Aldrich barged in through the dust and rubble like a hunter in pursuit of his prey. He surveyed his surroundings and spotted the she-orc, flopped over with her body in shambles. But alive. Which honestly shocked Aldrich, he did not think that it was possible to survive that attack when it was taken head-on and at such close proximity. This room had some kind of bar and the stench of alcohol and smoke was clear as day. Immediately most people ran away in panic. He frowned and looked around at the rest of…-

Aldrich took the two heath potions he left behind in his cell and made Cole drink one of them. Since the damage was so sever it should take a little bit of time. But not too long, his own broken legs were healed in a two minutes. His high vitality helped but Cole did not enjoy this benefit. "H-hey, you… you're Cole's friend right? I'm his friend too, help me out…" Aldrich turned to the right of Cole's cage, there was a group of knocked out people inside. Only he and Cole enjoyed having a whole cell…

The commotion of breaking the chain alerted Kevin at once, perhaps were he an ordinary man he might have missed that slight noise. But not him he knew something wasn't right. He walked over and inspected the cages and those inside but pass over most of them quickly. Aldrich was aware of him slowing down only once before he stood before his own cage.

Aldrich stared at the letter for a while and blinked, he read it again just to make sure. It was written in a hurry, the letters were jumbled and the paper was wrinkled. Honestly his first thought was that it was a prank. Yesterday Cole bragged that he advanced successfully and the next day his friends were kidnapped and he wants help? Aldrich was not sure whether Cole would pull this kind of prank or not. He could very well go there only to see that things were fine and Cole just wanted to hang out.…

"Fine, you know what? We can talk about it. I'm sick of this wine get me a Taprisian mix." Lord Merrick sighed and ordered. "Norge." Ayemon called and Norge walked out at once to get the drink. "How much do we need for this? It's not going to be cheap." Merrick added. "We will need ten million, so we will ask for thirty." Ayemon replied nonchalantly. "Thirty? It's not enough to buy the votes we need for something like this," Merrick shook his head, "lord Eddwinn told me that you will be like…

The middle aged man was followed by an entourage most of whom were women in revealing clothing. However there was a pair of women who gave off powerful auras despite being suppressed. Aldrich could faintly tell that he was no match against even one of them not to mention the two together. The servants of the mansion on both sides bowed their heads, "we welcome, great lord Merrick Ford to the house of Seerstorm." Aldrich did not expect that the guest of honor would be the first to arrive. Shouldn't he…

Cursed? She's cursed? What? When did that happen? And what's the deep-root? What does that mean? Aldrich tried to focus his eyes on the curse to get an explanation but he only got question marks meaning that the current level of his skill was not high enough. "What's wrong?" Yasbel asked and cut off his train of thought. "Oh? Ah, nothing, nothing I was lost in thought for a moment." He could only change the subject. As they ate Aldrich retold the story and he was beginning to grow a little tired of…

The letter that Aldrich sent was to Yasbel of course. He did not want to go in there himself out of caution, he did not want to be remembered by the employees. Perhaps he was too cautious but nonetheless he wanted to erase his presence. If he kept visiting regularly and going directly to Yasbel's office he was bound to draw attention to himself. It is also a good thing that he bought the messenger. That way they can arrange meetings without worrying about unnecessary things. "So, how did it go? You…
