Otherworld Adventure 36 End Of The Event 2

'These b.a.s.t.a.r.ds...'

Cecil empowered his outstretched arm and pushed the person who had knocked against Lucia. He didn't care whether the person did it intentionally or not, all Cecil saw was a group of idiots who had almost knocked down Lucia. If it wasn't for him catching her, Lucia would have probably hurt herself, so he thought.

The person who was pushed was sent tumbling into his group of friends. The tumble had also sent their friends colliding with the other people around them. A small clearing had formed in the crowd of people in front of Cecil and Lucia.

"Move." Cecil said coldly. His voice immediately silenced the adventurers who had just got up and was about to start cursing at him.

Cecil had started projecting his killing intent into the surrounding. The pressure that was coming out from his small body had caused the area to turn cold for a moment.

He grabbed tightly onto Lucia's hand and walked forward. The adventurers around them were bewildered at how such a small boy was exuding such a fierce amount of pressure.

The pressure was enough to silence the man who was sent flying by Cecil. Although he was a grown man, he was sent flying like a ragdoll, frightened, and silenced by a child.

His initial anger from being knocked away had turned into shame then it quickly turned into rage. He was about to draw his weapon and threaten the kid, but then he saw the cold look in the fox boy's eyes. Unbeknownst to him, Cecil had arrived just a step from where he was standing.

Cecil glared at the man and enunciated coldly, "Move."

The man shuddered and moved out of the way quickly, his rage was quickly doused by the cold word Cecil had thrown at him.

After pouring cold water over the adventurer, Cecil continued on his way towards the event booth while retracting his killing intent.

Behind him, Lucia was staring at Cecil with a red face and eyes sparkling. She started giggling and smiling from ear to ear.

Seeing as Cecil was heading towards them, the rest of the crowd obediently made way for the two.

When they arrived at the booth, Cecil stepped back and pulled Lucia in front of him.

"Let's hurry Lulu... my mood's been spoiled now." Cecil said with a light scowl.

"Okay, Cel~" Lucia said cheerily and started talking with the lady manning the booth.

'd.a.m.nit, that b.a.s.t.a.r.d just had to ruin my mood.'

Remembering the fool who dared to knock down Lucia caused an unexplainable fire to burn in Cecil's gut.

'Tsk, what's with me? I feel so stupid getting worked up like that. Lucia could have probably handled the situation herself easily.'

While he was reflecting on himself, Lucia had finished turning in the proofs.

The clerk lady was shocked at the amount of proofs the little fox girl had turned in. She quickly cast a spell and a numerical popped up on the board she was holding. She looked up again at Lucia and noticed Cecil frowning behind her.

'Ah, isn't this the boy from that party?' She thought. "Okay, so that's another 176 for... Scarlet Blaze, yes?"

Lucia was surprised hearing that the clerk lady already knew her party's name before she even gave it to her, she then saw where the lady was looking at and turned back to look at Cecil. She then remembered what Cecil had said earlier.

She quickly responded to the lady's question. "Yes~"

"Hmhm, good job. You little ones sure are diligent. Here's today's bonus for crossing the 100 and 150 milestone."

The clerk handed Lucia 2 bank cards.

"Oh... t-thank you. What's this for?"

"It's the bonus for every adventurer party if they could hand over 100 proofs of subjugation in one day. And if I'm not wrong you've got yesterday's bonus for the 100 milestone yes?"

Lucia then remembered that Cecil had handed the party 2 bank cards yesterday which they had divided the amount equally amongst themselves. Cecil didn't explain where he got it since he was too preoccupied with his meditation and experiments.

The party only a.s.sumed that one of the bank cards was payment from the materials the party sold, the other card they didn't know what it was for. Lucia concluded that it was from the milestone bonus.

"Okay. The ranking announcements will be on the day after tomorrow. It will be announced in the plaza at noon. Don't be late okay! I have high hopes for your party getting first place!"

"Thank you, excuse us then."

Lucia turned around and grabbed Cecil's hand and walked back towards Milly and the rest.

On their way back they didn't meet with any problems from the other adventurers and Lucia made sure to stay clear from the previous group that Cecil had caused trouble with.

She wasn't worried that Cecil would cause any problems, but if the previous group pushed Cecil's b.u.t.tons in the wrong way, Lucia knew all too well what Cecil would do to them.

They quickly met back with the rest of their party members.

"SO! What should we do now?" Tyr asked.

"Let's settle these materials first, and then head back to our inns and rest." Miles replied.

"Oh yeah, here's today's bonus for pa.s.sing the milestones!" Lucia said while taking out the 2 bank cards from earlier and pa.s.sed them to Milly.

Milly however immediately pushed the cards back to Lucia.

"Keep them Lucia. Today's efforts were mostly due to Cecil anyways, so let him keep the bonus. He also lost a rather good sword on the first day. Besides, we'll be splitting the materials equal ways remember? It didn't sit well with me at first, but now that we can give the bonuses to Cecil, at least this will compensate his efforts a bit."

"The sword wasn't really that precious or anything, and it was OUR efforts, mind you. I didn't do anything for the first 2 days remember." Cecil retorted.

"Cecil, just take them. If we get first place, then it's because of your last spurt today. We got half of what we hunted for the past 2 days today just by your efforts alone," said Miles.

Even the always serious Miles agreed with his sister. Cathy and Tyr were also nodding in agreement.

"...Well, if you insist. Thanks everyone." Cecil thanked the group and took the cards.

He then took out his newly issued bank card and pressed them together. The cards merged and the credits inside the two cards were transferred into Cecil's bank card.

He took a look at the bronze colored bank card in his hands.

Bank of Alterna - Bronze Card

Name: Cecil Silvaria

Credits: 150g (gold) 66s (silver) 854c (copper)

The bank cards also had their own rankings. Starting from bronze card, the bank card ranks go all the way up to a diamond card. The way to upgrade them is by having the required amount of gold inside the card for upgrade.

1 - 9,999 gold for Bronze rank.

10,000 - 99,999 gold for Silver rank.

100,000 - 999,999 gold for Gold rank.

1,000,000 - 99,999,999 gold for Platinum rank.

And lastly, 100,000,000+ for Diamond rank.

The only benefit in having a higher bank card rank was the prestige and recognition one would get when using the card in any kingdom. A kingdom's royalty would sometimes take notice of you if you had a high enough bank card rank.

'So we get 50 gold for every milestone. How generous,' Cecil thought.

"Alright, since that's settled, let's hurry to the guild. I wanna drop the wagon off then head to the ranch with Silver before the gates close." Cecil was already heading towards the adventurer guild before he even finished talking.

Silver started moving and all the adventurers in front of the party made way for the colossal monster.
