Jack said with a calm but somewhat intelligent expression, "If you guys want to team with me, you must be able to endanger your very own lives for me. Are you still sure you want to team?".
Both of them still agreed. Jack replied it is finished, "It is finished, we are officially a team".
Jack said, "Let's vote for where we should explore. Your choices are either a sect or clan".
Jack voted for a sect, Seno voted for a sect and Gara voted for a pretty weird thing... his mother. It turns out that his mother was bedridden and she was only one step away from death.
He said she had a curse that continuously took her energy and life force away. The curse could only be healed if someone stronger than her came to fix it.
But the issue was she was a very mighty warrior and a faithful servant of the empire. She could face armies with a single fist.
Jack decided that the problem was too crucial to be neglected and it had to be attended immediately.
*6 hours later*
Jack was in Gara's mother's room. Jack had told all of them to leave and it was too important for anyone to disturb him.
Jack sort of entered her soul and what he saw was a vile beast. When it saw Jack, it sensed the power of a god.
It immediately bowed and said with a chickenhearted voice, "Oh, great, mighty and wise sage. What do you want with me?".
"You know what I want... BE GONE YOU DESPICABLE MONSTROSITY!!!", roared Jack with a lovely grin.
The monster jumped out of the soul and scampered away. Gara ran towards the room and said, "Mama, my dear and generous mama... please don't die".
Jack woke up and said, "It's fine the monster has run away". Seno told them that she wanted to go to her sect... now.
*14 hours later*
The three of them arrived at a navy blue gate with elaborate carvings of phoenixes on the gate. The gate was very lofty and rugged and it was protected by two brawny men.
Jack said, "Uh... hi, so what now?". The guards gazed at Jack like an ant and made jest of him.
Seno glowered at them and said, "Ahem". The two guards looked at Seno with stupefaction.
The guards shouted, "PRINCESS... WE DIDN'T KNOW THAT YOU WERE HERE!".
Seno said, "LET THEM IN... NOW!!!". One of the guards escorted them into the sect.
Seno walked to the other guard and whispered in his ears, "The boy that you were laughing at can annihilate this sect with his eyes shut".
The guard shivered and said, "Sorry, young mistress". Seno snorted at him and walked through the gate.
Jack entered the guests' hall and was treated quite well. Jack said he wanted to visit the leader of the sect.
The cleric said it wasn't that easy to just have an appointment with the sect leader. Jack told them to check their list.
They saw that all the appointments were delayed for just Jack. Jack winked at the cleric and walked towards the sect leader's mansion.
The sect leader received Jack with open arms and even threw an extravagant banquet for him alone. Jack said, "I didn't come here to dine... I came here because of your daughter".
The sect leader introduced himself as Gail Gi. He was the father of Seno.
Gail said with surprise, "Wait... you came here to wed my daughter". Jack laughed continuously until he nearly started coughing up blood.
"Of course not I'm only 17 years old... but I will need your daughter for a few years", said Jack with an explicit face.
"How long are a few years?", worriedly replied Gail.
"Maybe 3 to 5 years", Jack said.
"For what reason?", Gail replied.
"To explore the world and gain a lot of power", answered Jack with a cunning but ingenious voice.
"Well, please... I want you to protect my daughter with your life", said Gail.
"I can't swear I will but I'll try to", said Jack.
"Thank you!", said Gail with a cheerful voice.
Then the trio set off to explore their bizarre world. They decided to vote again for where to go next.
It turned out that no one really wanted to go anywhere so they decided that Jack should tell them where to go next.
Jack decided to visit a ruin. He had many options because there were more than a trillion ruins in Beryl.
The trio trekked to a lakdvoc ( A lakdvoc was a place where you could search for ruins ). They finally got to the lakdvoc.
The name of the lakdvoc was Glory Seen Lakdvoc. Jack chuckled at the name of it.
They stepped into the lakdvoc's door and were astounded to see nearly a thousand adventurers.
Jack ambled to a register, where he was asked multiple irrelevant questions which he quite hated.
*25 minutes later*
Jack walked towards his companions and said, "Guys, we're going to a ruin called Shuen no Takaramono which means Demise Treasures".
Gara and Seno cheered.
They walked through a portal and felt a bit woozy from the teleportation, they awoke in a cave-like place where they could see numerous adventurer parties battling against each other.
Jack could see there was a mound of treasures lying there in the middle of the cave, the heap of treasure was about 45 feet tall.
It was like no one could see the heap of treasure. Even Gara and Seno couldn't see it.
Jack simply walked to the middle of the battlefield and stole all the treasure. He walked to the other two and said, "The job is finished, let's get out of here, guys".
They walked out of the portal and the ruin self-destructed. Everybody glimpsed at the trio and glared at them greedily.
Jack walked to the register and said, "Finito... I know, I know, the deal is to give your lakdvoc 30% of the treasure".
Jack threw some treasure on the slab and walked out of the lakdvoc. Gara and Seno kept on asking, "How did you get the treasure so quickly?".
Jack thoroughly answered, "Immortality... that's all I would tell you, fellas". Immediately Jack uttered those words, the two comprehended what he had done.
