"Aaaaa , morning already." Jace groaned as he swayed side to side on his bed. Jace was quite tired by the fact that it was the day he was to register for the tournament and get it's details.  Jace was quite optimistic when it came to pursue his duties, he wasn't work oriented. He preferred taking everything slow by his pace it will end up completed.  He always like to take his time when he gets the chance to, but was not the kind to overwork or overload himself.  Jace took a moment on his bed and then switched off the ongoing alarm that sounded in his ears.  When he looked at the time he was amazed.  What! It can't be, 9 am already.  If I waste more time here I'll be late as always  jace thought I'll just be a little late,  hope I'll get a chance for once  jace looked through his window. 

Jace took his time as he woke up arranging his half messed up room. Afterwards he gets into slightly focused mood . Jace wore his black jeans with his white hoodie with a skeleton head on flames drawn on the back. He then placed his dagger on his utility bag. 

I hope am not late for entry  jace thought as he walked out the front door with his bag on his back . He left a well written note for his younger sister on the top of the two seater dinning table,  where she would easily spot it as they lived in a 2 apartment room. After a long two hour walk jace had arrived at his designated location where he saw various youths about his age while some seemed slightly older than him. The others carried different weapons, while others had none on them awaiting for the registration.  On the look of things jace was last on line. Some of the contestants looked a bit tough  compared to Jace while others had strong foundation. Jace had his hopes high for winning against  a lowly rank opponent,  as they were tested for their ranks before registration. Most of those  who showed up was for the spotlight of fame, to be well recognised world wide ,while jace had an impossible dream to be the highest closer ranked ever.

 In this world theere are two main paying job's which are being a closer or a Hunter.  All this depends on the resources you bring back  for example mana crystal and beast cores.

All closers and hunters team are considered so one should only handle what they are capable of , the portal gates are given ranks in oder for the right selection while selecting raids in guilds. As it had advantages it also had grave disadvantages one being death .

As for this year the slot were considered to be the generation of miracles

"Next, get on with it, we don't got all day." An angelic voice of a woman was heard while jace was next on line "The steps of registering are simple first you will place your hand on the glob and just relax after this you're rank would have been established then pick up a form and I'll fill the necessary. " The woman on the desk stated to Jace.

Jace placed his hands on the globe , for a while he felt a breeze going down his spine, then it all brushed off. Jace pickup the form and looked at it so I got to fill this , here goes nothing. Jace thought to himself 

Jace filled the form and gave it to the woman. "Here take a look." The woman handed a card to jace and jace confirmed the details and she took it back to place his rank. She was extremely shocked by jaces rank he was an -E- rank.

"Y-you are an E Rank why bother come to your own death, do you have a death wish." The woman gave jace the card 

Jace looked amused but it was for nothing if you gave it a thought. Jace proceeded in as he was in someone reached out for him. "Hey am Norman ." The voice was heard as an arm extended towards jacevabout to great him. Jace looked rather surprised why would anyone want to know him. He broke the suspence by lifting his right arm to great him.

"Hi am kazimura-Jace kazimura.  Pleasure to meet..."just before jace could finish hus sentence a loud voice could be heard from every corner of the arena saying 

"Helloooo ,to all ladies and gentlemen, I welcome you to this year's tournament.  To all new arrival of closers and hunters this year there's been a change in program. There will be one on one battle against an opponent or a foe . This will give you a glimpse of what risk you'll have to overcome as hunters and closers. You must learn to depend on your skill sets in all types of battle. A message as been sent according to your card check to know your opponent and last but not least the last battle will be juicy stay to find out." Just after the announcement mumbling could be heard in every corner of the arena hall. When jace heard this announcement he rushed to look for his match up.  He was in a daz3 after noticing the harsh reality. 

I-I am the last contender let alone that I am up against a B Rank, who could it be,hope it'll be a healer. Jace was in a fold as his thoughts went off the table. "He-hey are you listening." Norman was trying to get Jace's attention  "o-ooh am sory , I better get going later..." jace said as he left Norman talking to himself.  How dare he I'll show him. Norman thought with an evil grin 

After a long six hour wait it was time for the last battle. 

"May the contestants come forth." As the announcement was said the crowd were on the edge of their seats awaiting the battle to commence.
