Chapter 399 399. Boros wants to recruit you into the Dark Order
"That Boros person is the leader, right?" Orion said, smiling. "Tell him to stop saying such bad things about geniuses. It caused me to become the most wanted criminal and whatnot. Tell him not to say anything about geniuses. I don't want anyone else to go through what I am going through just because a certain someone said some stupid things about geniuses."
The woman shook her head. "He wants to recruit you into the Dark Order," she said calmly.
"Huh?" Orion was shocked for a moment, realizing something. "Did you come here specifically for me? Did you know I would be here beforehand?" he asked, realizing something deeper.
"It's one of Boros's abilities," the woman said, smiling. "And he indeed sent us to recruit you."

"I see." Orion frowned, realizing that this Boros person was very mysterious. "But I don't want to join the Dark Order."
The woman said solemnly, "His orders were clear. Either you join willingly, or we will force you to join."
Just then, Orion felt something restricting his movement in the air. 'A telekinesis talent?' he thought before turning to the woman. "Why does Boros want to recruit me? You people want revenge, then go ahead and do it. It has nothing to do with me."
The woman frowned. She had asked the same question to Boros. She had asked why Orion had to be recruited into their ranks. Even though he had the potential to be the strongest, currently, he wouldn't contribute much to the Dark Order with his strength at the gold rank.
But the answer she got was a glare. She immediately flinched back from those dark, abyss-like eyes and didn't ask anymore before coming with Nick to complete what she was asked.
Though before leaving, Boros did say that if Orion didn't want to join, then forget about the matter.
What she said previously was just a lie to pressure Orion into joining the Dark Order.
"I don't know what Boros wants, and I don't care. His orders are absolute, so I will have to take you with me," the woman said resolutely.
Orion chuckled. "You think you can stop me?"
The woman frowned before almost crushing Orion into a small space in the air, not even allowing him to move or talk.
However, just at that moment, Orion disappeared and appeared behind her. "Even the Ten Seats failed to kill me. You think you're better than them?" he sneered and appeared in front of her just as she turned behind.
"Tell Boros that I don't want to join this stupid order of his," Orion said, teleporting randomly around her so fast that he appeared to have afterimages. "And also tell him that I will make sure to disrupt your plan and take great benefits from it. He has my gratitude."
With those words, he disappeared completely, nowhere to be seen around the woman and Nick.
"How does his teleportation work?" the woman frowned. "My telekinesis is a space-related talent that restricted the space around him, so he shouldn't have been able to teleport, but it didn't work on him at all."
"That guy is mad as ever," Nick shook his head. "We did what we were told. Let's leave now."
"But I don't understand why Boros wanted Orion to take away some of our men," the woman said, dissatisfied. "They might die, or should I say, they will be tortured to death if he takes them to the Archons."
Nick shrugged. "I don't think much about the tasks we're given. I just follow them, trusting that Boros definitely has something in mind."
"Well, I hope he indeed had something in mind when he told us to do this task," the woman said before taking Nick and disappearing into the sky.

Orion watched them disappear from his dimension, a frown on his face. He heard everything they talked about and from that, he realized that Boros actually wanted him to take away those men he had kidnapped in his dimension.
'Why? What does he want?' he pondered, thinking if he was being played by this Boros person.
'He did predict my location... So, everything I did was also predicted by him?' Orion frowned but shook his head. 'That should be impossible. Is he manipulating me into doing something he wants by letting me take these men?'
He thought hard about the situation but nothing came to mind. 'Forget it. Let's deal with these men first.'
Orion flew away from the construction site but didn't leave the area. He scouted the entire zone and found a good hiding spot inside a building. He went inside and trapped all the men he kidnapped in the walls of the building, but everything he did was within his dimension, so nothing was visible from the outside.
He then went towards the young man who had the paper. "How are you?"
The man couldn't speak because Orion had restricted their movements. "I forgot you can't say anything," Orion shook his head before touching the page imprint on his palm, and a paper floated in front of them. Orion touched the paper, and it imprinted on his palm.
The number on it increased from 3 to 4.
'Now what should I do about them?' Orion pondered before leaving for his room. He wanted to let others know about the war that might occur at any time, but at the same time, he doubted if it was the right decision.
'I guess whether I warn them or not, the war will happen. No one can stop it.'
He thought as he arrived at his dormitory, coming out of his dimension before heading inside. He had also changed his appearance back to Ray Wiser and acted like the other cadets.
Just then, he saw many middle-aged men and women checking the security cameras stored in the halls of the dormitory.
He ignored them quietly and moved toward his room, where he saw Mark waiting for him.
