Chapter 246 246 Monica
Nadia and Kacie were both standing outside the dormitory, ready to help him move into their new home and pack his belongings when he returned.
Kacie took it upon herself to mention Alder, who hatred Zavier.
"I'm still baffled as to why he's after me, I admitted." Zavier seemed a little perplexed.
"It doesn't matter now that he's been arrested," Kacie said with a grin.
Zavier reacted with surprise and recoiled. "Doesn't that seem like an excessive amount of punishment? After all, he was just trying to teach me a life lesson."
Kacie responded, "It has nothing to do with you. I heard that he appears to have been used by others, which has resulted in more damage."
"To employ a third party as a tool in the commission of a crime?" This popped into Zavier's head out of nowhere. Perhaps Alder was simply an idiot who was taken advantage of. After all, preventing backstabbing was the most difficult task.
Nadia, on the other hand, couldn't care less about the political conflict because her thoughts were entirely focused on the happy college life she would have with Zavier in the future. She thought that once she started college, they would have to find a new place to live. She didn't expect that her dad, Val, would move the family to the state capital.
She softly hummed and grinned at the air around her, making her look like a drunken deer.
On their way to their new home, a magnificent villa, the three of them rode in a carriage together.
When they arrived at the gate, Kacie gave the attendant, who was accompanied by Rainbo, the responsibility of carrying the luggage. Nadia approached Kacie and began to follow her.
The maid unlocked the door and the three entered. It felt exactly like being at home, with everything looking exactly the same as it had before. Nadia smiled as she imagined her future life, when she would be able to live in this beautiful home with her adored older brother.
It did appear to be a little extravagant.
Rainbo eventually brought them something to eat after a short wait. As they ate their meal, which was mostly fruits and vegetables, they talked about what happened at school that day. Nadia was having a good time with Kacie and didn't want anything to spoil it for her.
Nadia began getting ready for bed later that night, after Kacie had already gone to bed. Because Zavier didn't have the luxury of leisure time, he felt compelled to get started on his plan as soon as possible. He could now create eight clones, but only he had reached the B rank; the highest rank any of the others had achieved was the C rank. It was critical that he quickly increase both his strength and the size of his team.
He gave orders to all of the clones, telling them to form a decentralized network and travel across the country in search of anyone who could help him. It would take a considerable amount of time. Following that, the clones were separated into their own distinct individuals. He was confident that each of them would search the entire country in order to find the people they desired.
Meanwhile, he needed someone to tell him about the people who lived in the kingdom's capital city. He was curious as to who his opponents would be. This would give him the chance to prepare something.
He gave it a lot of thought before finally falling asleep, and when he went to school the next day, he was surprised to see Dahila had returned. He had assumed she had abandoned him.
"I found what you were looking for." When she handed him a list, Zavier's reaction was unexpectedly startled.
He hadn't expected Dahila to collect so much about potion.She also appeared to be supported by a large family.
"I'm sorry to say that I can't help you with some valuable resources anymore because I've reached the end of my abilities."
Zavier was overjoyed as a result of this. "I'm pleased with how everything turned out." Following that, he asked, "You can tell me if there is anything you want, and I will apply to the organization."
Dahila had made so many contributions to the organization that he felt obligated to thank her in some way. Zavier knew that an organization that demanded egregious things from its members would not be successful.
Dahila's eyes brightened when she heard that. After a brief moment of thought, he cocked his head and declared, "It would be nice to have an ice ambergris."
This caused Zavier to squint, followed by a hesitant smile. "You have a healthy appetite, which is not at all bad. You must emphasize the importance of striking a balance between giving and receiving."
Even though ice ambergris was scarce, there was no market for it. Because it is only useful to magi who have a natural talent for ice magic. Dahila is well aware of her physical limitations, and as a result, she desires to improve her physical strength.
Dahila lifted her chin confidently and declared, "I will give everything I have to become stronger."
Zavier didn't press her for information too hard because he assumed she had a compelling reason for wanting to become more powerful.
He then transferred his consciousness into another clone close to theexchange. He searched the storage area for the pendant Hansa had given him, and then infused it with mana. The pendant reacted quickly, and a voice could be heard coming from within it.
