Chapter 70: Traitor

Earlier, when Desmond had left the guild building, it was seen by someone from the guild; he came out and then contacted his superior.

"Boss, I got new information about that kid."

Not everyone has a mirror-like Katrina and Desmond; the average person only sends magic messages through their minds. The distance and number of messages sent have different limits for each individual.

His voice was groggy, and sweat was pouring from all over his body. Not only did he pass Katrina's eye test, but he also managed to blend in and clearly looked at Desmond's status.

After waiting so long, he finally received a message.

"Good, come here now."

…

The spies went to a small alley, where the demons or slaves lived.

"Boss, here I am, the one who had the information."

In front of him, a man wearing a clown hat tormented the demon one by one by implanting the cigarette he was holding in the demon's eyes. He was also carrying a cane that seemed to be used for entertainment or a walker.

"Good, now tell me the full details."

This boss is the one who met Grimm in person. He is also part of the guild and the one who accepts Grimm's personal requests.

The spy then explained what happened and informed Desmond's status; having finished saying that, he saw the boss fell silent.

"Then, I'll go, boss."

"Wait."

Stopping in his footsteps, the spy turned around slowly. It was obvious that he was terrified with trembling legs.

"Yes, boss, is there anything I can help you with again?"

Ignoring his subordinates, the boss then stabbed the demon's eyes even more in-depth, this time using the stick he was holding.

The spy expression turned pale when he saw this; he did not understand what the mistake was made at all. His breathing started to become irregular, and he also swallowed the saliva of the bear.

After he finished killing the Demon, he saw the boss approach him and gave him a bag.

"Take this, this is the payment for your hard work. And also continue to monitor the child. "

When the spy heard this, he felt disbelief. He then asked uncertainly, "Wh ... is this true for me, bo.ss?"

The boss didn't answer his men but just turned around and waved.

Seeing this, the spy was feeling happy; he quickly bowed several times before finally leaving the location, leaving his boss with the demons who were being injured.

…

After seeing his subordinate was gone, the boss then killed all of the demons at once by just swinging the staff.

* slash *

His clothes were splashed with blood from the Demon he had killed. Instead of cleaning it with a handkerchief, he licked it.

"It's tasteless."

He then sits on top of the demon corpses while sending a magic message to Grimm.

"Hello master, I have again received the latest information about that child."

Unlike the way he communicates with his subordinates, this time, Grimm immediately sends back the magic message.

"Tell me the details via message," Grimm replied impatiently.

"Okay, so ..."

After retelling the incident he heard from his subordinates, the boss waits patiently for Grimm's answer.

"Good, you do live up to your reputation, Mike." Grimm flattered Mike like he sounded delighted.

Mike is one of the famous mercenaries leaders in Raven Soul Guild; many people don't know this because their mercenaries only focus on searching, investigating, and other things besides fighting.

"Ah, it's not much when compares to Master's reputation." Praising Grimm back, Mike understood that everyone loves compliments.

"This work is done; you can ask for payment through my subordinates."

When Mike heard this, he was confused. "Sorry, master, is this monitoring not being continued?"

"No, from now, I will check the kid," Grimm replied with great confidence.

"All right, nice to work for you, master." Even though they only exchanged messages through thought, Mike still got up and lowered his hat while bowing.

…

Meanwhile, at Grimm's house, Grimm is seen sitting in his office blowing a cup of tea; after he received information from Mike, he immediately canceled all his activities for the day.

"Servant, prepare the horse carriage. We're going to Master Witch Leona's house. "

"Yes, master."

.

.

.

On the way to Desmond's house.

Grimm's horse carriage is traveling at a fast speed. The distance between Grimm's house and Leona's house is very far. This takes one hour if only the horse-drawn carriage is running at an average speed.

While Grimm's horse carriage was speeding fast, the servant who was in charge of driving the horse-drawn carriage suddenly stopped.

Grimm, who is in the horse carriage frowns, he then sees his servant get off and yelling at a child.

Since the servant's stature is taller than a child, Grimm cannot clearly see the child's appearance, but as one of the guards surrounding them says one familiar word.

"Stop, you carriage almost hit, young master Desmond."

On hearing this, Grimm immediately got off the carriage.

…

The sound of the horse carriage door opening drew all attention. Meanwhile, as Desmond saw the person who was getting out of the horse carriage, he narrowed his eyes for a moment before pretending not to see him.

Grimm then approaches Desmond, making even Desmond's guards lower their weapon and salute him.

"Hello, if I'm not mistaken, you are the son of Master Witch Leona?"

Seeing Grimm's expression that seemed as if he didn't know him made Desmond Desmond smile

Old Fox, hehe.

He then made a surprised expression, as if his gaze was focused on Grimm's servant scolding him.

"Ah?! Sorry, who are you? "

Just before Grimm answered, his servant stepped forward and yelled at Desmond.

"Hey kid, watch your words in front of the future Grandmaster Grimm!"

The servant said proudly while looking at the people around him.

In Grimm's mind, he desperately wanted to hit his stupid servant, but it would damage his reputation.

"Ah, yes, my name is Grimm."

Grimm stretches his head, embarrassed to his servant behavior, while extended another hand to Desmond, trying to hand-shake

If this is what you want, then OK, I'll play with you.

Desmond then made an expression as if he saw a god descending.

"Oh ... my, wise Grimm master, nice to meet you."

Desmond shook Grimm's hand violently, indicating that he was so happy to meet him that Grimm almost lost his balance.

"Alright… okay, let's f go into your house, first. There is something I want to ask you. "

Grimm thinks that Desmond still doesn't know his identity as he continues to act friendly.

"Yay ..., do you want to ride my horse carriage?"

Pretending to look excited, Desmond tugged at Grimm's hand.

"Ah ... forgive this uncle, I can't because there is many important items are on my carriage."

Grimm answered with an expression that looked like he was feeling guilty.

"Oh ... it's okay, let's go."

When Grimm says he can't, Desmond's expression becomes disappointed and dejected for a moment before he gets excited again.
