Chapter 78: 78- Undercurrents (2)

The girl on the right had elf-like ears and short blonde hair, while the one on the left had cat-like ears and a furry tail, indicating that both of them were demi-humans. The Central continent was mostly populated by humans. However, there are still some clans and species of various races that can be found occasionally in the central continent.

At this moment, the hands of the man roamed freely around the bodies of the two girls, but it did not evoke any emotions from them as their eyes seem to be vacant and hollow. Just like lifeless dolls, they quietly sat beside him, the collars in their neck establish their identity as slaves.

The man fondling the bodies of the two women was none other than the lord of the mansion, Baron Morgress, and also the guild master of the Seven Swords.

At this moment a thin man with black attire and a hood covering his face stood up from his seat and gave his report. "Guild master Morgress it seems that the information provided by that man Miser was indeed real. We have found the location of the Forest Spring Spirits. From my intelligence report, it appears that Laris and his party finally found their settlement in the Ghastly Winding Forest". The man gave his report and looked towards Mrgress who indulging in his own activities.

"They are at this moment trying to subjugate the Forest Spring Spirits, which made taking few big movements unavoidable as a result several monsters have charged out of the forest and fled towards Mountmend". The man in the black garb finished his report and sat down on his seat.

The others seating around the table digested the information. Indecent noises sounded across the room; However, nobody paid attention to Morgress' actions as they were already used to it.

Listening to the report from his associate Boris, Morgress stopped his philandering activities before he smirked and replied "It's alright, that pathetic mayor of Mountmend, Alfred should clean up some of our mess. Make sure to tell them not to reveal their identities". He disliked people such as Alfred who worked not for himself but for the people of his domain.

Morgress believed that people born with privilege should use their power for themselves. There was no meaning in helping the weak. However, Alfred didn't seem to agree with his ideas and even rejected his proposal of slave trading in the city of Mountmend. Now when the time came to get back at him, Morgress was naturally happy.

He laughed at Alfred's misfortune before suddenly adding "Ah, I remember you giving me a report saying that a new dungeon has emerged in the Ghastly Winding Forest?!".

The man in the black garb who just gave the report was named Boris, he was also one of the Seven Swords of the guild. He nodded at those words and replied "That is true guild master. A month ago when Laris and his team went into the Ghastly Winding forest, they accidentally discovered a dungeon. After that news came to my ears, I dispatched some of my underlings to scout that dungeon. According to them, it was a newly emerged dungeon located at the eastern side of the forest."

Morgress laughed in derision after hearing that it was a newly emerged dungeon, after all, not counting some of the exceptional ones, most of the new dungeons start from the lowest [E] rank. It takes years for an average dungeon to rank up, not to mention that the newly emerging ones are always hidden in places that are difficult to tread or find.

Other than some exceptional cases, the fate of the newly emerged dungeons which have been discovered too early, always ends up with getting subjugated and their dungeon cores destroyed by the adventurers.

It was nothing new to him, after all, he and his guild had similarly subjugated a newly ranked [D] tier dungeon a decade ago. It was also because they presented the remains of the destroyed dungeon core to the royalty of the kingdom of Ellesmere, that they were given this territory to reign.

Although he did not know what use the remains of a destroyed dungeon core had, it must have its usefulness for them to even bestow him a peerage and a domain. However, he was not interested in that.

Suddenly as if an idea struck him, Morgress gave a fierce smile as he asked "Which Adventurers guild did Alfred request the commission to?".

"It was the branch guild of Sea God's Trident" Boris replied. Right after saying that, the man frowned and took out a small shell before a serious expression descended on his face.

Seeing Boris hold a small conch, the other members seated immediately knew that the man had received a sound transmission from his underlings. But what surprised them was immediately after listening to the message, Boris's expression became grave.

"What's wrong?" they asked curious about the message Boris received.

"Hm? About that, a report just came in from my underlings placed in the city of Montmend that Godwin and Raven from the Sea God's Trident arrived at the city a few days ago" Boris shared the content of the message.

"What!!!" Morgress got up from his seat as he pushed the two women away. Shock and fear that was as clear as the day was plastered on his brawny face.

Surprised by the intense reaction of their guild master, Boris and the other three seated didn't understand why the report would evoke such emotions from their guild master. Boris hurriedly asked, "What is the matter guild master?!" he couldn't understand why Morgress had such an intense reaction after hearing his report.

But he was a cunning man, he immediately understood the reason was because of the names of the two men he just mentioned.

To induce such reaction from Morgress who was a level 500, Grand Lightning Warrior, Boris was shocked, to say the least not to mention the other three members of the Seven Sword.

Realizing his actions, Morgress calmed his mind and sat back in his seat. But no matter how much he tried to calm his mind, the turbulent thoughts wouldn't let him settle down. "I can't believe that those two would appear in this extremely remote corner of the Kingdom of Ellesmere. Damn… why now of all times. If it goes on like this, things would become dire and my plans will all be thwarted.. No… it can't be".
