Overlord X Star Wars fanfiction: The Overlord's Enforcers(Discontinued)

Chapter V: Journey

The Swords of Darkness plus the three of them walk down the staircase, as they were preparing to begin a quest. But then, they were surprised by a voice. They recognize it as the receptionist, calling out to the three.

"Mr. Momon, Mr. Vader. You have been requested for a specific job." Said the receptionist.

The three were surprised by this, as Momon responds to the receptionist.

"Who in the world requested it?" Asked Momon.

"Nphirea Balear." Said the receptionist.

Then, appear before them a boy. He wears casual clothing, his hair is blond a covers his eyes. But his coincidental appearances shook Nabe, as she instinctively hops in front of the two with her sword ready. But to her surprise, her head got hit by both Vader and Momon, as she let out a somewhat cute squeal of pain.

"Don't move without thinking!" Whispered Vader to her.

"I am very sorry." Said Nabe as she holds her head.

"I know you are trying to protect us, but hold yourself back a little more." Whispered Momon.

The three turned back, as the man named Nphirea Balear began to spoke.

"Nice to meet you. I am the one who requested for you." Said the man named Nphirea. But then, Momon spoke something peculiar than others.

"I am very sorry. We have already promised to do a different job. We are honored that you requested us, but..." Before he could continue, he was cut off by Peter.

"Mr. Momon! It's a personal request for all of you!" Said Peter.

"That may be true, Mr. Peter. But finishing the job we accepted first is a common courtesy. Even though the three of us are now mere mercenaries, we intend to keep our word." Vader replied.

All who listens was astonished until Peter starts talking again.

"But, a personal request is..." Said Peter.

"How about this then. We will make our decision after listening to Mr. Balear's request." Said Momon.

Peter and his party went silent, as they agree to Momon's suggestion.

"Very well. Mr. Nphirea, follow us to the top floor. We will discuss further the request you were talking about." Said Momon.

The group plus Nphirea walked up the stairs again, as Nphirea began to talk.

"I am Nphirea Balear. I work as a pharmacist in this city. This time, I plan to go to the forest near Carne Village to gather herbs." He explained.

The boy piqued both Momon's and Vader's interest, as the boy continues to explain.

"I would like you to guard me and help me collect herbs during the trip." Said Nphirea.

His request is somewhat plausible, especially hiring copper ranked adventurers like them. But, Vader sensed something else. He senses that Nphirea wants a certain something, something that any pharmacist wants. Which makes Vader grinned under his mask, unknown to all.

"Guard you.." Said Momon.

"The reward will be the usual amount of..." Before Nphirea could continue, he is cut off by Momon.

"Mr. Peter. Do you have any interest in being hired by me?" Asked Momon.

"What do you mean?" Asked Peter.

"For a bodyguarding request, a ranger like Mr. Lukrut is necessary. And if we are in a forest, wouldn't having a druid like Mr. Dyne be a useful addition?" Said Momon.
