Transmigrated With A Resolution System

Chapter 245 Were You Seen?

Obsidian had his arms wide as he planned to join in the hug. "What the heck does this look like?"

He approached and joined in regardless of Lank's silent protest. If this was a way of feeling the friendly love, he wasn't going to miss a chance.

It was an awkward silence after they broke off and stared at the floor. None wanted to confront the other.

"So..." Nix spoke up first, feeling what Obsidian wanted to say was just as important as he portrayed it to be.

Obsidian taking the cue cleared his throat and his ears stood. "You're in danger."

Lank facepalmed at how direct his words were.

"Yeah, you already said that, any more detail?" Nix hurriedly brushed it off knowing there was more to just that statement or else he wouldn't Lank present.

They had no time to waste as it was roughly two days before they enact their plan. It was best to leave a lasting impression before leaving.

Ayanami was on the top list of this plan, she needed some lessons that would last a lifetime.

"We have no time, would you just speak?" Nix snapped.

Obsidian scratched the back of his head and nodded his head. "It's about the dragon scale I spoke of briefly."

Lank stared at the two in confusion, he was not present during the briefing yet he chose to speak in such a way?

"Back up!" Lank interjected, folding his arms as it looked more like him being in the dark was a regular occurrence.

"If you don't start spilling what you had explained I had missed, I swear I would make your lives miserable." He pointed accusing fingers and the two of them.

Obsidian chuckled at the empty threat, if it came from Nix, he would have been concerned but Lank was yet to evolve to his stage so there was no way it could be taken seriously.

Feeling it was right to explain, he recounted what he had gotten from Ayanami's pendant.

Lank burst out laughing, "the snake gets bitten by her venom, I see."

He looked to Obsidian and continued. "Who would have thought that you would be smart enough to come up with a sick plan! You got brawn and brains."

Obsidian felt proud of what he had done and nodded, not until he realized the meaning of what he had insinuated.

"Hey! Were you thinking I was all muscles and without knowledge?" He hissed.

Shaking his head, Lank raised his hand in his defense, he didn't realize that he had unintentionally stirred trouble.

"Now that's enough!" Nix let out an outburst of frustration. "Obsidian carry on with the discussion or I would lose my patience and you know what happens if I do."

Obsidian sweat dropped at his words and immediately proceeded to explain what that scale could do and his fears that it might lead to Nix.

"Are you sure it could be traced to me? There must be at least a hundred dragons and one should have the same scale as Raiken."

Obsidian shook his head, he wished that was the case, or it would have been averted except for the elixir.

What was of concern wasn't just the color of the scales by the hexagonal pattern of it. That he had a keen eye on when he had met Raiken for the first time.

"No dragon is alike, from the shade to its shape of scale and yours happened to be the exact match."

'Raiken, is this true?' Nix immediately consulted the owner.

<I had been listening to your trashy squabbles and owning up to that scale is like expressing an embarrassing moment>

Nix frowned as he couldn't understand what Raiken meant by those words, but what he could deduce was that it was indeed Raiken's.

That brought up another question–how did Mr. Zhao lay his hand on one from the feared dragon.

"Hold on a moment." He called Obsidian so he could stop for a while and he finalized with Raiken.

Obsidian's lips drew into a thin line after he was cut off.

He watched as Nix stared for a long while, and he could only guess it was because of his little discussion with his dragon.

Snapping out of the trance he had been so engaged in, Nix snapped his head back and had a nervous smile.

"What happened?" Lank was the first to come up to him, inquiring why he had such an expression.

Nix looked awkwardly to the side, "so..."

After that he said nothing which infuriated Lank, "for f*cks sake, could you just spill it?! I'm sure it shouldn't be embarrassing!"

"I am sorta the cause of the scale being in the possession of Mr. Zhao." Nix expressed.

"What!" Lank and Obsidian gasped in shock.

"But... but... how?!!" Lank questioned, pulling on his hair lightly.josei

"When I had set out to duel Raiken the second time, I had dealt enough damage to him and it turns out a scale was displaced."

<Roooaaarrr!!!> Raiken roared in rage when his secret of it being tamed was let out.

'It's just a normal occurrence that was bound to happen since I am in control of you, why are you making a fuss out of it?' Nix confronted.

<Easy for you, human!> Raiken snapped and refused to speak on it anymore, it was pointless.

Lank and Obsidian facepalmed, the story sounded like bullshit.

They let out a sigh, feeling relieved that was all that had happened, not until Lank let out a gasp as another question racked his thoughts.

"What now?" Nix said in exasperation and rolled his eyes. Being over-dramatic about something so simple was annoying, to say the least.

"What if you were seen?" He suggested.

"Cut the crap, if I was seen, it would have been all over the news already. That was even before I got into the academy."

Nix rubbed his chin as he thought about how he had gotten his hand on it and he could only point it out to the time Mr. Zhao must have made a deal with that creature–Zeen.

"It should probably have been within the time frame we were sent to the outlands, it was the same place I had made a slip." He deduced.

"Oh." Lank grimaced at how stupid he felt after that.

Now that they had found out about that, they turned their attention to the jar in Obsidian's hand. "What the heck is in that thing?"

Nix felt a force pull him towards the jar as his eyes glowed unconsciously.

"Nix, don't come any closer!" Obsidian yelled for him to stop in his tracks.
