Chapter 168 - 169 – A bit of peace.
"…"
"Nope." – said the demon lord.
"…"
"Excuse me?" – said ClownFrog.
"Well… I kind of wanted you to relax for the day, before forcing you to work."
"Not only that, you are still new here, so it may be a better idea for you to take a look around the city."
"There is also the fact that you already did some "Job" before meeting up with me. So, yea… Rest up a bit and then tomorrow I will make you work to your bones."
"By the way, here."
Demon lord put several sphere shaped devices as well as 5 more of her sigils.
"These things are communications devices that I will use to send you the tasks. And you will also need some more of my sigils if you are going to run around doing jobs, I will assign you with."
"Anyway, go for now. I have to quickly back to the work."
After…. Well… I was expecting to get some job or something from get go, but nope.
Anyway, after our short talk with the demon lord was concluded, we left the castle and headed to the nearby café.
"So… What was the class book you gave Blueberry anyway?" – asked Swim.
"Oh? That? It's a unique rarity class book called [Toymaker]." – said ClownFrog.
"According to the description, it's a monster making class, bit similar to the golem maker."
"You can create artificial monster."
"For Blueberry, the golem maker had already proven extremely good, even though she didn't had the class for that long."
"But what do you think would happened if we give her unique rarity class with similar concept?"
"I was planning on giving her second class book I saw called [Doll Maker]. Another monster creating class that would work perfectly with golem and doll maker, but I run short on the points."
"I-I get it boss, but I need time to research golems and as for the doll maker, I need time to research and do a lot of experiments with it." – said Blueberry.
"Not only that, for me to use the golem maker performance at 100%, I need a workshop and if not better, just a straight up base."
"She is right. We need a base and if anything, we need a big one at that." – said Oron.
"I say we make our base here and look for a building we can buy or something. This place is a perfect location for setting up a base, since it's a both capital city and it's located in the center of the demonic kingdom."
"But the problem would be with finding a building." – said GreyHunt.
"Many guilds had already brought many buildings for themselves and I don't think even if we do find one that will satisfy us will be cheap."
"It wouldn't be surprising at all if we didn't found anything available."
"He is right. We only just entered this place and we already saw a lot of players walking around on streets. In that first city there were already a lot of players, but this place? Sheesh." – said Rampage.
"Hm… This is very annoying. But I would like to really have our own private workshop or something while we are staying demonic kingdom." – said ClownFrog.
"But If I'm being honest, I want a big base, since we need to think about recruiting new members soon. Even if it a temporarily base, we need a big place."
"We do have a reward panel from the demon lord, so we just need to get to the capital city from time to time to get our rewards and we have the means of taking quest from afar thanks to those communications devices."
"So we may make our base somewhere else, but it would be a great if it would be at least somewhere in some city. But definitely not that first city we were in. Its location isn't very good for us."
"Hm… Wait a moment."
Oron took out a map from his inventory before putting it on the table.
"Maybe we should go one of the cities under the 6 mayor clans' control?" – asked Oron.
"Hm? 5 mayor clans?" – asked Shri.
"Yea. I asked around."
"Apparently, these 6 clans are called "Pillars Of The Liefay Kingdom"."
"All 5 of these clans are mayor figures in the demonic kingdom, beside the demon lord herself."
Endu – City rulled by the vampire clan of Enru.
Ogo – City rulled by another vampire clan called Ogruin.
De'nul – City rulled by a clan of undeads called Ader'lion.
L'o'no – City rulled by a clan of demons called Amo'di.
Ami'do – A second city rulled by another clan of demons called Abmro.
"These 5 cities are controlled by 5 different mayor clans." – said Oron.
"Making our bases in their territories maybe a good idea."
"I honestly suggest that we would make our base in either the city of Ogo or L'o'no since they are the two closest cities to the demonic capital."
"I don't recommend the De'nul or Endu since they are two furthest away settlements from the capital city."
"Hm… I get what you mean, but it may be good idea if we wait a bit and wait tomorrow for the demon lord first job." – said ClownFrog.
