Chapter 70 Points Get!
Arriving back at Dawn Creed City, we could see something had happened in this place. There was a big battle anyone could see if they crossed here. With the stench of blood, many monsters and people were killed.
The city gate was still intact, meaning that the city had successfully defended the gate. We went to the front gate and saw some guards.
Just as we were about to enter the city, the guards outside stopped us. "Hold it! Show us your identity before you go in!" The guards point their swords at the gate blocking the entrance. The five of us had school uniforms, so I didn't think we would need to prove that we were students.
"I'm Isabelle Goldlocke. The second daughter of the Goldlocke family." She then took out her student card and showed it to the guards.
"Goldlocke, eh? Do you have proof that you're from the Goldlocke family?" They questioned her, making sure that she was speaking the truth. It was a crime to pose as a noble if she couldn't put in proof, they would arrest her and put her up for interrogation.
Isabelle then used her magic and summoned a brick of gold, handing it out to the guard. Inspecting the gold brick, the guard looked at it with a glimmer of happiness before the gold brick disappeared. Disappointed, he let us in without questioning us any further.
Going in, we could see more guards than usual. There weren't many people outside since it was night, and the rest of the students and city folks were asleep. Most of the people we would see would be guards.
"Let's look for a place to rest. We will be leaving this place and returning to school after tomorrow. Even though we slept earlier, it would be better for us to adjust our time schedule for the day." They didn't have anything to complain about, so the five of us went to a hotel to see if we could book a room.
It took us a while for us to get a room. Some of the establishments had closed down for the night while the rest of the rooms were full. Finding a room was a miracle itself. We agreed to meet up first thing in the morning after we had woken up, taken the keys to my room, and began to be in deep thought.
These six days were pretty rough. Due to my past and present shelter, I knew I wasn't the type of person to go out in the wilderness for a long time.
But it also was a valuable experience. I wondered how the other three fared against this. Would they still be alive holding a grudge against me? Or would they be dead from the monster tide earlier? I sigh, having thought about it, but time will only tell tomorrow.
A day had passed by after my rest at the hotel. I felt a bit tired for some reason. Even if my body was sore, I still had to get up. I began doing some light stretch seeing if this would fix this feeling for a bit.
I left the room and headed to the main hall to see if anyone was there. Looking around, it looked like everyone else, but I had arrived.
"Sorry if I slept in for too long." I apologized, seeing that I had made them wait.
"It's fine. It's still pretty early. We were excited to see our earnings," Isabelle spoke for the whole group. Seeing their faces, I could tell that she was telling the truth.
"Then, should we go to the school's examination site?" It was still early. I didn't know if they operated at this time.
"We shall!" The receptionist, an old lady, smiled at us, seeing our chat. She bid us farewell as we left the hotel, thanking her we went to the school's examination site.
The examination site was less crowded than before. Luckily there was an available receptionist. Walking to her counter, she said, "Welcome! How may I help you?" She asked happily.
"We would like to exchange our findings for the exam," Isabelle spoke like she was experienced in these kinds of things.
"Would you like to use the back room so we would be able to record your findings?"
"Yes, please." Having to do so, we followed the receptionist and entered the back room, taking out all the corpses we had taken. The receptionist began to examine the materials that we brought.
With how many items we had, we had to wait an hour before the receptionist calculated everything. That would be 86,250 credits with a bonus of two times. You would get 172,500. Hearing that, I knew that I was rich. The previous amount of credits I had to earn was nothing compared to this.
"How would you like to divide it? I would assume that some of you are in different groups." It was odd seeing five of us in a group; it wasn't hard to deduce this.
"60% percent for her and 40% for us," Isabelle said. She thought I did an exceptional performance to get the bonus. I may have to owe her in the future, seeing that she was doing this to gain my favor.
"We would also like to check out the artifacts we found in a dungeon." The receptionist was shocked when she heard this, but it was a welcome surprise for her.
Taking out the artifact, Isabelle handed her the three artifacts we had gained. The results were shown after scanning the necklace we had gotten. The necklace would regenerate your mana by thirty percent, and not only that, but it also increased magic that is related to water by twenty percent.
The staff we found increased your magic's strength by 10% and water and spirit magic by thirty percent. Both of the items were pretty great. Only the medical pill was left. I wondered what the pill would do.
