Chapter 59: Unrecorded (5)

Zhan, a guild leader of a small guild, who decided to try their luck inside this gate to get through their financial crisis.

Actually, Zhan, as an A-rank Esper, she could even join any top guild, and being a gifted archer, she would be sought after. However, the guild was also important to her, being the only thing that reminded her of her parents.

She wanted to at least try her best to save the guild and pay their heavy debts.

When they entered the gate, everything was going smoothly. Although an A-rank gate, the monsters inside were not too dangerous if one was careful enough. Even if her members were only averaging C rank.

She was only the higher rank esper, and Zhan’s prowess was also among the top inside this gate.

When exploring, Zhan finally thought the heavens were helping her and the guild. With such a huge yet empty gate, they had managed to find a medium-sized mana stone! And it was not only one!

After a small quake, the part of the ground opened, and mana stones then appeared in front of them, which were then fighting a contaminated beast.

However, the luck did not shine on them for long. Another group arrived and immediately sensed the concentration of the mana stones.

Wild espers.

While wild espers were not frowned upon heavily, those affiliated with the underground world had a bad reputation. They were not afraid of pulling any crime inside the gate, killing and stealing was basically a common occurrence among them.

A man with a long tail suddenly laughed, licking his lips, staring at Zhan’s voluptuous body with obvious lust.

"Give us the mana stones!" He demanded, then smirked, "Also... Let me taste you a bit." The guys around him also laughed amidst the angry shouts of the guild members.

Just as the long-tongued man was about to spit bullshits again, he suddenly collapsed on the ground. The laughter ceased, and everyone stared at the dead body, too stunned to speak.

A magical arrow was deeply embedded in his skull.

Zhan with a serious expression stared indifferently at the corpse. She then lowered her arm, holding the bow.

Sure, they could insult her. However, she would not let that slide. She had dealt to similar malicious individuals far too many times.

"Taste me, if you’re alive." Zhan sneered.

After a few seconds, the other wild espers finally recovered, they shouted in fury.

"How dare you!"

"You bitch! You’ll pay for this!"

There were sort of obscenities and curses, making the younger guild members turn pale. They had never heard such vulgarities yet, and they almost cried.

Zhan looked around and could not help but sighed. This was bad. The two sides were not comparable at all. Her guild members were low-ranked and also inexperienced.

While the other side was somehow the same, but they were already used to fighting. She knew there was no chance of winning.

Even as an A-rank, she could not fight everyone alone. Her strength was being long-ranged, but once they caught her, it would be over. Zhan was aware her guild members would not be able to protect her front for too long once the fight started.

Biting her lips, she looked at the guild members and the mana stones. She was conflicted, the guild members were important, but the mana stones were equally important.

And these wild espers would not let go of them even if she surrendered the mana stones, as she already killed one of them.

She exhaled somberly; there was no way out.

The air around them grew tense, and a fight would break out in no time.

This was exactly when Rise and Kamille arrived. The two momentarily stopped as the newcomers stole the moment.

A silver-haired man clung so closely to a man with dark hair as both strode leisurely until they were in front of the two groups. There was a wide grin on the silver-haired man’s lips as he looked around, seemingly assessing the situation.

Everyone could not help but gasp; the impending fight was immediately thrown at the back of their minds.

Rise Lee! And Kamille Han!

They also saw them at the entrance, so any Espers inside were aware of their presence and careful enough not to encounter them lest they interrupt their business.

No matter how curious they were, no one was dumb enough to spy on them to find out what they came here for.

Damn, to encounter Rise, so unlucky! The wild espers cursed inside.

Not to say Kamille’s presence did not scare them, but more like they were aware if they did not provoke him, they would be safe. Rise, on the other hand, had a number of records of bullying the weak!

This villain had the tendency to toy with anyone for amusement.

Beware of Rise Lee! That was a famous quote.

Of course, that was an exaggeration, Rise would argue.

"What do we have here?" Rise like a pure bystander, he inquired, and looked at every one. "Are you all fighting?" His eyes lit up, waiting for an answer, even if it was obvious what the answer was.

The wild espers, not having any courage to answer, went silent. The guild members were the same; the aura the two exuded was enough to keep them silent.

Kamille was not saying anything, but his presence was enough to know he was not someone easy to deal with.

In the end, Zhan stepped forward. She knew the rumors about Rise, but as Kamille was there, perhaps, Rise would not act out in front of his Guild Leader.

It was a gamble.

"They want to steal our mana stones," Zhan told the story of what came to this point and that they were the ones who discovered the mana stones first.

She was not scared to tell this to the two, as she knew, these medium-mana stones were not valuable enough for them.

The wild espers gritted their teeth, wanting to interrupt but froze, their feet nailed on the ground. Heavy pressure suddenly poured on them as Rise smiled meaningfully at them.

Siter Zhan is still speaking.

To be able to make Rise call her with respect, Zhan deserved to be the oldest of the official party, being the elder figure.

Kamille remained silent all through it all. Outwardly, he seemed uninterested, but he was watching. He had always been watching.

Anything that interested Rise, Kamille could not help but pay attention more.

This woman... is the reason.

With just a glance, Kamille had figured it out.
