[i]Wait... Earthquake...?[/i] Royse took another glance at her quest log. [color=f7941d]"Slave dealers, earthquake... Seems like I will be a million Jewels richer after this trip~"[/color] Royse smirked. An earthquake of this scale would affect any slave trading operations, and the best day to attack those slavers is no better than today. As a mercenary, she definitely wouldn't let loose this seemingly once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. [color=f7941d]"I'll be busy with something, so... later~"[/color] Royse said, and with a bit of her Wind Magic, she sped off to the exit of Magnolia, for a quick travel to the town of Crocus. She made sure that she didn't use too much magic just in case of dire situations. Though her way of thinking seemed too good to be true... [hider=Quest] Nobody cares about the poor Description The Flower Blooming Capital, Crocus, is by far the largest city of Fiore. It’s best known for the abundance of flowers, for the great outflow of people - tourists and the ones that comes to the city seeking for a better life - and of course for holding the Grand Magic Games. But as every metropolis, Crocus also has its problems. Some people from the poor outskirts of the city have been missing. The people missing are of both genders and all ages, the only thing they have in common is that they live alone on the poorest outskirts of Crocus. They are from all over the country and came to the city to work and send money home. The families complained about their disappearance to the Magic Council, but authorities said since there is no proof of a mage being involved, there was nothing they could do. Some of the families ask for the help of the Holy Knight Squadron, but the result was the same. The knights said that since there is no proof that these people disappeared or just left their families, there was nothing they could do. Aiko Hajime is the son of Kazuaki Hajime, who is missing. Aiko received a letter from his father just before he went missing. Mr. Hajime said that a gang of Slave Dealers have been kidnapping poor people in the neighborhood. They are hidden in an abandoned factory near Crocus. When the Slave Dealers gather a good number of people, the victims are imprisoned in a railroad car and taken by train to Hargeon, where they are taken by ship to Bosco Country, where they are sold as slaves. Mr. Hajime’s son raised enough money and are now hiring someone a guild of mages to rescue their loved ones. According to Aiko Hajime, there is a high possibility that his father is still at the factory near Crocus, since the prisoners are usually moved to the train during the full moon. Requester: Mrs. Miyako Ume (generous rich lady, citizen of Crocus, who sympathized with Aiko Hajime’s story; he’s staying at her house) Reward: 1,350,000 Jewels + magic potion (3 doses) that is able to completely restore one’s magic power and even enhance it (the enhancing lasts one week) Taken by: [/hider]
