Words : 1155 Updated : Oct 2nd, 2025

A few days ago. "What? Miss Hana from OpenSky Company is planning to visit this base?" "Are you talking about the heir of the Skylark Conglomerate?" "This is..." The people inside the room fell silent as they didn't know what to say. The news was simply too shocking. Why would such a person actually come to this place? "What is the purpose of that trip? Is she planning to invest in this city?" "No. Why would she even leave her Tier 8 city to go all the way to our city?" They all looked at a single person, who happened to be the city's mayor. He had been the one taking care of this city, but even he couldn't expect this. However, there were two people who seemed to have understood this kind of move. They were the two people who observed Clovis when he first awakened. Yes, the first was Gregory. The second was the other person, who was indebted but didn't want to get involved. Both of them had the same thought. There could only be one reason why such an important person would go all the way to this city. It was definitely related to Hacfield. They didn't know how the matter had been spread, but it seemed that because of the previous incident, Clovis's identity had been leaked out. No, it would be fair to say that his whereabouts had been determined.@@@@ This was why they didn't really want to get involved with the Hacfield family or Clovis. Something like this was bound to happen. And there was no way they could reveal Clovis's identity. In other words, they could only let these people speculate. The mayor looked at the documents and said, "In the official document, it appears that she is trying to test the flight ability of the new battleship." No one believed that they only came for the test. It was pretty clear that they were here for something. However, they weren't in a position where they could reject this kind of person. "It seems that we have no choice but to accept them." The mayor let out a long sigh. "Yes, sir." The others also agreed with him. They had to take care of this person as well as possible. If this person was happy and decided to invest in their city, they might get a good investment. "What about the landing spot?" One of the members asked. The mayor thought for a moment before the president of the Drake Group raised his hand. "If you want one, I have it. There is currently an open field not far from the city center. Since we haven't started the construction, we can lend you this open space for the battleship." "This..." The mayor obviously didn't want to let the private company take advantage, but because the city couldn't be expanded easily due to the wall, there wasn't a lot of space left. It wasn't like they could tell them to park the battleship outside. "Alright. We'll allow the Drake Group to take care of it if no one has problems." The others were unwilling, but they didn't have an open space that big. So, they reluctantly agreed. "Yes. Since we're planning to benefit both parties, how about we only allow people under the age of 20? And we'll be ensuring their lives, so I think it'll be fine if we pick a slightly harder target. What do you think?" The mayor thought for a moment. The proposal wasn't a bad idea. And training the young people would definitely have a big impact in the future, especially when their safety was guaranteed. "I don't have any problems. It's just... when are you planning to do this expedition?" "Let's see. We'll begin in four days. As for the duration, it'll depend on the target and difficulty." "In that case, I'll do my best to fulfill your request." The mayor nodded before turning to Ivan and his guardian. "I believe that Mr. Thomas will allow Ivan to participate?" "Oh?" Hana raised her head as though she were surprised before turning to Ivan. "You might not know, but he is the most talented person in this city. He has a 99% evolution rate and a very good talent for learning all kinds of techniques. He and his group are able to take down a Tier 3 beast while all of them are only Tier 1 explorers." "That's amazing." Hana nodded. "We're nothing compared to Miss Hana," President Thomas humbly replied before glancing at Ivan. "Come. Introduce yourself." "I am Ivan Anderson. Please give me any task and I will definitely not fail you." "Nice to meet you." Hana was still able to smile because Ivan covered the upper part of his head with a mask, not allowing her to see his disfigured face. Once they reached an agreement, there weren't a lot of things to talk about anymore. Hana immediately retired to her room the moment they reached the hotel. She stood before the window while looking at the city. She remembered what her butler said earlier. "There are a few people watching us right now. With this kind of technique, I believe they're related to assassination organizations. And there is someone rather special since he managed to escape from my senses earlier." "Hoh?" Hana's expression remained unchanged. She simply said, "I guess this is the right city. Are those assassins belonging to the Red Dagger?" "I don't think they are that skilled. It should be their branch called Dark Emerald. They're the ones around this area." "What about the other one?" "I couldn't find anything about him unfortunately." Hana thought for a moment and said, "Either way, our plan is to locate the Hacfield family's bloodline. I have thrown the bait, so we'll see if he is going to participate or not. And who is that again? The most talented person in this city?" "From what I can see, that young man has a disfigured face. Considering the cruelty and patterns, I think it's related to those assassins." "In that case, he must have met our target." Hana smiled. "Investigate this person and find our target. Look at every remarkable rumor and story... There's no way someone related to Hacfield won't be talented." "Understood." The butler received the order with a nod before disappearing from the room. Hana sighed. "Now I wonder if he is a person that can be bought with money or not. I have prepared a few things, but if we can get him, we will be able to gain the cooperation of the entire Hacfield family. At that time, who will be able to stop us?"
