Chapter 146: Join the Mercenary Group, Dark Elves
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
The headquarters of the Mage Union in this mission was in the King’s city of Inmotati, which happened to be the same goal as Joelson’s.
This was a double-A rank escort mission, but very few people were interested in it.
After observing for a while, Joelson realized that it was because the reward of the mission was too little.
Normally, the reward of a double-a class mission was more than 100,000 gold coins, but this mission only had 30,000 gold coins, which was why no one had accepted the mission yet.
However, Joelson didn’t care about the reward. He intended to accept the mission.
However, the mission requirements made him frown slightly.
The number of escorts needed to be more than six people, and there must be at least two mercenaries whose strength was above a rank.
No wonder no one was willing to accept it.
Mercenaries whose strength had reached a rank could earn at least 30,000 gold coins or more for a mission.
Although this double A-rank mission was simple, the reward was too little.
Two A-rank mercenaries plus the remaining 30,000 gold coins, very few people would be interested in it.
Joelson was interested, but he couldn’t accept it.
Firstly, because he only had one person, and secondly, because his mercenary level was only E-rank.
Joelson fell into deep thought in front of the mission board.
He was thinking about how to find two A-rank mercenaries who were willing to accept this mission and let him join them to work together.
“He’s here!”
A surprised voice sounded behind Joelson.
The voice was somewhat familiar. Joelson turned his head and saw Clayton with a bunch of dark circles under his eyes.
There were a few tall and strong men behind Clayton.
When he saw Joelson, Clayton pounced on him as if he was his own father.
“I’ve finally found you!”
Hewlett walked up and looked at Joelson from top to bottom. His gaze stopped at the mercenary badge on his chest.
“E-class.”
Hewlett’s brows were tightly knitted together. He looked at Clayton from the corner of his eyes. The joints of his palms were cracking.
“Clayton, are you kidding me?”
Clayton quickly shouted, “Hewlett, don’t forget, he’s from another continent. He hasn’t been verified yet. It’s normal for him to be evaluated as an E rank.”
Hewlett stopped and thought about it. It made sense.
He turned to look at Joelson and asked, “What’s your strength?”
Jolson could already tell that this Hewlett was a tier-8 knight. His mercenary rating had also reached grade-A, fulfilling the conditions of the partner he was looking for.
Hence, he answered casually, “Probably at tier-8.”
Hewlett raised his eyebrows, clearly not believing it.
Jolson looked too young.
Clayton pulled Hewlett aside and avoided Jolson, he whispered, “An adventurer who came to the central continent alone must be strong. Don’t be too picky. Don’t think that I don’t know that your dead mage companion was only at tier 6.”
Hewlett’s face was gloomy. He thought for a while, then nodded and said, “I hope he isn’t an idiot who brags too much.”
Clayton was very happy when he saw Hewlett agree to it.
“Then that’s it. From now on, we’re even!”
Hewlett was too lazy to say anything to him. He turned his head and said seriously to Joelson, “I, Hewlett, officially invite you to join us, the Sword and Rose mercenary group.”
Joelson was stunned. He didn’t expect that before he even mentioned this idea, the other party had already invited him to join.
Without hesitation, Joelson agreed and said, “Yes, but I have a condition.”
“Go ahead.”
Joelson pointed at the double-a mission on the wooden board and said, “I hope we can accept this mission.”
Hewlett stared at Joelson with a strange expression for a long time. Then, he strode to the wooden board and tore off the parchment with the double-a mission written on it.
“Are you sure you didn’t eavesdrop on our conversation?”
Hewlett looked at Joelson and asked.
Joelson frowned and asked, “What do you mean?”
Hewlett shook the parchment in his hand and said, “We came for this mission. No, to be precise, this mission was issued by our Sword and Rose mercenary group.”
Joelson was very surprised. He didn’t expect such a coincidence.
But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was very reasonable.
Only a shrewd old mercenary like Hewlett would give a mere 30,000 gold coins for a double-A rank mission.
And the requirements were so many.
At least two mercenaries above grade A, just to escort an item.
What item was so valuable?
Joelson didn’t continue to think about it. He only wanted to follow the Sword and Rose mercenary group to the king’s city.
The rest had nothing to do with him.
“Let’s make it clear in advance.”
Hewlett said to Joelson, “Since you’re already a member of the mercenary group, then even if this group mission is completed, you won’t be able to get 30,000 gold coins as a reward.”
As he spoke, Hewlett shook the parchment in his hand. Speaking of money, this strong knight acted like a miser.
Joelson nodded and said, “Okay.”
He didn’t care whether there was a reward or not. He didn’t care about this little bit of money. After all, he would leave the mercenary group when he arrived at the King’s city.
Hewlett was very satisfied with Joelson’s attitude of ignoring money. He patted Joelson’s shoulder and said, “Very good. Next, I’ll take you to the others in the gradual progress group.”
Clayton saw that the two of them had reached an agreement happily. He breathed a sigh of relief and took advantage of Hewlett’s lack of attention to slip away quickly.
Joelson followed Hewlett to a small hotel in the city.
Joelson glanced at everyone, and suddenly his pupils contracted slightly.
He saw a very beautiful female archer. She was slender and fit, but that was not the main point. The main point was that her ears were abnormally long.
Elf?!
She was different from the elves that Joelson had seen before. This female elf’s hair and pupils were dark purple, as deep as the night.
“Hmph!”
Perhaps it was because Joelson’s gaze had lingered on her for too long, the female elf snorted discontentedly and glared at him coldly.
Hewlett quickly pulled on Joelson’s sleeve and reminded him in a low voice, “Darlene is a dark elf. I hate it when people look at her like that.”
Joelson nodded.
Only then did he realize that he was in the central continent and not the southern region.
Elves, orcs, dwarves, and many other races, like humans, were the common owners of this continent.
Unlike the southern region, there were only humans.
“Guys, look who I brought.”
Hewlett clapped his hands and attracted the attention of the people sitting in the hall. He pointed at Joelson and said, “A noble magician!”
Obviously, the new companions of Joelson were not very friendly to him. Except for a beautiful girl who smiled gently at him, the others all looked at him coldly.
Joelson was also looking at the people.
Seventh, seventh, sixth, eighth.
