Reincarnation Of Audemars - Chapter 148

The 36 of the adventurers that were sitting in a circle around us was stupified as they listened that there’s such thing as a Boss in the Southern Plains that leads their minions. Unlike the Northern Forest, the goblins and the trolls, they had not met any Bosses so far and the latter that they had vanquished was the hardest since they had to lure one by one away from the group using their ranges attacks.

They finally realised that the information that I had given to them regards to the Southern Plains was too invaluable and if I had mentioned about the Boss in the Southern Plains, it also means that I had encountered them and defeated them too. In fact, I had never encountered the Bosses before and I only stepped once in the Southern Plains and find it ‘Plain Boring’… Hah hah hah…

Seeing them on Level 3 across the board I asked Prius and Rebecca who had joined us for dinner on the courtyard and saw the bobbings of the Adventurer’s throats as they saw Prius and Rebecca was enjoying their dinner in front of them.

“Are they our new members?” Rebecca asked as she eyed them through her spoonfuls of rice coated with some light curry gravy and some baked pineapple chicken.

“Of course they aren’t. They are from the other Houses in the Northern District and they were here earlier to try out the obstacles. Since you are here, how do you get the adventurers to perform Quests? Are those Quests determined by your system or made up at your convenience?” I inquired Rebecca and Prius since I am interested in how they became Quest Masters.

“Some of the Quests are made up of their own while some are predetermined by the system itself. Those are the main quest while side Quests could be anything like a gathering Quest. Like collecting a number of resources and such.” Prius explained as he stuffed his face with food.

The other adventurers had not taken their dinners and I invited them to have supper instead because of limited supply. I called for one intern to serve up all their puddings and steamed cakes they had prepared in the kitchen and to serve the steamed corn kernels with the grated coconut as well.

“Let’s all have supper first before we continue.” I motioned to the adventurers as supper was being served. They sat at the end of the table while the ones reserved for the founders were in the other end.

“Prius, do you think I could create a quest for these adventurers? At least I could have them to perform something and reward them afterwards.” I queried as I had something in my mind that I would get them to do with experience points as well as a cash reward.

“Sure, just go to your interface and go to quest, choose to add and register your name as well as the type of Quests. Then you fill-up the necessary details such as minimum level and its descriptions and then your good to go. Put in the rewards as experience Points as well as credits for each accomplishment.” Prius replied and soon I was checking out n system’s interface and had created a quest in my own.

Soon I created a Quest called “Divine Journey” or “DJ” for short with a difficulty of 3/5 stars and a minimum level requirement of 3. There were 36 of them in front of me and it requires 12 team members. A 100 allocation points of would be given to each member of the team after its completion along with reward money of 10k credits would be awarded as well.

It was a gathering quest and it requires two types of gathering. One is information while the other is gathering of resources. Time to complete is 72 hours. Location is towards the end of each Northern, Eastern and Western borders town.

The information that they are required to gather is to find out the wellbeing of the Booty Whirl personnel who were manning the checkpoints and also to gather the following resources that we need.

I stated that I need amber oil from the Baltic tree, Amyris bush, Styrax tree, bergamot orange, clary sage herb, frankincense gum resin, guaiac wood, heliotrope flowers, Rockrose bush, lily of the valley, myrrh gum resin, narcissus flowering tree, opopanax herbs, iris plant, osmanthus flowering tree, agar tree, sandalwood tree, tonka bean, vanilla orchid, vetiver grass and ylang-ylang evergreen tree,

There are 21 types of plants that need to be brought back which evenly distributes as 7 plants per group. It should be potted and made into easy transportation and it would be grown in our Beauty World HQ.

Once I had completed it, I put it up as a Primary Quest and put it up as a closed quest, which means it would only be directed for a certain type of adventurers only.

“Nelson, who are the other 2 team leaders in your group?” I inquired and was told it was Wendy and Xander, the former is leading the Wizards and the former is leading the Assassins.

“Alright, the three of you, Nelson, Wendy and Xander. I have a quest for the three if you that runs simultaneously. It is a 3-day Quests and do you wish to accept it?” I inquired and they saw a notification on their own system that they were to be given a quest by me.

(System) Do you wish to accept an epic quest from Guild Master Audemars K. Macleod?

