Second World Chapter 136
Advertisement
Warpath's body disappeared and left behind two items. They were two swords, Jack was ecstatic that one of them was the rare sword from the Giant Queen Ant's loot. He immediately picked them up.
Queen's Protector, level 15/35 (rare one-handed sword)
Physical damage: 62
Attack speed: 2
Durability: 40
Endurance +2
Parry skill +2
The other sword was an uncommon level 14 sword. He stored them into his inventory, he would use both to strengthen his Storm Breaker later.
He turned around and walked to where Queen Magenta stood. When she saw Jack coming towards her, she immediately began to panic and took a defensive posture.
"W– what are you trying to do?" She yelled.
"What are you panicking for?" Jack said to her. "I just want to remind you about the bet we made yesterday. Certainly you still remember?"
"Be… Bet?" Her mind was in a mess so it did not occur to her at first.
Selena whispered to her ear about it. Her face then contorted to beyond ugly. They had lost their chance to get the Guild Creation token. Now they could only establish their guild by regular means, which involved spending gold coins. If she gave their hard-earned gold coins to Jack, it would further delay their progress.
But when she remembered how Warpath had died, she could feel cold sweat running down her forehead. This Storm Wind guy was passive whenever she and Warpath mocked him, but when he acted, he did not hesitate to act viciously. He was the type that did not bark, but would bite. She had no doubt if she tried to refute the bet, the guy might turn to violence.
She had many members around this place to help her, but with how fast Jack had killed Warpath, it would take him even less time to dispose of her. Her members might not reach her before she was wasted. Not to mention there was no guarantee that the group from White Scarfs won't interfere.
With that thought, Queen Magenta reluctantly took out the three gold coins and handed them to him. Jack received the coins with a wide grin.

He was about to walk away, but Jeanny stopped him. She said, "About what we talk about, regarding me and my life here, I will think about it."
Jack nodded. He was glad to have heard it. She was a nice girl, he would hate it if she let herself be confined with people who did not actually respect her. He was just about to go when he thought of something. He immediately turned back to her and said, "I almost forgot, I was about to tell you something when we were in there."
"What is it?"
"If you really like to use a spear, when you could upgrade to your advance class. Pick Knight class instead of Warrior."
She had heard from her guild teammates who did the research in the library, the Fighter class could change into either Knight or Warrior class when they reached level 15. But none of the info about these two classes mentioned anything to do with spear. He asked with a confused look, "why is that?"
"Because when you get stronger and could upgrade to an Elite class, you will find a branch class from there which utilized spear-wielding."
Elite class? Her guild member researchers didn't mention anything about this. "How do you know?" She asked.
"Trust me," Jack said with a wink, then walked away without further explanation.
Selena came to Jeanny after Jack left, she asked her, "what was that all about?"
Jeanny shook her head, "nothing, just some friendly chat."
Queen Magenta was also approaching, when she heard her words, she immediately spat, "Friendly? So you are making friends with our enemy, now? Do you still consider yourself as a member of Wicked Witches? You need to know now that your family was nowhere to be found in this world, you won't worth shit in our guild. If you know what's good for you, you should learn to be more obedient from now on!"
She left after saying her piece. Jeanny stared at her back. She was thankful to her, she had just helped her make up her mind.

"Don't mind her," Selena consoled her. "You know how bad-tempered she is."
"Yes, and I just realized how foolish I am to have let her have her way with me all this time."
Selena was surprised by her reply, but was more surprised to see a resolute expression on her face instead of a sullen expression. She said worriedly, "don't do anything rash."
Jeanny turned to her and said, "I'm not. In fact, it has never been more clear to me. You have been one of the few that are nice to me in the guild. I would like to thank you."
"You…" Selena was out of word when she realized her intention, but Jeanny had walked away before she could talk to her further.
On White Scarfs' side, Silverwing saw Jack walking towards him. Jack extended a hand that hold one gold coin to him. "Your share," he said.
In which Silverwing waved his hand and replied, "keep it. This Guild Creation Token had saved my guild ten gold coins. What is a meager one gold coin? Take it as our payment to you for helping us clear this dungeon."
Jack thought for a bit, then decided to accept it. "All right, I thank you then."
"You will come again if we need further help?" Silverwing asked.
"With sufficient payment, I don't mind," Jack replied.
"Certainly," Silverwing said.
"All right then, I will bid you gentlemen farewell. Give my regards to Bluedaze and Honeycomb. It's a pity they died in that dungeon."
"It's just one level, they can get it back in no time."
Jack nodded. He walked away after, leaving the crowds who in the majority were still staring at him.
In bushes not far from there, Blackjack and a few of his lackeys were in hiding. He had come out safely from the dungeon with Red Death and Scarface, but after hearing that Jack was among the group that had entered the dungeon after them, he had immediately called his friends over to prepare an ambush. When Jack had started provoking Warpath, he had seen it as a golden opportunity. He was going to wait for a perfect chance to deliver a fatal strike while Jack was preoccupied with Warpath.
But after the short exchange that ended up with Warpath's demise, he was glad that he did not reveal himself too soon. He was having a cold sweat when he thought about what he had been planning to do.
"Are we still going to ambush him?" One of his friends in hiding asked.
"Ambush your sister!" He spat. "Do you not see what he did to Warpath? Do you think any of you can hold your ground against him for just half a minute?"
His friends turned silent. He thought to himself, maybe it's not a good idea to entangle with that guy again.
While walking, Jack checked his Hunting Quest statuses. He had completed almost every of his hunting quest except for the Cave Trolls and Ogres. He remembered to have encountered these monsters nearby here, at the place where he had saved Jeanny's team. He decided to go complete these remaining two quests first before returning to the capital.
He spent the remaining afternoon hunting for the two monsters. He found a series of cave entrances near where he first encountered the monsters. Jeanny's team must have stumbled upon one of these caves and aggravated the Cave Trolls inside into attacking them.
Jack didn't bother to bait them to come out, he just went into the caves and slew them all. In each cave, he met several Cave Trolls and one Ogre. After entering four caves, he had met his quota. He collected a few coins, 11 Troll's Tooth, and 2 Ogre's ears which were the monsters' trophy loots.
With the hunting quests completed, he traveled back to the capital.
