Because of the end of the winter season, 6 continuations of mercenaries and adventurers began to gather towards the small town of Komodo. This makes Kate, the owner of the Nightsong Tavern, much busier than usual. But it was clear that this busyness did not bore him, but rather enjoyed it. After pouring a glass of Suser to a guest at the bar who asked for wine, he picked up a clean rag and picked up the glass as usual, which was already his habit.

"A glass of stout!" a voice came from the bar seat with a bit of shrill and funny.

Kate turned her head and saw a guy with green pointed ears sitting on a chair at the bar, only the little green head was leaking out of the bar due to her height.

"Hey, Ivo, you're back! I haven't seen you in a long time, and I've heard that you've been to Tarela, and you've been on this trip for a long time. Is 一qiē still smooth?" Kate said with a smile as she poured a dark beer for the elf sitting at the bar.

"Oh! indeed, for a long time. It's taken me a lot of time, but as long as there's a glittering gold coin, it's okay, isn't it?" said Ivo as he took a big sip from his glass.

"Haha...... Yes, only glittering gold coins, that's nothing!" Kate laughed.

"By the way, Kate, bring me a dark beer for my guards, and give each of us your specialty dish. We know we haven't eaten for a day!" said the goblin patting the bar and gesturing behind him.

Kate only then noticed that Ivo had not come in alone, but that there were four other people behind him. A warrior who looked to be in his forties and carried a two-handed sword on his back was standing behind him at this time.

There was also a young man who looked to be twenty-six or seventeen years old with a bow and arrows on his back, and a small man of somewhat thin stature, who always liked to hide himself in the shadows, sat at a table next to him, and the last one, a female magician in a magical robe and a staff in his hand, sat with them.

"Oh, Ivo! Looks like you've been doing quite a bit lately. Kate raised an eyebrow as she beckoned the hostess to serve a few people food. Three men are nothing, warriors, archers, and thieves are common for adventurers and mercenaries alike, but the presence of a mage in this small team is a bit surprising.

You must know that as a spell-casting profession, a magician, even if it is a first-level magician, if you want to hire it, the price is definitely not low. Any spell-casting profession is a money burner.,This is recognized by Talumia's big 6.,Naturally, if you want to hire such a profession, if you give a low salary, people won't look at it at all.。

Generally, some small adventure teams or mercenary squads are unlikely to see spellcasters at all, and even medium-sized mercenary organizations have very few magicians, and most of them are magical apprentices who can only be used as supporters.

"Oh, of course, my dream is to set up my own trade union!" said Ivo with some pride to Kate's words.

"But it's rare to see you so generous! My signature dish is not cheap. Kate whispered with a smile.

"Oh, Kate, how can you say that, I've always been generous. It's just a few gold coins, and their strength deserves such treatment. Ivo pretended to be very bold. However, when talking about the gold coins, it was obvious that the distressed expression on his face flashed.

After receiving Ivou's signal, the warrior also walked to the table where the other three people were sitting, and after the food and drinks were served, the four of them chatted quietly while eating, and several people were obviously accustomed to the noise of the tavern. Looking at the way several people talked, the oldest warrior with a steady personality was clearly the leader of the squad.

The young man with the bow and arrow on his back was more talkative, and he said to the leading warrior as he ate: "Commander, why did you say that those pointy-eared elves had to come here with our employer this time? ”

As he spoke, he looked at a table near the door, and saw two men in cloaks and hoods on their heads sitting at the table, and they were asking for some very light food.

The leading warrior looked at him and said, "Rykel, just do your own thing." Why those elves came here was a matter for them and their employers. The employer pays us enough, then all we have to do is keep the employer safe. As for other employer-related matters, it is not something we should inquire about. It's the rule!"

It seemed that the warrior was very prestigious in this squad, and Lecker, who was carrying a bow and arrow, stuck out his tongue after hearing his words, and did not dare to say anything more.

However, it was obvious that not speaking made him feel very uncomfortable, but after a while, he turned to the short, thinner man and said, "McGonagall, although the contract we signed this time is a bit troublesome, but the commission given by the employer is really quite a lot, you see how about we change the equipment on our bodies." I've wanted an elven bow for a long time. And you, as a thief, don't have a good dagger with a sharp edge, why don't we go to the auction together next time?"

