"Is this the place?" Compass Carburettor asked, pointing at a house far away.
"Yes…I think so." Gehera nodded, "That's what I found out before. But, I'm not sure if the one I'm searching for is even there."
"It can't be helped then. Let's take a closer look under the cover of the night." Compass Carburettor replied. Currently, they were on the terrace of a house, using the heigh to scout through the area.
They didn't enter the alleyways, instead booking a lodge nearby with access to the terrace.
The one they were looking for was a middle-aged man nad Luthak, a Master Warrior wielding the Water Elent. He was a drug dealer and also traded organs, typically of the human race, selling them to the Giants, Birdn, and Lizardn races.
After all, such races loved to dine on human organs. But most of all, so of their experints also required the sa as raw material, especially the organs of Masters; they were sold for a premium.
Such organs were infused with a dense stream of mana, making them valuable products. Luthak was a prolific dealer, a na known among various Kingdoms, and a rchant placed on the Xetuka Kingdom's kill list.
Gehera had been tailing for information regarding him for the past two years, barely managing to find traces in Tentuna City. As Luthak hardly stayed in a place for more than a couple of months, it was hard to track him.
But as a Novice Cartographer, she sohow managed to accomplish it. But, she hit her limit soon after. A Cartographer was incapable of fighting, so even if she found his location, she wasn't able to do anything.
Just the previous ti, when she planned to approach his hiding spot, a random thug of Luthak's gang chanced upon her, and almost managed to kill her.
So, she couldn't do anything to him.
But now that she had t Compass Carburettor, things were different. With his help, she could eventually find information regarding her mother.
"But first," Compass Carburettor motioned for her to return to the room they had booked, stating as he stared at her, "There's a secret in you. Only by accessing it first will you have the strength to deal with this issue on your own."
"I have a hidden strength in ?" Gehera asked in surprise.
"Yes," Compass Carburettor nodded, "Or precisely, your Titan bloodline is the key to activating it. I can sense a mysterious item in you that's bonded to you. Once you manage to activate it, you'll be able to find more clues regarding everything."
"But, even if I have such a power dormant in , how will I activate it?" Gehera asked, clenching her hand into a fist, "I can't feel anything different in myself."
"We can try a couple of thods." He said, motioning for her to remain seated, "Try ditating. That's the simplest thod."
Gehera did as told, trying her best to concentrate, but after so ti, she just fell…asleep. Compass Carburettor frowned, noticing that the Personal Fragnt in her body didn't even budge or pulse.
'What will happen if I trigger her body's danger sense?' He thought, glaring at her sleeping face with the intent to kill, targeting the killing intent into her Personal Fragnt itself.
Of course, nothing changed. If it was possible, she would have used it when her life was threatened by the thug before.
'So, that too is a no-go.' He thought, observing that Gehera wasn't even aware of what was happening, asleep.
'Can I influence it with my Personal Fragnt?' He thought, probing through the ntal Energy he had collected from Gehera until now. All her thoughts about him were laid bare as he went through the mories there, extracting so relevant ones as he then looked at her, thinking about her, unleashing a ntal Energy stream into her.
He then opened his mouth, unleashing a Dragon Bullet that was condensed from Gehera's thoughts, causing it to swim through the ntal Energy stream and enter her body, swimming through her in an effort to find traces of her Titan Bloodline.
But, it was as if she was a re human.
The Dragon Bullet turned into a serpent that gradually approached the Personal Fragnt, spinning around it while probing it using ntal Energy pulses.
The Personal Fragnt was strange, as if it was unanimated, not responding to any provocation.
After so ti had passed, the serpent even slapped it using its tail, still failing to elicit any response.
Just as he planned to experint further, the serpent-like dragon he had left behind in Stencil as a form of protection sensed Slayer's stream.
Once he understood the gist of the content, he sent a ssage to Slayer using a ntal Energy stream.
But, just to be careful, he exited the room and approached the staff in the reception, "Do you have so warm water?"
"Yes," The staff nodded.
"Can you bring it to my room?" He asked the man.
"Sure." The staff nodded as he looked at Compass Carburettor. And the sa words were also relayed through his thought, as he was uttering the sa word that resounded in his mind.
Compass Carburettor captured this thought and relayed this to Slayer. This way, even through the ntal Energy, nothing about him would be found out.
After all, it was best to exercise caution, especially against such an entity that he wasn't comfortable with eting.
That was what his senses were telling him, his senses as the Main Character, causing him to be worried as Stencil was there, in the domain controlled by Slayer.
But, this would also serve as a valuable experience for her. After all, he couldn't always keep her safe. That would be like caging her.
Anyways, the dragon-like serpent in her would defend her from all harm. Anything beyond that, he could arrive at her rescue imdiately.
For, his Dragon Bullets could travel through ntal Energy streams and arrive anywhere in the world in an instant.
Thinking as such, he contacted her.
[Brat, be a bit guarded against Slayer. I'm getting a strange feeling from him.]
[How did you know about him, dad?]
[He contacted just now. He has already seen through your identity.]
