After a few hours of peaceful sleep, rather than sleeping while being watched by the Underworld, this was heaven itself.
"Let's go."
Timothy used up one of the three blink abilities to teleport himself without using the rope.
The advantage he had was, whatever he would be holding, will be teleported with him.
Rather than going through that small narrow tunnel once again, We held Timothy's arms.
The weight load was increased, so he couldn't teleport us with him.
"One person at a time, I see."
We decided on playing Rock Paper Scissors to decide who will be going first.
Jack won by using Rock to defeat my Scissors.
"Ah, I was bad at this game from the beginning of my life, my luck sucks."
"Loser." They both teleported outside, Timothy used blink once again to teleport beside me.
Now it was my turn to be teleported, After the teleportation had occured, We were safely outside of that special ranked Cave.
"I can't find a signal here, I will be moving further up the mountain to see if I can get any signal up there!" Said Jack, jumping higher and higher with each jump reaching the top just after a few moments.
"Ah, There's network up here! Let me call Mr. K up here!"
"Mr. K?" I spoke, as I hadn't met anyone with the initial K just yet, He answered that the driver we came here with, was Mr. K, an underdog of the Mistress.
"He says that he will be arriving in an hour! What do we do till then!?" Because the distance between Jack and the two of us was over 100 meters away, It was hard to hear his voice, but I could tell by the motion his lips are moving.
"Oii!! You understand right! Do you hear me!?"
I raised up one of my arms and waved it at him indicating for him to quickly join forces with us as soon as possible so that we could discover what we planned further.
"Should we tell this K dude about what happened?"
"I don't think that's necessary though, 3 of us are contracted, only 9 remain, What if I tell Mr. K and he steals all those contracts for himself? That would be troublesome, won't it?"
"Yeah you're right, that will be quite troublesome indeed."
After an hour of exploring the mountain, we heard sounds of a battle from the north of the mountain, It sounded like a lot of people were fighting for the authority of a greater power..
"No! The crown will be mine!"
"Haa!! Take it if you can!"
Further down the road, We found people of a nearby village fighting, infront of them, was a crown made of gold on top of a tree.
Blood was spilt everywhere, there was presence of an all out war between two following Tribes.
"Wait, Mr John I recognise those clothes.."
"What's up with that, Timothy? Are you telling me you recognise them?"
"No this must be a mistake, How can I recognise such things."
That was pretty suspicious, But I decided to not pay any heed to his so called statement.
"Let us stay here and observe them for some time, if both parties die, we can take that crown for ourselves." I decided, because of lack of money to spend, since the money we got from Her was just for business purposes, I need some pocket money to spend on my own."
"Wait that's robbing people of their riches!" Disagreed Jack, Jack was a righteous man, He thought of himself as the Knight In Shining White Armor for those in need.
"They will not take the crown with them to their graves now, will they?" I replied, while his hero act annoys me quite a bit, I can't lie that he is a valuable asset towards destroying the association from the inside as a whole.
The driver had arrived, While the car was still on the footpath, Mr K personally came to pick us up with another man.
"Mr John! Jack! Timothy! Where are you?" They called out to us, I sent Timothy to bring them over here, Because if they heard that man's voice, It might also become a possibility that they might join forces to kill us.
"Timothy, go bring those idiots over here."
With Timothy gone, I was prepared with a plan to steal the crown.
It was time I used my newest ability! Stealth.
"Stealth!" Just calling out its name in my mind allows me to activate it on its own.
I slowly walked over to those fighters, the tree where the crown was hanged was right behind them, and I had to cross them over to steal the crown.
I expected Jack to show off his hero act once again, but he was pretty obedient this time around.
I asked him to use his passive Ability "Aggro" to draw the attention of those villagers to himself while I slowly take the crown and move away.
"Guess money can really buy everyone and everything huh?"
I kept moving, But god curse my life, I stepped on a goddamn snake.
Even if it couldn't sense my presence, His self defense was him biting my leg.
I let out small gasps for air every now and then while walking but I had to keep moving because of my extreme desire to collect money.
"Is this really okay?"
Those stupid bastards got a hang of the situation from Timothy who informed them what was happening currently, so they helped Jack and turned their attention towards themselves.
"This was the perfect opportunity to take the crown and run for my life, because who cares if some guys die in the middle of the forest.
But that is exactly what I couldn't do, my hunger for revenge towards the Association wouldn't let me take another step, Stealth was running out, I had to decide what to do and be quick with my decision.
"Ah shit."
