Black and Blue

The night before, after Gristie had left dinner at the Raca-rac Bar, She went straight to the captain D'Breick. She told the captain that Jim Slavn was in Eastend Town, then She told all the stories She had heard from Jim to the captain. hearing the story, Captain D'Breick was very curious, and he wanted to meet Jim. He wondered if Jim was as strong as he had been told. then the captain told Gristie to take Jim to his room tomorrow morning.

Back to now, The three of them sat on the chair's, and the captain took his seat.

the condition of Captain D'Breick's room was so messy, maybe he rarely tidied it up. Plus the front door fell off and the floor was cracked. made the room feel freaky.

Captain D'Breick starts the conversation

" Jim, I heard the major died in the attack, then who leads Byre Town?"

Jim also answered "Now the highest strength is Captain Klax"

Then the captain looked as usual when he heard the name Klax, as he said

"hmmm, Klax Forterr, he's survived two Neiter raids, It would be great if Klax now leads Byre temporarily before the next major is chosen"

In fact, after the United of Regia was formed, D'Breick Weger Was appointed major during his general stay in Centrical City, but he turned it down because he didn't want to move to Byre Town, he loved Eastend Town too much.

thus General Hedorven appointed Captain Rowen from Minerock Town to become Major. Minerock Town located in the northern part of Gatelain. so Captain Rowen settled in Byre Town and became a major, and now he's dead.

so Captain Klax temporarily Lead over Byre Town until awaiting the General's decision.

then Captain D said again, "never mind it doesn't matter, Rowen died because he was weak, bwhahaha. the most important thing is, how can you kill two flying monsters with one hit?"

Jim replied humbly "hehehe, I'm just lucky, Captain"

then Captain said with a laugh "hehe, you are very interesting, it's true that strong people cannot be proven by words, but by fighting. and I've tested you, bwahahaha "

seeing the captain laugh, Jim countered with a smile.

suddenly Captain D glared at Jim's eyes, he curiously asked "Jim, who is the strongest between me and that flying monster? "

Jim was silent for a moment, and he thought about using his skills.

seeing Captain D's status, Jim was shocked and muttered: "He's Strong !!"

Jim was also surprised at some of his unknown skills, Jim kept thinking about it.

if the unknown Skill was due to Jim's level still not enough to see it.

Jim leaned back a little, then he said

"it seems, you are more terrifying"

"bwahahaha, Then there's nothing to be afraid of if Neiter attacks here," said Captain D'Breick arrogantly

then Gristie interrupted "we must stay alert anyway, captain."

"because it's Gris, I called Jim for help" captain

Gristie then said to the captain "aren't you being too rude captain? You almost killed Jim, now ask him for help"

Captain D'Breick said" hahaha, calm down Gris," I just tested Jim's strength earlier "

then suddenly a quest appears from the system window

[Notice]

Quest

free the black magician woman

Category: Additional quest

Difficulty: C

Duration: -

Reward: 20 Point

5000 Gold

Failed: -

----------------------------------------

Jim was surprised to see the notice of the quest, he was tempted by a fairly large prize, then he immediately asked the captain

"Captain if I may know, what does the captain want to ask for help?"

"hahaha, you seem curious Jim, I want you to free the black magician woman!"

Hearing that chat, Gristie was surprised and said "could it be Her? , captain?"

"Haha, you are right, Gris !, how is Jim? If you release him, I will fulfil your request" said Captain

Jim was even more confused about the direction of the conversation, he asked

"isn't black magician evil? why should it be released? "

Captain also laughs, and he answered Jim

"hahaha it seems most people have the wrong perception of black magicians "

Then Captain explains to Jim what a black magician is

In this world, mana divided into two kinds, where is blue and which is black, the source from which blue is derived from life energy, such as nature, humans and animals. as for black mana is the source of death energy. where that death energy comes from a living thing that is dead, if a living being dies, they will emit death energy. that energy is called black mana

for someone who can absorb and utilize black mana, they are usually called black magicians.

but very few people can or evoke black mana in themselves.

but it can be ascertained, black mana users are strong people.

Jim also understands the difference between Blue Mana and Black Mana, but he is still curious about the Quest Captain. then he asked again

"But captain, you are strong, why don't you free her with your own hands?"

Then the captain replied "I can do it myself, but since the United of Regia was founded, I can't deny the peace agreement between nations. "

The black magician woman was arrested before the formation of the United of Regia, but now all the nations of the whole Regia join and form the United of Regia. and they agreed to unite and make peace between countries.

If Captain D'Breick took care of the Black magicians himself, then it could be considered that Gatelain betrayed the United of Regia agreement. Because Captain is one of the leaders of Gatelain.

then the captain said "The Prusiudeus kingdom knows me, but they don't know you, Jim. and you are strong. therefore you are the right person to free that woman "

The black woman is now being held in a prison in the Prusiudeus kingdom. that is, the Way to Centrical City must pass through the territory of the Prusiudeus kingdom.

then Jim asked again "

If all the peoples of Regia are at peace, why not free the prisoners?"

"hahaha, many nations have proposed it, but according to the joint decision, all prisoners are not released, because they are afraid it will affect the balance of each nation" answered Captain.

Jim began to understand it, but before accepting the Quest, Jim put forward several conditions.

"I will accept the quest if the captain is willing to teach me and Jill how to absorb and collect mana" Said Jim

then Captain fulfils Jim's request without being free. he said

"bwhaha, your request is very easy bwhaha, your request is so easy, is there no other request?"

Jim was a little happy because it was beneficial for him and Jill. then he answered the captain's question "Maybe while that's all, captain "

then the captain replied "okay Jim, I'll prepare what you need and I'll explain where the prison is"

then saw the Quest window, and I accepted the Quest

[Quest]

Free the Black Magicians Women [Y/N?]

The captain also explained the location of the prison in detail to Jim.

Then during the conversation, Gristie said to the Captain

"Captain, can you please let me go to accompany Jim?"

the captain replied "are you sure? I just promoted to vice-captain, shouldn't you stay here?"

then Gristie also gave the reason to the captain "I know, I'm sure it will be very useful to Jim because I know the way to that jail, plus, I have a debt to pay."

hearing Gristie's words, it seems the Captain can't prevent Gristie's wish. The captain agrees with Gristie's request.

Gristie had recently been promoted to vice-captain of Eastend Town.

overhearing the Captain and Gristie's conversation, Jim praises Gristie

"You're great. Gristie, been vice-captain of Eastend Town, that explains all the time we're at the gate because everyone listens to you. "

Gristie blushed at Jim's praise. after that they also talked about how the plan to free the black magician woman.
