Everyone's become an adventurer, so who's going to put in the effort themselves?

Lynn did not answer, but looked up at Luke and then glanced at the several adventurers who were silently approaching.

Upon seeing this, Lynn immediately realized that he had been targeted.

The Luke in front of him was clearly a novice adventurer, just like him.

No novice would do something like publicly exposing his identity, nor would they be in a hurry to prove that they were truly sent by Jacken.

If you're going to do something like this, you should at least do it secretly and find a secluded place, right?

"You mean you accepted the mission issued by Jacken Knightworth?"

Lynn glanced at Luke with a hint of pity, and after Luke nodded, he pointed to the counter lady behind him and said:

"If you're referring to that mission, unfortunately, it has already been completed."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Luke immediately turned his head to look at Ramie, who was standing to the side.

In his view, being "completed" meant that Lynn had been found and the order had been placed!

Besides him, the most likely person to complete the task is Ramie, the third party.

Am I still too late?

Luke was stunned for a moment, then his face turned pale, a result of the sadness that came from watching 30 fiat currency slip through his fingers.

At that moment, upon hearing Lynn say that the mission was complete, several adventurers who were approaching from the next room immediately stopped in their tracks.

Some of them even went directly to the bar and asked the cashier:

"Was the search mission completed? The one with the Stigmata number 1608?"

Upon hearing this, the counter staff glanced somewhat awkwardly at Ramie, who had already taken out her badge. After confirming that the badge was indeed correct, she nodded and said:

"Task number 1608 has indeed been completed by this gentleman and is now in the settlement process."

"Did you finish?" The adventurer clicked his tongue upon seeing this, turned and left, muttering under his breath, "Another lost job!"

Immediately, the crowd that had gathered around began to turn around, with occasional complaints such as "You're wasting my time" and "Isn't the guild quest update too slow?"

At this moment, Lynn glanced at the departing adventurers, nodded slightly, then turned to Luke, who was still standing there in a daze, and said:

"As you heard, unfortunately, the mission is complete."

"This isn't right!"

Luke's face flushed, and he pointed somewhat anxiously at the counter lady, saying:

"She just said 'sir,' right?"

Lynn raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, but glanced at Luke with surprise:

"You're very perceptive. So, what's the difference?"

“Of course it’s different!” Luke raised his voice. “Doesn’t this mean that you completed the task, not this elf lady next to you?”

Ramy blinked, glanced at Lynn, and tugged at Lynn's sleeve, signaling him not to get into a fight with Luke, as it would set a bad example.

Noticing Ramy's subtle movement, Lynn glanced at her sideways, met her gaze, and then turned to Luke, saying:

"Generally speaking, the task was completed by the two of us. Is there a problem with that?"

Before Luke could answer, Lynn added:

"That's 30! I, the person involved, am also envious, and then I want to split this money with the person who found me. Is there anything wrong with that?"

Lynn believed he had given a fairly reasonable answer.

However, after glancing at him, Luke nodded and said:

"Have!!"

"And there's a big problem!!"

Luke then said without any politeness:

"Even if you've reached an agreement, how did you complete the task if the employer isn't there?"

Lynn gave Luke a strange look: "Can't we have the identity badge he granted us?"

"Isn't that counterfeiting?!"

Luke raised his voice a notch and bluntly accused:

"This is fraud!!"

"Posting tasks yourself and then completing them yourself—what's the difference between that and lying?"

"Besides, who knows if your identity badges were stolen?"

Lynn lowered her eyes upon hearing this, squinting at Luke:

"Dude, I understand you're upset because the mission failed, which is why you're so agitated, but if you keep nagging like this, it's not a good idea."

"This is fraud!!"

Luke's face flushed red, his neck stiffened, and he pointed at Lynn's chest, saying:

I'm going to report you!

"You have tarnished the profession of adventurer!!"

Huh? To tarnish the profession of adventurer? Me? Lynn was stunned for a moment, not understanding Luke's logic.

At this moment, Luke spoke directly to the receptionist.

"I want to file a formal complaint against these two people for posting fraudulent tasks and exaggerating the reward amounts!!"

"This..." The counter lady panicked. She had just confirmed that the mission was completed. If Luke exploded like this, wouldn't he take her inside as well?

