They rode through the back roads and woods until they finally reach the Heart kingdom. They stopped at the first village they arrived to and decided to get some drinks and relax at a bar. Lucky, Ren was given actual medicine back in the Clover capital and healed from his wounds during the trip back, and the others informed him on what he missed.
"Well I'll tell you one thing. That was a lot of work to deliver a message." Ren took a shot while everyone laughed. "Now we just have to update the king of our journey."
Yoan took a sip from his drink.

"About the king, Ace said he had something to do with the Clover Kingdom's current situation. You guys don't think it's true do you?"

"Well our king probably isn't the nicest guy around but I don't think he would be involved in a deamon training program."
Julie brushed off the notion that the king was involved, Dakota agreeing with her.

"Yeah, the king hates deamons, that's why he's got such a rigorous training program to make some of the strongest soliders. You know how people like to start conspiracies."

"I don't know though," Ren interfered, "the king is probably capable of doing a lot of unspeakable, evil things. It's just if he's caught or not." They chatted on the subject  for a while when a man accompanied by two others entered the bar.

"Attention all. There will be crusade to exterminate a nest of roo-spider deamon beast nearby. If any one here would like to join, please come to the information meeting in the village  square in 15 minutes." The man promptly left after giving his message. Yoan looked at the others.

"What do you guys think? It's been forever since I've heard of a crusade being formed to hunt deamons. I wonder who set this all up."

Dakota chimed in, "I don't know. Maybe we should just head to the capital. Haven't we had our fair share of deamon fights for the moment?"
Julie playfully shoved Dakota.

"Come on, don't be a baby. Let's at least go to the meeting and see what's the plan, then we can decide from there." Everyone but Dakota agreed as they finished their drinks then headed into the village  square. The square was busy was a number of adventurers who planned on joining the crusade. After a moment the man from the bar stood on a podium to address everyone present.

"Hello all. My name is Julius and I am the organizer of this crusade. It pleases me to see so many brave adventurers ready to defend the area from the deamons. I have gathered some information that a nest of roo-spiders are residing in a nearby cave to the north. They have been attacking nearby villages and now it's time we put a stop to it. The plan is to strike them head on as they won't be expecting us to enter their home. Now while I have information on the subject, the inside of the cave is  vast and has not been explored all the way, which is where these come in." Julius held up multiple different colored whistles and rope. I'll explain in more details once we all head out. Now I know you all may have heard the rumors that killing a strong deamon leader will grant you powers from the specialist but I don't want anyone to do anything risky trying to prove that rumor to be true. After the crusade you all will be rewarded handsomely so please, try your best to stay safe. We leave tomorrow morning. If you have any questions please come to me or one of my associates. I hope to see you all then. That is all." Julius stepped down and made his way through the crowd while the people talked amongst themselves. Dakota had a worried look on his face as he tried to leave the crowd.

"Ok we heard the details now let's go to the capt-" He was cut off as Julie pulled him back by his shirt collar, a look of excitement on her and the others face.

"What do you mean. How can we as DFF members NOT participate in such a noble crusade." Julie grinned, Dakota knew that it was for the chance to simply fight more strong deamon.
