From Hardy's perspective, he thought the job would be tough because he thought the mastermind behind the incident was The Orin Kingdom. Fighting a kingdom with just eighteen adventurers was tough, but not impossible with the line-up. That was why he agreed with the request.
However, he did not expect that the cause of the Adventurer Guild's issue was just one single man. On top of that, the man came to find him which made his work easier. He did not mean to underestimate the man in front of him.
The man in front of him could take down six Adventurer Guild branches along with six The Harmony Temples. That was an impressive feat, but not enough to deter him who thought that his team also could bring down a kingdom.
"For you guys who were forced to be his slave! I will free you all from him, my fellow adventurers!" Hardy declared with his hand raised up in the air, "You just need to do one thing, doing nothing. I will kill him, and you will be free from him!"
