Chapter 308 - Missing Clue (1) (2/2)

The search started to begin. It was a massive place for three people. All three of them looked carefully without missing anything.

It took more than two hours for the three of them to scour all of the place. Unfortunately, they didn't find any single clue that could be used. The three of them met once again at the place where Auron saved Semial and Remus.

Semial and Remus shook their heads, indicating that they found nothing. Auron sighed. He also didn't find any single clue.

”What should we do now?” Semial dejectedly said.

Before Auron could answer the question, he heard a conversation going on. Immediately, Auron told Semial and Remus to hide.

Three men were conversing with each other. ”Why the boss told us to do this? Didn't we have already clean the area.” The first man asked.

The second man shrugged his shoulders and said, ”I don't know.”

”Just do what we are told to do!” The third man reprimanded the other two.

The three men arrived at the place where Auron saved Semial and Remus. The third man commanded, ”Scour the area! Don't let any information left behind.”

With that command, the three men started to scour the area and looked for anything that could become a clue. After five minutes, the three of them concluded that the area was clean. No hint that led to them could be found.

”It is clean. No track of us.” The first man said.

”Okay, let us went back and report.” The third man declared.

Meanwhile, Auron, Semial, and Remus saw the entire situation that happened in front of them. It turned out that the three men in front of them belonged to the bandit's group. Moreover, they were diligently erased all the trace that could lead to them.

Auron, Semial, and Remus had the same thought. They looked at each other and nodded. Since they could not find any clue, this was their last opportunity. They had to capture at least one of them and interrogate them.

When the three bandits were about to leave, Auron's group started to attack. A [Fire Bolt] flown to one of the bandits.

The surprise attack took the bandits off guard. Unfortunately, their reaction was quick. They took out their weapon and deflected the [Fire Bolt].

The three bandits immediately took a fighting position. ”Who are you? Don't be a sissy and came out! A sneak attack like this could not kill us!” The third bandit shouted.

There was no response to his shouts. The third bandit looked at the other two and pointed out the direction where the [Fire Bolt] came.

The three bandits moved slowly towards their destination while keeping their guards up. Unfortunately, when they arrived at their destination, they found nothing.

Another [Fire Bolt] came out from another direction. Since the three bandits had kept their guards up, they quickly blocked the [Fire Bolt].

”Come out, you chicken!!!” The third bandit shouted. The other two bandits also shouted their own mocking.
