Since they got a new task, the team imdiately split up, planning their own movents based on their specialties.
For Erwin, he was roaming around while acting arrogant as usual. However, he was observing every single person, especially the one from the country Clovis ntioned.
Of course, since the information ca from Angelia, her country was also monitored by him.
Kanaria was working with Vina to see if there were any movents. All of them started with logistics, such as the number of people, the amount of food, and other equipnt.
Once she could track all of them, the situation would beco clear.
Still, the most important role would be left to Aileen.
Unlike anyone else, her presence could be erased completely.
Clovis was already surprised by Angelia’s lack of presence, but Aileen was even more amazing than her in concealing her presence, and Aileen was still Tier 7. If she beca Tier 8, her ability would evolve further.
That was why Aileen followed their leader, Jun, as much as possible. There was a high chance of him being involved, so she made sure to get everything.
It looked like there was indeed a conspiracy.
Aileen was leaning against the wall with a calm expression, waiting for Jun inside the room.
It was then that she overheard a conversation.
"Everything has been prepared. However, Angelia and Raven are pretty much uncooperative."
"It doesn’t matter if they cooperate with us or not. What really matters is whether you can stop them or not."
It was a voice that she couldn’t recognize, but it was clear that soone was there with him. Aileen maintained her concealed presence, making sure not a single mistake occurred so as to not alert the enemy.
"Of course I can do it. As long as I can do this..." Jun squinted his eyes.
"Of course. The Prophet will reward you greatly. No, he might even make you his student if you really succeed."
Jun clenched his hands into fists. Becoming a student of a Tier 9 human was simply different from any other benefit. First of all, the teacher would most likely protect their student.
And just having a Tier 9 human behind him would greatly boost his reputation.
Just like how people were wary of Clovis, who had the backing of Michael Hacfield and Ezekiel Elseingarde, Jun would beco one of the most fearso n once he beca the Prophet’s student.
"Just make sure you do well. If not, you will have to pay the price." The man exited the room after he said his piece.
As soon as he got outside, he couldn’t help but look to the left, only to find an empty space.
"..." Aileen stayed silent the whole ti and even hid her body behind a small pillar.
The man then walked away, slowly but carefully.
Aileen tried to follow the man, considering he was the one with the link to the Prophet.
Unfortunately, she wouldn’t be able to capture or kill this person. After all, the man was actually a Tier 8 human.
If she ca with the intention to kill, the other party would pick up on her killing intent.
So, she just followed him until they reached the lobby. After that, he took a seat, opened a newspaper, and stayed still. It was as if he was just waiting and observing the state of the hotel right after.
"..." Aileen couldn’t help but wonder if she should continue tailing him or just report back.
She waited for at least four hours until a group of people, all Tier 8 humans, approached him.
"Have you been waiting for us?"
"We are not late, are we?"
Aileen couldn’t help but squint her eyes. ’There are 7 Tier 8 humans? Are there more? Not just Tier 8... There might be more elites at Tier 6 or Tier 7 who aren’t important enough to be included...’
’It looks like there is going to be a big clash this ti.’ Aileen’s body suddenly shook.
She couldn’t help but hear, "Hmm?"
"What’s wrong?"
"I don’t know..." The woman looked around but couldn’t see anyone. "Maybe it’s just my feeling."
"Are you nervous? Well, you can be nervous, considering our target this ti."
In the anti, Aileen had completely gone as soon as there was a sign that her operation was about to be discovered.
She was the last one to report, but her report was the most important.
"I see." Clovis crossed his arms. The rest of the group had grim expressions.
7 Tier 8 humans were sothing they couldn’t take lightly.
There were three Tier 8 generals from Absalom if Clovis wanted to ask for help, but they still needed to fight four more people.
Clovis wouldn’t be able to handle him alone, especially if this Tier 8 human possessed a pseudo unique ability.
At most, he could handle a normal Tier 8 human. Anything beyond that would require assistance.
Christina should be able to take one on, but the problem would be the rest of the team. He might have to ask them to cooperate with each other to take on the other two.
But the problem was that Clovis planned to go ahead so that the country didn’t get involved in this clash.
Clovis muttered, "There is nothing weird with the logistics, but there are at least 7 Tier 8 humans, so it’s clear that they’re operating alone. If we take the ’disciple’ thing into account, Jun might be doing this without his country’s knowledge.
"In the worst-case scenario, the country knows, and we will have to include them in the equation."
Erwin nodded in agreent. "There is no special finding on my side. However, I have seen Jun’s face. From the looks of it, he’s a very greedy person who isn’t satisfied with his current status. So, it might be because of his personal greed."
Clovis wondered how he should proceed with this. After all, he didn’t really want to involve Absalom unless it was necessary.
Suddenly, soone knocked on the door, startling them.
However, the mont they heard the voice or her line, it was clear who the person was.
"Room service. Food service? Bed Wrestling? Or maybe an information service?"
