Dreamland MMORPG Book 2: A Hard-working Thief of Justice Rising.

Chapter 32:Bets And Personal Quests

Ace went to try to find Yatagarasu but he could not find him, but he found someone he would never expect. Alvyn was calmly reading reports in a inn while having a tea and saw Ace and recognized him.
-Alvyn: What a wonderful day! To see you here, young man!
-Ace: Alvyn, stop it. What happened to Yata?
-Alvyn: Oh. He is busy with an investigation. Lea also. And Blaft.
-Ace: 3 GMs!?
-Alvyn: This is important.
-Ace: By the way, call me Ace. I heard one important thing. There has been mined an igniting gem. The event of the blazing ones will start already?
-Alvyn: It will take a pair of weeks to start. We will wait until the expansion has settled in well.
-Ace: Then it shouldn't be there. Or it should?
-Alvyn: It can be. But should have a drop rate of the 0.0001 percent.
-Ace: Please, investigate it. Also, warn the others. A man named Sieg may try to blow your little party.
-Alvyn: What small Oboro needed. A bomb threat. You know he will go paranoid. You know it.
-Ace: He is already paranoid. No cuddle time with Lea? Must be killing him.
-Alvyn: Yes, indeed.
-Ace: By the way: How are the bets going?
-Alvyn: Our 200 dollars are safe. Deadlast and Diane are playing the cat and mice. Diane teases him, Deadlast gets red-faced and starts returning the flirts.
-Ace: I see. And the other results?
-Alvyn: You think that there will be good results on a bet of a love between boys?
-Ace: No. But Artorias and Minnie…
-Alvyn: Oh. Yes, those two are together but because he asked her out. So our money is safe and we should obtain 1000 dollars. Half and half?
-Ace: And she crushed him? Also I only need 250. I know you need those 750 for the dojo you plan in opening.
-Alvyn: Nope. She was nice and seems that Artorias needs stamina. I should prepare tea for him.
-Ace: Knowing of how active she is, of course she would cause that. No one stops Minnie. She stops you, stomps you and then she whips you until you get up. Seems like…
-Alvyn: A Russian cliché. Yes. I feel it even myself.
Ace got up and left happy. He managed to warn Alvyn, who with his teleports could dodge bullets and bombs easily, and that meant that the group was safe.

Meanwhile, Geralt had received a message from Sieg and saw that it was a personal quest. Personal quests are quests that only one person can accept and mostly they are player made quests like protecting cargo or people. Few people does that kind of quest since they are expensive for the one who requests it, but usually when working with Big guild you have to make personal quests because if not they will feel that maybe a competitor appears to do the quest that they were tasked to and will never accept it.
Geralt on that term, he was inexperienced and had a lot of doubts about the quest so he went to ask Shade.
-Geralt: Shade.
-Shade: Yes, Wolfie?
-Geralt: (sighs) I received a personal quest. From a guy called Sieg. What I should do?
-Shade: Usually a personal quest for a guild master means that only that guild may participate. Depending on the contents of the quest, you should accept it. It can be a good idea to have more reputation.
-Geralt: Yes but what if it is more than we can chew?
-Shade: In the contents of the quest should be explained. If not, it is his mistake to not warn us. Personal quests are extremely important, so if he fails at putting all the details in the quest, he will be known as a stupid person and he will be tricked easily.
-Geralt: Still, he said that he wants us to protect an item for an expo in Greltiel.
-Shade: Well, we should accept. That way we can also hire for our guild some PSY players.
-Geralt: Truly?
-Shade: Yes. We can go to the academy, put a request of PSY players and get PSY players who are interested in our guild.
-Geralt: Yeah but we will have to pay…
-Shade: Of course. But they are top-notch PSY. And takes some coin to make the request, pass it to the PSY players who have finished their normal training… And with this we pay for the materials and items they use to train.
-Geralt: Put like that, it seems like it is a fair trade.
-Shade: It is. We should accept. It's a protection quest. Nothing too odd. Maybe some mercs after the item but nothing too great. After all it is just a reactor by what the client says.
-Geralt: Then we will accept it. Thanks, darling!
Shade starts blushing and covers her face with her hands. Geralt smiles and leaves to contact Sieg and accept the quest.

Hi people!

I hope you are having a great time and I hope that you are liking this story. The cover is going slow because I try, I fail and keep going until I need to write more chapters.

Which reminds me that I need to prepare more batch for this story. (Because stupid old me has forgotten to keep account on it and I almost ran out of it. More like I got focused on the cover and the other batches. 5 batches of 8 chapters being prepared is not easy task)

Every vote helps, so vote if you liked this chapter!
