CHAPTER 199: TROUBLE

“Do you mind if I join you? Eating alone is boring and it is not like I have company every day.”

“It would be our honor if you joined us.”

They completely changed the way I was treated. I brought out rich food since it had been quite some time since I ate with someone else.

“Please enjoy. Do you mind if I ask you how did you get here? I did not expect guests so soon.”

“Well since boss took over the dungeon, we decided to test our strength as well as provide a map for our juniors. But that seems unnecessary now. After all this is an ideal place to improve your power.”

Hmm, now that he said it, this is a good place for raising the power of a team and individual levels. But only lower levels though. I would need more powerful foes to improve my battle skills.

“Well you certainly surprised me. Keep up the good work.”

“””Thank you!”””

The rest of the dinner was spent in idle chatter. I learned that the four of them are about to go and try for promotion test and that is why they are training. It was frustrating that I couldn’t blatantly ask them just what group they belong to sine they acted like I was already part of the same group. But other than that I learned that someone messed up and that is why promotion test is being held and all four of them dream of becoming the strongest.

When everyone left for bed I decided to use the power of Daphira to gather some more information. I had her enter the room where two of the guys were staying at and spy on them as well as later on attaching herself to one of them and extracting additional information.

I didn’t want to mess with the girl since she seems the most observant, not to mention she has some magic that allows her to read the information of others. It is simply too risky. That is why the only thing I could do was wait for Daphira to come back.

“Nao-chan, terrible news! You’re in trouble!”

“Huh? Calm down, breathe, what happened?”

Daphira was gone only for half an hour and was already back. Was she spotted? But why am I in trouble?

“Those guys were talking about kidnapping you and bringing you to their boss. Apparently, you are the most wanted person in their group. I heard them say they would snatch you and use that to gain more influence in the group.”

Seriously? I didn’t get such vibe from them. To me it felt more like they were admiring me instead of plotting against me. What made them change their minds all of a sudden? Also what group would want that? Is it one of those unhappy with the growth of my clan? That is seems possible.

“Which group do they belong to? Were you able to get that?”

“Are you serious?! They’re from Black Hand, who else would it be? You need to get rid of them, they are a danger to you.”

Oh, so it is them. I should have expected that sooner or later. I didn’t think it would be this soon.

“Hang on, did they explicitly say they would kidnap me. I highly doubt they could act so well all the time.”

“They said that once they are out of the dungeon, they would steal you away from the party and kidnap you.”

Oh my, they don’t even know what I look like and they are planning on doing all this. This is perfect, I can use it to my advantage. I had to unsummon Daphira since she wouldn’t shut up and stop telling me to run away or get rid of them. I thought of plan where I would be the one using them instead and then went to sleep.

The morning arrived and I decided to put my plan into action. I thought about it and decided to reward them since they were the first ones to reach this place. I took out four mana crystals and enchanted them to amplify magic of the holder as well as imprint a picture every hour. Also to ensure the safety of the data in case it gets destroyed I made the magic crystal carry my soul imprint. That way I would be able to know what was stored inside. This magic came from the way Archduke used his own aura as point in which he would appear.

“Good morning, breakfast is prepared, please enjoy.”

“Thank you!”

“What are you doing next? I assume you are going to be diving deeper into this dungeon. You guys are really hard-working and I want to reward that. Since you are also the first ones to reach this place I want to give you a small gift in order for your group to grow stronger.”

I saw a glint in their eyes. They were definitely planning to get stronger and the mention of a reward fired them up.

“Yes, we plan on reaching the 25th floor before returning. Past 25th floor is restricted area so only full members can go. Can you tell us what is beyond there, I’m really curious.”

“If you want to find out please get a promotion. Please accept these earrings, it is an accessory I came across a long time ago. They can help you improve your magic slightly. I’m giving them to you in hopes you would get stronger.”

I gave them the magic crystals that I prepared. They seemed thrilled about receiving them. Now I just need to hope they don’t take them off. I choose magic amplification since those items are rare.

“Thank you for everything Viscountess. We will not disappoint you!”

“Work hard.”

The party belonging to the Black Hand left and I decided it was time to return. It was fun leveling in this place, but getting this information out was more important. Once they were out of sight I immediately packed everything and went for the exit.
