Chapter 113 – Chapter 113 Economic Crisis
Cedric thought for a moment.
The head of the adventurer’s guild was not a small position.
As Jason said, if he had a cause, he was also a position where he could give orders to all adventurers operating in the capital.
Some countries on the continent started out as adventurers’ guilds.
It is possible to overthrow a small country if low, intermediate, and high-level adventurers join forces.
Now, Jason is asking for such a position.
This was by no means an easy decision.
“Can I go back to the guild for a while, think about it, and come back?”
It was clear to Jason that Cedric was shaking.
And at that time, if you give time to think about something else, it was a person’s mind that changes.
Jason didn’t give Cedric time to do that.
“Will I have time for that?”
“What else do you mean by that?”
“There is not even a single adventurer’s guild in the capital of the Palmo Empire. If necessary, it is possible to make such a contract with other adventurer guilds.”
“But we are the largest and strongest adventurers’ guild in the Palmo Empire.”
“If you can’t have 100, having 90 isn’t bad either.”
Jason also applied the pressure in other ways.
“Don’t think that the current adventurer guild’s economic crisis will end in a one-shot. Are you already feeling it in your body? Superhumans are dying of old age one by one. Everyone is scrambling to fill that vacant seat. It’s like some kind of mass madness. In such a situation, the price of the Mage Tower will gradually increase. I’d say it’s futile if you have faith that things will get better.”
And Jason suddenly said something else.
“Adventurers go to gambling places a lot. Does the guild leader gamble too?”
“I went there a few times when I was young.”
“You must have seen people who failed and couldn’t get away from gambling. People whose circumstances are not good, but who eat their flesh in the hope of a good luck.”
Cedric felt like he had become that person.
“And if I become the guild leader, nothing bad will happen. Because 7 Mage Towers will support the Capital Adventurers Guild. Come to think of it, Cedric Guild Leader is very lucky. He met me like this before other guild leaders.”
In the end, Cedric had no choice but to bow his head to Jason.
**
Cedric signed a temporary contract with Jason and returned to the adventurer’s guild.
He summoned the guild officials.
As the executives entered the conference room, I kept thinking about what Jason had said.
Clearly, Cedric himself felt what Jason said.
It was felt that times were changing.
The generation of supermen was changing.
The old superhumans died one by one, and the high-level adventurers gave off an atmosphere that seemed to explode at any moment.
Most will explode and die, and those who survive will become superhuman.
Cedric remembered what he had been doing at times like this in the past.
That was at least 50 years ago.
At that time, Cedric was a child of an adventurer family and was training without knowing anything.
I didn’t care at all how the world was going.
‘But Jason, that young bastard, already knows what the world is going on?!’
As the thought reached that point, Cedric became even more frightened.
The executives gathered and asked questions.
“Guild leader. How did your meeting with Jason go?”
“He was a scary guy. Intermediate thieves, who are super high, oppress me while not using my father’s halo at all. This is the first time I have ever seen such a strong, genius, and scary child.”
The officials couldn’t believe it.
The adventurer’s guild leader was a job where he met many people.
You must have seen a lot of geniuses who fly and long.
However, Cedric only said that the future was promising for any genius, but he did not express it as scary.
Cedric met with Jason and he recounted what kind of conversation he had.
The executives all felt the same way.
If any of them were there, they would have had no choice but to sign a temporary contract like Cedric did.
Cedric said.
“Bring all the guild materials from 50 years ago. I need to find out what happened at that time.”
**
The adventurers’ economy was getting worse.
Jason had predicted and prepared for this situation in advance.
Besides, he was instigating this situation even more by owning 7 mage towers.
Originally, the Mage Tower, which should have produced magic consumables for adventurers, only produced love gels and hand pushes.
As much as that, there was a vacuum in magic consumables across the empire, which further fueled the economic crisis.
The imperial family was initially concerned about Jason’s actions and suggested producing magic consumables in his magic towers.
But Jason adamantly refused.
And if he tried to infringe on the rights of the mage tower in the imperial family, he would break the lease contract of the black mage tower that was being leased to the imperial family.
He said he would pay any penalty.
Then the emperor had no choice but to withdraw.
Hwangga had a confrontation with Jason in the past and was tired of various things.
Now was not the time to focus on other things to make even one of the princes and princesses superhuman.
In addition, since the imperial family received their own magic consumables from the Black Mage Tower, they only worried about the situation of other adventurers in words.
The other Mage Towers of the Empire tolerated Jason’s actions.
As the supply of magic consumables became scarce and prices rose, only the Mage Tower benefited.
Rather, the owners of the Mage Tower were showing good feelings toward Jason when they had meetings.
And even in this situation, the advanced adventurers did not stop entering the dungeon.
They were blinded by the desire to become a superman faster than anyone else and to have the foundation that the superman who died of old had.
Now, adventurer guilds across the empire ran to Jason, the only one who could afford to work.
And Jason didn’t even meet such a guild leader in person.
Spia had to deal with those people in place of Jason.
Spear came to Jason tired after meeting one of the adventurer’s guild leaders in a provincial town.
“Isn’t everything fine?”
“Nothing special. But what did the guild leader say so much about? It doesn’t offer anything good. They just ask for help from fellow adventurers.”
Jason comforted Spia.
I had subordinates in case something like this was tiring, but I had to understand that the subordinates were tired.
“All guild leaders are people. I can’t help it. By the way, how’s the contract with the Capital Adventurer’s Guild going?”
“I’m still counting.”
1.5 times the price. Later, push Jason to the adventurer’s guild.
This was what Jason and Cedric agreed to.
However, it was a contract between the 7 Mage Towers and the Capital Adventurers Guild.
It couldn’t have ended that easily.
What magic potions and where to produce, transport, and store them.
There were not just one or two things that the subordinates had to fine-tune.
“I do it in moderation.”
“Good enough? Then what if I get hated by the young master later?”
Spear said with a smile.
She was definitely Jason’s woman, and she feared being hated by him more than being scolded for doing a sloppy job.
Jason stroked her butt.
And Spia hugged Jason in a friendly way and said.
“At 15. What would it be like to become such a popular person?”
“What?”
“The title of the youngest son of the Wolf family is no longer enough to describe the young boy. The owner of a kissing room franchise across the empire. Owner of the 7 Magic Towers. The owner of Love Gel and Hand Push. All of the female slaves in training in the Dwarf Dungeon are loyal to the Master. Now, even the Capital Adventurer’s Guild.”
Jason said while rubbing Spear’s inner thigh.
“I just want to live.”
“Are you barely able to live?”
“Spia knows that too. If you have no strength in this world, you will eventually be eaten by someone stronger.”
And while Spear was thinking, she said.
“I… I want to have the young boy. It doesn’t matter if it’s an illegitimate child who doesn’t follow Wolf’s surname.”
Jason looked into Spear’s eyes.
She was sincere
And Jason, too, was anticipating that this day would come someday.
He certainly won the hearts of his entourage.
It was women’s love that weighed more than men’s loyalty.
And those women would instinctively want Jason’s child.
Jason comforted Spia.
“You know I’m still very busy, right? I know it’s dangerous too. But wait a minute. When the day comes when everything is done. I will make a baby with Spia.”
It was okay for Jason to have a child with Spear as well.
She was a meticulous and lovely woman.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
