Aftermath- 2

"Father" Tanner says with a determined face, there's something I need to tap to you about"

"Yes son?" Replies Edward with a curious look,

Tanners father Edward Walton is one of Overtakers five executives known as the stallion of Overtaker, he is an A+ rank hero who is known through the land.

"I want to leave the guild"

"Huh? Why would you say such a crazy thing?"

"During the fight today, I realized something, I realized truly how weak I am"

"If you realized that then why leave? Here is the best place for you to grow"

"I know that this place has all the resources for me. But I need to get stronger on my own terms"

"And what do you plan on doing?"

"I-I plan on following Liam Hart"

"Huh? You plan on following someone who is weaker then you?"

"Father if he was weaker then me I wouldn't even bat an eye at him, but he is strong, stronger then me. He was the sole reason we beat Goliath does that even make sense to you? How a E rank student beat a B Rank Monster who evolved to B+ Rank? Cause it doesn't to me"

"While I can admit he did have a impressive victory, are you really going to throw away your future in this guild to follow some E Rank student?"

"Yes, I know with him I can get stronger"

"For all we know he can stagnate and stay an E Rank for life"

"Maybe, but if that was the case, he wouldn't be rank D- right now" Tanner says smirking

'What? From the files I remmeber be was F rank upon entering school, and now he is D- rank? In one and a half weeks? No, that's not possible i was saying E rank for the benefit of the doubt.. Tanners father wonders to himself

"Fine I allow it, I will support you as you are my son."

"Than you father" Tanner says happily

'I will repay you back Liam for everything' just make me stronger

Back at the Academy

In her bedroom

Isabella has been thinking what to tell her friends about the dungeon, and now she is ready to tell them all it. Well besides how strong Liam actually is.

In the group chat:

(Hey guys, I finally want to tell you what happened in the dungeon) - Isabella

(Are you sure Bella? I know you haven't said anything so I never asked)- Natasha

(Yeah, but I didn't tell you guys anything not because of me, but because of Liam) - Isabella

(Liam? The weakest first year?)- Shin

If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

(You always say that) - Ren

(Well everyone says it, I just go with the flow) - Shin

(Actually)- Isabella

(What?)- Shin

(Nvm accident)- Isabella

(Anyways in the dungeon…

They continue to text through the night recapping her night, leaving out the details to make Liam stand out

The underworld:

"Gamor. Come here now" Arthis angered.

"Yes sir vice king?"

"Why, did you fail?"

"I don't know everything was planned perfectly, there's no way they should of seek though it"

"I don't want excuses, I gave you a chance, and you failed."

"Sir, give me another chance I pro-"

As he was finishing his sentence Arthis decapitates him on the spot. All the other demons look with a shocked expression

"I don't care, about what you guys say. I only need results that is all that matters, let this be an example of what happens to those who provide results I am not fond of"

"Art, I have something you might want to see" Klimas says handing a piece of paper

"Oho what is this?"

"Apparently it is because of him that the plan failed"

On the paper Klimas handed him, is a white hair boy with deep blue eyes.

"I see, add him the list of targets"

List of targets:

1. Natasha Nayon- Thomas Nayon- Association

2. Ren Arias- Kyler Arias- Hell Roses

3. Isabella Hall- Oliver Hall- Overtaker

4. Shin Park- Shiho Park- Quick Guard

5. Tanner Walton- Edward Walton-Overtaker

6. Leo Brooks- Shane Brooks- Quick Gaurd

7. Samantha Meyers- David Meyers- Association

8. Lucas Dolores - Jackson Dolores- Hell Roses

9. Ava Sanders- Alexander Sanders- Savior Angels

(10. Liam Hart)- need more information

"Perfect this is the list, it is only one more name so it's not a big issue, everyone who had a hand in sending our king into a slumber." Arthis says shaking, "now another parasite has been added to the list for messing up our chance at ruining the Hall family. We killed his wife, now we just need his daughter"

