Chapter 271 - Infamous Guild

All Martha could do was wait patiently for Lenny to come back to the two of them and let them know if he had found anything. She was getting restless as the days went by and there was still no news of finding a suitable beast.

The three of them stayed at an Inn with three bedrooms and paid for it month by month. Martha had long gotten used to going to the bathroom to get changed, due to her experience at the academy.

They had no clue how long Ray would be in Roland and at the same time, it was better and cheaper, to pay monthly rather than paying day by the day.

But watching the days go by, Martha had a thought. Lenny would often leave them two in the morning and go out on his own, the thing was Lenny would even do this before deciding to help Martha.

Inside the room, Martha and Jack were just sorting out their gear for their quest that they would go on today. With nothing to do, they often chose a random quest to complete. Martha used to be an F rank adventurer but managed to rank up quickly and was now a Rank D with Jack.

Most of the quests involved hunting beats, escorting merchants and Nobles and finally going to nearby towns and villages to sort out problems, usually involving beasts. There were higher difficulty quests as well since Roland was a big city but while waiting for Lenny, they decided to just do the easy stuff.

"Hey Jack, what do you think of Lenny?" Martha asked.

"What do you mean?" Jack said as he swung his great sword, a daily routine for him.

"Well you and Ray have been with him a lot longer than I have, and he's not part of the Red wings, so I guess what I'm asking is, if you trust him?" Martha seemed to be having doubts over the whole thing, she was practically putting all her hopes in a crazy author.

"I think we can trust him," Jack replied, "Although he is not part of the Red wings our enemy is the same. When he talks about the shadow, I can really feel his anger."

With Jack's answer, Martha started to feel a little better, before heading off to their escort Job for the Day, Martha wanted to send Slyvia an update. So far she had been giving a daily report on how they were doing via the system and Sylvia and the others were doing the same.

"Huh?" Martha then tried sending a message again, then tried sending it to a different person but she would get the same result.

"Hey try to send a message, something is going on," Martha said panicked.

Jack tried sending a message to Martha and the same error message had appeared.

"Do you think something happened to Ray?" Martha asked.

"Maybe but I wouldn't worry about it too much, this has happened once before," Jack said thinking about the time when he was stuck underneath Avrion.

"Is there a reason?"

"I'm really not sure, last time it had happened Ray was separated from us, though when we found him, he looked fine so I don't have a clue why the system does this from time to time," Jack said.

Martha had a huge frown on her face as she was deep in thought, ever since Monk had left she had been worried about everything and looked into things deeper than most people usually would.

"Relax Martha," Jack said looking into her eyes. "Ray is strong, stronger than us all, I chose to follow him not only because he saved my life but because it seems like he's going to be a man that will change the world."

The two of them then went out for their escort quest for the day, it was an easy task with no troubles along the way. They had met with a group of Bandits and the start of their journey but after Jack knocked one of them away, they quickly scurried off.

As long as they stuck to the path, they would usually see no beasts. After completing their Quest and getting the reward money from the guildhall, the two of them went back in their room for a little bit of rest before going out again for the night.

But to their surprise, for once Lenny was in the room waiting for the two of them.

"Oh, there you are." Said Lenny all exited. "I have finally found a suitable beast and the quest to go with it. The quest is to take out a flock of Harpies. These beasts use Wind magic, a very minimal amount of wind magic to help them fly. Their bodies are too heavy for their wings to work properly and the base of their form is mostly Human as well. I think this type of beast is perfect for us."

"A flock, although Harpies are weak usually, they travel in groups of hundreds, even with our strength we would be worn out taking them all on," Martha said.

"Worry not, the type of quest is a group guild quest, we should hurry and register now, as they go out for the hunt tomorrow."

The three of them then walked over to the guildhall that was not too far from the inn. It was the reason why they had chosen the inn in the first place.

When they arrived is was as Lenny had said, there was a group quest to subjugate the flock of Harpies and around twenty adventures had already joined.

The three of them registered for the quest. Jack and Martha had registered under the guild the Red wings, while Lenny had done so as a solo Adventurer.

To Jack and Martha's surprise, they could see that Lenny was considered a Rank B adventurer, something he had kept secret from the others for a while now. He also never had his Tag on display.

As the three of them left the hall to go to the locale Tavern for drinks, they were unaware of what commotion they had caused that night.

At the Guildhall, nearly all the adventures were talking about something.

"Hey look at this, someone from that infamous Red wings group registered for the quest tomorrow."

"You mean the guild that had taken down Avrion?"

"Yeah, it looks like it, two of their members are on here."

"What Rank are they?"

"Here it says there only Rank D."

"Rank D huh, I wonder if they are really as strong as everyone makes them out to be. We will just have to see tomorrow."
