[Hibba Agip]

*Sigh* Look at me, I used to command the desert of Morocc, but I've been deployed to a world that only God knows where...

[Staff Officer Abidal]

Come on'that's not ture. In fact, you used to be an official of a small town, and have been promoted to the commander of the expedition.

Your success is almost too good to be true.

[Instructor Igrid]

Hey, boss. Can we just go through the motions until we get out of here? This so-called Ash-Vacuum is boring. It's heaven for the kingdom's scholars, but it's not for me.

Geez, do you have to keep calling me boss? It's Commander, alright?

Hmpf! So disrespectful.

Can you guys stop complaining?

God...

Who are you? What business do you have with Commander Agip?

What is it?

Err? Hey, aren't you that famous adventurer,

I don't know what you're talking about. Boss, do you know this adventurer?

Stop calling me boss! Call me Commander, alright? Hey Abidal, is this adventurer really famous?

Commander, haven't you read the report? The adventurer who helped the expedition solve the XX case was

*Ahem Ahem* I see. I've been too busy to read all the reports. So what brings you here? A reward?

This is perfect. I was going to send a messenger to you for an important discussion.

Hey Abidal, he's here to see me, not you. Remember?

Commander, please let me talk.

Why do you want to talk privately?

Is it because of me? Grrr... I'll be watching you, Abidal.

What are you still doing here? Go, go speak to Abidal.

I'm not the one who has business with you. You should go speak to Staff Officer Abidal.

Oh yes, right... You're

We're lucky to have you, my friend... I hope you're as good as the stories play you up to be.

Commander, please!

Alright, alright. gosh will you stop yelling at me?

You're not going to live long if you get angry at all the little things.

Anyways, I took some time to check your background and reports of your accomplishments.

I must say that I'm quite impressed.

As you know by now, I have to send out an expedition report to the national leaders of the Midgard continent, and I need someone that I can trust.

I'd go if I could, but my duty is to command, and my instructor over there is too dense. He'll embarrass me by acting stupid in front of the national leaders.

Come on, boss... Er, Commander!

Don't you think you're exaggerating?

Hmm... Anyways, this is not a difficult mission. All you have to do is deliver this expedition report to officials of three countries of Midgard. Simple right?

The officials are Minister Laur of the Rune-Midgarts' Kingdom, Priest Nuria of Arunafeltz, and Gerhart of the Schwatzvalt Republic.

A messenger, who will inform the official of your arrival, is waiting for you at the time-space gap to Midgard. You'd better find him before you leave.

Since the officials are busy attending to national matters, they won't meet you unless they're informed of your arrival beforehand. I doubt those pretentious guys would even want to see me.

Travel safely, adventurer, and come back in one piece, alright?

Haven't you left yet? It's hard to make ends meet, isn't it?

I mean, if you want to be paid, you'll have to work. Do you still not understand? I'm saying that you better proceed with your mission.

Hmm...

......

Alright, alright. I know why you've come to see me.

They haven't gotten the report yet. We should send out soldiers...

That's not why I'm concerned. The problem is that the assignee failed to complete the mission and lost the report.

Anyways... It's alright. You don't have to feel bad. I understand you didn't mean it this way.

Commander, who might have done this? I will destroy him myself.

Don't impose. Our troops aren't just from one nation, they are from thre different countries, and are here to pursue their country's own interest.

Hard to say... who is behind this. If I had to guess, either side could be behind this...

*Spit* This is why I don't trust politicians. Abidal, resolving this incident is your top priority.

Igrid, evaluate the security of this camp and discipline among the soldiers.

Now it's your turn... Abidal disposed reports from various departments after he used them to compile the expedition report.

We take the security of our documents seriously. So... There are no extra copies of the expedition report.

I still remember at least 30% of the document. I might be able to rewrite another...

I need it to be perfect. What can we do with only 30%?

Hey, you must find the report. If you bring as may pages of the report as you can, then Abidal will use them to fill missing parts.

