A Living Armour Owns A Tavern 47 A Night To Remember

"Rita, Daniel, Can you see anything?"

"Negative sir! No signs of monsters anywhere." Rita surveys the area with her hand on her scabbard.

"The soil here is very loose, so it must have recently s.h.i.+fted from the tremors earlier. Sir, I've confirmed that the source of the tremors traces back inside Yellowleaf Village."

"Good work both of you." Sherrif Molt commended his deputies.

"H...How?!...Uhm... Sir, you have to see this..." Rita pointed at YellowLeaf village.

Everyone expected that YellowLeaf should be in shambles. But the Village was looking livelier than before.

"Ms. Rita, Didn't the report stated that the Goblin horde has at least 2 Goblin Generals and 4 Goblin captains? I don't wish to say this, but Yellowleaf shouldn't be standing right now." Daniel reviewed the report that was sent to them about Yellowleaf once more making sure he read the report correctly.

"That's exactly how I understood the reports as well. I can't understand how a village with a handful of village militia survives a threat-A calamity." Rita has already a.s.sumed that a Goblin horde with such powerful figures, can only be lead by a more powerful one, specifically a Goblin Lord.

Calamity Threat A qualifies as a threat that can ravage a city. Even a party of Rank adventurers would sometimes consider declining the request because their chances of survival are not that great at all.

'"It's meaningless to keep guessing. Let us ask the resident themselves for answers."

As they approach Yellowleaf Village, Sheriff Molt spotted a group of militia scouting the village perimeters.

"Good Evening sir! My name is Sherrif Molt. We are the investigators from Phanzal City. We request to meet with your Village chief, Mr. Victor Treas."

"Good Evening Sherrif, I'm Victor Treas, it's a pleasure to meet you. I didn't expect your arrival to be premature, Please forgive us for being unprepared on such short notice. As you may have experienced, we were scouting for damages the tremors may have caused," Victor bowed his head to show his sincerity.

"It's alright. We have to come urgently because of the tremors as well. Is it alright to discuss further matters inside?"

"Ohh.. how rude of me, of course! of course! Please come in!"

As Victor bowed down, Sherrif Molt and the rest of his team have already deduced from his actions, that Victor and the Townspeople have no knowledge about the tremors at all. Sherrif Molt and his team decided to accompany Victor to scout the village together.

"Mr. Victor, it has come to my attention, that this Village has been under attack by a goblin horde just a few nights ago, Is this true?"

Sherrif Molt has decided not to beat around the bush. It seems that the investigation team has no plans to stay in Yellowleaf village since they are already aware that this village has no public establishments to accommodate guests.

"Why yes! We have definitely been attacked by a Goblin horde." Victor shuddered when he remembered the night they raided the town.

"Since the Village still stands, I a.s.sume that the Village's saviors are still in town?"

Victor remembered the words Gus has imparted him if they ever ask about the incident.

"Why Yes! I believe the Merchants of Bluefox Company is still within the village. If not for the two of them, our Village would have been reduced to rubbles. We expressed our deepest grat.i.tude and bestowed them the t.i.tle, Heroes of YellowLeaf!" Victor smiled upon reminiscing the heroic events. He remembered to keep the Magna Defender a secret, as instructed by Gusford and Nico.

"That explains why the Village is still standing, I am not aware that Tenrocks has such powerful figures in their employment." Rita deeply wished to meet the so-called "Heroes of Yellowleaf" and gauge their strength herself. Repelling a threat-A disaster is indeed a tremendous achievement for a Cla.s.s-A adventurer such as herself. Simply thinking about it made Rita licked her lips in antic.i.p.ation.

"So, do you have any idea where the Goblins have came from?" Sheriff Molt asked the question which King Edward only cared about. Since Gus didn't mention anything about the Goblins and the place of their origin, Victor decided to tell the truth.

"Yes Sir Molt! The Goblin Horde seem to have come from the novice dungeons." Victor pointed out the direction where the novice dungeon is located inside Yellowleaf.

"Lies! No Dungeon Creatures has ever left their dwelling! Please tell the truth, Mr. Victor!" Sherrif Molt drew his sword and pointed it towards Victor.

"Sir! I am not lying! I know, Come with us to the Novice Dungeon, there should still be Goblin tracks around the dungeon! Believe me Sir! I wouldn't lie about this!" Victor pleaded for his life. Even the Village Chief himself admits that the truth sounds rubbish.

Sherrif Molt looked at Rita. He wouldn't take her on this mission if she doesn't have the ability to discern lies. After all, interrogation is one of her notable skills.

"Sir! Unfortunately, he is telling the truth. I believe we should go to this Novice Dungeon and get to the bottom of this." Rita couldn't believe it either, but the old man is telling the truth.

"Daniel, do you know anything about this?" Rita decided to ask their companion, Daniel the historian.

"I'm sorry Rita, This is the first incident which dungeon monsters have crawled out of their den. I a.s.sure you there are no other doc.u.ments that can explain this," Daniel shook his head in confusion.

"Mmm... It seems I owe you an apology Mr. Victor," Sherrif Molt sheathed his sword back in the scabbard.

"It is alright Sir Molt, I myself couldn't understand it either. If I would have heard it from someone else, I would've also a.s.sumed that he is lying." Victor can only be thankful that they accepted his answer.

Victor and his company, lead Sherrif Molt and his team straight to the novice dungeon right away.

The moment they arrived at the Dungeon Entrance, Victor and Daniel were the first people to immediately react to the changes that happened.

"Daniel?" Rita noticed him running straight towards an establishment they have never seen before.

"No..no..no... There is supposed to be Dungeon here. My data can't be wrong!"

After observing the establishment, Daniel suddenly froze. He saw something that made him fall on his bottom.

"Deputy Daniel! Calm Down. What is it?! Tell us!"

Sherrif Molt and Rita walked towards their shocked companion staring blankly on the ground. Sherrif Molt and deputy Rita immediately drew their swords towards the mysterious figure that was standing over 2 bodies that were lying on the ground.

"May G.o.ds Have mercy on those poor souls!" Victor prayed for the two unfortunate victims.

"You! Identify yourself!" Sherrif Molt demanded to know the culprit's ident.i.ty. Judging by the scene they saw, they concluded that they had just witnessed a murderer who was about to perform a coup de grace on the 2 unfortunate souls that were laying down on the ground.

The Mysterious Figure turned around slowly and gave a maniacal laugh that sent s.h.i.+vers down their spines.
