Chapter 335 Strange Traveller
335 Strange Traveller
"Seems like my bloodlust has been suppressed for today," Blair mutters, looking at the beasts on the ground. Suddenly, something catches her attention. A spaceship is flying in the air, towards her direction. At first, she ignores it, not until the spaceship lands in front of her.
Emerging from the spaceship is a burly dark man accompanied by two average men, all wearing the same uniform, a clear indication that they are from Nirvana Faction.
"Good day, I am Michael, a rank B traveller from Nirvana Faction," the man introduces himself as he stops in front of Blair.
"You are too close for safety though," Blair mutters in a low voice, giving a wide spread of space between herself and the strange people.
"We are sorry about that. We were sent here by our faction leader after learning that you were killing beasts on a large scale. Can we see your traveller's card, please?" The burly man asks.
"Sure," Blair replies, a blue plastic-like card appearing in her hand. She hands it to the burly man, who, upon inspecting it, has his eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.
"Hunters Faction; SS Rank traveller. That means you have killed a demon-rank beast before," the man mutters, shock evident on his face. After being shocked for a while, he regains his composure.
"Well... I came here because our faction leader requests to see you. In case you don't know, we dominate this planet, so it's our base. Seeing another traveller go on a hunting spree on our planet, it's normal for us to take action," The burly man explains while Blair nods her head in understanding.
'Well, since I am done for today, I guess it's not a bad idea to hear what their leader wants to say. I hope he's not a perverted one like the one I killed a few days ago,' Blair thinks inwardly as she sheaths her large sword.
"Alright... I'll follow you all," Blair says, ready to move. But Michael doesn't seem to be pleased for some reason.
"Ahem... What about all the beast crystals?" Michael finally asks.
"Oh that... Well, I don't actually have a need for that. You can take it," Blair answers, rubbing the back of her head. All she needed was to quench her bloodlust.
"W-We should take it?!" Michael asks in shock, once again in awe of this mysterious girl in front of him.
Without waiting to slice the beasts open and remove their crystals, Michael orders his men to store all the beast corpses inside a space ring. Once done, he comes to back Blair, stopping in front of her.
"May I know your name, miss?" Michael requests. But Blair squints her eyes.
"You don't need to know my name. Besides, I gave you my card the other time. I think it's best if you don't bug me," Blair replies in disgust, flashing her wedding ring at Michael's face.
Seeing Blair's wedding ring, Michael's shock even skyrockets to another level. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"I am sorry about that... Can we proceed?" Michael asks, gesturing with his hand to Blair for the to enter the spaceship. Blair nods her head in affirmation.
Once they get into the spaceship, Michael puts the spaceship on autopilot since it's already accustomed to the region of this place. Heck, there is already a mini-map for this planet.
During their journey to the base, several thoughts race in Michael's mind.
'She's such a young girl... Yet she's already married. Who is she married to? Her husband must probably be a big-shot on earth. But why don't I know about her or why isn't she popular?'
'This doesn't even make any sense because if she was forced into an arranged marriage, she wouldn't be so proud of showing her wedding ring. That's a big sign that she loves whoever is her husband because I wasn't even trying to take a jab at her, I simply asked for her name. Now, that I notice... She looks kinda pregnant...' Michael muses as he observes Blair with keen eyes.
As if noticing the intense glare on her, Blair turns her head with a sharp jerk.
________________________________________________________________
Back in the Nirvana Faction base, a group of people can be seen sitting around a rectangular-shaped table with worried looks on their faces. All the people seated here are the top members of the Nirvana Faction and the strongest.
"The reason why I called for this meeting is because a report was sent to me a while ago. We're all aware of the sudden disappearance and constant migration of the beasts on this planet. Heck, they even abandoned their nest. The one behind this change is a person..." The figure speaks, taking a small break.
"A single person. I heard she's an SS-Rank traveller and a very young girl at that. According to the reports, she must have graduated from high school recently and she's married. That's not all, she's a member of a big hostile faction," The figure explains to the other members, and a big shock appears on their faces while their bowels contract in fear.
It's not the rank of the traveller that they are afraid of, rather, the faction the traveller came from. Many thoughts are racing through their minds.
Was the traveller sent here to attack them? Were they belittled that they sent a single traveller to wipe all the beasts on their planets so as to force them to attack them first so that the Hunters Faction won't be judged if they were to take over their planet.
"Weird right...?" The figure says again. "However, what's funny is that the said traveller isn't interested in the beast crystals. She told the people I sent there to take all the rewards for themselves. Crystals worth six months budgets of the faction spending. That just makes her too dangerous," The figure lets out a sigh in exhaustion.
In the middle of their conversation, the door suddenly bursts open, and a man wearing the Nirvana Faction uniform enters, giving a deep bow.
"The spaceship is back,"
With this announcement, the eyes of all the board members widen while the Faction leader also tightens their grip on their weapon.
