After Alice’s departure, the following day, Desmond practiced sword and magic as usual, but this time, he didn’t hunt demons at night.
Because at that time, he saw many royal troops still hanging around in the middle of the night, which made Desmond confused; however, the next morning, he heard gossip about murderers who roam at night, killing demons and people.
Since then, Desmond’s progress had been stagnant, although his energy could still increase every day, which was small and couldn’t be compared to absorbing a demon corpse.
When he did not find hope, the job he put in the guild finally came to fruition. Many solo mercenaries came to his house with information related to the organization that ‘kidnaps children.’
After receiving some intelligence, Desmond learned that the organization was called the Aristocratic Technocracy Organization.
According to information, this organization had been created since Edward became king, to be precise, after the guild was founded.
The Aristocratic Technocracy Organization was already quite famous for causing trouble in the northern kingdom. Their members consisted of thieves, murderers, slave owners, and many evil people with nobles or former nobles as their upper echelon.
But the most important information Desmond got was that an organization, which usually makes money from robbery, prostitution, and gambling, suddenly kidnapped children.
This made Desmond curious; he started going out in the middle of the night to search for this organization’s information. After many times taking hostages that seemed to be a member of this organization, Desmond received information that their headquarters was in Helmfirth city, where the North Academy was built.
He kept hunting down several people from the organization for one year to get more accurate information about their leader. In the end, he got the info that their boss would be visiting North City tonight.

At night, in Desmond’s room, he read a document with the title, “Top information about North Kingdom.’ Also, there were many documents are messy on the floor, and it seems that for the past year, his room had been full of documents containing information about the Aristocratic Technocracy Organization.
“Status.”

Hmm, there has been little improvement from last year.
Looks like it’s true that I have to hunt demons a lot. At least they give me a random strength or agility bonus.
If other people knew Desmond’s stats, they would think he was a genius because he could reach 15.00, even though it was only on strength.
Usually, a swordsman would reach 15.00 stats at the age of 15. Since then, they have been able to apply to the army and even enlist in the guild.
…
This year, Desmond only trained in his underground for agility and strength and practiced his elemental and sword mastery.
His hair had grown longer until it reached his shoulders; his face also looked more mature, even at the age of 7. His body was also no longer muscular and swollen and had begun to adjust itself to his development due to the mixing of helpful demonic energy.
But in return, his eyes had become even more sinister. Previously, if people looked at Desmond’s eyes ‘like a beast,’ then now, if you looked into his eyes, we could only see a beast with human skin.
While waiting for the upcoming meeting, Desmond suddenly remembered the list of ‘Top mercenaries of Raven Soul Guild.’ Then he got up from his bed, making all the papers initially on his lap messy everywhere.
Shaking his head, Desmond then tidied up the papers before finally heading to the library.
…
Inside the library. Desmond was sitting, reading a book.
Corps of Teleknights, Steel Legion, Void Challengers, and Explorers of the Mysterious.
If I’m not mistaken, Alice is accompanied by a steel legion that contains only female members.
Looking at the library window, the night moon is shining brightly. ” Alice … how are you there? I hope nothing bad happens during the trip. “
[System Alarm Activated!]
[Messages: It’s time to hunt the rat]
When Desmond saw the notification, his eyes turned cold while his lips curved up. “It’s time.”
He returned to his room and took the sword from the wardrobe. ” Last time, the sword my father gave me was broken, and now I have bought a new sword, which is perfect for night hunting.”
Desmond then put on black clothes, a mask, and a shirt covering his hair. “Is this what it feels like to be a ninja?” His voice also changed as Desmond’s mouth was covered by a mask, making the sound even more mysterious. “After this, maybe I’ll re-check what’s behind the underground door.”
With that last word, Desmond then activated a spell that made him disappear.

Midnight, Outer City.
Inside a tavern, A middle-aged man with long purple hair was drinking liquor on the table.
The tavern atmosphere was boisterous, with lots of people chatting simultaneously while several female servants were also serving their customers in the open area. Even some were playing card games while laughing loudly.
The middle-aged man seemed detached; more precisely, everyone in the tavern gave a vast distance away from the man’s table. He seemed to be waiting for someone because his gaze was focused on the door.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang, and he saw another middle-aged man enter with a woman.
“Tch, where are you!” After a few seconds of waiting, the middle-aged man felt bored and looked at the bartender. “Hey, Arfin, how’s business these days?”
“Sorry, boss, it didn’t go the way we wanted.”
Hearing this, he frowned, then told Arfin to come here. “Tell me the details.”
When Arfin arrived, he saw his boss’s expression that looked grave. He didn’t dare to refuse even the slightest bit late. Arfin then explained the situation in this city slowly. “Lately, there have been many troops from the kingdom around at night because of it…”
* thump *
Hitting the table, the man was furious as he looked at the bartender who was prostrate before him. ” Did you mess up? Why must the royal officers roam at night?”
The atmosphere in the tavern, which was initially bustling, suddenly became quiet. They seemed afraid to make noise.
“Please par-don me bo-ss, before it wasn’t like this, but since there’ve been cases of people dying in the streets and slaves who also died, the kingdom had to act.” Looking up, he saw his boss disappear in front of him, and his body was suddenly lifted, making it hard to breathe.
The people in the tavern were getting more and more scared. They moved away from the middle-aged man while seeing a hand emerge from the darkness choking the bartender.
