"Crimson Skeleton."
Both of them said at the sa ti.
"!!!" Everyone couldn't help but raise their eyebrows, turning their heads to Nathan.
No one expected Nathan to say the sa thing.
"Nathan. Do you know them?" Flora furrowed her eyebrows.
Nathan closed his eyes for a mont.
…
Two days ago.
"Is there a noble among them?" Nathan asked.
Bella shook her head. "For the ti being, I couldn't find any na yet. However, there are quite a lot of suspicious lists. For example, this Crimson Skeleton.
"They're buying a lot of summoners from the Black Cat Organization. However, the money and the number of people don't match up. It's hard to calculate it precisely, but the money is practically too much. It feels like they're buying sothing else.
"Because this is the transaction recorded by the headquarters, I'm afraid the people in the transactions are entertainnt establishnts.
"Still, the na of Crimson Skeleton doesn't sound like an entertainnt establishnt. They're probably the ones doing the dirty things.
"What kind of item would make them pay so much?"
Evelyn frowned. "Didn't Sonia say sothing about those summoners being drugged?"
"Ah. Do you an an item that can control them, such as drugs or hypnotic spells?" Bella nodded. "That might be possible. Well, they're not our main target, so we can ignore it for the ti being."
"Fair enough. We can just release the information anonymously. For now, let's sort out everything first."
"Yep." Bella agreed.
…
Nathan sighed. He never thought the situation would be linked to the Holy Kingdom. Now that he thought about it, there was no way the nobles would openly purchase them. They would use other organizations or other nas to do the dirty work.
Bella and Evelyn would have a hard ti tracking the nobles down.
Nathan said, "Black Cat Organization. That's where I found it. The drugs and those summoners… they were the ones providing it, not them.
"However, destroying the Crimson Skeleton should still do the job.
"Black Cat Organization was known for their brainwashing, right? They kidnapped people, brainwashed them, and sold them.
"Those summoners might actually be the students kidnapped in the past. It wouldn't be that bad of an idea to rescue them as well. The scars would be extre, but there might still be so people who would like to continue living."
"!!!" They couldn't help but suck in a cold breath. They didn't expect the situation to be this complex.
Selena hadn't recovered fully, so she didn't notice his wording. However, Flora realized what was going on. "Was?"
"I was gone for a few days, right? It was to destroy the Black Cat Organization, wiping out all their bases and rescuing as many people as possible." Nathan sighed before turning to Flora. "I will give you their nas later. See if you can return them to their families."
"O-oh!" Flora blinked her eyes a few tis. She had never expected Nathan had wiped out the Black Cat Organization.
Even if the Azilia Kingdom wanted to do it, they would have a hard ti. Sending a world class summoner could destroy them, but because they had multiple bases, they needed a lot of people.
The Black Cat would definitely sll them coming and imdiately go into hiding. On the other hand, if the Black Cat wasn't crushed thoroughly, they would appear again in the future.
That was why wiping out the Black Cat was challenging even for the Azilia Kingdom, not taking into account the implication it would bring. After all, the people who were getting the advantage from the Black Cat would definitely riot.
But if a mysterious organization was the one doing it, they would have a hard ti finding that organization.
It seed Nathan's backer was much more terrifying than she originally thought.
Flora nodded. "If it's just returning them, it should be fine. We can proceed as secretly as possible to avoid any backlash. I'll tell my father about it. No. I think it's better to let the Pope handle it.
"By using this attack as an excuse to track down their people and return them to where they belong…"
Nathan agreed. "What do you think, Sera? I will also give so proof linking those to the Black Cat Organization. As long as they're able to link everything to the bishop, nothing can stop his downfall."

"I will ask my teacher about it. But are you sure it's fine to let him know about the Black Cat's extermination?" Sera asked.
"Yeah." Nathan nodded.
"Understood. I'll tell him after this discussion."
Nathan recalled the ti the Pope told him about raising his own faction within the Holy Kingdom. He trained as many people to be righteous to combat the corrupt faction.
The Pope knew that the current situation had complicated the situation. In fact, Nathan personally thought the corrupt faction had to be reduced a bit more so that they could control them a bit easier, especially in a situation like this where they couldn't afford to watch their back all the ti.
Hence, helping the Pope should be good as well.
"Still, doesn't this an we have to split into three pairs? It'll be the sa as the previous mission, huh?" Alavenya frowned. "Are we going with the sa pair?"
"I don't think we should. Even though this is a mission, this is also an opportunity for us to grow so that we can handle all types of situations by ourselves. Isn't that right, Nathan?" Sera smiled.
"Yeah."
"That's why I have prepared this." Sera took out a cup with six sticks inside. "Each stick has a number on it. It will tell you your partner in this mission. What do you think?"
"It should be fun. No cheating." Nathan smiled.
Sera put down the cup while saying, "In that case, please take one stick, everyone."
Since Nathan had agreed to the arrangent, they all reached out for a stick before pulling them out at the sa ti.
"Hmm? Number 1?" Selena raised her eyebrows.
"It seems I will be going with you, Selena." Alavenya showed her number.
"Please take care of ." Selena nodded.
"I'm number 2. Who is with ?" Sera lifted her stick up before finding Noelle raising her hand. "Ohhh!"
While looking at his number, Nathan couldn't help but hear the seductive voice coming from his right. "Look, Nathan. We'll be together for this mission. I'm looking forward to it. Hehehe."
