Micky looked over the quests he had. For once the quests were actually marked. Now he had to go out to the marked area and work his way from there. Apparently the clans had been screwing over the town for some time now. So the guild knew exactly where the bosses where going to be.

Micky didn’t like it, but he understood it. It was all kinds of messed up. But luckily not all clans were assholes. But the ones in charge of these missions had botched it up for the rest of them. Funnily enough when the guild took the quests down the clans in charge of them through a hissy fit. Afterall there were only two reasons why they could be taken down. Obviously somebody either took the quest from them or killed their monster.

What actually happened was that the guild took it down from public questing so they could send real adventurers out there. Now It was Micky and Prin’s job to clean up the clan’s mess. These jobs had been sitting around waiting for somebody responsible to come by and be assigned. So the guild jumped at the chance to use them for Micky’s teams test. Afterall the first one was a muck monster, and the second was a coon gang.

The first one isn’t very desirable, but they did reproduce as fast as a rain storm. So they were very desirable for the clans to monopolize. The second one would steal loot, and literal shit. They were also called trash bandits, and the clans didn’t mind sending their disciples in to search through the trash to find goodies.

Luckily, Micky had Squishy for both. Nothing like a slime bath to leave you feeling clean and fresh. Even Prin had started getting into it. She at least left he laundry to get cleaned by squishy if she couldn’t take a slime bath, or she just got out of a regular one.

[The Muck Monster] was easy to spot after you knew what you were looking for. Apparently it had become an [Area Boss] of the forest. This was a bad thing and the reason that these monsters were regularly culled. So it was no surprise that the guild was pissed. Micky wouldn’t have been suprised if those clanners were kicked out of the guild. After all, an [Area Boss] can start a mini-wave as it claims the area around it. It can be said to be the stepping stone of all forest monsters.

Of course Micky knew for a fact that despite the fact he would have been kicked out if he was in the same situation, the clanners that messed up this bad had not. But it didn’t matter now. Since now it was Micky’s mess to clean up.

Well technically Prin’s, and she wasn’t happy about it. So Micky [Accelerat]ed her and was done with his job. Muck monsters just needed to be smashed to oblivion. They were more dangerous then slimes in that they had no cores, but also a lot less dangerous. They were slow and defensive compared to a slimes fast, and still defensive but slightly less so. Micky decided to send Squishy smashing into the little ones while Prin took care of the big one. He didn’t think she would be defeated by them but she would still be drowned in a muckslide if they all gang pressed her.

From then on it was just a repetitive smash, and well, that was it. They were to slow for Prin to even bother dodging. She just attacked and countered. If there was an attack she would move out of the way while attacking. And if there wasn’t, she just kept attacking. So just attack and counter. The only time it got even remotely dangerous was when they shot out muck shots. But they were only dangerous to Micky. Prin laughed when Micky got shot in the face with one.

The raccoons were much more annoying. They, being notorious bandits in the area, knew that the group was arriving right away. And they immediately started to steal stuff. Micky ended up completely naked by the time they arrived at the other [Area Boss]’s location. Prin was much better, but she still had a few things stolen. Namely they had somehow stolen her bra among other things. Neither of them knew how they did it, but they were impressed non the less.

Luckily Micky still had his staff and Prin still had her sword, though all her sidearms had been stolen. Micky noticed the sidearms sticking out of a trash pile they had been stuck in and his clothes laying across another. He decided to fight naked until he could get Squishy to properly clean them.

Micky used his [Mass Targeted][Enrage]/[Charm] combo to make the coons fight amongst themselves. This didn’t actually take much prodding on his part and the boss didn’t even have a control ability. Though he did have a fear aura for his own species. This prevented other coons from attacking him.

Micky fended off the raccoons with Squishy while Prin charged straight for the boss. Micky was actually amazed at the END of these creatures because Prin’s sword didn’t cut straight through them, it smashed them instead. So Prin might take some time with the boss.

Instead Micky focused on taking out the little ones so that he could send in Squishy to help out. It didn’t take long, and yet it took quite some time. It turned out that they had a very low STM stat even though their VIT was high, with all that END. So when they got tired with each other Micky and Squishy just smashed their skulls in.

Prin was still fighting the rolly polly boss. He couldn’t leave being an [Area Boss] luckily. Some of his minions had quickly abandoned ship and run off into th forest, their was nothing Micky or Prin could do, it was the type of [Mob].

Micky sent in Squishy and between the two the boss’s own STM was quickly drained. Then he too was beaten to a pulp like his minions. From there Micky had Squishy loot. She was only too happy to being hungry from the fight. Prin got her sidearms back and began skinning the raccoons. Their hides would be decent.

From the loot Micky was pleased to find some enchanted gear. The silvers would do well in his coffers. They left the meat to the monsters and left with what they had.

The next day when Micky woke up he found a staring Prin in his room. Micky quickly covered up but realized she wasn’t going to attack him shortly after.

“What the heck was that for?” Micky demanded.

“Finaly ready to go to the guild?” Said Prin.

“You got up early just for that?!” Micky stared at Prin. Then he really looked at her and discovered that she had dark… Darker circles under her eyes. At first he didn’t notice because of her green complexion. But after a close look he could see the new dark circles there.

“Did you stay up all night just so you could go with me to the guild?” Micky Demanded. Prin looked away slightly ashamed.

“Go to bed.” Micky stated.

“But!” Prin protested.

“No, go to bed. You're in no shape to fight. We aren’t desperate here. So we will always be in top shape before we go out to fight. Even I know that much. Before you object we can take one of the shit missions, and guess who’s going to be shoveling the shit this time.” Said Micky.

And so the rest of the week went. Prin would get up in the morning even though she grumbled about it and the [Oath] guilt tripping her into changing her lifestyle. Micky gave her the bear to sleep with since he didn’t need it to trigger the trap anymore. Consequently she named it trap, and it was a boy even though she put a dress on it.

Finally the Adventurer’s Class came around. Micky was excited, he would finally get some real training.
