Chapter 344: Jin´s information and rescue request

Chapter 344: Jin ́s information and rescue request

Tuesday...it was a long day. Midnight, but when I logged in I was in Liebling.

Then came the report from the Adventurer's Guild that the iron sand steel had arrived. Later, I received word from Hephaestus that Bran's shield was complete. No naming this time. I will appraise it.

Star Frost Shield: Rarity 9, Shield, Quality A

Weight: 40 Durability: 300 Defense: 125

Additional effects: starlight, star blessing, protection, impact absorption

A shield that contains the power of the stars. This shield is said to prevent all kinds of abnormalities, answer the user's wish to protect and perform miracles. Because it is a powerful shield, it is selective about its wielder.

It seems that the recoil was not caused by the magic sword, but by the crystal stone. How bad is this material? Bran immediately picked it up to see how it felt to use it.

"It's great...I'll show you that it can block any attack!"

"It was worth the effort. But please don't be reckless like Lily, okay? When I saw Est Oracion with very little durability left, it made my blood boil"

Yeah, I saw that one...no, I'll have to get it repaired so I can show it to you eventually.

"In case you were wondering, Lily was sitting on her ass the whole time with Setia"

...I'm safe, right? And I stopped her properly! Then comes Lily and Setia. Is it my imagination that Lily's eyes are empty?

"Takuto-sama? May I speak with you about the Est Oracion?"

"Sorry...it's an emergency right now. We'll talk about it properly later, but right now you'll have to wait"

"What's going on?"

The desert town Nefert has been attacked by monsters...probably deliberately"

This startled Setia, Bran and Hephaestus.

"Is it true?"

"It's true. I'm on my way to confirm it. Lily, let's go"

"Y, Yes! I'm going!"

Then Setia and Bran stood up.

"I need to make sure it's true, so please take me with you"

I don't trust you. But I'll allow it.

"My Lord. Me too"

"Bran is no good. I understand your desire to use your new weapon, but I can't let you go in there with angel"

Worst case scenario, we could start with a battle.

"...I understand"

Good girl. I asked Hephaestus to make an ice sword for Ion. Since it is his first time using this material and since it is a magic sword, after conferring with Setia, he said it will take five days.

The members are Lily, Setia, Koihi, Nowa and Cinth. I'm sure everyone is anxious to see it.

When we arrived at Nefert, there was already no enemy in sight and the town was in tatters. No redo...damn!

"Takuto..."

"...It's okay. What's past is past. Let's do what we can for now"

I looked around town and was approached by a voice. It was Caro-san.

"Takuto-dono! Thank God...you're safe"

The magic lamp? Why would they go after the lamp when Jin, the lamp owner, is here? But now I know why Aladdin was kidnapped.

"You don't think they were after Aladdin because of that lamp, do you?"

"They even went to the trouble of taking it from him. It's an abomination"

You don't think they are kidnapping children because they were looking for Aladdin? No, that's still odd. It's not a reason to use slave collars.

Now, what to do...

"...What happens to Aladdin, the kidnapped children and the subhumans...is up to you"

Eh...it's up to me? It's not pressure...can I handle it? But I can't find people...ah.

"Ah!"

That's right! I have an item that allows me to find people. The item that found the hidden Finist...the tracking weathervane.

"Huh. You noticed...you saw the enemy's strength, right?"

"Yes...I'm going to ask you no...will you join me in the fight?"

"I can't do that...I only fight when Aladdin is involved. I'm still a demigod"

Impossible...but I don't know any demon god who would give me a hint, no matter how much it's for Aladdin's sake.

"...What is it? You're trying to say something, aren't you?"

"Nothing~"

"Don't you dare make that Aladdin smirk on your face!"

He's pissed... but it made me feel better...now I'll be able to sleep comfortably.

"Ready? Aladdin and the others should be safe until tomorrow. You have until then to decide"

A time limit has been added to the quest. Excellent.

"Ah. I'll give you what you want"

"Huh"

When I come back, Lily and the others look at me.

"Takuto...you have a different vibe than before"

"...You prefer someone like that guy?"

"I, It's different, isn't it? Takuto-oniichan"

"...I doubt it"

What are you talking about...these girls. Then Cinth pats me on the head.

"I think there is"

There isn't!

"Stop talking nonsense and let's go home"

"Are you sure? Takuto"

"Yeah. I've got a good idea where the enemy is. We're going to set it up tonight"

Hearing this, Lily and the others all nodded their heads. Then I sent an email to the guild members and logged out.

To anyone who can get into the Sandwall Desert this evening. I need your help with a tricky quest

If I don't need to bother with player restrictions in the guild's quest requirements, I feel free to rely on everyone else. I'm sure I won't be able to handle it on my own, given the difficulty level.
