196 Guild master and Rulf 1 (1/2)

In the Hazegroove Mercenary Squad's residence building,

”Hahaha,” A loud laugh could be heard from one of the rooms in the building.

”Almost all the things were done to complete my mission. Let's see who will stop me from tearing down the fire sword sect,” A middle-aged man with a muscular build slowly came out of the room and said with excitement on his face.

”Although the breakthrough to the Elite General Realm looked somewhat forced, It will be okay as long as I take some time to stabilize the newly gained strength,” the middle-aged man thought about his breakthrough to the Elite General Realm.

The middle-aged man was none other than Edmond Hazegroove who consumed the monster peach and broke through to the Elite General Realm.

His breakthrough didn't stop there but continued all the way to level 5 of the Elite General realm.

'But, I should find the right time to initiate the mission,' he thought in his head about initiating some mission.

”What happened Edmond? Why are you laughing out loud at this time?” As Edmond was pondering about some mission, he heard Udo Keenaxe's words which sounded a bit irritated.

For the past few days, Udo was working on some mission that Edmond assigned to him, and he completed today's scheduled work ahead of time as he wanted to rest peacefully for one night.

However, just as he was about to rest, he heard Edmond's loud laugh and came down to check on him.

”Udo, you came at the right time,” Edmond didn't mind the words of Udo and continued, ”Do you know what happened today?”

Edmond didn't say anything about the breakthrough or anything but asked Udo.

”What would have happened today? Seeing that laugh of yours I could guess that you might breakthrough a minor realm or two,” Udo replied jokingly looking at Edmond's happy face.

Udo's irritation went away when he looked the happy face on his friend, which he didn't see for a long time.

So, he jokingly answered to Edmond's question.

”Yes, I broke through a major realm,” Edmond said with a smile on his face.

”Only a single major realm...What?” Udo stopped his sentence in the middle and shouted 'What' at Edmond's face.

”Yes, I broke through to level 5 of the Elite General Realm,” Edmond shared his happiness with his childhood friend.

”Are you serious? How did you break through to the Elite General Realm so soon?” Udo asked with his jaw dropped.

”Hahaha,” Instead of replying answer to Udo's question, Edmond replied with a laugh.

It's not like he didn't want to tell Udo about Monster peach that Ajax gave him, but he felt that the suspiciousness about Ajax would increase in Udo's heart.

So he refrained from answering his questions.

Edmond knew about Udo's character. If he felt suspicious about someone, he would waste his time until the doubt in his heart goes away.

”Ok then, we will proceed to the next step in the mission,” Seeing that Edmond didn't answer him, Udo didn't ask him any questions; instead he asked about the mission.

As soon as he heard about the mission, Edmond turned serious and shook his head.

”It's still not the right time for it,” he said to Udo before returning to his room.

”Ok,” Udo replied and walked towards his room.
