We are prepared thanks to your unwavering support and affection.

Following the battle, the investigators held a second meeting. They concluded that the barrier required enhancements before lifting the ban, which included strengthening it, increasing the guard force, and establishing monitoring protocols.

[[Jojie]] Before we proceed, I would like to make a brief statement regarding my perspective on the matter. A thorough investigation is still needed, but it should be conducted separately, and we should form a dedicated group to address this issue. Our scout team has discovered evidence of a massacre involving Rank A and Rank S monsters at the entrance to the demi-monster territory. We are currently unable to determine the identity of the culprit. However, we can draw one clear conclusion: a disturbance is occurring within the monsters' territory. This is why many powerful monsters have entered our domain, which is a significant concern for our kingdom, particularly in the town of Gerping. Lastly, we have received a report indicating that some hunters are still active, despite the hunting ban. Their licenses will be revoked immediately if they do not comply.

The guild master is liable due to his knowledge. He stated that he would look into the matter. To end the conversation.

The incident occurred a few days ago, and the guild lifted the hunting ban. The guild has formally acknowledged Shaji's party specifically because the hunting field was open a few days ago.

[[Shjai]] We are now a full hunt party, so congratulations, Ms. Joyce and Ms. Roxy. I want you to bid your family and school farewell first, Ms. Roxy. then return tomorrow so we may review our plans. Okay, before we accept the guild request.

[[Roxy]], sir Shaji, that is my intention. I'm also looking forward to tomorrow. Alright, yes this is it!

[[Joyce]] Alright, see you tomorrow, big sister Roxy.

[[Shaji]] Okay, then bring your goods to the BengBang Hotel right away tomorrow morning, and we'll make arrangements there.

[[Roxy]] Okay, so goodbye, see you tomorrow.

[[Joyce]] I think Sister Roxy is hilarious.

[[Shaji]] Come on Joyce, let's go back.

Roxy was waiting in the lobby the next morning. Soon the two of them went down.

[[Roxy]] Good morning, Roxy, and Sir Shaji. I'm ready!!

[[Shaji]] Good morning to you too, Roxy. Let us have breakfast first.

Then they began talking about the plan while they were eating.

[[Shaji]] We'll begin by purchasing supplies. We'll go to a couple of stores. After that, I have a quick request for the orphanage. Then We'll be heading to the guild right away. So we can take hunting requests. Joyce, are you ready, Ms. Roxy? If you're up for the adventure, let's go!

[[Roxy]] Wait, where should I put my things?

[[Shaji]] Oh… I almost forgot. Roxy, would it be okay if we shared my room?

[[Roxy]] What?...

[[Shaji]] Just a joke, you won't agree, of course, so I'll get you a room next to mine. Are you okay with that?

[[Roxy]] Okay…

[[Joyce]] (just laugh and laugh)

They began visiting Daks and Jutz Magic Shop after being assured that everything seemed Good.

[[Bhacut]] Oh!? Young boy, welcome back. How are the items you bought from me, by the way? Are they effective?

[[Shaji]] Aha! That's why I came to you first because I have so many questions for you; you're insane, you didn't explain it properly, especially, the booster, which is like chupapa something. Explain it to me now! And one more thing. what kind of relationship do you have with the mystery man, He's a bit much to be around.

[[Bhacut]] Oh dear! Calm down... I'll explain it to you, young boy, but in the other room, all right. Ahh! Ladies, just continue looking for the things you desire.

[[Joyce]] What's wrong with those two, Sister Roxy?

[[Roxy]] maybe love quarreling.

[[Joyce]] What? They're both boys.

[[Roxy]] haha... It's only a joke. Let them go for now; let's find some nice hunting gear.

[[Joyce]] Okay!!

Meanwhile, in the other room, Bhacut began explaining to Shaji.

[[Bhacut]] I have known him for quite some time, but he rarely visits my shop. His true identity remains a mystery to me. He is generous and usually brings gifts when he comes by, and he also makes purchases at my shop. The other day, he visited me and asked for a favor. He said that if a teenage boy happens to enter the shop or makes a purchase, he would like me to do something for him. He then handed me an item. Then he said give this for free, since you were the only young boy who visited my shop recently, I decided to give it to you. Remember, I asked you to come back to me after you've used it. I'm curious to know what he gave me. So… what happened? Are there any side effects?

[[Shaji]] Nothing, be cautious about accepting anything that could potentially harm others, especially if you're unsure about its implications. I can only describe it as an abnormality.

[[Bhacut]] Okay sorry, I won't ask anymore; it's plain to us. so… Let's return to business. What do you want right now?

[[Shaji]] We need hunting supplies. Similar to the ones you previously gave me.

[[Bhacut]] supplies… You didn't mention having a group. Alright! Here's a multi-purpose health and mana booster Using this all-purpose enhancer elixir is a better option. This will provide a simultaneous upgrade to your MP and HP stats. There aren't any anti-poison elixirs yet. The presence of various poison types among enemies necessitates this measure. In case something comes up, I'll add this.

[[Shaji]] Alright, go ahead and add that too. The multi-purpose one is more convenient than the single one... surely they have the same effect right?

[[Bhacut]] Of course, Although the price is a bit high, this product is useful for two things.

[[Shaji]] Fine, I'll take three anti-poisons and six multipurpose elixirs.

