The law of Fiction: Harem in the fiction world

Chapter 110 Ch 108: Taking The Bait [Pt1]

Bruce shuddered as he looked at Yohan's red eyes. They looked innocent at first but there was darkness mixed into their red depths.

This man was a far more dangerous enemy than Bruce had first thought him to be. And that display of magic had left Bruce's feelings in conflict as well. It had been far too powerful for a spell to be used without any conductor.

Yohan was proving himself to be a true 'conductor-less' human and that scared Bruce. Yohan's existence was a threat to Bruce's power for sure now. Bruce will have to get rid of him before other people knew about him.

And that was precisely why he had suggested this trip to the nearest sector with Yohan.

"Hey, how are we going to get past the security gate? Isn't there a checkpoint we have to through? It will scan our data, right?"

Yohan's question sounded innocent enough but Bruce quickly pushed his hand against Yohan's mouth. Luckily, no one heard Yohan's question and they were safe.

"Don't ask such controversial questions and just follow my lead. I have my ways to sneak us in. Think of it as a trade secret."

Bruce did not want Yohan to know of his secret techniques just yet. This man was too suspicious and would get out of his and if Bruce did not keep a hold of his leash.

So he repeated Yohan's words from before back at him. It was only fair for the youngster to taste his own medicine.

Yohan did not mind not being told anything by Bruce either. It was not like he needed to know how to get past the scanner anyway. He had his system and that was enough to get him anywhere he needed to be.

Yohan watched as Bruce did a fancy sign with his fingers and gestured for Yohan to step ahead. The scanner passed through him and the green light signed. With this, Yohan managed to enter the territory. And Bruce followed behind him.

The tall buildings and lack of natural light reminded Yohan of back home. It was so different from the greenery and open spaces of the outside. Both places felt like different worlds to him.

And the influence of the 'rules' was very strong in this sector. Yohan was not surprised to feel this change since he had felt it happen before.

"This way. I will take you to meet the person who created the location map for you. She's a great mage and will help you out in the future. She will also be the one you will be staying with for the time being."

Now Yohan was interested in their conversation. He had expected to stay with Bruce for the duration of his journey in this sector but it seemed like it would not be the case.

And as if hearing his complaint, Bruce immediately opened his mouth to offer classification for his actions.

"I don't think of you as a burden but I cannot help but feel like I am a burden to you instead. That is why I want to help you out. Think of it as an investment from my side."

Yohan did get that the man was trying to draw a line with him so he let him take that initiative. After all, it was no skin off his back and he was even going to meet someone who might turn out to be a good investment.

The person who created the location map had true skills and Yohan wanted to try and pouch them to his side.

The further ahead they went, the darker the area around them got. The place they were in might have been a 'sector' in name but it was not one in spirit. This place was opposite the one Yohan had visited before.

However, even before they had entered their desired building, they were stopped on their way. The man who had stopped them had a bulky frame but there was a mechanical sound every time he moved his arm.

"Sorry, I cannot allow ya entry if you do not identify yourself. Boss doesn't have the time to meet with useless people. No identification = no meeting."

The man held his arms out to stop them from entering. His loud and rough voice caused people to look over them in an instant. Hushed whispers followed the duo and everyone looked at them with curious eyes.

Yohan stood proudly in his place, not at all intimidated by all the looks he was getting. And neither was Bruce since.

"Sid, don't joke around. You know who I am so let us in now. I don't want this conflict to erupt into a fight."

Sid's brows were pulled into an angry frown and Yohan could tell that he was ready to tear Bruce a new one when a delicate hand reached out for Yohan from behind Sid.

"If a fight's what ya want then I will give ya one. Hey, ya stay in and don't come out. Did ya forgat what I told ya to do?"

Sid looked startled as soon as the tanned arm touched Yohan and he was yanked inside the building by a powerful person. The arm might have looked delicate but the person behind that arm was anything but delicate.

The woman looked to be quite strong when she met Yohan's eyes. A lone bangle shined on her arm and the glimmer caught Yohan's attention.

He could feel a powerful magical force collecting in that magical bracelet on the woman's arm but he was also cautious of her.

"I asked ya to behave yourself, Diantha. What would ya do if someone happened to recognize ya? The rebels would be done for."

Sid quickly pushed the door open and entered the room as well. He gave Yohan the most loathsome look he could but he luckily did not pick a fight with him. Sid was lucky that he did not agitate Yohan much or he would not have been able to even stand.

All of Sid's attention was focused on Diantha so he missed it when Bruce entered the room and quickly passed him.

"Diantha, how is it going? Anyway, here is the person I wanted you to meet. Do you think he's the one you saw in your vision?"

Bruce continued walking till he was standing on the other side of Diantha. It was also now that Yohan paid attention to the woman who had dragged him into the room.

Silver hair and blue eyes were the dominant features on that dark-skinned face. She was a beauty through and through with a well-proportioned body. And her hands had been soft when they had dragged Yohan inside.

But the biggest thing Yohan had noticed was that her scent seemed to be interested in him. And the presence of a foreign energy inside her body.

Had it not been for this technologically advanced world, Yohan would have thought that she was crushed by some kind of energy. But surely that was not the case and he was overthinking things.

"Bruce, get out of here now. Get out and take Sid with you. My guest and I have to *talk* about something important."

"Huh? What do you mean - Diantha, seriously? But you both just met for the first time today and-"

Diantha kept her smile on her face but Bruce could feel the danger in her smile. He quickly took a few steps back and got out of the door. He also took Sid with him and then there were two left in the room.
