Dusk.
Rozen returned to Tolbana with the Rainbow Butterfly and met up with Argo in the shabby bar.
"… … Something like that actually happened?"
After hearing the whole story from Rozen, Argo smiled bitterly and sincerely apologized to Rozen.
"I'm sorry, it was my oversight."
It was indeed Argo's oversight.
As the client and the information broker, Argo should have collected the information about the Orange Rapier users and told Rozen about it. This would prevent Rozen from being confused about the identity of the two rapier users and Rozen from being attacked or misunderstood as Yasna. However, Argo didn't pass on the necessary information in time, which was a big responsibility.
Fortunately, Rozen was fine, and even more so, Yasna was fine. Otherwise, Argo would have committed a great sin.
But she couldn't be blamed.
"The meeting for the Floor Boss raid is going to be held soon. In order to gather enough manpower, you must have been running around everywhere and couldn't collect the necessary information in time. There's nothing you can do about it, so let's forget about it this time."
Rozen didn't mind and said.
"However, the news of the Orange Rapier users attacking players in the labyrinth area has already spread among the frontline players. You have to be responsible for telling them about it."
If she didn't tell them about it, Yasna might still be treated as a criminal.
Although there were players who personally witnessed the truth, there were still a lot of people who didn't fully believe it, so Rozen could only leave this part to Argo.
A person who was good at collecting information should also be good at spreading information and controlling information.
Therefore, Argo's words should be able to reveal the truth to the public and clear Yasna's name, right?
"That's not a problem. Since it was my oversight and you helped me, I'll do it for free."
Argo nodded his head as if it was his duty to do so.
"In addition, I will also be responsible for getting in touch with the female player and telling her how to clear her name."
Her name could also be cleared.
As long as he completed a specific charity mission, his Orange Name would be erased.
However, the more serious the crime, the longer and more difficult the quest would be. Moreover, this type of quest was a process for players to atone for their crimes. In other words, players would need to make amends for their mistakes. Not only would there be no reward for completing this quest, but there would also be no EXP reward.
If it was during the closed beta, players might sacrifice time and benefits to complete quests.
But now that the game of death had turned into a game of death, those who committed crimes for their own interests and selfish desires and thus became orange players wouldn't want to do such a dangerous mission, would they?
Of course, it would be a different story if the crime was very light. Although there would still be no reward, the difficulty of the quest would be relatively lower. For players who wanted to enter the circle, it should be worth it.
Yasna's name was orange because she accidentally attacked a player, and she didn't do anything to make her crime worse, so it should be easy to clear her name.
As long as Argo told Yasna about the trigger points to clear her name, he should be able to see Yasna in the strategy meeting three days later, right?
"That's also a free service?"
Argo was surprisingly open-minded for once, which made Rozen roll his eyes.
"Alright, I've done what you asked me to do," said Rozen to Argo, "Don't forget, you owe me a favor."
"You're so stingy …" Argo was a little dissatisfied, "Since I've helped you for free, how about you help me as well?"
"Don't even think about it," said Rozen mercilessly, "Who doesn't know that you're a profiteer?"
If he really helped the Argo for free no matter what, he would definitely be used by the cunning rat.
Not to mention …
"You've gotten so much information about the closed beta from me, and I haven't even settled the score with you yet. It's already good enough that I'm able to help you."
Said Rozen.
Including the method to train tamed monsters, Rozen had already leaked valuable information about the closed beta to Argo many times.
It wasn't that Rozen was careless, but Rozen knew that Argo didn't just take the information away to sell, so he didn't guard against her, which led to a lot of information being leaked.
Therefore, it was necessary to be calculative.
"Alright." Argo shrugged and said, "I'll provide you with the latest information for free next time."
"That's more like it." Rozen nodded in satisfaction.
Because he valued Argo's ability to collect information, Rozan Can was willing to help her.
After all, in order to level up, train Rainbow Butterfly, and complete all kinds of quests, plus practicing Eye of the Mind, Rozen didn't have much time to collect information.
For this reason, having an excellent information broker was also a good thing for Rozen.
Other than that …
"I also have a favor to ask of you."
Rozen took out a piece of parchment from his waist pouch.
"Help me find these people on the list."
Rozen handed the parchment to Argo.
"Find people?"
Argo was slightly startled at first, but when she saw the names written on the parchment, she immediately narrowed her eyes.
"Zhenzhen, you …"
Argo looked at Rozen, and the look in her eyes began to change.
The path became extremely dangerous.
Rozen continued to speak as if he didn't see it.
"With your ability, you should be able to find these people, right?" Rozen said: "Help me tell them that they can contact me at any time."
"… If that's the case, I'll do it for you." Argo was silent for a while, then nodded helplessly and said: "You should've been planning to do this for a long time, right?"
"Well, I'm not a person who likes to sit back and do nothing." Rozen smiled and said: "If you didn't suddenly bring me information about the strategy meeting, I wouldn't have the time to help you."
"I really don't know if I should say that I'm relieved or afraid." Argo grinned: "But, I'm relieved."
Not only would Argo not object to what Rozen wanted to do, but he would also support it with both hands.
Thinking back to the rumors about Rozen during the closed beta, Argo suddenly felt that the Floor Boss raid might be unexpectedly smooth.
"Oh right."
Argo seemed to have remembered something and said.
"About the matter I mentioned to you last time, I want to ask you, is there still room for negotiation?"
Argo was probably referring to the matter of someone wanting to buy weapons and tamed monsters from Rozen, right?
"The other party said that the price can be negotiated."
Argo said.
"What?" Rozen was surprised: "The other party still hasn't given up?"
"You're quite persistent." Argo raised a finger and said: "If it really doesn't work, the other party also said that at least half of the transaction is fine."
