Chapter 581 [581] I knew it.

[Elaine Parker, POV.]

Why is he getting so involved in this situation? He has never been one to care about small matters like these... Heck, he never gave a damn about his guild mates before. He never cared about anything.

The Alan Peccator I know is mostly someone who...just did what he liked, and almost never got involved in situations that would give him even the slightest discomfort... Unless it was absolutely necessary.

Why...are you getting involved in this... And what is this pressure I am feeling? It's not the simple killing intent that he subtly releases... I have already taken care of that with a spell. But there is something else, Something other than that, which is penetrating my defensive skills and artifacts.

I clicked my tongue, and thought carefully of what to do next.

I can't defeat him, No, not even the entire might of Titan in Shield combined can take this monster on, No matter how much I buff them, Or how much I debuff him... It's simply impossible.

With what I have seen, It would be impossible if even the entire top ten guilds members went at him, using all of their abilities.

The things... I saw him do when in the Tower. We won't even have a chance against Elijah, let alone Alan, the one that defeated Elijah.

What do I do? It's not like I can just stop... If I want to preserve my position and also deal a blow to Twilight, who have been growing their influence without any signs of stopping... I need to do something. I need to follow...orders...

'Ugh.'

I shook off the headache and took a look at him once more. His eyes are not that of a human, as expected of his bloodline. There is something within them that scans my entire being, yet it shows a hint of curiosity, or rather confusion.

What is that? I wonder, but I'm not exactly at the leisure to think about it. Regardless... I have to do something.

"You wouldn't."

I decided to probe a little bit more, it is foolish... But I want to see where it would go.

"Why do you think so?"

"Because I am still heir to Titan, You cannot just-"

"I don't give a fuck who you are."

... Yeah, he was always like this. Acting like he is on a pedestal higher than everyone, of a rank higher than everyone.

"It wasn't her."

Alan said, as he continued to use his dragon eyes on the retreating Elaine.

"What do you mean?"

Sabrina asked him, clearly confused. She herself did a check on her best friend due to the sharp change in her personality and attitude, but figured it was better to ask Alan himself about it, given his superior skills.

"There is something influencing her mind."

"What is it?"

"I don't know. But it's something."

"...?"

"There's like a void gap near her chest, probably a necklace type artifact that's causing it, But I can't just see it."

Sabrina found it hard to understand.

"If it was an artifact, Sir Oliver's detection would have already activated, Nothing can escape his mana."

Alan stopped for a moment, muttering.

"Yeah...mana."

He stood up and said to her.

"Enjoy your break, I'll be back."

"Don't do anything reckless."

Alan didn't respond, and began to go after Elaine, as his body seemingly 'vanished.'

'There's nothing wrong with Sabrina's statement.'

She was actually right, No artifact that would influence the user's mind with mana would go unnoticed by the dozens of detection spells in place in shield...

With mana, of course.
