Help a struggling maiden out

Ding!

"A quest?" Kaden hurriedly browsed the quest details.

Quest Description:

Gerald, an elderly man residing in a nearby village, seeks the aid of a brave adventurer to retrieve a precious family heirloom that has been lost in the treacherous forest. The heirloom in question is a pendant of great sentimental value, and it belongs to Gerald's granddaughter, Thalia. She is devastated by its loss and longs for its safe return. Thalia recalls wearing the pendant when she last ventured into the territory of the feral wolves.

Grade: Uncommon

Difficulty: D Rank

Reward: Gerald and Thalia's goodwill

"Huh? Just a D Rank quest?" Kaden knitted his brows. "Then why did he chase after me?" He also did not remember any particular big quests relating to a pendant from his last life.

He assumed that maybe the guy put a lot of effort to farm the feral wolves and find the pendant. It would then make sense to not want to lose the pendant.

But something still did not sit well with him. He looked at the details again and this time his eyes lingered on the reward. "No experience points or items or coins? Could this be a chain quest?"

This made more sense. Chain quests usually tended to go higher in rank with every quest. So if this was the second or third quest in the chain, the first two quests could have been F Rank and E Rank, and the next two quests could be C Rank and B Rank.

"No wonder he did not want to let go of the pendant and kept coming back." Kaden mused. He was about to remove the pendant and toss it into the inventory when suddenly he froze.

"Wait a second. Thalia… Thalia… Thalia? Why does that name sound familiar?"

Kaden did not know why but the name clicked in his mind and he felt as if he had heard it somewhere. "Fuck!" It then struck his mind.

Thalia! That was the same name as the follower of a player! Not just any player but the third top ranker in the entire game!

This couldn't possibly be the same person right?

Kaden swallowed nervously. No, the chances were slim but still, this was a huge coincidence for both names to be the same. He had to see where this quest goes.

If he remembered correctly, the third top ranker had a hidden class called the moonlight druid. He was also the first-ranked alchemist, thanks to the special buff of that hidden class.

And this Thalia was the bespectacled assistant of that man. However, that term did not do any justice to her. Kaden had personally seen how that woman fights. She was more skilled than half of the players in the rankers list.

Not to mention… she was a bombshell!

Even with her slim figure, the woman had absolutely delicious thick thighs and wore long sexy stockings that barely covered them. Now Kaden was not a thigh man but this was an exception.

Her weapon of choice was also a whip making everything just more perfect.

Brrrr. Kaden shook his head. Enough of that. There was no point in building castles in his mind now. The two Thalias might not be the same as far as he knew! He needed to see where the quest goes to figure out more details.

No, if he could just meet her in person, he would immediately know if they were one and the same person. For that, he needed to start moving.

Without wasting any more time, he quickly picked up a few bags, loaded some bags on Scrap and Umbra and the three of them were ready to leave.

The poor abyss creatures both looked pitiful as they chugged along behind Kaden. Luckily for them, the hiding spot Kaden had in mind was not that far away. It was a small cave hidden behind several trees, intertwined with each other.

Also, it was smack dab in the middle of the stone monkeys territory so not many players would dare to step in here just yet.

After a short journey, they reached the hidden cave. It was nestled in a dense thicket, the entrance partially obscured by thick foliage. Kaden surveyed the area, ensuring it was secure before leading Scrap and Umbra inside.

The cave was spacious enough to accommodate all of their luggage. Kaden set his bags down and stretched his limbs. Now that this was taken care of it was finally time to visit the capital city of the kingdom and get that mask. Only then the real work would begin.