At this moment, Luke approached the counter, took a picture, and said:

"Miss teller, I told you I'm filing a complaint under my real name, why haven't you processed it yet?"

"I need to inform my supervisor."

The clerk hurriedly prepared to press the emergency notification button under the table, but before she could press it, she spotted Mira walking in from the exit on the side of the counter.

Upon seeing Mira, the receptionist immediately showed a relieved expression and pointed to Luke and Lynn:

"Manager, this adventurer wants to report this fake quest posting."

"Ok, I know."

Mira nodded slightly, then looked at Luke across the counter:

"You want to report him for falsely posting tasks?"

“Yes!” Luke nodded.

"Is it mission number 1608?"

"That's right!!"

Luke turned his head and looked at Lynn with a hint of pity in his eyes.

He could almost see Lynn being punished by the guild.

However, after hearing Luke's two confirmations, Mira simply nodded, then calmly said:

"Okay, I understand. The mission is fine. You can go back now."

"Huh?" Luke was stunned.

Before Luke could react, Mira glanced at Lynn and said irritably:

"Don't play such boring games next time. Just cancel the task and you won't have to pay any processing fees."

"...Okay, I'll be more careful next time."

Lynn scratched his head. Little did he know that he would encounter a hothead like Luke when trying to inherit Jacken's fortune!

At this moment, Luke looked at Mira, then at Lynn, and suddenly realized:

"I see, so you're all in cahoots!"

In an instant, Luke was furious:

"This is a blatant cover-up!"

"The guild and adventurers have teamed up to scam us newbies!!"

"This is not fair!"

As Luke spoke, he raised his hand, slammed the rag in his hand to the ground, and roared:

"I'm going to complain to the city lord's mansion!!"

Just then, a pretty girl with short, pink hair peeked over beside Lynn and asked curiously:

"Hmm, who's going to sue my family?"

Luke was stunned for a moment, staring at the suddenly appearing Sia with disbelief, as if he recognized her.

At this moment, Sia glanced at Lynn, then at Ramie beside him, and revealed a teasing smile:

"Oh my, isn't this little Lynn? Did you bring your girlfriend to visit Mira?"

Luke fell silent upon hearing this.

He suddenly felt that the sky in Mona City was a little too dark!

How can it be so dark in broad daylight that you can't see your hand in front of your face?

Chapter 35 Lynn: I'm still too kind!

"Lord Shia."

Hearing her girlfriend's words, Ramy glared at Sia with some annoyance:

Please don't say things that could be misunderstood.

"This identity can only be used with the consent of Lynn and Grandmother."

"Huh? That old woman hasn't agreed yet? I thought she had agreed, which is why she asked you to bring Lynn over."

Sia looked at Ramie in surprise, tilting her head and asking in confusion:

"That's strange. Given her personality, didn't she secretly observe Lynn when we were on Purple Flower Road? I clearly sensed her gaze."

Lynn was taken aback when he heard this.

What do you mean?

So, when he was flirting with Ramy and deliberately undressing in front of the snow fairy, Ramy's grandmother was actually watching?

Damn, you're spying on my body, aren't you?

At least give me some money!

Isn't this just getting something for nothing?

"Grandma was watching?" Ramie asked, looking completely bewildered. "How could she? Doesn't Grandma usually hate people who spy on others?"

At this moment, Mira suddenly let out a cold laugh:

"She hates being spied on, not that she hates being a spied person herself."

It seems that Mira is quite familiar with Ramy's grandmother.

At least Lynn felt that the relationship between the two seemed 'good'?

However, while Lynn thought Mira and Ramy's grandmother had a good relationship, Luke looked at the four people in front of him who were acting as if no one else was around, his expression as stiff as a piece of pork that had been frozen for three days.

These people are so affectionate; they're clearly family, aren't they?

Will I be able to get home safely?

At this point, Luke was starting to worry about whether Lynn would retaliate against him.

If the Adventurers' Guild's manager and Mona City Lord's woman were to sabotage him, he'd probably be sleeping with one eye open all night.

Otherwise, he would probably have been stabbed six times the next day and his death would have been ruled a suicide, right?
