Before it ceased to exist, the eagle tightened its sharp, lightning claw and powerful purple lightning zapped the black creature with terrifying air on it turned to black fog as it dissipated!
In the way of ascending? No wonder it turns to flee, Narukami silently thought as these creatures share their senses with him. Hearing, seeing, and feeling.
Judging from how it changed to black fog instead of black ashes was because this Anomaly had eaten the necessary human souls to evolve! Probably from rank four to five.
Narukami didn't bother with this. He prepared for such outcomes as soon he heard the cases increased.
Tomorrows' news will cover the missing hundreds of people. I'm curious as to how the government is going to handle this. Narukami thought as he was capable of imagining the news in every media, newspaper, tv, radio, and internet.
[Breaking news: more than hundreds of people mysteriously went missing! Dangerous secret organization on an act? The cults involved?!]
With three hundred Anomalies abnormally swarm this city, scavenging for food. It was certainly the HQ would immediately send the deacons and captain admirals for further investigations, searching the root of its cause.
"Is it because I was a few hours late?" Narukami regretted his decision for delaying the normal procedure. However, it was needed.
'If not for the fact you guys investigating my matters, I probably wouldn't do this,' he muttered lampooned with a self-deprecating smile.
Should those higher-ups get a mission to find the source regarding tonight's event. They had no choice but to avert their investigation from him to this for a short while.
Make him ease and relax.
I guess acting like a detective brought me more attention than I thought. These guys are better than I thought. Cautious and calm, he silently complimented their efficiency.
Narukami wasn't careful, he admitted his preparation wasn't enough but didn't expect someone in HQ could get a few clues this fast.
Narukami didn't know what she/he used to discover him. Regardless, he was informed by his trustworthy informant that the HQ dug up information about him and he had to be careful.
Narukami knew the procedure very well, he didn't waste five years disguising as a rank one sorcerer for naught.
'If following the normal procedure, the branch is going to send a report tonight and in two to three days, a few captain admirals with their squad will be deployed.
Although it slowed their investigation towards me to a considerable rate, it's better than nothing.
Furthermore, with many powerhouses in the city, cults have few to none options to cause havoc. Even if they still try to, with All Beyond in vigilant, they'll be destroyed within twenty-four hours after coming into contact." Narukami felt a sense of happiness as his lips slightly lifted when knowing dangerous cults had to lessen their activities.
Abruptly, he recalled the few reasons why Narukami hasn't get caught or monitored.
The golden brooch had few countermeasures against tracking means but was not all-powerful. In HQ, there were many relics and artifacts with powerful abilities but quite dangerous upon use.
One could say Narukami slightly depended on the brooch and trusted its heaven-defying powers that those olds fools were never going to find out that he arranged fate like a melody.
Yes, he was being a bit cocky but as far as he recalled the feeling only lasted a short moment.
"But they must've known about my family. Though, I doubt they dare enough to lay their fingers on them."
Not because he was powerful and confident enough to take them all down. It was because his family had rather special connections with many powerful organizations.
Indeed, the fact that his family lived many years and was not being knocked on the door by sorcerers showed that his family was something that they shouldn't mess with.
Narukami didn't know what his father or mother did which led to this. He was rather curious.
As one didn't know, demi beings of mythical creatures like him emanate faint yet peculiar aura, distinctive from humans and it could only be detected by high-ranking sorcerers.
Due to this, if not for his family, Narukami either ended up in a cell of All Beyond's HQ or became an ingredient of a potion!
If that happened, Narukami doubted he going to stay in prison for eternity.
