(From MC''s POV)
Wilderness,
After knowing Jake''s strength, I didn''t hesitate anymore and led Jake towards the cave structure.
20 minutester,
After walking through a difficult path, I arrived at a cave structure in this grim darkness. The cave in front of me ispletely huge. I halted my footsteps and began to observe the surroundings.
Jake House slowly walked beside Vincent. He looked at the cave structure and at Vincent. "Where are they?" He asked in an arrogant tone.
This guy? It looks like he couldn''t hold on anymore. When I notice his gaze, I simply point him towards the cave entrance.
Jake House sneered, "It''s time to end this farce." Damn! He had never walked this far in his life before. Right now, it''s the middle of the night. But they walked for several hours. To think he has gone through such a hurdle.
He simply hated this neer. Before killing him, he decided to meet the mastermind behind all of this. Looking at the cave structure, he felt it was a suitable location for a fight.
The inside space of a cave ispletely isted from the outside world. Even if it were a duel between level-4 wizards, it wouldn''t attract much attention.
Thinking about the opposite faction, Jake House''s heart boiled in anger. He thought this was too much bullying. If these people desperately wanted this unknown rock, then why did they give it to them?
Jake House is frustrated that his faction is also no good either. They knowingly dragged him into this type of storm.
Anyway, things havee this far. He has no mind to part with the unknown rock.
To think a whole faction is working behind the scenes to get this unknown rock, he can only guess how valuable it is. If he could eliminate this trouble in front of him now, then it would give him some time of relief.
Next, he immediately dashed towards the entrance. He isn''t afraid of the wizards inside. The only person who can stop them now is a level-4 wizard.
And level-4 wizards were aloof and arrogant. He doesn''t think the opposite faction would take such a risk of exposure. Because the Wizards were at level 4 and above, their movements were watched by the organisation.
Most importantly, enemy organisations have their eyes on them. So, in order not to get caught in an enemy trap, most wizards won''t venture out of the organisation easily. Unless there was something important, Jake smirked after figuring it out.
Ecstasy rose in his heart thinking about cracking the secret. He can''t wait to plummet Frank Lambert openly in front of his whole ss.
"He... he...he..." Heughed out loud while moving a little deeper inside the cave.
Outside of the cave,
He really went inside. I don''t know whether tough or cry thinking about the whole operation. I sessfully fooled him to lure him into this area.
But he didn''t even question me. I think there is something that I don''t know. I can''t believe how well the n has worked so far.
There is only onest hurdle, and it is also an important part of the n, which is to kill him without any trace.
Next, take out the metallic box from the storage bracelet. I need to take these poison bottles out for immediate use. I don''t know when he will break out of his dream and realise that he has been fooled by me.
Looking at the metallic box, I try to open it. Consider getting a fingerprint scanner. "How cumbersome?" I muttered. It''s impossible to open without breaking the metallic box. I hope that poison bottles won''t get damaged.
"Gravity Pull"
I recited words to cast a spell. In order not to make a noise, I controlled the gravity force. When I ced my palm on the metallic box.
"Creak", the scanner gotpletely smashed.
Next, the box was opened sessfully. I immediately look at the poison bottles for any damage. Fortunately, there is no such thing.
The four poison bottles looked fine. But the purple liquid inside the bottles gave me a dreadful feeling. This thing is not even open, but I can still feel how omnious this is.
I ced the metallic box and three poison bottles back in my storage bracelet. I will use thisst poison bottle to kill him. So, I carefully hid it in my pocket.
I hope the bottle ss is durable; I don''t want to die before killing him. After sorting out everything, I gazed at the entrance. I don''t know how deep this cave is. It''s been five minutes. I don''t know how much distance Jake has covered.
Unknowingly, a smile appeared on my face. What could be a more perfect murder spot than this? I felt excited for my second kill.<novelnext></novelnext>
The first kill was a very amature one. In that first kill, the enemy is a lot weaker than me. I took advantage of that to finish him. But this one went beyond my expectations.
"Super relic! Oh my super relic! " I grunted in excitement.
Next, I entered the cave to find him.
Inside the cave,
"Fu*k!" Jake cursed, looking at the depth of the cave. The only good thing is that the cave path is wide enough to move around.
It''s been five minutes since he entered the cave. But there is no sign of any enemy whatsoever. At this point of time, somewhere in his mind, he started to get doubtful.
Yet his hatred for the opposite faction was so great in his heart that it clouded his judgement. His arrogance also contributed to his current judgement. As a result, he failed to realise another possibility.
But soon, Jame came to realise that something was amiss. Normally, at this point of time, he would havee across the enemy wizard. And knowing how treacherous that opposite faction is, he knows they can''t wait to kill him.
Then Jake halted his footsteps after another 5 minutes. He raised his head to see ahead. But he still can''t see the end through these goggles. He fell into deep contemtion. "What is going on?" He muttered to himself.
There is still no sign of enemies. He believes that there is no possibility of meeting someone ahead. He came this far, someone should have encountered him. But nothing of the sort has urred.
Jake thought of something. He turned back to look at the entrance. But there is no sign of Vincent Carey. "What happened to this neer?" Jake uttered surprise.
Shaking his head, Jake muttered, "It''s better to inquire a neer about this. At Least he is aware of the unknown rock. "
Then he didn''t go any deeper; rather, he decided to wait here for Vincent.
Thank goodness I brought these goggles with me. It saved me from lots of hurdles. If not, I don''t know how to lead Jake inside the cave.
After Sighing, I increased my pace a little bit faster.
Soon, 10 minutester,
I spotted a silhouette standing ahead of me. After inching closer, I realised Jake was waiting for me. My expression condensed after knowing that.
My hand went to my pocket to take out the poison bottles. But I hurriedly stopped my impulse. Before knowing this guy''s methods, I don''t want to use my main card.
Next, I took out the round artifact from the storage bracelet and held it in my hands.
This is the level-3 me attack artifact given to me by Mr. Laurenz.
I reduced my speed and walked up to him. Fortunately, this guy fell into contemtion. He wasn''t even aware of my presence. I raised my eyebrows, but the next moment, Jake raised his head to nce at me.
Both of us looked at each other. Jake started to release his mana. Though it''s level 1, it''s still oppressive for me. I furrowed my eyebrows. This guy, did he find out?
Jake House said in a grim tone, "Newer, where is your boss?" Hepletely lost his patience this time.
Even if he didn''t get any satisfactory answer, he decided to thrash this neer first.
Hearing his words, I turned towards the entrance to see. What to say? I want to catch him off guard before using this level-3 artifact. Then quickly, I thought of something.
"Cough" "Cough,"
I replied, "Well, he is watching over us right now. But he gave me a little test before rewarding me. " I somewhat uttered this in a dejected tone.
Jake House raised his eyebrows and asked, "What test?" At the same time, he tried to sense anyone around him. But he knows it''s a futile attempt. Because it''s impossible to find a level-2 wizard with his current level.
Seeing that this guy is a little dazzled I immediately injected mana into the round artefact to activate it. When I felt zing heat in my palm, I knew it was only a matter of time before this blew off.
So I took this golden opportunity to throw this thing at him. The round silver-colored artefact slowly turned red in color. Like a fireball, it dashed towards Jake House at a breakneck speed.
Jake House''s pupils constrict in perceiving the danger.
