Strongest Man in Central Territory

[New Quest received] (Written on a piece of paper)

[Legendary Melvin has requested you help him defeat the Great King of the Sea]

[Difficulty level: A-]

'Hell no! Are you out of your mind! Hell no!' Harvard gently placed down the tenth quest he'd received from Melvin and shook his head. 'No way! I'm not doing any of these quests! This man is insane! I swear he has at least a 1000 bodies in his backyard! Hell no!'

"Ugh, how about this one for 5,000 Benevolence for just accepting," Melvin sat down at a table with his grandchild bouncing on his lap while a few thieves walked by in black armor. They were in a wine celler with lots of stuff for children. Not exactly what he expected from the first Dark Guild. "It's simple. All you got to do is promise to accept my quest when you get up to your third class."

'Let me see,' Harvard gulped. This was the easiest quest he'd gotten in a long time. However, there had to be some string attached besides the one tied to the paper!

[Learn the ways of the Legendary Dark Assassin when you reach level 60]

[The Legendary Dark Assassin is the ultimate compliment to the Legendary Midnight Ruler. Unfortunately, all of Melvin's students have died that didn't have the Legendary Midnight Ruler class! Would you like to promise Melvin you'll give it a try?

[Difficulty: A+++]

[System information: You think the 3 pluses are unwarranted! Just look at the orphanage back yard! There are thousands of bodies!]

[Reward for accepting: 5000 Benevolence]

'Ugh, I don't know," Harvard sighed and nodded his head. "It might take me a long time to reach level 60."

"Here you go. Here's your number. You'll be my 10,000th attempt!" Melvin smiled and pointed at the door. "Now, don't you dare sneak back in here and try and take Vanish Mina away from me! If you do, you'll be the 10,000th one of my students that died!"

Gulp!

Harvard rushed back towards his hotel and with a smile on his face before he finally saw his benevolence had appeared. He got 5000 Benevolence for just accepting that last Quest! It was actually a good day so far! Nothing bad had happened and the thunder wasn't even that loud!

[You have earned 5,000 Benevolence!]

He smiled and then saw another window he missed. Wait, why did it say he had no one in his guild? He had like 15 people before and he felt incredibly confused? Wasn't he a good father figure to them? Didn't Snow Lilly like him, or wait… Why wouldn't the damn notification open?!

'Oh, wrong button. I must have pressed something that made me think everyone left my guild.' Harvard nodded his head and opened the window. It was definitely good news!

[16 people have left the Snow Lilly Guild! You are now by yourself!]

[+300 Infamy!]

'Ugh, I was kind of expecting that,' Harvard felt the rain dripping from his soaked brown hair and sighed while he heard a few children screaming. 'Anything else? Anything else bad going to happen?'

Harvard turned in the direction of the screaming and saw a gigantic silver-green Alligatorbear running towards him in the rain. This day really wasn't going to get any better was it!

###

From a window, a few meters from Harvard and the pretty girl in the pink dress about to be eaten by the gigantic Alligatorbear.

"Did you hear?" A shivering drenched woman hid her child under the table while lightning struck the nearby terrain. Harvard had just started fighting the gigantic silver alligatorbear and pulled the girl out of its mouth! "The rain is causing the normally peaceful monsters to come out of hiding. I heard 10 Ghost Adventurers have been killed.

"AH!" Harvard jumped up and used Magnificent Slash in the air on the alligatorbear. "It was level 40, and he was angry! It was time to take out all his aggression!

Slash! Slash! Slash!

Harvard cut up the alligator bear slowly and jumped all around its body while a few nearby NPCS with their children screamed. He activated Ultimate Poison Blade and went ham on the damn alligatorbear! It had green skin, but looked like a bear with a long snout! It had to die! Die! Die! DIe!

Slash!

The NPCS husband that had just been talking sighed and looked outside. That was one of the weakest bosses in the area. It would only get worse. "I know wife. I know it will get bad. However, Hamlord is the real one at fault. What kind of idiot kills all the genie snakes! That damn Golden Seal ability is the only weakness of Krakens!"

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Harvard spun in the air several times and then cut the alligatorbear in half and then cut its intestines in half and then its heart in half and even its feet! "AHHHHH!" He screamed and rolled on the floor into a large muddy puddle. "It just keeps getting worse! Something good happen!

"YEAHHHH!" The townspeople screamed. "Thank god for you, masked savior!"

[+100 Benevolence]

[+5 infamy]

'Eh, it's still a gain," Harvard turned around and saw a shimmering golden piece of loot. "And I even got a drop! Things are looking up!"

###

145 / 150 teams had been chosen for the Dungeon Competition.

Snow Lilly's the 2nd Guild - the new name of the guild - had already qualified, and now all that remained was 5 teams to be chosen. Unfortunately, Snow Lilly couldn't celebrate without Harvard. He was the one man that would be the perfect wingman to help her target girls to recruit for the guild. She wanted another girl in her guild besides herself so she could stare at her when they were fighting bosses! However, she was so drunk, she almost thought she saw Harvard kissing a girl in the window. Why would she think about that now?

"Miss, do you want to go up to my room?" A man approached Snow Lilly

"Are you a woman?" Snow Lilly replied, "Are you a man or a woman."

"A woman," the man replied, "If that's what you want. I can make it happen."

"I'm so upset!" Snow Lilly tossed her glass at the bartender. "Screw you Kraken! Things were going perfect! I-I want another drink!"

"Sorry, you're coming with me," The large man put a bag over Snow Lilly's head and then tied a rope around it while she struggled. His arm seemed so fast, and she couldn't put up a fight. The green color in her pretty eyes faded and after a while she fell asleep.

A second later, that same man tipped the bartender in Greater Black Fist Tavern and all the patrons received a small cut.

The man said "cut" like stop acting, and then laughed before slowly pulling Snow Lilly up the stairs and towards his room. He was level 48, and also at number 1 on the leaderboard for all of Central Territory! However, he was also one of the few to welcome having over 20,000 Infamy! Only those with such infamy could get the restricted black label Quests! Only the most wicked beings provided those quests to Ghost AdenturerS!

He smiled and tossed Snow Lilly onto the bed and tied her up before smiling at a small boy on the chair. The small boy also looked evil, and rushed towards the doorway to deliver a letter to Hamlord.

This was going exactly as planned!

"You're perfect Snow Lilly!" The man gently brushed her hair and put tape over her mouth. Something seemed a little masculine about Snow Lilly, but he couldn't put his hand on it. "Anyways, Once I fully dispose of you and complete the quest for the Kraken to capture Harvard, I will be able to live in the underwater paradise while you all get wiped out to oblivion! Ha, let's see if he can resist me capturing his number 1 girlfriend!"
