VRMMO: Am I The Strongest Yet?

They needed to see the guard captain anyway, so it wasn\'t a bad idea to get the gift that he was going to give them either.

"Hello there, guard captain~."

Elio had gotten closer to the guard captain.

"Miu~!"

"Muuuu!"

And his two little friends were the same.

"I see you are in high spirits… alas, I am drowning in work."

After what happened with the town, there were a lot of deaths that they needed to record so that they could help the families of those who had lost their family members in the battle against the evil dark mage.

They needed to clean up many places as well, and thanks to the battle that they had just had, the town had become a little vulnerable with the guard forces facing the most losses.

Underground organizations who don\'t operate in the broad daylight were now running all around the town, so it was getting difficult for the guards to take care of them.

Various cases of theft, robbery, assault and such were being reported from all around the town so there was a lot of work that the guard captain had to do.

He was busy already, so with the lessened workforce and with the hectic, gloomy atmosphere around the town, there was a lot that he needed to look after.

"Thankfully, I have enough time to pass these two important objects to you two who should be able to handle them much better than the others here."

The guard captain had already thanked them for saving his life, for giving him those precious things through which he was able to summon the spirit guardian in their complete form, and for doing all that they did.

The thanking part between them was over already, so he did not waste long and just handed an old box as well as a small attractive dagger-like knife to the two of them.

"You already seem to have a bunch of good things that I won\'t ever be able to provide, but these things should help you in times of need."

He handed the dagger to Elio and the box to El as he continued with his work.

His desk was filled with a bunch of papers that he needed to look after, the schedule beside his desk had some unmarked boxes so he also needed to go around and do a lot more things later.

They could tell how busy he was, so they did not disturb him too much.

"Thanks for the presents. We will cherish them."

"Thanks, Axar."

Since the two of them had gotten closer as well, he did not mind them using his given name. But Elio still addressed him respectfully.

She liked being free with their talking and addressing so, she did not stick around with the honorifics much anyway.

She liked the free talking style so she mostly addressed people casually.

"And this is for you."

Now that they had received the gifts from him, and along with the gifts a pouch of money that contained all the money that he could spare at the moment, Alex placed an important looking parchment right on top of his current papers.

"What…?"

"We players are not some outsiders. Use us, dude. You don\'t have to suffer by yourself with all this work."

The paper that she had placed before him was a direct order from the Mayor to utilize the foreigner forces in the reconstruction of the town and to get direct help from them.

"...?"

When an incident like this happens, they don\'t usually ask help from the players since they know they will have to pay them.

And the help of the players was most of the time costly so, they found it better to just do the work by themselves or with the free or cheaper help from the volunteers and natives.

Nothing this big had happened to this town before so even the guard captain or the mayor knew how to deal with this situation, however, Alex used her chance to ask for anything from the mayor to do the mayor and this town a favor.

She showed the mayor data on how smaller towns that had faced the dark magicians or calamitic events like this recovered with the help of the players.

She showed them what kind of methods and techniques the natives of those places used and suggested what they could do to boost the reconstruction of the Moongold.

The plan that she made with the Mayor in the short conversation that the had was more than enough for the smart and capable mayor to draw out the basic starting plan for what they would do… and that plan was now before the guard captain\'s eyes.

"You came up with this, didn\'t you?"

He looked at her, before looking at Elio and the two creatures in his hands.

"I didn\'t. Well, I wasn\'t the only one. We did it together." Smiling, Elio shrugged and shook his head lightly.

He did like how the people of this bright town were so gloomy all of a sudden.

The glamor and the energy that he had seen just a few days ago when he came here were all gone and instead, an eerie silence had taken root here.

He did not like it. This bright town had won against the invasion of a very powerful being and instead of celebrating, they were being all gloomy.

He did not like it, that\'s why he had asked the mayor to organize a festival.

Something that they still needed some time to finalize…

"Hahaha…"

The guard captain also shook his head while laughing with a new energy.

"Very well then~!"

He was happy.

After reading only one page of the whole long thing, he knew just how effective this plan would be. Read new chapters at мѵʟ

They would be targeting the players and instead of paying them with money, they will pay them in tokens that they could later exchange for various unique things.

Just by putting a few good things on display, they can create a competitive atmosphere and everyone will fight to collect more tokens faster than the others.

And to do so, they will have to help out with various works.

"I thank you once again for all your help, you two."

The guard captain smiled at them cheerfully for a moment before continuing with his work with a new fire in his eyes.

He had never thought of something like this before… but now that he knew how he could take off some burden from his shoulders, he continued with his work with a new enthusiasm, excited to implement this new system in their town and see the unique results.
