Chapter 216: The War that Decides the Fate of 'The Bridge' Part 19
Jadiel's action has attracted a lot of people's attention, but no one bothered the forr since it wasn't related to them.
Moreover, it seems like it wasn't only Jadiel who is eating to his heart's content.
After surveying briefly, Kayn notices other people doing the sa. All of them have one thing in common though — they are all of the Guardian class.
And strangely enough, there seems to be an unspoken competition between them on who will stop eating the last.
"Is Jude supposed to be Jadiel's waiter?" Kayn turns to look at Jericho.
"They need one, otherwise they'll have to waste ti going back and forth between the food counter and their table," Jericho understood that the situation right now is ridiculous. "It was Jadiel who started it, trust . Soone ca to us and provoked him,"
"Do you happen to know who they are?"
"I noticed that they are part of the Thieves Guild Alliance, so probably one of Jadiel's enemies in the alliance," Jericho could only think of that possibility.
"I call sobody else to assist Jadiel," Kayn quickly called out for Randy.
"What's up?" Randy hurriedly asked.
"Can you replace Jude for the mont?"
"Is it really necessary?" Randy doesn't feel like it.
"Apparently, yes, for Jadiel," Jericho could only awkwardly look at Randy.
"I…" Randy really wanted to reject the request, but he doesn't have anything better to do at the mont nor is he feeling confident in what Kayn intended to do next. "I guess I can,"
"I'll give you sothing in return," Jericho promised.
"Alright!" Randy felt motivated as he approaches Jude to inform him that Kayn needed him.
Hearing this, Jude didn't waste any ti and went to Kayn.
"Are we going to start looking?" Jude expressed his excitent.
"It's the perfect ti to do it," Kayn nodded.
What they intend to do next is to look for the location of the key.
And as of this mont, the real important people for the ball still haven't arrived yet, which is the perfect ti to look for it as there's barely any guard around the building.
Once those people co, this building would be full on lockdown from everybody else, including those people that are invited to the ball. Hence, making it difficult to move around.
"Who's coming with you?" Jericho expresses his intention to join.
"You'll have to unfortunately stay here since Wesley would obviously look for you," Kayn rejected.
"Can I not?"
"Depending on the circumstances, you might be able to sneak from the party. Just find us once you have the chance," Kayn motioned his hand to Gilbert and Charles. "Rember, your task is to distract Wesley and the other important people. It is also a very important job to do,"
Jericho nodded. "I'll et up with you guys once I am done on my end,"
With that being said, Kayn, Gilbert, Jude, and Charles left the room where the ball was being held and went in the direction of the bathroom.
The instant they got to the bathroom, they imdiately jumped up into the air duct to leave the place.
They got out from the back of the building where there was a duct that was being used for throwing trash away.
Everyone didn't mind it as they got out of the trash bin.
"Are you certain that it is not in this building?" Kayn turns to Jude.
"I've already confird. This building is only intended for hosting parties and gatherings, nothing else," Jude nodded.
"So, which place do you suspect the most?"
"Their headquarters or sowhere in the center of the city," Jude felt the existence of the key from that location the most during their travel to the ball earlier ago.
"That would be difficult, right?" Gilbert felt worried.
"Definitely," Charles can already guess it.
"Wait a mont, the key is moving," Jude suddenly felt sothing.
Kayn, Gilbert, and Charles imdiately beca alert.
"Where is it going?"
"It is approaching us,"
"Is it possible that it noticed us,"
"It could be, but I don't believe it is a person or a monster," Jude was confident with this because if it was a person, he would have sensed it moving around all the ti. And if it is a monster, then it would definitely be the sa size as the Guardian Turtle, which would confirm their assumption that the Assembly of Freedom had constructed their city on top of a monster. However, he would definitely notice that the instant he approaches the city. Not to ntion, the city would have started moving just now.
"I believe it is an item," Jude expressed his assumption.
"So, it is an item with the capability to move a city, right?" Kayn felt relief. Although that ans it is a very powerful item, this also implies that it won't be able to inform anyone that there's another key near it.
"That's right,"
"Since it is approaching us, then most likely this item is with soone who is about to join the ball,"
With that being said, everyone sneaked their way close to the entrance of the building. In this way, they would be able to see better the instant that item appears.
"Would it be possible for the owner to hide the item inside his Storage Ring?" Kayn realized sothing.
"It should be," Jude nodded. "After all, I didn't imdiately notice the item when we first visited this city,"
"No wonder," Kayn understood. This ans that if they want to steal this item, they'll have to make sure the owner doesn't store it inside his Storage Ring, or else there's a big chance that he'll try his best to prevent them from stealing it. "We'll make our plan once we see the owner of the item,"
Gilbert, Jude, and Charles acknowledge.
They continued to wait for half an hour before they spotted a group of carriages arriving at the entrance of the building.
"This person should be very important considering that he didn't use a motor wagon," Gilbert notices the important detail.
"That should be them," Jude muttered.
"Keep your eyes wide open, everyone," Kayn turned serious.
The mont the group of carriages stopped in front of the building, they imdiately noticed Wesley getting out of the building along with a group of people that seems to be Executive of the Assembly of Freedom.
Not long after, a man that everyone knows quite well stepped out of the carriage.
Chief Kylo.
