As Gavin gradually opens up to the player during the Event, it is revealed that his friend Rhys went missing after the robbery. Enlisting the help of Gavin's grandfather's friend and old trading partner Marl, Gavin learns that Rhys actually has joined the bandits that robbed the two of them.
When Gavin decides to confront Rhys about this with the player, Rhys nearly robs him with his bandit partners. Saddened by this, Gavin decides to do away with the The Secrets of the Commerce Champion and arranges for Marl to use his bandit contacts to give Rhys the book he thinks Rhys is after. Just as Marl is given the book by Gavin, two groups of bandits attack and it is revealed that Marl hired bandits to originally rob Gavin and Rhys of the book. Rhys learned this after he infiltrated the bandit society and realized that Marl's bandits were nowhere to be seen. The player, Rhys, and Rhys' bandit friends battle Marl and his bandits and win. The bandits promptly disown Rhys afterwards, in order to allow him to rejoin normal society and return to regular commerce with Gavin.
At the end of the Event, everyone discovers from Commerce Joe that the book was written about the Milletians that helped during the Champions of Commerce Event (2022) to set up Iria's commerce and that the author is none other than Commerce Joe himself.
