"Should we hunt them down?" Ask Alex with a smile on his face ready for a fight like a muscle head. James and Vince shake their head and sigh deeply.

"Alex use your head for once," Said Vince holding his forehead in irritation. "We could ask the village folks about the information on those kids? Then beat them to smithereens like this guy" Said James glancing back at the beaten body of Andrew.

"Good plan but someone has to follow them right? Also, we would sneak attack them for the advantage of surprise! Not like you guys want" Vince said while staring at James and Alex.

James nodded his head. "Fine ill go ahead and follow them. Remember don't tell manual yet" He said before disappearing into the night.

Vince sigh once more before muttering to himself. While signaling to Alex to follow. " I should really not get James angry. Been torturing that poor guy for 1 and a half days now"

They went to the village to get some information. While James was trailing those NPCs

There were many NPC here in this village. They ask around for some information but was always disappointed. They always say an excuse to get away for some reason. The most common thing they said was.

'don't have a clue' Or 'Never heard of them' But Vince has a keen sense. They were lying said Vince to Alex every time.

"All of them was lying but why? Are they special NPC?" Vince said to himself while looking at Alex. "Maybe so?" Alex said to Vince with an embraced look on his face.

They kept asking the village folks from normal villagers to the ruler. Still, he said no.

"Something is strange here. Definitely" Vince said walking towards where Manuel was. "Let's go to Miss Lesley's home," He said remaining Alex where they were going. Alex just nodded.

A few minutes later they were in front of a beautiful house. Vince was the one who knocks n the door. He heard someone coming towards the door and slowly opening it.

Once the door was open Vince and Alex smelled a pleasant smell of flowers and trees. "Ohh are you boys looking for Manuel," She said with a small smile on her face.

They both nodded their head. Miss Lesley smiled at them and let them in the house. "Come on in. I was just teaching him some things" She said to them closing the door when they were inside.

Miss Lesley lead the way towards the living room where Manuel was just sitting on a chair made of wood. Manuel looks at them and just greeted them.

"Oh Hello, whey are you guys here? Did you finish what I assign you with?" Manuel said sipping some tea and biting a small piece of cake.

Vince and Alex sat across Manuel. "We haven't. We only need to get them. But we tried to get some information from the village folks but they didn't say anything" Vince said shaking his head while also getting some tea.

"Really? Maybe it's because they already know that you work for me?" Manuel said to them. Vince again shook his head. "No, it's not that. Its just wear that why we came to Miss Lesley house to ask her about that"

They have figured out that miss Lesley was very knowledgeable. Other players called her the library where you could ask any question and be answered. But they have to bring a gift. For Manuel thu it's free.

Vince looks at Manuel seriously and slowly asks. "Could you ask miss Lesley?" He said looking towards the approaching Miss Lesley. "What are you talking about," She asked with a smile.

Manuel sigh and ask her about the other child of the village especially the four who wanted to kill him. After finishing his explanation Miss Lesley was hesitant to tell them but she still said it.

"Ask you may know. This village was special. Every single person in this village has a story like mine. The one of the four Manuel was talking about was the great-great-great-grandson of the fourth king" She said looking at Manuel.

Manuel was also shocked to know this information. "Wait. You mean I wasn't the only one?" He said with wide eyes.

Miss Lesley chuckled. "of course. Why do you see that any materials or equipment you need is already is in this village? It's because. this village is a quite special one" She said again not saying another word to continue the topic.

Manuel sigh again while Vince and Alex were confused about what they just heard. Manuel explained everything to them and was about to drop the mission when Miss Lesley spoke.

"Actually even if you kill him the fourth king will not do anything. Or he would only send someone" Said miss Lesley explaining everything to us. We thank her and Vince, Alex went on their own way.

But before they left I said something to them. And they both nodded their head.

James dashes away and searches for the NPCs. He thought it would be easy to find them but. After an hour of looking he didn't find them. "Where the hell could they have gone?" Ask James looking around at other players.

He was now in the middle of the village where many players gather. Well, now there were few as some of the players have already left the started village.

'Manuel said we're going to leave this place after he has done everything he needed' James thought to himself nodding in understanding.

'Well maybe after the chain quest as the reward is the main quest? I don't understand' thought James looking around and finding many new players in the village.

They were forming groups as they weren't powerful yet to 1v1 the new mobs that appear even their defense was quit week.

There was an update in the game where the level of monsters will be measured by your level and skills. So everyone was equal in fighting mobs well except after level 15 and above.

James thought it was a good update to the game. So late players can still reach the older players. James went towards a group of players and ask if they have seen these four NPCs.

"Hey there," James said waving his hands with a smile. The group of 3 looks at James with some worry.

The group turned around to see James waving they all look at each other. Understanding that they don't know this man they were wary of him.

"yea?" Ask the man looking like the leader of the group. He has good looks but averages in everything else.

"I was wondering if you have seen these four NPCs" James explained the details of the NPCs to them but they said no.

"I'm sorry but we haven't seen them," One of them said. She was the only girl in the group.

"That's a shame," James said about to leave when the last person called out to him. He has dark long hair dark browns eyes and a fine body fit for any model while his face was quite handsome.

"We could tell you if we find them," The man said sending me a friend request. I smiled and accepted it. 'More friends mean more help' James thought to himself.

Like a tide, the other members also agreed. Looks like this guy acts more like the leader of the group. I said thank to them and headed my way and ask a few other players.

"Zero that's the guy we needed to kill right?" The leader said to the black-haired dud.

"Yes, that's what the quest says" The man replied leaving the place and heading towards a secluded area in the village.
