Chapter 138: Back In The Guild Pt.1

Getting tired of waiting, Lake turned around and headed inside. He was sure he wasn't the only one making this decision either with the sun starting to come up. He was annoyed but it wasn't that big of a deal to wait 10 hours for something that never ended up happening. Looking at his servants he said. "I'm going to sleep now, feel free to do the same."

He was sure they would set up a rotation so there would always be someone out there who would wake the rest of them up so he didn't even bother giving them the order. Lucas had told everyone about the giant yesterday while he had been out getting his new stuff from the Blacksmiths guild so everyone was anticipating the fight that was going to happen and that included his servants.

Walking to his bedroom area Lake stared at his old satchel that was sitting on his table as he got into bed. He had ended up keeping the dagger so it was going to bother him every time he saw it until he found a good place to hide it.

He wasn't too afraid of Tiffany telling anyone about him or the fact that she found the dagger because he was sure she didn't want to get rid of her only chance at getting away but he had no way of knowing if other people could use the same method she had used to track him down.

As he closed his eyes he assured himself that she would cover for him and that he wouldn't be hearing from them anytime soon so he could stop thinking about it and just go to sleep.

...

Opening his eyes naturally after getting as much as he wanted, Lake guessed the fight had never kicked off. It was a good thing because it gave him another day to do what he wanted after work. "Work." Lake couldn't help become less happy as he remembered there was stuff he had to do but became slightly less aggrieved as he remembered where he was doing it.

There was always something interesting going on in the master lab so even if his repetitive work had become annoying and boring he could keep himself busy by looking at what other people were working on. Getting up and going to get his bag, Lake realized he was going to have to wear his chest piece if he wanted to take his bag everywhere like he usually did.

Lake shrugged, it wasn't that hard to get it on so there was no point in focusing on the one bad thing about this new bag. Plus you never knew when you would accidentally get stabbed so being safe was never a bad thing. Once he had his armor on, Lake walked towards the door only to be stopped by one of his servants coming down from their room.

Looking towards the balcony Lake saw another one was coming in so it seemed he had just happened to be leaving when they were changing watch. Since he had two here he guessed he might as well do something he had forgotten about last night. "Can you guys look into getting me one of those belts I've seen people wearing around the guild."

"Yes Sir." Lake nodded and walked out of his door. Getting to the stairwell he cast fly and less than a minute later was at the top of the spire, well not quite the top. He always walked the last ten because he didn't think it would be a good idea flying through the barrier like thing that covered the top ten floors.

Getting to the Master Lab door Lake got his badge out and stuck it to his chest and walked in. He had been granted access by Nancom on his first day so this was nothing new to him but this was the first time he had done this and been completely alone after entering. Looking around to make sure he was actually alone, Lake couldn't help but to think about the vault.

He stopped himself before he could actually consider it though. He would never be able to get inside the vault so there was no reason to even go over there because all it would do was make him look suspicious if somebody walked in. Not to mention there was literally going to be an execution in the next few days because somebody had stolen from the guild. He didn't want to be added to that because someone saw him trying to open the vault.

After waiting a few minutes Lake left the Lab and headed towards Lucas's office. If there was anyone who could tell him why the master lab was empty it would be the guild leader but he doubted he would have to ask because he thought the masters would probably be there when he got there.

After flying all the way down to Lucas' office Lake found it too was empty. Stopping because he realized what might be happening, Lake used the mark he had on Lucas' amulet to see where he was. Seeing Lucas was just in the next room over, or Lucas's bedroom, Lake thought maybe he was right and in the minute it had taken him to get from his room to the master lab the fight had started.

Running over to Lucas' room, Lake knocked and a few seconds Later the door was opened by one of Lucas's servants. Lake didn't let them say anything and asked. "Is the fight happening?" The servant looked slightly confused and said. "No it isn't." Lake hadn't been expecting this answer and asked. "Where's everyone at then?"

