Chapter 397

Chapter 397: [Bonus chapter]Blade’s edge adventurer party.

Once it was confirmed that Blake had advanced to the Hero realm, none of the demoted 2nd-year students dared to cause trouble in the open. Even the cases of bullying that happened behind closed doors had plummeted.

The magic school became quite boring for Blake because, with his enhanced body and mana control, he was completing every class and exercise with ease.

This made Blake invest more time in training himself, personal projects, and adventurer missions.

On the class-free day of the 10th week of school, Blake alongside Castiel and Brian made their way to the adventurer association in search of a mission to keep them busy.

“Hi Susan, is there any interesting mission up?” Having completed every private mission given to his adventurer party, Blake had to go for public missions on the billboard.

“Yes, there is actually one that just came in right now, which I just posted on the boards.” Susa answered.

“The Blade’s edge adventurer party just discovered a relatively new ant colony. So they are looking for another team to help them clear the hive.” Susan explained.

.....

‘It has been more than 3 months since the beast tide. So beasts should have repopulated to a certain extent, talk less ants.’ Blake thought when he heard the job description.

“So are you interested in the mission?” Susan asked.

“Yes we are, but we have certain questions we would like to ask this adventurer party for safety reasons.” Blake answered after discussing it with Brian and Castiel.

After the attempted assassination, Blake couldn’t trust any mission, especially those that took them outside the city.

“Luckily they are still in the building.” Susan contacted the communication amulet leader of the Blade’s edge adventurer party.

After informing him about the order of chaos’ power level and adventurer rank, the leader of the 5 man adventurer party decided to meet them.

“Is this the order of chaos team you were talking about?” A muscular man with thick mutton chops beard asked Susan.

“Yes, Adventurer Bradly, this is the Order of Chaos adventurer party. This is Adventurer Zero, Grock, and Hades.” Susan said. “Adventurer Zero, this is Adventurer Bradly the leader of the Blade’s edge adventurer party.”

The leader of the 5 man adventurer party stood at a height of 5’11 feet and seemed to be in his mid-thirties. His muscular physique, bald head, thick voice, and Mutton chop beard made him look like the perfect description of a warrior.

‘Just like I thought, the rumors are all fake. It is impossible for someone this young to do so many things.’ Badly thought before speaking to them.

“You said you were interested in the mission and wanted to ask a few questions about the job description?” Bradly said in an annoyed tone as he felt his time was being wasted.

Blake took note of this but continued with his question in an indifferent tone. “Yes, I wanted to know how dangerous the hive is; the size of the hive, what kind of ant species are we facing, and the average number of ants spotted in the area?”

‘He even acts as if he is on top of the world. I should just reject his offer.’ Bradly was even further annoyed by Blake’s question and was about to reject his request to join them, but that was when a thought came to mind.

‘On a second thought, why don’t I just allow them to join the mission. Not only does their fewer number mean more spoils go to us, but I can easily make the mission miserable for them since we outnumber them?’ Bradly thought with an evil mind-grin.

“The army ant hive is a new one, and because it has been only 3 months after the beast tide, it just came out of the early phase.”

“As for the size it. I personally scanned the area using earth element, and it turns out to be a medium-sized hive.” Bradly explained.

The reason why the recovery speed of beasts was so fast was because of the abundance of resources. this was because the demand was lower than the supply.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

Also, these were magical beasts and their reproduction speed was greater than those back on Earth, especially the insect-type beasts.

[Did you notice how his annoyance suddenly disappeared? He definitely is planning something bad.] The system warned Blake.

‘I know, that is exactly why we should check it out.’ Blake said with a mind-smirk.

From the system’s scan, Bradly was the only one in the Hero realm. The rest were all at the peak of the champion realm. Blake wasn’t afraid because he could solo 4, while Brian and Castiel handled Bradly.

As for chances of it being another assassination attempt, it was very close to being inexistent. This was because, unlike last time when the assassination mission was a private one, this one was a public mission.

“Alright, but we have to make sure your words are true by checking it out ourselves.” Blake said.

“Of course, but you have to sign an agreement to not disclose the location of the hive if you were to reject the mission.” Bradly said.

“I have no problem with that.” Blake agreed to the condition.

Since they always packed everything they needed, the Order of Chaos party wasted no time embarking on the journey beyond to the southern city gate.

‘Scan to make sure no one is following us.’ Blake instructed the system.

He wasn’t worried about the members of the Blade edge adventurer party in the carriage in front of theirs, but he had no idea of the power level of whoever might want to assassinate.

Once they got to the carriage range of service just outside the southern wall, both groups alighted from the carriages and began moving on foot.

‘Keep an eye out for anything that looks suspicious.’ Blake said to Brian and Castiel through the mind link.
