Alex Hambell retorted, unaware of the changes in his surroundings.

"That's not a curse item but a magic tool."

"Magic tool?"

"This is called a smartphone. This magic instrument is a communication type, similar to the communication orb."

She observes the magic tool's mana usage and determines that it is not corrupted.

"I apologize for making an assumption."

She bowed and apologized.

Everyone resumes their normal activities after learning that the object is not cursed.

Even though it was late, he noticed that everyone was staring at their place.

Remembering his system task, he seized this opportunity right away.

"Do not worry about it. By the way, I'm selling this magic tool in my shop, which is on the northern side of the entertainment section, near the protection wall. However, I do have some of it right now. For 50 mana stones, I guarantee that you can communicate in any situation."

He remarked this after pulling out a box of smartphones and displaying its contents to her.

She said, helplessly, "I think I'm gonna pass."

Well, it is a 50 mana stone after all.

It will take a few months for her to earn an equal amount of gold coins.

Meanwhile, other individuals became fascinated about his smartphone and decided to contact him later or visit his shop later.

Before the talk progressed, he noticed that one of his tasks had been fulfilled, but he ignored it because he still needed to save other people.

Alex Hambell: I'm in the guild now, but they require evidence first, so I'll let you speak with the receptionist.

Vince Leviathan: I understand. Again, thank you.

And he returned his smartphone to the receptionist.

"Before we get off track, you can start talking to the person on the other side of my smartphone to know the other information."

"You don't need to do that."

Suddenly, he heard a voice behind him and took his smartphone.

"Aun—"

"Huh?"

She gives him the impression that if he says anything else, something bad will happen to him.

"Sis Erica. I assumed you were still asleep in your room."

"Well, I'm here."

Even while she accepts that she is his aunt, that does not imply she wanted to be called that.

Erica Hambell: Hey, Vince. Where is Aqua?

Vince Leviathan: "E-e-rica?" How did you —

At this point, he discovered they were both Hambell.

'He is her kin, so it's no surprise his name is familiar.'

Vince Leviathan: We are confined in a trial chamber someplace in the Zura Forest. Please help us!

Erica Hambell: I don't care about it. I need to hear Aqua's voice right now.

Vince Leviathan: Please wait a little bit. I'll add you to the group call.

Several seconds later...

Aqua Infinity: I missed you, Erica!

Erica Hambell: Are you alright?

Aqua Infinity: I am fine, but we are stuck and divided. You must rescue us!

She enjoys adventuring, but she values her life more.

Erica Hambell: Do not worry about it. The guild has already organized a crew to rescue your team.

Aqua Infinity: Appreciate it.

Erica Hambell: You are welcome. We're leaving now, so I'll end the call.

Aqua Infinity: OK.

Vince Leviathan: Hello, may I—

However, before he could speak, Erica Hambell disconnected the phone.

"Here"

"What the—"

She tosses his smartphone, which Alex catches.

"Return to your shop. I still have to save them."

Without waiting for his response, she joins the rescue crew and exit the guild.

Since his duty was completed, he needed to accomplish his task, but how?

Although he was able to promote his smartphone, no one will spend their money on an unknown miraculous instrument.

However, before he could make a decision, someone approached him.

"Is this actually a communication tool?"

A man with golden armor inquired.

"Yes. If you want, I can show you what my magic tool can do."

People who became inquisitive watched the show.

Before they started, the man decided to trust him and give him 50 mana stone.

"This is a smartphone. It's slim, like a guild ID card, right?"

He let the man handle a smartphone from one of the crates he owned.

"Yeah, it is."

"To open the smartphone, insert some of your mana. Then tap the icons to immediately learn how to utilize these programs. It's that simple.

While Alex Hambell speaks, the man follows his directions.

'Surprisingly easy to use.'

The man compliments in his mind.

Now for the major event: the communication function.

They tap each other's smartphones to exchange contact information before beginning the exam.

The man exits the guild building and arrives at the wall gate.

It was already far away, so the man called him.

He gasped, not expecting to be able to connect with each other despite the distance.

Everyone inside the guild building witnesses their testing.

As soon as they finished testing, he was swarmed by individuals eager to buy a smartphone from him.

Seeing the crowd's reaction, the receptionist, who also watched the event, decided to assist him in getting away.

Unfortunately, they aren't fighters, therefore as soon as they assist him, they are rendered defenseless against these adventures.

"HALT!"

A roar erupted, causing everyone to stop moving.

A tanned woman with a well-endowed physique appears from the second floor and looks down at them.

"Who is she?"

Alex Hambell let his thoughts out.

An old man heard him and appeared disappointed in him, but he still decided to respond.

"Angelina Valentine is the Guild leader for the May City branch. How did you not know that?"

He smiles helplessly as the old man responds.

He doesn't know her due of his unique upbringing, so he opted not to argue.

When the receptionist recognizes her voice, she expresses gratitude.

"Thank you guild leader."

This is the word most receptionists use when they are saved from being squashed by a large crowd.

The woman jumps from the second level and, before landing, casts a levitation spell to stop in midair before falling.

If she does not complete this, there will be a hole in the guild building.

"Follow me."

She looks at him.

"Eh? me?"

Alex Hambell is astonished.

"You are Alex Hambell, right?"

"That's my name."

"Then follow me to my office."

She then walks back up, and he follows her.

Why did you jump in the first place?'

Everyone is perplexed by her actions, but they aren't bothered for now.

Most individuals were enticed by his product and opted to visit his shop later.

Unfortunately, just as there are people with good intentions, there are also people with evil intents.

"Boss, are you certain about this? That kid's background is not a joke."

A group of six persons has gathered someplace in the guild hall, away from the others.

"Do not worry about it. We just need to take his earnings."

Another group in the guild hall meets somewhere they can converse together.

"If we can get all of those products, we'll be rich!"

"Shhhh!!! Be quiet. Lower your voice."

"I'm sorry."

"Tonight, we're gonna go to that boy's shop."

"Roger!"