"I don't have an exact answer but I would guess they're all on their balconies waiting for the giant or asleep because they stayed up all night." After he heard this Lake remembered that no one in the spire had to do anything so the fact no one was working just meant they didn't feel like it right now because they didn't want to miss anything.

"Ok I'm sorry for bothering you." After he said this the servant quickly closed the door and Lake assumed they ran back outside to stare at the city with the rest of the guild. As he walked back towards the stairwell Lake wondered how often something like this happened, and then he wondered if it was like this in the whole guild or just in the spire.

Lake vaguely knew there were normal members that also worked here. They were on the lower floors and he thought they were probably still working even if they didn't want to. Switching the direction he was going, Lake went towards the elevator. He had been curious about the rest of the guild building for a while but he had never bothered to really look around because the guild was just too big and half of the places he would end up finding were going to be empty.

This place had originally held so many more people than it did now when it had been the Mages guild. Riding the elevator down to the first floor, Lake headed towards a place he had kind of seen before, it was a room next to the cart area of the guild where they prepared the items they were sending out.

He figured he could just follow the items that were coming into this room back to where they came from to find the people that were responsible for making the items they sold. He could probably just ask but this seemed like it would take up more of his time and that was part of his goal. He would get to work studying later but right now he wasn't really in the mood for reading.

Right after lake walked into the room with all the packed items lake saw people that were working getting things into carts. It seemed the guild was still conducting business while they could but he wast here to watch this so he looked at one of the people that had just brought some stuff here and followed them out of the room.

Entering a hallway he had never seen before Lake saw it kept going for what seemed to be a mile and there were countless doorways that had people walking in and out of them carrying what he assumed were ingredients to make whatever potion was being made in that particular room.

Wanting to see if everyone of these doorways led to a lab, Lake started to look through the doors as he walked down the hallway. He quickly found that most of these rooms were being used for storage or empty and only a small minority were actually labs, he also saw a few rooms that had plants growing in them but there weren't that many.

He wondered if these were plants that didn't keep very well after being harvested so they were growing them near to where they would be used. He thought that would probably be something they did but he guessed it could be that these plants were used often and were easy enough to grow that they just did it here so they would always be on hand.

Getting further down the halfway Lake started to see closed doors and looking further down the hallway he saw past this point there were guards actually guarding the rest of the hallway. Lake wasn't afraid of the guards though so he just walked over to them and asked. "Am I allowed to pass?" And held up his badge to show them who he was.

"Yes sir." Lake nodded and walked past. Since the doors were closed he went up to the first one and opened it. Stepping inside Lake saw something he hadn't seen in a while: Alchemists his age. Well that wasn't exactly true because of Millie but he never saw her do any Alchemy and she was more of a chef in his opinion because all she did was cook food.

Walking in Lake was only able to take one step before someone stopped him. "Are you the new guy?" Lake was about to say no because he was sure saying yes would lead to work but the Insider stopped him. It wanted him to say yes for some reason and he guessed the reason was pretty obvious when you took its name into account.

"Yes." Lake didn't give any more information because when you were answering a yes or no question with a lie all the extra stuff you wanted to add to make it more believable actually did the opposite. "You're kind of early." Lake just shrugged, being early wasn't a bad thing so he didn't see a reason to make an excuse.

The only thing he really needed to worry about was the fact the actual new person could be here at any moment, but that was fine, his lie wasn't malicious so he could just act like it was a joke when they got here. "Ok well you'll be replacing Dena when her shift is over so you can just spectate until it's time for you to take over."

Lake nodded and went to where the man was pointing, when he got there he looked at the woman he guessed was the Dena he would be watching until whoever he was pretending to be got here. Lake couldn't fathom what the insider wanted from him in this situation. All this lie had done was make it so he could stand here quietly until the person got here which was just a waste of time as far as he could tell.

Lake focused on what Dena was doing. He might as well finish what he had been doing in the first place when he came in here, which was seeing what normal members did all day. He guessed this was the best chance he could ever hope for to get insider knowledge without them knowing he was from the spire.
