"They’re back!"
The people had been waiting for the raid group’s arrival right outside the landing area.
Even Kanaria’s mother was there to watch the show.
"Welcome back, Miss Hana." The mayor politely greeted her.
"The raid is a success, Mayor. Although an incident occurred and we had to return faster than the original schedule, I can proudly say that there’s no death and all seven targets have been eliminated." Hana smiled.
The mayor smiled, not knowing the difference in strength between normal beasts and the beasts in that forest. He thought the people just did their jobs as expected.
"Is that so? I’m just glad that you managed to come back, and everyone is safe."
Hana nodded. "I will take my time today to review the result… maybe picking a few people to experience the world."
"!!!" The mayor’s eyes lit up. It seemed that there were some people who managed to pique her interest.
He would definitely find them and reward them appropriately. This way, they would have an attachment to this city and return once they got all the skills from the OpenSky company.
"Please take your time." The mayor extended his hand, asking Hana to come with him to the car.
After Hana, all the people began to come down the battleship, meeting their respective groups.
Clovis’s group came out the latest. Without warning, Kanaria’s mother leaped toward them as if she were glad everyone was fine.
Clovis just avoided her as his eyes saw Vina walking out of this place by herself. It seemed that she was leaving Ivan’s group.
When he found Ivan’s group, he noticed the change of expression that President Thomas had. It was rather satisfying.
…
"What did you say? You only managed to kill one Tier 3 beast?" President Thomas wasn’t satisfied with their performance.
However, Elina hurriedly said, "That can’t be helped. Even a normal beast is twice as strong. Most people have to team up to kill a beast of the same tier. It takes a whole group to kill a beast one tier above them."
"Is that so? Is that the real reason why she picked that place?" Thomas rubbed his chin while glancing at Hana. If that was the case, it seemed that they had done extremely well. "So, the ones who killed the most Tier 3 beasts were people from the OpenSky group?"
"That’s…" Elina rubbed her cheek, looking troubled.
That was already enough for an answer to Thomas. The only name that Elina didn’t want to say was none other than Clovis’ group.
"Tell me what happened." His face turned pale.
Elina hesitated for a moment, but she decided to recount everything from the beginning. "It’s better if you also hear the opinion from other groups… but it all starts from…"

The more he listened to Elina, the angrier he became. He never thought all those things would happen during the raid.
Meanwhile, Vania had secured the group and left the area. She was laughing the entire time.
"Hahahaha! This is going to be hilarious. I have to call all my connections in the media to spread the news. It will definitely do some damage to those people." Vania smirked, ready for a war. However, she soon stopped and turned to Clovis. "But I need your permission first.
While you’re bound to be famous because of this, it will become much bigger if I intentionally spread it."
Clovis smiled helplessly. "It’s fine. I’ve told them that while I’m planning to hide my identity, it’s fine to reveal my achievement. Those who want my identity will figure it out sooner or later anyway."
"Alright. I will use it to strike the Drake Group." Vania thought for a moment. "Now that I think about it, should I punish those girls that expelled you from your previous group, Ria?"
Kanaria shook her head. "You should give them a reward… or maybe a celebratory feast. Without them, I won’t be able to join the Libation Fiesta."
"That’s true. I love that sarcasm." Vania gave a thumbs up with a playful look as if she were saying, ’That’s my daughter.’
"If possible, can you delay it for one day?"
"I can, but why?" Vania tilted her head.
"I mean, I’m going to sell some essence and buy some stuff. I don’t want journalists to stop me from doing all that. It’s annoying."
"Oh! You can leave it to me." Vania thought his request was reasonable and agreed without hesitation. "In fact, you can hire a company to do all that. Kanaria has used their service, right?"
"Well, our team consists of only four people. If it’s getting bigger, then I’ll probably use it. But since we are still a small group right now, I can handle it personally." Kanaria glared at her mother.
Vania almost forgot that Clovis usually accompanied Kanaria shopping. It was a date for them. The fact that she, who was obsessed with it, would forget about this important matter meant she was a failure.
"Alright. I’ll do just that," Vania replied with a dejected face.
Clovis only gave a wry smile, while thinking, ’I wonder how much I can get from this trip. Five Tier 3 beasts should give about three hundred to four hundred thousand. No one needs Tier 3 beast essence right now, so we can sell all of them. As for the remaining beasts, we can sell about 20% to 30% of them.
’Getting another hundred thousand shouldn’t be a problem. In addition to the essence that OpenSky has as well as the reward, we can probably get a total of eight hundred… no, it might reach nine hundred thousand at this point.’
Clovis became slightly greedy. He couldn’t help but imagine what kind of things he could buy with this much money. There was also some essence they hadn’t sold from the trip to the hot spring.
Clovis pumped his fists. It seemed that Tier 2 was just around the corner.
As expected, once they returned, the news instantly spread. A lot of people recounted their experience during the raid and as the greatest contributor, Clovis’s name was mentioned a lot of times.
Finally, big news appeared.
