While Liens was battling the Divine Wind Adventurer Group in the instance.
In reality, Jay Orlando, the current leader of the Divine Wind Adventurer Group, sat solemnly at his desk, contemplating or perhaps waiting for sothing.
"Creak"
The door opened, and Captain Jay imdiately looked up, only to see a man in a Divine Wind Adventurer Group uniform walk in.
If Liens had been present at that mont, he would have recognized the newcor as one of the Divine Wind Adventurer Group's Extraordinary Ones.
"How is it?"
Before the other person could approach, Captain Jay sternly asked him.
"According to the information obtained from the investigation, that Great Knight appeared at the Adventurers' Association around noon today, which was about an hour ago."
"Before that, many Adventurers in the Adventurers' Association had never seen him."
"Afterward, Miss Lottie of the Adventurers' Association solemnly invited him into a private eting room to discuss matters, and only then did they realize that he might be a powerful existence."
"I asked other Extraordinary Ones in the city and learned that before we ca to Korlot, the Adventurers' Association had issued a commission."
"The commission required several Extraordinary Ones to complete together, and the general content was to rescue the Adventurers' Association mbers trapped in Kara City, a border city of the Hartwin Kingdom."
"Because the commission was too dangerous, not many people were willing to accept it, so it was put on hold for a few days until he arrived."
"Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that the Adventurers' Association, seeing the urgent situation there, specifically dispatched a strong person from above to resolve this matter."
The man seriously reported the intelligence he had gathered to Captain Jay.
"So, the Adventurers' Association has no intention of interfering in our kingdom's affairs, and he is just hitching a ride with us to Kara City, is that right?"
Captain Jay summarized.
"The current information collected should be like this; more intelligence will require ti for detailed investigation."
The man nodded in response.
"Hmm?"
Captain Jay fell into deep thought, and the man did not interrupt, so the room fell silent again.
After a while, Captain Jay spoke:
"No need to investigate further... Quickly arrange for an Earth Dragon Beast with the best stamina and fastest speed, and send him away directly after the banquet ends."
"Regardless of why he and the Adventurers' Association chose us at this ti, as long as he does not travel with us, it should not have too much impact on the plan."
"Okay, I'll go arrange it now."
The man nodded in assent, then quickly turned and left the room.
"Bang"
As this sound rang out, only Captain Jay was left in the room again. Thinking of the task arranged by his superiors, he couldn't help but murmur, "I hope everything goes smoothly."
...
"The test went quite smoothly."
"The Divine Wind Adventurer Group poses little threat to . Looking at it this way, I seem to already possess combat power comparable to a Great Knight."
"Indeed, only by stepping out can one truly see one's own progress."
Liens thought to himself.
"Guest."
A soft voice rang in his ear, and he saw a cute maid in a maid's uniform standing by the bed, softly calling out.
Liens turned to look at the cute maid. She was young, appearing to be only sixteen or seventeen, with slightly flushed cheeks, looking like a timid young girl.
He didn't know if she was a maid from this inn or if the Divine Wind Adventurer Group had specifically found her from outside.
She had a beautiful appearance, gentle features, and a slender figure. Although not as alluring as Nimophila and Atel, she could still be considered a rare beauty.
"Hmm? Why am I starting to pay attention to this? Am I being influenced by Nimophila?"
Liens felt a bit strange. When did he start caring about other people's appearances?
"Guest?"
The little maid softly called out again.
Noticing Liens's gaze scanning her up and down, she beca even shyer. Her already slightly flushed cheeks turned even redder, and her voice beca even softer.
It was more like a murmur than a call.
Without thinking much, Liens directly asked the little maid, "Is the banquet ready?"
"Yes, it is."
"The banquet is ready. Captain Jay of the Divine Wind Adventurer Group asked to co and inform you."
Hearing Liens's question, the little maid imdiately put away her shyness and respectfully replied.
"Lead the way."
Upon hearing this, Liens didn't want to waste any more ti and directly asked the little maid to lead the way to the banquet location.
Skipping the short walking process.
Soon, led by the little maid, Liens quickly arrived at a well-decorated and very bright room.
The room was not very large, so it naturally could not accommodate all the mbers of the Divine Wind Adventurer Group.
Therefore, he could only see eight people seated around a dining table laden with various exquisite foods.
These eight people were precisely all the Extraordinary Ones of the Divine Wind Adventurer Group.
Four Knights and four Mages.
Seeing Liens appear in the room, these eight people imdiately stood up, and among them, Captain Jay imdiately stepped forward and said to Liens:
"Mr. Heier, you're here. Please have a seat here."
After Captain Jay spoke, the little maid, having completed her task, exited the room and closed the door, leaving the space entirely to the nine people inside.
"Captain Jay is too polite... And the others are?"
At Captain Jay's arrangent, Liens sat in the empty main seat, then politely inquired.
Although he knew that these seven people were high-ranking mbers of the Divine Wind Adventurer Group and had fought them in the instance, he had never t them in reality. Pleasereadthischapteronitsoriginalplatform—*.
And since he was currently on soone else's territory and accepting their hospitality, a simple greeting was considered basic etiquette.
Hearing Liens's inquiry, the high-ranking mbers of the Divine Wind Adventurer Group imdiately gave Liens a brief self-introduction, including Captain Jay who also stated his full na.
Jay Orlando.
Liens could sense that Captain Jay's emotions were stable, and there was no feeling of him lying, indicating that it was highly likely he was not deceiving him about his na.
And people with surnas were either nobles now or had noble ancestors; this was a tacit rule in this small kingdom region, including the Hartwin Kingdom.
He had also learned this unwritten rule from books.
Out of curiosity, Liens asked Captain Jay, "Is Captain Jay a noble?"
"It's just that my ancestors were prominent; my family had already been stripped of their noble title before I was born."
As if he had been asked many tis, Captain Jay replied indifferently.
Sensing that although Captain Jay appeared indifferent, a fire had already ignited in his heart—that fire was not anger, but a sense of mission.
So Liens asked with even more curiosity, "Are the noble standards of the Neil Kingdom so high that even with your strength, Captain Jay, you can't beco a noble?"
"Mr. Heier is not from the Neil Kingdom, are you...? The kingdom has been peaceful for many years, and all the territories have long been divided up."
"Now, to beco a noble, one must either perform great deeds for the kingdom or beco a second-tier Extraordinary One like yourself."
"My talent is limited, and I've long given up on that idea."
Captain Jay replied calmly.
He lied.
Liens smiled and did not continue the conversation on that topic.
Whether for fa or for profit, one must always find sothing to live for, otherwise, a monotonous and repetitive life will infinitely magnify the loneliness within.
