373 Return of Zephyr
It was early in the next day's morning, and Asher opened his eyes.
When he woke up, he circulated the mana around his body, which looked fine.
The drug he took was something that weakened him temporarily, allowing him to get rid of the constant headaches he would feel.
He had used it in his previous life, but he had to use it again because of his condition tomorrow.
Asher turned his head as he looked at the phone and unlocked it. He found a few messages from Tom.
"So, it's done," Asher said out loud.
Finally, Tom had managed to take over the Security System of the World Academy, and now he could finally get out of the World Academy.
Without wasting time, Asher called Tom, who was speaking to two familiar guys.
"You wouldn't believe it, but it was so hard to find it," Dane said as he looked at Tom,
"So, these are the coordinates?" Tom asked for confirmation.
"Yes, but we couldn't go much closer," Kai replied.
"Without using my ability, it would be hard to go through the security they have there," Kai explained.
"What are they hiding that has more security than the damn vault of the Kalvas Gala," Dane muttered in frustration.
Tom was about to ask another thing when he saw that Asher was calling.
"Boss is calling; must be about that thing," Tom immediately accepted the call as Asher's face became visible, and he could see Tom clearly with Dane and Kai behind him.
"So their mission is complete?" Asher asked immediately, and both of them nodded back at him.
Asher turned his gaze towards Tom.
"You have the artifact now, right?" he asked.
"Yeah, but how do we deliver it to you boss?" Tom asked.
"If you can come out on leave, you can just take it from us," Tom suggested, but Asher had other plans.
"Don't worry, one of you will stand 10 KM away from the Raven Mansion in the north direction," Asher said, looking at Dane and Kai.
"Take the necklace with you and stay in your position. I will call to tell you what to do from there," Asher ordered as Dane looked at Kai.
"If it's the Raven House, I will go," Kai said,
"In the Northern Direction, there are Hunter Equipment Stores. You can wait at this one," Tom instantly picked out a location.
"And we will be going to Belvoria for a meeting, so get ready for it," Asher said as he disconnected the call.
"Eh?" Tom got confused.
"Wait, if Boss said 'we,' does it mean he is coming too?" Dane said out loud.
They had no idea what Asher would do to allow him to have the Rank SS Necklace in a single day, but they had no choice but to follow their orders.
"I guess you guys can rest later," Tom turned his chair and looked at Dane and Kai.
"It's fine. I am not that tired," Dane replied, and Kai nodded.
The mission was to find the location where the Pure Mana Crystals they traded with the Black Market ended up, so although it took a long time, they weren't too tired to rest.
Unlike normal people, Kai and Dane were harshly trained from a young age in Spyder to increase their endurance to keep fighting for a long time, unlike normal hunters.
Suddenly, Tom got a text from Asher that had all the details about things he needed to do.
"These seem a bit problematic," Tom looked at Asher's orders.
At the World Academy,
Asher was sitting in his room, and suddenly, he closed his eyes.
"Move 10 KM in the north," Asher muttered.
He felt the connection between him and Rifir.
At the Raven Family's Mansion,
Alfred was sitting in the library reading a book when a certain snake appeared behind him.
Due to Rifir's abilities, even the SSS Rank Hunters couldn't detect him until Rifir used his abilities or something that could unrest it happened.
When Alfred met with Asher, Asher made Rifir hide in Alfred's shadows and follow him.
He wanted to know if Alfred really suspected him or not, and he made Rifir follow and listen to Alfred's conversations.
Although Rifir wasn't good at speaking, he could memorize anything perfectly, similar to Asher.
Alfred turned the pages of the book as the Snake-like creature turned his head in a certain direction.
From the time Asher had hunted with Rifir in the great forest, he had tried making Rifir go to certain locations, and he was going to do the same this time.
Far from Raven Family's Mansion, the city was filled with empty streets, and only a few people could be seen moving because it was quite early in the morning.
It was somewhere around 3:30 AM in the morning when Kai arrived at Hunter Equipment Store, where only a single employee was available.
Due to Hunter's Schedule, such shops were open 24/7 to make sure Hunters could get the things they needed at all times.
Usually, C Rank Hunters or below would enter such shops because the quality of the items here was not that great.
"Welcome, Sir, do you need something?" The Male employee asked.
"I wanted a C Rank Equipment, possibly something that's new," Kai said as he adjusted his glasses.
"C Rank!" The employee was happy as he didn't expect to get a rich customer so early in the morning.
Because most Hunters worked in Guilds, it was rare for them to come to these shops unless they were from small guilds.
"Just wait a minute. I will get all the things you might need," The Employee smiled brightly as he went inside the room to pick out a few things.
Kai looked around as he took his time to look at the things.
'No wonder they say you can never hide from the Raven's eye,' Kai muttered as he felt a few people watching him.
He was suppressing his mana at B Rank, but a person like him visiting such a random shop made him look suspicious.
'Well, I can just reveal that I am with Young Master if things go wrong,' Kai thought in his head.
Even if things went wrong, it was the Raven Family, and Asher would probably help him.
Suddenly, Kai's phone rang as he tapped on his bracelet, and he was connected to Asher through the earpiece he was wearing.
"How many people are observing you?" Asher asked first.
Kai was surprised that Asher knew that he was being observed right now.
"Two," Kai muttered as he looked at a particular necklace that had two rings on it.
"Don't do anything. Go back to Tom and Dane in 5 minutes," Asher said as he disconnected the call.
"Looks fine," Kai said as he turned his head, and the employee was back.
After conversing with the employee for a minute, Kai didn't haggle over the prices as he paid for the equipment and entered the car he used to come here.
Suddenly, he felt the people following him were gone, and he soon arrived at the Mansion and went into Tom's room.
"Hey, you came back on time," Tom looked at Kai as he pointed at the table.
"Put the necklace there. The boss told me that's all we need to do," Tom said, making Kai frown, but he did as Tom told him.
Suddenly, Kai felt a chill down his spine as a Black Serpent-like creature appeared from his shadow and traveled towards the necklace.
'Is that the same beast?' Kai looked at the serpent that looked even more menacing than before.
Rifir opened his jaw as he swallowed the whole artifact, and his blood iris shined as he disappeared from the table.
"Is it done?" Kai asked Tom.
Tom waited for a few seconds before he got the reply from Asher.
"Seems like it," Tom replied, but both of them were equally shocked.
Each time they would see Asher do something, the more shocked they would feel.
"You fine?" Tom asked Kai, whose face looked a bit pale.
"Ah? Yeah, yeah, I will go check on Dane," Kai replied as he went back.
Unlike Asher, who could communicate with Rifir, for others, Rifir was a terrifying existence.
"Now, all I need to do is book this appointment," Tom typed something and did all the things that Asher wanted him to do.
Tom really wanted to know why Asher would do something like this, but knowing how Asher planned things, Tom had developed the habit of not asking things.
In his mind, what Asher was doing was absolutely insane as he was not going out as Asher Greville but as Zephyr.
Currently the most wanted man in the world and someone who was considered the enemy of the High Council itself.
