Pretty much anyone who was a Veteran would have died.

Even after the Conquest was over, the deaths of those thousands was bound to negatively affect the Adventurers Guild.

'The Guild earns a certain percentage from the Quest Rewards that Adventurers get directly from them. Also, Adventurers pay taxes too...'

The entire Quest system would also be compromised since there would be a severe shortage in the number of low-ranked Adventurers to take on low-ranked jobs.

Higher-ranking Adventurers would never want to want to take on those jobs since the pay would pale in comparison to the Quests that existed normally in their purview. Not only that, but their pride as higher-ranking Adventurers wouldn't let them stoop so low.
