76 Emergency Quest

I wait in the middle of a meeting room inside my castle. I wait for a rather powerful man. I am waiting for Zelretch. He called early in the morning, informing me that he was bringing the payment for him using the world of Harry Potter.

I never thought he would pay me this early, and I thought he would pay me after maybe five years or six.

I snap from my thoughts when I see the door to the meeting room open up. I look to my left and see Rin and Zelrecth walk inside the meeting room. Zelretch wears his usual Victorian suit while also holding a cane that has a massive jewel on top of it.

"Ahhhh, it has been a while since I breathed in a place filled with mana."

"Hmmm? Really?"

Zelretch looks at me before nodding his head and says.

"Yes. My base world did not have much mana in the air, and your Harry Potter world is the same and even worse than mine."

"You have not taken any mission?"

"I do. However, I usually take the one in my world. Do you know how many pests try to reincarnate into my world? There are too many of them!"

"Really? That many? I just got my first pest."

"Lucky. Usually, a world like yours will be the one infested by a pest."

"I see. Anyway, please sit down."

The old magus sits down and takes a sip of the tea prepared by Shirou. I let him enjoy his tea for a second before saying.

"So, what kind of payment do you want to give me?"

"Body part, mostly. Here is one of the things I want to hand it to you."

Zelretch put down a medium-sized jar on the table. I can see a purple liquid inside the jar that is bubbling like boiling water.

"And this is?"

"That is a Hydra poison. An adult hydra at that."

Instead of Zelretch, who answered my question, it was Medea.

"Hydra poison?"

"Yes. Hydra poison can even kill a god, especially if it was coming from an adult hydra."

I look at Zelretch, who nodded his head before saying.

"You want to give this to me?"

"This and other items on the outside."

"I see… Can we see that item first?"

"Of course, let me finish this tea first."

We arrive in the front yard a few minutes later, where I see three massive crates sitting on the ground. Zelretch flicks his finger, and suddenly the crate opens up, letting me see what is inside the box.

"These are the scale of a dragon, ten eyeballs from the Beholders, and lastly, a skin from a Nemean Lion."

I look at him with a surprised expression before saying.

"First thing first, what kind of zoo do you make in Antarctica? Second thing, how in the fucking hell did you get a beholder? Lastly, a Nemean Lion? The same kind that Heracles beat?"

"The best zoo the world has ever seen! As for the Beholder, I get those from the Open Market, and lastly, no, it was not the same Nemean Lion Heracles beat and killed. This is its brother."

I facepalmed myself at Zelretch's last answer.

"Meaning that this skin also can block any attack from humanity."

"Yup."

"That is rather powerful skin."

"Nope. This skin is rather cheap in the Open Market. This skin can only work on humans. There are many kinds of races in the universe, sadly. For example, there are many kinds of people that can break this skin in your world. Take Cao Cao, he is a human, but his Sacred Gear is created by the big G in the sky. He can still pierce your skull and kill you."

"Yeah, fair enough."

"Good. Anyway, this skin is strong enough to block many kinds of attack thought. So, as long as you do not let your guard down, you can expect this skin to protect you from a low to medium attack and other human origin attacks."

As long as I fight against humans, this skin can become an ultimate armor. However, Zelretch also says that this skin is not really useful in my world, especially with the main antagonist of my world, who is not even human.

Even then, this skin is a perfect material for my peerage, which is doing a contract.

"Next, Beholder's eyes are a rather expensive commodity. Ten of them equal one thousand points if you want to sell them. Or you can use this Beholder as a scouting device. They are good at it. Sadly, you need to buy the recipe if you want to use these eyes—lastly, dragon scale. Well, you know about dragons and your peerage about them, and I did not need to explain this to you."

I nodded my head and said.

"Yeah. Anyway, are you sure you want to give this to me?"

"Yes. This is the harvest I can bring to you as I did not have many creatures just yet. This is forty percent of the total harvest. However, expect more items in the next harvest in a few months. I just got myself a time spell. Anyway, it is nice to meet you, but I need to take care of something in my base world."

"Very well. It is nice to meet and do business with you."

"The same."

I grab Zelretch's hand and shake it before leading him toward the pillar where he can go back to his world. However, when we arrive at the pillar, both of our phones vibrate. Zelretch and I take out our phones.

|Emergency Quest! An emergency quest has been posted. All free personnel need to go to the company hub immediately.|

I look at Zelretch before saying.

"Did you also get this quest?"

"Yes. Come one. We need to get going. I already missed the emergency quest ten years ago."

Zelrecth opened up a portal to his company hub without waiting for me, and I decided to follow suit and open up my own portal. With my peerage behind me, we walk through the portal where I see hundreds upon hundreds of people already arrive in the company hub.

"This is the first time I have seen this many people in the hub."

Usually, I only see a couple of people in the hub, and they are my party members when I take some quest. I snap from my thought when a massive screen appears above all of us.

"Greetings. My name is Variel-Barinel. I will be your General in this emergency. First thing first, let me tell you about the emergency we are facing. Look here."

I can see an ugly green creature appear on the screen. That is a somewhat familiar creature.

"This is the Orks. They are a creature that appears in the omniverse of Warhammer 40k. They are a savage, warlike, green-skinned species of humanoids who possess physiological features of both animals and fungi spread all across the Milky Way Galaxy. They have this weird culture called the WAAAGH! The WAAAGH! is the name given by the Orks themselves to the massive military campaigns they periodically unleash on the galaxy as part of their eternal desire to seek out combat and war."

I know it. This is the Orks. The warmongering race orgasms when they are fighting a large number of enemies. Other than that, they are also plants. Yup. They are coming from a fungus. This makes them a mushroom. A giant warmongering mushroom.

"As its description said, these Orks decide to wage war against the company after getting access to the company hub from a foolish agent that tries to betray the company. Those people have already been taken care of, but the problem still stays. The Orks were already mobilizing a couple of confirmed billion of Orks ready to fight."

Damn. A couple of billions of armies are ready to destroy the world.

"The company already takes the planet that connects the company hub to the Warhammer universe. We now have to defend that planet from the incoming Orks. The big boss already killed their reproduction, and we only need to defend against a couple of billion Orks. You have ten minutes to prepare before we send you to the battlefield. Your caretaker will be your commander in your unit. Follow their order. You will be rewarded after the quest is completed. However, remember that deserting is not an opinion. We will hunt and punish a deserter. Anyway, good luck."
