Chapter 364: Four Questions
"Geiza. 31 years old. A tall man with a long beard. He has black hair and black eyes. There is a scar running from one side of his forehead to the other side. His body might not be muscular, but he is fit."
Nathan pinched the bridge of his nose. In the end, Yassen gave a total of eleven names, which were seven of his comrades, his superior, and three hands.
However, there was limited information about them.
Nathan couldn't help but think, 'This is annoying. Considering there are only less than one percent of humans in the world who become summoners, they should have thought about registering them like the hunter novels I have read. Even with this information, it'll be hard to find them.'
Nathan crossed his arms.
"What's the location of your organization?"
"Our meeting location is always changing. I don't know if we have a base or not."
"Tell me all the places you have used as meeting points."
"Gehena Forest, a cave next to Tula River. The…" Yassen listed everything.
Nathan turned to Evelyn. "We have to check each of them. Try to see if there's a hidden room or something."
Evelyn agreed. "Should we wrap it here?"
"I still have four questions." Nathan shook his head. He turned to Yassen. "What do you or your organization intend to do to me?"
"You have been listed as an anomaly. Removing your existence is important to avoid our plans from going awry. After capturing you, we are planning to open you up to see what made you able to summon beasts instead of normal humanoid familiars. Ultimately, you'll die."
Nathan's expression turned cold. "So, what are the plans of the organization?"
"We are planning to capture you, kidnap people, and turn the world into chaos with the sudden appearance of the aliens among humans."
Nathan continued, "What about other important targets? Do you have any other important targets like me?"
"We have three people. You, the Ice Prince of Lexia Academy, and Sage Leyfon. But we couldn't launch our plan because Sage Leyfon suddenly disappeared, most likely due to the information leak from Axel."
Nathan thought for a moment. "In that case, if they turn the people into aliens, won't they also die? The chaos might look good for the psychopath, but in the end, all of them will die as well. Why would they throw their lives away?"
"The new world is about to be born where people live with the aliens inside of them, which will also prevent further invasion. As long as one can maintain their consciousness, the new world will be born."
Nathan let out a long sigh. "I'm done. Do you want to ask anything else?"
Evelyn shook her head. "We know that there's no more information we can get from him due to his low rank."
Bella and the others shook their heads.
Nathan then nodded to Anubis. "In that case, I will leave the rest to you, Anubis."
Anubis nodded and threw them out of his domain while asking, "Alright. Let's move on to your good deeds…"
In the end, he deserved a fair trial according to the contract.
Meanwhile, Bella was impressed. "You've truly outdone yourself. To think that we would get that much information. At this rate, you can become the master of interrogation."
"Not really." Nathan shrugged. "Anyway, I have fulfilled my promise, right?"
"Yes." Evelyn nodded.
"Anyway, it appears they have changed their plan. I'm pretty sure that they are going to leave me be for the time being. During that time, they will try to kidnap the Ice Prince of the Lexia Academy. Who is he again?"
"You don't know him?"
"Yes." Nathan tilted his head in confusion. "All I know is that Lexia Academy is ranked second in the world. That's all."
"Now that I know your strength, I can basically say that you are the strongest freshman. Noelle Flamante can be said to be the strongest among the third-year students, but the strongest summoner among the second-year students is not from your academy."
"Not from my academy? Even stronger than Alavenya, the daughter of the Dragon King?"
"Alavenya is still third among the second-year students within your academy, so I can't really say she is the strongest."
"Hoh?" Nathan looked down, contemplating.
"Yep. His name is Welline."
"Hmm…" Nathan closed his eyes, thinking, 'Ice Prince, huh? Considering he is the strongest, does that mean he has a kind of absolute ice? Either way, I don't think I will have to meet him, so who cares?'
Nathan added, "Anyway, we should check on him, making sure that he doesn't get kidnapped. Do you know why they want to kidnap him?"
"Yep. It's said that his ice is able to freeze everything, even other elements. They must want to know what kind of ice element it is."
"Fair enough." Nathan nodded. "I guess you guys will be busy?"
"Indeed." Bella nodded while sighing.
Evelyn immediately took over by giving the order. "Bella. Your task is to protect the ice prince in secret. Sonia will be in charge of identifying those names. Christopher, you will be going with me to check all those places he mentioned before. Neyeid, you will remain on the base and take down the people once Sonia confirms their identity. Our priority will be those hands."
"Understood."
Evelyn turned to Nathan. "I will drag you again once we're able to find an important person. We need you to interrogate that person."
"Fine. But I'm going to be busy for a while because of a lot of things happening in the academy."
Evelyn's eyebrows twitched. "I will throw in some bonus if you interrogate them right away. We don't have a lot of time."
"Do you think I'm such a materialistic person?" Nathan smiled wryly. "Well, I don't mind if you teach me your abilities… I mean, the knowledge is fine."
"…" Evelyn narrowed her eyes. If she taught him her ability, Nathan wouldn't be able to use it even if he wanted to, since he didn't have the familiar that could give him that element.
Nathan's aim was to get the knowledge so that he could make a specific contract that allowed him to find a perfect contract to borrow the power of a powerful element like space or gravity.
"I'll think about it."