All 3 were overjoyed when they saw a quest out of Northern and Central District and this is considered as a one time off quest that would never be repeated. When the group leaders saw the announcement, they clicked ‘YES’ and the next announcement appears.

(System) You had activated the epic quest ‘DIVINE JOURNEY’. You would travel to either North, East or West border towns to gather information and 7 types of plants. A reward of 100 allocation points for each individual member and 10k each would be awarded as well. You have 72 hours to complete this quest. Details are enclosed within.

The moment they saw the Quests and the rewards they would receive, it was considered as a gift sent from Heavens. 100 allocation points where they could dump into their attribute and also 10k credits each.

Now all they need to do is to pick out their own members and then they would move out within the next 15 minutes. The group leaders discuss among themselves when they had accepted the quest and each decided which zone they would be going to.

“Guild Master, thank you for your generosity. We would not let you down. We will be back here on the 71st hour and hand the good news to you. Bade us Farewell and good luck on our journeys ahead.” Nelson was the first to spoke up as he had gathered his necessary mates to head out.

“Yes, Guild Master. We will not disappoint you,” exclaimed Xander as he thumped his chest with his fist and he coughed out due to the force that he had exerted on his chest.

“Guild Master, we take our leave now. Thank you for the hospitality and the quest.” Wendy added as the bowed down to perform a curtsy and left with her group.

Three groups of adventurers, 3 different locations and all with similar goals. Get information from all the 29 checkpoints and gather 7 types of plants that would be used for the perfumes.

21 types of new scents and current 14 from our side that would comprise of citrus, green apple, strawberry, lemon, green tea, blueberry, raspberry, lavender, rose, jasmine, lilac, frangipani, gardenia and peppermint.

That would make 35 new perfume scents and this would fit perfectly in those new 50ml dabbing porcelain bottles that we had bought earlier.

I took out the notepad and wrote down the types of scents of perfume that we are going to make and this surprises Patricia and said aloud, “Wow… We are going to have 35 new perfume scents? Isn’t it wonderful or what? This would make the sales rocket further. How much do you want to sell for each perfume?”

“Not much, 30 credits per scent would be good enough. Furthermore, the solution would be 50-30-20 where 50% would be concentrated essence, 30% would be the ethyl acetate and the 20% would be water-based. Don’t worry about the cost, it would do just fine. Furthermore, we had bought 500 litres from Joan and we would get her to produce some more if we need to.”

“Remember, our production lines would operate the new products of nail polish, polish remover, glitter eyeshadow, glitter nail polish and perfume on the first shift while the second shift would still be producing the same products such as shampoo, lipstick, blusher, makeup foundation, eye shadow, eyeliners and toothpaste.”

“There would be a total of 12 complete beauty products and I am sure this would be a boom for the rest of the towns. Hah hah hah… Its been a week since we had not had any incoming sales and as soon as our merchants move to their locations in the next few days, our packers and delivery guys are sure that going to get real busy.”

I claimed and was truly excited of the credits the would be trickling in. Since I had transferred the 40 million credits to Patricia earlier, she had accumulated a gross wealth of over 130 million credits before the deduction of the monthly operational costs.

The wealth was the results of the thousands of weapons and armours that had been produced for Atelier, Blake and Bruce. With just a balance of slightly over 1 million for myself, it is more than enough for our personal expenses.

In this world, millions of credits may mean like a big deal but in fact, it was compared to be only like hundred of thousands since certain goods and services are way off their charts, as a plot of land or even a house.

Owning a house means you have to purchase the man’s and that means the land and house tax would be imposed every half-yearly. If its a business, it would be imposed at every quarterly and that means its a 3% tax on top of the total value of the property.

I had Patricia pay up for all these without fail along with the half-yearly income taxes of the employees that came up to 2% of their gross income. It is a small portion to pay as long as our employees are not burdened with such trivial matters. Its roughly 90 to 100 credits per person for every 6 months and that amount could buy them at least 50 kg of rice for the household.

I concluded the meeting with the 3 of them and as the interns cleared up our tables before they leave for home, I too decided to enter my study and to meditate to enter the Realm of Mind and check out the progress for the Fusion Chambers.
