Chapter 239 It’s Garvit
As the murmurs of the townsfolk grew louder, everyone in the Quest Guild was drawn outside to gawk at the imminent arrival of Captain Garvit.
Branch Chief Pamela sighed in admiration, "True to the reputation of Emerald City. They even have a Pegasus mount. Garvit is certainly making a grand entrance."
Heloise was entranced by the Pegasus's white wings, murmuring about how she would grow a pair of white angel wings once she awakened the power of the Nefarious Tiger King.
Then, at Heloise's suggestion, the three of them also went outside to see why Captain Garvit had arrived in Delis Town in such a grand manner.
.
Garvit rode his Pegasus, landing on the street.
Seeing the crowd around him with starry-eyed admiration, Garvit felt somewhat embarrassed.
If it were the old Garvit, he would definitely have laughed heartily and greeted everyone at this moment, then boasted about his own fame as "Lord Garvit".
But now, Garvit had found himself. He not only did not enjoy this glory of being the center of attention, but he also felt as if he were on pins and needles, wishing he could slip away as soon as possible.
He knew very well that his own strength was far from enough, and this Pegasus mount beneath him was actually the asset of the Emerald City Cavalry Corps. He was simply taking advantage today.
If it weren't for receiving an urgent report from the Pegasus messenger halfway back to Emerald City, Garvit would not be willing to ride such an eye-catching mount.
"Excuse me, everyone, make way, please."
Garvit dismounted and instructed the Pegasus to wait in place while he prepared to go to the Quest Guild to find Branch Chief Pamela.
Coincidentally, as he walked over, he ran into Branch Chief Pamela who had just come out.
"Long time no see, Captain Garvit."
"What a coincidence, Branch Chief Pamela, I was just about to find you."
Garvit had met Pamela a few times. The last time they met, she was not yet stationed in Delis Town, but was the coach of the archer team in Emerald City Cavalry Corps.
Seeing Garvit now, Pamela was a bit uncomfortable. In her impression, Garvit was still that ostentatious and vain man.
"Um, Captain Garvit... your manner of speaking... what's the matter?" Pamela was trying to ask in the most polite way possible. However, Garvit himself did not know how to explain.
"It's a long story, anyway, let's go in first?"
Garvit gestured to Pamela towards the crowd around them, and Pamela understood, turning around to take Captain Garvit inside. However, she suddenly found that Felix and Heloise had disappeared at some point.
— (Hmm? Where did those two go? I was planning to introduce them to Garvit...)
"What's wrong, Branch Chief Pamela?"
"Ah, nothing, let me take you in."
.
While Pamela wasn't paying attention, Tyler took Heloise and quietly slipped over to the Pegasus, perfectly hidden from Garvit's view by the crowd.
Tyler certainly didn't want to be publicly subjected to Garvit's one-knee salute again. If he said "Lord Banning" again, his new name "Felix" would have been for nothing.
Right now, rather than meeting with Garvit, Tyler was more interested in this so-called "Pegasus".
This was his first time seeing a flying mount since he came to the world of Prison Star.

(So Pegasus is a tamed demon. It seems this world has the skill to tame demons.)
Tyler looked at the Pegasus with interest, and Heloise was even bolder. She directly went up and gently touched its wings. It seemed she really liked the Pegasus's pair of wings.
However, after watching for a while, Tyler took Heloise away. He believed that Garvit would not stay at the Quest Guild for too long.
.
Soon after entering the Quest Guild, Garvit was approached by a muscular man of similar
Stature.
"Nice to meet you, Lord Garvit. I've long been hearing your name. I'm Babur from Madison Town, and I'm also participating in the 'Labyrinth - Aqua Nest' raid."
The so-called Babur reached out to greet Garvit.
Unlike Garvit, who was garbed in full armor, Babur was only wearing light leather armor, with a spiked shoulder guard on his left side. A massive axe with a ghostly face was slung over his back. The remnants of blood splatter on the axe bore testimony to the numerous battles it had seen.
— (Ah, he's a "Great Axe Warrior".)
Based on his intuition and past experience, Garvit estimated Babur to be around Level 40 of the second tier.
Under normal circumstances, Garvit would have dismissed him without a second thought. Yet, he now politely shook the man's hand.
"It's a pleasure, Babur. I look forward to learning from you if we get the opportunity to fight alongside each other."
What was meant as a courteous remark was taken seriously by Babur.
"Absolutely, I will definitely strive for the opportunity to be in the same team as you!"
Hearing this, Garvit finally understood Babur's intentions and realized that Babur was indeed a man of some ability.
The fact that Babur knew he would participate in the Labyrinth Raid and that the teams would be divided indicated that his sources of information were quite remarkable.
"Good luck to you, then."
Garvit released Babur's hand, preparing to head upstairs with Pamela.
Pamela, who had just learned that Garvit was participating in the Labyrinth Raid, remarked, "By the way, Captain Garvit, I've recently met two promising young individuals. I'd love to introduce them to you next time we meet."
"Really, that would be quite delightful," Garvit replied with a hearty laugh, though inwardly he paid little heed to it.
After all, no matter how promising these young individuals might be, they could never compare to his loyal master, Lord Banning.
.
Subsequent to leaving the Quest Guild, Tyler and Heloise headed to the outskirts.
Tyler had two aims: to hunt animals for some living expenses, and hopefully, encounter some demons.
The other was to wait and see if a snake would contact Heloise since, according to her, the Lord Earthly Ghost usually contacted her at night.
To increase the success rate, Tyler and Heloise kept a certain distance from each other.
Before they split, Tyler carefully instructed Heloise, "Heloise, since it's impossible to perform a purification ritual directly on your 'Lord Earthly Ghost', I have to resort to another method to help him dispel his karmic imprints. For this, I need you to cooperate with me..."
Although Tyler's request was a bit strange, Heloise took it seriously.
She trusted that once she explained the reason to Lord Earthly Ghost, he would surely understand - after all, it was all to help him dispel his karmic imprints.
Heloise and Tyler hunted until the sky was filled with stars. She was surprised to find that Tyler, as a messenger of the Benevolent Deity, possessed such excellent hunting skills.
Just as Heloise was preparing to catch a deer to prove herself, a green snake approached her.
"Hiss... Heloise, come here."
In a nearby tree, a green snake was sticking out its tongue as it spoke to Heloise.
Heloise coughed slightly in surprise, then walked over to the bushes.
And not far behind her, a young man quietly followed.
