And the guru—a woman—was unfathomably powerful!Taal clearly remembered how the Ruler rank was nothing to her, as she was there when the Ruler-ranked assassins who crippled his legs were ready to finish the job.With just a gentle flick of her zither string, all their heads blew up, and they dropped dead, beheaded!Taal was naturally intent on repaying her after instructing his daughter as well, but she couldn't care less.But after Lisa virtually begged her to let them repay her, she said then, "You can do so by offering shelter to a youth named Cal Crawford, should he come here to Corvus in twenty years. With that, you can consider your debt paid."Since then, they never saw the guru again…Taal sighed wryly. "But it's Cal Crawford, not Caleb Crawford."He too wanted to repay the woman's grace for saving his life, as well as had the personal interest in befriending the guru!It had been twenty years since, and he really looked forward to Cal's arrival too…Lisa shook her hea

And with that, Caleb asked the receptionist, "How do we post quests?""You're posting quests too?" The receptionist was at once interested. "Tell me, what quest will you be posting?""The escort quest," Caleb replied. "Large cargo airships required.""How many members will you need in your escort, and how many airships?" the receptionist kept asking.She was naturally dumbfounded when Caleb gave her a list of the cargo—including the livestock—as well as asked for king-class mercenaries.Still, she posted the quest as Caleb asked: over ten king-class mercs, with each person paying 10,000 spirit stones.With ten, that was 100,000 spirit stones.King-class mercs were Scion ranked, and while Caleb would like to hire honor-class mercs, they weren't available and cost a million spirit stones each hire.It was way too expensive, and they couldn't even hire ten at those rates.Moreover, the mercs were not interested as soon as they saw that it was an escort quest for transporting li

Piotr snorted at Caleb's diss, and he turned to look at a distant rocky hill, where an elegant middle-aged man was laying on his back, using a book as a pillow as he drank from his keg.He looked as drunk as he was nonchalant.Naturally, Caleb's group was delighted to see him, since it was none other than the Rags Scholar!They all bowed their heads in salutation. "Greetings, Rector Willow!""Good! You've bought so much livestock that it's more than enough tapas." Rags smiled in satisfaction, nodding as he watched the airships fly into the distance.The meat especially was leaving him salivating.Looking around him, he shouted loudly, "You kids—the ones still hiding! Quit watching and let's work together kill them all, right here, right now!"At his words, a large group of black-clad masked men appeared, their auras even stronger.Seeing them, Caleb narrowed his eyes.They must be the Sanctuarians! Were they Larvics? Or perhaps Jormonts?!The leader of the black-clad men ho

Everyone narrowed their eyes at the trio too, with Piotr asking first, "And what brings you here, Princess Lisa?"Princess Lisa?! The Crown Princess?!The black-clad men were stunned, all of them looking somber.Even Rags turned in curiosity, as the Crown Princess of the Corvus Empire was more famous than the entire imperial household.While said household was nothing to brag about, Princess Lisa Corvus was as talented as she was beautiful.One might even say that her household would have fallen if not for her!As Caleb, Oxley, and Fafnir poked their heads out from beneath Bigby, Caleb asked in curiosity, "That's the Crown Princess of the Corvus Empire?""Yeah." Fafnir sighed somberly. "I think this is it for us… Heaven knows why she's here."Rumor has it that she's a Ruler rank and fights with a zither. And it's with the zither that she repelled hundreds of thousands at the border back when the Kuat Empire tried to invade!"Since then, her name has spread throughout Nors, mak

Watching as all the academy enforcers and black-clad men left, Oxley and Fafnir bowed their heads at Lisa. "Thank you for intervening, Your Highness!"Lisa nodded and turned toward Rags, nodding in turn. "Greetings, Rector Willow.""Not bad!" Rags smiled and nodded in approval. "Such beauty and astonishing power? Taal Corvus sure is a blessed father!""You flatter me," Lisa replied and turned toward Caleb. "I've always been a fan of the Eternia Seminary. May I be afforded the pleasure of a visit?"Oxley and the others were delighted as the princess was obviously offering to escort them back to the Eternia Seminary! Rags laughed heartily. "Of course! You have done us a huge favor intervening for our sake, Your Highness!"Then, turning to wink at Caleb, he said, "You're in charge of hospitality, kid.""Sure," Caleb replied, nodding—he had plenty of questions for Lisa too.And with that, Lisa and the two hunched elders joined their party, and the way back to the Eternia Seminary
