In the morning we met up with a merchant as we have decided and continued our journey nothing worth mentioning happened in the next two days other than some attacks from some weak and dumb monsters I dealt with them as swiftly as possible, by the end of second day we have already reached the city of hiris, I bid everyone from Jade champions good bye after I got the reward though they did guide me to safe and cheap inn I thanked them for one last time as they were going to wait here and perfor the quest in this city until they get another quest or escort mission to tthe city of policia, so they won't come with me to other city that I is my next destination after resting in the inn for the night I went straight to the guild in the morning, I still have more then 40 gold coins so I could buy some more books that could help me in learning lot more magic types and there applications and to my surprise there were 2 more books that were written by same author, the two books
"Application of elemental magic" and "limitless nature of magic", I was really happy that I got this books after searching around and not finding anymore books I decided to buy them the books here were even more costly costing me half of my savings at 20 golds for both the books, it was already afternoon by the time I was done searching for the books, so I looked around for any quest l could do until next town on the list and to my delight there was emergency quest posted here for anyone D-rank or above adventurers it seems town of sharpton which just happens to be next town I have to go to is under attack from the monsters of adjacent dark forest, and they have posted the quest in all adjacent towns, accepted amount of monster is about 200 in numbers due to some disturbance, it seems that the scout on the mission had to risk his life to get this information so it is likely true as the scout is renowned B-rank Adventurer , and as that was his hometown he decided to use his savings as well as other fundings of town to post the request in other towns, if your asking why isnt military of country isn't doing anything it simple noble doesn't want to send his personal forces out because of threat of kingdom of waris not that far from this town really most nobles in any world are selfish he won't send his personal military as it will decrease his protection. as there are likely someone will die.
I was thinking if it is really alright for me to go there, as my life would be at risk, I didn't really want to go there but then I have to stay in this City untill that situation settles itself, but something in me refused to run away, I knew I could help them, so without doubt I would do it to help people in the need, I need to otherwise my morals won't survive in this world.
With resolution I decided to take this request after the receptionist was done processing it I left, while the processing receptionist tried to stop me from going there as it was really dangerous to go there right now because of the number of monsters that have attacked it wasn't even known if it was possible to enter that town right now, it was likely they were already attacked.
But I decided to check it out if I could help without endangering my own life I will do it and if it is too dangerous I will just use bit and hide technique to lessen the number of monsters, and if dangerously strong monsters appear I will run away.
Deciding that I increased my speed the town of sharpton was one day away by normal speed but if I hurry I can reach the town by the night though I decided to take many breaks so I don't exhaust myself before I reach the town.
Just like I expected I could see the town gates and to my relief there weren't any monsters there even after using search magic I couldn't detect any monsters at all.
I decided that I should go to the town before anything unexpected happened, after I told the guard about the reason I am here and my rank he seemed genuinely thankful I said it was for quest money, as the reward even for D-rankers is quite high, but he just smiled at me warmly and allowed me to enter, he did say that I should go to the guild before going anywhere else so I did as he recommended and after asking around for sometime I was standing in front of the guild without thinking of anything else I entered the guild despite it being rather late many Adventurer's were present in the guild hall.
Everyone was really tense but it was expected due to the situation they are facing it would've been weird if they weren't tense I approached the receptionist.
"Hello, I am here to participate in the monster stampede that is likely to happen in a day or two."
I said, a surprised expression appeared on her face and she shook her head in an exasperated tone.
"You can't! It's too dangerous, even Mr. Mark and guild master had decided only D-rankers and above adventurers can enter the defence of the town while others will help with protecting civilians while retreating in the worst case possible."
The receptionist explained, but I just showed her my guild card surprise could be seen on her face clearly, but a happy smile also appeared on her face.
"There are only 10 D-rank , 4 C-rank and 2 B-rank Adventurer, I was worried but if some more people like you from our of town appears then situation may be yet salvagable, I will tell guild master about additional D-ranker!"
Saying that she boltes towards the second floor I could only stand there awkwardly.
