80 Orders

"You two can live this house in the future." Ban smirked at the sisters.

"Really? I will get addicted with so many entertainment rooms in this house. I might neglect my training." Eliza hesitated.

Elena rolled her eyes at Eliza. She said "Since when did you became serious about training?" She turned to Ban and said "We'll think about it in the future. This is indeed a good house to live. However, just like my sister mentioned, we might neglect our training from the temptation of the entertainments of the house."

Ban chuckled and said "Don't worry, that is why I mentioned a surprise earlier when I bought the stones. I bet you won't leave this house even if I told you to."

"Hehehe. Don't tell me you want to build a replica on yourself using those stones for us to ogle at?" Eliza giggled as she teased.

Ban have black lines in his forehead. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Eliza have so many imaginations running on her head.

"Heh. I think so too." Elena chimed in.

Ban turned speechless at the sisters.

"Okay. Okay.. You can imagine all you want. For now, let's have some dinner first. I bet you guys are hungry after being blessed." Ban proceeded to the kitchen, but he paused when he didn't sense any ingredients for a meal.

"Mm. I indeed felt hungry all of a sudden, like I didn't ate for days." Eliza followed Ban to the kitchen.

"Guess we need to order online for a food. There's nothing to cook in the kitchen." Ban scratched his head. He continued "You girls chill out first, I'll make a call."

"Sure." The Eliza immediately dragged her sister to look for some entertainment in the house.

Ban ordered a food online. After that, he call the jewelry store owner.

"Hello?"

"Hi, Ms. Tina. This is Ban. I am the one who purchased opal stones earlier."

"Oh. Good evening, Sir. Thank you for catching those robbers earlier."

"It's nothing much."

"Anyway, How may I help you?"

"Mm. I'm planning to buy another batches of opal stones in your store. Can you reserve a batch for me?"

"Sure. How much do you need? I will arrange it immediately."

"1 thousand kilos of raw opal stones. Even opal crystals are fine, but I need most of the stones have colors in it. How is it?" Ban requested.

"..."

"Hello? You still there?" Ban asked again when Tina became silent.

"Ahem!* Y-Yes. I am just a bit... speechless. I mean.. Why do you need so much stones? Ahem!* Sorry. That.. I can arrange your order within a week, but you need to give me a portion of money as a deposit for that to happen." Tina replied with a stuttering sound. Never did she imagined that Ban needed so much stones in a short period of time. She thought Ban only needed 50kg of stones at most. Even billionaires today don't buy that much of resources in one purchase.

"Okay. I will give you the deposit on wednesday. I'll give you a call then."

"Sure, no problem. Is there anything else, Sir?"

"Actually I do need 10kg of raw diamonds, 100kg of diamond crystals, 1000kg of Grade A jade, 100kg of amethyst crystal, 100kg of-"

"W-Wait! H-Hold on a second!" Tina felt like she was going to have a heart attack from the request of Ban. This is a multi-billion deal. She thought Ban was going to build a jewelry store.

"A-Are you serious right now? I-I mean, the opal stones alone is a huge sum of money."

"Yes. Well, my second order can be arrange on a later date. I'm just giving you a heads up about it. Anyways, you can proceed about the opal stones. I need them as soon as possible." Ban chuckled. Even if he was in Tina's situation, he would also feel shocked.

After a few confirmations and giving lists of orders, Ban ended the call.

'I hope my ratio on bet for tomorrow will be the same as before or else.. I might find another way to gain money.'

Ban shook his head before examining the house again. He needed to do a little rennovation and add some rooms for personal use. The fitness room is not enough for him with his current power. He needed a room- no, a hall that can withstand atleast a nuclear attack with no disturbance in the surroundings if he practice inside it.

After the dinner and tour in the house, Ban escorted the sisters to their home with hugs and kisses. Even Elena was not an exception which witnessed by Eliza who's giggling at the view.

...

Ban arrived at his house through a cab...

Sally was not around since she began to attend her work after few days of absent.

