Chapter 444: Chapter 444 A Lead

Name:An Owl's Rise Author:


Evelyn carefully trailed behind Uriah as the man made his way through the entertainment venue.

He was not going out of his way to hide his presence, but he was heading towards an area of the building that had no foot traffic.

Eventually he started looking over his shoulders when he thought that he was alone just to make sure that there was no one following him.

Of course, he did not spot Evelyn who was indeed tracking him.

Thanks to her wind magic she could tell exactly where he was without needing a visual on him. She could keep completely out of view while pursuing him.

'There's someone else up ahead.'

As Uriah approached his destination, Evelyn's magic picked up another person that was waiting in an out of the way location that would be impossible to see without the person waiting there knowing.

It was an ideal spot for a clandestine meeting, and that was certainly what was occurring.

'Now what are the two of you up to?'

Once she was as close as she could get without revealing herself, Evelyn enhanced her spell to carry the sound of their conversation to her.

Even from over a hundred meters away, thanks to the acute hearing she had as an owl and the power of her magic, she could make out what they were saying despite the anti-eavesdropping device that had been activated.

Having given his final warning and with their transaction complete, Uriah and the man went their separate ways.

'Which one do I follow?'

Evelyn was conflicted about what to do next. Her original goal was to keep track of Uraih and simply observe him, but now there was a possibility that she could learn exactly what he and Osvaldo were up to here in the Miris Sect.

'I could try and steal his ring that the bead is in, or I can learn what they are after from the informant.'

Weighing her options, Evelyn soon concluded which objective would be easier to complete and less risky. As much as she wanted to continue surveilling Uriah, going after the man he had just met would be more fruitful.

So begrudgingly she switched her targets and began tailing the informant. It might look strange that she never returned for the rest of the performances being put on, but she could not let this chance pass her by.

Without ever allowing her target to notice her, Evelyn tracked him through the city and all the way to a dilapidated building located in the outer district where the lowest ranking members of the Miris Sect resided.

Once they were in a sparsely populated area that had certainly seen its better days judging by the condition of the buildings and streets, the man slipped into a side alley and stopped in front of what looked to be a solid wall.

However, with the wave of his hand, a door suddenly appeared as he released the illusion cast over the area.

He then slipped inside the hidden room and the illusion reappeared behind him. Stay connected with m v l e mpyr

"Seems like he is gathering supplies and getting ready to run. Unfortunately for him, I've got some question to ask before he departs."
