《Eliminator》Chapter 15: Guard Duty
Advertisement
After waking up and doing his morning routine, Ray logged back on into Square One.
Scout immediately walked towards the leather working shop, more than a day had passed and his new armor should be ready. He entered the shop and approached the shop keeper.
"Ah young man, your armor is ready."
"I see, thank you"
The shop keeper handed over Scouts new armor.

"WOW! These things are great!" Scout couldn't help it but be amazed
"Heh, Of course, I'm a master blacksmith of course"
"Wait your a blacksmith?" Scout asked
"Yeah, Im just doing armorsmithing for fun, I can make weapons if need it be, Of course worry not, my leather working skills are top notch too."
"Yeah, judging by these armor that you made, I can tell. By the way, can I ask for your name? So that ill know who to look for if i need new armors." Scout said.
"Yeah of course, my name is Cain." As Cain was saying these words he reached out his hand offering a shake.
"My name is Scout" Scout reached out his hand and accepted his handshake.

"Well, if you need weapons, I can make them for you." Cain said
"I don't need new weapons" Scout asked with a smile on his face.
"Ohohoho why is that?"
Scout showed his weapons to Cain
"GOD DAMN! Those weapons are amazing!"
"I know, don't worry though, I will be coming to you for armors . . . . Oh by the way, please don't tell anyone about my weapons"
"Heh, your secret is safe with me."
"So why are you out here, when you could be at the capital making weapons for adventurers?" Scout asked
"Too many blacksmiths at the capital, not enough work for everyone, so I decided to move to a city like this"
"So you're looking for work?" Scout asked
"Yeah, something like that" Cain replied
"I might just have the thing for you, give me a minute"
Cain was confused.
Scout then opened the guild channel and called a guild officer, Hiro.
"Hello how may I help you? Hiro asked
"Sir, this is Scout 1 wing C class, I found a NPC blacksmith that needs work."
"I see, whats special about him? We have some blacksmiths already at HQ."
"He came from the capital, also he is a master blacksmith and apparently he can create armors too, he made me a decent set."
"That is interesting! Can you bring him to HQ right away?" Hiro asked once more
"I cannot at the moment, I have some business that I need to take care of."
"I see, I will send some people then, where are you?"
"That is a great idea sir, Im at Hoelbrak City"
"Good its not that far away, Ill send some C class to pick him up accompanied by a B class."
"Okay sir, thank you, ill inform the blacksmith of the situation."
Scout ended the call and faced towards the blacksmith.

"Sorry about that, you said you were looking for work right?" Scout asked
"Yeah something like that."
"Well, I'm in guild called free wing mercenaries, were slowly growing and we would like for you to join us."
"That would be great, I should be able to make many wares there."
"Yes you will, A group of my guild mates will be coming over later in the day to escort you back to HQ."
"How will I know who you guild mates are?" Cain asked
Scout lifted up his sleeve and showed Cain his guild mark
"They will have a similar mark as me, and once you get to HQ, you will have one as well"
"Okay, thank you very much."
"No, thank you, well I have to go now, ill see you in HQ soon." Scout said and left.
Scout walked over to the quest board, even though he already reached the requirements for the guild, he still wanted a little bit more in order to help out the guild better.
Since Hoelbrak is a city, there are more quests available, and the crime rate is higher too. Since the crime rate is high, there are a lot of bounties and city protecting quests.
Scout had 4 days left before the guild meeting, so he had 2 more days to spend in Hoelbrak before he leaves to go back to HQ.
After looking and looking, Scout found the perfect quest.
Protect Hoelbrak City from criminals
Rewards: 1g per night and 10 silver per criminal stopped
This was a perfect opportunity for Scout to raise his skills and level up. Criminals were either NPC's or Players. Scout then started patrolling the city from the rooftops where he would have a good view of things. He ran near alley ways where more crime's are bound to happen, as he was patrolling he had found his first victim. It was a player trying to rob another player. There was a clear level difference between the two.
"HAND OVER YOUR MONEY!"
"Please I don't have much"
"I DONT CARE, GIVE THEM TO ME OR YOU WILL DIE HERE."
"Okay okay, please don't kill me"
"hehehehe thats a good dog, NOW DIE!"
The robber was about to swing his sword, but before he could swing his sword, Scout had already planted a dagger behind the guy's back. The robber fell over leaving only a dead body behind. Scout bent over and picked up the bag containing the money.
"Please don't kill me, you can keep the money" the guy begged for mercy.
Scout just threw the money towards the guy without saying a word and just shadow stepped back up to the roofs.
"Quest Information"
Number of nights protected:0
Number of Criminals Stopped: 1
Scout proceeded to patrol more, sticking close to the alleys. After a few more minutes of patrolling, Scout found another set of victims, 2 robbers trying to break in a store through the back door.
Scout was squatting up on the roof and asked the two robbers.
"So what you guys doing?"
"What?! Who?! Where are you?!" one of the guys asked
"Im up here idiots" Scout retorted.
"What the hell are you doing here?!"
"I could ask you the same thing" Scout wittingly replied
"Come down here and ill tell you" The guys said with a pretty evil grin
"Oh yeah, you want me to come down there so that you could kill me? Oh I will come down alright, but you better be prepared."
"We aint scared of you, theres 2 of us!"
"Oh we will see about that" Scout said
Scout immediately disappeared from their sight. They were shocked, but before they could even react, Scout had already planted his daggers behind their backs.
"Heh, this isn't so bad" Scout said while moving on to find more victims

The Last Marshal
Weird West Fantasy Noir Once the Republic Marshals brought order to the chaotic lands along the Frontier, facing dangers both human and supernatural with ancient wisdom and a six-gun —but that was a long time ago. Destroyed by conspiracy and betrayal, all that remains of that secretive order is one nameless man on a trek though the West seeking revenge on the woman he blames for the Marshals' fall and his disgrace. When a visitor from our world joins him on his journey, they together must confront the horrors of a strange land, the mysteries of the past and the real meaning of their quest for justice. The world of Tellus is what 19th Century Earth would have looked like if the stories of Poe, Ambrose Bierce, Lovecraft and William Hope Hodgeson were real. History in this world moves slower. The old faiths persist and civilization never conquered the dark corners of the map, at least not without being inextricably changed. Technology and culture takes a little longer to evolve in this land, as people here tend to spend more time pursuing their elaborate revenge plots or trying to avoid being the next sacrifice to the Outer Gods rather than advancing science or statecraft. Imagine Cormac McCarthy by way of Edgar Rice Burroughs, though a little less testosterone-drenched than that description would imply. Three caveats: First, there are deep mysteries here, including how such a world came to be and who controls it. Second, this world is not wholly unconnected from our own. There is a historical point of divergence, but in the distant past. To paraphrase Twain: history in this world is not a repeat of our own, but it does often rhyme. And finally, this is not a setting that lends itself to happy endings.
