CHAPTER 40: THE LAMENT OF A KIDNAPPED GIRL PART 1

The Lament of a Kidnapped Girl Part 1

40

Arnaldo had to park his sports car farther away than he intended, all because a crowd was around the portal that appeared in a convenience store.

It was close to lunchtime but the crowd was not still standing firm waiting for the brave hunters who entered the portal about 4 hours ago, there were several reporters covering the area.

Arnaldo showed his identification and a police officer escorted him to the portal location, to his surprise, he found two teams of hunters, one belonged to the hunters association and the other to the blue spirit guild.

"Look, if it isn’t the sword saint of the hunters’ association, what brings you to my portal?"

Before Arnaldo could say anything, a purple-haired woman greeted him in a not-so-friendly way. She was wearing short shorts and long boots that reached her knees, the boots had a metallic finish.

Her breasts were gagged with white ribbons, a small Belize covered her shoulders, her beautiful, well-worked abdomens were on display, at her waist a sword rested in its sheath.

"Vice-leader blue spirit, as always it is a pleasure to see you again" Arnaldo greeted her with a chivalrous gesture and a smile on his lips.

"What are you doing here? Sword Saint, as far as I know this portal is under the jurisdiction of my guild due to the public contest, your presence is not justified."

Tatiana said suspiciously.

"Arnaldo , I prefer to be called by name if possible. I’m sorry for the inconvenience, but another one of my agents ended up in your dungeon by accident. I’m just here to pick him up. I won’t interfere in any of your guild’s business."

The two eyes met and neither of them looked away.

"If it’s just for that then there’s no reason for you to enter my dungeon, I’ll go in now and bring your agent, you can return to your guild"

Hearing Tatiana’s words, Arnaldo gave an embarrassed smile and said slowly.

"I’m afraid I don’t agree with the vice-leader, if it were any other agent I would follow her words, however, the individual in question is a little special"

Tatiana frowned and said dismissively at what she heard.

"What’s special about an agent who accidentally enters a dungeon?"

Arnaldo kept his smile.

"Vice-leader, does the surname Wellny mean anything to you?"

As soon as the surname was uttered, Tatiana’s face lit up knowing she would find someone she wanted to get rid of, and then she looked at Arnaldo and her joy diminished a little.

"What is it, Vice-leader?"

Tatiana didn’t bother to answer, she snorted coldly and entered the portal, Arnaldo followed closely behind.

The two appeared in a dead forest and the portal closed behind them.

"Did you feel that?" Tatiana said with goosebumps, she looked around and headed east into the forest, Arnaldo was right behind.

"Do you feel what I saw, leader? Is there something dangerous here?"

Hearing Arnaldo’s question, Tatiana shrugged.

"Because of the overwhelming strength you display, I sometimes forget you’re a two-star hunter, which reminds me that power alone doesn’t mean much in a dungeon."

Tatiana concentrated on manifesting her authority in her body, a blue-green aura emanated from her body, her feet rose and she rose into the air.

" Take care "

Tatiana left these words behind before disappearing into the dark clouds that covered the entire black forest.

Arnaldo stretched his arms and legs, a golden aura exploded in his body, he jumped from tree to tree following Tatiana, his perception extended in one direction and then he felt a huge battle taking place.

Arnaldo recognized the aura of whoever was fighting and his speed doubled.

Félix was focused on several monitors giving instructions and doing real-time analysis, he was focused on his task ignoring the thief who was looking at him in a peculiar way.

Knowing that there were 20 cameras in every possible angle pointing at the little face Arnaldo left, Alex knew that someone with this class would not take long to get up to mischief, so he wanted to be ready.

Felix remembered how much he had suffered for someone who possessed this class. It was a rare class, and so he was confident he would never see another thief again. And now, right before his eyes, was one.

"Felix"

He was so focused on work that he only heard when he was called for the third time, he turned to see a bright crimson gaze staring at him, Felix jumped.

"Auntie , I mean, general, what are you doing here today?"

The beautiful general with pointy ears and an attractive face glared at Alex and asked.

"Why can’t I get in touch with Arnaldo?"

She looked around and asked another question.

"Where is the Professor’s son? You scared him yesterday in the dungeon and he decided not to work today, didn’t he?"

Smiling dryly Felix explained everything that happened earlier, the general’s pointy ears moved slightly as she sighed.

"Don’t tell me he inherited his father’s bad luck?"

Félix reached out his hand towards the general and a sweet was handed to him.

"If your majesty has inherited the professor’s misfortune, then I’m afraid the Sword Saint won’t be enough. General, should I allocate a team to provide assistance?" The worry could be felt in Felix’s words.

The beautiful general looked at her watch and said.

"If they don’t return within an hour, send a team of 5 three-star hunters."

"Yes, general"

Before he could pass through the door, the general returned and handed a written document to Felix.

" Galax Guild Aiz , isn’t the guild involved in the dungeon break we just participated in? Why are you sending His Majesty there?

Felix asked confused.

"We’re short on personnel, have you forgotten? Since he’s involved anyway, a mission to deal with them is only appropriate."

"General, won’t it be dangerous for your majesty?"

The general looked at the little thief who was silent all the time and pointed.

"This guy just passed the training with flying colors, he’ll go along and Arnaldo will be there too."

"General, His Majesty has had no training, he knows practically nothing about hunters and the like," Felix countered.

"Have you forgotten whose son he is?"

"Of course not, but sometimes genetics skips a generation, I myself am just living proof, I hate politics"
