the hall it needs to be large.' Marcus thought as he examined the building from afar as they approached.
Soon they had walked up to the building and opened the doors to reveal its interior.
Once inside they noticed that the place was far quieter than the average guild hall and that it was made of bright colored locale wood rather than stone as a usual guild hall would be.
It gave off a very relaxed and beachy vibe which was characteristic of where it was located.
There was also hardly anyone in the place and while it did have a dining and bar area, there was currently no one there.
Only around a dozen people were in the hall including the two receptionists.
Yet just a few moments after Marcus and Mrazivy entered the lax atmosphere in the building disappeared and the ten adventurers that had been lounging around and playing a card game looked at them warily.
Only those that were at the mithril rank or higher were hired to work on the island which meant that every adventurers here was over level fifty.
All of them had enough experience to gauge relative the strength of others even without the use of appraisal skills and could tell that Marcus and Mrazivy were stronger than any other adventurers on the resort
As the place was pretty cushy only those that were happy with where they had gotten or were taking a break from fighting life and death battles actually took the job and so those that were truly strong rarely worked on the resort for long or at all.
One could even say that this was where many adventurers that were pretty much retired came to work. Where they did not have to do much and could live out the remainder of their lives in peace.
'What do their levels look like?' Marcus asked, letting Mrazivy handle the appraising.
Certainly, he could have used his own skill, but her dragon eyes were simply more accurate than his normal skill was, and he did not feel like sifting through the information only for it to be wrong.
'The strongest is at level sixty-one. He is also the oldest pushing a hundred seventy. The others all range from fifty-two at the lowest, to fifty-eight being the next highest. They are not any real threat to us.' Mrazivy told Marcus.
This was good news to hear since it meant they did not need to worry about being attacked and would be able to exude their strength if necessary.
After looking over the guild hall curiously for a few minutes Marcus and Mrazivy headed to the receptionists and introduced themselves.
They were not looking to ruffle any feathers just yet and did not want those present to stay cautious for too long.
"Hello there. We are Marcus and Mrazivy. We are currently staying on the resort as guests, but we are adventurers and were interested in possibly being employed by the resort in the future. In fact, we were actually propositioned by some of the resort staff yesterday when they saw us performing some tricks while surfing and found out that we were high level adventurers." Mrazivy said with her most polite smile.
When they then pulled out their gold adventurers cards the receptionist visibly relaxed since they now knew for certain that they were adventurers and not as high ranked as the others on the island.
Still their levels, or well the fake ones Marcus had set which were in the low fifties, were visible and shocked the receptionists.
"I see you both do have the necessary levels to work on the resort, and if the resort makes a special exception, it should not be a problem even if you are still gold ranked." The receptionist said with a smile.
Marcus and Mrazivy then asked them a few more mundane questions before saying goodbye and going over to the other adventurers who had been keeping watch over them the entire time.
They had heard the entire conversation and could not hide their astonishment when they found out Marcus' and Mrazivy's rank and level.
Naturally they had assumed that they were higher level and ranked than what they actually were which did not seem to make sense to them.
"Hello, we are currently guests on the resort but are professional adventurers like all of you. Do you mind if we join you and pick your brains about the place?" Mrazivy said with her sweetest most innocent smile.
She was really trying her best to seem as harmless and friendly as possible.
"Sure, we do not mind. We were afraid you might have been here to cause some trouble at first, but you both seem to be pretty decent." The old man who was the strongest and oldest of the group said.
With his acceptance the others gave their permission and Marcus and Mrazivy pulled up a couple chairs and joined them in their game.
