"cough..cough" Harry thought the 5 finger meant 500 credits but this person was discarding even five lakh credits.
Harry came back to Gracie and Tyler.
"We need 5 people"
"Blake and Liam could join us" Tyler said.
"They are busy, they must have some reason to still hold there even after breaking through... We need to find two other people". Gracie started around if someone was interested in the task.
Harry also looked around, he could ask John to come since he will oblige everything he tell but bringing his contract there would be a problem.
He is not strong enough, bringing him would put him and his group in danger.
He saw gracie pointing towards a pair of students asking other students something.
One of them was familiar.
It was none other than Eldrich. With him there was a girl whom he didn't know.
"Hello, Watery" Liam said loudly... It was not that he wants them to join his team, he was completely unaware of Harry and Gracie's last discussion with Eldrich.
He just saw the Eldrich and wanted to show how they could beat him now. He remembered challenging him while coming out of cafeteria.
But he saw a punch so fast that it would crush his skull and his intuition said him to dodge to the right. But it was not enough to evade the hand and also changed its direction towards his head and then it hit, not the punch but flick of fingers.
"Aww it hurts" Aiden called out.
"You better behave or next time it would be your nose" Gracie said pulling her hand back.
Eldrich hearing loud screams focused on the voice where he found a person massaging his tamples.
Gracie and Harry stood beside him waving their hand in air.
He reluctantly waved back and turned back to go out.
But before he could Harry stood beside him.
"Hi friends, wanna join us on Quest"
"No thanks we are not interested" Eldrich rejected.
"The lady must be interested, we need two more people" Harry persuaded ignoring Eldrich.
"On which Quest" The girl seemed interested.
"We are going into the darkwood jungle to kill a pack of wolves." Gracie said joining the party.
"Hmm.. that one, it would be challenging I hope you have enough man power" the girl said.
It was fair, if any of the members were lacking then they could face severe consequences.
"I am level 3 and she is level 4 on top of that she is soul cultivater" Harry said.
"What about the third one"
"He is kinda more tactical he can fight with almost all types of weapons but he is still on foundation building" gracie was not liking the conversation but she knew these types of mistakes could cause their death.
The girl brought Eldrich to the side.
They started having arguments...with their body language Eldrich was looking submissive while the girl was doing the most talk.
They came back.
"I am Nephis, I am hoping we will get along"
It was the answer that they needed.
They came to the receptionist and handed their badges which were taken as a proof and to update the records.
They were picked by a vehicle from the academy.
Seeing those three empty handed, Eldrich and Nephis were confused.
"You didn't bring any luggage, don't tell me it's your first time, but even then the academy teaches basic things in lectures" Nephis frowned.
Harry showed his ring, "i have everything inside"
Both Eldrich and Nephis had their brows shot up. "Space ring...you are from rich family" Eldrich said. He was also from a wealthy family but not wealthy enough that they will distribute space rings to their kids. Even though all the elders had but giving it to kids was far fetched.
Harry was not interested in explaining how he was living out there in some heaven where he could see movies and play games.
"Yeah you can say that" He was just lying, he touched his nose remembering a story.
"Then would you mind if"
"I won't" before they could complete Harry took the luggage and put it inside the ring.
Eldrich and Nephis kept their weapons close.
He would have enjoyed their reaction if he told them that even Tyler and Gracie had their own space bracelet.
It was not like they were hiding, they will surely find in future when they will use it.
Tyler was not in a great mood. He had been silent since then. The same was the case for Eldrich He has not talked much since then.
They arrived in safire City.
The atmosphere was lively. Buildings towering over their head. People were casually walking while their weapons were tied to them. It was just funny how weapons are normalised.
Many of them had a bag on their back. There were shops and restaurants down the street.
When their vehicle passed some people, all the eyes were focused on them. The vehicle itself had a picture of a griffin on its body.
It indicated that the vehicle is from the academy, and it was not rare to see these vehicles it's just the academy holds so much importance that ignoring it was impossible.
There were many people who wanted to join in but had no luck.
The group had no plan of stopping in the City, they will directly cross the city and enter the Darkwood Jungle.
........
"We spotted a academy vehicle in city, as young master mentioned it is going towards the darkwood jungle." A person holding a black brick type communicator said.
He was wearing black rob while carrying no weapon. His hair and beard was thick and covering his most of the facial features.
"Okay follow him, I am sure you will handle them but he aware, those kids won't make much problem but it seems soul clan is also on move. The exact reason is unknown but as we are informed that girl and the kid are soul cultivaters... edward Family is not in condition to take their wrath." The deep and imposing voice came from the other side.
"Should i send some assistance" the voice asked.
"No I am already at seventh level of elemental master realm. While none of them should be over 3rd level. I will handle them. The problem is that Eldrich, it won't be great if his family found out about it.. i will avoid killing him but I can't promise".
"No, don't hold back, just remember to not leave any evidence behind".
At the same time 3 fragile looking men were waiting in periferi of the darkwood jungle.
"Do you think they will join us" one of them asked.
"It's hard to tell since academy must have already brainwashed them." The second person said.
The third and last person who seemed to be their leader laughed.
"If they can be manipulated so easily then who needs them, it will be better to just get rid of them".