[[Bhacut]] Before we proceed, let's find out what your companions like. Particularly the slender girl you're with. She has a somewhat eerie scent.

[[Shaji]] Do you smell it too? Anyway, Let's ask them whether they would want to purchase anything.

[[Bhacut]] Hello ladies, have you selected anything yet?

[[Roxy]] How much is this ring? I want it.

[[Bhacut]] Good choice ma'am It's an excellent option for long-range hunters. For you, that is. They're known as Concentric Rings. If you are a hunter who uses Bow and Arrow. Your arrows are propelled at a tenfold speed and are equipped with a targeting system that locks onto targets. The ring is worth 200 gold.

[[Roxy]] I will buy this.

[[Bhacut]] I just wanted to remind you that this ring is quite powerful in terms of mana consumption. Will you still take it?

[[Roxy]] Sure thing. Why not? I'll pay for that.

[[Bhacut]] (whispered to Shaji) Who is that? She is gorgeous, yet she feels wealthy.

[[Shaji]] You don't know Roxy. I forgot what her last name was. However, she is a noblewoman's daughter because she is a classmate of the Mayor's daughter.

[[Bhacut]] 😲 Is that really her? I couldn't believe it, she was so stunning. daughter of Mr., and Mrs. Lovesters. Are you dating her? I'm concerned about the compatibility between you two.

[[Shaji]] You treat me cruelly. I like her. She is yummy. I mean she is nice to be with. But she is a little masculine, though.

[[Joyce]] How much is this, ma'am?

[[Bhacut]] What is your name, young lady? What type of spellcaster are you? You smell so much like a sorcerer, but there's still a unique smell about you. But anyway, hold my hand, and we'll make your aura invisible. That way, your enemies won't be able to find you. There... okay, I've hidden your aura.

[[Joyce]] Thank you very much. I didn't know there was something like that in my body. Angkol Shaji, I'd like this, but I hope it's affordable.

[[Bhacut]] Don't worry; I'll offer it to you cheaply. It's been in my shop for a long time, but no one has expressed interest except you. You know what that is, Twin Devil's Bone Spear. But it is a Wand form. That is why no one buys it; it is cursed, and if you use it, you must first deal with the curse.

[[Shaji]] Okay, if you don't buy anything else, I will pay for it. That applies to you, too, Ms. Roxy. I recruited you all, therefore I'll pay for everything. Also, include the retreat portal. Give me three. This is highly effective. Ma'am Bhacut, how much is everything?

[[Bhacut]] Okay… Your entire purchase is worth 400 gold.

[[Shaji]] Alright, this is a wise investment for us despite the high cost. I'll cover everything.

The transactions with Daks and Jutz have been finalized. They are currently going to Joseph BlackSmith to pick up the manufactured blades.

[[Joseph]] Welcome back sir Shaji and to you ladies. I've made some adjustments to make it truly effective against powerful monsters, but everything else is ready. I made you a Kalis Sword, of course, the twin panabas, a Barong Sword. A Bolo Sword. Talibong and the Ginunting. and the last one is the Pinuso blade which is your favorite. Wow, you guys seem like a team, huh? A brand new hunting group, is that right?

[[Roxy]] You are right, sir.

[[Joseph]] Haha! Go ahead and enjoy yourselves, but remember to be careful. You seem like a kindred spirit to me. We have something in common. In those days. I believe you are capable. I wish you luck. Remember our business, Sir Shaji, and return when you can.

[[Shaji]] Yes, sir Joseph. I will always have a blade made by you. Thank you too.

They also got the newly formed blade from the blacksmith. They headed right away to the orphanage.

[[Shaji]] Good day Ms. Tyron.

[[Ms. Tyron]] Good day to you as well, Sir Shaji... Joyce? Is that you? Wow, you're gorgeous! Come on in. How can I help you today?

[[Shaji]] "We want to help, even with small things, Ms. Tyron; we talked about it; we want to help the children here; if we make money from hunting, you will take half from the guild bank; do not worry, the foster home will be the beneficiary; you will be notified when the money is available."

Ms. Tyron was so taken aback that she unknowingly started crying. Joyce sobbed as well. and they hugged each other. They were unaware that the kids were staring out the window. A girl approached Joyce.

[[Hiwahaba]] (former roommate) I'm glad your dream has come true, Sister Joyce. And thanks for remembering us. We'll never stop praying for you. Be careful. Sister Joyce, we miss you.

Joyce didn't say anything else except for her tight hug to her friend. And all the kids hugged her too.

[[Shaji]] Don't worry, Brother Shaji will be looking after you. I'm here to help you achieve your dreams.

[[Ms. Tyron]] Sir Shaji, we have not yet met someone like you who is so compassionate and loving to others. You must be a messenger from heaven. I hope you'll never change. May God always guide you. Thank you for your efforts, and I hope you continue to succeed and receive divine guidance.

I understand how emotional the scene was, but the team is determined to assist and fully understand their actions. They genuinely want to help and protect those in need. Anyway, they have already entered the guild house, where their group currently holds a Rank D status. Therefore, their first task remains a Rank D assignment. Their initial action involved assisting with cargo by delivering shipments to the outpost, for which they would receive a payment of 13 gold. With three hours still left before their journey and a long way to travel, they had ample time to prepare. They returned to the Beng Bang Hotel and relaxed for a few hours.
