Chapter 124 - Chapter 124 Info On The War Between Guilds

After Opal left Thomas walked towards Peri and Ceil as they asked "Are you alright?" Thomas stared at them and said "Apart from the blood I'm covered in I'm fine." Peri walked towards Thomas and lifted one of his arms as she asked "What happened to your limbs?" Thomas stared at her and said "I'm not sure what your talking about." Ceil walked towards him and grab his other arm as she said "She broke most of your bones, right?" Thomas nodded and said "Yup she pretty much shattered them." Peri poked at Thomas's arm and asked "Then why are you in perfect condition?" Ceil stared at him and said "She definitely blasted a hole or two in you but now they're gone." Thomas sighed and said "You know that fruit she gave me, it temporarily makes it so the consumer can't die." Peri glared at Thomas and said "You can at least explain how it works." Thomas stared at her and said "I don't know it works either." Peri and Ceil let go of his arms and asked "Is this thing normal for you?" Thomas shrugged and said "The whole dying thing is pretty common but Opal showing up is more like a rare occasion." Peri and Ceil stared at him and asked "Is almost dying really that common for you?" Thomas stared at her and said "Well I guess not really dying although when I arrived in this town I was almost killed." Ceil stared at him and asked "Just how strong was the guy that attacked you?" Thomas stared at her and said "The guy was actually pretty average but he did use a potion." Peru and Ceil took a step away from Thomas and said "We'll get started on our training." Thomas stared at them and walked towards his jacket as he said "I'll go get this blood off of me." Peri and Ceil stared at him and said "We'd be more worried if you didn't bother to get the blood off of yourself." Thomas picked up his jacket and teleported away. As Thomas reappeared in front of the bathhouse he said "Let's get this blood off of me." As Thomas was about to walk in he felt a hand grab him by the shoulder. Thomas sighed and said "I know this smell, what do you want?" Sarah stared at him and said "I want you to join the guild and help fight our battles." Thomas pushed her hand off of his shoulder and said "I have no interest in fighting your battles nor joining your guild, so find someone else." Sarah turned Thomas around and grabbed him by both of his shoulders as she said "Work with us and you will gain status and strength." Thomas shrugged and said "Neither of those interest me so if you could let me go and get this blood off of me I'd appreciate it." Sarah let go of his shoulder and said "Fine then by all means allow me to bathe with you and discuss what you will gain by joining us." Thomas glared at her and said "I'm not joining your guild." She stared at him and said "If you join us you can have as many women as you please." Thomas stared at her annoyed and said "What part of I don't want to join did you not understand?" Sarah grabbed Thomas's hand and began to drag him into the bath house as she said "We will discuss what you want in here." Thomas sighed and said "Well I suppose this is progress." As they entered the water Thomas tied a piece of fabric around his eyes as Sarah asked "What guild were you fighting?" Thomas stared at her and said "I wasn't fighting any guilds." Sarah stared at him and said "Nonsense you must've fought a guild to be covered in that much blood." Thomas stared at her and said "All of this blood is mine." Sarah stared at him and said "You have no cuts or nothing, how is that possible?" Thomas put his head back and said "Telling you would be pointless." Sarah stared at him and said "Fine if you won't tell me that can you at least explain why your covering your eyes?" Thomas nodded and said "I've heard that some people don't like to be seen naked so I do this just in case." Sarah stared at him and said "Okay You've told me that so now tell me why you won't join our guild?" Thomas yawned and said "It all sounds pointless, you'd probably expect me to dedicate my life to getting stronger and require me to attack others based on a small detail." Sarah stared at him and said "We don't require you to do any of that stuff." Thomas glanced at her and said "Then tell me what does it require?" Sarah stood up and said "We only require you to pass a test of strength every now and then to be sure that your improving." Thomas day there and said "I've heard enough." Sarah stared at him and said "Then will you join?" Thomas sat there quietly as Sarah sat down beside him and said "If that offer isn't enough then I will offer up my services to you as well." Thomas continued to sit there quietly as Sarah said "We need you to help us fight, so I am willing to give myself to you but in return you must help us." Sarah stared at Thomas and asked "Are you going to say anything?" Sarah grabbed the blindfold and took it off as she asked "Are you even listening?" As she took the blindfold off she seen that he was sleeping. Sarah sighed and said "I was in the middle of explaining our guild's crisis and he fell asleep." Sarah pushed him over knocking him underwater as she said "This should get your attention." Thomas quickly raised his head out of the water in a panic and asked "What happened?" Sarah stared at him and said "If you don't help our guild we'll all be wiped out." Thomas stared at her and said "If you can't win the fight find someone else, I can understand that." Thomas stared at her and said "I'll help you but only because I'd like to keep casualties to a minimum." Sarah smiles and said "I am forever in your debt." Thomas stared at her and said "However I still ain't joining your guild." Sarah stared at him and said "That's fine because now our guild has a fighting chance." Thomas glared at her and said "Also don't tell any of my other party members about this." Sarah nodded and said "You helping us shall be a secret." Thomas stared at her and said "Wait where did my blindfold go?" Sarah quickly covered herself and said "Quit staring." Thomas turned away confused as he asked "Where did the blindfold go?" Sarah looked in her hand and seen the fabric as she tossed it onto his shoulder and said "It's there." Sarah turned away and mumbled "I might've asked him why he had it on but if I don't have to give myself to him then I'd rather not." Thomas put the blindfold back on and sat down as he said "The blindfold must've come loose when I was sleeping so that's my bad." Sarah quit covering herself and said "Most people wouldn't have the decency to cover their eyes." Thomas put his head back and said "Yeah well most people don't have half the problems I do when going from town to town." She stared at him and asked "What kind of problem would cause you to wear a blindfold in the bath house?" Thomas turned towards her and said "I can't read so I normally go in the middle on since it's always neutral territory for both genders." Sarah stared at him and asked "What kind of idiot can't read?" Thomas sighed and said "I'm in the process of learning." Sarah stared at him and said "So if I'm searching for you the baths would be the easiest place to search for you?" Thomas sighed and said "Well no you can find me at the inn but I'd prefer you didn't do that." Sarah stared at him and said "Then you should know that we are currently fighting against three different guilds." Thomas put his head back and said "I'm aware of yours and the demi humans, I helped out a guild recently as well but I don't recall the name of it." Sarah nodded and said "The demi human's just called theirs the demi human faction." Thomas glanced at her and said "Are they really that uncreative?" Sarah nodded and said "They are a minor issue and can be handled without your help." Sarah stared at Thomas and said "We need you to take out the guild called Pria's Retribution." Sarah sat there and said "They have five leaders if you can get rid of them they won't be able to launch any attacks on the other guilds." Thomas stood up and said "Five leaders of the Pria's Retribution, sounds easy but I'm just gonna go out on a limb and say that they're all extremely powerful." Sarah said "They are indeed powerful but I believe you have what it takes." Thomas took his blindfold off and said "I'll work on that then."
