Chapter 196: The Goblin Village Of 'Bogmire'
"I think he will make it," he added after pulling back his sight.
"Is that so, sir? What makes you think that?" She asked with a perplexed tone.
There should be an almost non-existent likelihood that the new adventurer could make it through hundreds of quests in a mere week. Even a high-ranking adventurer would have some trouble completing so many quests in such a short span of time.
'Of course, there is the possibility that the woman he had with him could be at a high enough level. But I doubt that... Why would a high-level woman be with such a weak man?'
Her thoughts were swirling around, attempting to understand what made her Branch Master think they would make it back within 7 days. However, she was soon taken out of her reverie by the calm voice of her Branch Master.
"Just treat it as a gut feeling, Elara. They will make it back within 7 days, and I will offer them that quest that has been giving us some trouble."
"You mean the 'Earth Dragon Extermination' quest? The one that even multiple C-Rank Adventurer's could not complete within the allotted time limit?" She questioned with a bewildered look on her face.
"Yes, that is the one I am referring to."
"Is that wise, sir?"
"I think so."
"I see" She replied with a heavy sigh.
Her Branch Master was such an eccentric person, and she wouldn't deny the trouble's that come along with being subservient to such a 'unique' man.
"Just let it play out, and we shall see if they come back within the designated time period." His rich voice sounded out once more as he began to close his eyes.
One would think that he was in the midst of an enlightenment session if they saw him right now, however, that was far from the truth.
*Sigh*
An exasperated sigh escaped Elara's lips when she saw her master fall asleep in the middle of their talks again.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Sonic booms echoed out across the vast, expansive skiesskies that lay above the endless blue lands below. And at the source of such boisterous noises was a man holding two women, along with a slime.
"How many more goblin villages are we going to exterminate, Azmond?"
A sweet, melodic voice dripped into Azmond's ears as he turned down to see the judging look on her face.
'He has been destroying all the goblin villages before taking away all the women and putting them in his storage ring! What does he need all those women for???'
Her face began to darken when she thought about the hundreds of women he now had inside that seemingly endless storage ring of his.
"Ah, well, you see! That is because..."
He had nothing.
He couldn't think of a plausible excuse to get him out of this 'predicament'. It wasn't like his goal was to 'collect' all the women that were previously captured by all the monster villages. It just kind of happened
It's not like he liked seeing his 'pokemon collection' grow or anything! Definitely not!
(...)
He had to think of something to say, but what??
'Oh! That might work...' He had figured out what he wanted to say. Now he just needed to put it into action.
"I am just trying to save all the people I can, My Love~ It is my noble and valiant heart that tells me so! If I don't 'help' out all the women I can, then who will??
I do this for the greater good of the world!" He responded in a righteous tone as he looked Crystalline in the eye with a 'determined' gleam in his gaze.
"Really?" Her face turned a little doubtful.
"Of course, My Dear! I do this for the 'people'!"
A 'galiant' aura started to emanate out of him as they approached yet another monster village that needed to be 'exterminated'.
He set Crystalline, Boundless, and Emu down on a nearby mountain before his figure flashed at speeds nearing meteoric stardom!
WAAA!
A crimson aura was unleashed as swords of the same hue materialized in thin air!
Hundreds of said swords surrounded him like an impregnable fortress of shields as he pulled down his hand and let them loose.
Whoosh!
They glided through the skies before making their way into the primitive-looking village full of green goblins.
"Esceetch!!" "Esceetch!!"
Thud! Thud!
Loud screeches echoed out for a few seconds before he ultimately dispatched of all of the goblins in the village within record times!
*Ding!* *You have gained experience +500*
*Ding!* *You have gained experience +7000*
*Ding!* *You have gained experience +600*
*Ding!* *You have gained experience +300*
*Ding! You-...*
Pop-up notifications bombarded his vision in amounts numbering in the hundreds, and although he didn't level up, he gained a sizable sum of exp from this swift extermination mission.
Although the exp from the monsters wasn't his goal for these extermination missions to begin with, in actuality, he was doing it for the added quest completions and quest bonuses. All of which gave him a differently calculated amount of exp.
It even bordered on the millions of experience points from a simple 10-second extermination quest like this one. And this wasn't even the first quest he had been given by both the system and the Adventurer's Association. This was the 30th Quest he had completed for both of his quest givers.
And he had done so within an hour!
*Ding!* *You have completed 'Active Quest: 'Clean Out' the goblin village of 'BogMire'!*
*Ding!* *You have gained experience +10,000,000*
*Ding!* *You have leveled up!*
A few more notifications appeared in his vision as he made his way over to the large tent that lay in the middle of the encampment. It looked eerily similar to the large tents that held all the women in the last 30 monster villages he exterminated.
