"Tie up the rest of them." As the merchant trio were speechless Shun commanded the two bodyguard/servants.
"What happened to the people that disappeared?" Zoltan asked curiously.
"They are sent to Magic Council branch located in Magnolia, they should fall in front of their doors in three days."
"Anyways you can rest, let your servants take turns in nightshift" Shun said cruelly
"…"
'Let's see the loot, though I don't have any expectations'
As Shun checked their magic weapons, the servants quickly tied up the unconscious bandits.
'As expected just bunch of common items, like a first floor loots from rpg games. A sword that emits a fire that is only enough to light, a dagger that can paralyze the victim for 3 seconds, a lantern that can speed up the regenaration speed by 10%'
'I will just store them and sell them later. though they look like garbage items from mage perspective, to normal people it will fetch a high price. '
…
Next morning after recovering his magic, Shun sent the rest of the thieves to magic council.
The rest of journey was uneventful, perhaps the news of the previous bandit group getting wiped out reached the ears of other bandits.
It took them 3 days, finally they saw the sight of Crocus city.
As the capital of the Fiore kingdom, it was a huge city. With population of nearly 10 million people. Even the royal family of Fiore kingdom resides here. The place where the future 'Grand magic games' will happen.
After Zoltan finished talks with the city gate guards. They were allowed to enter.
"Alright, the mission has been completed. I have doubled the reward for you." Zoltan said flatteringly.
"Oh, thanks" Shun said, though he is already has a lot of money. More is always good.
"What's your plan after this, Mr. Shun" Zoltan said
"If there is anything you need don't hesitate to ask me." He added
"I'm gonna rest for a week or two before returning to the guild. I can ask anything? Then can you search for information about a dark guild that is kidnapping people and making them do labor."
"Yes, of course" Zoltan said eagerly, happy for the opportunity to curry favors.
…
Shun took the reward and separated with the trio. He walked around the city aimlessly. He went into an expensive looking shop to buy 2 sets of clothes for himself. Then he toured the city Crocus. Dining at various places, restaurants and street vendors.
He then found a decently priced inn to rest. 7000J for a day. Neither too cheap nor expensive.
'It's been a long journey, I will spoil myself and rest for a week or two. Before searching for the tower of heaven'
'It truly has been a long journey, first transmigrating to this world, then having to live in a jungle and cave for 5 years. Working at a black company for 3 years really made me able to adapt in any situation huh.'
'After half a month of vacationing, I will start searching for tower of heaven then try to recruit some talented kids to fairy tail and create a team like the main cast or Laxus' Raijinshuu guards, then take the S class test and become S class magician.'
'I also want to make a job out of my highest tier skill, and create high class restaurant. So I don't have to rely on missions to pay my bills, Zoltan will probably happily invest.'
'I already have my life goals for the next decade or two planned out for this world, but to reach any of that first I need to get stronger.'
'My ultimate goal is to become Fairy Tail's guild master. So I get an access to Fairy Tail's so called 'darkness''
'Anyway, for now I will face what's in front of me and search for tower of heaven'
…Time to rest.
