[@xenon] Nah I don't think Clive's just gonna go off and fight something he doesn't know. He's gonna prolly say 'Ya'll must've hit your heads I reckon' how can Jarim expect a man (who just said he's a fucking farmer who obviously isn't carrying a conventional weapon) to fight? Clive'll help the people but he ain't fighting right this moment lol.

I'll admit Commander Vadim is not the nicest or brightest of them lol.  He's just a townguard captain of a backwater town, probably hates adventurers because they run around with source crystal that makes them OP, makes them rich, makes above the law in a lot of cases. Probably bitter against bigger cities that were built on trade routes, that the rest of the Empire actually gives a shit about.  As for Clive;  Well, Clive just fell out of the sky in a stone sarcophagus, along with 7 others who are all blatantly carrying Source crystals.  Just because he has gloves on (and a bunch of weird-ass foreign clothes, not to mention) doesn't mean Vadim's gonna believe 'he's just a farmer.'

That was my reasoning.

If Clive isn't fighting, that's perfectly fine.  I'll try to think of something for you to do, once I've read your post.  The potential shounen protagonist will be just dandy once he punches a few things, sees he can parry a sword with his magic gloves.  Until then, I can be patient lol
