59 Someone Who Value His Peace And Quie

"So tell me, Miss Celestina," the middle-aged police chief smiled helplessly as he stared at the amazing beauty that sat in front of him, "Can you please give me a decent explanation for why you aren't registered in any of our databases?"

Who would have thought that twice in the same month he would meet a case where he would meet a person that isn't registered as a civilian of the government, something that didn't happen for over a dozen years.

And not only that…

"Well~ I don't like thinking about the time before I met my hubby," the amazing beauty acted spoiled and coquettishly leaned on a certain silver-haired man that he saw not so long ago, "It's boring and most importantly he isn't there!"

"There, there, Celcel," the silver-haired man smiled like an infatuated teen and consoled her, "You need to tell him so you will be able to live in the city me and not live like a fugitive."

"Fine! I tell him!" the beauty pouted, "But only because you said so!"

"Gosh, I love you."

"I love you more."

"I love you-"

"Stop! Stop!" the police chief stopped them before they will continue like that again. They have been like that for over an hour, ever since they came to the station, "I will be glad if you just tell the story already so that we all save some time."

"Fine! It's all started when I was three…"

Two hours later…

Nex and Celes went out of the police station and then stared at the newly-made ID card of Celes before staring at each other and starting to laugh hard.

"That poor guy," Nex said between laughs, "You dropped on him a long ass backstory and trolled him so much that I thought that he will shoot us at some point!"

"Look who is talking!" Celes was in the same state of him if not more, "Not only did you added useless comments and opinions all the time I spoke, you also gave him a forty-minute lecture about your thoughts about me when he asked you for how did we meet in the first place!"

The couple that made the veteran police chief take a day off along with a bottle of headache medicine laughed for a few minutes before Celes came to Nex and gave him a kiss which he happily returned and shared with her, making the people in the surrounding look at the stunning couple with gazes full of envy.

"How long has it since we had fun from doing something like that?" Celes separated her lips from his and hugged his hand, "If we can have fun like that just at the start, then I can't wait for the future."

"I know, me too," Nex smiled and kissed her head, "But we still need you to get registered as a Hunter before we can properly enjoy our life."

♦♦♦

After arriving at the Hunters Association, it seemed that they were already aware of Nex and Celes's arrival as there was already an attendant waiting for them that lead them directly to the testing room.

"First you appear out of nowhere without any clear background and not a long time passes and you come back with another one," as Nex watched from a side room at Celes getting an explanation from a staff member, he suddenly heard a voice behind him and he turned around and saw a middle-aged man smiling at him, "You sure love to make people suspicious of you."

"You're that guy from the examination," Nex smiled as if he long expected him to appear, "Raymond right?"

"That is correct," the SS-rank Hunter nodded in confirmation and went to stand next to Nex so that he could look at the testing room, "You sure are not a typical Hunter, you are one of the strongest A-class Hunters there was in the last few decades and yet you didn't show any sign of hunting after only one hunting session that you earned in more than what a normal A-ranker group earn in a month full of work. I don't think I ever saw a case like you in any of my years of work in the Association."

"I just don't want to fight more than I need," Nex shrugged without showing much care, "But on the other hand I do feel flattered that a Hunter as strong as you bother to care so much about someone in my rank."

"It is my job to notice whenever there is something going on that is unusual or, abnormal," Raymond spoke simply as if the emphasis he put on the last word didn't exist. He then added as if he is sharing an interesting piece of information, "For example, during the demon invasion that occurred a few days ago, a large hole appeared in the ground of a construction site, normally we wouldn't have worried from something of this caliber as any capable B-ranker could have done it while fighting."

"But the strange thing was that the ground where the hole was made was in fact meant to for building an headquarters of a major guild and so special materials were used to build the foundations of the building. To make a hole of such caliber in that ground will require an S-ranker that used most of his powers at the very least."

"And that's the strange thing," Raymond sighed, "Every S-class and above personal in the city surrounding wasn't in the area of the construction site during that time."

"Wow, it is indeed strange," Nex nodded in agreement and offered his thoughts, "Maybe it was someone that managed to get into the city unnoticed?"

"It doesn't matter," Raymond shook his head, "We have a device that monitors the use of Magic Power in the city area and when we checked its history it didn't show Magic Power of any rank and instead showed a strange fluctuation of force the device didn't manage to analyze."

"Is that so?" Nex seemed somewhat curious, "Must be rare for something like that to happen."

"More than you think," Raymond sighed tiredly, "I am not supposed to tell you this, but the only time something like that happened in the last years was in fact just a few hours ago. A few A-rank Hunters from the top clan Brilliant Night were found in an alley inside the city with severe injuries that would put them in bed for months. We were very intrigued when the monitoring of the area showed the same force fluctuation from the construction site fused alongside something we knew very well," he turned his head and stared at Nex meaningfully.

"An A-Rank Magic Power."

At this moment a bright light came from the testing room and an S letter appeared on the main screen of the testing. Celes turned around and stared at Nex through the window with an arrogant and charming smile that said, 'I am quite good, aren't I?'

Nex smiled back and indicated to her to turn back to the tester and follow their words, "It is indeed very intriguing," he said without turning his smile away from Celes, "And I am very aware of your suspicions of me, it is something I would have done as well if I was in your position, hence the reason I don't put much care to the tailing you put after me."

"But do know this," the temperature in the room sank so much that the air seemed to turn to ice, "I am a man that value his peace and quiet, and the amount of sweat, blood, and tears I spilled to get this peace and quiet are far too great for me to even allow a small dent on it."