Penelope also woke up with no complications in her condition. Of course, there are changes in her body noticed by others especially Drago who began to lust for her body even more. He needed to show a gentlemanly side and show his concern for her like a boyfriend do to his woman. Penelope on the other side, woke up with confused look on her face. She was dazing about something from time to time. Mayor Connor decided to let her stay for a few more days to recuperate, but Penelope rejected as she wants to go home.

...

Ban decided to meditate while waiting for Sally and the Little Girl. He was observing his body in detail. His power became three times than before. His Detection is now at 20 kilometers wide. Almost reaching the Fern City where the Arena located.

After the detailed examination, Ban wanted to try and create new skills of his own. Also, he wanted to combine his Camouflage on his Phantom Steps especially when fighting. Attacking on a permanent invisible with the help of Elemental Manipulation Canon that no aura leaked mode is quite terrifying for the enemies. He will be a perfect assassin for this.

Ban also wanted to observe why his lovers never got pregnant when they do the 'battle' thing. He wanted to use his Heaven Seeking Detection skill to it's maximum potential when the said 'battle' happens in the future.

...

Tom and his team arrived at Angeles City...

The group headed to the hotel where Samantha and her group stayed.

"C-Comander Tom!" Samantha's group was shocked when the saw the 8 footer giant man who's arms covered by pacific tribe tattoo and a bald head that was leading the group of elites behind him.

Even Frank with a buff body felt like a little brother when in comes to Tom.

"Mm." Tom waved his hand. He entered the room with the other elites and said in a deep voice "Report."

"Y-Yes." Said Samantha who was usually calm but couldn't help but became timid by the presence of Tom. She immediately reported the events that happened including Anthony's case.

"We didn't find any other clue regarding Jason's whereabout, but there was a blood sample where he last sighted that was almost washed out on the ground due to the rain. This is our only clue for the time being."

"What about the soldier who Anthony had encountered when he was here?" Tom asked with a calm demeanor.

"W-We didn't focus on Anthony's case since Jason's last possible location is nearby, s-so we decided to start on the latter's case first. However, we also have a contact with the General that stationed in this City, we can summon him if you want." Samantha explained carefully.

Tom frowned and put a pondering expression.

"..."

The room turned silent.

"We will interrogate that soldier tomorrow." Tom turned to the elites and commanded "Survey every nook and cranny of this City, even it's boundary. Interrogate those Divergents out there. If they resist, you are required to take immediate action. Understood?"

The elites nodded simultaneously.

Tom waved his hand and the elites immediately went out of the room and began to scattered all over the City.

Tom then turned to the four and said "I will handle everthing here. Your initial mission about the Divergent incident the other day will become my mission. However before that, do you know about this soldier that Anthony met?"

Samantha was startled and shook her head "We didn't... know. We are anxious on finding our team leader's whereabout at that time, so..."

"S-Sir." Frank raised a hand.

Tom gave a nod to Frank.

"There is a peculiar soldier that we met earlier. I think he is the one you are looking for."

Samantha and others made a confused look at Frank.

"Oh? Why do you say that?"

"He- I think he has the same vibe as you, Sir." Frank said carefully.

"Oh? Interesting. What vibe are you talking about?"

Frank sweated somehow and replied "I don't mean to offend you Sir, but his vibe is kind of ....dangerous."

"Frank! What are you talking about? He is nowhere near to our commander." Travis chided at Frank with a frown.

"I never lie about my guts. I can tell if someone is dangerous or not." Frank made a reason to his group.

"You mean.. That soldier who visited us earlier? Impossible. He has no aura around him." Samantha also sided with Travis.

Tom waved his hand and asked Frank "You say he's a dangerous man. Tell me about it. He might be the one we are looking for."

Frank nodded and explained his short encounter with Ban.

Samantha asked with knitted brows "Are you sure he said that to you? We never heard him mentioned that words, right?" She turned to her other team who nodded in confirmation.

"I'm sure of it. That is why I said he is quite a peculiar one." Frank replied with a serious face.

Tom frowned and he silently pondered about it. He turned to Samantha and said "I was planning to meet this guy for tomorrow, but the situation is quite unusual. We need to meet him as soon as possible. Contact their general, we are going to their camp now."

"Y-Yes!"
