Versatile System Online-Chapter 244 The One Controlling The Kent Family From The Shadows
"Ughh!" Groaned Sirius in pain. Opening his eyes, he saw the blurry sight of himself being dragged along the ground. The world before him was going further and further away from him as he felt himself tumble over the rocks on the concrete floor.
Looking besides him, he saw another person being dragged. However, compared to him, the other person was in a much worse condition. The person's whole body was mangled up while his chest was caved in slightly.
"Thankfully," Sirius sighed in relief. His heart was now at peace, knowing that the assassin was captured. Him giving the last blow wasn't a dream.
As his body calmed, the adrenaline was fully out of his system as the pangs of pain finally hit.
"That was quite hectic of me. Well, it was worth it," Thought Sirius. His mind went back to the moment he used the blood sacrifice and used a small amount of his bloodline essence to momentarily increase his strength.
Sirius's thoughts became fuzzy as exhaustion fully caught up to him. His vision blurred and he fainted yet again.
On the other hand,
Ray continued on running as he hurried back to the core of infirmary. He had to hand Sirius to the head nurse and as for the assassin, Ray was going to chain the person, suppress his powers and then interrogate him later along with Sirius and the others.
"Ray. What about him?" Aurora's slightly worried voice sounded.
"That's something to deal with as well," Ray answered back. His mind went back to the moment he was rushing to aid Sirius and the rest.
While he was crossing one of the hallways, he noticed a team member walking along the hallways like a mindless soul. The team member's face was devoid of any expression and he looked no less than a zombie.
Deciding to further investigate the matter, Ray halted by the person. His presence was kept to minimum as he tailed the person. After following him for some time, Ray realized that the person was under some sort of influence or mind control. ƒr𝙚𝙚𝘸e𝚋𝐧૦ѵ𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝒐m
Finding the whole matter interesting, Ray decided to capture the person and interrogate him later.
He knocked him out and put him into an induced coma and hid him near a hallway.
Right now, Aurora had just reminded Ray to pick that person as well.
"Tim," Ray called, "Take Sirius along with you and head for the head nurse's office. I have some matters to tend to and for that, I will have to make a slight detour," Ray handed Sirius, looked at Aella and Tim and then disappeared.
Tim sighed and put Sirius over his shoulder. He, along with the others started to head back.
On the other hand,
Ray appeared around one of the hallways. Walking to a slightly tilted wall, he traced his hand around the wall and felt a small protrusion in it.
His face lit up and he applied some force on to the wall.
"Crackkk," The wall opened up, revealing a small space in which a person was crammed within.
"You are coming with me," Ray smiled and pulled the person out of the wall and turned to head back.
As Ray disappeared into the hallways, a silhouette flashed by and clicked its tongue. It's plan had been interrupted by Ray and now it had to make certain preparation for it not be foiled.
The silhouette was naturally Hailey's as right now, she was dressed completely different from before. Due to her powers being illusion and mind control, she had to supplement her strength with the help of certain items or clothing in her case.
Right now, she wore skimpy clothes that revealed a lot of her skin. He skin was as clear as snow with not a single blemish present on it.
She pouted slightly and crossed her hands over her chest, prompting her vivacious chest to bounce slightly as a huge amount of cleavage was shown.
"Sighh… such a waste. He could have been a good vessel for me to use," She murmured. Lifting her legs, an air blew by as she disappeared from her position.
Meanwhile,
Ray had reached the head nurse's office with the assassin and the other guy in his hand. He looked at the slightly open door and peeked inside.
Within the office, he saw the head nurse using her powers to treat Sirius. Walking in, he stood aside and waited for the head nurse to finish her treatment first.
With small particles of energy dancing around her hand, the head nurse examined Sirius's body and the wounds all over him.
"He will have to rest for a day and will be needing some too quality beast meat to heal back to his top condition," She spoke and pulled her hands away.
"Don't worry. I will personally find some good stuff for him," Ray walked up to the head nurse and spoke. While he did so, he threw the assassin on the ground and pointed at him,
"This is the assassin. If possible, please examine him and find a way to cure Emma," He said politely. After all, even if he was given the authority over the head nurse, he still had to be careful of her status as a Celestial Realm expert.
Also, for Ray; being polite and humble was the key to make more allies right now.
"Okay, I will try," The head nurse nodded with a slight smile on her face. In all honesty, she appreciated the dean's choice and had also started favoring Ray. After all, he wasn't arrogant like the others, he had considerable power and was clever enough to know where to use his power and authority and where to use his brain by being diplomatic.
"What about the other guy?" Aliya had just come out after treating another injured person when she noticed another guy laying besides Ray's feet.
"Oh… him," Ray pointed at the guy and said, "Well, I found him wandering in the hallway. He was in the team but the condition I found him in was very interesting, so I decided to bring him along and interrogate him as well,"
"Hmmm…Okay," Aliya nodded and then walked to Sirius to have a look at him.
With his job done, Ray turned around and walked to the door. Remembering something, he turned back and said to the head nurse, "Lets call a meeting. Let's tell them that we have captured the assassin. It's time we made everyone aware of our real strength," Saying that, he walked out of the office with a mysterious smile on his face.
Within a small room,
Hailey sat on a chair, her face was slightly tilted as she rested it on her palm. In front of her was small holographic device as she seemed to be waiting for someone.
The device whizzed as the figure of a woman appeared in front of her. The woman's facial features matched quite a lot with Hailey's and the only difference being that the woman looked older than Hailey and had a much more mature vibe to her.
Not only that, but the crown on the woman's head suggested that her position wasn't to be underestimated.
"Mom, one of the experts you sent had been captured," she reported and explained the whole matter in detail. However, she omitted a few parts that were due to her mistakes and out the blame on others.
After all, only Hailey knew her mother's anger as she was the head of the Kent Family. She was the one running the whole family from behind as Hailey's father, the current patriarch was just for show as all the previous patriarchs were. The Kent family was secretly run by the women of the family and right now, Hailey was the heiress for the position of the next head.
"Don't worry. There are more experts in the academy. Right now, they are all hidden and would only move on my command. You just do what I have told you. Make sure that no one suspects you," Said Hailey's mother.
Her cold and aloof countenance suddenly changed as a playful smile appeared on her face. She looked at Hailey and spoke, "You seem to have used your ability after all. Now tell me, whom did you use it on? Which heir did you slide into your bed along with you?" Asked her mother.
"Mom, I haven't yet. I do have planned to pull the heir of Blake family but he seems a bit strange. So I am thinking of a plan," Answered Hailey. She dared not to say that she used her ability to control a bunch of commoners and lower nobles.
She was sure that if her mother got to know of that, she would really punish her to the extreme for showing her "Pure" body to some lower people and pulling them in instead of someone of higher importance.
"Good… good. Now I have to go, you do what I have told you to," She said and cut the call as Hailey sighed in relief. Her mother's pressure was really something else.
