Chapter 70 Conspiring
[Ding....
Compiling...analyzing...
]
Inside of Leon's head, an announcement resounded as the systems interface ran some data.
They were currently in an open head restaurant, the type used for the faceless mercenary company's test. Leon, who was cloaked with a black robe as the practice of all faceless mercenary company members. had a book in front of him that read.
A Rank mission: Request for protection on equipment delivery.
This was the Mission given to Leon by Half-moon, it contained the Mission details and several other tips like the clients' name, personality and a general overview of what was needed. But Leon had the system run its one analysis so he could get a better view on what this was.
[Ding!!!!
The system has completed analysis....
Results:
Peri, otherwise known as evil peri, the current head of the Jade tools mining company of Duan city, has requested a special unit be posted to her on her yearly visits to her late husband's family, the kentow family's household in the North of Duan city.
Caution: there appears to be a fued between the kentow family and the client. Establishing a good guard team with trusted Allies is very important for this to work.

The system made quick work of the document in front of him and gave him appropriate measures and strategies to take any problems they might face head on.
"Hmmm, it's good, huh?" Leon looked across the table at Ember, who was chopping down grilled meat and rice balls.
"Uh huh" she nodded subconsciously for a brief moment, then suddenly she remembered that Leon was the one who spoke.
"Father, if there's a chance that Anan is alive, I think we should do something to make sure...." right beside the throne, a young man with similar eyes to the marquee spoke.
"Hm? Like what?" The marquee asked. This was his beloved son Lucian. He was actually his only legal son by law and his true heir. Unless he was killed by his other brothers, he would inherit the family fortune.
"This was done by the child of the disgraced knight, right? There's only one way to get her, we need to capture or at least corner him. Then she will definitely show up with her accomplices, then we will get them" Lucian explained.
If they could corner Arian's dad, then it would be smooth sailing from there, with her new-found power, she would certainly make the mistake of marching to his rescue, there, and then they would capture her and get info about Anan.
"Hmmmm, this is not a bad idea!!! Yes, let's do it like that!!!" The marquee stood up in excitement. On his face was a wicked and sadistic smile.
"Alaric, you've failed me once, so I won't give you the opportunity to do so again. But I will give you the opportunity to redeem yourself, from now on, you will be under my son Lucian. Make sure you follow his commands to the letter." The marquee paused before looking around the hall.
"I do not want to see your face until you've captured the disgraced knight" the marquee decreed.
This stunned the entire crowd.
Capture the disgraced knight? Was that even possible? Wasn't the disgraced knight a level 4 mage? Could the marquee himself capture the knight if he wanted to? How was he expecting Alaric to succeed?
Soon enough, this decree spread like wildfire. The marquee Cane had decreed for a citywide manhunt for a level 4 mage. This was absurd even to the layman.
And to those who knew the gap between those levels, they could only stare and laugh, while still paying close attention to the development.

Eastern Duan city.
Market area.
Three faceless men stood in an alleyway in the market observing a store right in the middle of the marketplace.
This store was huge and eclipsed most of the stores in its surroundings. It even had its own compound.
"We're sneaking in? Isn't that uncalled-for?" Arian asked Leon from the side.
"Hehe, it's just to show how lacking her security is" Leon responded with an evil smirk behind his mask
