Chapter 710: Concealed

[Planet Kurtulmak]

[Class M – savage planet level 3]

Emery glanced at the symbol on his hand that was currently showing the information of the planet he was at the moment. His eyes couldn't help but narrow a little when he saw the savage prefix attached to its title.

The settlement of the planet he teleported has about hundreds small wooden buildings and also hundreds of people. Some were humans, while some were hybrids. Emery could see within the wooden style settlements and among the figures seen, half of them were kobolds.

The kobolds are a hybrid with a humanoid figure, have skin like a lizard and head like a dragon They are mostly one head shorter than humans but all look sturdy and muscular. These kobolds were pack with weapons and armors, a few even brought magic staff as if they were preparing for hunting

Emery had seen the biography as well as some information about these people from the database of Magus Academy. But other than occasionally seeing some of their kind roaming around in Zodiac City, this is the first place he saw many gathered. It was fascinating, to say the least.

Different from the half-blood, the hybrids did not actually classified as human. They were actually the descendants of a powerful creature that had turned sentient and had human qualities.

The kobolds always said themselves to be descended from an ancient dragon itself. They were born with enhanced physical qualities and prowess, allowing them to thrive in savage planets where danger lurks in every corner. Unfortunately, their short stature and mischievous personality make their name considered as part of the serpent bloodline instead.

Either way, Emery was just glad that there were also other human figures among them. Hence when one of the half-blood warriors saw him coming out of the portal, not only was he not recognized by the other party, he was also not being treated suspiciously.

Happy that the first stage of infiltration went without a hitch, Emery calmly walked through the street of the settlement and began using his spirit reading to scour his surroundings.

A few moments later, Emery discovered that there were around a hundred people in this settlement who had similar cultivation with his rank 8. There were even dozens of saint level warriors strolling around. This congregation of figures practically made Emery's existence inconspicuous.

As for the task of finding Magus Leon and the others' whereabouts turned out to be not that difficult. Even though there were a few magus figures perceived around the town, a spot where a bunch of them gathered together was quite easy to find.

Emery continued to walk in a casual manner, as he sneakily made his way to their location while making sure to keep his distance so that he would not appear suspicious to them. Thanks to that same reason, he decided to enter and stop at a few buildings to act as if he was looking around. He also didn't forget to interact with people to make his disguise look more foolproof.

It took Emery just a few minutes of exploring for him to realize that this settlement and the area around it was a common site to find mid level quests and hunt mid level creatures. It was just like Planet 14722 where he hunted for the Caracas flowers with his friends, but instead of danger level 1, this planet was a more dangerous level 3.

Utilizing his spirit reading, Emery got closer to where Magus Leon and co had gathered. His presence was even noticed by the bloodline warriors that secure the perimeter, but thanks to his unfamiliar face, he only got a few scrutinizing looks before being left alone.

He continued to walk until his spirit reading clearly perceived where the group was. Apparently, the magus group was currently inside one of the largest buildings in the settlement and one that he knew very well.

It was the building of the Magus Guild. Its appearance was similar to the one he visited at Golden City in the past, only much smaller and hence looked less grandiose.

[Kurtulmak – Magus Guild]

Realizing that standing outside of the guild would only do nothing but arouse suspicion, Emery decided to enter the building. Of course, he did it carefully to make sure not to give himself away.

Through spirit reading and brief observation of the interior of Magus Guild's building, it seemed Magus Leon's group was gathering in a private room located at the end of the hall, while Emery quickly took a seat on the other end.

Entering the building was a risky move, of course. But Emery had to make sure that he would not be recognized nor discovered by the other side before the mission started, or else everything would be much more troublesome later. This plan of his might even endanger others, hence he needed to be sure.

If Magus Leon or the others had somehow discovered him, then he would confront them and be open about his situation. If the result between them was not satisfactory, then he would immediately leave and not bother himself with the mission again.

If he could get away with the spying he currently did though, he might actually be able to do something significant later from the shadow. Emery had also prepared other things, but now he had to verify that his wolf innate skill would be sufficient for this undercover.

Time passed on, and Emery continued watching the group from afar, sneakily of course. They seemed to be waiting for something. He was eavesdropping their conversation with his senses, but of them were talking about the mission. Well, this was to be expected; they are a special enforcer team, after all.

At this moment, someone in the group suddenly turned their head towards him. It wasn't Magus Leon nor the other enforcer, but it was the half-blood tiger Magus Nameria. Their eyes stared into each other, and she immediately stood from her seat and walked towards his table.

"What are you doing here?!" She snapped.

Inwardly, Emery was shocked. For a moment, he wondered if his cover was blown so quickly before he quickly shook that speculation away. He tried to calm himself and thought of the best response a stranger would give in this situation.

"Ah.. I… I…"

Stuttering should be the best response when one is suddenly being confronted by such fierceness.

"I-I… just came here for a quest, senior. I apologize if I offended you."

The female half-blood suddenly moved her body closer and started sniffing on him. Inwardly, Emery was nervous. She was, after all, someone who held Tiger Bloodline; her sense of smell should be no less inferior to that of a wolf.

"Huh… you have a familiar scent.." said Magus Nameria as she continued to sniff around. "Huh…"

It was at this moment that Emery was glad that Klea was such a thorough person. The girl did not forget to spray him with some kind of scent before he left, hence the other party should have not recognized him.

However, it seemed Magus Nameria's suspicion hadn't completely disappeared.

"What quest are you here for? A rank 8 like you came to this place for a quest, by yourself?!!"

For a moment, Emery was at a loss for words. This magus was apparently not easy to fool, contrary to her appearance.

"No, senior. Of course not. I'm not alone for the quest. In fact, I am waiting for my friend" said Emery with a smile.

When he thought that this was enough to satisfy the magus and send her away, she kept going against expectation and bringing surprise to the table.

"Is that so? Alright! I have time, let us wait together for your friend!"

The situation became awkward for Emery. His shapeshifting ability and Klea's earlier precaution was enough to fool her, but he was just not eloquent enough to talk his way out of this. Not knowing what he should do and afraid that his cover would be blown, Emery eventually nodded his head in agreement.

It had been half an hour since the tiger half-blood magus confronted Emery, and the two had been sitting together ever since. All this time Emery had been trying to look calm and now he noticed that she finally seemed to have lost her patience.

Just as she was about to stand up and interrogate Emery one more time, suddenly a female voice was heard behind her.

"I'm so sorry! Have you waited long? Let's get the quest now!"

Immediately, Magus Nameria turned around to see who it was. On the other hand, Emery gave his all to suppress the shock that threatened to spill all over his face. He was so shocked because the person who came was someone very unexpected. 

A young woman with long red hair that cascades down to her hips; the disciple of Grand Magus Zenonia, Annara Vermont.

"How… why is she here?" He thought
