297 Escaping Victors’ Claw [2]

“Where is my sister?”

Julia made her entrance with one of the Rank-E guards held in her one hand.

“T-They are kept here!”

The guard cried.

He wanted to get away from this devil as soon as possible. Victor has given the order and one of the guards has gone to handle it. But as soon as he was gone, their camp was attacked and every guard was beaten down.

She only kept him conscious as she wanted to know where they were being kept. Along the way, he could feel his intestines hurting due to him being pressurized by her aura.

“Sister!”

Elysia called out as she happily jumped up toward Julia. She was so scared that her sister might not make it in time. Thankfully, in the nick of time, she arrived to save them.

“Elysia!”

.....

Julia happily called out as she threw the guard she was holding far away as if he was a useless thing.

“W-Who are you?”

The guard who was fighting with Yui and Elysia asked. He trembled in fear as he knew that the woman in front of him was extremely strong. He didn’t understand how she knew about the location which was hidden from others.

-BANG!

With a flick of her hand, Julia flung the guard into the wall, making him unconscious. She didn’t care one bit about the people who dared to imprison her sister and only saw them as something that she needed to dispose of.

As for answering his question, he didn’t deserve that.

“Are you hurt? Did they do anything to you?”

Julia asked, concerned about her sister’s well-being.

“No! We were lucky that you arrived in time!”

Elysia said. She and Yui would have died if Julia was even a second. She was lucky that her sister made it in time.

“Thank God! I don’t know what I would have done if something had happened to you!”

Julia felt relieved to see that nothing terrible had happened to her. Though she was angry that her sister was kidnapped. Now that Elysia was safe and her worries were relieved, she was furious at the kidnapper who dared to kidnap her beloved sister.

She punched a nearby wall to release her anger.

-BANG!

The wall had a huge crack as if it would fall down any moment. As a Rank-A agent. Her causal punch was more than enough to collapse a wall made of concrete.

“Sister Stop! Stop! We will be buried alive if you punch again!’

Elysia said, trying to calm her sister.

“Ah! Sorry!”

Julia said as she regained her calm.

Even though she had beaten down every guard that was employed there, her anger would not subside as long as she didn’t beat down the mastermind behind this kidnapping. Though she knew that her revenge had to wait.

She knew her priority and wanted to evacuate Elysia and her friend before investigating the villain behind her sister’s kidnapping.

( You may live for a few more days! )

Julia thought. The villain would certainly be killed as long as she said. As someone working for the intelligence department at The Authority, it was easy for her to find the perpetrator as long as there was some evidence.

Yui who was standing there realized the identity of the one who opened the door and was relieved. Initially, she thought it was reinforcement from the guards and was scared, not believing they would be able to survive.

Well, to her surprise, it was Elysia’s sister. She knew that they had been saved.

“This is my friend Yui Ernest!”

“Thank you for saving me!”

Yui said with gratitude. Even though she knew that Julia came to save Elysia, it didn’t change

the fact that she saved her life as well.

“No need to thank me!”

Julia said as she looked at Yui carefully. She already knew who Yui was, not because she was her sisters’ friend but because she was Hiros’ sister. As someone who worked for the intelligence department, she had seen information about Yui.

“The commotion just now might have alerted their boss. We need to get out of here before they get here.”

Julia said indicating that they needed to escape.

Yui and Elysia nodded in agreement.

In Julia’s case, dealing with her enemies was not difficult. Even though she didn’t know how strong their boss might be, judging from the rank of their men, she knew that she could take care of him.

Still, the rank was unknown and she didn’t know their numbers, so she decided to retreat first. In addition, she had to protect Elysia and Yui as well, so she decided it was wise to retreat.

Though she would very much like to find the boss and kick his ass.

******

That’s when they noticed Hiro who was also searching for them. Since he didn’t have the artifact that Julia had to show the location of Elysia and Yui, he could only go to the address given by Victor.

“Once again I would like to thank you!”

Hiro said as he bowed to Julia.

