"Dude we are trying to eat here!" Brian and Castiel couldn't imagine how Blake was able to eat with those thoughts in his head.
"Wow, didn't know you guys would be disturbed by that." Blake clicked his tongue. "By the way what are we going to do with the meat in our dimensional pocket?"
"Seriously?" Both Castiel and Brian looked at him with furrowed brows and expressionless faces causing Blake to chuckle.
[Not as if you are being suspected of anything, but it could be used to make your story more believable.] The system said ignoring what was going on between the teens.
"How will pieces of meat make our story more believable?" Brian asked with a raised brow.
[Unlike you guys that could only sense mana, high-level cultivators would are able to sense life essence. Since the pieces of meat have already been drained it wouldn't go unnoticed.] The system explained.
"Alright so when are we going to meet him?" Blake asked because they hadn't gotten any rest since they had returned.
"We really need to rest, but I for one prefer getting it off my chest before we do any other thing." Castiel's words received nods.
Immediately after they were done with their meals, the trio went over to the other side of the association building and met Susan.
"We would like to meet Guild Master Walden to submit our report." Blake said to the blonde receptionist.
"He has agreed to the meeting. Please follow me." Susan led them to the guild master's office.
"I am surprised that we are meeting in a short moment. Please take a seat." With a warm smile, Walden gestured for them to take a seat.
"Now, before you begin your report I will like to make some things clear." Walden began speaking when the trio was seated.
"Normally, after a mission, there is no need to give a report and it also applicable when you discover a ruin or anything. The spoils of the ruin won't be seized no matter what it is and there would need to give any info concerning them."
Walden listened to their heartbeat and closely watched their expressions as he spoke, but there wasn't much of a change.
"The only reason you are being requested to make a report is that the ash corps and the association are carrying out an investigation on the massacre and displacement of beasts all around Bulian hills.
We are suspecting that something or things in the research facility are responsible for the massacre and since your party was in there, you are to be questioned." Walden explained
"Now, that you know this, you can now begin." Walden gestured for Blake to begin his report.
"It all started from when we left the northern city wall…"
Blake began from the very beginning which was their mission with the Winchester family.
He narrated about their journey to the Bulian hills, the fights against the alpha warg, and the abnormal increase of beasts in the region.
He mentioned the fight between them and the alpha, which corresponded to the story of the Winchester family butler.
'So far no increase in their heartbeat. Let's see how they react to my questions.' Walden thought when the part of the gravely injured rugor corresponded to Zirrack's earlier report.
"After checking the Rugor, I returned to the group and that was when the teleportation array appeared and Tessie was saved by her butler." Blake said.
'Huh?' Finally, Walden noticed a change in heart rate, but it was because they were embarrassed to tell someone especially the guild master that the first thing they did in the facility was to sleep.
Blake told him how they went through the corridors and into the room with the black gas, but skipped the parts about disabling arrays.
"So you are telling me that there was no form of security or arrays protecting the doors?" Walden asked, but he received nods from the trio but there was no increase in heart rate meaning it was the truth.
Blake's narration went on for 10 more minutes and during the entire time, their heart rate hadn't been abnormal.
"Thanks for the report, it will go a long way in the investigation. Also, when the investigation is over, your party will be reward based on how help for the information is." Walden said with a thankful smile on his face.
"Alright let's see what we got here." After the trio left the office, Walden looked at the points he had jotted down and began expanding on each of them.
"Firstly, from the use of dimensional abilities and the party leader's direct statement. It is safe to say Mack Hoffenheim has picked a disciple."
"Second, the mention of the heavy research of forbidden magic reported in the facility removes a lot of people from the suspect list."
"Third, the security and versatility of the facility, with the mention of a sentient being acting as the core further narrows the list down to 2 people."
"Lastly, the party mentioned how they were forced to open a stasis pod which never appeared, and from the series of invents mentioned, it is clear that the core had staged all this." At this point, Walden put down his pen and went into deep thinking.
"...Is it who I think it is?"
…
Immediately after the report, the trio returned to Blake's room and congratulated themselves.
The system had informed them of a chance that their heart rate would be monitored, so they came up with a plan.
As the one making the report, the system had made a visual representation of the perfect script they had constructed.
So, all Blake had to do was to read it out with mind boost on, in order to increase his concentration and decrease his emotional reaction.
As for Brian and Castiel, the system spoke into their minds in order to stop them from reacting to the story. It was only when needed that it would stop to make their reactions more realistic.
"That was a brilliant plan, but don't you guys think we will get in trouble for lying." Brian asked, causing everyone to pause and look at each other, but they soon burst into laughter.
