Chapter 188: The start of my hunt (2)



Hmm, how does the mayor know about this?

There was no way that the investigation teams would voluntarily give their methods to the mayor.

Every person has a certain way of doing things and that way may not be useful in all paths but useful in certain ways of life. These methods would be their way to live a life in this world. No one would give up their livelihood voluntarily.

Either they were forced or there were spies who observed and recorded everything that these investigation teams did.

What\'s the use of that?

I mean if they were asked, though they won\'t spill their secrets, they would certainly tell what they did. They would give an outline of what happened during their investigation and what they uncovered.

There was no need to send spies to watch them.

It\'s not like they were paid before the mission was completed.

If they were paid beforehand, then they should be worried whether they would work or not. There are incidents where they would abscond, which would be a loss for the employer.

There are no such problems here.

The reward was after the mission was completed, not before.

Moreover, if they are worried that the teams would show some false reports to claim some of the rewards for their hard work, they check the results whether the results are right or wrong but that is not what happened.

The Mayor put watchers on these teams beforehand and that means, there are watchers who are observing me and recording what I am doing.

It meant I couldn\'t enter Nexus for the time being to train.

It\'s not like it was unexpected. I expected that things might not go my way on this mission. It\'s not that there is evidence of such a thing happening.

No, I learned that things wouldn\'t always go the way we want unless you can manipulate fate.

This was because what happens in this world doesn\'t depend solely on your actions but on the actions of everyone in the world. The decisions of others would impact our future depending on how we live.

For example, if two high-rankers fight near the place you live without any restrictions. Unless you can either escape or have a defence to protect yourself, you are most likely to die. Of course, if some powerful enough interferes and stops the battle, then you may have a chance to live.

It means that even though you have nothing to do with that battle, your life is not in your hands. It depended on someone else.

This is why people would say that Weakness is a Sin.

You can write your own fate when you are strong enough but my question was how strong should one be to do that.

There was never an end to the strength levels, but there was a restriction to reach those levels.

All races try their best to become the most powerful but when would one say that they were the strongest? By the time one becomes strongest, they will find that there are levels above what they have reached. There was never an end.

I mean one could become the strongest of a village at first but when they see towns and cities, they would try to become the strongest in the region, then the kingdom comes, then large empires and then many continents and then the world.

The world is not the end. There is much more in the universe.

After reaching what point would one could be considered as the strongest. There is no answer.

This is why I say that no one can write their fates. The more you try to do so, the more difficult it will become. Rather than that, it\'s best to experience the life before and see where it would lead to and try to enjoy the way.

Sending some spies to watch the investigators is considered over the line. Even if the teams find out about this transgression, I don\'t think that they would make any fuss over it. Original content from M-VL-em|p,yr

Even if the things were done according to the Mayor\'s words, there was still a Count above him. No one would know whether it was the Count or the Mayor who sent the spies to watch and record their movements.

Even if they did know, there was nothing that they could do.

Reading the reports I feel that those voyeurs were observing me as well but I have no idea how.

I didn\'t feel anything from the time I left the Mayor\'s residence till now. If there are any watching, I can say that they are not amateurs, who would have triggered my response by now.

I think unless I actively seek them out, the chances of finding them are low.

Maybe because there are too many people and this after all the Mayor\'s territory, everyone here in the town is watching and reporting me. If that\'s the case, there is a chance that I won\'t be able to find them out.

There are very few ways that one may that they were under surveillance.

One is that if the watcher has malicious intent against you, then you can pinpoint them using the reverse search method.

Second is if they use any detection methods on you.

Detection is almost considered an attack. Though there would be no damage, if a person used the detection method then his magic would land on you. It can considered synonymous to attacking a being whose armor is higher than your attack damage.

This was why if someone has detection techniques, they would be reluctant to use them on monsters when they are out in the wild. This would alert them of their presence. If the attack is supposed to be a surprise attack, then using a Detection technique might be the death of them.

Unless it was necessary they wouldn\'t use detection techniques on anyone or anything.

If the place is crowded it may not be easy to find who used the technique but there are always people who are good at finding others even in a crowd.

Though I was not like those people, I did find Dorian scanning me back then. I mean he could be the only one who was in that position on that day and it was easy with the way he was looking at me.

He earned a few slaps for that and that ended in his death a year later.

I was lenient and allowed him to live as it was my father\'s territory and I didn\'t want the people to think that my family was a tyrant family. He only died later because he crossed a line.

Now, however, I am not in my father\'s territory. If there are any spies and if I get a whiff of any of them, then there is a chance of me killing them.

I mean, I have a lot of secrets that I hold to my dear life. If they were leaked, my life would be in danger than it was before. I like a quiet and nice day where I don\'t need to wake up to someone trying to kill me.

I mean in two years, I may face that asshole William but I don\'t want to add more.

So before I get strong enough for this world, none of my secrets will be revealed and even then, I am not on keen to show all my secrets to the world.

I read stories where many people would use someone because of their bloodline or skills for their own purposes, covered as something that would be useful for the world.

Let\'s just say that I show that I have a high-purity dragon bloodline, and then the chances of my descendants having similar properties are very high. So in the future where I am not present, others could make use of this strength using illegal and immoral methods.

My descendants may become slaves because of my strength.

I can\'t let that happen. So what the world would know would be a tiny part of my strength. they would never know what I am actually capable of.

So if those spies see something they shouldn\'t, then they wouldn\'t be alive the next moment.

Anyway, that\'s for tomorrow. Let\'s check the maps of the surrounding areas. It could make my life a bit easier tomorrow.

I woke up early in the morning before the sun came up. I freshened up, ate my breakfast and left the town.

This was similar to what the merchant group did as they left the town. Though not everything is in detail, these was the likely possible things that they did before they left.

Let\'s see where it leads to.
