Chapter 78: I Want to Kill Shin
I opened the message that was sent by that NPC inside the building. Inside it, I found a lot of data regarding the legendary quest, its history, and how many times players succeeded in finishing it.
As Shin and Goda and the others told me inside, there was a bog zero success rate in front of my eyes. I felt weird, but when I checked the conditions related to that quest, I knew why it had this full mark failure rate.
The legendary adventure group quest started a long, really long time ago as a challenge from the game to the players. The roots of this weren't mentioned in that message, or report, but I could guess it started like a way to balance things up.
As mentioned in the beginning of this message, the game world was controlled by either nobility, or players related to it, and so it ended in a way the game didn't intend it to be.
I linked between this and the game master token that I had, it seemed to me this game was trying desperately to change the situation, but yet it failed.
The name changed from challenge into the current name, quest, at some point, and I guess it must be related to those nobles.
Challenge was a bold irritating word for them, so they must have faced all those who took this challenge with extreme violence, the same violence that guild master token holders were dealt with.
This small trick had played a good role in pushing the challenge, or quest, off the grid, and helped in decreasing the heat over this quest, which was something guild master token holders didn't enjoy yet.contemporary romance
The conditions weren't much, but they were so difficult, which included gathering 10k players in the first three months, and then I will have to accept a challenge from any existent adventure group as one challenge monthly, and I had to win them all.
Single loss in the first year of the quest would eliminate me and my group immediately, and that was harsh. The only fair rule here was that any challenge was between 10k players from each group, no more, no less.
The other condition was to be one of the first three places in any dungeon, that included the fastest team in dungeon completion, the first to complete the dungeon in all difficulties, and the highest score groups in each dungeon.
That was risky, especially that fastest team condition, as the quest lasted for one year, and we must secure our places in the top three all the time in all dungeons.
Losing just one place even for a second would strip us off this chance. I sighed, as this was nearly impossible. To safeguard against any surprises, we need to be always the fastest team in any given dungeon from level 10 and until one year has passed.
'This quest is worthy to be called legendary.'
The third condition was to have an adventure group headquarter and an estate that belonged to the group. The estates listed there included villages, towns, and cities.
That also must be fulfilled in one year, and we must defend these estates for one year as if one year passed without any under our control, then it was our loss.
The issue wasn't about the conditions themselves, but about the ability for any other group to intervene and cause troubles to us.
If I wanted to establish an adventure group and make a name for myself, then I had to use this chance, as this was the only way to gather players safely, or safer than doing so under the name of establishing a guild.
At the end of that message, I found a choice to make, either to agree to participate or not. I didn't hesitate to agree, and then I entered the building again, this time I knew my life was safe and that threat my enemies prepared was successfully nullified by luck.
"Why the big smile over your face little princess?" Shin asked as he was the first to notice me coming towards them. his words attracted everyone's attention, which seemed to be distracted by unpleasant thoughts.
These dejected eyes and gloomy faces told me everything they were thinking about, and that made me feel some satisfaction, they should stand with me, not against me like this.
"I have successfully dealt with the assassin sent from that bitchy."
"Have you killed him? this fast?" Mony stood up in a hurry as she used one of her healing skills on me, but I gestured to her as I said:
"It's nothing, we don't have a fight actually, or else I would be dead right now."
I walked and sat on one of the seats beside them, they all looked at me in strange funny way, which made me add:
"What? Do you think I made this up?"
"absolutely," Shin replied.
"That's for sure," Goda said.
I glared to the two as I faked anger, which was something I really had towards them not long time ago, then I said:
"Stop it you two, I'm not joking here."
"Yes, not joking and your jaws are about to fall," Shin replied trying to tease me again, but this time it was my turn to tease him back, as I said:
"That's because I have a surprise for you, I have agreed to participate in the quest, the legendary adventure group quest, so what do you all think?"
I watched all of their faces, but strangely and outside my expectations, none of them showed any panicked expression or showed dissatisfaction, instead, they were all acceptable to what I just said, acceptable to an unbelievable degree that I couldn't even imagine.
"I told you, she would do it," Shin said.
"Oh, I lost this bet," Goda lamented his bad luck.
"I knew you would choose to do it," Mony said with great, weird excitement.
"I want my money, c'mon Goda and Grendy give me my share," Heda said.
"Goda and Grendy betted against me? What's going on here?" I shouted to silence all of this noise and I felt more anger right now towards them. Shin said as he sensed my anger:
"I told them it's a bad idea, but they didn't believe me."
"What? It was you who convinced us to take role in this play and see what will she choose, right boys?" Mony nearly jumped from her seat towards Shin, except for me holding her body, she might have hit him in the face.
Shin laughed as he played an innocent role he couldn't fit at, while everyone pointed to him as God said:
"He said you will like it, and so we participated, we thought it would be fun."
"Fun?!" I glared at Shin with fiery eyes and boiling anger as I muttered, "If you have dignity, move outside now and let's settle this."
"Oh sweet princess, it was just a joke, don't you know how to joke?"
"Yes, I do, I can now drag your irritating face and take you outside and deliver you to the resurrection point, what do you say boys, and Mony? Do you want to bet on my success in doing that?" I said with a sneer as I took out my spear and pointed it towards Shin's face, I was pretty serious about my threat.
