Chapter 759: The Professor (1/2)

While Sam is wondering how he can get his hands on these trees to make the scrolls, someone who sent the scroll back to Sam is also wondering about Sam.

In the College of Bureaucracy. Inside an office of the main building, someone is sitting on his chair and looked out of the window as he thought deeply.

He is none other than the professor. He is a tall Elf with extremely lean but fit stature. Even among a bunch of elves, it would be hard to not notice his presence.

There are a bunch of scrolls in front of him and one of them is open. There are details of Raunak written in it, if Raunak himself saw this, he would be stunned because there is everything about his life in them. Something which he knew and something which doesn't even know, like the identity of the parents.

But the scroll was currently crossed out with red ink.

*knock* *knock*

While he is thinking, someone knocked on the door which brought him back to his senses.

Another Elf came in, but this time it is a woman.

”Ratna why are you here? I said I want some alone time.”

”I don't have a choice professor, you have been delaying your administrative duties in the past week and the Dean is currently grilling me. I don't want to be around that pervert anymore. The Old Bastard gives me creeps.”

”I am sorry. I was just too busy with 'those' affairs.”

She took a seat opposite to him and saw the scroll that was open on the table.

”You really gave up Raunak? I think he is a great addition to your team. He can make connections, he thinks out of the box and he is modest enough to recognize his faults and grow. Why would you leave such a candidate?”

”I already gave him up.”

”Why?”

”To make a deal with that new resource of ours. He just has too many tricks up his sleeve. Because of him the faction 2 indirectly lost power in the Planet 2. And they didn't do anything to him because of the Planet 1 faction.

And the faction 1 that is trying to get him back for that, lost two Transcendent stage cultivators, severely injured one transcendent stage cultivator, an extra officer, killed two teams of the cloaked forces and one of them is black and the other is blood red.

Apart from that, some mercenaries who got greedy about his massive wealth tried their luck, but they are also dead.

He killed so many people and there is no evidence to directly convict him. They didn't want to make a move because of the election drama.

He is the right person in the right place, but his presence is going to mess with the elections a lot. With his new ventures one after another the two factions had to spend a lot of money to acquire them and this will impact their participation in the elections.

So, they are now in a tacit understanding to not buy anything from him for now and get them by force after the elections are over.

This is the only time we will get a chance to buy something and pull him to our direction, otherwise he might either disappear or he would be in the middle of a giant storm that we cannot meddle.

This is the only time where we can take advantage of him as much as we can.”

”Then why don't you use force to get the required information out of him.”

”We can't. Because I am not clear of his origins. He mysteriously appeared in Cane's town and started making these waves, it is as if he came out of nowhere.

Even though I said that he killed them all, it is not sure whether he did so himself or if he made some other people kill them. We don't even know if he is the one really incharge of all this or if he is just a puppet.

Raunak's only special quality for us is his relationship with Rajan. We can use him as our double agent if he is inside the faction 1's core member's circle, but that is still not sure. From what I know, Rajan is breaking the agreement.

He is in constant contact with the elders and doing something, if I am not wrong, he might have already planned to send her daughter to that place. The only way to stop that is for Raunak to finish his target as soon as possible and even with that it would be hard for him to get past Rajan's influence and make him follow the agreement.

There are just too many variables.
