Chapter 68 There Is Always A Way

'I could do that?' Hisha questioned out of curiosity.

This was enough confidence boost for him to be eager to test out to what extent it would go.

Before Hisha could use the ability on him, Kritz readily opened up to what he had encountered.

"It had referred to you as a Vandrik and disappeared the moment it came?"

Blinking a few times at the strangely weird question, Kritz nodded to affirm once more.

Seeing the disturbed and agitated outlook on his face, Kritz tilted his head.

"I'm deeply sorry my lord." Kritz apologized for keeping his actions a secret.

Giving a nod of acceptance, Hisha exhaled and patted Kritz on the shoulder.

"When you do prepare for the next tournament, I hope to see something worth experiencing for myself."

Kritz gave a slight bow of respect to Hisha's words and hoped there wouldn't be anything that could disrupt the smooth running of the tournament.

Not sparing another look, Hisha walked off to his room.

'It's best if the lots fall into a lot of duels that's going to be entertaining.'

Hisha had a wicked smirk, confident in a few of them.

Meanwhile,

In an undisclosed location,

Smash!

Crash!

"Aaaaaahhhhhh!!!!" A loud shrill of anger created a deafening effect on those who were present.

Stomping her feet and throwing about everything she could think of that might work.

"Who the hell sent that puppet to infiltrate the citadel?"

Her partners all looked at one another, unsure of what they could say to their leader in a feat of anger.

Yoru glared daggers at the two of them, angry that she had been kept in the dark for such trivial matters.

Silence!

"That wasn't the right time to go with the plan you dimwits?!!" She raged, ready to take up the challenge of their words.

"We apologize for the unprecedented intrusion." One of the males responded on behalf of the other.

'Speak about yourself, I refused to be punished alongside you, all of these are just mere words and petty actions.' Gregg rolled his eyes at the plea on their behalf.

Unlike the first time they had made their appearance in the forest, Gregg looked way less mysterious without his hood on.

Dressed in an open shirt beneath his vest that shows his chest, two belts, black pants, and black boots with knives hidden inside their heels.

Without his hood, it revealed his black upwards-spiking hair that would be covered by his hood on several occasions.

"How can I believe what you say? You are the one who was trying to soil our plans." She pointed an accusing finger at Gregg.

Gregg pointed at himself, feigning having nothing to do with the shadow he had created and controlled with his Sux.

Yoru opened her palms and had him pull forcefully toward her outstretched hands, "you despicable idiot!"

Grabbing a hold of his neck, her red eyes glowed with burning rage. "Do you know how far you have ruined what we've built on?"

More focused on being set free, Gregg held her glare, "why do you think we had been hiding our tacks and presence when we went for some spying?"

The other hooded male clapped his fingers, enjoying the fun while it lasted. "Gregg, it's best you beg for forgiveness."

They had stuck together through their rough times, cultivated their energies together, and built up their body and Sux strength.

Best

Gregg could feel the breath in him fail and he would be forced to surrender.

"I am sorry, I was wrong." He conceded and coughed out to relieve the strain in his stomach.

Not feeling the need to be secretive about her main objective, just like the Triad Unity that they represent, they could either make or break up the team.

"We need little Vandrik for our plans, always remember that!"

With Kritz embedded in their plans, they could make their trio a quadruple and fortify their spell which could trap the supreme overlord.

"I had tried to cajole him but to no avail!" Gregg hinted at what he had tried doing with his shadow puppet but failed.

"There is always a way, and when we get our Sux replenished, they would be feeling more of our presence." Gregg declared enthusiastically.

Unable to stay mad at him, Yoru nodded her head and exhaled. "We need to double up the Sux replenishment."

Calling him forward as well as that of the second, she had a smug smile on her lips.

They all shared knowing looks as she walked ahead of them, beckoning them to follow her.

The next day,

Hisha's room,

Yawn!

Stretching and turning in his sleep, Hisha opened one of his eyes and observed his surroundings, it had been quiet and different from what he had felt for such a long while.

"Is it today?" He muttered to his system.

[Did you have a good night's rest?]

HTC teased watching its host turn continuously with a broad smile present.

'Character status!' Hisha questioned, hopeful to get the update of what he needed.

Hisha rubbed his eyes and stared at the Sux level which had been replenished.

Rubbing his chin, he narrowed his eyes at the stats before blurting out the question that had been bothering him.

'What the hell did I do in my sleep?' Hisha turned to his side, letting out a sigh of relief.

[Aside from having wet dreams, you slept like a log up until now that you had changed your position]

HTC explained with a sarcastic tone to it.

'How could I get a full Sux without doing anything?' Hisha gaped at the character status.
