Primordial Soul's Rebirth

Special gates are rare to find, but they bring a lot of profits.

Yeah, they are not free of danger, rather they are more dangerous than any other gate, but that is the case for high-rank gates.

The world knows of low-ranked special gates as well.

Although the profit from those gates is lower than the high-ranked gate, they are still much more profitable than the normal gates.

Many special gates with a rank of F, E, D, and C are found and cleared all over the world.

If it is an S-ranked special gate, then the raiders would think 100 times before entering it, after all, no one would want to jump to their deaths.

But it was different for low-ranking gates.

If it is an F-ranked special gate, then the maximum power its special boss could have will be D-rank.

It is the same for the other gates as well, the maximum rank of any monster inside the gates that had a rank lower than S was S-rank, including the special gates.

Even if we take an A-rank special gate for example, then the maximum it could have is a peak S-rank Boss.

A single S-rank beast was not something 2 or 3 S-rank raiders would not be able to take care of, so these gates were seen as easy profits.

But as you know, there are always exceptions.

One such exception was an E-rank gate called Goblin Village.

It was first found out to be a special gate after a party consisting of 3 C-ranked raiders and a group of newbie raiders with ranks ranging from F to D never came out of the gate after entering.

A single C-ranker was enough to clear a special E-ranked gate, but the party consisting of 3 of them went missing inside the gate, not to mention that there were some F to D-rank raiders in that party as well.

Yes, missing. That's the term used when the bodies of the deceased are not found, and that's what happened here.

Their bodies were never found, but that was blamed on the goblins as they are flesh-eating species.

A scout team was sent inside to scout for clues about what happened to the team before and the guys returned with nothing.

The same team was sent again, but this time, same as before, they went missing. The higher-ups of the Green Country decided to send a team of some A-rank raiders to clear the gate.

The highest rank they could think for the boss monster of an E-rank gate was A-rank, that too was stretching it far.

They thought that A-ranked raiders would be enough to take care of those goblins, after all, they were just goblins, one of the weakest monsters.

But days passed without news from the A-ranked party, it was then that they realized the seriousness of that gate.

.......................................….

"How many S-rank Raiders did you say were devoured by that gate by now, again?" Alex asked as he looked out of the window of the airplane they were in.

"3 S-rank raiders, the first time it was a single S-ranked raider with a party of two A-rank and 3 B-rank.

The second time it was a party with 2 S-rank raiders and 5 A-ranked ones."

Ann replied as she looked at the notepad that had the information written on it.

"I see," Alex just nodded his head without looking back.

They were moving toward the Green Country as they had accepted the request of the Association of the Green Country.

...........................................

(The day of the Press Conference)

The same day Alice had the press conference, she got an official email from the Green Country's Raider Association head, Anna Gorg.

Alice checked the email and it was about a request to clear a gate.

"It's probably the E-ranked special gate that had devoured 3 S-rank raiders," Ann spoke after Alice told them about the email.

"So, should we accept it?" Alice asked, she didn't think it was going to be hard for them, after all, all of them were too strong to worry about anything below SSS rank.

"Yeah, and don't ask for much, say that 'we would like to help the world without asking much in return as although it was not our fault, we were partially to blame for the situation the world is facing right now.'

Also, add that 'we can't do much help financially so we will help the world in getting rid of the gates'."

Alex advised.

Alice just nodded her head but Ann spoke as she realized what Alex was trying to do.

"You want the word to spread so that we can get more gates to clear and you can gather more points..."

Alex smiled as he heard Ann's murmuring while Alice just had a face that said, 'Ah, there was a reason?'

After a while, Alice sent an email about accepting the Green Country's Raider Association's request along with the things Alex told her to say about the charges they would be taking, and in less than 5 minutes they got a video call on her official number.

"First of all I would like to thank you for accepting our request, Miss Alice," An aged voice was heard from the other side of the call as the connection was being formed.

"You don't need to thank me, I am just doing what I can do and what I want to do," Alice spoke with a light smile as she saw Anna Gorg's smiling face appear on her display.

"I can tell that you are not joking, but I still want to ask: are you sure?" Anna asked for confirmation.

"Yes, you don't need to worry about it," Alice spoke with the same smile.

Anna Gorg was a nice woman, she was loved by many people because of her gentle personality, and Alice liked her as well, so there was no reason not to smile at her.

"I see, I will try to spread the words about your 'heroic thoughts' as much as I can," Anna Gorg smiled but the smile on Alice's face was gone as she had her eyes wide open.

'How did she know?!' Alice was shocked, she hurriedly turned to Alex only to find him nodding at her with a smile.

That smile somehow calmed her down.

"You don't need to worry, I don't have any intention of going against your guild.

Even though I don't know why you guys wish to raid more gates, I will help you spread the word of your good deeds, so don't worry."

Anna was old, like 70 to 80 type old. She had seen the world and she knew what people could think, so she could somewhat guess what Alice wanted when she saw Alice's email.

But she didn't have a problem with that, after all, she was getting what she wanted, so she would give what Alice wanted, Win-Win for both.

"I see," Alice nodded and then continued the talk.

Ann was also worried for a second when she heard Anna's words, after all, no one likes it when their plans are seen through, but the same as Alice, Alex's smile calmed her down.

Alice and Anna talked for a bit about the gate and other stuff for a while after that they decided to cut the call.

It was time to clear another gate.
