Chapter 100: Guild Token
The car stopped right before Ryder, and the door opened as a man stepped out of the vehicle.
"Shu?" Ryder muttered as he saw the boy.
"Brother Ryder, You got a Whirlwind? I thought you liked the 2047 model? If you had told that you were getting a Whirlwind, I would have asked them to get a Whirlwind as well!" Shu told Ryder as he stepped closer to him.
"I should’ve guessed that you were rich when you told where you lived. Did you bug your parents to buy you that car? If I’m not wrong, even though it’s an older model, it should still be worth 2 million in the market," Ryder told Shu as he closed the door of his car.
"Sothing like that. Let’s go in," Shu said.
Both of them started walking towards the Yumyum Cafe under the watchful eyes of others on the road. Everyone was shocked to see two rich guys coming to their poor neighborhood.
The girls wanted to try their luck, but just by seeing their car, they gave up as they realized that these two were way above their league.
Ryder and Shu entered the cafe and found a seat for themselves.
They ordered coffee for themselves that was served by a girl in a maid uniform.
"Alright. So tell , what’s the Quest and how you got it?" Ryder asked.
"It happened when I was fighting a monster outside the Estella Kingdom to gain so experience. One of the Monsters dropped an item when it was killed. When I checked it, it turned out to be a guild token," Shu told him.
"What the heck? You found a guild token? That should’ve dropped in the Matris Kingdom 2 months later!" Ryder exclaid in surprise.
"What’re you talking about? You know that the Guild Token is a rare item that doesn’t have a certain dropping location," Shu answered him.
’My ti travel seed to have caused a ripple in the events. That should’ve been expected as so of my decisions directly or indirectly influenced the decision of other players,’ Ryder thought as he drank the coffee.
"You found a guild token; why don’t you start a guild then? Also, how is that related to the quest you were talking about?" Ryder asked Shu.
"I’m not making a guild now as I’m not strong enough to operate a guild. I was thinking of getting more levels before I start my guild. Anyway, I was talking about that because the guild token wasn’t the only thing that I found. I also found a small key. As I held the key, a quest screen was opened in front of ," Shu said.
’A key related quest? I don’t rember sothing like that happening in the least tiline,’ Ryder thought in full seriousness.
"What’s the quest?" Ryder asked.
"The quest talked about a D-Rank dungeon in the South of the Stech Kingdom. From the information that I’ve gathered, it seems like that place is still undiscovered. We need to enter the dungeon and conquer it. There’s a box on the deepest floor of the dungeon which can only be unlocked with the key," Shu explained.
"A D-Rank dungeon? The Monsters there should be level 10-15. What’s your level?" Ryder asked Shu.
"I’m level 12 now, but I’m sure that we can do it. We’ll have sothing like a raid team with the help of other adventures. We can share the rewards with them equally. I’ll get most of the experience and an equal share of the reward. Doesn’t seem like a bad deal, right?" Shu said, smilingly.
"That should be the most logical option, or you can spend so more ti hunting to increase your level," Ryder suggested.
"There’s a ti limit of 4 days in this quest. If I delay it anymore, it’ll be bad. I’ve already selected ten players for our team. Including you and , we’ll be 12 people," Shu replied.
"Since you’ve already planned everything, it’s alright. What’s your class?" Ryder asked Shu.
"I’m a thief in the ga. Also, there are three mages, three warriors, two priests, and two hunters in our team. What’s your class?" Shu inquired.
"My class? It’s sowhat complicated," Ryder said with a wry smile on his face.
"Keeping it a secret? It’s alright. I’m sure we’ll get to see you in action during the quest," Shu chuckled.
"It’s..." Ryder was about to respond when soone placed their hands on his shoulders.
"Ryder?" the person said.
Ryder looked back and saw a blonde boy standing behind him with a girl.
"I was right. It’s you. What happened, man? You never co to our class reunions? Do you hate us that much? Or are you still angry because soone joked about you being poor last ti? Co on, man; there’s nothing to be embarrassed about being poor. You can’t ghost your friends for such a small matter," the blonde-haired man said to Ryder as he chuckled.
"Jason? What’re you doing in this area?" Ryder muttered as he looked at the blonde guy with a frown.
"I was taking my girlfriend on a date, but she started asking for ice cream. I had to stop the car in the first place I noticed. Amazingly, I found you here. You never told us your address. Do you live here?" Jason asked Ryder.
"No, I ca here because a friend suggested this place," Ryder responded.
"A friend? Oh right. I didn’t notice this guy sitting near you, which is strange considering his large size. I pity you, man. You used to have such a rich and handso friend like Bastion in college. I can’t believe you stooped to a level like that," Jason laughed out loud.
"You didn’t grow up, did you? The arrogance can be bad for you, Jason," Ryder said as he stood up.
"Don’t get angry, man. I’m not trying to insult you; I was just talking about reality. Also, even if you get angry, what’re you going to do? Do you know who I am? I’m the General Manager in the marketing branch of Dream Corporation. You can’t even imagine how high my position is. Even if I kill soone, the police won’t dare to arrest !" Jason said in a proud tone.
"Anyway, you must’ve already received a reunion invitation, right? If you happen to grow so balls, I hope you will attend it. It’s not fun without having soone we can joke about," Jason chuckled as he said.
"Please leave before I break that smug face of yours," Ryder warned Jason.
"Hmph, poor trash," Jason muttered as he walked out of the cafe.
"Don’t mind his words. He’s always like this," Ryder comforted Shu as he sat down, but he was visibly surprised as he saw the smile on Shu’s face.