"Hey! Captain, you are there?"
"I need your help. I'm near that exchange from before; would it be convenient for you to come over here?"
"What a coincidence, me too!"
The two then met at the exchange's front door.
Hansa was dressed more casually the last time he saw her, but this time she appeared to be on a date with her boyfriend.
"You've only gotten more beautiful since we last saw you." When it came to compliments, Zavier didn't hold back.
"I'll help you out for your compliments," Hansa said as she spun around.
"That would be great!" Zavier handed her the list of ingredients and asked, "Here are some that I gathered; how many bottles of potion can you make?"
Hansa was clearly taken aback by the amount on the list, exclaiming, "My goodness, did you rob some nobleman?" She realized that this might be a bit offensive, then continued, "There are many different kinds of potion, and according to your list, I can probably make one hundred bottles," she said after a brief pause.
"Not bad," Zavier said, nodding. Following that, he inquired, "Is there anything else I can do for you?" He had the impression that they didn't know each other well enough to help each other for free.
Hansa cocked her head to the side and asked, "Can I see your face?" after a brief pause in which she appeared to be pondering something. She appeared to be anticipating something.
This clearly caught Zavier off guard a little.
He had completely lost trust in other people due to his lifelong history of being targeted for murder. He quickly realized, however, that the young girl had no ill will toward him because he could offer a more realistic exchange of benefits than the young girl seeing his true face.
Hansa was quick to crack a perfectly timed joke, "Haha, I'm teasing you. Will you let me join your organization?"
Zavier agreed without hesitation, saying, "Sure, the organization is lacking elites like you."
Hansa is a skilled healer with extensive knowledge of alchemy. There is no reason for Zavier to refuse. And with someone as capable as her, Zavier would never allow her to engage the adversary in combat.
Following that, Zavier removed a large amount of materials from the storage area, and Hansa then took out a space ring and used it to draw the materials inside.
The space ring was a luxury artifact with its own storage space. Hansa, Zavier reasoned, must have had the support of a wealthy family to get where she was today.
After the important talks were over, Zavier broke his connection with Hansa and went back to the body he had before.
The start of the next academic term was still a long way off, so the majority of freshmen would make the most of their time by improving themselves as much as possible before the start of the new term. This did not bother Zavier in the least; rather, he was bothered by a number of other things.
He discovered Harry was nowhere to be found after an uninvited visit, but he couldn't help but feel a pang of nostalgia for the crusty old man. The residents of the neighborhood are baffled as to where this enigmatic elderly man has gone. He could have been standing around somewhere, watching the girls as they showered.
A large figure came to a halt in front of him, just as he was about to begin walking down the deserted lane alone.
A plump figure stopped in front of him as he left to walk alone down the deserted lane.
"I'm sorry, sexy... Would you rather pretend to be my boyfriend, or get to know the real me? I have no objections to either, man."
Zavier looked up to see a sexy girl in a enchanting pose in front of him. It was impressive that the girl had a mountainous and fat ass.
The young lady approached him right away and asked, "Didn't the Marquis mention me to you?"
Almost immediately, Zavier realized that this person was supposed to be the member Val had mentioned placing on the table to protect him. It appeared that the role that this girl played was that of his girlfriend.
"I was aware of it, but he did not provide any additional information."
The young lady wiggled the swaying fat ass and walked next to him while doing so. "My name is Monica, I'm 21 years old, and I have the S rank and the mage ability's genius tier. Your protection will begin immediately and will last indefinitely, either until the mission is completed or until..." She concluded on a somber note, saying, "you die."
Zavier was unfazed by the provocative statement because he'd been in fights that ended in death before, and he put his arm directly on her waist. "Given what's happened, it's very likely that you'll die a lot sooner than I will."
Monica inquired, looking a little surprised that her work ploy had failed. She did not sever Zavier's hand but did seize his arm. "Isn't it the mutual cooperation that makes the play more realistic? It's the mutual assistance."
Zavier was taken aback by the girl's carefree demeanor. He had intended to take advantage of the situation at first, but he had not anticipated that the girl would be uninterested.
They appeared to be a couple deeply in love as they strolled side by side, arm in arm, along the deserted path.
The two actors' journey had officially begun.
