I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

Sambier!

Count Sam looked at Anno and Philomena sitting in the living room drinking tea, and couldn't utter a single word he had prepared.

Moreover, Anno in front of him gave Sam a completely different feeling.

When the two were discussing things earlier, Anno was all smiles, but he was exuding a sinister aura.

Anno is now completely different from before, exuding a kind and gentle aura.

However......

Sam felt that Anno's oppressive aura was several times stronger than before!

"Anno's back...who put a coffin at the door?"

Princess Rhine, who ran into the living room from outside, saw the black and white coffin standing at the door and looked at it with confusion and disgust.

But her attention was soon drawn to Anno, who was sitting inside.

Rhine straightened her gorgeous princess dress and tried to speak in a mature and regal tone, "You only left yesterday, why are you back after just one day? Are you trying to abandon the commission?"

For Rhine, a day was far too short to complete the task.

In fact, if Anno hadn't encountered some issues on his way back that delayed him, he would have returned yesterday.

"Of course not!"

Anno put down his teacup and extended his right hand.

A transparent crystal ball about ten centimeters in diameter appeared in Anno's hand.

As Anno channeled magic into the crystal ball, scenes appeared inside, like those in a movie.

Sam and Rhine went closer to look and discovered a familiar town.

The two exchanged a glance, then looked at Anno with a puzzled expression and asked, "Kaze Town?"

Anno nodded and said naturally, "The sea creatures in the town have been cleared out, and the high-level sea creatures inside have all been killed!"

However, the town's residents were frightened.

Except for a few who remained in the town after being rescued, almost everyone else escaped Kaze.

After hearing Anno's story, the young girl Rhine stood there dumbfounded.

The sea creatures that Count Sam said required a high-level professional to lead tens of thousands of troops to subdue were actually defeated by Anno in just one day!

Earl Sam was equally shocked.

However, he still had some doubts in his mind.

If Anno completes the mission, the high-ranking guards he sent out should return and inform him immediately.

And there's something that's really strange about Sam.

Dart, who went out with Anno, never showed his face.

Anno glanced at Sam and immediately saw through his thoughts.

"If you're still waiting for your subordinate, then I can only tell you to stop waiting."

Sam's pupils contracted upon hearing this, and he asked incredulously, "He...is dead?"

"Um!"

Anno nodded and said to Sam and Rhine, "To be honest, there are some problems with your intelligence."

The high-level sea creatures in Kaze Town are not just two seventh-tier beings, as you claim!

There were ten high-level beings inside, one of whom was even at the eighth level!

"What?"

Sam trembled when he heard the number.

Meanwhile, Rhine, standing next to him, immediately started to imagine the scenario.

Adventurers, preparing to carry out the princess's commission, arrive in Kaze Town intending to eliminate the sea creatures, only to discover that the number and strength of the enemies there far exceed their expectations.

Faced with a formidable foe, Count Sam's men no longer hide and reveal themselves to help Anno and Dart.

The battle was fierce.

Although all the enemies were killed, Dart and Earl Sam's men all died in battle!

Only Anno survived.

Meanwhile, Philomena, who was eating and drinking nearby, was believed by Rhine to be the little girl that Anno had rescued from Kaze, a town ravaged by sea creatures.

This also slightly changed Rhine's impression of Anno as "not a good person".

However, as long as she knew the difference between the seventh and eighth tiers, she wouldn't have such wild imaginations.

Earl Sam knew all too well how powerful an eighth-tier fighter could be, leading nine seventh-tier fighters and a group of sea creatures.

Unless the duchy sends an army to encircle and annihilate them, he, as a count, simply cannot overcome such strength.

But now, they've been dealt with by Anno and his two companions!

"I've come back for two things."

Upon seeing Rhine appear, Anno cut to the chase: "One is the reward for the commission, the Eye of the Ocean. The commission is complete, and you need to pay me one of the largest models of the Eye of the Ocean."

The second thing was rather strange.

Several high-level experts have appeared within your territory, and they harbor strong hostility towards me and your people.

Anno's words puzzled Sam and Rhine.

"Actually, the sea creatures in Kaze Town were a minor problem. But after I resolved those issues, those high-level powerhouses appeared!"

Anno looked at Earl Sam and explained, "Your Excellency, your men were killed by a suddenly appearing peak eighth-tier expert, and Dart also died at that person's hands!"

"Um?"

Sam's body trembled again.

His own men hadn't died in the battle against the sea creatures.

Instead, he was killed by a human at the peak of the eighth rank!

Although he couldn't understand what Anno was saying, he had a feeling that what Anno was about to say would be a disaster for the Duchy of Aureber!

"Although I eventually killed that eighth-tier expert who had inexplicable hostility, I encountered another eighth-tier expert on my way back to Sandbir City that afternoon!"

I originally planned to follow the clues and find out where the other party came from.

But it was eventually discovered.

Left with no other choice, I had to kill him, and that killed the trail.

Anno looked at Sam, who was in a daze, and advised, "However, he said something before he died."

Once the holy war begins, someone will surely avenge him!

I think you should have your king investigate this matter as soon as possible.

After a pause, Anno added, "If your king still has the strength."

If Anno encountered a Kachi, he probably wouldn't think twice.

However, peak eighth-tier level is not something that comes easily.

I encountered two in a row.

Although there was no clear evidence, Anno felt in his heart that those people must be powerful beings from other planes.

The shadow version of Anno was not very clear about the situation in the Duchy of Aurel, but the real Anno had some knowledge of it.

This country, which has a large number of islands, is currently engaged in a large-scale war with the sea creatures.

Compared to them, the number of sea creatures in the Ai'er Mountains of the Kingdom of Nigar can only be described as a small-scale war.

If the sea creatures of the Aiur Mountains were as large as the Duchy of Aurel, Anno wouldn't feel comfortable leaving the Kingdom of Nigar.

However, Anno didn't know much about the Duchy of Aurel.

All that is known is that the [Hunter's Fang] has already participated in this war.

He is currently planning to go to other planes, eager to open up new resources to enhance the strength of the guild's adventurers, and has no time to get involved in the affairs of the Duchy of Aurel for the time being.

Even if something goes wrong, the six-nation alliance will eventually step in to help.

Anno felt that the holy war was also a point worth noting, and that investigators would need to be assigned to investigate it.

Just as Sam was still processing Anno's words, he heard the very thing he least wanted to hear.

"Your Highness Rhine, please give me the Eye of the Ocean!"
