Chapter 372: The guild is shook up (1/2)

( land of illusions )

Rudra tried to focus on the golden light , however all he could see at the moment was a mass of golden light , nothing more .... Hence he decided to activate the eyes of truth!

The moment he activated the eyes of truth , there were small texts appearing on the golden light. It was like he could focus into the mass of golden light and see the hidden patterns within it.

It was not like the text was golden , it was like , between that blinding light , there was a small area of unshining texts .

However Rudra could not read it. He could not make out if what he was seeing was an A or a K , as the stone was vibrating fast , it was impossible to see it clearly.

Within minutes Rudra started to have a headache trying to focus on such a text. He would have quit , if a system notification did not change his perception.

System notification : Your mind and body are being tempered , the quality of your mana circuit is improoving.

Rudra did not understand what this meant , however he was sure it was something good. Now that the greed set in , Rudra suddenly felt the pain to be much more bearable. As he refocussed on trying to decipher the text.

Unaware of what was transpiring in the real world , Rudra was currently enjoying his improvement session within the lake. If he had known what was going on in the real world , he would have logged out immediately , and not even cared if this opportunity to improove was wasted , as the real world was currently a mess.

( Real world , the upside medical facility )

Bo was currently admitted inside the hospital , as the Assassin was under police custody. Being restrained and prepped for information extraction.

Bo's short spur of fighting the assassin and trying to prevent him from dying , had cost a lot of blood loss for the man. His life was hanging by a delicate thread currently as his pulse was at a threatening low.

Noone had been informed of the incidence as of yet , as everyone was awaiting Ethan Grey's orders. However Ethan Grey was inside a very important auction currently and could not be disturbed.

Hence upon Bo's last request, before he lost consciousness , Jhonny English was informed about the incident.

Currently he was sitting in the waiting area of the hospital , as dark thoughts clouded his mind.

Jhonny was not always this happy go lucky person. In the mercenary academy he was the number one genius to have ever stepped a foot inside the academy.

Just like Bo. He was sharp and someone who did things by the book , however that made him always live on the edge. He was never at peace and his mind kept recalling his missions.

He abandoned that style of life when he took to the mountains alongside Yume and the monks. Finding peace in letting god decide the path of life.

Yet , meeting Bo , he saw a spitting image of himself in his twenties , and for the first time in a decade had the feeling of actually taking a mission seriously , to try and teach the youngster.

He wanted to call it a day after he passed the torch to Bo , putting aside his days as an assassin. Yet now Bo was inside the emergency room , battling for his life and the sharpness of Jhonny English 's gaze was slowly returning to his eyes.

He was pissed off , he was angry , and he wanted revenge. At that moment Jhonny swore , that whoever was behind this incident , he would make them pay.
