With the death of the fish and the gills obtained, they returned to the cottage where they are welcod by Jaka and Jun.
"We killed the fish terrorizing this area. This is proof that we killed it," Sigma pulled out the [Corrupted Gill] and showed it to Jun.
"We are aware. Jaka and I are watching all of you fighting against the fish as we evaluate whether you guys are really up to the task," Jun sighed and scratches the back of his head.
"So, what is the verdict? Did we qualify?" Sigma looked at Jun and Jaka with a stoic look on her face.
"KIK! Of course, you all passed! It would be crazy of us to say that you guys did not pass since you all did kill the fish easily in a few minutes alone. That is already sothing worthy to call an achievent, KIK!" Jaka started dancing around as he said those words.
"However, you guys shouldn't even make that small achievent of yours go to your head. It might be not an easy achievent to make but that doesn't an you can do anything easily due to that. That is just pure bullcrap," Jun then went to one of the rooms of his house and started to scrounge inside. They cannot see what he was trying to get as the room is dark.
"We know that and we don't have any plans of doing things like that." Sigma crosses her arms and closed her eyes while waiting for Jun to re-erge from the room.
It took a few minutes before he went out carrying so jackets that resemble the jackets Inuit people wear. The only difference is that they are all in the shiny color black. He brought out enough of them for everyone to wear.
"This is the reward that you guys will receive. You all have been here from the orders of Almira right?"
"You know Miss Almira?" Chase asked though it was clear everyone was also surprised by the revelation.
"Sure do. She is an old friend of mine from many years ago. However, I will not bother to tell you all our history. She gave you all a ti limit to procure all of those ingredients right? Then, take these things and get moving already.
Sigma and the others received the rewards and the quest rewards from the quest that was previously labeled as a bunch of question marks are now revealed. Sigma looked at the jacket thoroughly first. She started to caress the jacket slowly and was very satisfied by the softness and warm temperature of the jacket. Still, she is not sure if this was just a normal jacket and decided to open the nu description of the item.
[Ice Age Coat]
Type: Extra Trinket Equipnt
Tier: Ancient
Level 100
Special Ability: Once worn by the player, the temperature will never drop, and will only have the temperature remains warm enough for the user. Will make the user immune to freeze and Frostbite Debuff as long as this equipnt is equipped. Useful and necessary in places that have below zero degrees of temperature.
Info: During the Ice Age, so of the early magicians decided to utilize their abilities to keep their coats warm and capable of giving them the warmth to survive the harsh Ice Age. The only problem is that the process of creating these things is lost over ti and only a small amount of jackets remain these days. Obtaining one is already considered a big blessing.
Note: Now you only need to make a snowman!
"Are you sure about these as rewards? Just from the tier alone, we can tell it is sothing priceless!" Dolly can't help it, and despite her eyes sparkling in delight, she also can't just take it as nothing.
"No worries. We don't need it and I know it is an ancient item but that is sothing collecting dust in our storage room. I would rather give them to soone who can use them rather than let them sit without anyone using it."
"In that case, we will be taking it. Thank you very much."
"Oh yeah, let guess. She asked you to get sothing called [The Star's Eye] right?"
Sigma turned to look at him with a furrowed eyebrow. "You know what she is about to make?"
"Yeah. There is only one thing that needed a [Corrupted Gills] and [The Star's Eye] as ingredients alongside a few more things. Let remind you all, the task given to you will be a very dangerous one. You might think that it was easy just now, but that doesn't an it will remain easy until the very end. Things will get harder and I can assure all of you that the procurent process of [The Star's Eye] will not be an easy thing. Trust , I have been there. Now, for this next ingredient, go to the Cave of Freezing Maw, you will find what you all needed to find. Go there as fast as you guys can, ti is running out. I will not hold you all any longer."
"Thank you very much. We will be going now."
Sigma turned around and left, the others also followed suit and the cabin is once again empty with only the Jun and Jaka alone.
"Now then, tie up again, and let's continue the training."
Jaka can only shake his head but pulls out a rope anyways though that is sothing Sigma and the others will not know.

Now that the first ingredient is obtained, the second quest appeared, filling them with the information for the next ingredient they needed to receive and where to get it.
...
[The Perilous Errand (II)]
Info: With the first ingredient obtained, the next ingredient is called [The Star's Eye], a precious stone that has been embedded in a Golem made of diamond. [The Star's Eye] is also the main core of the golem and retrieving it from the golem will also kill the golem imdiately. However, because the core is a brittle core compared to its body, the mont the core is broken, the quest will also fail in its entirety. Proceed to the deepest labyrinth of the Cave of the Freezing Maw to et with the target.
Objective: [The Star's Eye] obtained: 0/1
Reward: ????, and 3 million EXP, and a treasure of your choice.
Failure: If [The Star's Eye] has been destroyed or damaged.
...
"I see treasure!" Dolly is excited.
"Well, duh. With a golem inside a cave or a labyrinth, the treasure will be the most obvious thing it is protecting on why it is currently there. Though that is not what we should be worried about," Hagane imdiately interrupts Dolly.
Sigma turned to look at Hagane. "Are you fine now, Hagane?"
"Huh?" Hagane was startled by the sudden question Sigma to him that caught him off guard.
"Well yes, I am fine. But why did you ask?"
"You were clearly not at your best during our battle against the fish so I was worried you are still nervous or afraid. We needed all the help we can get and we can't afford you to remain in that kind of behavior forever, you will drag everyone down especially since you are a Paladin. Iron might be the most defensive Paladin between the two of you but that doesn't an he can protect everyone."
"Ah, yes. I am sorry for earlier and how useless I was in the last battle but I already recovered and we are far from the water this ti around. You can rest assured that I will be performing my job without fail this ti."
Sigma nodded before she throws the small item that turned into the carriage that they were riding from earlier. She raised her hands and the two snakes, Alpha, and Beta approached.
"The sa job as earlier. You two know the rules and so do I."
The two snakes already know what their owner wanted to do and they quickly perform their jobs. The quest will still take a bit longer but they are progressing as much as they can possibly do in their own power.

Almira is currently sitting on a chair, taking a break from all the stuff she was making for the raid. She is working nonstop and she does not know how long was she stuck inside the forging room. To remove the accumulating stress, she decided to pop out so smokes as a ans to alleviate her mood though she rarely smokes. This ti around she has to do it just to keep relaxed and steady with work.
While smoking, Queen Tori arrived and entered the forging room, knocking on the open door to notify her arrival.
"Can I co in?"
Almira nonchalantly looked at the door and noticed that it was Queen Tori, she just cocked her head back and pop another smoke before responding, "Sure."
Queen Tori entered the room, not minding Almira smoking at all.
"You seem fine slling smoke for a royalty."
"Don't worry about it, I also smoke too but for the sake of keeping our bodies warm when things get really cold, and only by smoking will alleviate the whole freezing temperature invading our body."
"I see. So? What brings you here, your majesty? If you are checking up on the weapons, they are all there on the side. No worries, they are top quality items."
"I am not here for them. I needed to talk to you personally. It's all about King Arthur."
When the na was dropped, Almira paused for a mont. She clearly has sothing on King Arthur but it seems like this will spark so conversation."
"What is this you are going to talk about. Make it quick, I am going back to my job."
"You are planning to kill King Arthur, no?"
