Job Requirements: Retrieve the huge crate of stolen Lacrima from the Desert Thieves Cartel HQ. 3 wizards maximum are allowed on this Mission / Job.

Job Location: Forgotten Desert

Job Description: A gigantic shipment of Lacrima that was supposed to reach Era days ago has been stolen by an organization calling themselves. "The Cartel", your client was one of the victims of this assault and describes them as brutal warriors, with both skill and determination. They do not quit, and will chase you if you flee. They will let you live, if you give them what they want. Otherwise, they are completely ruthless. They beset them on their journey through a nearby area, and retreated into the Desert upon accomplishing their goal. You set out from whichever town you accept this mission from and head there immediately. They wear white turbans that cover their head and mouths completely, are draped in all black desert robes, with white boots; which are quite dusty no doubt. The Cartel's HQ is built inside of the old ruins of a once great city; you can spot the ruins of the ancient city from a mile off, and see the white and black turban outfits of the Cartel from a distance. Although they may spot you as well at this distance.

Enemies:
Weak: Cartel Recruits (These guys are quite simple too deal with, and wield anything from a longsword, a scimitar, too a sword and shield. However they are inexperienced and not used too being in the desert as they're green too the Cartel. They go down in two hits of C-Ranked damage at the most, maybe even one. If you intimidate them well enough; they may just choose too re-think their decision too join the Cartel and flee from the desert base.

Normal: Cartel Swordsman x10 (These guys are skilled. They wield scimitars and great hammers. They're very nimble, and strike, move, and circle their opponents during the course of the fight through excellent footwork and quick attacks. They use smoke Lacrima and will attempt too use them a few times if they aren't taken out quickly. If hit with a smoke Lacrima you won't be able too see their next attack coming. Takes 3 hits of C-Ranked damage too take each one down. They sword slashes and great hammer strikes do C-Ranked damage.)

Strong: Cartel Wizards x5 (Now you're in trouble. The Cartel's Wizards are no joke. They use both Fire and Wind magic with incredible levels of skill. They will attempt too whim up dust storms, and shred you with wind as well. They are also quick too cast AOE fire spells that can turn the sand too glass in an instant; throwing it around through the air too slice. They wield steel bo-staff with black and white feathers tied too the top of them. Just because they're wizards doesn't mean they won't fight you in melee. They are in the Cartel after all. They wield their bo-staffs with all the skill of one who practices each day. Their Wind and Fire spells range from D-Ranked, to C-Ranked, to B-Ranked for the AOE fire spell. Takes 5 hits of C-Ranked damage too take each one down.)

Boss: The King of Theives (This individual...is deserving of the title. He wears the standard white turban of the Cartel, with their usual black robes and white boots. However he is draped in gold and jewelry. He himself is a wizard. His scimitars are made of an unknown alloy, and have golden runic writing etched through them. He uses Telekinesis too throw his scimitars through the air, whirling them and controlling them as they fly around and strike you like buzzsaws. He also can use his telekinesis too leap vast distances and may simply hit you with a wave of force too send you flying. He is one of the most skilled swordsman you've seen, and has will of one befitting his title. He takes 15 hits of C-Ranked damage too take down. His telekenisis waves do B-Ranked damage and his scimitar slashes do C-Ranked slashes. He rolls 4 attacks / telekinesis waves each round. Good luck, because he is NOT going to let some young wizard(s) take the gigantic room sized crate of Lacrima back too Era...not at all.)

(Note: You may persuade him too give you the Lacrima, if you're willing too part with 100k Jewels on the spot, if not, he's likely attacking you immediately if you're not an interested buyer. Since you've discovered the location of the Cartel's HQ.)

Reward: 7000 Jewels

It was not his first choicenof jobs, he hadn't been one for walking through scorching deserts, the sun beating down on him while then grainy sand irritated his skin. A gust of wind picked up and sand flew into his eyes. Ray rubbed at them vigorously until the watering of his eyes eventually washed out the small grains. As he blinked his eyes open, he saw someone wearing a white turban as well as a black cloak, one of the thieves.

The man spotted Ray and instantly dashed off into the desert, trying to lose the teenager before he took too much notice. A smirk spread on Rays face as he quickly began to sprint after the man.n it didn't seem like an advantageous situation, Ray was chasing a man with a sword through a desert that was home to him. While Ray himself was unarmed and had very limited knowledge on the Forgotten Desert, but Ray had something this man didn't. Well a few things, one of which was a paycheck that he wouldn't get unless he could catch the man.

Being guileless, Ray had managed to trick the client into thinking he was far more than capable of handling this situation, but really he wasn't so sure it would be easy. After all, from what he had heard there was a sizeable force that also contained wizards, not to mention the leader would be no easy task to defeat.

After awhile two other men joined in the chase, Ray fell back a bit to try and remain unnoticed. Unfortunately these new arrivals seemed likenthey were going to lose the thief. He sighed, well non wizards who weren't on a job, like he was, wouldn't be as motivated to catch him. Ray quickly ran after the man and drew closer to the other two men. Suddenly the turban wearing man whipped a sand storm to blind them. The masked man pulled out an umbrella and used it to block the sand, while Ray held out a finger and quickly began to scribble in the air.

His finger flew purple as letters began to form and float in the air, 'Barrier'. Within seconds an invisible wall formed before Ray and blocked the sand. As soon as thensand was gone Ray slashed a finger twice across the words and the barrier was gone, he tried to keep his magic unknown to people he didn't trust, and these two men hadn't earned his trust at all. He let out a sigh before turning to them, "You guys alright?" he called over to the strangers as his target was no longer present.

"Shit Marik, I can't turn into Sosha right now... I can't use my high speed magic." He Said as they both ran towards the man in front of him. Sogeki had used his spell not much ago, it wasn't easy to cast those type of spells. But before the man even escaped, another man got his attention. He was also chasing him, but was he in a legal guild? If he was, it could be a problem. But even if he was, Sogeki and Marik were more than capable of handling another mage. Sogeki lost his attention, and after a powerful sandstorm blinding him, the chased man dispensary in the middle of the huge dessert. "Shit, we almost got him." HE said before he heard the voice of the other man looking at them. Sogeki quickly touched MArik's shoulder and copied him. In only a second, they were exactly the same as each other. Two masked mages dressed in a black coat. "Who are you and what are you doing here?" Asked Sogeki seriously. He wanted to finish the job as fast as he could, it wasn't something fun to do, to run around the dessert chasing strange people, it wasn't even his problem.
