24 - Smith to Inn

"Jeez, I don't know how you still have the fucking will to build this thing when your old man couldn't build this thing for thirty years. And he was considered a genius of his time."

Lupin put down his power drill and turn to face Grimnarl. "Well, we do have the old man's notes, every single page of them," Lupin said, holding up a thick journal. "So, we have the instructions to build this thing. The only problem is how to build the energy source for this thing."

Grimnarl nod. "That is true. Anon does take notes of every detail that he does." He took off his dirty gloves and observe their fail attempt that was on a table.

The fail attempt seems to be a power suit, it was slim, its helmet looks like that of a knight with wolf traits, its entire was covered with metal plating and in the center of its chest was a small orb that was grey.

"What a shame though, according to what Anon had written in his journal, this power suit can make normal everyday citizens to be as strong as a sliver or even gold ranks without any training!" Grimnarl said, excitedly. "Even if a gold rank or platinum to wear this suit. It would be helpful against the rising amount of demonic junks that been making more and more corrupted to appears."

The blacksmith then sighs. "Too bad it won't work without the energy source, so it's just a pile of scrap metals right now. Seriously, just what is this 'Gnosis?' The damn journal doesn't detail where to find it or how to create it."

"Yeah...It's so annoying, the old man detail every little detail on how to build this thing from what materials to how we screw the screw nails but couldn't bother to write down how to create this 'Gnosis' as he calls it," Lupin grumble as he flips through the journal.

Lupin's phone then began ringing.

He answers the phone. "Hello," Lupin answers. his face then turns serious. "What? I'll get the other to help." The beastman put his phone back into his pocket.

"Sorry, old man, I need to leave. It's important," Lupin said to Grimnarl. He then began to pack up his stuff.

Grimnarl was about to throw his wrench at Lupin for calling him old but stop himself when he saw how serious the wolf beastman was. "It's alright, and stop calling me old!" He said.

Lupin smiles a bit and ran out of the inn. he then pulls his phone out and calls Drake as he ran back to the inn. "Come on, answer the damn the call," He mutter.

Drake didn't answer the phone for a long time causing Lupin to become irritated. "Why won't he fucking answer the god damn phone..." Lupin growls. He ran down the street, he was just about to get to the inn.

*With Drake and Lester*

"Alright, we're back at the inn."

Drake and Cyan walk into the inn, still empty, and went to their usual spot to relax. Drake pulls his phone out of his pocket to see several notifications of Lupin trying to call him. "Must have not noticed Lupin trying to call me when chasing Cyan around," He said.

The phone then rings as Lupin calls Drake. "Might as well answer it," He said. Just as he was about to answer the call the entrance of the inn flew open, revealing Lupin sweating and angry.

Lupin look at Drake, and growls.

"Why did you not answer my call?" Lupin growls, his sharp teeth showing.

Drake, however, was not scared. "What are you? My clingy ex-girlfriend?" Drake asks.

"Wait, you had a girlfriend?" Cyan question.

"We don't talk about her," Drake responded. "After all, it is very annoying to talk tell about her. Crazy bitch." He then turns to Lupin. "So what you want?" He asks Lupin.

Lupin close his eyes and took a deep breath as he tried to calm himself down. After a moment, Lupin finally calms himself down and looks at both Drake and Cyan. "Lester calls Peter but when Peter answers, Lester did not answer," Lupin said. "Also, both Brick and Basil were with him and all three of them were not seen for a long time."

"That is worrying," Drake said. "Peter told us to call him if anything happens to us and Lester call Peter but didn't say anything when Peter picks up the call." He then groans. "And both Basil and Brick were with him and that the three of them weren't for past hours which mean that they're in trouble...Can we just file a missing person report on those three?"

'You don't seem very worried," Cyan noted.

"That's because Basil always gets into the most trouble with Lester making the problem worse so many times and always come out unharmed in the past," Drake explains. "The only person I'm worried about is Brick."

Lupin shook his head as Drake question about filing a missing person report. "Peter said not to contact the guardsmen since they might be involved with this, we're supposed to meet up with him at the inn," He explains as he closes the door behind him. "Oh, and where did those three say they were going?"

"They said they were going to the town's mall," Drake answer. "Anyway, I going to get all of my equipment just in case."

As he was going up the stairs the entrance to the inn open for Peter to walk into the inn. he closes the door behind him and faces everyone that was in the inn.

"Good to see you guys again."

"You said that like you haven't seen us for a long time."
