Chapter 70 Conspiring


    [Ding....


    Compiling...analyzing...


    ]


    Inside of Leon''s head, an announcement resounded as the systems interface ran some data.


    They were currently in an open head restaurant, the type used for the faceless mercenarypany''s test. Leon, who was cloaked with a ck robe as the practice of all faceless mercenarypany members. had a book in front of him that read.


    A Rank mission: Request for protection on equipment delivery.


    This was the Mission given to Leon by Half-moon, it contained the Mission details and several other tips like the clients'' name, personality and a general overview of what was needed. But Leon had the system run its one analysis so he could get a better view on what this was.


    [Ding!!!!


    The system haspleted analysis....


    Results:


    Peri, otherwise known as evil peri, the current head of the Jade tools miningpany of Duan city, has requested a special unit be posted to her on her yearly visits to herte husband''s family, the kentow family''s household in the North of Duan city.


    Caution: there appears to be a fued between the kentow family and the client. Establishing a good guard team with trusted Allies is very important for this to work.


    Also....


    ]


    The system made quick work of the document in front of him and gave him appropriate measures and strategies to take any problems they might face head on.


    "Hmmm, it''s good, huh?" Leon looked across the table at Ember, who was chopping down grilled meat and rice balls.


    "Uh huh" she nodded subconsciously for a brief moment, then suddenly she remembered that Leon was the one who spoke.


    "Don''t talk down to me, you''re not a grown up" Ember pointed her chickenp at Leon and scolded him, causing Leon to be dumbfounded for a second.


    She was right, Leon right now was merely a 16-year-old....so technically they were the same age. Of course, the difference in their maturity was likeparing a puddle of water to an ocean.


    Leon''s soul was thousands of years old.


    "Enjoy your meal, kid" Leon left a snide remark while staring down Ember. This, of course, was meant to piss her off and so it did, she immediately blew her top.


    Meanwhile, on her forehead, Leon quietly stared at a window...


    "The reincarnation of Saint firestone, huh? I wonder"


    Central of Duan city. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    Dalriss family household.


    In a dark castle building, inside a throne room setting.


    A man in long ck robes could be seen kneeling in the middle of the room. He was bloody all over, but this blood didn''t seem to be from the cuts of a de. It looked like he was punched so hard that he had started to bleed from his pores.


    It was an rming scene.


    "Fucking Retard!!, I want to y you and hang you by your tongue.....if not that we are family, you be deader than Dead right now.!!!" At the helm of the room, an aged man with eyes akin to an exploding supernova sat with rage in his facial expression.


    In one mission, he had lost two of his bastard children. Even though he never really cared for their talents and hid their identities until now, they were still his kids.


    He couldn''t stand the thought of them dying, especially on the watch of his little brother. He was infuriated.


    Furthermore, he was a marquee of this great kingdom and one of its protectors.....how could this happen to him???


    "I am certain Anan isn''t dead....." The bruised and beaten man struggled but eventually said.


    "And how do you know that, ric? How the hell do you know that?!!!" The man on the throne bellowed at ric. Of course, he knew that his bastard son Anan was alive. He had the tools to find out, but then he wouldn''t have an excuse to punish ric if he showed this.


    After all, the only person he put under ric''s protection was Anan, and if he wasn''t dead, he would have to give him a chance to redeem himself.


    "I....." ric gashed his teeth….his brother knew that Anan was still alive, but still wanted to punish him.


    "Father, if there''s a chance that Anan is alive, I think we should do something to make sure…." right beside the throne, a young man with simr eyes to the marquee spoke.


    "Hm? Like what?" The marquee asked. This was his beloved son Lucian. He was actually his only legal son byw and his true heir. Unless he was killed by his other brothers, he would inherit the family fortune.


    "This was done by the child of the disgraced knight, right? There''s only one way to get her, we need to capture or at least corner him. Then she will definitely show up with her aplices, then we will get them" Lucian exined.


    If they could corner Arian''s dad, then it would be smooth sailing from there, with her new-found power, she would certainly make the mistake of marching to his rescue, there, and then they would capture her and get info about Anan.


    "Hmmmm, this is not a bad idea!!! Yes, let''s do it like that!!!" The marquee stood up in excitement. On his face was a wicked and sadistic smile.


    "ric, you''ve failed me once, so I won''t give you the opportunity to do so again. But I will give you the opportunity to redeem yourself, from now on, you will be under my son Lucian. Make sure you follow hismands to the letter." The marquee paused before looking around the hall.


    "I do not want to see your face until you''ve captured the disgraced knight" the marquee decreed.


    This stunned the entire crowd.


    Capture the disgraced knight? Was that even possible? Wasn''t the disgraced knight a level 4 mage? Could the marquee himself capture the knight if he wanted to? How was he expecting ric to seed?


    Soon enough, this decree spread like wildfire. The marquee Cane had decreed for a citywide manhunt for a level 4 mage. This was absurd even to theyman.


    And to those who knew the gap between those levels, they could only stare andugh, while still paying close attention to the development.


    ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,


    Eastern Duan city.


    Market area.


    Three faceless men stood in an alleyway in the market observing a store right in the middle of the marketce.


    This store was huge and eclipsed most of the stores in its surroundings. It even had its ownpound.


    "We''re sneaking in? Isn''t that uncalled-for?" Arian asked Leon from the side.


    "Hehe, it''s just to show howcking her security is" Leon responded with an evil smirk behind his mask
