Chapter 1202: Method
“What?!” Nathan widened his eyes. ’Bell Crusher… Now that I think about it, his power might be able to stop my teleportation. Evelyn’s method relies on the seal of the space element, but the continuous disturbance of ena can also stop teleportation…
’But doing this in the middle of the city will provoke people. No, is he doing this on purpose? All they need is just a few minutes. By the time the city summoners act, they will have caught me first.
’Although they didn’t plan to cause a mess in this city, a simple disturbance wouldn’t cause trouble for them.’
“Are we trapped?” Mae frowned. “I can’t see a way to escape. Teleportation has been sealed. We escape, they will find out. Before leaving the disturbance range, those strong summoners will find us.
“My illusion is still usable to hide us for a bit longer, but it won’t last long. The moment they reach here, this small disruption will be seen through by those crystal fusion stage summoners.”
Nathan couldn’t help but furrow his eyebrows. Just like Mae, he had a hard time coming up with a plan.
At most, they had only several minutes before those people reached them. Sudden movements would be sensed by these people due to Bell Crusher’s power.
But teleportation, which was their trump card, had been sealed.
Even Nathan didn’t expect they would capture him this way.
“We… no, I might have underestimated them a bit too much.” Nathan clicked his tongue.
As soon as they found the incoming trio, there was only a minute before another three people entered this town. The trio must have sped up as well.
In other words, he had a total of 90 seconds to activate the contract and use the teleportation ability to escape.
However, Nathan used those 90 seconds analyzing the situation instead of escaping. Thanks to this decision, he was able to figure out the enemy’s method. However, the cost of that answer was him.
His biggest miscalculation was in the fact that the enemy was able to find him by bypassing even Fenrir.
“Do we have no other choice but to fight it out? We can ask Evelyn to come here right now. We might be able to escape by using everything at our disposal, but it will alert the enemy.” Mae clicked her tongue.
Fenrir sighed. “Do you have a way to escape? You like to use the strategies written in novels, right? Maybe there is a method? After all, your limit is your imagination. If not, we will call Evelyn to fight it out.”
“A method? No, wait.” Nathan widened his eyes in shock. “Fenrir. You are… a genius.”
“Hmm? Me?”
Nathan turned to Mae. “Mae. I need an answer from you. Is your body fine? Are you going to turn into your original form?”
“No, I’m sure you are feeling the same thing right now. Your ena is vibrating. That’s all. It won’t really make me turn back to my original form.”
Nathan couldn’t help but smile. “I have found a method to escape. In many novels, a certain type of character often appears. This character is known to have never been caught after doing misdeeds. People call them by many names, but most of them are known as ’thousand faces’ or something along those lines. Fenrir. It’s your father’s specialty.”
“Ah, shit…” Fenrir finally figured out Nathan’s plan.
Nathan immediately formed two contracts.
“In exchange for 10,000 ena, Tamamo-no-Mae will lend her summoner, Nathan Reckmoon, her skill ’Shapeshift’ for one day.”
“I need you to teach me a bit about how to use this skill. We have only 3 minutes to do it.” Nathan added, “Thanks to Fenrir. I remember three things. The first two things are the novels and Loki. The last thing is the first time I used my contract.
“At that time, I exchanged Fenrir’s skill with ena, which permanently stuck in my skill list. However, this is not a skill exchange but a skill lending. Bought skills can’t be returned, but this type will return to you. This is a way to escape from them.”
Mae took a deep breath, understanding what Nathan was trying to do. She bit her lip and signed the contract.
…
Downstairs, three people were looking around. The two of them were people Nathan had seen previously. They were Alex Tear and Soul Devourer.
The last person was another member of the Death Society.
“Fate. Are you sure this is the place?” Alex Tear asked.
Natasha Fate, one of the six crystal fusion stage summoners in the Death Society, snorted. “If you don’t believe me, why bother asking me to find that guy?”
“Well, I’m just wondering. I couldn’t sense anyone with strong power. There are several summoners, but no one is strong enough.”
Soul Devourer shook his head. “We will trust Natasha’s method. She might not be able to see the details, but her ability is accurate. Besides, don’t forget that the guy has a familiar that can even fool someone at the crystal fusion stage.”
“I know that.” Alex clicked his tongue. “All we need to do is check all the rooms and release a bit of our energy, right?”
“That’s right. Since Bell couldn’t break the illusion with his ability, it’s best to use our own ena to disrupt the illusion.”
Alex snorted. “We can just tear down this whole place. It’s much easier.”
“We have been warned. This time, we can’t afford to make a big ruckus yet, especially in a big city like this. We are waiting for the right time to punish the empire and the dynasty. Until that time arrives, we are not allowed to do much. Only small villages.
“However, if the other party is planning to fight, you may use your power at your discretion,” Natasha warned him.
“Fine.” Alex snorted. “Still, there are only a few doors left, right? Where is he?”
“I don’t know. This is the highest floor. The people here are at a high level, either rich merchants or nobles. If we get rid of them, the people behind them might report the situation.” Soul Devourer sighed while knocking on the door.
The door was opened from the inside by a woman. She had long black hair that went all the way to her butt. However, her face had been covered by a veil, leaving only her enchanting black eyes.
She wore a plain black blouse and long black pants coupled with a long black coat hanging over her shoulder. Everything about her was dark, causing her eyes to feel like they were able to see through everything.
“May I know the reason for your visit?”
