Chapter 1229: Ch 1229: First Encounter

Three months had passed with those rank 10 powerhouses not making any moves. This did calm the general population down but it was a big headache for the higher ups.

From all the incidents and evidences that the magi had found, there was absolutely no doubt that all three of these rank 10 powerhouses were extremely ruthless and cruel.

So them not making any moves only meant one thing, they were hiding somewhere and were most probably aware that they had been found out.

This was definitely not a good thing. This meant that the magus powerhouses were in the light while these evil killers were in the dark and had the advantage.

As even the supreme magus himself could not find them, all the powerhouses of the magus world were trying to use brute force method to get any clue about them.

So far, with extreme determination, they had managed to go through most of the populated areas and had found absolutely nothing.

But that was only natural. The world of the Sora was extremely big and there were various places with little to no life present. So if the rank 10 powerhouses responsible for this trouble were hiding in any of those places, it made sense that they would be hard to find.

Shin and his team were also doing their best to find the culprit. At the same time, they were also trying to increase their strength as soon as they could.

If they really wanted to contribute to this hunt, Ren reaching the rank of 10 was a must. Without that, even if they found the rank 10 powerhouse, they would not be able to do anything against that person.

Among Ren’s group, the only person who had even a remote chance of actually killing a rank 10 powerhouse was Shuzu and only her.

That was why, Ren was trying very hard to reach the rank of 10 as soon as possible. So while continuing the search, he was also doing a lot of training with his powers.

...

While all of this was happening in the world of the magi, in the castle located under the sea depths, Jaun was still busy with his training to reach the peak of rank 10.

In the meantime, both of the ladies were feeling extremely bored. Throughout their whole life, they had been fighting continuosly.

If they had a normal mind and common sensibility, then they would have understood that their current situation was extremely good. That way, they would have enjoyed this never before experienced peace.

But both Sera and Ann were wrapped in the head. So instead of feeling any peace, they were feeling bored and were having withdrawal symptoms. And the reason for their withdrawal was because they had not killed many people in the last three months.

Actually, the only reason why they had managed to hold themselves back for so long was because they had a few hostages with them. So for the last few months, the ladies had tortured and killed them in order to stay sane.

But the number of hostages was very limited and they were reaching the end of the line. So now the ladies were really wanting to go out and have some bloody fights.

And when their heart was earning for going out, it did not take their mind too long to come up with an idea.

It was Ann who made the declaration that it had been a very long time that they had stayed silent and had not done anything. So, if this continued, then the magi would calm down and would start to think carefully.

So there was a need to keep them on edge. And the best way to do that was for one them to go out and cause some mayhem.

But that person also needed to be careful about not going too far. That was because they did not want to attract the attention of the rank 11 powerhouse no matter what.

...

Even though this idea was very flawed, to both of the ladies, this was a good enough justification. So very soon, both of them started to discuss who would be going out.

As Ann was the one who had actually came up with this idea, she used that to go out first. And it was decided by both of the ladies that no matter what, she would not be staying out for more than 6 hours.

Even though the ladies had almost lost their mind in bloodlust, they still had the sense to understand that staying out for too long would be extremely dangerous and could even expose their secret hideout.

That was why they came to with the hard limit of 6 hours as the ladies judged that with their strength, they should be able to stay out for that much time safely.

...

During their searching operation, Shin and his party were staying in a village of dwarves. This village was located in a very remote place but this place housed a lot of old dwarves who were retired legendary blacksmiths.

So Shin and his party was here not only to rest but also to do some basic repairs to their weapons. With their rapid strength growth, it was hard for weapons to keep up with Shin and his party.

But then, very suddenly, they had ended up getting acquainted with an old dwarf and had helped him out a little. That way, his whole team had ended up getting to know about this village and solved their weapon quality problem completely with the help of the dwarves.

...

After coming out of the hidden location under the sea, Ann did not waste any time thinking where she wanted to go.

She had already decided which places she was going to destroy. There were four areas that she was targetting in this short outing of hers and the number one in her list was a remote village of the dwarves.

Among the people she had killed and had extracted information from, there was a dwarf who was aware of this remote village. And from the looks of it, this place had close connection with the magi who were after them.

So killing those ugly dwarves would not only give her satisfaction, this was also going to help her beloved Jaun out in the long run. So this justified in her mind that she was not being selfish.

Then, she disappeared from her location and teleportated directly to the village. And when this happened, Shin and his friends had just gotten their weapons back and they were planning to go out the village for a little hunt and to check the weapons out.

So what was going to happen now ?
