Chapter 1034. Slaughter Blade

“Things became a lot calmer in the village,” Mina told him over dinner.

“Really?” Seth asked surprised. Although he did make an example of the croaking Cricket, or whatever his name was, he didn't expect the cultivators to tone it down. Master Mountain had told him that they were usually very stubborn. With the many different factions now mingling on Urth, it was hard to believe they were able to hold back.

“I exchange, the mountain range outside of our influence seems to have become pretty rowdy,” Bulko added, sipping on his cocktail. Seth raised an eyebrow, it was always a spectacle seeing the massive man with a liking for special drinks, sipping from colorful cocktail glasses.

“Although it's not perfect, isn't it better when they take care of their business outside? If they want to kill each other, who are we to stop them?” the blacksmith asked, also taking a sip.

“If it was only that. We are having more and more reports about merchant caravans being attacked,” Mina sighed.

“Not just that, they are blatantly blaming it on people of “the dark faction” or “the fiend path” or whatever. Like, do they think we are stupid? They are clearly the criminals, but they act like there is some ominous evil force that is to blame for everything...” Lyxiss ranted, clearly intoxicated.

“Are you sure?” Seth asked a little confused as to why someone would act like that.

“Yeah! They blame people who have clear witnesses for being somewhere else and don't even bother hiding the blood on their swords, so to speak. They even try to sell the stolen goods!” the elf exclaimed, slamming her fist on the table.

“Pff, yeah, they call us Savages, but they don't even have an idea that all the stuff traded on Urth has meticulous records and serial numbers that identify it,” Ray added, shaking his head.

“How are the people with recommendations faring?” Seth asked for the natives from the worlds of the Pathworks. After all, they would have to face a similar culture shock, yet he heard little about problems with them.

“Quite well actually. Although the adventurers are a little rowdy sometimes, Bryce is keeping a tight grip on who he actually gives the pass to. Same with the System Church. They know it's them losing trust if they let troublemakers in,” Mina answered.

“That's good to hear. And the others? Are the cultivators also attacking them?”

Minas Mar advertised the tournament everywhere, but that didn't mean they would let just anyone into the city. In general, people from other worlds would arrive through the the System Church, as its branches were usually located in the middle of a Tree Station, they had to make sure to somehow regulate the people that were allowed to enter the city from there. That was the recommendation system.

There were different rules for the Pythian Village. Since they also expected a lot of spectators and participants, almost everyone was allowed to take residence in the Pythian Village. However, they would have to get there through the land route, mostly traveling from Delta to Little Gamma.

Ray clicked his tongue.

“Not that we would know. They leave the group under the banner of Minas Mar alone, but we have no idea about the others since there are little to no records. Even if we find out that a group of visitors vanished, there is no telling whether it's monsters or people that got them,” he said depressed.

“How far are baker and his people?” Maybe we could make an extra station for the Tree Express, to make sure people from Delta can reach the Pythian Village?” Although this would require some more planning, maybe this was the safer option. It wasn't like they could start patrolling the mountains. That would just spread out their people, making them prone to be picked off.

“I don't know, but it's a good thought. You should call Mary or Leana for stuff like that,” Ray answered. Grabbing his communication orb, as Ray mentioned it, Seth found that he actually had a missed call from Hoen.

Excusing himself, he called the dwarf back. Hoen was currently making preparations using the <Durable Olympian Bronze> Seth had created before setting off for Y-City. He just hoped that the dwarf had not met any problems.

“Seth? You called back quickly!” Hoen answered the call surprised.

“Hey Hoen. Why did you call? Did you meet a problem somewhere?” Seth asked worried.

“No, on the contrary. I called you to let you know that I finished all the stuff you asked for. Everything is ready for the next step,” The dwarf told him with a laugh.

“What, you really...?” “Yep, the warehouse is full of crates now. The guys are already complaining to me, so it would be good if you returned soon and took care of it.”

“I see, alright. I think I can return in a few days. I only have Mike's swords left to make. When the quest is finished, I will return.”

With a smile, Seth returned to the restaurant. As exciting as it was to follow an exotic blueprint and learn something new, it couldn't compare to seeing one's own creations come into reality. With his new experiences from the Slaughterer's Set, he also had a few ideas to refine his previous design.

He was intrigued to hear about new enchantments, but he decided to have a look at the Slaughter Blades first.
