Chapter 34: Experiment

Tier 6... Allen broke through to tier 6, but he ignored it. His attention to the skills he obtained from the demonic energy orb.

Corrupting mind, Command, Consume... Why do they sound op?

Sighing off, Allen shook his head. He couldn't use them normally, it would be dangerous if people found him using demonic skills.

But his curiosity about the skill didn't go off, he really wanted to test his skill. But it had to be put off for now.

Allen walked deeper inside the alley. It wasn't that he wanted to go inside, it was just that he was lost. Yes, as embarrassing as it sounds, it is his first time in this alley. He came to the city before, but it was the first time he entered the alley and on top of that, alone.

He naturally couldn't find the exit. The alley looked like a maze, every turn he found new paths. There were also no people there. At least if it was night, a horde of people mostly gangster would be found.

"Boss, this way."

Suddenly, a sound entered Allen's ear. He looked at the source of the sound and found five people wearing red mage robes. The robe was completely different than Allen's which was provided by the academy.

From the looks of the robe, Allen could deduce they came from another mage academy. And the party must be rich. He could feel a special magic array imprinted inside the robe of the boy who waked in middle surrounded by three other people.

Allen wanted to ask them for direction but from the looks of their face and grim atmosphere he didn't. He used 'small teleport' and teleported a little further away from them.

He hid behind the wall and examined their activity like an investigator.

The atmosphere of the group was heavy, no one talked let alone even open their mouth. The guy walking in front had a troubled smile on his face. Cold sweat dripped from his head, and he forced a smile while holding his shaking hands.

As they walked ahead, Allen slowly and quietly followed them. From the corner of the wall, he looked at the group.

They reached the deepest part of the alley. Two muscular men carrying a greatsword on their back, and a guy wearing a dazzling tunic stood with a smile on his face. He had a golden box glowing with yellowish color on his hand.

The moment he saw the group of five men walking there, his smile grew wider. Clearing his throat, he walked toward them.

"Welcome, Mr. Huan. You are as handsome as the rumor says."

"Please don't flatter me, Mr. Chen. I am here for business. So, please don't waste my time. I am in a hurry."

"Ok. Please look at the content, and tell me if this will satisfy you or not..."

Mr. Chen handed the box to Mr. Huan. Mr. Huan didn't wait for a second to open the box. As he opened, an alluring smell wafted through the air.

Allen's nose pricked as it smelled the scent. Allen felt demonic energy from the pill, but it was purer than the energy inside his body. Also, it contained a huge amount of evil aura, that covered the goldish pill.

Ordinary people or even mages may not see that aura, but Allen, a fellow demonic energy user could sense that.

He wanted to snatch that pill but didn't.

Two swordsmen of Mr. Chen were Tier 5, the three people of Mr. Huan were Tier 4 mages and Mr. Huan himself was a tier 5 mage.

The guide or the person leading them there who didn't speak and only stood in the corner was the only normal person.

Mr. Chen was a tier 3 fighter. His hand had a special type of gloves covering it.

Allen couldn't help but sigh. He would just follow those people to exit. Suddenly, Mr. Huan opened his mouth.

"Hey, you prick! Won't you come out now?!"

His voice was directed at Allen which stunned him. Allen was sure that he hid his mana and aura. But still. he was found out.

Allen waited for some minute thinking that words weren't for him. But a sudden fireball came flying at him.

Allen was caught off guard, so he got hit by the fire.

Fortunately, the ball wasn't that big, so it didn't cause much damage. But it burnt his face.

"Arrg! Damn! Its hurt!!"

Allen complained and gritted his teeth. He immediately used serious heal. The pain disappeared and his burnt skin recovered. There was no scar. Allen breathe a sigh of relief.

"You fucking turds! You nearly destroyed my handsome face! What if my face was destroyed? I won't get to pick girls, you know." He scolded the group and cursed them with words.

The group of people dumbfoudnly stare at him.
