ACT 1 Slums

Huk huk huk, Ive finished.

Already?

The old man looked at Ark with amazed eyes.

It should take at least 4 hours to get to the pier and back. Yet you returned from that place overrun with dangerous monsters after just 1 hour and with my luggage?

It sounded urgent so I hurried as much as possible.

Ill say this clearly. But I honestly didnt expect that much from you. In regards to transportation work, there are always small and large problems. In particular, its not a surprise to be attacked by thieves or monsters. Of course, I can ask the garrison to look for it but it would take many days for them to accept my commission. Since it is on a very tight schedule and is an urgent delivery, I had no choice but to rely on a foreigner.

The old man seemed to be complaining as he shook his head.

But youre different from the lazy foreigners in this area. Even if they accept my request, they would take many hours to do it. Since they always receive a lot of commissions so they would complete the most urgent one first.

I place customer satisfaction as my top priority.

Although he was breathing hard, Ark tried to make the best impression as possible. The old man nodded and said.

I know, I know. Even though I doubted you, I never thought that you could find the luggage so quickly. It is the first time Ive met a sincere foreigner like you. Now, this is the reward Ive promised.

Thank you very much.

Clink, clink.

Ark spoke thankful words but he had tears in his eyes as he saw the coins.He had ran around for 1 and a half hours and all he received was 50 silver. He could earn more than that hunting one or two monsters and selling japtem.Anyway, an information window appeared after he received the compensation.

-You have completed the <Find the lost luggage at the pier> quest.

Compensation: 50 silver, +1000 experience, +7 fame