"Depending on what it is, we may need all of our remembers to participating or have some of them prepare the base."
"But for now, just relax and look around the city. Maybe they are selling some nice items in this place or something. I will go myself check the auction house bit later."
"Or maybe we will do find some nice place here."
"Anyway, like the demon lord said, for the rest of the day you have day off."
"And you guys."
"?"
"Us?" – asked Lil.
"Yea. Here. Some money for you all. If you don't have enough just messenge me and I will give you some." – said ClownFrog while giving the Lil, Wretch, Howl and Swim some money.
"We were dragging you around nonstop for too long, so today just spend the rest of the day any way you want."
"Since probably tomorrow the demon lord may give us some annoying job, considering how we got welcomed last time with an army of bastards."
"So yea, have fun."
After our little plan of the future and the talk about finding the base was over, each of us went our separate ways.
Honestly speaking, I tried walking around the city calmly, but… Fuck me. The news about us had already spread everywhere and players seem to realize that we aren't fakes.
Fuck me.
I even looked on the internet and apparently our appearance ended up creating more chaos than we though.
There is also that fact that I destroyed army of the fanatics just by myself.
So, yea… Everybody are talking about us right now… Not only that, people are asking questions why we are here or why we look so different. They are also asking about Lil and her friends who were with us.
People are asking too many questions about us and honestly, I could tell some people fallowing me around.
…
I was half of my mind to go outside the city and have them fallow me, so just I could kill them.
But that would probably only make people be more annoying or something.
So, for now I will let them be.
But if one of those fuckers crosses the line, INSTANT DEATH.
Anyway, this place was richer than I thought!
No wonder the empire want to conquer the demonic kingdom!
I managed to buy some rare class books called [Demon Ritualist] that is a special class related to [Demon Summoner] and second rare class called [Curse Maker] that boost the curse and debuffs performance. I brough second [Curse Maker] for Oron, since he will definitely like it.
Anyway, I also found some interesting materials from some merchant demons were quite unique in one way or another. But they were indeed pricy.
Honestly, I got to say, the best kingdom right after the Umil kingdom for the players to go to is this place.
Not only for the good stuff you can find here, but apparently this place is filled with a LOT of high level monsters.
Since the demonic kingdom is allies with Umil kingdom and the Umil kingdom is allies with the starting area kingdom called Umuri kingdom, you pretty much have a perfect road for the players to use if they want to have a good start and have the second and third location after that.
Probably, there will be more players starting in the Umuri kingdom after some time passed.
Well, not exactly.
The demonic kingdom is in the mess right now and we need to somewhat stabilize it.
…
Huh… We… Haven't been acting like villains for some time now.
I mean, we did pretty much revealed that we were the real villains and culprits between Umil and Adernul kingdoms war, but that was a month ago.
Well… It's not like we can do evil every day. Since we are still small guild.
We really need to start soon recruiting more people, but we also need to make Lil and her friends stronger first.
Honestly, the main reason why we became so strong in the Adernul/Umil kingdom was because we were going on the rampage everywhere like maniacs.
But right now, we cannot do that since we need to do the opposite and keep this place in one piece or something.
Then, we will have to have these guys go out on the missions with us on all occasions, since it may lead to them getting some good titles AND we need to use most of the rewards points we get from the demon lord to buy class books and upgrade these guys.
I will also have to train them a bit and see what they are lacking with O'a and look for some class books on the auctions house that may be useful for them.
Honestly, I was planning on spending all of these points for these guys right now, but the [Doll Maker] and [Toy Maker] are too good of a classes for Blueberry to the point I couldn't ignore them.
So, yea… I will also have to look at the rest of the items on the list and see what other useful stuff there is.
But If I'm being honestly right now, I want to only work for the demon lord for not very long.
True.
She may give us some extremely good rewards.
But we need to start to focus around our guild now since we need get more members and try and look for a perfect locations for our base.
But… I think we will be stuck in this kingdom for the long time, since this place is in bigger mess than an of us through…. Fuck you demon lord. Fuck you.
