Chapter 112: A mission within a mission



Anthony woke up from his angry slumber.

He looked outside the window as the sun shined down his face.

\'I guess we would be leaving tomorrow as the leader said\'

Anthony thought as he left his bed and went about his usual morning routine.

He went to the same dining and ate to his content.

This time he didn\'t meet any of his teammates and met only those that flirted with him the day before.

Seven hours later...

Amos, Chika and Zayne could be seen talking and laughing in Zayne\'s room happily.

As they discussed amongst one another, their phones all beeped at the same time.

When it beeped, they all frowned.

Although it was normal for a phone to beep, but three beeping at the same time isn\'t a good sign at all.

They all looked at one other for a while before Amos looked at his phone first before others.

As he read through the content, he kept an expressionless face till he got to the bottom part where he stopped in shock.

The rest of the crew seeing this, immediately read through the message.

They all had the same expression because what they saw at the end of the message was too shocking.

The message they received was simple and straightforward, it was a mission.....an assassination mission to be exact.

Their mission was to kill Anthony anyhow they saw fit before he returns to the Academy.

The part that made them fall into shock was the price tagged at the ending of the message.

It was a whopping one Billion top mana crystals.

Such amount of money they didn\'t even dare to dream about.

They have never seen a million top mana crystals talk more of a billion of it.

They could only imagine what they could do with so much money in their hands.

Their cultivation would skyrocket and move through leaps and bounds due to abundance of resources.

The sender of the mission remained anonymous, so they didn\'t know who gave them the mission.

But the trio couldn\'t careless about this as it wasn\'t their concern.

Their concern was how to kill Anthony and how to share the reward stated.

The three of them nodded their heads and were about to start their discussion about the mission.

But before they could even start, they heard a knock on the door.

The three of them frowned again but this time, it was at the same time.

They just got an offer of a life time and a knock sounded at the same time?, it sounded too coincidental to be true.

They all drew their weapons just incase they had to make a move at any moment.

Amos walked up to the door with his right hand now placed on his sword, then using the left to open the door.

As the door swung open, he saw the remaining group which were four in numbers, which are Meek, the masked man, Clara and Zara.

Meek is a straight to business type guy so he didn\'t bother to beat around the bush and asked in a straight forward manner.

"Did you receive the message"

Amos looked at him for a second to be sure that they were talking about the same message, then nodded his head.

After his confirmation, Meek didn\'t waste any other words and just walked in and sat down together with the rest.

As they sat together, everyone kept quiet and waited for who was to speak first.

Amos sighed as he didn\'t want to keep waiting for who would speak first.

So he created barrier with his aura to block any of their discussion from spreading out.

"My team would be accepting this mission"

Amos said as soon as he was done creating the barrier.

"My sister and I would also accept the mission" Clara said with a smile.

Then they all turned to Meek and the masked man, they all waited for his answer.

Meek tapped his fingers on the table as various thoughts went through his mind at lightning speed.

A billion top mana crystals was something only the truly rich and powerful could possess

And for Anthony to incur the wrath of these people meant he wasn\'t an ordinary person.

If Anthony was a small time player like the rest of them here, the person intending to kill Anthony won\'t need to send out an \'anonymous\' assassination mission.

They won\'t even bother hiring weaklings like them, instead they would send one of theirs after Anthony.

This also meant that Anthony has a powerhouse or force behind him either as strong as them or even more formidable making them send out an anonymous assassination mission.

Besides, he (Meek) wasn\'t ready to risk anything right now as he already acquired a massive amount of resources through his last deal just some hours ago.

He wasn\'t ready to risk it all for another one.

Although he was greedy and hungry for such reward that came with the mission, but he wasn\'t a fool to step into such an obvious trap.

And he is also a businessman, knowing when to be greedy and when not to be is one of the required skills of business.

Besides, it might seem like they had the advantage and all that with their number and strength, but what if they don\'t actually have any advantage.

The only thing they needed to be wary about was the mana container that allows Anthony store mana which he used to span spells all day before he stopped as mana had finished.

Meek wasn\'t ready to believe that Anthony didn\'t have another trump card up his sleeves.

Having such vast amount of mana saved up was worthy of being a trump card, and someone just pulling out something like that like it was garbage meant that the person even has a stronger trump card waiting.

