Spending my retirement in a game

chapter 104

Eisen left the room and made his way back out of the Inn without saying a single word, not even to Caria or Melissa who were both noticing that Eisen wasn't himself and tried to console him in different ways.

And when the woman at the counter was trying to talk to him, he simply ignored her and left through the door without a second thought.

Only when Eisen was out of range in a completely different area of Ornier, did he stop for a second to take a deep breath, sitting down on a bench by the side of the road. "Well then, this was really messed up, wasn't it? Thanks for helping me back there, you two." Eisen said with a smile while looking at his two tamed monsters, rubbing both of their heads. "Now then, let's take a look at this."

[New Quest - Stolen Shards]

[Description] A group of adventurers destroyed the amulet in which the Mist Spirit Kirisho was sealed,

taking the majority of the shards with them. This left Kirisho in a state that only barely allows her to

consciously exist. You want to help, and thus the Ancient Gold Dragon Aylrentyrth asked you to find

the adventurers, and as such hopefully the shards of the amulet, with the help of one of the

adventurers' identification tag. Find the stolen shards and combine them together again.

After you found the first of the Adventurer party, you got the shard from him and got him to tell you where the other are, while making sure that he would be forever terrified of you. One of them died and the shard was taken by a criminal loan business, while the other went to live in a magic town.

"I see, so that quest was updated. And this really is the shard of the amulet I'm looking for." Eisen chuckled lowly to himself as he played around with the shard between his fingers, placing it back in his pocket before standing up from the bench and deciding to ask around for more information.

Since right now he had the chance to spend the day figuring out more about those loan sharks without involving anyone else, Eisen chose to use this time wisely. And there was usually one spot where such criminal organizations were most frequent.

Entertainment districts, such as redlight or gambling districts. It would be especially easy to find loan sharks in the latter of those two, preying on those that just lost their money in a gamble.

So the easiest way for him to find any hints about them was to go there and ask around. It took a while until Eisen found the right area in town, but in the end, he stood in front of the largest casino in town. It was only just starting to get busy in the afternoon, and Eisen would probably have the best chances to find anything out later in the day, but it would be a good start.

He decided to stand and wait at the wall opposite to the casino to simply wait for anything suspicious, before opening his backpack in a dark corner and releasing the five bee soldiers inside of it, commanding them to position themselves around the casino and relay to Melissa if they find anything suspicious or any type of hostility in the immediate surrounding.

But just a few minutes after they flew off, a new notification popped up in front of Eisen.
