Chapter 23 - rats killing spree

As the sun dipped below the horizon, signaling the end of a rigorous training session with the soldiers, Dan knew it was time to dismiss them for the day. With a commanding voice, he announced the conclusion of their training and instructed them to return to their quarters.

 Dan made his way back to his room. but along the way he noticed a maid diligently placing mouse traps in every corner of the manor. Curious, Dan approached her and inquired about her task.

The maid bowed respectfully before responding, "I am arming the traps, sir. We've been having a rat problem lately, and the chef and cooking staff have complained. The city lord ordered me to place traps in every corner of the household to address the issue."

Dan offered his assistance, asking if there was anything he could do to help. The maid nodded gratefully and replied, "Yes, indeed! I still have many traps to set, and I haven't finished even half of them. If you could kindly assist me in completing this task, I would greatly appreciate it."

Dan nodded in understanding and offered his assistance. "Of course, I'd be happy to help. Show me what needs to be done, and I'll get started right away."

The maid smiled gratefully and handed Dan a box of mouse traps. "Thank you, sir. You can start by placing these traps in the remaining corners of the manor

Dan began his task by placing traps in the far left side of the manor, intending to work his way inward. Meanwhile, the maid started from the far right and followed the same trajectory towards the center. As Dan set down the box and selected traps to deploy, he glanced around the room.

Approaching one corner, he carefully positioned a trap and added a small red substance onto it. Unsure if it was poison or some other substance, Dan shrugged off the thought and continued his work, moving to place another trap in a different corner. Suddenly, the sound of a trap snapping shut echoed through the room, catching Dan's attention. 

At the same time, his admin system alerted him with a notification.

Pausing for a moment to process the unexpected event, Dan approached the trap to investigate. There, he found a small rat caught within. Curious, he accessed his admin system to check the details.

With a mischievous grin, Dan's mind raced with the possibilities of earning experience points from his newfound task. "Looks like I can level up from this," he chuckled to himself, feeling a surge of determination coursing through him. With newfound motivation propelling his actions, he briskly set about placing traps in every nook and cranny, determined to earn as many experience points as possible.

As he worked diligently, a notification flashed on his admin system, capturing his attention.

Dan couldn't help but chuckle in disbelief at the unexpected influx of experience points. Suppressing his excitement, he refocused on the task at hand, methodically setting more traps throughout the manor.

Once he had exhausted his supply of traps, Dan approached the maid with a confident grin. "You can take a break now. I'll handle the rest of this pesky problem," he assured her, eager to continue his quest for experience points.

The maid looked at Dan with concern and said, "Are you sure, sir? I don't want to burden you with all the work."

Dan reassured her, saying, "No worries, I'm happy to lend a hand. Besides, I could use the extra experience—I mean, it's the least I can do to help out.

Dan corrected himself the The maid nodded in understanding, accepting Dan's offer. "Alright, just let me know if you need any assistance," she said kindly.

Dan nodded appreciatively. "Thank you, I will," he replied before resuming his task with determination, his mind already calculating the potential experience points he could earn from this unexpected opportunity.

Dan enthusiastically grabbed the box of traps and hurriedly began running around the manor, his focus solely on setting every trap he could find. Lost in the excitement of earning experience points, he completely forgot about the city lord's warning not to roam around past 10 pm.
