Chapter 128: A Request From The Guild
"Urgh, what a pleasant night," Alros exclaimed, looking at his three new sex slave slash bed warmer. Last night had been vigorous for the trio, who is currently sleeping. He would have his clones move them to another bed while the other women will clean the mess.
"I do hope I will get more," he said to himself mostly, as he exited the system space. After all, it is simple math, more women, more LP. Of course, there are more to it but he want to give his male slave a piece of the action as well, even if they are less effective than the clones.
After all, a clone of the male slaves will took merely a day to be born into adulthood, while his took a whole week, so, it is better to have them. And to keep them, he need to make sure they all have the essentials, as well as entertainment. The former settler girls make a good entertainment for a bunch of hormonal males, or he think so.
Still, he digress. He should washed himself before heading to the Adventire Guild. Maybe there would be some interesting missions for him to take.

"Your performance has been excellent so far. If you want, you can take another promotion," Alros shook his head at the suggestion.
"Maybe when I am more experience. It is one thing to handle D-rank mission. It is another to handle C-rank one's," the receptionist laughed aloud.
"You are right. I wish more adventurers have your common sense, this will help reducing the death tolls. Just yesterday, four group died. They must have found something scary and either think they can handle it or were killed before they could do anything,"
The sudden change in the subject cause Alros to sweat. After all, he had been the one responsible for their death, but he could not tell the man know, could he?
"Oh well, so, the same as yesterday?" the other man asked, Alros nodded, eager to get out of the dangerous topic.
"Let's add more difficulty," he decided. After all, more difficult missions tend to pay well, and he still need to be both cautious and bold. Besides, he already done medium difficulty D-ranks for quite some time. Sooner or later, he would have to do high difficulty D-ranks.
"Let see, here we go," unlike other Adventure Guild's branches, the one near Marsh of Torim, or well, any branches near any danger zones will work on a different rules. Instead of having regular mission boards for all missions, only E-ranks or those that is exclusively outside the Danger Zone will be on the mission boards.
As for any missions that will force the adventurers to enter the Danger Zone, it will be handled by the large group of receptionists, or, if you are high ranking adventurers, you will a personal staff to do the job for you.
This to make sure there will be as few casualties as possible, as life is precious in those parts, especially adventurers or those who defended against the monsters of the Danger Zone.
While he did not have a personal staff, his receptionist, or as many adventurers referred to them as handlers, would make sure there are enough missions, as well as give out the missions depending on the strength of the individuals or party.
Because of this, they are intimate to the adventurers' achievement, and able to give out the appropriate missions for them. The receptionist already put down 5 different papers, each having high-difficulty D-rank missions on them.
"Let see, I take this and this," he took two papers, earning a nod as the man said, "Make sense. The distance between the two missions are not too far, so it will be easier for you,"
As Alros about to leave, the receptionist stopped him, "Actuallt, while you are eat it," the man handed him another paper.
"This is an investigation mission. There had been some missing adventurers in that area for quite some time. While it would not be too groundbreaking, considering the danger of the swamp, it starting to get suspicious with how the number of the missing suddenly get high. your m,vle mpyr source
We are not sure what is the cause, but there is a possibility of there being powerful monsters in the area. You're job is to investigate and learned the identity of the culprit. Of course, we don't expect you to fight such monsters, he can even take out a group of C-ranks if we believe he cause all the death in the area.
Try to see, even get a glimpse if it is not possible and then book it. Who knew what will happen if you fought such monster," Alros nodded. He don't plan on throwing his life away, anyway.
But he should make some stop, in case the monster is too strong for him.

"Smoke bombs, clay grenades, as well as torches. Why do you need these many anyway? Aside from going into the Marsh of Torim," the elderly man, the owner of the shop, asked.
"A mission could go awry, so this is in case of the worst case scenario," Alros answered, earning an understanding nod from the man.
"Understandable. In that case, good luck,"
"Thank you,"
Alros head towards the gate, prepared to face of against the monster. Well, after he was done with his other missions.

"Well, there is no doubt this will be difficult for D-ranks. Thankfully, my true strength is C-ranks," he said to himself, pulling out spear and impaled another monsters. His second mission, the one he is currently doing, is to destroy a swarm of Swamp Mosquitoes.
They are not much of an issue, if you have fire spells in your arsenal. If not, it will be a lot harder. Thankfully, he learned fire spells, Demonic Fire in case of such scenario. He easily killed them and grab their Mana Cores.
Thankfully, Mana Cores are not fragile, so even with Demonic Fire, it was not burnt to crisp. After dealing the pesky mosquitoes, he looked at the map of the Swamp.
Thankfully, there are some noticeable landmarks, so it is hard to get lose as long as one is close to such landmarks. The area he supposed to investigate is in the vicinity, so he can easily get there without breaking a sweat.
The only problem would be if the monsters is fast moving and loved to roam. After all, it would be hard for him to defend against a very fast and agile monster, and he could did from such encounter.
"Should I return and told him I don't find the monsters," Alros first thought is to lie. In the end, he decided to do it. Aside from the compensation from the guild, if they are strong enough, he can put the monster into his force.
