40 Mercenary Guild. (1/2)
The next morning, Raven went to inform Count Oliver that they had 'completed' the task, but before they could even reach the village, the 'Demon' had killed everyone else.
Oliver could only sigh and thank Raven for taking care of the matter.
She came back to find Ozul sitting under the shade of the tree watching Blaze practice.
”Start using smaller chunks of Ice...You can control it in large amounts...But your control needs to be more precise.”- Ozul said with some pauses.
Blaze started to turn the Big Ice chunks into smaller ones and threw them around. As expected, controlling the small pieces required more of his focus than the larger ones.
Most of them didn't even hit the tree and fell on the ground! The reason was that the small pieces were more in number, and each one of them required Blaze's attention!
When they were smaller, each small one would require him to create an intent. It was different from Ozul's Ball of Purity because Ozul moved the Ball of Purity just like someone moves their limbs.
Raven went around Blaze and approached Ozul. He had his black hat made up of Ball of Purity to cover his eyes as he asked;
”Did you find out where Mercenary guild is?”- He left the handling of such things mostly to Raven. And when he said 'mostly', he meant every time.
”Yes, one of the closest two is in Capital City while the other is in the opposite direction, in Adron City. ”- Raven explained.
Unfortunately, there was no branch established in the Azmar town, or they wouldn't have to travel to some other City.
”We will go for this... Adron City.”- Ozul did not think twice to decide their destination.
Ozul did not want to settle in the Capital City yet. He could easily attract the Nobles' interest in the future due to his activities that may or may not be unusual.
It's not like his actions won't be noticed in Adron City, but if he did something in the future that could warrant those people to take action, the matter would be dealt with much ease.
Raven did not question his decision and went to prepare things as they would leave today.
Later that day, the trio left the house and began to head to the east towards the Adron City. Ozul walked in front with Raven and Blaze following behind.
The journey took them another half a day, and it went without a hitch. They took a road to the City as they were not really in a hurry.
After half a day, they were walking on the bustling streets of the City. It looked all the same to Ozul, just a little difference in the routes.
Raven took the lead as Ozul did not want to deal with people. He may have started talking a bit more, but he still hates it.
Furthermore, it was around midday, and the blazing heat was killing him! He would never be able to converse normally under such circumstances.
Raven only had to glare at a few passerby's to get the location of the Mercenary Guild.
When they arrived at the place, they saw a huge building. People were standing at the entrance, and the sounds of loud clamor came from inside.
When they entered inside, many people gave them the looks and laughed it off. The smell of alcohol lingered in the air as people ate together in groups.
The trio didn't pay attention to any of this and went straight towards the counter. Behind the bar sat a middle-aged man.
