Chapter 468 Getting In Touch With A Smith

~~~(POV: Hailey Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: Dungeon Retooks Hideout)~~~

~~~(Time: 4:33 PM)~~~

"You were underwhelming... And I'm disappointed..."

Retook wasn't even a challenge to fight, and he died after about 6 minutes of straight combat. I expected more, but I guess that means it's over.

I walk over to the many drops that Retook has provided at his death. The one that sticks out the most is the other half of my tier-up item.?

The second I pick it up, it tells me the same thing the last message told me that I need the other half and an Epic Grade smith or higher.?

"Dad still hasn't gotten back to me about his content inside Steel Legion, but he wouldn't go too long until he gives me an update."

I've leveled up twice, and now I'm on the last stretch of my current tier-up quest. Which means there is no longer any need for me to stay in this dungeon. Or anywhere near Techart.

My next destination should be wherever dad sends me, but until I know where that is, I should head to the place where I'm most familiar right now. The nearest Capital City is Avalon, and that is where I'm going.

~~~(Time: 5:08 PM)~~~

I've made some progress in finding my last tier-up quest, and I didn't expect it to be this difficult for my 4th tier-up quest.?

My next destination is a City called Zariks, about 500 miles south of The Kingdom of Avalon. I don't know shit about Zariks. All I know is I've heard its name a few times, and that it's my next place.

"When I get there, I have no idea what to do... I'll probably have to talk with someone and find out where they are, which is the worst part about all this."

I don't like having to figure out who I need to talk to. It's a long and arduous process, but that's part of the process.?

All of a sudden, I get a message from Sally.

[I'm done with my latest tier-up quest, one more, and I can start looking for my father. I'm heading to Capital City Avalon for a bit since I need to get there to start my last one. I don't know where you are at the moment, but I hope things are going well for you!]

Well, well... Sally is on her way here, and it'd be rude to just leave when I know she'll be here by tomorrow, and I'll be shameless in admitting that I need some. It's been a while since we had a chance, and I'm like an addict when it comes to physical activity with her. I need another hit before too-long passes.

[That's awesome, I'm in Capital City Avalon right now, and I'm more than happy to wait for you so we can spend some time together before we split up again. I've missed you and your touch, Sally...]

I'm being real upfront with her right now cause I'm feining for some action with her right now. I'd love to spend a night and a day with her in bed to get my fix until we meet up again.

<br/>It doesn't take but 30 seconds for me to get a response from her.

[Don't go anywhere! I'll be there early tomorrow morning, and I'm ready to see you again. You have no idea how much I've missed you. Better be prepared for when I get there.]

She doesn't know how great it is to hear that from her. I'm curious about what the others are doing, but I'm not going to bug them. If they wanted to talk at this very moment, they'd contact me too. They've done it before.

~~~(Time: 6:07 PM)~~~

I can't believe that Cera and I get to meet up before we're done with everything! This is so exciting! It's already been a long time since we got to see each other, and I'm not sure how long it would've been before I next met up.

But now we're meeting up, and from the sounds of it, we're going to be busy. I'm in need of him, too. It's just not something that women like to admit. I'm one of those people.

I never thought I'd feel this way about a person, but Cera has created something I never had before. Speaking of our situation of being apart, I can't help but dread that we'll only have about a day together. We're both really busy.

"Miss, would you like a dinner menu?"

I'm currently in the cafeteria, and I'm ready to eat. He gives me a menu and takes off while I take my time selecting.

Back flying in the luxury style, and dad has gotten into contact with me. The Steel Legion is based in Avalon. The same place where all the major guilds are based. He said there would be someone waiting for me at the docks when I get there.

"Daddy always comes through for me..."

I don't know who I'd be if it weren't for Daddy... All the good things about me are from the love and care he's shown me. I changed from many things, but him not protecting me anymore was the best thing he ever did for me.

"I'll have to get him something special the next time I see him. He deserves something great after all the things he's done. Being a parent is a thankless job."

I'm skipping on getting Mom a present... For reasons... That are obvious. While we're in a much better place now, Dad was the only one that loved me there for a while. And I still resent that a bit.

The bubble bath I'm in is making things easier for me. I needed this moment to relax. Fighting is easy, but traveling isn't. It's so tedious and annoying. Something that I really hate.

'Follow current novels on n0velbin.com.',

Cera and I are the same that way. He doesn't like traveling, and having wings takes some of the hate of traveling off of him.?

Speaking of my little brother, I should get into contact with him.

[Hey Cera, I thought I'd let you know that I'm on my way to Capital City Avalon. I'll be there by tomorrow morning and meeting with the Steel Legion guild. If you have any advice for me, let me know.]

I don't know where Cera is currently, and I doubt he'll tell me.?

It takes a few minutes, but he gets back to me.

[The Steel Legion is one of the best guilds and is full of powerful Players. But beware of their leader. Don't let him bully you around, and be sure to stand your ground. They will try to emotionally manipulate you into believing you have a debt. Just get what you need from them, and forget them.]

I've never seen Cera talk about anything like this. The Steel Legion must be full of Players that are shrewd and influential.?

[Thanks, Cera. I appreciate the help. And don't think I've forgotten about the pranks you've pulled. I'm getting you back for those.]

There isn't a being in the entire universe that will stop me from getting my prank revenge on Cera, and he better believe that I've been thinking up ideas for how to get him back for all this. Cause I'm not letting this go by unabated.

[I wouldn't expect that you would, but don't think that you're clever enough to be unpredictable. I'll be ready for whatever you decide to do.]

His challenging message fuels me further. The next time I see him, I'm going to start concocting my great plan, and there isn't a single way that he can see what I'm planning.
