Chapter 332: Make him pay.

Not knowing how screwed he was, Pascal took a carriage straight for the adventurer association building to register to be posted at one of the walls.

On entering the building, Pascal proceeded to the recruitment section where he informed the female Ash cop who was in charge of the recruitment.

She had wavy hazel hair and an oval head with brown oval framed glasses on. Even though she was missing a smile and her eyes were dull due to the stress of working from morning to this late in the night, Pascal still considered her to be pretty.

“After filling the form please kindly wait as we process that of those that came before you.” The female ash cop said as he handed Pascal the form and gestured for him to take a seat.

Unknown to him, Xander who had recovered from the effects of the clear gem ring, and the masked man were floating high up in the sky, looking down on the adventurer association building.

“Let me guess, instead of getting out of there immediately you got the Master seal, you decided to have some fun?” The masked man who was dressed in all black including his cloak said without turning to Xander.

“Yes.” Xander said with a wry smile as he fiddled with his hair.

.....

“Didn’t you have a plan for a situation like this?” The masked man asked.

“I did. The explosions were meant to cause every adventurer in the area including those in the sewers to respond and move to the surface.

In the case of an anomaly like this. Since he would be alone, it would be an easy kill and if he was to try to return the artifact to the Karius family I would have intercepted him and done the same.” Xander answered.



Xander had made his plans based on the fact that no one in their right senses would not only steal from the league of assassins but would also steal an artifact from one of the top 3 families of the empire.

He had no idea that Pascal was metaphorically and literally living under a rock when the explosion had happened. So he had no idea that the artifact had a connection with the league of assassins, alas it was already too late for him.

As for why they hadn’t made their way into the high-rise building, it was very dangerous and the league of assassins had rules they abided by.

Entering the association building to commit a crime was no different from hanging oneself from a ceiling fan and somehow being able to turn on the switch to the max speed.

Not only were the arrays in the building strong enough to easily capture an Angel but with the help of both the hidden and unhidden adventurers, taking down an archangel wouldn’t be out of reach.



Best

As for the rules, the league of assassins wasn’t meant to conduct an assassination or mission in or within places like the adventurer association or the walls, especially during the beast tide.

The reason for the former was because of an agreement between both of the superpowers, while the latter was also an agreement with the league and the empire, to prevent losing an entire city. So all they could do was just wait.

...

Back in the adventurer association building, Pascal was done filling the form and it was finally his turn to be attended to.

Once he submitted the form and it was checked by the female ash cop, she used one of the stamps on her desk on the form and handed it back to Pascal.

‘Fuck me...’ Pascal shook his head as he cursed his bad luck when he saw the southern wall stamp on his form.

Not being the 20th time she saw a scene like this, the female ash cop instructed Pascal to wait for some time before they would all be teleported to the southern wall.

...

Back outside...

It had been almost half an hour since the target had entered the adventurer association building, but Xander soon felt a pull at his consciousness.

It was the Master seal, and it had moved all the way to the southern wall.

“Shit!” Xander cursed before informing the masked man.

It didn’t need a genius to decipher what just happened. The target had moved to the southern wall where they were unable to operate. It was as if he was daring them to come and get him if they could.

“Any advice on what I should do?” Xander asked.

“I am not meant to take part in your mission, that is why I didn’t stop him before he got here, but I have 2 pieces of advice for you. Make sure you follow the rules and make him suffer for stealing and challenging the league of assassins.” The Masked man said before warping out.

“Now I have to keep an eye on him till the beast tided is over.” Xander face-palmed when he thought of how his lack of seriousness put him under so much stress.

“On the bright side, I will get to watch the performance of the city’s 2nd prodigy, but before that, I have to make a report to the client.” Xander said before contacting an agent of the league to send Oliver Nystrom a one-use communication orb.

He explained the situation to him, and although almost no one dared to get angry at a member of the league, Oliver Nystrom seemed quite happy about the outcome.

He had been told by Xander that there was a chance of something going wrong so he had prepared his heart for such an outcome.

As for the reason for his happiness. As long as the Karius family had their hands on the Master seal it was still a win situation because with or without it, he still remained the best in beast taming.

Also, there was soon going to be an investigation on the matter. So not being in possession of the artifact was an added advantage.
