Enok and the others also gained a lot from the deals. After a couple of months, their team was promoted and gained a lot of Points within their mercenary team. Like in Alterra, some of the more powerful mercenary teams employed a point system to its members contributing to its growth.

They had mercenary shops where some treasures obtained by the team could be exchanged for a certain amount of points. It could be weapons, equipment, special potions, even small space stones—though the last one had such big point requirements it was still in the store, unclaimed.

Of course, there were also a lot of teams who had planned on stealing deals from them. After all, deals were usually with mercenary teams, not individuals.

Sad for them, the deal with Alterra was always with individuals and their teams or territory. Any change in either would be under strict study and they might even lose the deal due to the show of instability.

Helios and Sahara also considered them their good friends, and having Alterrans as allies was definitely something in their favor.

That said, right now they were visiting the family and met up with them at a restaurant. Miss Sahara’s Mother was there, holding the baby, while Enok and the others chatted with Helios and Sahara.

"Have you joined a Mercenary team yet?" Enok asked, taking a bite of his sauteed Gugu bird and closing his eyes as he felt all the flavors explode in his tongue.

"Not yet," Helios said. When they found out that guards could also be in mercenary teams he and his uncle decided to do what they had always planned to do—make a mercenary team.

They had already met the level requirements and they could take loans to get the creation fee, but after months there had been no movements.

It felt like his uncle just seemed to have lost the will for adventure, just focusing on defending Iron Mountains. It was probably still due to heartbreak, and Helios didn’t pressure him either.

Seeing as he answered the negative, Enok and the others brightened up. "Then… would you like to join us?"

Helios blinked, and then looked at Sahara, who just smiled at him, ready to nod at whatever he decided.

He held her hand and thought for a few moments. It was a tempting offer. He could have the adventure he had always wanted, and he had to admit that—while dangerous—he did enjoy his time with them back when he was looking for Sahara.

The thing was… he had Sahara and Helia now. He was no longer the childless single dude who could go off on random adventures.

Besides, he still trusted his uncle would get past things and move on for real. Anyway, it wasn’t like he himself would go out while his daughter was still a baby. Life was so long and his adventure—ideally with his wife—could wait.

"Thanks for the offer but I’ll pass," he said, then lifted his head to grin at them. "But we would love to visit your place someday." Experience tales at freewebnovel

Of course, while there were aborigines from far and wide, there were also People from Ferrol who were their most common tourists. At least… until the pre-upgrade Blockage, in which case the visitors were definitely limited and trimmed down.
