Ah, how good it felt to work. You could get up and do something productive with your life as a mage, every now and then, and earn some money. To be fair, Vargas had not expected that it would take him so little time to get job contracts after entering Fiore, but it seemed like mages were in the need. While his previous work had involved him delivering a love letter, which Vargas had found a bit stupid, this was something worth the hassle. Apparently, there was someone named Jacob Goodnight working in the repairings in Hargeon Port. A former miner, which meant that his physique was way above what was ordinary.
Supposedly, the aforementioned man had been commiting murder, but last time he had messed up and confirmed the town's guard suspicions, which was why they had set out to hire someone to put an end to his actions. Of course, who else would be more fitting for that task than Vargas, who had a debt to repay with the Port?
-"Hm. If I were a three hundred pounds mole, where would I hide?"
