The man left the commoner district in stealth. Before he left, he gave the man some few coins who told him everything.
The man headed to the king while looking for other information.
In the commoner district, a sickness has been spreading around the district. People don't know where the disease or curse came from but it was beginning to affect everyone.
The people started calling it "The Slow Rot".
It seems the nobles haven't noticed it yet or they're just disregarding it. Lot of people died from The Slow Rot.
The man appeared in the King's Office, kneeling and bowing.
"Your Majesty."
The king looked at him and said "What did you find Jareth?".
It appears the man's name is Jareth.
Jareth began to explain all the information he found in the Commoner District and especially about the missing people.
The king asked Jareth, "Does anyone know who the one experimenting on Humans is?"
"No, Your Majesty."
"Did they say the Slow Rot has a cure?"
"No, Your Majesty. It looks like no cure has been found. It appears that The Slow Rot appeared after the bodies returned without the heart or brain Your Majesty."
"Oh, so people who were near there bodies, got affect."
"Yes and No. There were few people who got affect and some were not affected. There person who was first discovered with it, wasn't near there bodies."
"So you're telling me, there bodies might not be the cause?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Does The Slow Rot come from water in the area?"
"No your majesty. People still drink water but they're not affected by it."
"Okay. Now I don't understand. Alright Jareth, You can leave and get some rest. Don't forget about your task tomorrow."
"Yes your majesty."
Jareth left there place but didn't head to his home.

After Jareth gave the man 10 silver coins, the man who gave him information about the district and left.
The man looked at the money and one corner of the mouth lifts, eyes stay cold. The man almost chuckled to himself, ALMOST.
The man walked few steps before he threw those coins away.
A person saw the man throwing coins away and immediately went to pick them up before someone spots him. He left in hurry.
The man saw the boy picking up the coins and leaving in hurry.
"What gullible creatures." The man said as he kept walking.
The man walked in the alley and disappeared leaving no trace.

Jareth headed to the inn.
The second he stepped inside the inn, he spotted a man wearing brown leather jacket with a sigil of its back and eating.
Jareth looked at the sigil for a second and headed to the corner on the inn.
He remembered what the guards said and thought 'A Sun and A Sword in the middle.'
Jareth realise that the man with the brown leather jacket is the one he was supposed to investigate.
'What A Guess. I did right by looking at the inn first.'
Jareth looked at Zain. Zain looked at where Jareth was sitting for few seconds before he shrugged his shoulders and continueed eating.
Jareth thought to himself,'Did he sense me? Nah that's impossible.'
It looks like everyone thought Zain was a noble including Jareth. Zain finished eating,paid his meal with 1 gold coin and headed to his room.
Jareth saw Zain pay with gold coin and was slightly surprised. Jareth stealth went to Zain's room and saw him sleeping. He left the room after looking at him for few seconds.
Zain opened his eyes the second Jareth left the room.
'Weird' Zain thought to himself before he slept.
The next morning, Jareth woke up early to check on the man from last night.
Jareth spotted Zain talking to May. Apparently his name is Lucas and he didn't know what year is.
Jareth waited until Zain left the room. There were people who were waiting for him. It looks like they thought he was rich last night and wanted to rob him.
Lucas is just ignoring them and keep going forward. He's headed to the Adventures Guild.
The group got angry at Lucas and he just asked if he could help them.
*Regal Force*
Jareth fell unconscious without knowing what hit him.
When he woke up, Lucas was already gone. Jareth looked around and found out few people on the block were sleeping on the streets.
'That was an attack, right?' Jareth thought to himself.
Jareth decided to head to the adventures guild. He saw the guildmaster giving Lucas a reward. There was a bunch of kids in there Adventures Guild.
'Wait. That's Brad The Rapid. How long was I out.' Jareth looked shocked as he thought to himself.
Jareth watch as Brad looked scared and afraid when he looked at Lucas. He watch as Brad turn himself in after he made eye contact with Lucas.
The children wanted to follow Lucas but Lucas turned them down. The children wanted Lucas to accept them. Jareth heard something.
'He can Teleport.'
Lucas left the guild and was headed to look for a house. It looks like he doesn't know he's being followed.
Jareth followed Lucas until he entered the building. Jareth didn't want to blow his cover so he waited nearby.
He spotted Lucas leaving the shop and entered after him. Jareth said to the woman.
"Tell me what he wanted," Jareth demanded.
The woman jumped back, startled.
"Who… who are you? What do you want?" she asked, her voice trembling.
"No question, Just Answer what I want to know." Jareth said in a serious voice.
"He... He just want... wanted to buy a house." She said trembling.
"A house? You Aren't Lying Right?"
"No I'm telling the truth." She said.
Jareth remember something about the person who looked like the woman infront of him. The person doesn't sell houses and her name is Isolde D$&πv=÷.
"Why Would He Want to Buy a House From You When You Don't Even Sell Houses?"
Iso became scared when she heard that.
"How do you know that?"
'I guess I was right' Jareth thought to himself
"Answer Me!"
"It's a Side Job I picked up okay"
"What Type Of House Did He Want?"
"He wanted a Mansion. A mansion as Big as a Noble House."
The Jareth began to think and left the building.
Iso was shocked when they disappeared infont is her.
Jareth headed straight to the king.
________
Jareth appeared in the castle garden. He kneeled in front of the king while the king was standing next to his knight.
"Your Majesty."
The king looked at him and continue to look at the garden.
Jareth began to explain everything that happened. He explained how he saw Lucas on the inn last night and how his day went. Jareth couldn't tell the king about Lucas's assessment and his quest because he didn't see it.
He told the king that Lucas is looking to buy a mansion. The king was surprised when he heard that.
"Maybe I can meet him sooner than I think."
The king said to himself and began to instruct Jareth about something.
