Chapter 786: Dark Guild Acts!

?

Traveling with Sophie on her shoulder, Kelly was taking her usual path to the world below. The path involved a series of twists and turns, and even her entering a few convenience stores to buy a few items.

These were instructions set by Harvey. He had told her to do this just in case anyone was following her and had even given her pointers to track if anyone was tailing her or not.

Some might think it was overcautious, but they were living in a world of Alterian where if one was caught knowing Dark Magic, they were to be executed on the spot.

Not just the person, but nearly everyone related to them as well. It was the one saving grace for Kelly and many others who delved into Dark Magic that they had no one to begin with.

"You didn't see anyone, did you?" Kelly asked as she pulled out a large brick from the wall and saw the black hooded uniform.

"Mewow, meow," Sophie said as she continued to use her sharp eyes, scanning the area.

After changing her clothing, it was time to head below, early and not on the usual day she would have done so.

As she descended the long ladder, she couldn't help but start thinking about what this meeting would ultimately be about.

The mention of the Glory Guild had her worried. Since joining the Dark Guild, and even before it was named that, they had never done large-scale attacks on any Guild.

It had always been about finding other members and trying to work together, but the force of the Dark Guild was never enough.

Now they had a cat and a Dark Spirit that only arrived half the time when he said he would. Not much had changed, and certainly not enough to go against a big Guild like the Glory Guild. The Glory Guild was a guild that operated directly under Enaxx, one of the Grand Magus. It was fairly new compared to the other guilds under the Grand Magus.

For one, it only existed after the Grand Magus's creation. Everyone had a group apart from Enaxx, so he formed his own Guild.

Strong mages flocked to it because it was an honor and privilege to be part of a guild created by one of the Grand Magus.

The Glory Guild focused on doing righteous deeds. They saw themselves as the police force for the other guilds.

If there were disputes between mages, if there were problems the police force couldn't get to in time, the Glory Guild would be there first.

It was a guild that also purely operated on donations, and it had plenty to keep operating, especially with their large numbers.

Regardless of new or old, because of these things, there were several types of mages in the guild. Strong mages wanted to prove themselves by being under one of the best.

Others were mages that were righteous and believed they were doing the right thing.

'But it's all just a big PR stunt, just like everything Enaxx does. He's the figurehead for the Grand Magus, so what better way to make them look better in the public eye than to have a guild that does things for glory?' It made Kelly sick every time she thought about what had happened to her family.

Still, regardless of her hatred, it was not the type of guild to mess with-not at the small stage they were at, and with how few people they had, it was practically a suicide mission.

Maybe before, she would have been willing to do anything for the sake of the Dark Guild, and she still was willing to do a lot, but the words of the Dark Spirit lingered in her mind.

Arriving at the usual place, the torn-down building, she looked ahead and saw that Harvey was there early this time, practically pacing back and forth.

"You made it; any quicker and I would have thought this was an emergency," Harvey said.

"Sorry, I was doing what you taught me, to stay out of sight," Kelly replied, not wishing to get snarky with the person in front of her.

Although Kelly was considered talented for her age, there was one thing she was always very clear about, and that was this person was stronger than her.

"The cat can do magic now?" Harvey asked.

"Yes, I don't know what star level, but she seems capable of producing high-level spells. However, due to her size, the mana core is small, so she can't do a lot of spells."

Harvey nodded as he heard this.

"That might come in handy in more ways than one. In some cases, she might be the perfect disguise. You, Sophie, correct? It seems you might play a key part in all of this," Harvey claimed.

"Wait, was your message before serious? Are you really thinking of going up against the Glory Guild?" Kelly asked.

The response from Harvey was to pull out his phone, and as he did, it was an article-an article about the death of a famous TV host named Ashley.

"I'm sure you've heard the rumors that the most likely suspect is Enaxx, and I believe it as well. The issue is, I have no clue how he was able to do it," Harvey answered.

"Our task is to get as much information on the Grand Magus as possible, in order to help that Dark Spirit. I believe there's something up with Enaxx."

"And the answer will lie in his guild. Now, we can't just go for any low-hanging member. This information will only be kept secret with some of his higher-ups."

Going through his phone, Harvey then pulled up another file.

A man with a square-looking face and a clean-cut brown beard. Not only did it have his image and information about his involvement with Glory Guild, but it also had his star ranking-a

6-star mage.

"All of us in the Dark Guild will work to take this man down, and we need him alive. I will do whatever it takes to get my answer," Harvey exclaimed.
