The Moon Thief

Chapter 30: Lady's Request

Lady Yatenna kept her eyes on the young man before her for a moment, and then she asked, "Why are you so interested in this organization?"

"Actually, this organization is the reason I came to the Risingmoon Kingdom. I have been given a mission to research them."

"Oh? Who gave such a mission?"

"My boss." Heinald gave a quick reply, making it clear that he did not want to provide any further information, and she understood that she will not get ant more answers.

Hulan greeted him when he left the office.

"Thanks to you today, we have overcame a raid with the least possible damage. I want to thank you, if you are available, I would like to invite you to our mansion tonight. I will make prepared a magnificent feast for you, and my father will want to thank you specially."

"Sure! I'd be honored." He smiled lightly.

"Good! We'll be waiting for you after the sun goes down." Hulan nodded with a satisfied expression.

After leaving the City Guards' Headquarters, Heinald immediately went his home. He was very careful along the way. He always had to be careful and disguise his identity in the following days. In fact, it was a huge thing, he alone managed to damage an organization that had been tracked by dozens of families for years.

When he came to his house, he activated some low level defense formations that he learned through his previous researches and experiments,and then he slept. Although things did not go the way he wanted, he had ultimately made significant progress in his mission. He would tell Marcus about what happened tomorrow and ask him for new instructions.

He contacted Marcus Rinemoth first thing the next day and told him about the latest events, and Marcus said he was doing a good job and would contact him soon.

He spent the next hours of the day researching various plants, and when evening came he got ready and went to the Estrus Family mansion.

During his journey, he did not neglect to pay attention to his surroundings.

When he came in front of the mansion, he was greeted by the guard who greeted him last time, this time he was taken inside and accompanied by him without any interrogation.

"Welcome." When Hulan saw Heinald coming, he greeted him.

"Greetings." Heinad bowed his head slightly, after all, Hulan was a Level 2 Ansar.

"Come, let's move on to the main hall. When the feast is ready, we'll go to the dining room." Hulan pointed forward with his hand.

They crossed a long corridor together and came into the main hall. When Heinald entered the main hall, the first person he saw was a man with long white hair and a beard, and on the side Hanberd was sitting.

"Heinald, meet my father, Aenri Estrus." Hulan made a small gesture with his hand.

"Sir!" Heinald bowed his head and greeted the old man before him.

"Welcome, my young friend. I heard that we overcame the raid with so few casualties thanks to you. That's why I want to thank you very much." Aenri Estrus had a very loud voice for his age, although his hair and beard were white, his face and body looked quite vigorous.

"All I did was let your family know about the raid, sir. It's not a big deal..." Heinald shook his head.

"Do not say that. If the news of the raid had not been learned early, the size of our losses would have been enormous. I wonder where those bandits got such courage." A cold look appeared in Aenri's eyes.

When Heinald looked into Aenri's eyes, he felt as if a mountain had ridden on him, feeling great pressure even though no energy was emitted from the old man before him. He did not feel his aura either, but this old man was most likely Level 3 Ainsar or close to being.

That day, Heinald took a strong family on his side, which would no doubt be of great use to him in the future. After all, he had pissed Bloody Teeth and would need some help to deal them.

In fact, he thought he had done his duty well; if Marcus asked for more, he wouldn't do it. After all, according to his agreement, all he had to do was observe, and he had done it very well.

According to the information he got from Hulan, the headquarters of the organization was raided but nothing and no one was found. This was the result he expected, no one in that organization was stupid enough to go back there.

He began to spend his days in his home brewing potions and doing general research on formations, herbs, and spirits. Occasionally Ranton would come to see him and give him the latest news he heard.

Heinald's last days were quiet and uneventful.

On one of the quiet and uneventful days, his door knocked, and when he opened the door, he saw the last person he expected to see.

"Lord Marcus!" Heinald immediately bowed his head to greet him. "What are you doing here,sir?"

"I have some matters here. I learned your place from Albert and wanted to visit you." Marcus Rinemoth, as always, had a solemn expression.

Heinald immediately invited him inside.

"Has anything happened since the last time we talked?" Marcus asked.

"No, my last days have been quite calm. Bloody Teeth must have learned about my name and that I broke their plans. So I try not to hang around too much." Heinald exhaled loudly.

"Who knows you helped the Estrus Family?" Marcus asked.

"Almost everyone under the umbrella of the Estrus family and the City Guards. Moreover, the raiders probably noticed my identity. After all, they have been watching the family members for a long time, realizing that I am the only foreign face there. "

"Still, you did a good job. The balance of the organization was shaken, they will start to give more deficit. Moreover, I will stay here and follow the events closely." A cold gleam passed through Marcus' eyes.

******

Heinald sat for a while after Marcus left and pondered his future. He have fulfilled the requirements of the Blood Agreement. After all, the term of the deal for him were not to capture Hamra, it was Marcus' problem.

However, it bothered him to be under pressure, and while Bloody Teeth had not yet taken a move against him, it was mentally exhausting to constantly think about what they could do at any moment.

While planning to start making potions again, he knocked on his door again.

"Today, I'm pretty popular..." Heinald grinned. When he opened the door, he saw Lady Yetenna in front of him.

"My Lady ..." Heinald bowed his head and greeted him. Today the people he least expected were visiting him.

"Mr. Heinald, there is something I want to talk to you about."

"Of course, please come inside." Heinald promptly invited her in.

"You said you had knowledge of spirits, right?" Lady Yetenna asked.

"I am not an expert, but I guess I can still say I am knowledgeable." Heinald nodded.

"Do you know the Yearwind Forest?" Lady Yetenna had a serious expression.

Heinald nodded.

"There is an Imp I want to capture there, and I want you to help me. In return, I'll give you all the information we've got about Bloody Teeth."

"Are you looking for help on a personal matter?" Heinald was stunned.

"Yes." Lady Yetenna nodded.

"Can you tell us a little more about this Imp?" Heinald asked thoughtfully. Imps were a member of the fairy race, and didn't have a body. That's why they could be seen directly as 'Spirit'.

"Many ips live in the Yearwind Forest, but my target is the Chief of the Imps. Since itss an Imp, its already in pure spirit form. I want you to imprison it." said Lady Yetenna.

"The Spirit Imprisonment Formation I have is for human spirits. I don't know if I can imprison an Imp spirit. Moreover, in order to imprison it, it is necessary to neutralize it first."

"That's why I came to ask for your help." Lady Yatenna's voice harshed.

Then, let me do some research first.Once I know more about Imps I can give a clear answer to your offer." Heinald exhaled loudly.

"Of course. I'll wait for news from you." Lady Yetenna nodded.

After Lady Yetenna left, Heinald continued to brew potions. Recently he had brewed many potions, he had to go and sell them. He would also search for sources providing information about the Imps and buy them if he found them. He needed all the information he could get about Bloody Teeth, and he didn't want to miss this offer.

His Soul Imprisonment Formation included removing the spirit from the human body. If he was going to imprison an Imp it would not be necessary, but he was not sure if he could imprison an Imp by following the same steps.After all, an Imp belonged to a different race. Yet he was not hopeless, after all, spirit is spirit! The source of all souls was pure energy, so there could only be a difference in approach.

Moreover, how could a fairy be neutralized? He had used a poison to neutralize the innkeeper, but this time his target was a fairy. It did not have a physical body.

"Hopefully I can find a few sources that give good information about the Imps or the fairy race, so maybe I can figure out how to approach an Imp." Heinald sighed.