"Scazar, I need you to find information regarding our new target Liam Hart, his friends his family, what music he likes, what his favorite food is. If it involves him I want it found"

"*yawn, thank you for giving me something easy" Scazar say tiredly

"Next, zaka I need you to…"

The next day in Overtaker Guild infirmary:

"You seem to be completely recovered, I reckoned no extenuating movements as you can still be in slot of pain" says the doctor

"Thank you, I understand"

Upon leaving the infirmary, I head towards Oliver Hall's office. Isabella said he wanted to talk to me' it is probably important

—————

Entering Oliver's Office

"Ah your finally here" Oliver, patiently waiting

"Yes, I just was cleared to leave"

"How are you feeling? Hope you are doing okay"

"Yes, I am feeling better, thank you for taking care of me and allowing me here"

"Nonsense. Who would I be if I left my daughters savior out to dry" he says wiping his face "anyways I called you here to ask you something important"

"Yes sir?"

"What are your thoughts on joining a guild?”

Ah, I figured it would be something like this. While I can't lie joining a guild with the reputation of Overtaker, I just can't.

"I'm sorry sir I have no thoughts of joining a guild right now"

"It doesn't need to be now, just take it into consideration"

"I can consider it but I don't think I can give an answer you are okay with"

"I understand, and I am in your debt. So if you ever need something just tell Isabella and if it is something I can give you please let me know"

"Yes si-"

Wait. This is an opportunity. Should I try asking?

"Actually, Mr Hall, don't mind me for asking but do you have any A Rank swords I can have? I cannot afford anything above my C rank sword I have but in real combat it isn't the most efficient"

'It's not a complete lie, but what I'm looking for is something light.'

"Do you have any swords that are lighter then this one"

I give him my C Rank sword.

"Hmm, fine for saving my daughter I will grant your request. I will allow you to go into the Treasury and grab an A Rank sword"

"R-really?"

I wasn't expecting this, he's allowing me to go into the treasury? Normally guilds don't let anyone enter except for the leaders.

"Yes I will accompany you"

We both walked towards the Treasury and then he opened the doors.

Looking around the variety of weapons that are here, just get me admiring them. While scanning through the swords after a couple minutes

'Yes this one'

Looking at one of the A Rank swords, A katana. It catches my eye because katanas are normally lighter in weight and can still pack a punch.

Licking my lips "can I have this one?"

"I said any A Rank sword, so yes"

I grab it without hesitation, "thank you"

"Okay since that paid off my debt, I shall escort you to the front"

Following Oliver to the front of the Overtaker guild

"If you ever change your mind about considering a guild please let me"

"Yes sir thank you"

Ah, finally back outside. With my new sword and new profession I guess you can say it was a good time in the hopsital? Haha how life changes

Well I guess I should head back to the academy

Back in room 231 of Echo Building

*ring

Laying on my bed I hear my phone get a message

Contact: Tanner Walton

(Hey, can we talk? It's important)- Tanner

Huh.. what could he possibly want to talk about I wonder to myself

(Yes, where do you want to meet?)

(Behind the training hall closest to my building)- Tanner

(Ok going)

Leaving my room, I can't help but wonder what Tanner is thinking of right now. I mean I don't know what is happening.

——————

Behind the training hall building

"Liam, your here"

"Yes Tanner, what is so important?"

"Um I don't know how to say this but.. can I follow you? I can do whatever you ask, and provide you assistance"

This isn't something I saw coming. The story changed. In the novel Tanner became a demon contractee, but now he wants to follow me?

I was right my existence is changing the story, I can't expect it to always follow the story line now. There will be things out my predictions.. how troublesome

"What do you mean follow me?"

"I told my father already and I want to follow you, whatever you need me, but I just want you to fulfill on thing for me"

"What is that"

"I want you to help me get stronger"

Ah, I see and I understand him.

"Fine, but before you follow me how about we make this official?"

"What do you mean?"

"Starting today it won't just be you, but I'm going to recruit people and it's going to be called:

“Integra”
