My Last Hunt

Chapter 236: Skipping Away From the Reception

Skipping away from the Reception

Wuza could not understand the secretive behavior of brother hunter however he followed silently. There were many hunters walking around and minding their own business. It was highly unlikely that they would pay attention whether one was leaving after getting registration or without it. Qiao did it professionally while Wuza was tense. Qiao has experienced skipping the class when it was the professor scolding other student. Sometimes when he was aware that his enemies have prepared something to insult him in the lecture; Qiao always skipped it to avoid it. For that day his class bullies can only scratch their heads thinking how on earth he sneaked out of the class under the nose of the professor. 

After he was away from the reception he heaved a sigh of relief. He did not return to the previous path instead followed up the newer one. Qiao was familiar with the structure and patching of the various exits and entrances of the Middletown. The several paths let him learn how simple these hunters wanted their markets and towns. It also showed that they were limited to their present condition. Further improvement was matter of millennium. The blocks were not located after winding paths. 

There were straight walkways and then the mentioned blocks; just that the blocks were not chosen in orderly manner instead of the demand of the usage and the stream of hunters under its shades. The third block comes first from the fifth entrance from where travelers of Middletown approach the Hightown. The elders of the reception never gave map of this direction to the normal hunters. They were strictly ordered to inform the Guild campus within limited time. It hindered them to not bother other directions for they were scared to offend anyone right after coming Hightown. 

"I am afraid we might end up in front of trouble." Wuza could see the mysterious choice of brother hunter and spoke finally. It is not that we will end up in front of trouble instead we are going to look for trouble if I am correct." Qiao voiced easy and relax. The time he decided to bring the blood hunter along; he was quite sure what circumstances he had to face. He was not coward to back down after coming this far. Now he was going to search the right person to talk with. Without knowing whom they should talk with; it was impossible that his argument would work. 

No matter even if he gave solid arguments in front of wrong person; it could only bring effects of someone smashing the head against a wall. For instance for getting a leave from the job he can only submit the application under the responsible department; bring the application in front of the boss would only cause suspicious glaring of the boss in return and the glaring means perhaps the person want salary without working. It can be considered direct insult from the boss. Qiao did not want this to happen. 

His destination was Third Block. "Then I should not trouble brother hunter. You have an ambition on your hand. I don't want brother hunter to face something terrible because of a blood hunter. I can leave back to my home without regretting anything." Wuza voiced concerned. "I am saying the same; there is no charm in becoming a stronger or leveling up if it is smooth however I wanted to offend for a definite cause not for petty things." Qiao answered. Offending smaller hunters would not look challenging. This world and the people here were straight up. They mind their own business as long as they were kept limited to their small world. Few get offended for something trivial. 

"Brother hunter you thought it thoroughly?" Wuza asked taking a deep breath. He puffed his chest with confident since brother hunter was thinking to go all out then he would also die a heroic death saving brother hunter in time of crises. "I did in fact it would be adventurous for me." Qiao chuckled to lighten the tenseness. They were walking now without the exact direction in their heads. For Qiao every walkway would lead to some destiny; he could only wish that it was the same destiny he was looking for. 

The surrounding crowd slowly decreased and only few hunters were walking eventually separating on the way. Most of them were afraid to choose a wrong direction so they cannot bother to look others whether they were on the right mark. It was good for no one will question both Qiao and Wuza. Their pace was normal and unhurried. After a long distance they happened to notice a hunter who was definitely much stronger. He seemed not care them so do they. Wuza cannot tell or predict what was going to happen so he was silent. Qiao was humming his favorite beat. 

The Third Block in the Hightown

Tower of the third Rank Master

A hunter recently came back from a mission which was assigned specifically qualified hunter. His calm appearance and the clothing were evident of his flawless personality. Not just the appearance; most of the hunters who happened to face him ever admitted his strength as well as his character traits which differ from others in several manners. The third Tower was not expecting him to leave the previous team and come back in the Hightown. Previously he joined a team of Diggers. It revolved around his incomplete competence in the Hunter King Test Trials. 

No doubt he was strong and capable however one out of five requirements was incomplete. He was waiting for someone in the Hightown occasionally taking missions to kill his time. One of the Third Rank Master was sitting on the grand chair with his symbolic death sign on his forehead. This Rank Master was here for next three months and will let the senior hunters divide the missions accordingly. All urgent missions were meant to reach the Third Tower and should be handed immediately to the right hunter for the action. 

This said the Third Tower was famous for holding the strings of the level eight hunters and granting them missions. The Rank Master of this tower was responsible to inform the second Tower about the qualification of the hunter when he wanted to apply for the Hunter King Test Trials. Nothing could go randomly inside the Hightown unless the Hightown itself wanted it to happen. 

The level eight hunters directly access the Third Tower and the Rank Master. There were total twelve Rank masters in the Third Tower and they were assigned their respective responsibilities.
