The Urgent Warning

Taking the recordings with me, I came out of hiding, tracing back to the surface and exiting the dungeon. It was getting dark already, so I decided to call it a day. All things aside, before I head back home, I should visit the Guild.

"They should review this recording as well," I muttered to myself.

I headed straight for the Adventurer Guild. I didn't know what would happen after I showed others this recording, but at least I could alert everyone.

"Was it Mack and Riley?" I wondered aloud as I approached the bustling guild.

Arriving at the guild, I saw that it was busy. I could tell they were really preparing for the Raid I had heard about during their conversation. When I got in front of the Reception desk, the receptionist spoke to me.

"Ray, I'm glad you are here. There is something I forgot to tell you this morning. We are having a Hobgoblin raid in two days."

I was silent for a while, looking at the crowded environment. It didn't feel good to talk about it right here. So I asked the receptionist, "Yeah, about that raid, can we talk somewhere else?"

The receptionist, was confused but still says. "Follow me," , leading me to a quieter room in the back of the guild. The same waiting room I was in during registration.

Once we were inside, He closed the door behind us. "What's on your mind, Ray?" He asked.

I took a deep breath and pulled out the recording device. "I found something in the dungeon today. You might need to hear this."

I played the recording for him. Listening to the following conversation I'd recorded, he couldn't believe as he checked the timestamp which indicated modified 20 minutes ago.

The moment recording face, I can see the tense face on his face.

"We need to make report to guild master.", He said, in which I nodded in agreement.

He led me through the guild, weaving through the bustling adventurers and staff. We reached a large door at the end of a corridor, and he knocked softly 3 times.

"Come in," a deep voice called from inside.

opening the door, and we stepped into a spacious office. Behind a large wooden desk sat the Guild Master, an old man with a long beard. A very old adventurer still in his office.

"Guild Master, we have something urgent to discuss," Receptionist said, his voice steady.

The Guild Master was dumbfounded and asked. "What is it, Morgan?"

Morgan handed him the recording device. "You need to listen to this."

I suddenly wondered he never told me his name or did he? Well, I never asked him either. Now I know his name is Morgan.

He took the device, his expression growing more serious as he listened. When it finished, he set it down on his desk and looked at me. "Where did you get this, Ray?"

"I found it in the dungeon," I replied. "I was hiding when I overheard them."

The Guild Master leaned back in his chair, deep in thought. "This is troubling news. If what they're planning is true, it could mean disaster for the raid. We are already low on adventurer capable of fighting."

Morgan nodded. "What should we do, Guild Master?"

He sighed and said, "We need to discard their registration ID and inform our city lord, Count Albert. He will get punishment according to law."

"But Aren't we low on Fighting Force?", Morgan asked.

The guild master gave back the phone as he said, "Don't worry Count Albert's army will be helping during the raid."

Guild Master, stands up from his chair and walked towards me for a handshake.

"Thank you for telling us in advance. It's late now but I'm Gareth Griffin the guild master of this branch. Welcome to the guild young adventurer."

"Thank you!", I replied

Despite how old he appear, I can tell he i still a strong person just like Grandpa. After that my job was over. It was up to them, how to handle them. I did left a copy of the recording with them.

"Well anyway, I should head home now."
