The Ancient Genes

Somewhere in Arcane

It's been a day since Lisa was kidnapped. she didn't even know what was happening out there.

All the girls there have completely lost their hope. She could see their red eyes and the tear stains on their cheeks. The dark bags under their eyes were the result of sleepless nights.

Zzzzz

Zzzzz

Hm...

She forgot, she was the only exception. The little cute girl with red hairs lying on her lap was the only one who could sleep peacefully in that situation.

Her hope of her hero coming to her rescue had kept her alive even in this situation.

'I needed to find a chance to contact the outside world.' She clenched her hands and moved them to the side of her left thigh to feel the short knife under her dress.

This was her only chance.

Creak!

Suddenly, she heard the door opening.

…

Max scanned his surroundings and failed to find any signs of movement. That place was totally deserted.

'Where in hell did he drop me ?'

He took his smart phone out only to find it blacked out.

'How can the battery be dead already. '

He remembered charging it in the morning. Now that was unusual.

Huff..

There was no use in worrying about that stuff. He needed to get out of that place first.

With that in mind, He decided to move around to find the way to the main street.

He looked around and observed his surroundings as he walked around. That place had a lot of abandoned places. The area seemed to be under seal as he could see dust and greenery on the roofs and walls of the shops and houses.

..

..

Tap!

Tap!

Suddenly his ears perked up as he heard the sound of approaching footsteps. It was just around the corner of the alleyway two houses ahead.

Finally

Max felt a joy for finally finding someone in that deserted place. He quickened his pace to get around the corner.

But there, the next sentence froze him to his spot.

"Is everything ready, we need to take the girls out today."

"Yes, everything is ready. We are only waiting for orders." The other person replies.

"What about you? Any problems with intruders today."

"Yeah, we saw someone with a flying beast a while ago. But luckily he flew away in a short while or we would have shot him down."

"Ha..Ha... He had a lucky day."

Hearing the voices, Max felt a quiver on his forehead.

'Don't tell me!' Max was astounded

He already had a rough idea of his location after hearing those guys. But it was too difficult for him to accept.

Even his bad luck had to have a limit.

...

After calming down, He activated his newly gained «Stealth» skill and slowly, his body started to fade until he disappeared in his surroundings.

That skill was good, that was what he expected.

Suppressing his new found happiness, he decided to trail those guys. He needed to find out the location of the girls.

If it was a normal situation, He definitely would have run out of there to get some help. But then that they were planning to transport them, the situation had become dire.

It was clear that that area was locked down by those guys and his phone had blacked out because of some kind of formation.

Max needed to take down the formation master and immediately contact Murcas for help.

As long as he could get him to come here. It will all be solved.