"The auction is too expensive!" the thief named McGonagall was apparently a reticent man, and even when questioned by his companions, he would just spit out a few words and then stop talking, much to Lyckel's annoyance.

Abandoning the taciturn thief, Lecker said to the sorceress who had been sitting there quietly dining, "Calia, don't you want a new magic staff? I remember that your staff was slapped by the fire-striped leopard in the last battle, and it seems that it can't be amplified, right? and the captain's sword should be repaired. ”

The female mage named Kalia put down the knife and fork in her hand, took a handkerchief, wiped her mouth elegantly, and said, "Okay, Lekel." The failure of Tarela's previous mission not only didn't make us a penny, but even the 500 gold coins of the mission collateral were lost. If it weren't for this escort mission, we wouldn't even be able to afford to eat. Although the employer gave him a lot of money, many members of the team were injured during the last mission, and several members of the team who died also needed to give their families pensions. It takes a lot of money to heal the wounds and bereavement benefits, and in the end, we don't have much gold left after this mission. ”

Somewhat disappointed, Lecker picked up his glass and took a sip of his beer before saying, "Then why don't we agree to the long-term contract offered by the employer, that's a lot of money." If you can sign a contract, the honorarium will be enough for everyone in the group to update their equipment. ”

After hearing his words, the leading soldier frowned and said helplessly: "It's because the remuneration of that contract is too generous, so I didn't agree to it immediately." ”

Hearing this, the sorceress Kalia also put down the wine glass in her hand and asked, "Captain, do you suspect that there is a trap in this contract?"

The soldier who was the commander of the regiment shook his head and said, "If someone from another race offers such a lucrative long-term contract, maybe I will sign it directly." But the race of our employer this time made me worried. You must know that goblins have never been a generous race, but this time our goblin employer is a little strange to be generous, so it is very likely that if we sign a contract, we will face a lot more danger. ”

The other three were silent when they heard this, although mercenaries themselves are a profession that deals with danger, but it doesn't mean that they don't care about danger. Moreover, the reward that Aivo gave them this time was indeed a bit excessive, which forced them to consider whether the dangers they would face after accepting the contract were beyond their means.

Ivo didn't know that his guards were frightened by his rare generosity, and there was nothing he could do.

The journey to the Tarela Forest was not easy, and several times he was almost killed by bandits or monsters. For the sake of his own life and a bright future, he had to urgently hire a group of guards. And the highest-ranking mercenary group he encountered was the one he hired.

Things are also relatively coincidental, this mercenary group has just failed because of a mission, not only did not make money but lost a group of manpower, and the group continued to use funds to turnover. Ivo was overjoyed and offered an unprecedented high price to hire the other party to protect the safety of his trip, but when he proposed to hire the other party for a long time, the other party unexpectedly refused, even if he offered a high price that he would never usually offer, the other party just said that he would consider it.

After drinking the last stout in the cup, Ivo patted the table and said, "Old friend Kate, you should have a spare room here, open a few rooms for me and my friends." Saying this, he pointed to the four high-ranking mercenary group members behind him and the two people sitting by the door who were hiding their faces with hoods.

"Of course!" said Kate nodded, and then he shouted to Mary, who was greeting the guests, "Mary, take the guests to the room upstairs, here's the key." ”

Mary, after dodging the hands of several drunkards, came to the side of several people and said, "Guest, please come with me." ”

The four high-ranking members of the mercenary group and the two people sitting by the door followed Mary up to the second floor. Obviously, the rush along the way made several people feel tired. After saying goodbye at the door, several people went back to their rooms to rest.

Night Song fell silent on the second floor of the tavern, and occasionally a few words came from the hotel door, and the voice would be very soft. Except for the female mage and Ivou, everyone else lived in a multi-person room. Two men with hoods live in one room, and three men in the mercenary group live in one room.

After more than ten minutes, the door to a room next to Ivo was gently pushed open, and out of it came a man who wrapped his whole body tightly in a cloak. He walked up to Ivo's door and knocked lightly on Evo's door with a certain rhythm, and soon the door was carefully opened, and the mysterious man dodged into Ivo's room.
