Preparing to dismantle a crime ring

58

John's class allowed him to feel what he liked to call an individual's level of importance, Alex is a king, if John managed to steal someone of such a high level, the amount of experience would be significant.

It didn't matter what he stole, but after stealing something from one he would level up, thanks to Felix calling Alex his majesty, John had learned Alex's class.

Vorticity lv2, Minor Invisibility lv2, John used two skills to sneak up to where Alex was, his stealth allowed him to hide his tracks, someone whose perception attribute was below 80 points already plus the notary.

His minor invisibility, as the name suggests, allows him to become invisible for a short period of time, armadillo zero lv2, knowing that Alex was some kind of genius, John decided not to underestimate him and used another one of his abilities.

Currently he was only able to keep three skills activated at the same time, Alex had just been promoted to two stars, and John was already two stars from his awakening, this means he was more proficient in using his authority.

According to Felix , Alex had awakened half a month ago, which is really surprising, but it also means that John had at least 2 more years of experience as a hunter compared to Alex.

John walked slowly moving through Alex's blind spot, John was surprised at himself, when he tried to steal something from the sword saint she wasn't as cautious as she was being now.

Her class told her that Alex didn't carry any valuables, but she still advanced, anything in the possession of a king, regardless of what it was, had some value and that was enough to give her experience.

Initially John was 3 meters away from Alex, he moved shortening the distance between them, little by little, the distance was shortened.

When there were only inches between them, John made his move, his slender hands reaching up to reach for the right pocket of Alex's suit.

His skill zero touch lv2 took effect, the target, no matter how much it was touched, would not feel the touch, for him it was as if nothing was touching him.

However, something happened, what happened? John wondered, he couldn't understand what had happened, he was falling, it was more than thirty stories, and he was falling, what happened.

Feeling his body accelerating towards the distant ground, fear gripped John's heart.

He was a thief and was falling to a height that even a tank or a guardian would not survive, in fact if someone was not three stars, regardless of their class, this person would not survive.

His abilities were deactivated, the wind shook him violently, amidst the cries for help, breathing became difficult, he spun as he fell and had no way to balance himself.

There wasn't enough time for anyone to help, he was falling at 135 kilometers per hour, that's basically 30 meters per second.

John closed his eyes, but the second he opened them to find some way to survive, it would be very ironic if he died like that after all the hardship he went through to become an agent of the hunters' association.

Before he could do anything, the purple glow he saw before he started falling appeared again, a second later, he found himself hugged and no longer falling.

The electricity snaked through his body and the body of the person hugging him, strangely he felt nothing, he couldn't tell if it was his zero ability to touch, or if it was his control over the other person's electricity.

" Are you well?"

The question reached his ears despite the noise the wind made.

" Yes there is?"

John looked away, hiding his face for some reason.

"I'm sorry for throwing you like that, I suddenly felt a threatening presence trying to do something against me, I didn't think, my instincts took over my abilities and I did what I did, I'm really sorry"

John felt the weight that gravity normally imposes on his body disappear, the two fell towards the ground at a calculated speed, it was as if they were both flying, the sensation was pleasant.

"No, it's okay, I'm the one who should be apologizing, I shouldn't have surprised you in the first place." John's voice came out like a mosquito in mid-air.

"What were you doing?" The question came and John didn't know what to answer, but he had to answer somehow.

"Sorry, instinct of my class, I thought I would be able to rob you, I am a thief and occasionally I like to rob people" John said embarrassed, he saw Alex shake his head.

"So that was it, no wonder Felix said to be cautious with you, after all that was it, well, unfortunately for you even if you were successful, I don't have anything of value with me" Alex said smiling ironically.

"You are a king and even if I only stole your cell phone I would already gain some experience"

"I don't have a phone, I lost it when I got arrested last week," Alex said as he put John down.

Without realizing it, they had both landed on the ground softly, surprising the sentry on duty who had to see two hunter men descending from the sky, embracing as if they were a couple.

John saw Alex walking away quickly, somewhat uncomfortable.

"Aren't you coming? We'll be leaving soon," Alex said, entering the association through the front door. John decided to follow him.

"Alex Wellny, that's my name, what's yours?" Alex introduced himself and waited for John to do the same.

"John Venhorst, you can call me by my first name, I just joined the hunters association recently, I haven't been assigned to a department yet, most likely due to my unusual class."

"Venhorst? Are you the governor's son? Or is it just a coincidence?" John was tired of clearing up the misunderstanding; everyone who heard his last name assumed he was connected to the governor in some way.

"Just a coincidence, I am Venhorst and the governor is Venhorst , there is a small difference, although it is similar it is a different name"

"I see, they really are different names, well, I also just joined the hunters association, unfortunately I haven't gone through the academy yet, so if we belong to the same department I'll bother you a little." John saw Alex give a strange smile before clicking on an elevator.

"I trust you are all here?"

There were more than 100 hunters from the hunters association, among them most were one-star and about 30 hunters were two-star and only 10 of them were three-star.

A three-star senior hunter stood at a podium organizing the teams that would take part in the mission.

Quickly 12 teams were formed, among which, 10 of them had a three-star hunter as their leader and only two teams had 2-star hunters as their leader.

As always, most of the hunters from the hunters' association were on a mission, and only a small amount of hunters were selected for this mission.

Arnaldo and Alex stood on the podium alongside the 10 three-star hunters, the 12 hunters who had been selected as team leaders.

Each team formed by the senior agent had 11 hunters, including their leader.
