Following behind Masters to what Masters had called the barracks to meet who he would be working with on his first few missions. Lake had been kind of mad at first but after a few minutes he had already gotten used to the idea of working with others. Of course he had mainly gotten over it because Masters had told him he wasn't responsible for his teammates' lives.
If they were to die on one of their missions he wasn't going to be punished or anything so the main downside of being with people who were weaker than him was gone. He still hoped they wouldn't be sharing the money evenly though because there was no way that would be fair to him.
"Ok it's in here, you'll be part of team eight so go in and find them." After Masters said this he left so Lake guessed he would be responsible for his own introduction. This wasn't really a problem because he was an adult but he had just kind of expected Masters to break the ice for him.
Walking inside Lake saw there wasn't anything telling him which team was the eighth so he just asked the first person he could. "Which team is the eighth?" The lady pointed to the back corner where a group of four were talking while sitting on a bunk bed. Thanking the lady, Lake walked over and went to introduce himself only to be cut off by the biggest of the four.
"Are you our new member? That was pretty fast. Master said it might be a while before he was able to find someone to replace Jeppy." Lake took the opportunity that had been given to him and just nodded. He could tell with just this one sentence he wasn't going to need to do anything other than respond to whatever they said to him.
"Well I'm Peter and this is Grendia, Julie, and Freed." Lake could tell he was meant to say his name here so he did. "My name's Lake. Nice to meet you." As Lake was saying this he was doing his best to remember these fours names because he had always had a hard time remembering peoples names who he didn't care about in any way.
Seeing the robed person holding out something in their hand for them to take Lake just wanted for Peter to go and get it. He didn't see why he would take the risk of approaching such an untrustworthy figure if he knew someone like Peter probably wouldn't even think about it before they grabbed it.
After a few seconds Lake saw Peter do exactly what he had just said he would and grab onto the paper. As soon as Peter had it the person in the robe jumped out the window and almost out of habit Lake braced himself for an explosion but it never came and all that really happened was Peter started to read what was on the paper.
"Three days, we have three days to find whatever the Demon Worshipers are here for or something bad is going to happen." After Peter said this he handed the paper to the person he was closest to who just happened to be Lake and he was able to read it for himself. "That's literally all it says."
Lake couldn't believe how bad this information was and handed it down to the next person in line who was Grendia so she could read it. "It's good we finally know how much longer this is going to go on for. I've been getting tired of running up and down the city's stairs." Lake guessed that was true but he wanted to know how they were supposed to find the people they were going to kill with info like this.
"What's the rest of the mission? I mean do we just go back now?" Peter started to nod and said. "Yeah we need to deliver this to Master so he can start to form a plan. With a deadline we're going to need a more focused effort to find anything before whatever's going to happen happens."
Lake nodded and followed Peter and the others out of the building and pulled the first paper out of his pocket to read since he hadn't had the chance earlier. After he read it, Lake realized their original mission had been assumed to be a kill mission because Masters hadn't known what the spy was going to give them.
He wasn't worried about wasting his time though or if they were even going to get paid for this because it sounded like he had gotten here at the right time and it was about to get a lot more bloody in the coming days and with the increased pressure he was sure he would be given a good mission worth a lot of money as soon as Masters realized just how much of a waste it was to stick him in a group like this and give him such small tasks.
Lake had also realized he might be able to find the thieves guild here in this city and make more money by doing what he was meant to. Back in the capital the Thieves guild had pretty much disappeared because all the thieves in the city had run to get away from the war but here he was sure they would still be active.
