Many people can't understand why anyone would choose to become a mercenary.
For those who can't grasp the concept, becoming a mercenary seems like nothing less than sheer stupidity.
Any sane person wouldn't willingly choose such a path.
Not only parading around with huge lethal weapons, but also facing immense dangers.
The creatures encountered in the forest are likely hostile. If one is incapable of defeating them, then humans will surely be the ones who succumb.
The number of mercenaries who disappear in the forest each year is countless.
Although the Mercenary Guild prefers to use the term "missing" to describe such situations, everyone knows what truly transpired.
Those who have disappeared, their flesh has long been devoured by magical beasts, digested and excreted as steaming waste, while their bones lay scattered around the forest.
Some of their remains might even be used by intelligent magical beasts to decorate their dens.
