Chapter 365 - Please! (1/2)

Dominique entered the luxurious, upscale building without any problems.

In fact, along this main street, the buildings here were all upscale. The street they were located on obviously belonged to the wealthy elites, who were either powerful or wealthy.

This was a residential area, and not an area where one could deal with goods. However, one street down, there were many people who set up shop there.

Being near the housing of the rich and powerful made for good money.

Now, just why was a Neil being captured and brought here? For what reason? Were they not afraid of offending the Neil Clan?

Or was it that they had no idea he was Neil? It was doubtful. The Neil Clan's eyes were special, and they were easily recognized.

Dominique felt unbearably curious now. The faint stirrings of interest slowly grew and crescendoed, reaching new heights. It spurred him on further.

He slipped into the place, easily dodging the guards that were around. They were alert, but Dominique was much more experienced than them in this aspect.

If he wanted to, only someone of the same rank or someone stronger than him could discover him.

But he had already scanned the place before entering, and he knew that they weren't able to stop him.

While the place was heavily guarded, and there were various magical objects in the building, that didn't mean that it had been guarded by any arrays.

It was hard to invite an Array Master to work for you, and even if you wanted to find anyone who was of less expertise to do it, it couldn't be confirmed that they would carry it out.

This mainly stemmed from the lack of Array Masters in the continent, as well as the increasingly high price rates. Most Array Masters already had a faction they belonged to, making it even harder to meet one.

Which was perhaps lucky for the owner. Dominique's 'expertise' in runes could only be referred to as demolition.

Most of the time when Dominique picked up the techniques from his Boss, all he saw was the way he 'broke' the arrays or seals down to study it.

However, that route would usually lead to the entire array shattering like a mirror being shattered into pieces. It would usually be loud and messy, which was not something that he wanted.

Dominique leisurely strolled into the place, walking by right in front of the guards. Just a little bit of the stealth skills and he could successfully fool them.

In fact, he could even break out into a dance in front of them and they wouldn't be any the wiser.

This was the stark difference between a Meister and anyone below them.

It was a qualitative change that created a gap so wide that the gulf could not be filled with mere expertise alone.

The power levels were too different in this regard.

It was to the point that anyone below the ranks of Meister who successfully lived to tell the tale when they were involved in a fight with a Meister would become famous shortly after, regardless of if the Meister had been holding back or not.

However, because most of the fights were shielded by the Meisters, this hardly ever happened.

The place inside really exuded luxurious decorations inside in every place. It was ostentatious, but somehow, one didn't feel discomfort looking at it. It was high key luxury that didn't lose out to the royal palace.

It made Dominique raise his brows. Why was a Neil captured and brought here?

For some reason, Rosabel's various racy novels flashed through his mind, involving a domineering rich tycoon kidnapping a helpless young woman or man, having a whirlwind romance that eventually led to the kidnapping victim falling in love with the kidnapper.

With a blank look on his face, Dominque waved the thoughts away. How absurd.

It was more likely that the Neil Clan member had something that the owner wanted.

Dominique's eyes flashed. Just what was it that he wanted?

He wandered around the place, and he even found the office of the bigshot. From what he heard; the bigshot was inside playing around.

Dominique frowned in disgust.
