Chapter 480: Badleg Barry
Since the other three guests had paid their boarding fee, it was now Gu Qing Shan’s turn.
A scroll jumped out from Gu Qing Shan’s body and unwinded, turning into a heavy bag of money in mid air.
This was the boarding fee prepared by Xiao Die.
The bag of money flew around a bit before heading for the old man.
The old man lightly touched the bag.
It flew back.
Receiving the bag of money, Gu Qing Shan asked in confusion: “Why?”
The old man shook his head: “You’re a friend of our Spire Keeper Association so you’re exempt from this time’s boarding fees”
The other three guests looked at Gu Qing Shan in shock.
“I can’t believe, the coin-pinching Spire Keepers actually gave something for free?” the big rooster muttered in a low voice.
The automatic machine gun silently nodded.
——just where did this boy come from? He’s a friend of the Spire Keeper Association?
“Thank you” Gu Qing Shan spoke.
“There is no need to, serving you is our willing pleasure” the old man smiled.
Gu Qing Shan then put the heavy bag of money away.
Let’s consider this money unexpected payment.
After he finished taking care of the boarding fees, the old man told the guests: “Please follow me to your personal accommodations”
“Once we’ve reached your destinations, I will inform you”
He took out a small book, checking it as he brought the 4 people to the living quarters of the ship.
After a while of walking, the old man pressed his hand onto the door of a certain room.
It seems he was activating something with a spell.
The old man whispered to the book in his hand: “All guests heading to Purgatory, please rest in this room”
The black cloaked Demi came forward.
“How long can I stay there?” he hesitantly asked.
The old man answered: “That depends on your own strength, but I personally recommend that you had better not go at all”
The black cloaked Demi said nothing, opened the door and went inside.
Bam!
He slammed the door shut.
“What a rude Divinity” the big rooster complained.
“Purgatory… so this guy is probably after ‘that’, does the Spire not care about this?” the automatic machine gun asked.
“If we have to care about every insect of that level, we’d worry ourselves to death” the old man casually answered

The big rooster laughed.
The old man continued to bring the other three guests forward.
They came to another door.
“All guests heading to White Elephant Mountains, please rest in this room”
The old man whispered to his book.
His hand pressed another door.
“White Elephant Mountains! That’s quite the wonderful resort isn’t it! You sure know how to enjoy yourself, you lucky dog!” the big rooster exaggeratedly exclaimed.
The automatic machine gun stepped out and spoke: “Ah, I’ve been so tired recently that my shoulders are a bit stiff, I needed a little R&R”
“I’m guessing there’s quite a few pretty ladies there, isn’t that right?” the big rooster said.
“If only I were 200 million years younger I would be interested in the ladies, but now I just want to relax and loosen up” the automatic machine gun answered.
“How many days?”
“They qualified me for a 6-day vacation” the automatic machine gun replied.
“6 days! That’s quite the long vacation—— well you’ve got my contact information, see you later” the big rooster enthusiastically said.
“See you”
The automatic machine gun hopped into the room.
The door slowly closed.
The old man brought the other two guests forward again.
While walking, the big rooster suddenly spoke to Gu Qing Shan: “Boy, let me tell you something, that gun is a total pervert who pretends to be decent”
“Ah? Why do you say that?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“White Elephant Mountains, hahaha” the big rooster loudly sneered.
The old man also turned around.
He gave the big rooster an understanding look.
“Yep, White Elephant Mountains” the old man muttered.
Seeing the ambiguous expressions of the old man and the chicken, Gu Qing Shan kind of understood what they meant.
The three of them stopped in front of another door.
“The next guest——- your destination is Aboul, please take a short rest, I will inform you when we get there” the old man said.
He pressed his hand on the door.
It opened.
“Alright, I’ll trouble you”
The big rooster looked up and gleefully went inside”
Suddenly remembered something, he turned to ask Gu Qing Shan: “Boy, what do you think about Aboul?”
Seeing his prideful expression, Gu Qing Shan praised: “I think that you are quite different from the two previous guests, your taste is more refined and much more enjoyable”