Some of them might have be consumed by monsters, or have found their way to the sea, but I don't care. You'll find them at all costs, and that's my order.

I hope you'll do your best. You need to finish what you've started. We'll do our best to help you. Am I right, guys? Abidal? Igrid?

Of Course, I'm happy to...

Now, search everywhere for the pages of that report. Staff Officer Abidal will bind them into the full report for you.

Ah, and... I've received a report that you tried to hand out the report to our enemy when the situation happened.

Argh...

Hahaha! You're smart, my friend. Of course, I don't like smart soldiers.

Let me tell you this: I can care less about justice or righteousness, but loyalty and faithfulness are very important. Keep that in mind for your own good, alright?

I wish you good luck in finding the pages. Try to clean any smudges off them when you find them, alright?

Commander, I'll go find those evil scoundrels...

I wonder who's behind this. Frankly, I must say that every country is a suspect.

Ah, and... I've received a report that you fought hard against the enemy to protect the report from them.

Umm...

Hahaha, you're fearless and I can make good use of a soldier like you at any time of the day.

Let me tell you this, loyalty and faithfulness are very, very important. They may cause you hardship sometimes, but those qualities will guarantee you the last laugh.

Talk to my staff officer until you're finisehd finding the pages of the lost report. Right now, I'm swarmed with work.

I'm sure you'll easily find those if you keep your eyes open. I must warn you about the monsters around this area though. Who knows? They might love the taste of paper.

How have you been doing? I've heard Igrid has personally send out his soldiers to support you guys.

Haven't you met them?

While searching for the report, look around and meet our soldiers.

They've been sent to help you and Abidal. Ask their help if you think you need it.

So, the report has been restored successfully?

This was finished more quickly than I thought. Let me see...

It looks alright. I don't have to read this thoroughly because I trust Abidal.

Now, let's go back to your original mission. I'd like you to deliver this to the national leaders of the three countries of Midgard.

Dont worry too much, my friend.

I've arranged troops in the time-space gap to protect the report.

Of course, you can't see them because they're undercover soldiers under my direct command. Hahaha!

Let me remind you again. The officials are these three people: Minister Laur of the Rune-Midgarts Kingdom, Priest Nuria of Arunafeltz and Gerhart of the Schwarzwald Republic.

Make sure to deliver the report to them without fail. Come back in one piece, alright?

Is something wrong? Alright, we'll write another report for you.

Oh, how was your trip? Hey, you look better than you did when you left. Did you drop by your hometown and enjoy great food or something?

So tell me, did you bring the report to all three national leaders? Good job.

I understand there were some unforeseen obstacles we didn't anticipate since we thought this mission was pretty trivial, but you still did your best.

I must warn you, however, this is not the end of these strange events. You're involved in this situation so deeply that you can't get out of it. Hahaha!

Don't worry. I'm not here to fool around. Isn't that right?

Yes, sir. We can't let the same thing happen again.

I shall find out who's behind this, and destroy him.

So... I was hoping that you'll come back and help us once we figure out who's behind this. Will you?

And please take this small reward.

Thank you for your help so far.

Then I'll see you next time. Keep yourself in one piece, alright?

Hahaha!

Hey, how have you been? It's too early to say that we've figured out who's the mastermind.

Please be patient, I'll contact you when the time is right.

Wait, have you explored this area yet? I mean the wide tundra and fields around the camp.

There are many fun things outside. If you are an adventurer, go explore for yourself. Come back after you've explored the areas around the camp.

Ah, it's you again. So, are you accustomed to this area now?

What brings you here again? You seem to have something to say to me.

Well hello then...

Please be patient. I'll contact you when the time is right.

What portal? I've never heard about it.

That place must be where both races fight against each other. It might be dangerous there.

I have no idea of what it is like. It is not in my field of expertise.

There is someone here who can help you. He is a historian from Rune-Midgarts. He may be aware of some relics or something that could help.

Find the historian and see if he has any useful information for you.

