The price of resources had naturally increased as as near approaching

No one expected that the unrest would be this serious and would last this long As a result, everyone had started collecting all kinds of resources like stocks, and took it as a form as an investment

Garen went to at least ten rice shops in the inner city He eventually found a cheaper shop and used all of his hard earned twenty thousand rue scale battle occurred, society at large would not be able to harvest rice, and the price would ultimately inflate to an unbelievable amount

These invest time, and he would be able to earn at least ten times more

Garen rented a warehouse at the deserted part of the inner city and placed all the rice he had, called green rice there This rice was extreh vitality, which meant that it was very easy to reproduce them This was the main reason why they were so cheap When the war occurred, this green rice would be very popular ah satiety This ular rice

Garen feltle around in Iron Tank City Vanderman and the Trejons Household were protected by the RAL and survived the first world war The Trejons’the second world hen the Three Heroes were defeated and the RAL had collapsed

There were still about a year before the crisis occurred and Garen decided to use this time to train himself

There was still one month left before the war spreaded, and the Obscuro Society officially e-scale mobilization Garen decided to use this ood plan

After he finished dealing with the green rice, Garen rested for two days, and took two solo investigative quests Both were relatively safe and did not have a high reward It was only two thousand ru

Further the quests He did, however, encounter a few General-class coirl, as as fat as a water bucket, placed a cup of beer, which was about the size of a water ladle, onto the table The beer rocked about as a huge amount of foam bubbled to the top A fully bearded custoed it doithoutat the adjacent table, instead choosing to quietly cut into his medium well steak with a small knife

He sat at the quest hall that was filled with lights that reseinner-level adepts There were the high pitched sounds of beer bottles clashing into one another, people whispering a about and even people enquiring for information from the bouncer

The air was filled with a mixture of the putrid smell of alcohol and vomit It was horrendously nauseous

The War Guild was co Guild It didn’t matter to the War Guild whether one was a Luminarist or a commoner, they only cared about the completion rate of the quests There would only be business here when there ars and would be completely deserted if there’s none

The quests here were all high reward high risks quests The lowest ranked quests that could be found here was the very risky quest of fighting against forative quests were nowhere to be seen

Garen had been here for the past few days, scouting for the quest that suited him the most He had already co Guild, and all of the, and he didn’t have the opportunity to go against a Luminarist

Hence, he cairl with the waist the size of a bucket walked over and slahtly crue of Garen’s vision She i down the piece of paper

Garen picked it up, read it and quietly placed it inside his pocket

The quest was very simple It was to hunt a serial killer who had killed thirteen aristocrats from households in the inner city The enemy was a form one toteue from the Obscuro Society’s outer circles The Royal Alliance had started to invest a lot of , and the Obscuro Society’s outer circle was one of the targets

Garen wiped his lips with the handkerchief and stood up after he quietly ate the last piece of his steak

"No 25478 Has been revoked" A petite beer girl shouted from the quest counter as she wrote down the battle level and the latest quest onto the blackboard

The battle level represented the highest level quest which the user had succeeded and it also represented the difficulty of this quest The last quest was the quest where the numbered candidate failed It was only when the death of the candidate was confirmed that the candidate’s number could be revoked

This way, people would know the risk of the quest that was previously overlooked and prevent any weaklings frohly risked quest

"It’s Lumba I can’t believe he’s dead" "There’s at least ten numbers that have been revoked in thisworse"

The hall was filled with discussions

Garen stood up and left the hall with the quest receipt

He didn’t have to do any investigation as the quest receipt contained the overall intel he needed in detail The only thing he was required to do was to kill the target at the given time and location

This was siovernment, The War Guild itself was the enforcer of the underworld The employer of the War Guild was called the Hound, as in the Hounds of the Royal Alliance of Luminarists

A day later 326pht, there was a small alley in the residential area of the outskirts of the city

Garen silently stared at therobes with a white scarf on top of his head It was a classic arabian attire, which was also what a ht colored shirt and scarf could reflect

It was a brown man with blue eyes He had very deep eye sockets, and a pair of eyes covered in blood vessels He looked so tired, as if he hadn’t rested for multiple days
