Chapter 24: The sworn revenge.

After spending some time in Mark's house, we all left the house leaving Grandma Julia behind. She is asleep in the spare bedroom of Mark's house.

We were walking away, heading towards our house. The night sky was as lively as always, The night sky where stars and three moons resonated with each other.

It looked as beautiful as always.

I was carrying Annie on my back. She was asleep on my back still holding on to me tightly. She was one of those people whose muscle memory is good, such people don't let go of things even when they are asleep.

While we were walking together,

Ulrich suddenly asked "Grey, we haven't forgotten have we?".

I instantly knew what he was talking about and the answer to the question was " No, I don't think I ever will. "

Rudi's expression turned furious, as he said " Even after 100 years, I will never forget it. I will never forget what those bastards did."

"I have my score to settle with the church of Iris, so I will join you guys in destroying them from the roots." Said Rai.

I stopped in my tracks and said " We are just busy at the moment, but once we stabilize the mana core of Annie successfully. I will get those bastards who were behind the attack in the village."

I took a brief pause before speaking again " I will find those rats, even from hell. I will never forget the death of my mother."

Various unpleasant memories flooded through my brain, I never forgot about that incident. After I am done with stabilizing Annie's core, I have various people to kill.

My blood boiled thinking about the incident all over again.

I wonder what kind of expression my face has right now...

I resumed walking, before saying "I will settle my score with Santor nation and the Iris church."

"huh, what are you guys talking about?" asked Annie, who just woke up.

"Nothing special," I replied, hope she didn't notice what we were talking about. I don't want her to drag her into all this mess.

She took my word and went back to sleep.

I looked beside Aetna and she looked like she wanted to say something. I tilted my head letting her know that she can speak her mind.

"I will join you too, Grey." Said Aetna.

"Yes, we are partners anyways. Wherever I go, you have to come with me. We can't stay away from each other for a long time because of the contract between us." I replied.

I came to know about the existence of the contract between me and Aetna because of the demigod and also because of the seal marking of the Minerva.

One of the powers of the seal of Minerva is to provide me with information, and that especially applies to the power I possess.

Like for example, I have the power to increase my physical strength and speed through venomous aura in my body. So the seal of Minerva provides me with information about my venomous aura, detailed information that I don't know about.

Through the seal of Minerva, I found out that my venomous aura has more powers, one of them is that the opponent in my field of vision will suffer a paralytic effect. This power basically puts them in a state of paralysis, where it causes instability in their physical strength and also their mana.

For the seal of Minerva, the contract is sort of power too. So I have all the information about the contract I have with Aetna. The contract was made as a means for Aetna to survive and this contract benefits both of us.

I lost my eye, so through this contract, I was able to get my eye back. But if I lose my eye one more time, I won't get my eye back.

As the contract was made all the energy that existed in the surrounding gathered on to us, because of that I was exposed to the heavy amount of dark aura and also Demoness Ami's energy.

About how do I know her name? Because it seems her will has seeped into me. But I am shutting her off as of now, I never made direct contact with her will that exists in me.

But because of the seal of Minerva, I know that her will exists inside me.

24-2

It was the next day and I had to go to escort my commission.

I was informed to gather at the Adventure guild and meet up with the other five hunters who were assigned this commission as well.

It sucks...

I hate joint commissions. It's not as fun as people think it to be, I always have to deal with teammates who are hard to handle.

Of all the joint Commission I did,

There Is always one guy who tries to assert domination about how good he is and for some reason he always tries to prove that he alpha among the group.

We are not in the jungle, so It's not necessary to go out of your way to prove that you are an alpha among the group.

Then there is always a girl, who is the girlfriend of the alpha….

Let me tell you that this girl is the most annoying, I can handle the alpha guy once but this girlfriend of the alpha is the one that gets on my nerves.

This girl always thinks that she is the most beautiful girl in the city and if her ego is big enough she might also think that she is the most beautiful girl in the nation.

And there is always this two Mother f***ers who discuss in the background that how beautiful the girl is, the dialogue between them that always goes like,

"Oh, this is miss. Xyz and his boyfriend alpha."

And the next guy will always say

"Yes, it's miss. Xyz, the cities number one beauty."

And then they will go on to treat her like that she is the queen of everything and they must worship her.

And let's not talk about that one loser guy who tries to be the right hand of the Alpha.

I hope this time I get a team with members that are not cliché characters.

I don't want the Alpha ...… And I don't want Alpha's girlfriend ..... and I don't want to see that two mother fu**** that talk about how beautiful Alpha's girlfriend is.

I am not paid enough to deal with those people.
