3975 Personal Favor
Note: I had made a mistake of noting Nectar with Elixir. It's now been fixed.
I stopped and took out of my badge, before activating the beacon. I had been here for a week, but now that I finished the mission; its time to return.
Hun!
A minute later, its power had covered me and three unconscious people. A few seconds after that, I appeared on a familiar disk.
I immediately got out of it and handed three people to a black-uniformed man waiting for me beside the disk, before going to the mission hall.
I could go back to my suite and file the report later, but I did it first.
I don't like to keep the things hanging on my head and besides, my clone had already prepared a report. I just need to go there and submit it.
I opened the door to the suite and walked inside.
It had been nearly three months since I had started doing missions again.
Four since I had returned from Avros.
I had gone on the mission, the moment, I healed fully. It was the third mission, I did; it had lasted for the five.
Shortest of all three; the longest had been a second mission. Which is the infiltration kind, which I had finished in twenty-seven days.
It was supposed to last longer, but I had got the information, I needed within twenty-seven days.
I plan to rest for two to three weeks before I accept any mission. This time, I plan to spend some time choosing the mission.
This one was too easy; the reason it took time was because the cultist bastards took time to appear.
Subduing them was easy, but I had to make it seem like it was a challenge.
I am facing the challenges. I had thought. I would face.
I have not revealed my strength to the organization.
It would be suspicious if I were to reveal my true strength, which is likely strongest among the Sky Sovereigns, and every day, it is getting stronger because of my methods.
The mist changes had remained inside me and, due to it, each session was still extremely dangerous, but it was also providing me massive benefits.
I am approaching the limits fast.
It is why, I planned to do the mission for a few more months, till I reached the limit, before focusing my all on the inheritance.
I am making good progress in it, but not as fast as the methods.
They are going really fast.
I wish I could disclose even 75% of my strength, but I couldn't. That too, will be too risky, and due to that, I couldn't get the type of mission, I needed.
I had chosen the two missions carefully. I was lucky with the first one. It was a challenge.
The third one was not.
Thankfully, the second one which I had got from Prime Aevith's office was interesting enough.
I shook my head and went to the shower, before coming out and cooking myself a late lunch.
Soon, I finished the lunch and started eating alone.
Buzz!
I was eating when my badge buzzed. I stopped and opened the message and was immediately surprised.
It is Prime Volsnorth, and he summoned me.
The message surprised me, but I was more surprised by the time. He is not summoning me tomorrow or tonight, but for the next hour.
I have to meet him in an hour and seven minutes.
"I wonder what it's about?" I couldn't help, but ask myself.
It would be the first time, I would be meeting him since my birthday, when he came to take nectar.
I put the badge back to my chest and finished the lunch, before washing the dishes. Once done, I lay on the couch with my eyes closed.
I opened them ten minutes before my meeting and walked out of the suite.
A few minutes later, I appeared in front of the big building. It is tall and made of black marble; it is beautiful.
This is another strange thing.
Usually, I meet Prime Volsnorth at his residence, but here I am meeting him in his office.
I walked inside and took the elevator, before coming to the door floor.
Click!
I looked around for a moment before entering inside. Stepping into the office of Prime Volsnorth.
Saying it is big, but not too big.
Unlike Prime Aevith's spartan style, Prime Volsnorth has things or rather trophies.
Seeing some, my couldn't help but lit up.
"Sorry, for calling you so suddenly, just after you returned from the mission," he said as I walked inside.
"It's fine," I said as I looked at the amazing view from his office.
"Take a seal, Micheal," he said, and I sat down in front of me.
"Something, happened?" I asked, and he shook his head, before nodding.
"You could say that," he replied, and I arched my brow in question.
"I have a personal favor to ask to you," he said after a moment of silence, while my expressions turned serious.
Primes don't usually, ask for favors from those below their level. When they do it, usually it is important and, most importantly, dangerous.
"What is it?" I asked.
Instead of answering, he tapped on his desk, and a massive map appeared on the desk.
"This is a realm of Aris Kem. A Sky Sovereign ruin, quite big and powerful. In this, realm, there is a place, called the castle, and that place produces a resource, halnx liquid,"
"The castle produces a certain amount of it in every three years."
It's Sky Grade, near Prime Grade, but at every three hundred and twenty-two years, the halnx liquid, it produces is a grade above," he said, before shaking his head.
"I misspoke. Its grade didn't change, but it got infused with the power of laws."
"Earth Laws to be specific and I need it," he stated, looking directly into my eyes.
Creation is hard, cheer me up!