As he listened, the big rooster slowly smiled brighter and brighter.
“That’s right, Aboul, I’ll be staying there for half a month——- I got approved for quite the extended stay there”
“Congratulations, such a place is only suitable for you” Gu Qing Shan followed up.
“You’re exactly right” the big rooster was very pleased: “This is a vacation resort that only roosters of truly good taste can enjoy”
“White Elephant Mountains, cheh cheh cheh”
Swinging his wing, the big rooster threw Gu Qing Shan a small note.
“I like smart and noble young men like yourself who know how to sweet talk, this is the contact information of a close female friend of mine, consider it my personal gift to you. I bid you luck in becoming her good friend as well”
“Alright, I’m going to rest now, good luck on your trip”
“And the same to you”
The big rooster tilted his head and gracefully bowed to say goodbye.
It lightly closed the door.
The old man brought Gu Qing Shan to the final door.
“Let me see, which Super Dimensional world did you want to go to…”
He made a strange expression as he turned the page on the small book.
“Ah, it’s that stupid club…”
The old man looked at the book, then at Gu Qing Shan.
“You’ll stay there for 1 hour” he said.
Gu Qing Shan raised his brows slightly.
I have so little time in the Super Dimensional world?
But come to think of it, Xiao Die only needed me to deliver something and say a few words.
1 hour should be more than enough for that.
While he was thinking that, something changed on the War God UI.
A flash of light swept through the War God UI, turning into large red letters in the middle of the UI.
[Breaking the chains of fate, altering the determined history, user Gu Qing Shan had triggered a Destiny Quest]
[Quest description: Any living being would find it hard to receive a chance to come into contact with a Super Dimensional world in their lifetime—– but right now, the best chance in your life had appeared]
[Quest objective: Think of a way to stay at the Justice Iron Fist Club]
[If you succeed, you will know a secret]
[If you fail, you will receive a new title: He who botched Fate]
As Gu Qing Shan read through the content of the Quest and was about to silently question a few things…
Two more lines of text appeared on the War God UI.
[Note: Do not try to ask about the content of the secret beforehand]
[Note: Do not try to ask about the effects of the new title, I can only tell you that you definitely do not want to receive this title]
Gu Qing Shan could only give up.
He looked at the old man.
The old man stood still.
Apparently he was reminiscing about something as his eyes appeared quite joyful.
“You seemed to remember something interesting?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“Ah, my apologies, I was just recalling an old story about Badleg Barry” the old man apologized and said.
The quickly pressed his hand on the door.
It opened.
But Gu Qing Shan didn’t go in right away.
Xiao Die wanted Gu Qing Shan to give something to Badleg Barry to repay his favor to her years ago.
Gu Qing Shan now also had a Destiny Quest to remain there.
“I’m sorry if it’s rude, but can you share that interesting story with me?”
Gu Qing Shan hesitantly spoke.
Nothing was better if he could use this chance to find out a bit more about the man called Badleg Barry.
“It’s no trouble at all” the old man said.
He started to reminiscent and spoke: “Badleg Barry——- at a certain time when he was saving a certain world, found out that he had forgotten to bring his weapon”
“You can forget such a thing?” Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
“He publicly said that the forgot” the old man said secretively, “but the truth of the matter might be quite different—— in fact, such a thing couldn’t possibly be hidden from our Spire Keeper Association”
“Can you tell me a bit about the truth?”
The old man lowered his voice: “Actually, before the battle, Barry was attending a certain concert—— in which he was too immersed in the mood and impulsively threw his weapon on stage”
“Later, when Barry went to save that world, right before the war started and when he was facing an army of demons, he had only just realized that his weapon wasn’t there”
The old man shook his head: “A great Combatant he may be, Barry was still an idiot through and through”

Mortis Operandi 1- New Hire
Thank you for reading, I have to start with that. The feedback and encouragement from RoyalRoad users helped me finish my book. I left the unedited version up as I worked on editing and making it a little more polished. However the time has come for me to put it on Amazon and hopefully let other people read the story. If you have Kindle unlimited you should be able to read the story there. If you just want to order an ebook version you can do that as well. I should have a paperback version coming up. https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07T46B4NM Again thank you for reading and helping me on this journey.

The Goblin Eft No-toes has a solution that entwines ex-adventurer Elric into the business of death. *Note the above statements are forward looking statements.
