Harem of the final villain in an ERO MMO!!! I just need to survive
Chapter 79 79: Making Alice Trust Him [Pt1]Since Keith had no idea how to utilize his mana, he was back to square one for him. But this time, he had a plan on how to get better.
The first thing he needed to do was to find someone in history who had a constitution like his own and could not feel mana properly. He was sure that he would be able to find someone if he looked around.
So, the first stop Keith had not *not* the library or the archives, but the hospital.
Since mana was such an integral part of this MMO world, anyone who could not sense mana was considered odd and infected. It was considered a disease almost.
And Keith was going to do something incredibly risky and foolish. He was going to break into the hospital records and steal some records they had lying around.
It was pathetic how frugal the security at the hospital was and how easily Keith managed to sneak into the record room. It was all digital and Keith had an easy time breaking in due to his mediocre hacking skills.
Soon, he found the files he was looking for but there was not a lot he had to work with. Most of the people with a similar constitution to Keith were either dead or did not care enough to even register for higher treatment.
'Hmm, so this is what I must work it. I have to say that the outcome is far better than I expected.'
In the end, Keith did manage to find two entries that he liked. It was a pair of twins, both female and a little older than Keith.
They had miraculously found a way to recover from their mana insensitivity and were now on the road to recovery. They were also in the town right now and would be staying here for some time.
It was time for Keith to go and visit them.
Keith was warping up his research when he heard footsteps heading his way. It seemed like he had overstayed his welcome here and he needed to get going now.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Hey, who is there? Hurry up and show yourself. I can hear you."
The guard finally came around to patrolling and Keith hid. The lax of security had told him a thing or two about this place.
The guard would likely not look around too hard since he was a lazy bum and could not care less.
"Huh? Looks like I was mistaken. There is no one here after all."
The guard finally went away and Keith quickly came out of his hiding spot. Once he was sure everything had calmed down, Keith was quickly able to come out of his hiding spot and decided to head out.
He had gotten the address of those twins from the medical file and he was sure they had some hidden power that allowed them to sense the mana again.
Their residence was not too far away from the hospital and Keith decided to rip the bandage off. He knocked on their door and it opened. The elder sister of the twins opened the door and she looked startled to see Keith.
"What do you want? Whatever you are selling, I do not want to buy it. So don't waste your time and go back to where you came from."
Alex yelled at Keith, knowing fully well what people like him came here for. Her eyes were filled with suspicion as she looked at Keith.
Keith tried to appear as harmless as he could but Alex did not look reassured even with his best look.
"I am not here to sell you something, but to offer you something. My lady, won't you allow me to come in so that we can talk about our difference over tea? I am sure you will not be able to refute my offer once you hear it."
Be it money or fame, Keith had it all. He was able to offer these people whatever they wanted from him.
Alex looked even more suspicious than before as she heard Keith's offer. Keith tried not to show that he was bothered by Alex's suspicion.
"You want to offer me something? As if that does not sound suspicious at all. Sorry, but I cannot allow you to come in."
For the first time since Keith had become the grandmaster, he had a door closed on his face with a harsh bang.
Alex had not been gentle and Keith was not surprised to see other people gathering outside to see what was happening.
'Well, this was a burst. So maybe going for a home visit was a little too much. I will need to find another way to get these two to open to me. Hmm, let us see.'
Keith remembered that these two sisters were registered as hunters in the nearby guild branch. So, Keith had a brilliant idea that would benefit him in two ways.
He was going to join the mission with Alice, the younger sister was going on, and then form a friendship with her. Then he would be able to ask her for a favor.
...…..
Getting a recommendation and being put on a team mission was not difficult at all for Keith. He just had to pull some strings and do background work and he was in.
The guild member in charge of managing the records did not even feel anything amiss as he checked over Keith's information.
"Yup, everything is good and ready to go. I will put you on the team that you wanted me to. Just wait for a second and it will be done."
The in-charge assured Keith as he walked around and did some stuff. Soon, Keith was given an identity bracelet that marked him as a rookie on his first job.
"Look man, I don't know how you get Master Shinzou to give you a referral but you are amazing. I don't know why you want to be put on the rookie team, but I'll help you out."
Keith took the pass without any hesitation and held it in front of him. It shined golden, like a new opportunity Keith knew he was about to get.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Hmm, I have my reasons for wanting to join the rookie team, and let's just say, they are personal. There is someone I want to make friends with and this is the only way. I hope you understand what I am saying."
The counter worker took Keith's words in good spirits. He laughed out loud at them, slapping Keith's back in a show of support.
"I get you. The heart wants what it wants after all. In this case, I will wish you the best of luck. Your team is going to gather in front of the dungeon in half an hour."
Keith nodded back to the counter worker as he left the room.
Half an hour was enough for him to look around the area and study his team. Alice was the only twin coming out today so Keith knew he needed to make a good impression.
He was the second one to arrive at the scene and made sure his disguise was not ruined in any way.
Soon, his target- he meant, Alice and the other members of his team arrived as well they all looked scared. Most of them were rookies and had their first mission today.
"Sorry, I am late. I am your team leader and my name is Alice. You all should listen to me if you want to live past today."
Alice warned and made the bystanders even more scared. Keith could see the error in the way Alice was leading and knew she would be in trouble at this rate.
But he decided not to interfere. He would save Alice when she was in danger and make him trust Keith this way. It was not evil if it was survival.
"Umm, is it really dangerous in the dungeon? Will we never come back? I cannot have that. I have a dependent family and I am the only breadwinner."
The poor girl in their group (the only one except Alice) looked scared out of her mind. She was also young, a little too young, to be here and Keith knew she was sent here to be a sacrifice.
'Poor girl. She does not know what is going on with her but she is likely going to die in the dungeon.'
The teenager did not have the right mindset to survive in a harsh environment. She had also likely come here to earn easy money.
Alice seemed to have come to a similar realization but she was compassionate with the girl and put one of her hands on the poor freaked out girl's shoulder.
"Don't worry so much. Everything is going to be alright now that I am the team leader. I will not let you die."
That was a hollow promise since a dungeon was an unpredictable space and death can happen anytime. But Keith did not burst the child's imaginary bubble and let her be.
