Divine Path System Chapter 363 - The Mission Is Incorrect

Chapter 363 - The Mission Is Incorrect

"Anger is bad for health, Edwina." Varian leaned back in his seat and gazed at the fuming woman.

It was a typical two seater train. So, there were only two of them sitting side by side.

But her words caused the cadets around them to turn towards her.

Edwina glared at them like an angry cat and they all turned back like they didn't see her beet red face on the verge of exploding with rage.

Some of them knew the 'actual' relations.h.i.+p between Edgar Blanc and Edwina. They thought it was some 'family' dispute.

But to most, Edgar was a genius transfer student while Edwina was a genius alumni working as a Teaching a.s.sistant.

They thought he offended her somehow.

"Haa~" After taking a deep breath, Edwina turned to the silver haired youth and gritted her teeth. "Why didn't you to come to my home?"

"?!"

Her words caused everyone to turn their gazes towards her. This time, they was full of ambiguity and curiosity.

Some enthusiasts with overly creative brain already started spinning stories.

In a few seconds, posts relating to a certain taboo topic was lit on the forum.

Edwina didn't know this. Nor did she care.

For the past two days, she was banging her head on the wall due to Edgar.

In truth, she was on the verge of being promoted to a higher rank in the organization.

This was a crucial mission. Initially, she thought it'd be easy. After seeing the newbie was a level 6, she was overjoyed.

With her a.s.sistance, a level 6 could easily finish the mission.

But what happened next could only be described as nightmare.

Varian didn't try getting close to Betty. In fact, he even p.i.s.sed her off. Now, the girl who despised everyone hated him.

Worse, when she tried to contact him yesterday evening, he said he was busy.

Really? What the h.e.l.l was he busy with?

Edwina was utterly furious.

When Varian said he wanted a leave until the compet.i.tion, her rage slipped past the tipping point.

"Do you think this is a joke?" Edwina closed her eyes and said slowly.

But her voice now was much, much colder. She decided, if he didn't cooperate with her, she'd beat sense into him.

By disrespecting the mission, he was disrespecting the hard work of so many people.

Did he really think it was easy to find out that Betty was a kidnapping target?

"I was busy yesterday. I tried to meet you in the morning, but you were busy. You're the sole reason I'm attending the academy today.

And no, I'm treating this more seriously than you think." Varian's voice sounded in her mind, causing Edwina to flinch.

He's a telepath?

But from the way he injured Vinar, he was also a Body Awakener.

So, a level 6 dual awakener? So young?

For a moment, the sheer shock at the realization caused her to halt.

Varian smiled lightly and his voice in her head continued. "I know who's going to kidnap Betty and who's the accomplice. Betty will be safe."

"…" Edwina opened her mouth, but no words came out.

She looked around and tapped her comm furiously.

{Are you kidding me? How can you know?}

"It's my personal secret. But Betty will be unharmed. I'll need to look into this and find the bigger secrets."

{Unharmed? So you mean she'll be kidnapped, but you'll rescue her?} Betty caught the implication of his words.

"Yes. It's necessary."

{We're done. I'll report this to the higher ups. And stay in my sight or I'll have to neutralize you.} Edwina's eyes turned indifferent.

"…." Varian sighed lightly. He knew it. She followed rules to the last letter. Someone like her wouldn't believe his words or accept his approach.

Well, no sane human with an iota of common sense would believe him.

That's why,

[Enigma,

My mission: "Stopping the kidnapping" is incorrect. I propose changing it. I'll be using the kidnapped as the medium to get access to Black Market.

I know that other members of the Guardians and Athena agents are trying to do the same, but I want to get involved.

And due to my…uniqueness, I have a good shot at finding what others couldn't.

So, yeah, I just wanted to inform you.

Also, say hi to Sia for me. My memory recovery in on the way. I'll meet her soon.

Yours truly, Dreamer.]

He sent a message her to earlier today.

To be honest, when he typed 'The mission is incorrect', Varian felt his chest swell with pride.

It was like a student attending an exam and correcting the questions. If this wasn't a moment of pride, he didn't know what was.

Edwina looked up from her comm and emphasized again. {Do not test my patience. Stay in sight, and I won't hurt you. I just informed the higher ups.}

"I informed the highest-up." Varian's voice sounded in her mind.

{Highest up?} Edwina wondered if her vocabulary was lacking. Was that even a word? {Whatever. Stay in my sight.}

"…" Varian turned his head and gazed out of the window.

Once Enigma's message came, Edwina would calm down. Trying to convince her now was pointless.

The hover train quickly was a few dozen meters above the ground and dashed through the special route.

It pa.s.sed below the floating buildings, along the skyline of bustling districts and and above the dirty slums.

In a few minutes, it was at the edge of the city.

Since Valos city was in the shape of a disc, when they reached the edge of the city, Varian could see the dark and empty s.p.a.ce.

"Haa~" The train pa.s.sed through a huge security checkpoint and entered the city on the other side of the disc.

For a split second, Varian felt like he was jolted out of his seat before things turned back to normal.

'Gravity…' He noted.

The gravity was always towards the surface of the city. He didn't know how they achieved it, but these days, everyone took it for granted.

"We've reached the Military City. Please cooperate with the security check." An AI announced.

Varian glanced at the ring on his finger and Boo understood. It silently disappeared.

Soon, numerous bots entered the train and scanned them one by one.

Then, soldiers in offensive posture appeared and personally checked them. Even their storage rings were searched.

"Submit your comms! If you're found breaking any rules, expect heavy penalties. The military court isn't lenient." A stoic soldier with orange beard informed and waved his hand.

"Follow me."
