Hunter Bureau [3]

"Where are you going, Vicent Landes?"

I am not letting you off the hook that easily, young man. At the time when my voice resounded, the reporters were already eagerly taking notes for the content they are going to write.

"Still what you want, you ba- Lucas?"

"Apologize."

"What?"

"Apologize for insulting my secretary."

"Hahaha…what are you even saying?"

"Apologize, Dumbass."

"Or else I will reveal you're true colors."

At my words, Vicent Landes's face become pale, unlike Dean this boy was just a kid who is barely 21 years old.

'I can't refute the fact Dean is also 21…'

However, Vicent was a clueless fellow, even if I say something like this, how can he show hesitation mixed with a fear expression, that too before all these reporters?

'What a simple man…'

Vicent's small eyes were wide opened and his pupil reflected an unconcealed tremor. Naturally, all the reporters who were only looking at me just a moment ago were now all focused on Vicent.

Just as I intended to blackmail this boy once again, I heard a reporter with good ears saying, "Hey, I think…I just heard Lucas saying: 'revealing true colors'."

The hyena-like reporters, who were already hungry for scoops, were only looking at my lips now.

'Landes family…the sole reason why they were able to recover their house wasn't Vicent's awakening…'

[The Illegal Dungeons]

Dungeons that aren't identified are noted in the records of the government are called [Illegal Dungeons].

Although, as I said before. These types of occurrences aren't possible in countries like Ardell.

Many poor countries had long been taken control of by criminal organizations.

[Blossom Mercenary]

Their base was located in Russia, dungeons aren't guests, and they will not inform humans beforehand like, 'I am going appear here!'

Especially when it comes to forest-filled countries like Russia where many parts have not been only civilized yet.

Hunters will roam into the forest and raid the dungeons illegally and obtain money from them.

'Since modern technologies like satellites can't be used to detect them the situation only becomes more favorable for illegal hunters.'

This wasn't a rare occurrence in poorly populated countries or poor countries.

I glanced at Vicent while displaying a contempt expression before continuing, "The information isn't confirmed yet…So, we have to ask the young master of the Landes family."

The reporters hungry for information rushed over to the newbie who was standing across from me.

He glared at me as if he is going to kill me any second, I smiled at the bastard to make him lose his cool and spill some information.

'Goodbye, Mr. Super Rookie ~'

-----

In contrast to the entrance where reporters congregated, the inside of the association building was quiet.

The further we went, the quieter it became, and from some point on, not even a small chatter from the association's staff which were present before could be heard.

"Young master, what was that 'revealing of true colors' about?"

Ana inquired as we passed through the first security door.

"It's just a hunch of mine."

She gave a confused look and then a weird expression, "Simply because of your hunch, you uttered such words before all those reporters?"

"You can just think of my hunch as a [Skill], I have a task for you."

"Yes, young master?"

"Do an investigation about Vincent Landes, take it to the international level. Money doesn't matter."

'I don't want to deceive her, but how can I claim to say I got these from the novel I read?'

The characters of this world were originally fictional beings in a novel for Eric, that is previously me, despite the fact that they were now alive, breathing, speaking, and showing emotions vividly in front of my eyes.

'Would they believe me if I simply tell them the truth? How would they deal with the shock if they believed it?'

I don't even want to imagine it.

'What matters is that this world before me is real.'

I should not act as if I were trapped in a novel's fictional world, destroying myself by treating the surroundings as shambles.

This is the world I am currently living in and these people are not any random words imprinted on my mobile.

'I had changed the future...'

If the plot went according to the original novel, between Vicent and Dean a battle would have erupted.

Due to the impeccable behavior of Vicent's younger brother, Derek (I finally remember him!) displays towards Zelina, Dean would wreck all the bones on his body as result, both the brothers would fight each other to death.

The butterfly effect was a popular theory proposed by Edward N. Lorenz, to highlight the possibility that small causes may have momentous effects.

'However, I have stopped one of the main events here.'

There is even a chance of the whole plot line being messed up because of my actions, there is even a possibility of after-effects affecting Kay Siegel.

'Nevertheless, I don't care...'

If I had any consideration about this, why would I in the first place bring Clara under my wing?

'My mission is to survive...!'

And, I will see through the end of this.

As we reached 2nd security door, an association staff blocked our path, "From here onwards, only examiners are allowed..."

He exuded confidence as if there were no distinctions between Lucas Flynn and others.

I could also see his pride, which developed due to the fact he was an employee at Hunter Bureau.

'That's because the Hunter Bureau is quite powerful in this country.'

Not only in this country, but it was also true for all the countries, even countries like South Africa the hunter bureau kept things under control where they ruled.

The Hunter Bureau had several private secret organizations in addition to external organizations.

"Alright, sir."

"Good luck with your exam. You too, Clara."

Ana said as she took a step behind and waved her hand, I gave her a bright smile while Clara left her with a nod.

'This is the moment from where it all begins...'
