Chapter 752: Energy

Walker was fairly happy with the random encounter. He had been worried about the demon's integration in to the kingdom. He was also happy with where it had taken him. He was planning on holding off with the search for the dormant elemental spirits. However, he had been in the Garnet family auction house and been stricken by the thought that they may fiend them often. People were sure to find them and believe they were rare materials. 

On top of all this, he was able to resupply on the elemental mana crystals he needed. This would help awaken the elemental spirits but also give him the ability to start to forge gear with the wandering blacksmith. He wanted to work together on the true spirit forging path with him so that when they went on the mountain forging trip they could both forge together. It was an ideal adventure. 

Once he had left the Garnet Family auction house he aimed himself back at the adventurers guild. He needed to make good o his deal and drop off the orc bodies for dissection. He was sure that the basement would be busy as all else with the pieces of the large orc. The skin was still very tough and sure to fetch a decent price when it came to an auction or just general sales. 

On his way, he kept an eye out and managed to see a demon helping with a courier delivery. Walker wasn't sure why the demon would have a quest that would push him to learn about delivering letters but that wasn't the point. The demon was standing with another apprentice who was helping get the demon up to speed. It was as if they were just another person that had joined as a younger apprentice under them. 

It may have been a brief sight, yet, it was enough to reenergize Walker as he strolled toward the adventurers' guild and through the front door. 

Unsurprisingly, there was a lot of noise. There were party leaders signing up for field patrols and labor jobs. Walker was able to overhear that some of the field rats had started to claim the burned out farm houses as their homes. This made the rebuilding harder because at night they had taken over the spots where supplies were left as nests. 

There was also the fact that the carpenters and crafters did not feel safe without guards and adventurers to watch over them. This lead to more escort and guard quests which the kingdom was funding. It was an expected reaction that they did not overlook. He could hear the positive comments for conistent work and pay. 

Clara was nowhere to be seen but that was to be expected as well. She would be way up in the guild master's office. Before he went to see her he followed the steps he had descended before to the dissection area. 

The noise was significant since the workers had been forced to take over a lot of the butchering work. Many cattle and other farm animals had been taken by the fire and left to rot. These had been found and brought to the other butchers to be dealt with and preserved. Unfortunately, there was too much and it had to be dealt with before it rotted. The adventurers guild had no choice but to take on the additional work. 

"Hero on the floor!" The shout came from one of the workers that happened to be walking by Walker. He had made the call so that someone free would be able to help him out. 

"Hey there, sorry for the mess, We have a lot of work and are running on almost zero sleep. Come to drop off some things from your travels? I heard your fan club talking about a trip to other kingdoms. You should have a lot of monsters hidden away. As long as it isn't any of those bone and zombies it should be fin." The man was talking a mile a minute. Walker wasn't sure what was going on until he saw a brown looking potion hanging on his hip.

' Boosted coffee

Made from beans grown in the demi-human kingdom, this potion is brewed using boiling hold water and roasted coffee beans. The process of infusing mana to the roasted beans causes the stored energy in someone's body to become active. For three hours they will have enhanced agility and feel mentally energized. Afterward, they will become extremely sluggish and tired. This is one of the demi-humans' larges exports to other kingdoms. Not recommended for small children.'

Walker had seen it before as a nobles drink. However, it was news to him that an alchemist could add mana to it and create an effect that boosted agility. The only downside was that there was a downside. He couldn't imagine having such a large drop in energy after. 

"I have some Orc bodies and a few random other monsters. But mostly orc bodies and body parts." Walker followed the man that seemed to be running toward an open are. 

"Here we are. Just drop it here. I will take care of it. Were the orcs tough? If they are we can have them cut and set apart tomorrow. If they aren't then they are for the pigs. Or if they are super tough we can sell them for a lot of money for you. How about it?" Walker had to blink and slow himself down a moment to understand the man. 

"They will be sent to the Garnet family auction house. They will be selling them for me. There are parts of a larger orc in there. Good luck." Walker proceeded to pull everything from his inventory. He knew he couldn't actually feel the weight but he did feel lighter having them gone from his storage. "I will head up to the guild masters' office. I need to check in with my party manager." The man was too consumed with the new monster to take apart that he didn't hear Walkers' farewell.
