Chapter 145: Massive Problem

That night,

A fat man runs hurriedly from the warehouse, his run is slow but he put his all into it fearing that he will be caught.

‘If the Platchi know what I did, I’m done for’, the fat man thought.

He ran out of the factory, all he wanted is to flee this place and just forget that any of this ever happened to him and live a simple life.

Taking Platchi’s money, he completely regrets all of that.

The fat man’s eyes darted left and right, he can hear people approaching the warehouse. Their shouts can’t be heard by the fat man because he’s already quite far.

If somehow he’ll get caught by those people, then he will surely be tortured and killed without mercy.

He manages to run to the streets, he saw a car passing by.

This makes a smile appear on his face, he picks up the pace and runs faster but before he can shout a hand grabbed him from the side.

The fat man was shocked as he got flung to the side.

“Damn it! Who the fuck is it!”, the fat man groaned as he rolled on the ground, his arms started to bleed because of the momentum he got flung to the side.

From the side, three people approached him.

These three people are wearing white uniforms with golden ornaments, a red scarf wrapped around their necks, and a silver weapon on each of them.

The weapons are not ordinary weapons, they emit power that even the fat man can feel it.

Even he, a normal person can feel the raging power within the weapons.

Looking at them, the fat man’s face went pale.

“Who…Who are you?”, the fat man asks with a trembling voice.

Just from the eyes of these three people, the fat man knows that they are people that he can’t mess with even if he has a thousand lives.

A woman with long dark green hair stepped on the fat man with her heels.

She looks down on the fat man as if she’s seeing a shit, her disgusted expression says it all.

Her piercing eyes look at the fat man making him gulp, “Honey, you messed up our plan. So we have a few questions for you, I hope you answer them well”, the woman said.

“I will tell her the truth if I were you, she’s pretty scary”, the guy on the side added.

Hearing both of their sayings, the fat man instantly knew that he can’t just run off from this even he’s also an Awakened.

‘I’m fucked’, he thought.

Rex busted into his house in a hurry, Adhara also follows behind him completely clueless to the situation they are in right now.

“Where is he?”, Rex said while looking left and right.

Edward approaches him with Kyran on his side, Kyran is holding his head down.

Rex looks at Kyran with a hint of anger, but he knows that it is also his fault for hurrying this, “Didn’t Edward told you what you’re objectives are? Why did you make contact?”

“It’s the perfect moment to sneak in, and also I know where their warehouse is because of it”, Kyran defended.

But under Rex’s glare, he can’t keep his head up.

Looking at Rex that is about to burst in anger, Edward steps up and told him, “Let’s go to the other room, the thing is inside”

After saying that, both Edward and Rex went to the other room.

In the room, they saw a long wooden box that looks ordinary sitting on a table.

Edward signals to Rex, he nudged his head towards the box signaling Rex to see what’s inside the box himself.

Rex walks slowly towards the box, he doesn’t know what he expects to see in it.

He stretched his hand as he opened the box cover, the content inside the box makes his eyes widened in surprise.

Thud!

The box covers fall to the ground making a thudding sound.

Rex scrunches his face with his hands in shock as he sees the content of the box, he then looks at Edward with a disbelieving look.

“Yeah, there’s three very high-ranking wind spellbooks. One offensive, one defensive, and one powerful enhancement spell”, Edward explained.

The inside of the box turns out to be very powerful spellbooks and a bunch of stones that came alongside it, they hit the jackpot.

But although they hit the jackpot, their faces are grim as they look at the spellbooks inside the wooden box.

Rex looks down in thought before Edward said, “You know what this means right?”

“Out of all the content in the warehouse, Kyran can take, he just have to choose this one”, Rex said in frustration, he can’t believe another massive problem fall into his lap.

He already checks the spellbooks and the stone with the system, and it is true.

All of these is indeed very powerful wind element spellbooks, it needs at least a rank seven Awakened to even learn these spells.

Edward leans on the wall with a grim expression, “We have to give it back”

“How?! That warehouse will be filled with people searching for this!”, Rex shouted, his emotion is erupting right now.

He got enough problems and now he got a new one.

A very bad one at that too, it’s simply catastrophic for their current state.

Edward looks at Rex seriously, he then said, “We can just leave the box near the Platchi’s market, they will find it then and all of it will go back like normal”

Hearing this, Rex waves his hand and went out to the balcony.

He’s getting fresh air and calming himself down, ‘What should we do, this is an emergency’, Rex thought with a frown.

The content of the box is three very powerful wind spellbooks, only above rank seven can use it.

The Platchi family is just the 25th in the rankings, and they are lead by Duncan Platchi who himself is a rank seven powerhouse.

But Duncan is a fire Elementalist,

This means that the box they took from the Platchi’s warehouse is meant for someone else, and knowing the content they are certainly powerful people.

