"Boss, are you sure about this?" Dane asked one more time while Kai drove the car.

Kai looked at Dane, and it was strange for him to speak so politely to someone, but remembering that his instincts were so sharp, he knew Asher was not a simple person.

Asher, who had been silent the whole ride, looked up towards Dane, who turned his head from the front seat. His crimson-red eyes looked at Dane.

"Do as I say," Asher said.

Seeing that Asher would not change his mind, Dane gave up on convincing him.

He just decided not to care anymore. Unlike Kai, who planned everything out, Dane had a tendency to go a bit extra in his missions when he was working with Spyder. This was one of the reasons nobody other than Kai liked to work with him.

They soon arrived at one of the Dungeons that was under Abyss Guild, and Asher was going to create his alibi there. Although it was not necessary since nobody would be able to trace it back to him, he didn't want any loose ends.

"Both of you know the plan, right?" Asher asked as he stretched his neck.

"Yes," Kai replied.

Asher got out of the car as Dane and Kai started following him.

Outside the Dungeon,

"Listen, I want both of your teams to clear this Dungeon," one of the guys standing outside the Lobby spoke to the two men.

But both of them were interrupted.

"Manager, we have an issue," one of the hunters there spoke.

"What is it?" the manager asked with a frown.

"It will be better if you come with me," the guy said as he looked around.

The manager was confused but decided to go with the guy since he knew him personally.

The manager entered the Lobby and saw a young man standing, and behind him were two guys. It was not hard for him to guess the young man's identity.

"Young Master, did you need anything?" the manager asked with a smile.

His previous confident demeanor was gone as he stood in front of the Heir of the Family that ran the guild he was working for. It was not hard to say that Asher would become the Guildmaster of Abyss Guild after seeing his performance in the Representative Tournament.

"I want to practice in that Dungeon," Asher said.

"Oh, you can; we can send our best teams with you," the manager replied."No, we will hunt alone. No need for your teams, and I don't want anyone to enter the Dungeon until we are done," Asher said.

Asher had become a D Rank Hunter, so his presence was much stronger than before, and even the manager could feel it.

"But going with just two is a bit...," the manager said.

The Dungeon was a C Rank Dungeon, so it would make sense why he was worried. Although he could sense that Asher was a D Rank Hunter, he was unsure about the other two hiding their mana.

Hearing him, Dane and Kai flared their mana to show their ranks.

"Oh, if they are A Rank, then it is fine," the manager replied as he noticed their ranks.

eαglesnᴏνel He was a B Rank Hunter, so it was not hard for him to guess what rank Dane and Kai were.

"We will spend a week inside, but don't let the information about me being here spread," Asher said.

"Don't worry, I will do my best to ensure nothing happens," the manager confidently replied.

"Clear the area around the dungeon," Asher said, and the manager left the room immediately to ensure Asher could enter the Dungeon.

A few minutes later,

Asher was standing before the Blue Gate Dungeon as he was about to enter when Dane spoke up.

"Young Master, I received the confirmation about that matter," Dane said.

The manager looked at Dane but didn't think too much about their conversation.

"He will be enough for this dungeon; you can go back," Asher said as he looked at Dane.

The manager watched Asher and Kai enter the Dungeon.

"Are these the mana detectors?" Dane asked the manager.

"Yeah, these are some of our finest ones," the manager replied.

"Will they be fine if I go through them while using my mana?" Dane asked.

"They can handle up to an A Rank Hunter's mana, but the reading might not be accurate," the manager replied.

"Good. Make sure that no one enters the Dungeon while Young Master is inside," Dane said with a serious look on his face.

"Yes, of course," the manager replied confidently.

Seeing his reply, Dane flared his mana.

*Beep*

A sound of a beep was heard."Okay, I have checked them," Dane replied as he looked at the manager.

"Told you," the manager replied with a smile.

Dane quickly went outside, took the car, and drove a bit far from the Dungeon. Finally, arriving at a place where no one could be seen, he stopped the car and stepped out of it.

"Your driving is awful," a voice came from his right.

Dane looked at Kai and Asher, who appeared in front of him.

"Well, my acting was great, though," Dane replied.

The moment Asher and Kai entered the Dungeon, Kai used his special ability to make them invisible, but they still had the issue of the mana-reading devices outside the Dungeon Gate. To counter that, Dane used his mana to mess with the reading for a second, and it was enough for Kai and Asher to leave the premises.

"Wear the items in your spatial ring," Asher said as he took out a mask and a ring from his spatial ring.

"You have the coordinates, right?" Asher asked Kai as he wore his mask.

"Yes," Kai replied, seeing a special nano armor covering Asher's body.

This special nano armor was something only A Rank hunters of major guilds used. Kai took out his mask and armor, which differed from the one Asher used.

Kai and Dane were using the nano armor built for S Rank hunters, which was very expensive. Both of them could handle the mana consumption of this armor, but that was not the case with Asher.

Although he wore it, he would need to use a lot of his mana, but he was not worried about it.

They sat in the car after they wore the masks. The place they were going was not something that was accessible to a lot of people.

Although Kalvas Gala happened on different continents every time, the vaults they were going for were not in Somaria. And for reaching there, they needed to leave Somaria.

But the problem was that all the continent-wide Teleportation Gates were strictly monitored, and if they traveled through them, their records would be stored.

But there were other ways to travel between continents, although most took time.

The place they were going to was a special series of portals that the Black Market owned and used, and only those with Shadow Cards could use them. Asher also had one, which he received for making a deal with Pure Mana Crystals.

In the middle of a forest, Tom was waiting in a vast camp full of shady people.

He was also wearing a mask to hide his identity.

Interestingly, people around him wore similar masks. In fact, he hadn't seen a single person not wearing a mask to cover their identity.

"When will they arrive?" Tom muttered to himself, growing more impatient.

The atmosphere around him was far from comforting. Asher had told him to wait there, but now that he was in the middle of it, he wanted to leave already. His worry was understandable.

A place used for illegal travel between continents was not where you'd expect to find pleasant people.

Despite this, nobody seemed to bother him, and for that, he was thankful.

Although he was the only unawakened person there, unspoken rules governed the area. Most of the people there were involved with illegal organizations, and none of them wanted to cause trouble with others.

Even if the person they argued with was weak, there was no way of knowing who was behind the trade.

They knew they had to follow these rules to ensure this place ran smoothly. Tom didn't know about this because he hadn't found any information on the subject.

Suddenly, his thoughts were interrupted by a message from Kai telling him they had arrived. With a sense of relief and excitement, he quickly stood up.