As far as their rate of success wasn\'t a hundred percent, Meek wasn\'t ready to take any risk at all.

If he hadn\'t acquired his current resources through the sale of the dragon heart, he might have accepted the mission.

So Meek chose to play it safe.

As for the rest of the team, he didn\'t bother to relay this information and his thoughts to them, after all, why should he?

All these thoughts flashed Meek\'s mind in less than two seconds as his businessman thinking skills came into play.

He then looked at them and replied.

"I won\'t be joining"

The others were surprised that someone actually turned down such a reward.

With that, they started discussing how to share the reward and other things.

"Although we should be wary of that mana tank Anthony carries around, I\'m sure he has spent almost all of it with those spells he casted the other day"

Zara said as she licked her lips.

"I also refuse to believe that such mana could be recovered easily, so its possible he won\'t have the same amount of mana as before"

Amos said with a grin.

The thought of a billion top mana crystals still playing in their minds. discover-MVLeMpYr-novels

As they discussed, they finally got to the reward part.

They argued who would get Anthony\'s mana saving artifact.

As they saw they couldn\'t land on a conclusion, they decided to leave it for whoever made the most effort.

As for the remaining things on Anthony, they decided to share it twenty percent each person since they were just five of them here.

As they all agreed to share the remaining loot twenty percent each, Meek\'s voice sounded.

"Aren\'t you forgetting about me, although I won\'t be getting any reward from the one billion top mana crystals, at least I should get something from Anthony\'s corpse, don\'t you all agree"

"Don\'t get greedy Meek, why should you get something when you aren\'t even lifting a finger during the battle"

Zara said as he started unleashing a tiny bit of killing intent.

The others didn\'t reply and just waited for his response because they all had the same question.

"Well, although I won\'t be lifting a finger during the battle, I can at least interfere after the battle"

Immediately Meek said that, his bodyguard\'s Grandmaster aura instantly flared.

Meek\'s business mind skill coming into play yet again at this time.

Although he won\'t fight, after they kill Anthony his bodyguard can at least fight them and kill some of them making them to bend to his will and have no choice than to give up some rewards....if all of them were alive at that time that is.

This was what Meek had in mind when he made that proposal.

And he was sure that they too had this thought in mind as anything could happen on a battlefield.

In an event where Anthony decided to drag out the battle and exhausting their mana and stamina, Meek could just decide to slaughter them like dogs after that.

They won\'t make a bet that they could finish off Anthony immediately without exhausting their mana and stamina as a battlefield was ever changing.

So, they could only compromise and allow Meek have some reward from Anthony\'s corpse but not the reward for assassination.

Meek smiled as his plan had worked out perfectly.

This way, if the team succeeded, he (Meek) would still reap rewards and then even if they all fail and Anthony wipes them out, he would still be alive since he didn\'t interfere in the fight, so his life is the reward.

Therefore he wins in whichever path blooms into reality.

Zayne snorted and said with a stern voice.

"We will all have to a sign a mana contract"

Others also nodded as Meek what just said has caused a problem.

With the amount of assassination reward, who is to say that even Chika won\'t wipe out all of them in order to keep the reward for himself.

Although Chika couldn\'t take on all of them at same time, there were many ways to kill someone without even lifting a finger.

So they all signed a mana contract that made them unable to betray one another from this moment on, of course only in aspect to the assassination and not their entire lives.

The only requirement for a mana contract was the ability to weild mana and that\'s all.

So even a newly awakened F ranker can sign a mana contract.

In other to use a mana contract, all you have to do is will it, and a blank sheet of paper would materialize in front of you.

And with a thought all your thoughts would appear on the paper which would be signed in your name.

Of course others have tried to falsify their names or sign others names on a mana contract and suffered the consequences.

So during any mana contract signing, people only have to look out for loopholes and word play that is on the mana contract.

After signing the mana contract, Meek stood up and left as he had nothing left to do there.

This was how cruel this world was, one minute they were all laughing and teasing one another and the next they are planning an assassination and keeping one another in check.

If people who have known themselves for thousands of years can betray each other, what would you say about someone you didn\'t even know and only met like a few weeks ago and met on a mission at that.

This assassination mission was no different than breathing to them, it didn\'t even spark any emotion other than joy for the money that was about to come.

In this world, many people still don\'t fully trust those who are bound by mana contract with no loopholes.
