After getting their job request , we started out towards the village outskirts. To be precise, it was the home of a farmer who had recently been killed because of the sudden monster infestation. We had recieved information that many goblins were now infested the place. 

"Well, might as well make it quick." I told the both of them while stifling a yawn. I still hadn't caught up to my loss of sleep because of Galvin waking us up for breakfast at 7.  No doubt, Arianne might be a battle cleric, but I had no intention of leaving my life in the hands of someone I had just met...and one of the copper class.

Arianne and I lagged behind, Arianne was probably tired but I was just plain fucking sleepy. Alice led both of us to the destination, the outermost farmhouse in Murcel village.

We slowly started to activate Stealth as we moved towards the house. Arianne had no suitable skill, so she had to remain in the back and follow us slowly.

I took a closer look at the farmhouse.

"Yep guys, this is the place. There are even sentries here. Lets make this quick." I whispered to the both of them. Alice then took a look at the surroundings and decided the best choice of action and the tactics to be used. She was to handle the sentries with a mix of Stealth and Dual-Blade Mastery while I supported her from the woods. Arrianne was to stand behind me because she was the only healer present.

Alice signalled to commence the plan. I looked over to Arianne and she nodded her head. The plan had commenceed. Alice used Step to melt in to the darkness and started to move forward towards one of the two Level 10 Sentry Goblins. I quitely nocked 2 arrows for my Double Shot aimed at the other sentry . Arianne stood battle ready..

Before long, the first sentry was downed by two iron daggers which had sprouted out of his chest. The second sentry opened his mouth to shout but I was quicker.

*SHLICK*

2 arrows now sprouted from his body. One from his forehead and the other from his chest. Alice, sfter confirming that there were no other sentries present, nodded at me. Silently, the both of us came out of the woods and stalked towards the farmhouse.

I stood 3 meters away from the cottage door and nocked two arrows . Alice nodded at me slinked to the side and pushed the door wide open. However...

"What the fuck?" I frowned. "There's no one inside." I said turning to the both of them.

Alice frowned in displeasure and sat down.

Arianne seemed to close her eyes for a moment and said " That is not possible. This place must have something to it. Sentries wouldn't stand guard to nothing you know."

I agreed to her suggestion.  

"I think it's best that we check the interiors." I told the both of them while shouldering my bow. I released my short sword from its scabbard and held it while we explored the house. Now normally, whenever I played RPGs I would always go for the Beserker class but now that I was finally equipped with a shortsword, i could feel a small shudder course through my body as I missed the familiar weight of the bow in my hands. Although I could deal considerable damage with my sword due to my immense strength, the bow just seemed natural for me. 

We split up on entering the house . Arrianne was to cover the bedrooms while Alice covered the Kitchen and I covered the study and the living rooms. I scanned the entirety of both the rooms and even ransacked the drawers. Hell, I even found something nice... 3 silver. It aint stealing if the owner's dead is it?

We met up after a while by the entrance. 

"Well? FInd anything?" I asked the two of them.

"Yes! I did!" Alice replied with a straight face.

"What did you find? " I asked eagerly. Arianne too had a look of interest on her face.

"This!!" she giggled, taking out a potato.

I sighed in exasperation and took the potato from her. Arianne just looked away.

I rubbed the dirty potato all over her face smearing it, much to her exasperation. I looked at our third member and asked, "Well? Judging from your face, I guess you didnt find anything either huh"

She just gave me a wry smile.

Out of exasperation, I threw the potato at the nearest vase. The vase slightly tilted and a low groaning sound was heard. The bookshelf had slid to the side, exposing a staircase that led to a lower floor. 

"Whoa" I gasped. The two girls just looked at me with incredulous expressions.

"Just one of the perks of being as charismatic as me" I smirked. Alice just rolled her eyes and Arianne giggled. She was quite beautiful with her red hair let down .  I saw her chest heaving as she giggled and I watched as the melons bounced with a satisfied expression on my face. Arianne had obviously caught my gaze and she averted her gaze with a beet red face.

Suddenly a notification appeared before us.

"Sweet" Alice muttered and Arianne seconded her.

"Well. It's this or nothing" I smirked as I headed down the stairs.
