Arise

"Let's get a move on" The young man, Felix Flamewood, told a group of adventurers.

This was only possible due to Khal's smooth-talking and connections. He contacted two Union branches, one in Lily town and another in Driftwood City. He knew the leaders of both branches and got them to send out the necessary notices.

The count was the one paying as well so he didn't dare hold back. The rewards could be said to be handsome for the average C-class adventurer and somewhat enticing for those at the B-class. 

Of course, such a handsome reward also made some wary. The adventurers currently following Felix could be said to be the bottom rung. They were the only ones willing to look past danger for monetary rewards. As usual, some were due to circumstances, and others were due to greed.

But Felix didn't care. At the moment his mind was preoccupied with worries. Truthfully, he was scared.

Defeat.
