After leaving his hometown, Noya started his journey in the participant ship. He found a lot of people on the ship. All of them are here to participate in the Guild Selection Exam. This selection is the largest selection exam. It is held in every 5 years. People all over the country, train and study hard about the Cavles and how to defeat them. When they’re ready, they wait for this selection exam. Every participant must be 15 to 20 years old. In thousands of competitors, only the promising 60 fighters are chosen. Those chosen become the members of the Reaper’s Guild. This exam takes place in 5 different locations. Those are Know-Out City, C***-Cross City, Opera High, Samuel Park and War Castle.
Noya’s selection will be in the Know-Out City. With a smile, Noya asked the ship captain where they would arrive at the location. The captain replied with a smile, when they will arrive, it will be morning and from there Noya has to take a bus which will go to the main arena. Noya thanked him. Then Noya started exploring the other competitors. Most of them were busy preparing themselves. Noya then asked a participant why he was taking the exam. But, he replied with anger, “Get lost, kid!”. Most of them were older than Noya, maybe they failed the last selection. But, that didn’t matter to Noya.
After a couple of moments, Noya saw a strange man with a hat. He asked the strange man why he is taking the exam. He replied, “For nothing! Just out of curiosity”. Noya was shocked but then Noya replied, ” My father was an honorable and brave fighter of the Reaper’s Guild. He left me at my aunt’s house and carried out his missions for the guild. That’s why I want to be a member of the Reaper’s Guild” Hearing this, the strange man stared at him.
Noya: My name is Noya Bayakurai. What’s your name?
Strange man: It’s Kenma Kenjo
In the meantime, a small group of thieves were planning to steal other people’s properties in the dead of night.
It’s night now, everyone is sleeping. The thieves started their operation. They kept stealing other’s accessories and money. When they’re about to flee, Kenma found them. When they noticed Kenma found them stealing, they laughed and said, “You’re awake, huh? But you can’t kill us” Finishing the dialogue, they rushed towards Kenma with a sharp knife. But Kenma dodged it. Hearing the chaos, Noya woke up and rushed to the fighting spot. He told the thieves to stop. There was a thick stick behind him. Noya took it and threw it at high speed. Three of the thieves were affected by sticks. Noya then rescued the stolen things. But, one of them threatened him saying, “You can’t catch us, if you do.” He took out a bomb . Then the thief said, “If I die, I will go with everyone“.
