An Extra’s POV

Chapter 456

'I messed up!'

Rey could already sense the expectations of the audience directed towards him and Esme--specifically Esme.

'Because of our actions, most of them aren't turning back.'

There just wasn't enough casualties or despair to drive the weak away. For that very reason, many of them thought they had a chance.

'But was I supposed to? Watch as all of them got wiped out?'

If he did that, the number of casualties would have exceeded what the Guilldmaster had projected in his grand plan.

Pretty much anyone who was a Veteran would have died.

'That would be an extremely negative blow on the entire Conquest. The Veterans might have chosen to leave at that point.'

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.

If this imbalance festered for long enough, many more problems would rear its head.

'The only way the Guild can combat things by then is to raise the reward of those missions on order to make them appealing to the top Adventurers.'
