Chapter 344: Best And Brightest
Once he was back outside he quickly left the location of the Thieves guild heading back towards the fighters guild. He knew they wouldn't be able to help him get the gold he had made with them previously because they had never seen him before but this couldn't stop him from getting a new badge and taking new jobs if they had any lucrative jobs.
Then in the future he could go back to the guild that he had worked for in the past and ask them to help him claim the gold he had there with them and add it to his new account. He was sure they would remember him because he had finished a lot of jobs in around two days. Something like that left a big impression and the clerk he had worked with should remember him even though it had been a couple of weeks.
As he walked into the Fighters guild he noticed there were a lot less people inside and when he took a look at the jobs listed he realized this city didn't seem to have much of a problem with bandits. Seeing this he couldn't help but think of the thieves who just tried to rob him and wonder if there was some reason they didn't have jobs dealing with the Thieves in town.
If the Guilds had a treaty or something he guessed trying to make money here by working for the Fighters Guild was a real waste of time. Walking back outside he looked over at the Adventurers Guild and wondered if it was worth becoming a member there if they had better paying jobs. The source of this content is N0veII_bIn
Deciding it was worth going in to at least look since there wasn't a line he entered inside and moved towards the job wall. He didn't have to get close to see the wall was almost completely empty of jobs. He wanted to see what the few there were paid before he left though so he got close enough to read the small writing.
Seeing all the missions were long term jobs that didn't really pay all that much, Lake decided that the Earth Domain seemed too peaceful to make any money in legit ways and decided to go out to see if he could steal more stuff. He had a reason to go back since he had finally been able to remember some of the other items he had touched inside the castle and not selling them would be wasteful.

"Sir mayor it seems the only things they weren't able to get to were the ones inside your office vault and the things that had been hidden by Hampton in his lab." After hearing the guards report the mayor asked a question that had been bothering him since he saw things around the castle were missing. "Was anywhere else in town robbed?"
He really didn't care but he figured it was their only option left to find evidence if Hampton was unable to find anything that could point them to whoever did this. "Yes sir, I brought the report that was filed yesterday by one of the other guards." Receiving the report the mayor quickly read through it and said. "It says nothing was taken but the thief escaped before they were brought to the dungeon."
"But they saved them before they actually went into the dungeon so it was just showing them what could happen before they took them on a team job which was robbing the keep to show them how much safer it was to work as a group."
"Correct. Now they'll train the new guy on how to use their skill and give them a small portion of the money they make while doing this." He was about to ask Hampton if he thought it was even worth trying to find what had been taken when the guard finally reentered the room. They were alone though so it was obvious they had been unable to find the one who had written the report.
"What is the problem? Where is he?"
"Sorry sir but he didn't come to work today. I had someone sent to see if he is at home or if he's actually missing. If he's gone I'll make sure we find him and charge him for the theft, don't worry sir. I'll get everything back."
He could tell the guard was worried they would all lose their jobs if it turned out to be one of their own who had done this but he didn't think that was the case so he said. "Don't worry about any of that and just bring me his file so I can see how he did on the job."
"Right away sir." As soon as the man left he looked at Hampton who had stayed quiet during that and asked. "Do you think it was the guard?" Getting a quick response when Hampton shook his head no he said. "I don't either. What do you think we should do? Should we just go on like it never happened or send someone after them?"
"I don't think we should try to recover anything that was taken. They left us the gold we need to continue our task and that's all that matters. We should go after them though."
"Why would we go after them if we don't want the things they took?" After asking this he was able to find the answer himself as soon as he finally started to think about what this town had been suffering from for a long time. "Are you saying we should try to hire them?"
"Yes it's been three years with no progress and we know for a fact whatever is causing the growth is inside the door. With their skills we'll be able to get through even without the key and finally end this curse."
He could tell there was no reason to disagree with Hampton on this because they had long run out of ideas on how to get inside the underground door. "I'll leave this up to you then. Take whatever gold you need to find and hire them to get us inside." Right after he said this the guard returned again with the file on the missing guard. "Thank you, you can go now."
After the guard left he read the file and was relieved that the guard that was missing wasn't one of their best and brightest because it meant not only had they not lost anything if they were dead because the man was on the verge of being fired anyway they were probably not the type that could pull something like this off.
