Ivor was nervous because this task seemed to have a lot of pressure on him from the higher-ups. They were watching this case carefully.

The first call he had received was odd, and the second one was even stranger. Truth be told, he was already walking on a tightrope.

Since they had been doing this recruitment, Ivor had been strict in his assessment, only letting a few people pass. He had been asked to be more lenient, but he had just lost it when he saw the no-names in front of him, disrespecting the nof the Lethal Bite Clan.

Currently, Ivor was outside, weapon strapped to his side. Next to him was Bargo, who was standing in a relaxed manner, always smiling as the sun hit his face.

Then there were three new clan member guards in front of him. Two females and a single male wearing the Lethal Bite Clan uniform.

These were those that had been selected as part of the guards the other day. Eventually, out from the barracks, those whom he had been waiting for had walked out.

Two of the wanderers today that had passed the assessment walked towards the center, after that, there was the one known as man.

His long hair was tied up, and with a change of clothes, he looked relatively nice, but his sunken face from malnutrition was still visible.

Right behind him was none other than Anna. The clothes she was wearing now were more revealing compared to the heavy garments she had on before.

However, there wasn't the sglow that Raze had seen initially when first meeting her. Apparently, this was only active when she was using her powers, so she could cover herself up and look like just any other person from Pagna relatively easily if she wanted.

The last person to exit out of the room was Raze, and there was quite a big noticeable change when he had cout.

"Oh!" Ivor placed his hand under his chin and was analyzing the persons in front of him up and down. "I have to say, you cleaned up quite well.

"No longer do you have that strange ridiculous outfit on you, and your hair, it suits you more."

Raze didn't say anything as he went to line up with the others, but the Wanderers who had seen him couldn't stop staring.

Now Raze was wearing the Pagna uniform instead of his protective Blazer; he still had his regular sword by his side, but the biggest change was Raze's hair color.

It wasn't a particularly hard spell to make small changes. Creating a circle and stepping into it and activating it with magic.

It had changed his hair color now to black. However, it wasn't a strong spell either. Meaning if Raze himself used a mass amount of magic around him, or was hit with a large spell, it would reveal his hair color anyway.

He would then need to cast the spell over and over to change it back to black. A magic spell that had next to no use for combat. Simply changing his hair color wouldn't make it so no one knew what his face looked like either.

However, in this situation, where the nthe White Dragon had spread, he thought it was best to change it for now.

"Alright everyone, we are a team of ten, and we have been tasked with an important mission!" Ivor explained. "Apparently, a guest of sorts has been kidnapped, and they have located them at the Stone estate."

"I know you have just recently joined, and this type of task might not be something you are used to, which is why I will be joining you on this task."

"I will be observing as well," Bargo added.

A quick glance was given by Ivor for Bargo interrupting him. It was a pain to have someone from another clan so close in this situation.

Raze, standing, was a little annoyed; after joining up, he thought maybe they would be heading to the main base of the clan. There he could find out sinformation about these deaths, but nothing had occurred.

"What is Himmy doing?" Raze asked.

"Don't worry, he has a clear head on him that focuses on the goal; he is a stubborn person." Anna answered. "Let's just continue on as we are at the moment.

"If we make sbig achievements, then maybe we can make it to the top," Anna replied.

Although Raze did want to get this whole thing over and done with, he was worried that those at the top might potentially know him.

Himmy and Charlotte had quickly made it back to the Stone estate. They were waiting at another abandoned building that was stationed opposite the manor.

From the look of things, the building used to be a type of drinking establishment. Pulling up a couple of chairs, Himmy sat down and stared out of the broken window.

"Did you sense that they were still inside the building?" Himmy asked.ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ NovelEnglish.net

"I could still sense a trail of magic that is lingering from the building," Charlotte answered.

Reaching into his coat pocket, Himmy had pulled out the Alter device; he had pressed the button one more time, but only Charlotte's had activated, and it didn't seem like it was connecting with anything else.

"Let's turn these off for now. We don't know how much information these kidnappers know; it would be best we don't out ourselves as those from Alter," Himmy suggested.

Charlotte did as she was asked, turning her device off, and now it was a waiting game. How the Lethal Bite Clan would react to all of this was.

It was going to tell a lot to Himmy.

"You're trying harder than before on this case," Charlotte commented.

"Of course I am," Himmy replied. "Alter took us off this case thinking we were doing an incompetent job. They then send in another Alter team, and look what happens to them."

"After that, they casking us to reopen and investigate the case again. I'm going to complete this task and show them what's what!"

Himmy got up from his seat, as he took a look out the window; he could see a group of those in Pagna uniform, not just any uniform but the Lethal Bite Clan approaching the gate, ten of them in total.

"Hey, isn't that… Anna and... I think that's Raze, he changed his hair color!" Charlotte gasped. Quickly, she was trying to wonder which hair color she preferred on him, white or black.

"Well, now we know, it's quite clear that the Lethal Bite Clan is trying to hide something," Himmy stated. "Anna and Raze should have just joined the clan.

"If that is the case, then why would they send them on a mission straight away? It's clear that they don't care about the ones that have been sent."

"And if anything, they would more likely want to use people that they don't mind disappearing."

That wasn't the only thing that was worrying Himmy; he was surprised to see the clan just walk up to the front gate. Were they trying to announce to everyone that they were there?

Shortly after that, they had already jumped over the gate and were going inside the building.

"Con, let's follow them, and find out just what's in store inside."
