Primordial Soul's Rebirth

Chapter 57: CHAPTER 57 – Change of plans?

Luna Tuner is one of the strongest Raiders in the world, and it is not just empty words as she really is one of the strongest.

A normal S-rank raider can come out unscathed even if they are standing right in front of an exploding grenade. The stronger ones can do the same in larger explosions and Luna was in the stronger category.

But still, when the explosion below the stage was about to happen, her senses started tingling and she felt a premonition.

Just like any other Raider, she also trusted her senses as they always help in battle, so, listening to her senses she moved at the fastest speed she could and jumped off the stage, narrowly escaping the center of the blast.

However, she was still left perplexed, she was not confused about what was happening, she was not dumb enough to not understand that, she was confused as to why it was happening.

There had been many great treasures Auctioned before but there has yet to be a robbery of the Auctions final item, that too in front of so many raiders.

She knew that an incomplete mana core was unique and it might not be found again, but did someone think that it was worth the risk of having the Association on their tail ready to catch them?

How could she have known that it was just the plot trying to mend itself? When there is a protagonist, there are going to be challenges and this was one of the challenges Alex had to face.

When a protagonist is in the equation, things never go as they are supposed to, that is what was happening.

The next second, however, Luna saw a flash pass by and she knew that it was someone very strong. Alex's face flashed in front of her eyes for a second, but then she shook her head as she saw who it was.

She could see the culprits that were trying to steal the mana core and she could also tell that they were neither inexperienced nor weak.

She turned towards Argon; the person hailed as the strongest raider on Gaia. He was the one who passed like a flash in front of her when she was still in her thoughts.

She wanted to ask for his help as she knew she would not be able to defeat her enemies if she fought alone, there was a chance that she might die as well.

But when she turned towards Argon, she was surprised and shocked as she found him looking at the people in front of him with a disbelieving look while muttering something.

What she was shocked about, however, was not that. She was shocked as she could see fear deep within Argon's eyes and it was not just her as Alex arrived right on time to see that.

Alex didn't need to look deep into Argon's eyes to tell that Argon was scared, he could tell it just by looking at the way Argon's body trembled a bit from time to time.

"This is not possible…."

"They should still be sealed right now…..."

"I am not ready for them…..."

Alex could hear Argon's muttering and he could tell that whatever Argon was muttering about had something to do with the future Argon knew of.

"If it's them, then I can't let them get away…" Suddenly, as if remembering something, Argon's aura changed and he became serious.

Luna, although curious as to why Argon had that reaction, decided to ignore it as she needed to get the mana core back or the Association was going to face a huge loss.

The problem that worried her the most among the list of problems was Monarch as she didn't know what his reaction would be when he heard that his item got stolen right under the Association's nose.

She knew that the Association was strong, no, it was very strong, but she just didn't want to see what would happen if they were to face Monarch.

"I would like to request assistance from you, sir." Luna voiced out without looking away from her enemies, though she failed to notice one of them had suddenly disappeared.

But the same can't be said for Argon as he saw one guy running towards the hole with a bag in his hands.

"All right," He also spoke without looking away from the guy who was running away and it seemed like Luna somehow wasn't able to see him.

Luna nodded her head and then waved her hand once. The next second there was a whip-like sword in her hand which was now hanging down.

"I will take care of the guys in the back," Argon spoke but he didn't reveal that he was going to take care of the guy running away from the Auction Hall.

Luna nodded her head as if accepting Argon's words and looked back toward compartment two for a second before she rushed towards the guy closest to her only to get flanked by two other guys.

Now she had to deal with three guys at the same time, leaving her no space to catch her breath.

There were 7 guys in total, including the one who was running away, and Luna had to take care of 3 guys. The other 3 ran towards Argon, not to defeat him, but to delay him and they were going to do whatever they could just to delay Argon and give the last member of their team to run away.

They knew that they would not be able to defeat Argon as they knew their limits, but that didn't mean they would not be able to delay Argon if they put their life on the line, after all, they were also S-rankers.

Yes, you heard it right, they were all S-rankers, that was the reason Alex could tell that they came prepared.

Now where was Alex? He was actually contemplating the ways how he could generate more profit out of the situation. Suddenly his eyes lit up as he thought of something, and he turned towards the thief who was about to jump back in the hole.

Alex could tell that Argon was thinking of going after that thief and stealing the Mana core inside the cave as there would be no one to look at him there just by looking at Argon who was looking towards the same guy from time to time.

So, the next second Alex moved. Alex had decided to change the plans a bit and the plan now would only yield him profit without a chance of bringing him a loss.

..............................................

Argon kept looking at them and he was thinking of doing just what Alex had guessed. It was not hard for him to knock these guys out quickly and run towards the last guy because as was said before, the difference between every rank after A is very large.

But as he kept looking at the guy, suddenly the guy vanished like he was never there. Not like before when no one could see him, but Argon could. However, right now, even Argon couldn't find a trace of that guy.

Argon hurriedly pushed the three people in front of him and thought of running toward the last guy.

However, how can things be this easy?

As if they were talking telepathically, all of the six guys, even the ones fighting Luna, who surprisingly was still fighting even though she had many cuts on her body nodded their heads.

Argon had a bad feeling just as he turned around, he saw that all six guys took out a capsule-like thing from their pockets and swallowed it, and the next second...

*BBOOOOMMMM* X5

////// Author Note: Before some of you ask – Why were there only 7 people attacking when they knew that there were way too many raiders in the hall?

To answer that, they had a quick task which was to pick and run, so even if every S-rank raider were to attack they would just jump into the cave they came from and make the walls collapse so that they could run away.

If worse were to happen they would just blast themselves like they did right now and believe me, you would NOT want to be there when an S-rank raider forcefully blasts his body, not to mention 6 raiders doing it together.

That's all! //////