“Sure!”

Julia said as she accepted his gratitude.

“Right, I want to ask whether you know who was behind this incident?”

Julia asked. Unintentionally her killing intent leaked out a bit. As long as she knew who it was, she would go there and split his head.

“It was someone called Victor. Though he had already been killed by me!”

Hiro answered. He knew that Julia wanted to kill the one who ordered him to kidnap Elysia, so he said that he had already killed him.

“Victor?”

Julia was surprised to hear Hiro’s answer. Not by the fact that Victor was the one who asked to kidnap Elysia but by the fact that Hiro was able to kill him.

She knows who Victor is.

Victor was an infamous troublemaker who would regularly find himself going against The Authority people due to various crimes that he committed. In the end, it was only because he belonged to the GreyRat Guild and was Rank-B that he was not imprisoned.

Julia was surprised when she learned that a student had killed a Rank-B.

( I guess that is to be expected from someone who The Authority is keeping their eyes on. )

Julia thought.

“Do you know their purpose?”

Julia asked. She was still not sure why Victor had kidnapped her sister. If someone was targeting her sister, she knew that she had to guard her or take out the mastermind. She didn’t believe that Victor would be the one to kidnap her sister as there was no benefit for him to do so unless he was ordered by someone else.

“I think Victor was aiming for my life. They kidnapped Yui to lure me out. As your sister was with my sister, they must have kidnapped your sister.

Sorry!”

Hiro said apologetically. She was apologizing to Yui and Elysia, who were both kidnapped because of him. He was guilty that because of him, other people were suffering.

“It is okay!”

Julia replied. She knows that it is not Hiro’s fault, but those who dare commit crimes that are to blame.

She felt relieved having heard Hiro’s answer. Since no one was targeting Elysia’s life, she felt much more at ease. Though she felt sad that someone as talented as Hiro’s life was being targeted but as a genius that is to be expected.

It is not rare for an enemy or one’s guild’s rival to target their talented people. It is also not rare that some jealous guy targets your life just because you are too talented.

“Did you offend Victor or something?”

Julia asked. Even so, it was weird for Victor to target Hiro’s life. She thought that Hiro might have some conflict with Victor, otherwise, Victor would not dare do what he did.

Hiro would be drafted into The Authority once he was an adult. Victor was taking a big risk by trying to make The Authority his enemy.

Usually, only the Dark Guild and Devil contractors would go against The Authority. It was normal for them to send assassins against Hiro and other people of The Authority. ????????????????????????????. C????m

“I don’t! I don’t know why he wanted to kill me. Maybe someone told him to kill me!”

Hiro answered. This was his first meeting with Victor, and he didn’t even know his name until he checked his phone for any clues about his sister. If not for his sister being kidnapped, he would have never even met that guy.

“Have you offended anyone recently?”

Julia asked. She wanted to try to pinpoint who was the real person behind Hiro’s assassination. Not only because she needed to take revenge but because The Authority agents are also asked to safeguard Hiro.

“Recently?”

.....

Hiro began to think. His recent activity was mostly training in the dungeon, so there were only a handful of people that he met, much less offended. Suddenly, his eyes widened as he came to a sudden realization.

“Professor William …”

Hiro muttered. The only one he could think of was Professor William with whom he had fought.

“Professor William? That jerk?”

Julia said not bothering to conceal her disgust.

As a friend of Mia Frostine, she knows who that person is and she totally hates him. She thought that he was just a bug trying to latch onto her friend. Professor William’s father, who worked for The Authority, was the only good thing about him.

“.... It is possible that it is him.”

Julia said. Considering his past actions and behavior, she believed that if Professor William had a conflict with Hiro, then he would definitely try to take revenge.

“However, we cannot be certain. I will investigate this incident properly and see who the real perpetrator is. You should lay low for now.”

Julia said. As a person who worked for the intelligence department, she knows that information needs to be correct before one takes action. She asked him to refrain from doing anything to him until she found out.

( Don’t let me catch you! )
