Volume 5 Chapter 20: Meadow Of Dreams
"Madison!" Keith shouted as he entered the guild hall. Madison had a bright smile as she greeted,
"Hello, Keith. Are you here for a quest?"
"Mmhmm! Can you help me find a dungeon with many ingredients and is forest-like?" Keith's eyes sparkled as he requested.
"Eh?"
"I want to search for new ingredients for my cart." A big smile was plastered on his face.
Madison's eyes changed when she heard it. She was a regular at his cart. New ingredients? Nothing needed to be said,
"I know three dungeons that fit your criteria." Hearing what he wanted, three came to her mind.
"Really?!" The brightness from his eyes went up tenfold as he got close to Madison.
"Mmhmm. Give me a second." Madison quickly brought out a few papers for Keith.
"These three fit your standard. The first one is more of a giant grove. The second one is a forest. And the third one is similar to the first."
Keith stared at all of them. His eyes were intense as he looked through them. He needed to find one that would fit him well. Noticing his tense expression,
"Keith, I would suggest you go to the third one."
"Hmm?"
Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
"The other two are crowded. If you go there to find ingredients, I doubt there would be any. Also, the third is larger compared to the others." If Keith wanted to search around, the third would be the best choice.
"I will go with the third!"
"Understood." Madison nodded.
"I'm going to catch some delicious ingredients!" Keith declared as he walked out of the guild hall, ready to hunt!
"Your adventurer is so lively." Another receptionist laughed as she watched the interaction.
"He's just excited." Madison shook her head.
"Ah, did he say something about a new item on his menu?" Another receptionist added. The food Keith cooked was incredible. A good number of receptionists went there to eat.
"Should we spread the word?" One of the receptionists questioned.
"We should!"
"Anyways, are you going to go after him, Madison?"
"Eh?"
"Don't "eh," me. Do you know how popular your adventurer is?"
"..." Madison stayed silent. Of course, she knew how famous Keith was. His looks were already eye-catching, but his popularity skyrocketed with his cart.
"I hear he's a noble as well! He has everything!" Keith left one star-struck.
"Better go after him before someone else does." The receptionist teased.
"Tch!"
...
While Keith didn't know what was happening in the guild, he focused on heading to the dungeon. When he arrived, Keith was surprised. The entrance was decked out.
He saw many adventurers staying in the front. The dungeon was called the Meadow Of Dreams. From what Madelyn said, it was meant for F-D rank adventurers.
Keith didn't hesitate as he entered the dungeon. As he walked,
I knew this was different from the others! The dungeon Keith faced with Gabriel was really altered. This one seemed altered as well, but not to the extent of the other one.
Before long, Keith arrived at the end and entered the first floor. His eyes widened, "This is so much bigger than what Madison mentioned!"
Madison telling him that it was large didn't do it justice! This was way larger than what he expected.
"I need to summon her." Keith didn't hesitate to summon Aria.
"Aria, can you help me find any monster around this area?"
"Ho!" The owl nodded as she flew up to the sky. And there seemed to be something near them. Keith took out a bow and arrows.
Gotcha! Keith fired his arrow, sending it across the field. Eh? But that didn't hit the monster.
"Guess I haven't practiced in a while." Keith scratched. Most of the time, he would take them out in one swoop.
"Ho," Aria came back with the monster. She swooped down like the god of death, taking it out.
"Thank you." Keith smiled. But then he noticed, "Wait, are these the only ones on this floor?" The monster was a rush bull.
"Ho."
"Then let's go down!" There was no need to fight with rush bulls! He had too many to count in his storage!
"Ho!" Like that, Aria searched for the door!
