I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

"How could this happen?"

When Yarman saw that Ed not only didn't fight the robbers, but instead joined in surrounding the caravan, his face instantly fell.

"Ed, what do you mean by this?"

Faced with Yarman's questioning, Ed stepped forward and said, "Yarman, I heard you've recently found a way to make a fortune. I'd like a piece of the pie too!"

"Too much nonsense!"

Gris, standing nearby, snorted coldly, mounted his horse, and charged toward Yarman, slashing with his gleaming longsword.

Things have come to this point, and Yarman certainly cannot be allowed to stay.

Not just Yarman, everyone in the entire caravan will die.

Just as Gris was about to rush in front of Yarman.

A fireball suddenly flew over from the side.

Gris jumped off his horse to dodge.

boom!

The horse was hit by the fireball, its body covered in flames, and it collapsed after letting out a series of screams.

"Be careful!"

Ed saw a figure rushing down from a carriage and immediately ran to Gris's side to help him block the attack.

boom!

After parrying each other's weapons, they simultaneously kicked each other and retreated.

"Level 18 mage, level 18 warrior?"

After getting up from the ground, Gris looked at the two people who had run to Yarman's side and his face darkened.

"Yalman actually trained four Tier 3 professionals!"

When Gris charged forward, he had already sent his third-tier professionals to deal with the two adventurers Ed had mentioned.

Unexpectedly, there were two Tier 3 individuals hidden inside the carriage.

In addition to the third-tier professionals, there are eight second-tier professionals.

They now stood protectively around Yarman, their weapons pointed at the surrounding enemies.

"Keith, Masaka, it's up to you two!"

Seeing the professional standing in front of him, Yarman breathed a slight sigh of relief.

These people can be considered Yarman's last trump card.

He originally wanted the Grey Eagle mercenaries to deal with the robbers first, and if that didn't work, then Keith and Masaka could be brought in.

But I never expected it to be my long-time partner.

They were actually in cahoots with the robbers.

Keith was a slender mage who wore a hooded robe.

Hearing Yarman's words, he gave a wry smile and said, "Boss, the two people on the other side are both higher level than us. They also have hundreds of other professionals with them. The two of us are no match for them!"

Even if the two of them fought with all their might, they could only hold off the enemy at best.

The class difference is there.

"What should we do then?"

Just as Yarman had gained a sliver of confidence, his heart sank to the bottom.

"Boss, you saved our lives, and now it's time for us to repay your kindness."

Masaka and I will hold them off with our men. You should get into the young lady's carriage and escape quickly.

"We're done with this shipment; saving our lives is the priority!"

Just as Keith finished speaking, Ed and Gris led their men and rushed up.

He quickly waved his staff and cast a spell at Ed.

Masaka, who had been silent all along, now raised his greatsword and started fighting with Gris, who had charged at him.

The other guards escorted Yarman toward a carriage.

However, all the other robbers rushed forward.

Yarman was trapped five meters away from the carriage.

Although the second-tier guards around him were also quite strong.

However, facing an enemy that outnumbers them by ten to one, the disadvantage is certain.

Someone was killed by a sneak attack as soon as the battle started.

Watching the guards fall to the ground one by one.

Yarman was filled with fear.

When he saw a robber cast a spell on him, Yarman let out a desperate scream towards the carriage beside him: "Tina, run!"

Inside the carriage, a blue-haired girl saw this scene through the curtains, and tears instantly welled up in her eyes.

"Father!"

boom!

The fireball exploded after hitting Yarman.

The explosion knocked over all of Yarman's guards.

Even some of the robbers' compatriots were affected by the second-tier magic of their own people.

"Damn it, who cast that spell? Can't you see I'm still up there?"

One of the robbers got up, cursing.

Among the robbers behind, a second-tier mage quickly hid his staff behind his back, glanced elsewhere, and pretended nothing had happened.

Although the magic accidentally harmed his own people, Yarman, an ordinary human, had already been killed.

Keith and Masaka, who were at a disadvantage in the distance, saw this scene and their eyes were filled with sadness.

But as the smoke cleared, the robbers around suddenly discovered that Yarman, who had been hit by the fireball, was standing there unharmed.

Yarman kept his hands in front of his eyes, protected by a magical shield.

"I'm not dead?"

Yarman blinked, looking at his hands with a puzzled expression.

"Father!"

Tina, the blue-haired girl who witnessed this scene from inside the carriage, burst into tears of joy upon seeing that Yarman was still alive.

Just as she was about to lift the curtain and call Yarman to get in the car.

A loud "thump" suddenly came from above the carriage.

It looks like something heavy has been dropped on it.

Before Tina and the elf girl Phil could react, a mocking voice suddenly rang out from above the car roof.

"Hey, hey, hey, what's with the mercenary group turning around and killing their own employer?"

What you are doing is immoral.

Unlike me, adventurers in the Adventurers' Guild don't experience this.

Anno, perched atop the carriage roof, glanced at the stunned bandits below and chuckled, "As adventurers, having accepted Mr. Yarman's mission, we absolutely will not allow our employer to be harmed!"

"install?"

Yarman's expression brightened when he saw the person on the roof of the car.

He almost forgot.

Anko, whom I hired midway through my career, is not a mercenary, but an adventurer.

Its actual strength is still at the third level!

So, the magical shield on his body was cast by Anno's companion—Anno's weapons and equipment clearly belonged to a warrior, and Yarman had assumed it was a shield cast by Liz.

"What is he doing here?"

Upon seeing Anno appear beside Yarman, Gris, who was not far away, quickly looked towards the spot where Anno had initially been.

Before the battle began, Griss sent his five Tier 3 subordinates to attack Anno.

It's okay if you don't watch it.

Upon seeing this, Gris's eyes widened in astonishment.

Dozens of people lay quietly a few dozen meters away.

In such a short time, all of them, including the five third-tier individuals, had turned into corpses!

His subordinates include level 18 knights.

Even he couldn't possibly defeat a level 18 knight in just half a minute.

Moreover, there is the assistance of four other Tier 3 professionals and numerous Tier 2 professionals.

"Did that guy do this?"

Gris's expression changed drastically, his eyes filled with shock as he looked at Anno. "Fourth tier? No, his magic power fluctuations are clearly the same as mine, level 19!"

Whoosh!

An arrow shot from Ed's hand toward Anno.

Anno's eyes narrowed, and he dodged the sword by slightly turning his body.

"[Advanced Perception] Activated!"

Even in the midst of the chaos, Anno still preferred to keep his perception skill active.

"Liz, protect the people in the carriage."

"No problem, Master!"

Liz beside her responded and watched as Anno jumped from the roof of the car to Yarman's side.

"【Charged Slash】【Jump Slash】!"

boom!

Anno jumped down from the carriage and slashed down with his sword, causing the ground around his landing point to collapse.

The second-tier professional attacked by Anno was instantly killed by a single sword strike.

Anno turned and glanced at Yarman behind him, saying casually, "Mr. Yarman, the actual situation of this escort mission is no longer just a Bronze-level mission. The battle against a Tier 3 professional requires us to upgrade it to Silver-level! As for the reward..."

"Increase! Increase!" Yalman's face flushed with excitement as he hurriedly said, "Increase to 100 gold!"

"Alright!"

Anno laughed and then charged into the crowd of robbers.

"[Thrust]!"

"【Crossblade】!"

"【Moon Slash】!"

"[Lion's Consecutive Slashes]!"

Wherever Anuo went, sword light flew everywhere.

After the third-tier [Lion's Combo Slash] was unleashed, the dozen or so bandits who rushed towards Anno all fell to the ground at the same time.

This scene left everyone around them stunned.
