"Stark, don't look so tense."
"Right? This is just a simple escort mission, it's easy money."
"He's not even going to a dangerous place, so I don't know why he's willing to pay this much. But since he's willing to spend, there's no reason for us not to take this money."
The adventurers that accepted this mission all looked carefree since they all thought that this would be an easy mission.
If I didn't have my doubts about the middle aged man, I would have thought the same.
After all, this was an escort mission that took a very easy route and there was no way that we would actually be in danger.
But I knew that this escort mission wasn't that simple.
The middle aged man had used the mind control spell, that was not a spell that just anyone could use. Only those that had specially trained in a certain kind of magic would be able to use this kind of power.
Or they would have to form a kind of contract with a certain being.
If I had to guess, it was most likely the latter…
