CHAPTER 36 MISSIONS
Shadow was doing a gang quest (Kill all the bandit lizardmen) (A-Rank Mission) (100 gold).
Shadow chose this quest because he wants to subdue the lizardmen.
When they got to the lair of the bandit lizardmen, they saw many lizardmen prowling about. There are also slaves consisting of humans, demi-humans, and goblins.
Shadow counted they were at least 200 lizardman while the slaves exact numbers are 100 Shadow then scans all of them their strength are decent they are mostly made up of SILVER LEVEL while the bandit captain is a GOLD LEVEL 6
Shadow then told Dargon the strength of the lizardman.
The strength of the lizardmen causes Dargon to frown. Shadow knows that he is worried about Dorothy's safety.
"Don't worry, Dargon, I'll let Vixen protect her, but you know she needs the experience to become stronger, so let her challenge those lizardmen. Besides, she has her contracted beast, so she is pretty safe."
Listening to what Shadow said, he reluctantly nodded. Shadow then let Glutton charge in while he was facing the bandit leader. Dorothy would rescue the slaves, while Dargon and Glutton would go on a rampage.
*Howl* Glutton let out a howl, and the lizardmen, who were enjoying themselves, immediately sprang up and picked up their sword.
*Roar* Dargon let out a battle cry and also charged in.
Dorothy used [Accelerate] together with the innate talent [Leopard Speed]. She became a blur and immediately arrived at the slaves. His contracted beast Chi Chi and Wolfy also used [Accelerate] and followed Dorothy while Chubby was left prancing about.
The bandit leader let out a battle cry and was about to order his man when Shadow charged at him and swung his sword.
*Ping* the bandit leader blocks Shadow attack with his huge sabre but is still pushed by 5 steps; his sabre is now broken.
Shadow then uses the 3rd move of the Asura's Wrath Sword Skill, the Asura's Rampage.
Killer became a blur. There were five afterimages that were produced by the sword skill.
The bandit leader curls up to defend itself, but its scales were destroyed. His wounds were getting worse. If Shadow hadn't held back, the bandit leader's head should have been cut off.
After an hour, all of the bandit lizardmen were captured. Shadow's instruction is to capture them alive, if not all of them will be corpses.
Shadow then brief the slaves about their fate and also tied the bandit lizardmen together with their leader he will bring them all in Eligan Town the bandits will be rehabilitated by Lou Yan
Shadow then returns to the city of Dargon, and Dorothy goes back to their apartment while Shadow goes to the market. As he was passing by, he felt a hand reach in on his purse. Shadow just let out a smile and let the thief take it.
After stealing Shadow's purse, the thief immediately goes to an alley. After walking for five minutes, she arrives at a broken-down house.
"Sis you came back?" After knocking on the door, 5 kids came out: 3 girls and 2 boys.
The thief smiled kindly and rubbed their heads.
"So you steal for your family?" suddenly an applause was heard along with Shadow's voice.
The thief looks at Shadow nervously. She asks Shadow fearfully, "Sir, who might you be?"
Shadow did not answer her but scanned her.

He also scanned the others, but their stats are not noteworthy.
The thief became even more nervous seeing Shadow wasn't answering her.
"My name is Shadow, and I am the owner of that purse." When Shadow's answer was given, her eyes widen. She shields her siblings from Shadow.
"You know, if you work for me, I won't hurt you or take you to the guards."
The girl hesitated, then looked at her sibling, then made up her mind and looked at Shadow. "I, Arian, swore to be loyal to Shadow-san."
Shadow nodded and told her that he would be transporting them to his town. He told her that when she arrives, look for someone named Shelia and tell her that it was Shadow who sent you. I want you to change your profession to an Assassin.
Shadow then took her purse and teleported all of them.
After shopping, he returns to his apartment and sleeps.
Morning came, and Shadow then returned to his town and brought back Arian with him.
Shadow then brought her to the counter and registered her with his team. Even though she wasn't tested, the guild accepted her because of Shadow.
They then searched for a suitable mission, and after looking for a while, they found three good missions to choose from.
(Kills the Flaming Boar King) (B-Rank) (50 Gold)
(Escort a caravan) (B-Rank) (60 Gold)
(Annihilate the horde of Purple-Tailed Poison Rats) (A-Rank) (1000 Gold)
Shadow chose the hardest mission of all. The reason is that the rats may hold a den orb, which increases their den orb.
Shadow and the gang set off to the Purple Tailed Poison Rats lair
When they got there, the whole forest looked like a barren wasteland. No trees or other beasts were seen. Shadow now knows why the mission was posted; it was because the rats habit of devouring everything on their path makes them very dangerous.
Shadow and the gang proceeded carefully; they also saw rats prancing about. He let Glutton, Wolfy, and Vixen kill them. He left Chubby and Arian behind. He gave them a mission to kill the wandering rats.
They got deeper in the valley; all of the rats they saw were killed by the three speedy beasts, and the number of rats they encountered also increased.
"Dargon, I want you and Dorothy to kill all the rats they will encounter, while I will only bring Vixen and Glutton."
Dargon nodded and left with Dorothy while Shadow and the rest sped off deeper in the valley.
