Chapter 52 - Chapter 52: The Criminals’ Familia

On the other side, at the Adventurer's Guild, Hayasaka Ai and the others were in the first-floor reception room. After Eina and her colleagues verified the value of the Magic Stones and materials, the Valis was handed over to them.

"Captain Hayasaka! Let my Koro handle this!"

Seryu watched as the Adventurer's Guild staff laboriously carried the box filled with Valis, and the 'thud' sound when it hit the floor echoed through the room.

Seeing this, Seryu immediately stepped forward and suggested to Hayasaka Ai that using the enlarged Koro to handle this kind of thing would be no problem.

"Ngh... Woof!"

Koro whined slightly upon hearing its master assign it a hauling task. It was supposed to be the main combat force! Now it was just an animal hauling goods.

"Be a good Koro! Didn't we go to the Dungeon today? There'll be plenty more battles, and these are all spoils of war!"

Seryu patted Koro's lowered head, comforting it.

Comforted by its master, Seryu, Koro quickly cheered up and agreed to the hauling work.

"Miss Hayasaka, this is the amount we calculated. Please let us know if there are any issues."

Eina summarized the calculations made by her team and presented the document to Hayasaka Ai.

"I trust you completely!"

"Thank you... The amount is approximately fifty million Valis."

Eina was naturally very happy to hear Hayasaka Ai's trust; the feeling of being trusted was wonderful.

"Knock knock knock!"

"Please come in!"

Just as Hayasaka Ai and Eina finished speaking, a knock came from outside the door.

Eina gave Hayasaka Ai and the others an apologetic look and then called for the person outside to enter.

"Lord Lin—Lin Feng?!"

Eina had not expected Lord Lin Feng to be standing outside the door, thinking it was just a colleague looking for her.

"Lord God! You're here!"

Hayasaka Ai was not surprised to see Lin Feng appear outside the door; after all, this was the agreed-upon plan. They were meant to draw the majority of the adventurers away so he could sneak out of the Dungeon undetected.

Naturally, they would meet up at the Adventurer's Guild afterward, as they needed to exchange the huge amount of Magic Stones and materials for Valis.

"Seeing you all return safely, my wildly thumping heart can finally start to calm down."

Lin Feng feigned a worried expression as he looked at Hayasaka Ai and the others, speaking words that made one's skin crawl.

Eina, standing nearby and witnessing this, had her elf ears tinged with pink. She looked at Lin Feng with a slight blush.

"Hello, Eina! My children have been well cared for, thanks to you! I am very grateful."

Lin Feng knew what kind of girl Eina was: diligent, capable, and always willing to help others....

"N-no need to thank me. This is all within my scope of responsibility. I will naturally do my best to help every adventurer who needs me."

Eina was initially flustered by Lin Feng's praise but quickly recovered from her shyness and replied humbly.

"Eina, what about those adventurers who delivered the monsters? How dare they do such a thing? Such adventurers must face severe punishment, otherwise..."

Lin Feng's main purpose for coming to the Adventurer's Guild was to find out which Familia those adventurers belonged to. Such a Familia and its members absolutely had to be punished severely. Even if they received the victims' forgiveness, they would still face some form of penalty.

...

"They are... from the Apollo Familia."

Seeing Lin Feng's clear intent to pursue the matter, and knowing that mortals could not lie when facing a god, Eina could only tell him the god of the Familia those few adventurers belonged to.

"The Apollo Familia..."

Lin Feng naturally knew about this Familia. It was considered a large Familia in Orario, with a considerable number of members—at least over a hundred people.

However, they didn't have many high-level members. Their strongest member was only one LV3 First-Tier Adventurer.

Out of the hundred-plus members, most were LV1 adventurers, with only scattered few at LV2.

After all, leveling up here was not easy; one had to achieve great deeds, which meant defeating powerful enemies.

So, considering this, the Apollo Familia's strongest member being LV3 still made them quite formidable in Orario.

"Lord Lin Feng, the Adventurer's Guild will impose certain penalties on the Apollo Familia. I must ask you to..."

Eina, seeing Lin Feng's expression change, immediately tried to dissuade him. She knew that the Lin Feng Familia had only been established for a few days, and their adventurers were essentially newbies.

If they were to go looking for trouble with the Apollo Familia, unimaginable consequences might follow.

"Eina... this matter absolutely cannot be overlooked."

The situation in the Dungeon was tense at the time, which was why Lin Feng hadn't issued an order to flee quickly. Besides, why run when they had the power to annihilate the monsters?

But the Monster Delivery incident couldn't just be ignored. Lin Feng had to retaliate fiercely.

"Yes! Lord Lin Feng! The wicked enemies are right before us! Our justice must be carried out!"

Seryu, who considered herself a messenger of justice, immediately stepped forward, saluting loudly toward Lin Feng.
