"Sure," Peniel answered. 'Then you know the monsters we will be encountering along the way too, don't you?' "What are you getting at?" 'Well, I thought if we can guess which monster we can hit on the road. Why not do the hunting quests at the same time?' Jack sensed Peniel gave this matter some thought in her hidden dimension, before he heard her voice again, "I cannot say for sure the exact path that duke's expedition will take, but considering the large numbers of traveling units, I can make an educated guess. So yes, I can most likely know which monsters should appear on the way." 'Great! Let's go take the hunting quests then,' Jack said excitedly. Inside the Hunters Association building, Peniel advised him to go to the Silver Hall directly. No need to take the Bronze Hall quest anymore. There are plenty of Silver Hall monsters that they could encounter on the road to the temple, so better take those high-grade ones for more amount of points. Jack followed her instructions and applied for ten specific monsters. Peniel mentioned that though these monsters might not be the ones with the highest points they could meet on the road, they were the ones that they were most likely to meet. These monsters were Flame Tiger, Tri-colored Cockatrice, Violent Ape, Vanishing lemur, Poisonous Giant Bee, Bewitching Spider, Giant Scorpion, Eight-legged Mare, Shadow Bat, Wind Elemental. All of them were grade B difficulty, except for Poisonous Giant Bee and Shadow Bat which were grade C difficulty. There was still some time left until the rendezvous time at the tavern. He decided to go back to the noble district and headed to Commander Quintus' mansion. When he arrived, neither commander Quintus nor Lindsey was at home. But the steward allowed him to use the Training Ground after he paid with Merit points. He paid twenty merit points for two sessions of training, which lasted for six hours. During this recent week where he filled it with monster grindings, adventure quests, hunting quests, and facing the challenges of all those players, he had upgraded another two of his skills. Parry and Magic Shield had upgraded to their second star. The other skills' proficiencies had also risen steadily. With the help of his Hard-working Achiever title, the time needed for his skills to improve had also shortened. After finished using his time at the Training Ground, he had only managed to upgrade another one of his skills to its second star, Swing. But his other skills' proficiencies had also increased greatly. Especially his Energy Bolts, it was not long before it would reach its second star as well. His Ice Ring was also about to arrive at its first star, because it carried over the proficiency from its past version spell, Mana Detonation. Since it's almost time, he hailed a carriage that brought him straight to Raven's Den. When he arrived, Bowler and The Man were already there, or perhaps, they had been there all along. These two were known as this place's frequent patrons, after all. Jack greeted them. The Man was level twenty-one already, same as him. Bowler was level 20. There were several of The Man's rough-looking crews as well there, ranging around level nineteen and 20. He counted them, there were seven of them apart from The Man.
