Chapter 585 Exploring Varying Possibilities

Rey's breathing felt heavy.

He had thought, for sure, that his theory would be correct—or at least show some bearing in reality.

'None of these faces and names resemble her at all. If she wanted me to find her, she would have left something behind. Anything...!'

Initially, Rey was chill about it. When he checked for the first time and didn't find her, he was sure he just missed something.

But, after twelve times now, going over the documents of every single Adventurer that had registered from the day of his coma till present, he found nothing.

'In checked all the details—even the information of all the Quests they've taken. Yet... nothing!'

Rey felt stuck.

More frustrating than his growing anxiety was the fact that he had to suppress it every time so he was forcibly calm about everything.

The cycle continued for far too long that it began to grow infuriating.

Unfortunately, when he stopped actively controlling that portion of his emotion, the System did it for him—forcefully granting him full clarity

"Okay, so what if she didn't register as an Adventurer? She could still be in the city, right? There are people who challenge the Dungeons without being Adventurers, right?"

"Yeah, but that's illegal." Noah said while shaking his head. "Esme doesn't strike me as someone who would go down that route.

Not only would that be morally wrong—something a 'Good' person like her wouldn't resort to unnecessarily—but it only made it harder to find her.

"If she wanted you to find her here, wouldn't she have registered?"

If there was no record of her, it most likely meant she didn't choose to stay in the Adventurers City.

"Does that mean... the second option is what she—?"

"I already told you that it's a dumb proposition. I'm sure there are other ways to explain her disappearance." Noah folded his arms and raised a brow, staring at Rey with curious eyes. Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

"You know her best. What could she have been up to?"

"Well, there are many explanations, in all honesty." Rey responded as he leaked out a misty sigh.

'You already have Alicia, so leave some ladies for the rest of us.' He wanted to shout out loud, but he maintained his composure.

'So what will it be, Re—?"

"Well, I guess that's fine." His response was curt and detached, almost as if he didn't care at all.

"For real?"

"Yeah. I mean, if you want to shoot your shot... that's fine."

Noah didn't know if Rey was truly cool with it, but he didn't dare prod any further.

'He's already made his position clear! Looks like I'll have to work hard to find her before he does.' His eyes gleamed as he rubbed his hands together.

'Even now, I can't get her out of my head.'

"In any case, I have to leave now." Rey opened a portal almost as soon as he said that.

"Once again, thanks for everything. I wasn't surprised you became the Guildmaster. As long as you have Britta and the others by your side, I'm sure you'll be fine."

"Pfft! Well, yeah. They do most of the work for me anyway."

"I figured."

The two boys laughed, almost reminiscent of old times.

It was obvious that there were a lot of questions they had to ask each other, but now wasn't the time. As such, they made the unspoken decision to postpone their talk to another time.

"How do you plan to locate Trisha? Should I ask someone to fetch her for you?"

"No need for that." Rey grinned, his eye glowing crimson. "I already know where she is."

He already placed Tracking Magic on her, so not only was he aware of her position in real-time, but he could also teleport there in an instant.

"Later."

~VWUSH!~

In a gust of spatial energy, Rey vanished completely.