For some reason, Raymond couldn't get himself to move his body in any way. All he could do is to listen as his body unknowingly started to profusely sweat from stress.

"You can put surveillance on me outside of my home and you can suspect me for doing things that seem out of place," Nex then turned his head and stared straight at Raymond with a cold expression, making the latter feel as if he fell to an abyss, "But do know this, the moment you decide to take a step forward, you better do it by coming straight to me. There is a tranquillity in this place I would very much prefer to keep unchanged."

Raymond felt a terror that burrowed deep into the marrow of his bones and shook his souls, even when he met Ascenders he didn't feel this stress and fear. It was like he was standing in front of a giant beast that lived for countless years and he was no more than a bug in front of it. But there is one thing that kept bothering him the most.

All of this pressure and aura that made him feel weak and helpless were clearly at the A-Rank power level.

But his years of experience didn't allow to fall just like that and he opened his dry mouth in order to speak, "Just what are you-"

"Hubby did you see that?" a beautiful voice cut him off and an incredibly beautiful woman ran to the silver-haired man embrace, "I got a rank above you and peak-level at that! What do you think? Jealous aren't you?"

"Don't be childish Celes," Nex earlier expression vanished and turned to a smile as he flicked her forehead, causing her to pout cutely, "We both aren't going to use our power actively in the near future so there is no point in useless stuff like that."

"Hmph!" she snorted after not getting the response she wanted, "Wait till I show you what I can do in the combat result and then I dare you to be so calm!"

And along with those words, she turned around and walked with the tester that wanted her to follow him but didn't dare to get close because of Raymond's presence.

"She calls me a moron when she is acting childish herself," Nex sighed and was about to follow her before he suddenly turned back to the disoriented Raymond with an amiable smile.

"I am sorry if I was too extreme, but nevertheless, my words still stand true. I am not someone who wants to cause havoc and destruction and I can assure you that the two events you talked about weren't originated by my hand. Furthermore, I can even willing to offer my services if you occasionally find some cases that don't seem right. The methods I learned were a little different from the norm and I can assure you will find them helpful more than once. So if you sometimes find yourselves in a problem, feel free to call me okay?"

"Okay," Raymond couldn't do anything but listen to him and nodding mechanically at the end of Nex words.

"Great," Nex smiled and turned around and began to walk quickly as if he wasted too much time before starting to run, "I have to go now before my wifey blow-up the place!"

♦♦♦

"You could have held back a little you know?" Nex sighed as he walked with Celes to the shopping center where Jane and Elise were waiting for her.

"It isn't my fault that my opponent was too weak!" Celes complained while twisting her nose like a spoiled kid, "His control was all over the place and his techniques were subpar, besides aside from a bit of trauma the wounds he received will heal after a few days at most! So I don't see what all the fuss is about!"

"It was probably more than a bit of trauma," Nex smiled bitterly.

Different from lower ranks where one may have different specializations and combat powers, almost every S-Ranker and above hold the combat capabilities of ones. So when it comes to testing the combat capability of a Top-Ranker(S-SSS ranks) it is no more than exchanging a few basic moves with a fighter in a similar rank to prove one's combat proficiency.

But since no one told this to Celes, she thought she needed to beat her opponent to submission to pass to test. And what followed after was a brutal beat-down on the unfortunate S-Ranker that thought he won a great chance to fight against a beauty such as this one. Although the physical injuries weren't serious, it seemed that the poor man would need some professional help to recover his wounded mentality.

"Never mind that now, there is something else I want to ask you," Celes rolled her eyes and turned to him with a questioning gaze, "Your talk with that man, what was that all about? I thought you didn't want to attract much attention from people?"

"Oh? That?" Nex smiled as if he expected this question, "I realized that acting as a nobody is too fake and easy to see through once I do something. So I purposely left them some clues and showed them signs of me not being a nobody, by doing so I will make them think of me as someone capable that they can't reveal to the public for their own good. As a result, I will be able to use some abilities and won't attract much attention from anyone other than them."

"Oho?" Celes lifted an eyebrow and snickered before putting her hand on his forehead.

"What are you doing?" Nex stared at her with a questioning gaze.

"Just checking you don't have a fever," she giggled, "I didn't think that you will be able to think on a plan so clever on your own."

"You know very well that I am not that stupid," Nex shook his head and pinched her nose, "Preias wouldn't be even half as advanced without me."

"I know, and I say as all the people of Preias that I thank you for giving us the cellphone, home applicants, and sanitary napkins," Celes pretend to bow respectfully while she continued to laugh, "But to suddenly hear you say something like that while you still having a hard time getting used to your emotions, I have to say you caught me off guard!"

"It is quite bad isn't it," Nex smiled gloomily, "Maybe I should have unsealed it by stages instead of letting it all out at once."

"Here you go again being hard on yourself," Celes saw his expression and smiled gently, "You act like that means that you are starting to relax and open up, both you and I know very well that you will be able to act in your 100% when you will be needed to, the fact you came up with this plan in your current state just further proves it. So just loosen up will you?"

"Sure," Nex smiled.

"Good," Celes nodded satisfyingly, "Now tell me about the game you mentioned about earlier, seeing your face when you talked about it showed you quite enjoyed it."

"Ha! You don't know the half of it!" Nex snorted, "Thanks to this game I got to enjoy something I stopped to dream about long ago!"
