The Spirit Hunter System
Men's Promise!

"You really freaked me out, Mr. Adam."

Sitting in his chair, Andreas once again let out a long sigh. He then looked towards Adam who was sitting leisurely while holding his daughter's figure.

"Do you see the picture that my friends and I sent you, Mr Owl?"

The little girl tilted her head.

"Call me Uncle Adam."

"En! Uncle Adam!" The girl called obediently.

"Smart girl" said Adam with a smile on his face.

Unlike when dealing with adults, Adam seemed so gentle towards children. Not because he has any special taste or anything like that. But to the young man, the little ones were like white paper, still so clean. So he also faced them cleanly.

"Mr Adam?" call Andreas.

"Yes?"

"Please tell me, why do you want the Golden Dew information? Is Wings of Freedom—"

"I told you, Mr. Andreas. This has absolutely nothing to do with Wings of Freedom."

Andrew looked at Adam. Seeing Adam's serious gaze, the man finally nodded.

"Then .. please explain what you really mean. After all, Golden Dew was one of the Phantom Blade's precious sites. One of the main money-making places for us."

"So so ..."

Adam nodded. He finally came to his senses, it seemed that Andreas had initially misunderstood. That person thought himself wanting the Golden Dew, making the Phantom Blade decline and finally suppressing the group slowly.

"You should know that I'm a Cultivator right, Mr Andreas?"

"Yes ... or less."

Andreas nodded.

"Then, you must know what an evil Cultivator is, right?"

"..."

Andreas did not reply, but he nodded. Even if he had not met in person, he still clearly remembered the horror of Liz, the witch. Evil cultivators or such creatures ...

It is a dangerous thing and must be removed!

"I get the information that, it seems that the Phantom Blade is being close to a group of evil Cultivators."

"It's clearly slander!"

Andreas answered firmly. Even if they were dealing with murder cases and such, the people in the Phantom Blade obviously had nothing to do with the evil cultivators like Adam said.

As if reminding something, Andreas finally said.

"You mean ... Golden Dew?"

"Yes. That's why I need your help. I need detailed information about Golden Dew, even if I have to pay for it."

"..."

Andreas took a long breath. Looking at the serious expression on Adam's face, he finally said.

"You don't have to pay."

"You mean?"

"I told you once, right? I owe you. Although this information should be the secret of the Phantom Blade higher-ups, I know you will not divulge it. So let's just say it's my return.

So, with this we break even, right?"

"..."

"Of course, I will also keep your identity a secret."

Andreas smile.

The two looked at each other. Having a relieved expression on each other's faces, the two finally shook hands and said simultaneously.

"Agreed."

At that very instant, Adam suddenly said.

"Before we talk about it, you better take the sleeping princess back to her room, Mr. Andreas."

Adam smiled gently. Andreas' daughter, the little girl had somehow fallen asleep in Adam's arms. Perhaps it is because you feel comfortable and safe, or vice versa .. feel sleepy because you are tired of listening to the ravings of Adam and Andrew.

Taking his daughter with a smile on his face, Andreas said.

"This time I owe you."

Indeed, if not for the little girl, maybe the two of them had tried to kill each other just because of misunderstanding and the tense situation in City B.

After saying that, Andreas took the girl away.

A few moments later, the man returned. Sitting in his chair, he said.

"Drink first, let me tell you the information I know."

"You don't mix poison or laxatives in it, do you?" adam was half joking.

"So, actually the Golden Dew was not completely controlled by the Phantom Blade. More precisely, they are quite independent.

The Phantom Blade itself only lent a name, making them safe in evolving. The staff and all the people who work there have nothing to do with us.

You could say, we are just a deterrent. However, we get paid big enough each year to lend our names to them. So, the transactions that take place there are not entirely within our control.

In fact, after Mr. Ryuuji's warning, we tried to dig deeper about the illegal drugs that might be circulated in the Golden Dew. However, some of our personnel mysteriously disappeared.

After hearing from you that all of this has to do with evil cultivators, it seems that things have become more reasonable."

"..."

Listening to Andreas' words, Adam felt that something was a bit wrong. Upon realizing it, he stared at the man with a wry smile.

"It seems that this time I really work for free."

Adam's words made Andreas feel somewhat embarrassed.

"Actually—"

"Let's make a deal."

Adam suddenly interrupted. Gazing towards Andreas, he spoke seriously.

"Although only in name, Golden Dew still belonged to the Phantom Blade. So, if I and the Wings of Freedom were to attack him, it would be considered an unfriendly attack, even a battle signal.

So, I want you to tell the Chief and the Phantom Blade higher-ups. Let me and the Wings of Freedom take care of this matter, as well as help them to find and help the surviving members of the Phantom Blade in this case."

According to Andrew, Adam's advice was good. The problem was, those elders were too stubborn and very hard to tell. So he sighed.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Adam, it's hard to find a reason for them to agree."

"If it's .. I can give you a reason."

"En? Really true?"

"Yes. Just explain if there is a possibility that the evil Cultivator manipulated the Golden Dew. In addition, let's just say it's most likely that they are also circulating illegal drugs.

If they ask how you know, tell them that Adam told you.

Tell me that my girlfriend's friend is one of those dangerous members of the group. So, I tracked it down and finally found a clue in Golden Dew. Therefore, I asked permission to act."

"That's .. isn't that the original story?"

"Who says we have to make a lot of lies."

"If so, they must have suspected that you were a Cultivator. So, chances are your identity will be revealed."

"You don't have to worry about that." Adam smiled mysteriously. "They'll obviously find out, but when they get the information, they'll definitely dismiss the idea that I'm a Cultivator."

"Why?"

'Because they will know that I am a Cryomancer.'

Adam answered in his heart. Just smiling on the surface.

Andreas helplessly could only go back asking.

"Are you sure they'd agree?"

"certain."

"How can you?"

Adam shrugged with an indifferent expression.

"Because they have nothing to lose. If there was an enemy, they would not have to fight, even if they lost the Golden Dew, they would have nothing to lose because they would no longer lose any personnel.

Whereas if there are no enemies, they are more fortunate to have hired people for free, and still have the right to a Golden Dew that is still safe.

Either way, the Phantom Blade would no longer be injured. So, all equally lucky. That's why they don't refuse."

After a while, Andreas finally said.

"Yes .. that analysis must be correct."

Adam then looked towards Andreas and extended his hand.

"Then, do we agree, Mr Andreas?"

"Of course, we agreed."

Andrew shook Adam's hand.

After talking for a while, Adam finally decided to leave. But before leaving, the young man said with a smile on his face.

"As a man, don't break your promise, Mr. Andreas."

"I will not forget."

Andreas replied to Adam with a serious expression.

Thus, the plans of the two of them finally began.

>> Connect.
