Chapter 148: Better together

Gary was hesitating on whether he should accept Blake’s offer Billy was his responsibility, and he hated the thought that his friends a wolf had attacked theer, especially since it had boiled down to duht

However, Blake was different from the rest In the first place, he was an Altered Hunter, belonging to a group of people who risked their lives to kill Altered on the daily Even if he were to refuse, chances were that Blake and his father would be looking out for Billy anyway

‘But is working with an Altered Hunter really the best thing? I can trust Blake, can’t I?’ Gary wondered ‘He did let h I was too injured and too weak to resist He could have easily killed uess he could always tell his father about me if he wanted to…’’

That hen a certain idea popped in his head Instead of worrying about things he couldn’t control, why not er would get a warning if his trust turned out to have been ht, the two of us stand a ether However, I have one condition I want you to promise me that you won’t try to kill me” Gary requested as he held out his hand for a handshake

Strangely, Blake was now the one who hesitated and thought things through However, in the end, he shook the other teenager’s hand

“Seems fair… I promise I won’t try to kill you” Blake answered, yet reht not make an attempt on his life, he couldn’t promise that others wouldn’t

[A spoken deal has been made, would you like to Mark “Blake Hunt”?]

[Yes]

[5/5 Marks have been assigned]

[Please reach a higher level to increase the nuet more Marks’

Gary was pleased to find out that inforh schooler had kept one Mark free, just in case he needed to make a bond with anyone else he cared about Of course, it could have also been used to initiate a Forced Bond with anyone he ht have needed to track down in the future

Fortunately, he had already created a Bond Mark with those close to him, and this promise with Blake also had another nice benefit With the additional 10 Exp he would gain, it would only require Gary to finish one of his Daily Quests tomorrow to reach Level 9

‘Maybe then I will finally gain that Iron Body skill I sahile ago It n that early, but possibly Level 10 will do the trick It see as the System called it a Main Quest’

“However, do youfor Billy tos sorted out today” As a wolf, that extra stat point he would get to a vital role

“Not at all” Blake shook his head “It’s going to take s I require anyway Just to let you know, but we probably only get one shot at this Honestly, I don’t like doing this stuff behind my Dad’s back If it doesn’t work out, or it turns out to be too dangerous, we should leave it

“Worst case, I can just pretend to have found hi you With all the leads, he will probably be able to take care of it”
