The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

They were currently in the middle of challenging a dungeon but as that dungeon could be entered from anywhere, they had no reason to stay in this city anymore after getting their ranks promoted.

So after Lauren was done informing her teacher about her decision to undergo further training in mana control, Magnowel happily gave her his blessing and apologized for his son\'s misconduct. He had tried his best to stop him from going over to the city of Joum.

But then Magnowel had to leave for an important meeting. During that time, Theodor bribed one of the guards to let him out for five minutes or so and that foolish guard was greedy and allowed him to leave.

Then after coming out of the special room that was restricting his mana, he knocked the guards out and used his subordinates to leave for the city of Joum.

After Lauren was done, Rein took her to the Xetremelia Empire while Tasha and Stella were going to do a little shopping. Rein was going to spend the night in Xetremelia Empire and they would leave the city the next day.

...

After coming back from Xetremelia Empire, Rein took Tasha and Stella to the merchants guild. Rein was planning to raise his merchant guild rank even in the city of Hetharna but after the incident with the slave traders, he changed his mind.

And he was only aiming for C and D rank which was not too amazing and most of the slightly larger cities had the ability to promote them to that rank.

But getting to rank B was a bit different and difficult. To become a rank B merchant, a person needed to have a permanent shop in a city.

So as Rein and his team were not really merchants but just adventurers with no intention of opening a shop in any city, C was the highest rank that they could reach.

The promotion to this rank was simple. Unlike the adventure guild, the merchant guild did not need them to take tests or anything like that. For merchants everything came down to benefit.

So Rein just sold quite a few valuable material through this merchants guild which brought the guild a lot of profit, so the guild master decided to make Rein and his lovers X rank so show his goodwill.

Rein was happy about this as it was not like he was losing money here, so he decided to accept this help from the guild master and all of them became C rank merchants.

Rein was not someone to just accept any favour, so he repaid the guild master back by giving his merchant guild a very rare item to sell. For merchants, this was the best and most straightforward repayment.

Now that The Conquerors were done with everything they wanted to do, it was time for them to leave the city.

As for where they were planning to go, actually they did not have an exact destination in mind. As they were already working on a dungeon, they did not need to find another dungeon for the time being.

So they decided that they were not going to choose a particular destination until they are done with clearing their current dungeon.

Instead they were just going to go to the adventure guild to search for some escort mission and would accept the mission with highest difficulty and rewards. The destination of that escort was also going to be their destination.

After entering the adventure guild, Rein went straight to the receptionist and asked for the escort mission with highest rewards. As a mithril ranker, Rein was capable of accepting all the requests from this guild except the designated ones. So, he was easily able to accept the highest paying mission.

For this mission, the conquerors needed to escort a family of 7 to a city called Manni and they were not the only team participating in this mission. One another team would also be joining the conquerors of this escort mission.

It was an excessive amount of security for just a family of 7 but that just meant the people giving this mission were either very rich or were very important or both, which was most likely.

Their mission would be starting from the early morning of the next day, so Rein spent the whole day pampering his lovers.

The next day, the conquerors went to the northern gates where they were supposed to meet with the family they would be escorting. After reaching the meeting destination, Rein was able to find someone he knew. It was none other than Jack who took the mithril rank ascension test with Rein.

So the group who had accepted this request alongside The Conquerors was the "Golden Reverie". Rein knew Jack decently well so he went and greeted him.

As they started talking, other members of the Golden Reverie also came to them. Currently their leader, Trista was not here as she would be coming with the family they were going to protect for this mission. But other than her all the members of the Golden Reverie were present here.

Other than Jack they had 3 more people in the group. One was a middle aged human sorcerer with a typical mage-like attire. He was actually quite good with his water magic. Next was a petite looking pink haired girl holding a hammer larger than her own body.

She was a dwarf and her physical strength was very impressive. And the last member was a foxkin with attire like a shrine maiden. She was the priestess of the party and mainly acted as a healer for them.

It was a solid party with well balanced members. Rein and Jack introduced each other\'s party members. The dwarf girl was named Sara, the human mage was Scheger and the foxkin girl was Kaguya. From Jack, Rein also came to know about the result of the ascension test.

Actually none of them were able to become true mithril rankers yet. Jack and Goul were given temporary mithril rank tokens as the guild was not completely happy with their power levels, but they were still very close to the mithril ranks.

So the guild gave them the temporary tokens and they needed to take another test after one. Only by passing this test they would be able to become true mithril rankers.

As for Hans, the guild had judged him unfit to be in the mithril rank. His only summon with the power of a true mithril rank could not be used for too long and he himself was very weak compared to someone at the mithril rank.

For that reason, even though he performed very well in the second test, he was still unable to become a mithril ranker for the time being.

As they were talking about these matters, a group of 5 carriages came toward them. Those carriages looked very luxurious and only a few influential people could afford them. Trista, the mithril rank adventurer and the leader of Golden Reverie came out from one of them.

So this was probably the group the adventurers needed to guard.

The mission was starting.
