The cart drove by a dark grayish hair with pointy ears girl slowly approaching the thing in the middle of the crowd. Upon reaching it, the girl hop down in front of a dark greyish hair man next to the Odd thing.

"Naois you said, right?"

The Odd thing nod.

Thing fortunately has already settle down with the villagers and their previous concerned eyes has changed to wondering eyes. There is 7 people which each of them wear an exotic earth reptile coat in the middle of the crowd alongside Gillion and his younger sister Selia.

Thing has settle down and the 6 other people already rescued. So do the spoils from the monsters Naois defeat before.

"Next time, make sure you don't drenched in blood before speaking to people, it could lead to wrong impression, you know?" remind Gillion to Naois.

"Do you all have a place to stay?" he continued to ask.

Naois and the others began to look at each other, hoping at least a person from them remember anything. But it not seems like the case.

Gillion let out a sigh. The 7 people in front of him is the weirdest case he ever encounter after living for 5 years in the village.

First, each of them claim to not remember anything beside their name and the fact that they were siblings. Second, how could them be siblings when they looks like come from different place and race? Naois is clearly a human coming from Northern continent but he claim to be siblings of a western looking male human, southern dwarf man, eastern female human, western elf woman, eastern elf boy, and a southern beastwoman? Who would not question it?

Gillion take a look at the spoil Selia bring from the forest, 2 death mutated squirell, a death adult Ork, and a young Ork. He made some calculation before nodding to Selia and turn to Naois.

"Do you have a place you intend to sell this Goods to?"

Naois quickly replied "No". After all how could they know where to sold the goods when they had no idea of the surrounding area?

"The meat this Orks have is around 430 pounds, since it is an Ork and not a Boar I will need to inject ether to this, it will loss at least 85 pounds. since the blood, teeth, fur haven't removed and ether injection process haven't been done yet so I offer you 90 Pecunia* for every pounds of meat it have after ether injection process, and for the squirrel Do you willing to sell it or eat it yourself?"

Naois just stood silent, in fact Naois know nothing about the average boar meat price or average income a person need to continue living there. Both parties stood silent until a person decided to speak.

"120 Pecunia for every pounds of meat after injection, how about you sell it to me instead?" a fair skin black hair lady with a long sword on her back interrupt the conversation. Every eyes turn to the lady but she doesn't look nervous at all, she must have used to that kind of big crowd attention for she herself is a stunning figure. She looks like in her late 20s, a rare eastern beauty. Her mature beauty made her looks like a figure of wicked yet beautiful concubine from a painting, in term of beauty she sure was a match even for the beautiful eastern young woman named Qinglan next to Naois.

"you could also join Wells Guild if you don't have a Guild yet. Gillion is Alvar Guild is small and only full of people who would burdened you, our guild is clearly better. We have an inn with hot spring, you will have 10% discount for monthly room and bath payment. 5% discount for common item and exclusive item our guild's merchant will bring here every 5 days."

The lady sure know how to run a business. The offer sound pleasing and who would reject it?

"… Sir Gillion, do you have a guild? Can you please explain to us what do your guild offer?" Naois asked while touching his chin.

"… not as much as their guild offer, we are much smaller than them. But I could give you 10% discount for every weapons I sell in my shop and a small residents near the waterfall to live. You may not find exclusive spell book or item in my shop but I could guarantee you that the quality of the weapons you bought from me at least C+ grade."

After stood silent for a moment Naois exchanging eyes with Gillion and then to the lady and back to Gillion again.

"Then how about 100 Pecunia for every pounds of meat after ether injection?" offer Naois to Gillion.

Naois's statement shook everyone. who would offer a lower price if someone already want to pay you with a higher price?

"Sir Gillion, you are the first one to help us in this village. you prepare horse and cart when you know our situation without asking for any money before. If not because of you, my sibling probably would not be here and possibly facing danger in the forest now. So a small discount would not even enough to repay you."

Everybody even the lady stood silent, none of them would think that the adventure would think like that when offered a higher payment, normally almost all adventure will just chose the higher payment and forget the kindness. Although Naois surely look so innocent, the view of Naois drenched in Ork blood still fresh in their mind giving them a hunch that Naois is not that good person who would still remember the hand helping him in this kind of situation but Naois prove them wrong.

"If you accept, you could began calculating all the goods."

"Ah, right. 100 pecunia for each pounds of boar meat, after removing the bones it will be around 235 pounds so 23.500 Pecunia. The tusks of the young Ork will sell for 150 Pecunia each while the furs will be worth 1600 Pecunia. The head of the adult Ork could be sell around 5000-6000 Pecunia in the city, I could sell it for you in 1 week but I will take 20% of the selling price as my payment. While for the squirrel, each of them will be sell for 500 Pecunia. The total will be 26.400 Pecunia. Deal?"

"Could you do something with the bones? Is such a waste to throw it away"

"It could be made into a broth if you want but it will not worth much and it not possible to make it into weapon, Ork bones are weak."

"I see"

2 young man who previously joining the rescue and helping Selia to pick the Goods slowly approaching Gillion.

"Master, there is still 9 rooms left in our dormitory."

"Do you willing to join my Guild? I will not charge you for joining fee. You could also live in 3m x 5m room for 2000 Pecunia a month."

Selia Frowned, how could her brother not charging them? Her brother already offer high payment for the Goods, not charging the cart rent for the rescue nor the Goods pick up, and now he is willing to let them join the guild for free?

Selia was about to open her mouth when an old man who standing beside the lady from the other guild interrupting.

"As the Mayor here, I would not let you take them to the town even if it was you who bring them Gillion."

Everybody turn their to the old man upon hearing him. It boast the confident of the old man till Naois could saw his hunched back strapping a little.

"Gillion, do you already check for their background?"

"Yes, both I and Demen already did."

An elf step forward from the crowd.

"Gramps Winnie, I have already checking their background but I found nothing. No guild said they have adventures like them and there is no recorded criminal with their name and looks."

"Check it again, we could not bear the consequence."

The young elf boy staring at Gillion, Gillion giving him a sign of agreement with a nod.

"Understood, gramps. I will check it again" Demen nod slightly before come back to the crowd.

"You all could began washing by the waterfall or lake. I will prepare 2 rooms for you all."

"What did you just said!? Do you think I would allow them to even passing the town!?"

That old man Winnie really irritated Naois and the others, especially human man named Cassian which already show how resentful he was and the southern elf boy Sagara, Fortunately the rest of them think it still bearable.

"For the safety, they will only allowed in area 2 but not the other area, also they should leave the town at 7 pm and forbidding to enter the town till 6 am."

"How could they went to the dormitory if they could not passing area 5 or 6?"

"Not my business! Told them to live in the wilderness till we were finished inspected their background!"

The old man sure want them to just die.
