91 Just a Rank-6? (2/2)
His reply caused Irvin's eyes to twitch as it was true that he could not stop him.
”So, just take me to this... boss of yours.”- Ozul told the woman who had her eye lit up after hearing him.
She thought that maybe this was her only chance to get out of the situation.
Ozul stood up from the chair and started walking out of the hotel following right behind the woman who still walked stiffly due to her earlier fright.
However, just before exiting the door, Ozul seemingly said to no one.
”Go back to sleep. Otherwise, wait for the punishment.”
Just after he had muttered those words, two shadows standing near the stairs tiptoed back to their room.
Those shadows were precisely Raven and Blaze. They could not hold back their curiosity, so they had silently left their room under the cover of Raven's Spell.
The Magical Spell hid them in shadows, and even some experienced Mages wouldn't be able to notice them. But how could just a veil of darkness protect them from Ozul's senses?
Not to mention that Ozul had sensed them even earlier due to the darkness.
Irvin was hesitating if he should follow him or not. Only when Haley nodded her head at him did his expression turned determined. Both of them also walked out of the hotel. It was their mess, to begin with.
In their view, Ozul was helping them, so if they backed down now, it would be a d*ck move on their part.
They were inseparable even in the face of danger as Irvin did not stop Haley from following him.
Ozul still did not have a complete understanding of the group that he was dealing with. Heck, he did not even know their purpose!
So on the way, he started asking questions about the organization while the old couple was walking side by side with him.
”What do you guys do?”
”Huh?”- The woman was confused that he did not even know what they did. She had thought that he was someone with the old couple, but it seemed as though she was wrong.
”Just answer me already.”- He said before the woman felt the needle pricking just another millimeter in her skin.
”Yes!... Our group just gathers information around the city.”
”Oh? What about them, are they also in your organization?”- Ozul asked while pointing towards the old couple who had wry expressions on their faces since he did not even directly ask them.
”Yes, they joined just some months ago. They ran the hotel and just kept tabs on the people since they did not have any extraordinary strength.”-
The woman did not hold back any information in an attempt to gain time. In her mind, the kid would die in the hands of her boss anyway, so it didn't matter how much she told him.
”They had come seeking a place to hide, and in return, they just kept an eye on the civilians to find anything unusual. However, we just recently found that he had been hiding artifacts!”
”That's why the boss had sent Drom and me to take them from these old farts.”
”What do you do with the information?”-
”That... I don't know. Boss Bafon deals with everything personally.”- The woman nervously replied since her answer did not seem so convincing.
Ozul knew that she was not lying since he could read her emotions like a book.
He was also curious as to how Irvin got hold of the Magical Items while only being an 'ordinary human'.
Though he already knew that the old couple was not so ordinary as they seemed to be, Ozul did not understand anything more than that.
He gave a side glance towards the couple who avoided his gaze and whistled innocently.
The rest of the way, no one said anything since Ozul did not need any more information.
There were still people on the streets, but the direction they walked in had fewer people. Sometime later, they were in the darkest alleys of the city where you could even hear the sound of bugs in the surroundings.
”Hey! Samora is back!”- As they were walking, Ozul heard the shout of a man...
