13 Another Settlement Needs Your Help (1/2)
After putting all the chickens into my spacial dimension I started to look through the stuff of the dead guy. In one of his pockets was a guild card stating that he was a B Rank adventurer who's class was Mercenary. His stats where averaged around 220 so he was in the middle of all B Rankers. In another pocket was a ton of gold, silver, and copper.
Finishing up with the dead guy, people where slowly starting to come out of there houses. Upon seeing the dead guy, their eyes lit up with happiness and they started running to other houses to knock on their doors.
Eventually a old man with a cane came walking up to me slowly.
”Young men. You have done us a great service and we thank you.”
He said while trying to bow down awhile saying this but couldn't do it as he was to old.
”Don't hurt yourself while trying to thank us, just do yourself a favor and use this money to fix whatever he did. I'm guessing he was somewhat of a bully right?” I asked while handing him the money that I just got from the dead mercenary.
Upon seeing the gold his eyes started glimmering with greed for the money and he snatched it surprisingly quickly for someone his age who was just having trouble bowing down.
'Guess seeing this much money can make anyone greedy eh?' I thought to myself
”Is there anything else you might need help with while my friend and I are here?” I asked
The old man just stood there thinking until he said, ”We don't really need that much help as you've given us enough money to fix a lot of our problems. Some of our neighboring settlements though could use your help.”
Hearing this I knew what I had to do.
I turned to Chris and with a straight face said, ”I heard of another settlement that needs our help. Here, I'll mark the location on your map.”
The old man just stood there in confusion at what I was doing. Chris however, had read all of my memories so he knew what I was doing. All he did was stare at me for a couple of seconds and then walk away.
'Ahhh, good ol' 2015 memes.'
Getting back to the topic at hand I diverted my attention back to the old man and said, ”I will help any other towns on my way to Camelot.” and quickly adding in, I said, ”I have a very important quest that I need to do” I lied
I know lying is bad and all but if it get me out of a Preston Garvey quest then I'll gladly do it.
The old man nodded his head in understanding and said that we where free to do what we wanted in town as long as it didn't harm anyone or anything.
Leaving to go find Chris after finishing up everything with the old man, I found him in a tavern discussing something with the bar keep.
”Chris... Chris... CHRIS.”
”ERIC FOR HEAVENS SAKE JUST SHUT THE HELL UP.”
”Jeez, just meet me at Camelot when you're done then. Bye.” I said halfway through the door
I don't know why Chris hated the old meme so much but I'll leave him to have some free time by himself. The journey to Camelot shouldn't take much longer then a couple of days so that should be enough time.
Leaving through the opposite direction of where we came in I continued on my journey for roughly about a day and a half until I got bored. Being bored made me go back into my video game center and have my body passively go to the location.
At first only a week passed...
Then a month...
