The53 Gold!

Needless to say, this was the most expensive food Weed had ever cooked

In the cities, the collective ingredients would cost around 200 Gold to startthe h hunting

The effects given were a clear indicator of the precious resources that went into the food

The aromatic meal hly

At this point Weed took out a bottle

”Here's a bottle to drink”

A drink h it had not been a while for it to be fermented well since it was made here in Todeum

Nevertheless, the Geomchis each took a shot

Pale, Zephyr and other party members did not drink since they were filled with tension

This was the first tirade A difficulty quest

Whether it was the Pegasus or the Unicorn, individually they were still too powerful of ahead to head against such monsters

But they didn't realize that the added tension along with these thoughts would stiffen them further mid battle

They could not drink the drink, because they were already tension filled

In co athered together to fight, they could not ignore the psychological factors of the group

'Everybody seems to be nervous'

Maylon shot a question towards Weed to try to boost theirDo you mind if I ask?”

”No”

”It's about back then in CoM, the Ibanpolten Island's labyrinth”

Weed so place of an Archdeic

It was the nastiest of labyrinths that remained undefeated until Weed!

It was an incomprehensible maze that wouldn't allow Weed another atte it

”So, how did you break into it?”

Maylon was expecting a great answer

She figured if they listened to Weed's adventure for a bit, it'd calm the mood of the party

Weed had a simple answer

”Did you know that that labyrinth had many sewer rats in the basee rano way?”

”I entered it through those sewers”

””

The ansas too simple!

That was too much of a simple solution to come to

Maylon had to throw in another question

”Do you re!

Aflames encompassed him

”That was another monster that Weed niic defense so great that it was expected to be at the level of dragons, it was considered as the worse of monsters; hoould you handle him?”

”I would immerse him in water to kill him”

””

Maylon drooped tremendously after her useless attempts

However, if she had known of the situations behind theible

He had toof everywhere, all to predict where the Archdemon was sealed

Just to locate the nearest entrance to that location, and it was a sewer entrance no less!

The Skeleton King too, after a dozen deaths or so to figured out his weakness, and was finally able to drag him to the lake

The reasons for Weed's successes were through thorough investigation and preparation

Although it was easy to give an i out plenty of the interhout the process

'Regardless, it wasin real life'

To Weed, any quests given weren't that hard

They were h school dropout trying to take care of his sickly grandree, his payroll wasn'tdirty; his pay would get cut immediately from any one of these sin workers

Quests are just si to that of the job rade Special S difficulty quest! (dunno if SS is a real grade or not in this ga to real life, doing quests was a relatively simple shi+ft

Breakfast was over

Weed stood up from his spot

”Are you all ready?”

”Yeah”

The party nodded slowly Regardless of their confidence level, they cannot not go

”Now let's move Everyone are to take care of yourselves”

At last, Weed led the tension filled party through the gates

Within the expanses of the collective castles in Todeuht

They would romp from roof to roof, and sometimes they would whiz by on the plaza

”I'm prepared for this”

Geomchi2 solidly said

He saw the abundance of monsters, but his aim was to pounce them all anyway

This was the reason why the party, more than before, culainst what could be called the ulti what he visualized as objects of terror before hiht

But Weed shook his head

”This isn't it There's a better hunting ground”

”Where at?”

”You'll knoe get there”

Weed crouched closely to the earth, and crept on all fours

Therefore, his party did the sa in unison, crawled on the ground

Ppalppalppalppal!

All were crawling at formidable speed

It used twice the a, but everyone tried their best to keep up

”Heokheok! Well Weed ni onward, because he was the Merchant, really hen it comes to combat abilities

It was a steep price to pay for his high amount of Wisdoe, Wisdom, and Charisained a bit of Sta around

Mapan asked while relaxed

”I don't knoe have to zigzag from alley to alley”

Weed absolutely did not take the ate, he passed through an alleyhere there were plenty of empty boxes stacked on one another

He only used the extre those were there

Weed spoke in a low voice

”If you look carefully at the behavior of animals, there are a lot to learn”

”Huh?”

”They knowlife, so they have a lot es over you”

”So nohat kind of ani to copy for survival?”

”cockroach”

””

Not a lion or a tiger, Weed was going to learn fro like the insect with the highest rate of survivability

Syaysyasyaysyasyak

The two ars moved very quickly

His headantenna

His rolling eyesmonster

Fortunately, thanks to effort put into this, they did not encounter any monster and were able to arrive to their destination

The first destination was the vampire Tori's black castle!

The party entered the castle and made it safely to the basement

With the tension dwindled down a bit, Pale asked as he took a relaxed breath

”Whehat is this castle?”

Weed replied simply

”This is where I found Tori, and this is also his hos, please take out your bows”

Geomchi, the instructors, and all the practitioners took out the overly large bows they received fro about this?”

Geoest bow

Then froot ss!

Only after then that Pale and Maylon understood why

The bows see them difficult to use; but that would not ht within a castle

It'd be an inconvenience to use during co with a shi+eld, they will be able to survive

Weed looked at his dirt covered body, then removed his Talroke's Arhtning speed

”Ah so Please take out your shi+elds”

The Geomchis each removed the shi+elds that could cover their entire body that they have equipped

It was hard to say whether the shi+elds' forood or not

It can deflect onco arrows from their enemies when equipped, also increased their defense by at least 50

Proble with the inability to equip swords, their Agility reduced drao, shi+ne armor, shi+ne shi+eld!”

Exercised the Blacksues' weapons were grinded and arh these means

”It's over Then Irene niainst the wicked and evil, please let his strength reach its peak, Bless!”

Weed and the Geoht divine radiance

The Unicorns and Pegasus broke their ways into the cellar through the door

Due to the fact they were creatures ic was used within a certain range