He's at his post, you can't find him?

His name is Magniffer... look for him.. he's somewhere around here...

Did you talk with the scholar? Thesedays, I haven't seen him for a while.

That's because you don't like talking to him.

Hey, don't judge me like that...the problem is only that I can't see him often.

Whatever. Did something happen because he showed up to me? Tell me more.

Hmmm... umm... so...

So, that's why that happened like that... It's so complicated...

And you guys...you just take a task that you start up at first.

You sent him to Doctor Magnifer first....

I just thought that he needed someone to talk to.

Ah yeah... you're right.

Hmm... for example, you want to investigate a cave that you found, but you got on the Laphine and Sapha's nerves. right?

And that two guys pay attention and stay quiet, but they are doing it for themselves..

The most important thing is that this place is the ground that the Yggdrasilberry takes root acording to Magnifer.

Abidal, do you have anything to say about this?

Our object is to make contact with one tribe and investgate this world and how adaptable it can be.

Actually, we don't have to make this situation bigger than it already is.

Yeah right. I don't want to extend this thing anymore...

But the two tribes have remained neutral towards us up until now.

We don't really know what attitude they have towards us.

Yeah.. that makes sense... If they made a general attack, we would probably fail.

We should map out a strategy. There is a method that uses Laphine and Sapha's together.

We send this guy to one of the tribes and ask for cooperation in our investigation.

Will they help us? They have already said threatening words...

Of course they will help us. if they reject our demand, we just say that we'll ask for help from the other tribe.

Right, if we do that, they will have no other choice.

In this situation, they want to avoid showing that place to the other tribe.

So, they have to cooperate with us.

Oh, you have a malicious idea.

That's called that Kuhotanrangjigea from east. I didn't make that by myself.

Whatever.. Hey, you there... your name is

Go to one of the tribes and ask for help officially. I'll send someone to the other tribe.

I'm going to give you a choice. Which tribe do you want to go to?

Okay, then I place responsibility on you. from now on you focus on acquiring a good reputation with the Laphine.

It won't be easy to get a good impression from the Sapha again.

So you must earn us a good reputation from the Laphine.

Will you choose the Laphine?

Good. You are now responsible with building our relationship with the Laphine tribe.

Go to the chief of the Laphine and if he doesn't accept our request, just say that you are going to ask for help from the Sapha.

You have your orders! Now I'm going to look for an adventurer who is willing to be sent to the Sapha.

Yeah? Then think again and decide.

Okay, then I place responsibility on you. from now on you focus on acquiring a good reputation with the Sapha.

It won't be easy to get a good impression from the Laphine again.

So you must earn us a good reputation from the Sapha.

Good. You are now responsible with building our relationship with the Sapha tribe.

Yeah? then think again and decide.

I'm going to look for an adventurer who is willing to be sent to the Sapha.

How's the activity in Laphine? They have a stern character.

I'm not cut out for matching with them...ew...

I'm going to send a few able men to the Sapha, you don't have to worry about it.

How's the activity in Sapha? They have a stern character.

I'm going to send a few able men to the Laphine, you don't have to worry about it.

You've come back alive? Let us celebrate your immunity!

Who would have thought that that outsiders would be treated so vulgar by the leaders of the other tribes?

I have said before this thing is not the last, and certainly there is something waiting for us.

It is time for us to head out, is it not, instructor?

Right... It's time...

I'm ready.

I am looking forward to what will happen... Whew...

Come on, that's not true. In fact, you used to be an official of a small town, and have been promoted to the commander of the expedition. Your success is almost too good to be true.

Hey, boss. Can we just go through the motions until we get out of here? This so-called Ash-Vacuum is boring. It's heaven for the kingdom scholars, but it's not for me.

Geez, do you have to keep calling me boss? I'm the Commander, alright? So disrespectful.

Can you guys stop complaining? God...

What is it? If you have too much time on your hands, you'd better go outside and find something productive to do.
