Conquering The Game's World Chapter 200: Sneaky Owl!

"Huh? Do you an Prince Thomas? Why?" Luis asked, stunned. 'I did not expect him to act so soon.'

"I don't know," Alex shook his head. "It was said in the letter that this matter was of utmost importance, so I should arrive at the eting place on ti."

"In that case, is it okay for you to share such information with ?" Luis asked, taken aback. "What if Prince Thomas condemns you for this?"

Alex showed a look of realization, and after being nervous for a few seconds, he shrugged, pretending to be calm.

"Doesn't matter… There was no such thing stated in the letter that I can't talk about it with others. So, it should be fine."

Luis could see that Alex was indeed nervous. 'This protagonist is making worried about Alnaur's future.'

At this stage in ti, Alex was indeed too ordinary, but Luis knew better than anyone not to underestimate this guy. In his three years at the academy, his growth is going to be astonishing. However, that's all for the latter. The current Alex and his personality don't attract Luis' attention.

"I see, then I'll be on my way. See you around, Alex," Luis said with a polite smile.

"Yeah, good night."

Luis gave a slight wave of his hand and left towards the dorm.

Alex stood there, observing Luis' back for a few seconds. 'Such a kind and pleasant guy. I can't see an ounce of pretence in his eyes. He is different from those cunning bastards, who only know how to take advantage of the other party in the na of friendship.'

As he thought so, a faint smile appeared on Alex's face. 'Maybe only such a person is worthy of my friendship.'

Not wanting to waste ti standing there, Alex also left for the eting place.

***

Luis, who had walked quite so distance from Alex, asked using 'Telepathy'. {Lily, the button drones are in place, right?}

{Yes, Master! All their actions are under my monitoring. A student nad Sid Klemp sent the letter to Alex.}

{The scrawny underling that Thomas found?} Luis asked.

{Yes, Thomas seems to appreciate his sharp mind.}

{Hmm, is that so?} Luis pondered. 'Is it possible that he is the one implicating Thomas' actions? It might be just overthinking… but just in case.'

{Lily, add Sid Klemp to the list of 'Interested Targets' to be monitored.}

{Will do so, Master!}

After hearing this, Luis nodded and deactivated his 'Telepathy Skill'.

'I wanted to have dinner while watching the drama between Thomas and Luis. However, before that, it seems like I will have to deal with this sneaky owl first.'

When Luis found himself in a desolate area with no people in sight. His steps halted, and he uttered after exhaling an exhausted sigh.

"Well, that's it. Now co out! How long are you going to keep following ?"

…

Luis' words were t with silence as a response.

"You know if you don't co out right now. I don't mind increasing the workload of my team's 'Striker'."

As soon as Luis' statent ca out, a white shadow flashed by, and a familiar red-haired boy appeared in front of him. However, unlike his previous listlessness, this ti his eyes were sharp and solemn.

"I knew you would co out if I said that, Cobert," Luis said with a smirk.

Cobert's expression was calm, and he asked in a flat voice. "How did you find out I was following you?"

"Aren't you just a 3-star F-Rank? Of course, I should be able to find you being a rank higher than you." Luis said with a calm smile, but Cobert could sense the sarcasm in his words. This made him doubt. 'Does he know my identity?'

Thinking that it was enough ssing with him, Luis got straight to the point. "So, why were you following ? Did you accept a commission to kill or sothing?"

Cobert's gaze looking at Luis beca deep. "It seems you do know my identity?"

"Don't bla . It was you who were too suspicious when you told your back story before." Luis said with a shrug. Although he acted calm. His nerves were tense, and he kept his guard towards Cobert. Prepared for the fight at any ti.

If worse ca to worst, he was ready to escape using his Space Elent, then let the forces of the Suarez Family eliminate him and the Night Hawkers.

Though, all of that will only happen if he fails in this bet. If he plays the cards well, he might be able to gain a good subordinate and maybe make all the Night Hawkers work for him.

This is the reason, instead of acting oblivious, Luis took this risk.

"Were there flaws?"

Although Cobert's expression didn't change, Luis could see that he was surprised.

"Grazha Town, adopted by a rchant, Mist Elent, Dagger User."

Under Cobert's deep gaze, Luis pointed out those things and stated. "It would be weird if I am not suspicious after all these coincidences. Now your presence here confird my doubts that you are indeed 'Twilight Owl'."

At the ntion of his code na, so unpleasantness passed by Cobert's face, which Luis was quick to notice.

"You seem pretty familiar with my other identity."

Cobert wanted to kill Luis and silence him so that he wouldn't tell others about his identity. But he knew if he did that, it would be even more difficult for him to live a normal daily life. The powerful forces behind Luis were sure to hunt him down.

After thinking of all this and seeing Luis' calm expression, Cobert discarded the idea of eliminating him and planned to talk it out first.

'Luis seems like a reasonable guy. Maybe I can convince him to hide my identity. Besides, until now he had been treating like a friend and there's no hatred between us. I can't keep killing at every turn. I need to restrain myself.'

Cobert thought as he rembered the reason he ca to this academy and cald himself down.
