Chapter 197: Infiltration to the Church of Order Part 3
For an ultimate technique to be a mere blood spike, it was utterly disappointing. I already expected it but the disappointment I felt just doubled it. The guy looks like he was going to start grinding his teeth as he struggle what to do.
Then, out of desperation, he went to the person who was covered in the head and tried to grab that person as a hostage. However, I am not someone who will let his guard down and let the enemy get the advantage. I learned that when I am fighting on the tower of babel.
Snap!
The kneeling person is immediately covered in Domain of Balmung before the person who tried to grab can even touch a part of the hostage.
"GAH!" his body rebounded from the barrier, repelling him from going further.
"Is that the only thing you can do using your Philosopher's stone? And here I thought it has more uses than I think about.Too bad, there is no challenge at all. However, I prefer it like that rather than something I will put my life on the line for," as I was speaking, I opened my palm and flames came out from it, greatly shocking the guy.
"Sorcery!?"
"You can say that, but we call this Magic."
And that is the last time he screamed before he dispersed to ashes.
...
After disposing the guy, I picked up the Philosopher's stone to secure it before going to the person with the head covered in a sack. Burning up the restraints and taking off the sack on the head, I saw that this person is a male teenager, a little bit younger than me to be exact. He is unconscious due to the severe blood loss but from the looks on his body, he is not in life-threatening situation so I didn't panic.
Dragging his unconscious body to the corner, I pulled out the reverter and popped one piece on his mouth. In just a few seconds, all of his wounds disappear and the color on his pale face has finally returned. He is still unconscious but he is now fine. He looks like a Japanese but he also looks similar to those handsome guys I saw in town who are being flamboyant about their looks and flirting ladies.
Pulling out my phone, I check the missing people list. Although according to the data filed here, not all of them are currently displayed here as they were all people that were currently has a missing report on the police so these guys are the only ones with records. As for the rest, we have to find them by ourselves which sucks a little bit.
After a few scrolling, one face matches the face of this guy.
"Blue, can you scan this guy's face and compare it to the guy on the photo? I might give out a wrong guess if I guessed it wrong though."
"Although I keep on telling you that this is not my job, since you asked nicely, then lets just get over with this."
Blue scanned the face of the unconscious guy in a jiffy before she compared it.
"Hmm, 100% same face. This guy is the legit one of the missing people. You got one of them down!"
"Thanks. Now we got one finally!"
"Wow Kazuma. Did you eat something unusual today? You seemed to be quite different from usual and you just thanked me. Did an evil spirit just possessed you or something?!"
"How rude! I also know how to say thank you to someone. I am not a jerk like the usual."
"Yeah, yeah, now get your butt off and carry this guy to safety. You still needed to bring him to the safe zone," Blue said, avoiding the topic.
"Alright."
But I am glad that things has finally been to us and one of the leads we have been looking forward into has finally come to fruition. I will let everyone know we got one of the people transported to this world accidentally later.
"Hey! Kazuma? Where are you now?"
That is Ishana's voice. If she is now shouting here, that means they have already cleared the remaining rooms. Checking out the rooms for double checking using [Insight], I concluded that the mission is successful.
...
After that, the guy was returned to Japan using a Portal Scroll that connects this world and our worlds just fine though it only works one way and doesn't work as a gateway to use it to come in our world to this world. Only those we send back using this can get into the portal and return.
While they are doing that, I decided to start chatting on the chat group. Although I was in another world, I can still connect to the chat which is pretty helpful. With this, I can check on what is going on while I am away and since no one from the chat group except the higher ups know my current location, the others will only think I was sent somewhere to fulfill the mission.
I checked on Anya's health and luckily, she is now awakened from the medicine. However, she still needed some rest as she exhausted a lot during the skirmish so now, Anya is currently stuck on the bed for now.
There isn't much topic right now from the others since everyone is also busy from their quests and jobs to chat, therefore, things are a little bit quiet. Godou and Moonlight are both not online so I guess I have to check later.
Going back to the others, the two had smile on their faces as we finally managed to complete one missing person rescued. Although this is too early to call as celebration, it is not bad to call a celebration.
"Let's get back in town and celebrate! I got to loot a few chests here and there in this church so might as well take them!" Ishana happily said.
"Huh? You took some coins? Are you sure we won't get cursed by the church by this?" Yami asked. Clearly, he is not sure either.
"The spoils goes to the winners. It is not bad to take them use them rather than leaving them and letting the others obtain the riches. Now, lets get going already!"
Now that the very first lead that we received has allowed us to find someone, that means even the rumors has the likely to get us connected to the right people.
