Divine Evolution: Primordial of Imagination-Chapter 37: Investigation [2]
"yuck, this place stinks" Lenny yawned, he was strapped to a chair, chained by the Fallen Regulators of Buijun Guild.
Locked in a dirty cell which had little to no ventilation.
They treated him with animosity.
But Lenny wasn’t angered by this treatment, All Guilds were vassals of the Great Houses.
Although Lenny had no idea what Great House, this Guild served but he understood they wouldn’t be kind to him.
Even if they weren’t able to kill him.
They would surely try to make his life as hard as possible, Lenny breathed in deeply "How long has it been?" He whispered.
Slowly opening his deep cerulean eyes, his gaze pierced through the darkness.
He saw everything clearly.
He lingered for a moment, "Since they haven’t come for me yet, it means they haven’t finalized the investigation"
"But whatever they find, it won’t be incriminating since I wasn’t the one who killed them" Lenny chuckled.
He kept his loots a secret.
Fallen Regulators were unable to access eachother’s dimension storage unless granted permission.
Lenny summoned his status window.
He sighed softly "I accumulated over three hundred SP as a result of the countless deaths"
"And I’ve already maxed out my evolution, both my Initial stage, middle-stage and peak stage have been filled"
"I’m in a stage, ready to evolve into a Rank 2 Fallen Regulator" His lips curled into a dark grin.
"I’ll need to return back to Earth to evolve into a Rank 2 Fallen Regulator, my body must be exposed to the two realms"
"That’s the natural ritual of the Fallen System" Lenny still had a few sp remaining.
Which he used to increase his stats.
Maxing out his stats as well.
While everyone died in the Labyrinth of Ashura, he was the only one who reaped the highest benefits.
An evolutionary ticket straight to Rank 2.
Ignoring the difficulties of staying as a Rank 1 Fallen Regulator, the lowest of ranks in the Regulator’s society.
**
Lenny stayed still for some minutes, he softly exhaled when the metallic door of the cell clanged open.
Three figures emerged into the scene, all clad in their armors.
None lower than a grade 2 Fallen Relic.
Lenny accessed them, "Two Rank 1 Fallen Regulators, and one Rank 2 Fallen Regulator" He sighed.
"Would this be enough to execute me?" Lenny curiously asked.
The Rank 2 Fallen Regulator chuckled as he took a step forward "Execute you?" He asked.
Both entities locked eyes with eachother.
There was eerie silence in the air which reigned for a few minutes before the Rank 2 Fallen Regulator continued "We have completed our investigations"
"You will be released back to Earth since we found nothing incriminating, we have no rights to keep you locked up" The Rank 2 Fallen Regulator explained.
Lenny nodded with a smile "Why would there be?" He asked, "I didn’t kill them, that’s the truth"
The two Rank 1 Fallen Regulators glared at Lenny but none spoke, after all.....
Lenny is currently talking to their Rank 2 Fallen Regulator.
A superior in ranks and position in the Buijun Guild.
The Rank 2 Fallen Regulator sighed with a smile "Well that’s true I guess, but you are banned from anchoring yourself to the Telvian Sanctuary"
"There will be no connection between you and the Buijun Guild, every record of your presence here will be erased"
"But we will not be enemies with you" The Rank 2 Fallen Regulator stated.
Lenny remained silent, seeing his reluctance to speak.
The Rank 2 Fallen Regulator continued "And finally you’ll be summoned to the Regulator’s Association headquarters for questioning"
Lenny raised an eyebrow "The Association huh?" He sighed, "Would it be in their Great Sanctuary or their headquarters on Earth?" He asked.
The Rank 2 Fallen Regulator shrugged "Don’t know, when you get to Earth....you will know"
Lenny nodded "I guess so, then am I free to leave?" He asked.
The Rank 2 Fallen Regulator grinned "Sure, but you’ll need to wait until sunset before we release the chains" He answered.
Lenny’s lips curled up faintly "I thought as much, there’s no need for waiting....I’ll be quick" Lenny said.
The Rank 2 Fallen Regulator raised an eyebrow "What are you talking ab...." Before he could complete his statement.
The sounds of chains breaking and rattling echoed through the cell, they were all startled.
Mesmerized by what they were watching.
The chains used to bind Lenny may not be a Fallen Relic but it’s tenacity was amplified by a Sorcerer.
Yet Lenny broke them so easily.
Lenny had already prepared contingency plans in case Buijun Guild decided to kill him secretly.
He is a descendant of the infamous and terrifying Great House Night.
How would he let himself be killed easily by a lesser Guild like Buijun?
He had already amplified his physique using a Rune of Body Reconstruction. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
If there were no Rank 3 Fallen Regulator hidden, with his strategic escape plans ready.
He saw no one capable of stopping him.
But now, all he needed to do was break the amplified chains and he did so with ease.
Lenny let out a satisfactory smile, he loved the shock written on their faces.
"I’ll get going then" He chuckled.
Before the Rank 2 Fallen Regulator could utter any word, Lenny was gone.
He had returned back to Earth.
He wasn’t able to leave before, and that was because he wasn’t permitted to leave.
If he must escape, he had to murder the one currently in charge of supervising the Telvian Sanctuary.
But he had no reason to do that anymore.
***
Lenny opened his eyes to see himself back in his apartment, he heaved in relief.
Lenny slowly opened the window blind, Amsterdale City stretched out before his eyes.
His lips curled once again "The ritual is complete, I’m already a Rank 2 Fallen Regulator" He chuckled.
"But they don’t need to know that...."
"For now, the truth must be I’m still a Rank 1 Fallen Regulator"
"I need to remain underestimated if I must strike my enemies down with ease" His eyebrows furrowed as he slightly tilt his head.
"Isn’t that right? Brother" He questioned.
Standing behind him with his arms folded was none other than the young boy whose name is Corinthian.
Corinthian had returned back to him.
