city of Rikarisu

Basil's perspective

we left the migurdia village and was on our way to Rikarisu city. I ended up giving Lilia the sword that Rowin gave to me. it took us 10 hours to get near the city between the monsters and the fact that Lilia couldn't walk as fast. unfortunately we have to wait until morning before we enter the city that's the gates are closed. so I decided to make my Earth hut.

so we made camp we ate and I went over our plan. my plan was that we enter the city book a room for a few days then head to the adventures guild. to pick up some work and see if anybody has any information on what's happened.

the next morning we got up had quick breakfast and then headed for the entrance of the city luckily for us sylphy still had her jacket with the hood so getting in should be easy. the city was in what looked to be a giant crater with huge natural wall on all sides. when we entered the city I seen a lot of shabby looking houses and a wide variety of different looking people.

I clapped my hands together and said let's go look for an inn. after talking to a few vendors I decided to try out the inn that's called the winking Mucky Rat. odd name if I do say so myself. so as we were going through the city to find the inn we actually came into view of the adventures guild. after talking to my compatriots we decided to just hit the inn first.

when we got to the inn above the door was a giant sign with a huge rat winking. I walk in and at the reception counter was a bear of a man I mean that quite literally. I walked up to the counter and asked the man looks at me and says I'm not in my head and said the man replied I open my sack and see 40 iron. I pull out 22 iron coins and say the man counts it and hands us the key to our room.

our room was bare just had a six beds after everyone on packs and get settled in. I say Lilia nodded it's saying that that sounded like a good idea.

when we got to the adventure guild this sounds of arguing laughing could be heard. I get my serious look on and walk through the door.

and everybody seems to have stopped at once looking at the newcomers. I head towards the front desk. and in a loud voice I explain that there was an incident in Azura a kingdom and that I am looking for a few people and I am willing to pay them to help me look and will give a big reward if they find them.

the whole crowd is quiet one man gets up a horse face man and asks I looked at him and said again the whole crowd goes silent then the horse man spoke up I took a deep breath when I responded The horseman laughed and said nodded and then said that sounds like a good idea.

full horse man walks up to me introduces himself as Nekopara and he says and we shook on it and I handed him 10 iron coins. he's in immediately left and I was sitting there thinking what a strange fellow he was.

I looked at Ruijerd and said that he should probably get signed in to be an adventure. he looked at me and asked why. and I simply said it would help with finances he nods and then goes to the counter. while Eris me and sylphy look at the job board much to the confusion of everybody around. one adventure even asked don't we need to sign up first and I just responded to him saying I'm already an adventure a c rank one at that. which all causing them to start laughing even when I showed in my card they accused me of having hired someone to help me achieve the rank I just ignored them and continue looking for a suitable quest.

apparently there was a Mucky Rat infestation as a lot of the jobs or asking for them to be exterminated. so I grabbed three different ones and handed one to Eris and one to sylphy. Ruijerd came up to us showing us that he became an adventure and I begin looking at the beginner ones to see if I could find a good one for him unfortunately the beginning quests don't pay too much but beggars can't be choosers.

I also seen quite a few missing pet missions and I asked Ruijerd I said this in a whisper. Ruijerd nodded and I said okay when I grabbed one that talked about a lost cat and handed it to him as we made it to the front counter we gave the receptionist the quests we wanted to take and I asked her where do we take our monster parts to sell she simply said to go in the back and that's where they deal with that so after we got signed up for our quests we headed out the door. and went to the back of the adventures guild building to sell off all our months or parts that we got on the way here and ended up with 20 more iron pieces.

first I decided that we would handle the Mucky Rat quest first then you will do Ruijerds quest. and everybody agreed. my first time seeing a Mucky Rat startled me I never knew rats could get so big poor sylphy screamed when she seen them even Eris wasn't none Plus to have to deal with them. but we managed to exterminate them and used Ruijerd third eye to make sure we got them all that's how my quest Eris quest and sylphy quest went.

as we went to the house of Ruijerds client to see if we could get more information. it turns out the client was a child who had lost her cat. then we wandered all over the city following Ruijerds third eye. we started going down the slums. in coming to a weird cave they had a weird smell like that of a stable. Ruijerd says

any people are asking and he just shook his head. and down we went into the cavern where we see tons of animals caged up and I asked which one do you think is the clients animal.

Ruijerd pointed to one a huge black cat the size of a wolf I muttered under my breath I guess everything is bigger in the demon continent.

but before we could release it we heard someone coming down the stairs we all prepare to ambush them. when they got close enough me and Eris knocked them out in a flash and sylphy bound them up using Earth magic and hung them from the wall there were three of them one looked like a bee one looked like a lizard man and the other one was some other insectoid type.

I had sylphy use water magic to splash on them so they would wake up. Bee and the lizard man both seemed nervous and the other one was being obnoxious. after listening him to him yell and scream I finally told him to be quiet as I started walking towards him to question him. but to my complete surprise he managed to kick me which really pissed me off mad at him for doing it mad at myself for letting him but unfortunately for him Ruijerd must have immediately cut off the obnoxious man's head as it's rolling on the ground. that scared sylphy pretty bad Eris seem to find with it. I brush myself off and asked why he did it Ruijerd responded with I'm nodded and replied Ruijerd scaffolds at this a little bit and says I give a sigh and reply all he says in response to this is I see.

I woke up to the lizard man in the bee girl and ask them what are they doing here and they explain that they've been kidnapping pets waiting for someone to post up a reward for it take the job and give the pets back for the money. Ruijerd asked I replied give them to the guard let the law handle it.

so after we alerted the guards to what they've been doing we headed back with the cat to give back to the client and to turn in are completed quests we made six iron and five Stone coins that day we went back to the inn where we ate dinner and went to sleep.