The Platchi won’t dare put these spells in the market, they will be attacked by many interested forces if they did that.

So Rex is certain that this is for someone else, the Platchi only acts as a courier to be lowkey.

It is certain that a higher rank family than the Platchi is behind all of this.

With Rex’s current state, he is having trouble dealing with the Platchi let alone going against a stronger family than them.

Rex sits on the floor with a frown, he’s thinking hard about what to do.

About ten minutes later, Adhara went out to the balcony and found Rex sitting on the floor in thought.

“Rex…”, she called.

Hearing this, Rex looks back with a questioning look.

Adhara then approaches him as she sat beside Rex, “What’s going on? Did Kyran do something that troubles you?”

“He took the wrong fucking box! Just one day into his mission, ONE DAY! and he makes many mistakes!”, Rex shouted in frustration.

It started to overwhelm him, the situation they’re currently in.

Adhara wraps her arms around Rex’s neck as she stares directly into his eyes, she sits on Rex’s lap while gazing at Rex’s eyes, “Calm down, explain to me what’s so bad about what Kyran did”

Hearing this, Rex then tells what Kyran did from start to finish.

Adhara widened her eyes in surprise, she also got shocked by the situation they’re in.

“We’ll be wiped out if they found out we’re the one that takes the box, they’re too powerful for us to fight against”, Rex said with a frown.

He inhales a deep breath trying to calm him down.

But then, Adhara said, “Let’s just put the box in that place, where the Ogre lives”

Rex widened his eyes in realization, this will at least buy them some time to think about their strategy, “The Cluster Domain! That’s a good idea”, Rex said.

He then went inside the house before he met Kyran sitting on a chair.

There’s a trace of blood on Kyran’s mouth, ‘It seems Edward punished him again’

Seeing Kyran is hurt sitting on the chair, Rex then tells Adhara to takes a towel and soak it in warm water.

Rex finally calmed down, “Hey, you okay there?”, Rex asks.

Kyran raises his eyes to meet Rex before he turns his head away, he seems to blame himself for what he did.

Rex then kneels in front of Kyran before Adhara gives him the towel.

He brushes the bloodstain on Kyran’s face gently, “It’s my fault that I hurried your mission, so don’t blame yourself for it”

Hearing this, Kyran’s eyes lit up.

“Tell me, did someone see you take the box?”, Rex asks, he needs to know who knows about all of this.

Kyran then said, “During my observation on the market, I manage to sneak inside and found a man there. He said that he’s punished for doing crimes against the Platchi, so I took him out of there after killing a guy guarding him”

Rex listens to Kyran’s story, he tried to listen attentively to any details he said.

“Then when I interrogate him, he said that he know where the warehouse is. So I told him to guide the way. But just after I get there, the alarm rings and I was forced to take anything near me which brings me to taking the wooden box”

Edward, Rex, and Adhara are listening to him.

Ryze is already put in the other room, he’s not a part of this so he’s excluded.

Rex then said, “Did you kill the guy?”

Kyran shakes his head in reply, he didn’t kill the guy before because he looks pitiful.

Looking at this, Rex shakes his head.

“He hates the Platchi! So there’s no reason for him to tell the Platchi about this, I’m certain of this”, Kyran said trying to defend himself.

Rex glance at Kyran and said, “He doesn’t have any reason, but he still knew about this”

“They will link his disappearance with the timing of you taking the box, he will be targetted and be questioned no matter how far he runs”, Edward added.

“Even if he got caught, he will never tell the Platchi about it!”, Kyran said desperately.

He’s trying to justify what he did to at least lessen the blame, but all of this will only react to the opposite of what he’s trying to achieve.

Rex sighs, “How do you know he will not tell the Platchi? If he got tortured he will certainly spill the beans”

“Even if he’s dead in not telling the Platchi, other forces that wanted the box will surely find him too and make use of his information”, Edward added.

Both of them are lecturing Kyran about how things work, everything he does has an implication.

That is why both Rex and Edward are trying to tell Kyran that he needs to think this through, all of his decision will have implications.

Kyran realizes that both Rex and Edward are educating him, he then nodded his head.

There’s no point in arguing, he knows that it’s his wrong.

“That is why I need to be ruthless sometimes. I don’t kill if I don’t have to, and I see your hand is not trembling despite you just killed another man yesterday”, Rex said.

He saw Kyran’s hand is calm despite killing another man.

This is something a teen like him shouldn’t get used to, this little details got caught by Rex.

Hearing this, Kyran looks at his hand in shock.

Rex then added, “Don’t be someone you didn’t want, if you don’t want to kill others then don’t bring other people into your problems”

Kyran looks down as he realizes that he got used to killing humans just after killing one man.

Right before Rex went out of the door, he said, “Leave the killing to me”
