Chapter 212 Dark Guild Secret

After Killing the Scorpion Killer, Ray quickly scouted the area to see if there were any more advanced tier beasts. Unfortunately for him, his luck wasn't so good. The highest tier beasts he could see around him where intermediate class and although he could defeat them and earn some coin, there were more important things to do right now.

Using Noir, Randin and Ray were able to head back to the academy fairly Quickly. Noir had not only gotten bigger after her evolution but also faster. There weren't many improvements in terms of strength and she didn't have any skills or special properties like other beasts but Ray was hoping that the Scorpion killer's beast crystal, would be able to change that.

After riding on Noir for about three hours they had finally made it back to Avrion city. It was night time now but the guards had immediately recognised Noir and lifted the gates open to let her In.

On the whole ride back, Randin couldn't stop staring at the beast crystal they had obtained. Ray thought Randin was an odd man but someone he found hard to dislike. They continued to go through the city until they had finally arrived at Avrion academy.

Slyvia was waiting out front with a black knight as a guard. Ray had informed her beforehand that he would be heading back soon and the mission was a success.

"Has everything been prepared?

" Ray asked.

"Yes, the blacksmith area has been cleared and all the tools Randin asked for are inside,

" Slyvia replied.

Then just as Ray was about to de summon Noir, Randin stopped him.

"Wait, boy, before we head inside, there is something I need from her.

"

Randin then walked up to Noir and pulled out a small blade.

"I mean you no harm but I need a little of your blood,

" Randin said as he took the blade and placed it against her leg.

Randin looked up at Noir to see if she would allow him to, and as if the two were talking some type of secret code, Randin proceeded to make a small cut on Noirs leg and place the blood inside a leather bag.

"She will not be needed anymore,

" Randin said.

The three of them headed inside and proceeded to watch Randin do his work. Randin pulled a small microscopic device and started to inspect the beast stone. After a few minutes of looking at the stone, Radin took out a large piece of paper and started to make a design.

Finally, he had finished sketching on the piece of paper and came over towards Slyvia and Ray.

"I don't know if this is what you were hoping for but it's best if the stone is used to make a type of claw,

" Randin said as he showed Slyvia and Ray the piece of paper.

The piece of paper showed a detailed drawing of Noir, on her legs were metallic objects that went up to the knee but covered her toes and claws.

"The metallic objects will not only protect her best weapon, her speed from being injured but they will also be able to produce the same type of Venom that the scorpion produced,

" Randin explained.

"It's perfect,

" Ray said.

"Before I start, are there any special requests?

"

Ray thought about it for a while until he came up with an answer.

"Do you mind dying the armour in black and red?

" Ray asked.

"Of course.

"

Randin had explained that the process would take a few days to complete. It was quite complicated compare to human Beast armour. The beast crystal would be melted down. Then Noirs blood would be added.

They would need to wait a few days for the blood to sync with the beast crystal. It was hard to tell with the eye alone when this process would be complete and only someone with experience like Randin would be able to tell.

Once the blood and Beast crystal were synced, only then could liquefied metal be added to the mix. If you added it too early, then the beast crystal would be wasted.

Slyvia and Ray decided to leave Randin to his duties as to not distract him. It was getting late and it was time to rest for the day.

The next Day, Ray had asked to meet up with Sir K and Wilfred. He was hoping to discuss with them a way to find advanced tier beasts easier.

Inside one of the meeting rooms, the three of them sat at a table.

"I never thought the day would come where you would be in charge of us?

" Sir K said.

"Please, I am not in charge of you. You guys make your own decision I'm just someone who is overseeing everything.

" Ray replied.

"Sound like you are some type of god,

" Wilfred said laughing.

"Do you have any information about my request?

" Ray asked.

"I'm afraid it's not good news,

" Wilfred replied.

"The Alure kingdom is not known for its strong beasts but even then, being on the borders of the shadow plague have caused most of the beats to run away.

"

"What about underneath the academy?

"

"Yes, we too thought that would be a good idea, since there have always been dangers that lurk beneath the academy, However when we scouted the area there was not a single beast left alive, all that was left were a pile of bones.

"

"What do you mean?

"

"It seems like the Dark guild had something down there that was too strong for them to handle.

" Sir K said.

" From our investigation it looks like it went out of control and killed its own members, then it proceeded to eat everything alive down there.

"

"Any clues to what tier level it's at?

" Ray asked.

"We found the bones of what looked like a Slime snake.

" Sir K replied.

This meant the beast had to be above the king level, perhaps even more. Ray wasn't sure what the Slime snake itself was Ranked, but did know the Minotaurs were at the king stage but the Slime snake was far more powerful. Meaning it was possible the Slime snakes were at the super tier and if something was able to kill them then it might be even higher.

"Is the beast still underground?

"

"That we are not too sure off, we found a new tunnel appear off west to the city that linked to below. We have sealed it up but have no idea if that was the beats or something else.

"

Ray couldn't help but think just what was the Dark guild hiding underground.
