Chapter 81: Getting Information From The Guildhall

"I don't want to ruin your mood by asking my question first, so you first."

"Okay then," Nero cleared his throat and looked at Sophia.

"How does it feel— kissing and doing things… in a relationship with a boy thousands of years younger than you?" Nero asked Sophia.

"What's with that question. You are making it sound like something immoral."

Sophia looked at the serious look on Nero's face and sighed, "I honestly don't know what to say. But I guess it feels normal?"

"I want to ask 'Define normal', but never mind. Ask your question now."

"Why did you ask me that question?" 

Nero squinted his eyes and asked with a confused look on her face, "That was your question?"

"No, my question is different, but I want to know why you asked me that question."

After a brief silence, Nero uttered, "Elise. I just want to make sure I am not ruining her life."

"Hmm? You and Elise are a thing now?" Sophia raised her brows.

"Emilia didn't tell you? I am pretty sure she saw me kissing Elise."

Yesterday evening, when Nero was kissing Elise on the balcony, Emilia came looking for Nero and saw him kissing Elise. She watched them for a while and went back to the room, so Nero assumed she would inform Sophia.

"Well, Whatever," Sophia rolled her eyes and asked, "Why are you worried about Elise?"

"It's nothing. I need to find my weapons as soon as possible and end everything. Then spent the rest of our lives in peace."

"Back to my question. I want to ask why you didn't stop Emilia from assaulting you?"

"Huh?"

"The first time, you said Emilia forced herself on you. You could have easily stopped her if you wanted, but you didn't and let her assault you for 12 hours."

"It's hard to believe that," She added.

After thinking for a while, Nero spoke, "Maybe I wanted her to do that to me? Don't tell Emilia, but I was horny after seeing her naked body, and I actually wanted her to do something to me."

"...." Sophia sighed sharply and said, "Horny over a dead body?"

"No. I was talking about her beauty." Nero shook his head and walked to the door, saying, "Your thoughts have been corrupted by Emilia."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

They both left the room and made their way downstairs. On the way, they saw Emilia coming back upstairs.

Emilia stared back and forth at Nero and Sophia and squinted her eyes, "You two did a quickie?"

Nero scoffed and gazed at Sophia after pointing his finger at Emilia, "I was talking about this."

They ate lunch, and later Nero asked the chef to pack some food for their trip. 

Nero instructed Sophia to make a contract about the revenue share of the inn and talk business with the previous owner of the inn.

Emilia was waiting for Nero to say something to her as well, so he asked her to help Sophia, and he prepared to leave for the guildhall.

"We will leave as soon as I come back." When Nero reached the guildhall, he noticed it was as crowded as it was yesterday. He walked to the same counter as yesterday and waited for the other adventurers to leave.

"Huh? Where did the woman from yesterday go?" Nero asked as he took out his universal guild card.

"She was feeling sick right after you left, so she went home— and haven't come today," the man replied.

"Well, whatever," Nero took out some crystals from his pocket and said, "I would like some exchange,"

"Sure," the man collected the crystals in a bucket and started checking them.

Nero took out some more crystals and threw them in the bucket.

"Uhh…" The man watched as Nero kept taking out crystals from his pocket and eventually filled the entire bucket.

"How big is your pocket?" The man asked with a puzzled and confused look on his face.

"Big that you can imagine."

"There is no way this many crystals can fit in such a small pocket," the man remarked.

Nero was creating crystals and making it look like he was taking them out from his pocket.

"Ever been with a woman before?" Nero asked.

The man nodded in reply.

"Ever slept with one?"

The man nodded again.

"Ever wondered how it fits inside? Unless yours is too small to realize it," Nero snickered.

The man's face looked like he was about to cry, so Nero stopped and asked the man to give him money in exchange for the crystals.

"That will be 242,419 gold coins."

"Just like that? DOn't you need to check the affinity and whatever like you did yesterday?"

"You are now a verified merchant of the guilds." The man pointed his finger at Nero's universal guildcard and said, "You will get the title of 'Crystal Merchant' when you update your guild card."

Nero gave his guild card to the man to fill the amount and update it.

"By the way, what are these crystals used for— and what purpose?" Nero questioned.

"They are used to store mana, as well as for increasing mana in people with the low amount of mana," the man answered.

"Hmm? How do they increase someone's mana with the help of crystals?"

"They feed on crystals,"

"..."

'Normal humans shouldn't eat them as energy drinks,' Nero sighed to himself.

"I have one more question. What is on the east?" 

Nero planned to go to the east to kill the fallen god and get the 'resurrection' skill that might be useful to him in the future. Although, his main goal was to get the information from the god before killing him.

"Capital," the man answered.

"Yes, this is the capital, And what is on the east?" Nero asked again.

"Capital,"

"Why are you—! Wait, there are two capitals?"

The man nodded and said, "The old capital, and a new capital."

"I see," Nero bit his fingernail and wondered, "So this one is the new capital since it has been maintained well."

"No, this is the old capital," the man asserted.

Nero sighed and turned to the man, "What is after the capital then?"

"Uhh.. sea?"

"And after that?"

"There is a small continent— though it's so small that it's considered as an island rather than a continent."

'So this fallen god is falling on a falling island?'

Nero then lowered his voice and asked, "Actually, I need something from you. If you help me, you can have all my money."

"What is it?"

"The guildhall has all the information of all the guilds as well as all the adventures, right?" Nero whispered.

"Yeah," The man nodded and shook his head, "But I can't give you any information about anything; That's the moral law of my job."

"No one will know about it. I just need information on one person. And I will give you as much money as you want. I will make you so rich that you won't even need to do this job and spend the rest of your life in luxury."

The man glanced around and gulped as he nodded, "What do you want?"

"I want all the information and the last location— and if possible, the current location of the shit named 'Darius'."
