Rise of the Blood Sovereign-Chapter 61 Adam Regains Consciousness

61 Adam Regains Consciousness Upon reaching the city, Lyle and the still unconscious Adam were taken to the adventurer guild. The guild gave them a room free of charge and Lyle was told to stay put before they called him up.

He needed to give a statement to the leader of the branch about what was happening.

Even though the adventurers all knew of what was going on, he was needed in order for the branch leader to ask for further reinforcements.

The branch only had about 10 Silver Knights present at the moment.

There were no independent adventurer teams with Silver Knights leading them currently and simply waiting around and hoping for the best was not feasible. The guild would ask for more people in order to combat any monsters that escaped, and the branch leader himself would probably need to act if a minotaur was to once again leave the dungeon.

The city lord had acted last time, but that was mostly because nobody knew just where the monster had come from, since they all now knew that it was from the dungeon, it fell to the adventurer guild to take care of it.

There were currently multiple Golden Knights present inside the city.

The branch leader, the city lord, and his deputy, and there were 2 more that were from the military.

They didn't fear being attacked by Golden Core monsters since the city lord himself could deal with multiple opponents at the same time, but if the dungeon was to suddenly evolve and start spawning more Golden Core monsters, then things would change.

The branch leader would be unable to deal with multiple minotaurs at the same time and would need help, in order to combat this, he was planning on asking the main branch inside the empire to send 2 more Golden Knights to help him out.

Even the other dungeon which only had Silver Core monsters could perhaps evolve and start making Golden Core monsters, making things much more complicated and dangerous.

Adam was still asleep, his injuries had mostly been healed thanks to the Silver Knight healer.

He had exhausted himself and would need some time to fully rest before being able to fight once again. Lyle and Adam would be unable to hunt any more monsters today, but they had at least leveled up twice, which was no small feat.

With the dungeons changing, Lyle was even more interested in staying inside the city for a bit.

He could use the dungeons changing as an excuse for the headquarters and tell them that he was gathering info on how they were changing and what kind of repercussions appeared.

For that, he would later need to go to the small branch of the organization that could be found in Linston. Even Olswan had a branch, but since Lyle's mission there was finished, he didn't go there as his mission stated that he should immediately come back after assassinating the duke.

With the branch being in Olswan, they had probably sent a message to the headquarters right away and his mission had been put as completed.

After waiting for about 30 mins, the same receptionist that had given Lyle and Adam their badges appeared in front of the door and knocked.

"The branch leader is expecting you, I shall take you to him now if you are available." The girl spoke from outside the door, not knowing who was currently staying in it.

Upon opening the door, Lyle glanced at the girl whose eyes slightly widened upon seeing him.

'It's him?!' The girl thought in her head before smiling at Lyle and bowing slightly.

"Respected sir, please follow me."

"Yes, thank you." Lyle slightly bowed his head at the girl before following her to the next floor.

Upon reaching the end, the girl collected herself and knocked on the door of the branch leader.

"Sir, I have brought your guest."

"Good, you may leave now, Katherine." A voice from inside the office said as Katherine bowed to the door before turning around.

"You may enter." The voice once again said while Katherine slightly bowed to Lyle before leaving and letting him enter alone.

Upon opening the door and coming into the office, Lyle was able to see the wide back of a middle-aged man who was staring out of his window.

"Please do take a seat." The man said as Lyle nodded at him before sitting down. The man then turned before sitting down in his leather chair and looking at Lyle.

"My name is Karlington, I am the leader of this branch," Karlington said as Lyle nodded at him before speaking.

"Reginold Autumn, nice to make your acquaintance," Lyle said as he shook Karlington's hand.

"So, mister Reginold, it seems you have come across quite a problem in the dungeon," Karlington said to Lyle who smiled wryly.

"Well, I guess you could say so," Lyle said with a slight smile on his face before telling the branch leader the same thing he had told the group of adventurers.

Karlington simply listened to Lyle and occasionally nodded to him. Not even once did he interrupt him in order to ask anything or to question the validity of his statement.

"Alright, the statement has been recorded, thank you for your cooperation, you and your friend can stay here until he recovers, so you don't need to worry about getting back to your inn," Karlington told Lyle who nodded at him before gracefully bowing and leaving the office.

Upon Lyle's exit, Karlington sighed before looking at the crystal in his hand. The crystal was what was used to record statements as it not only recorded sounds but images as well.

Lyle's whole statement was recorded on it, as was his image. Karlington simply stood up before opening a small secret compartment inside the wall of his office. He then simply put the crystal inside the compartment and in a flash of light, the crystal was gone.

The compartment was actually a teleportation device that the adventurers guild and other powerful organizations in the world used. There existed large ones that could teleport whole groups of people, but this one was used specifically for Karlington to give reports to the main branch, or to contact them when something major happened.

He had put a small badge alongside the crystal, the badge signified that this was an emergency and not a report.

It would only take the main branch a couple of minutes to look at the statement and make a decision about what actions they should take.

He had also sent them a letter that informed them of what was happening in Linston, and was certain that his request to get 2 Golden Knights would be denied.

That was all fine, he had known that to get 2 Golden Knights as reinforcements would be neigh impossible.

The adventurers guild had many places to take care of, the empire was currently in chaos, and the war had suddenly stopped thanks to the system, but monsters had erupted everywhere.

The dungeons were evolving and had started spitting out monsters, the monsters that roamed the world had gotten stronger thanks to the large influx of mana, while most people, even Golden Knights, had received a backlash from the high amount of mana that had suddenly appeared.

Even Titled Knights and higher were not spared from the backlash, but there was a bright side, and that was that their powers would rise much faster after they got used to everything.

The adventurers guild had to focus on more things, and one city where there existed a chance of Golden Core monsters coming out was simply not worth sending 2 Golden Knights, Karlington presumed that they would either get 1 Golden Knight or 10+ Silver Knights as reinforcements.

They also had the Enders, but they would only show themselves if the branch itself was in great danger.

There was also the option of deploying them if the city was in danger, but Karlington highly doubted that something like that would happen, especially since the lord of the city was a powerhouse that was considered to be the most powerful Golden Knight in the empire, and the surrounding area, currently had.

If the Enders were to show themselves, that would mean that they would then soon have to leave and be switched out by other Enders in order to keep their identity a secret.

Karlington simply sat in his chair and stared outside as he awaited the answer from the main branch of the empire.

As for Lyle, he was escorted back by one of the guards. Upon entering the room, he smiled as Adam had woken up and was currently eating some food that had been delivered to them.

"Ah, sir, I'm glad to see that you are safe!" Adam said the food that was in his mouth getting spat out.

"Yeah, it's good to see that you are fine as well, you feel any pain?"

"Well, my arms hurt a bit, and one of my legs, but I don't think they're broken or anything, just a bit sore."

"That's because of the healing, your broken bones have been mended, but you still need to wait a day for your body to fully heal up, that's only because of who and what you are, otherwise it would take multiple days," Lyle said before sitting down and taking a tray of food that had been delivered for him.

"I see, so I broke my arms?"

"You broke them, and one leg, and a couple of bones inside your body, you tore some muscles, and god knows what else," Lyle said with a sigh before looking at him.

"But, good job, you saved both our asses back there."

Upon hearing Lyle's words, Adam stopped for a minute before a wide smile blossomed on his face. 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭．𝑛𝘦𝘵

"Yes sir, thank you!"
