"I didn\'t expect to see that old geezer here, looks like he won\'t accept my proposal to join us," Thinking about how their meeting went Ivan went back to the adventurers who were stationed outside the city.

They were eagerly waiting for Ivan to bring good news since they didn\'t have anywhere to go right now. Some of them planned to go to the other kingdoms until this heat of war dies.

"How long do we have to wait here? I\'m bored," A cute-looking girl with a witch-like hat complained with an annoyed look.

She wasn\'t even on the leagues of Daphnia or other Velian girls but she had overall cuteness in her.

"Guild master went to discuss, wait until he returns," Answering her was a burly man.

Most of the people who came here were either waiting for temporary accommodation since most of them wanted to go back.

It took Ivan a good amount of time to return after discussing things with Velian. He was shocked to see a familiar face among these people so he knew things took an unexpected term.

*Sigh

"Whatever, I will wait until this war to see what happens, maybe I will have to discuss with the empire to not harm our citizens," He thought while walking toward the group of adventurers.

"Even though we don\'t have branches in that empire because of those annoying people, we still can influence them, I hope this new emperor is not foolish enough to against us and create a bloodbath,"

Seeing him coming out of the small gate of the city, everyone quickly ran in his direction to see what happened.

"Guild master, what happened?" With an excited look witch girl asked.

Ivan looked at the group before showing a disappointed face.

"Looks like this is a failure, of course, who wants to help someone who attacked them without any reason," Hearing his voice, all of them were disappointed.

"Then our only option is going to Montreo or Dukas but they are so far," Since most of them had no families or even those who had families were young and careless they weren\'t too reluctant for a long trip but still it felt unreal to visit a completely unknown area.

All of them got ready to leave seeing no answer coming from the city but suddenly, one of the guards came running in their direction rather quickly.

"Excuse me, guild master, our viscountess said she will allow these adventurers to stay," Hearing his voice everyone was happy since most of them were exhausted.

"Come in, our captain is waiting to escort you," All of them quickly walked into the city.

They kept walking observing the people and their odd jobs. Even as adventurers who had seen strange things in many places they couldn\'t identify some mechanics these citizens used.

"When did this discount become so prosperous? Didn\'t the kingdom call them rebels and attacked recently," Most of them were confused.

There were new kinds of foods, armour, clothes and ornaments which was the result of Velian and others\' hard work.

"Delicious! What kind of food is this?" On their way to meet the so-called captain, they tried different dishes since they were hungry.

"I don\'t know, I never knew these types of foods, even the capital didn\'t have this much flavour in their food," Whole group was surprised by all this except Ivan who already tried this food.

"Not only power but the knowledge to manage things and create these types of new creations," seeing his adventurers enjoying these foods he felt satisfied.

"Truly a monster, is he planning something in this small city? Is he sent from the empire to spy on the kingdom?" Ivan had many questions in his mind. He wanted answers for them but he didn\'t want to overstep his boundaries and anger this monster.

"Let\'s go now that you finished your meal," Grabbing everyone reluctant to leave the food stand, he went to meet Sariya.

It didn\'t even take them a few minutes as they saw two women waiting for them with few guards surrounding them.

"That woman with red hair!" The witch-like girl exclaimed seeing her mana. Since she was a magic user she was clearly able to see these people were not to be played with.

"She must be at least A ranked, I didn\'t know there were A ranks hiding in this faraway city," She was surprised and confused.

"She\'s the sister of the new ruler of this city, don\'t offend her," Warning them beforehand, Ivan met with Sariya who looked at them with a neutral look.

"You must be guild master Ivan," Sariya already knew everything what happened between Velian and Ivan but for the sake of conversation, she questioned Ivan.

"It\'s my pleasure to meet you, new viscountess," Ivan bowed his head a little showing her respect since she was a noble.

"Guild master, you don\'t have to, I\'m not a viscountess anymore, I\'m just supporting master Velian to create a good city, that\'s it," She said while giving a smile.

Delviny observed everything with attention but deep down she hated these types of formal meetings since they reminded her of the nobles of empire.

"My brother agreed to provide accommodation for all the adventurers but under a few conditions," Delviny spoke with a neutral face. She had no interest in any of these adventurers since all of them are less powerful than her.

"One, you\'re not allowed to leave without permission until the war end, if you want to leave this city you should do a contract that you won\'t tell anything about this city to anyone," Hearing her words, Ivan had a difficult face since he knew adventurers won\'t like it.

"Absurd! Why can\'t we leave?" They started to protest.

"We are adventurers, we can\'t stay in one place,"

Delviny felt angry hearing their arguments but she restrained herself as she didn\'t want to ruin anything.

"You guys attacked us and tried to kill us, we are still helping because we don\'t want conflict with adventurers but if you can\'t abide by these rules you\'re free to leave," Hearing Delviny\'s harsh words they couldn\'t even argue with her.

"Secondly, you shouldn\'t bother our citizens, they worked hard to build all these and we don\'t want to undervalue them," None of them had anything to say since the second rule wasn\'t that harsh for anyone.

Ivan discussed these rules with all of them for a few minutes. In the end, all of them agreed to it since it wasn\'t harsh for anyone. It certainly will restrict their freedom but right now they valued staying in this region instead of going to another kingdom with unknown people.

"We agree, I hope to work with all of you," Ivan said with a friendly smile to which Delviny and Sariya reacted the same way.

"Welcome to our city then," Assigning a few guards to show them some accommodations, Both Sariya and Delviny went back to meet Velian.
