During the Dark Ages

As soon as they arrived at City D, they spotted a swarm of fire bees flying around the city, obviously looking for food. Using [Aura Vision], Colin determined that there weren't any tier 4s among them and allowed his subordinates to take care of them. The fight didn't take too long as their were only around a hundred or so bees, but a few of the members did get injured.

[Bartus, where are you? I'm in the city.] Colin said through [Telepathy]

[We're underground, are all the fire bees dead.] Bartus asked

[Yes.] Colin replied

[Okay, we're coming now.] Bartus said. They waited for over an hour and Colin was starting to worry if they took too long, more fire bees will come. Even though more than a day had pass, he still wasn't back to a hundred percent, as even though his arm has fully regenerated, he had not recovered all his DP and Lily was still tired from using her trait. He didn't know how many tier 4 fire bees there were but he didn't doubt there were many and he didn't really want to face any right now. Just as he was going to contact Bartus again, he could see a little green creature running towards them and then he saw someone appear beside them, obviously a Leprechaun.

"Finally." Colin muttered as he could see more and more Leprechauns and goblins coming towards them

"So these are the Leprechauns you told me about, they're kinda cute aren't they." Alice commented idly as the Leprechauns came towards them. As more and more of them appeared, Colin began to realize just how big the Bartus guild was. Including the goblins, Colin counted at least sixty members and counting.

"Nice to see you guys again." Said a voice from beside them, turning around, Colin and Alice could see Mina standing beside them.

"Oh Mina, I'm glad to see that you got here safely. You just disappeared without telling us anything." Alice said

"Sorry about that, I was called back by the guild head and had to return immediately." Mina replied. The two girls struck up a conversation, with Alice talking about what happened after she left, but Colin wasn't too interested as he was keeping an eye out for a certain tier 4 Leprechaun.

"Colin, a pleasure to meet you again." Bartus said as he appeared beside Colin

"Don't sneak up on me like that, I might kill you by accident." Colin said

"You could try." Bartus smirked and Colin scoffed

"So, what can I do for you? I'm sure there is something I have that you could use, with so many members in your house." Bartus said with a wide smile

"It's like you can read my mind, but let's talk while we are on the road. I don't want to stay here longer than I have to." Colin said and Bartus agreed. He gathered up all the members of his guild and all of them went in the vehicles Colin brought with him. They seemed fascinated by the vehicles as they have never seen them before, or at least, any that were still intact. They soon took off once again and the demons, especially the goblins, seemed even more excited.

"What a strange contraption? I can't sense any demonic energy or even holy energy for that matter, so what's powering it." Bartus muttered to himself

"Electricity, and please don't ask me how it works, because I have no idea." Colin said

"I guess I'll just have to take it apart and see, it should be fun." Bartus said with a smile

"So, what can the Bartus guild do for you?" Bartus asked Colin

"Well, currently we need cursed weapons and regalias the most. Oh, and Lily mentioned something called an Evolution Guide, I would like to check that out. Also, I was wondering if you had any information on how to gain certain traits." Colin said

"I can get you the regalias, but the others will be a bit difficult. I'm not sure if I have many evolutionary guides in stock since they are mainly used by children. As for traits, I should have a Grimoire or two stock, but I'm not sure if the traits will be useful to you. And weapons, we'll have to make them, which means you are gonna have to get the cursed ores, and of course we'll give you a discount." Bartus explained with his hand on his chin

"We can do that." Colin replied
