The Ancients World

~~~(POV: Hailey Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: The Cartographers Shop, The City of Techart)~~~

~~~(Time: 12:21 PM)~~~

I finally reach the front fucking counter, and I can see the people working here are just as exhausted as I am. Figuratively, of course.

"How may we help you, Miss?"

The man working the front desk sounds dead and ready to quit his job on the spot. I've never seen such a defeated young man before. 

"Hello... I'd like a map to Retooks Hideout. All I need is to make a marker on my own map." 

His eyes fill with a sense of wilted life, and a shadow befalls him. If I didn't see this before in my father, I'd think he'd be sick.

"You and everyone else, miss... Just hold on while I get the people that can help you with what you need..."

He leaves into the back of the store, and only a few seconds pass before a scream comes from the back. 

"Fuck this bullshit!! I quit! These Players can't tell the difference between their ass and the ground without a God damn marker!! Has anyone ever heard of doing it without abusing us cartographers!!" 

A different man storms out of the room the front desk man went into. He pushes through the crowded shop and slams the front door open as it shakes on its hinges. The glass even cracks on the window on the door.

"He's got the right idea, but I need the money..." 

The front desk man comes out of the room the man stormed out of and makes his way toward me. 

"I'm sorry, Miss... But that was our last Marker Maker, and we won't be able to help you."

He flinches as my expression darkens and my rage grows.

I've stood in this line for more than an hour, and right when I make it to the front. They're saying there isn't anyone left to help me! This place is full of full-blown CUNTS!!!

"You do realize that if I don't get what I want in the next minute, I'm going to tear this entire shop to the ground... And don't test me... I have more than enough power to do this..."

My words have a devastating effect on the man, and he slowly backs away and runs into the back office. There is some shouting for a few seconds, but a big bald fat man busts through the door.

"Who the fuck is threatening to destroy my shop!?"

The man that I've been talking to is puny compared to this man, and I'm sure if I should laugh or start my rampage. I've dealt with so much bullshit today.

"That's the lady right there... She said that if she doesn't get what she wants in the next minute, she'll destroy the whole shop..."

He glares at me, and his face takes on a disgusting twist seeing that I'm an attractive woman. The Players behind me start to back away at the look. Especially the female Players.

"Well... I don't mind forgiving a beautiful woman, but it'll cost you. Why don't you tell me your name before we go back into my office, and talk..." 

He puts extra emphasis on the word talk, and he's standing on the other side of the counter. 

<br/>My blood is boiling at this point, and it speaks to my self-control that I haven't killed this man and destroyed his shop yet. If Cera heard him talking to me like this, he'd annihilate this entire city.

My expression hardens as he leans over the counter to get a better look at my face, and he stinks like a stye filled with shit. I don't gag, but the feeling is there.

He sees my disgusted look, and his hopeful demeanor falls. I take he receives the look I'm giving him a lot.

"My name is Hailey Adamo, and I'm here for a map so I can make a Marker for my next destination. You still have 20 seconds before I start leveling this place."

He raises an eyebrow and actually uses Inspect on me. His face turns purple as he falls on his ass and knocks over some chairs in the process. 

He regains himself and sits on his hands and knees with his head on the cold stone of the floor. He's just realized who I am, and now the begging should start.

"Ms. Adamo!! Lady Adamo!! Please, don't destroy my shop!! I'm sorry for the incredible disrespect that I've shown! Can you find forgiveness for me in your heart!? I beg of you!!"

His time is still going down, and I don't think he's paying attention to that part of the conversation. 

"You still have 11 seconds to get me the map. I need to make a Marker on my map. Time's ticking." 

My cold words piece into him like an ice arrow. He lifts himself off the ground and runs at speeds that are counterintuitive to his size. He nearly falls, but he's in the room where the man stormed out. It's funny. I don't think he knows what I want.

But the shouting earlier in the office might've involved that. He comes out of the room and has a piece of paper in his hand. He runs back, and he's only got 2 seconds left. He slams it on the counter as time runs out.

"Here... Is... Your... Order..." 

He's desperately trying to catch his breath and looking at me in hope.

In the end, he's done what I've tasked, and in the allotted time I've given him. I take the page and open it to ensure that it's everything I need. It's a map showing the location of Retooks Hideout, and I combine it with my map, and a new Marker shows up.

"I don't know what kind of disgusting sweatshop you're running here, but I'm telling Commander Eren about my experience here, and you better pray he's as merciful as I am."

I turn, and the Players in the shop make a path for me. Whispering between each other about who I am and what I'm doing here in Techart. 

There was no need to pay, and I won't have problems given that guy's cowardice. 

This pretty much marks the end of my time here in Techart, but I should say a final goodbye to Commander Eren. He's been such a great help, and I couldn't have done all this without him.

To my dismay, what Flintock said about Retooks Hideout being 350 miles away is right. I'm surprised that senile old man could remember that, but not where the information was in the book. 

~~~(POV: Commander Eren)~~~

~~~(Location: Guard Barracks, Techart City)~~~

~~~(Time: 12:40 PM)~~~

"Commander Eren! Ms. Adamo is here to see you again!"

Now that's a surprise. I didn't think I'd see her again after taking her to Flintock. 

She enters the office, and I can see the disappointment on her face. Flintock is a strange old man, but not that strange. Something must've happened.

"Flintock was... Not the cause of the mood you're in, was he?"

She shakes her head and spends the next 2 minutes explaining it to me.

"REALLY!!? The Disrespect!!"

Never in my life would I think of someone treating Miss Adamo so terribly while in our city!!

"Men!! We've got to pay a visit to the cartographer's shop!!"

Ms. Adamo sighs and folds her arms.

"As much as I want to see the punishment, you'll deal that man. This is where I'm leaving."

She takes on a gentle expression and gives me a nice smile.

"Thanks for all the help, Commander Eren. Techart's in good hands."
