Chapter 194: Operation Kingmaker Part 5

Kayn already knew the Runic symbol for Obscurity and Vigilance. So, he quickly started looking for it around the body of the Storage Ring instead of the Space Ore itself.

It couldn't be in Space Ore yet because such a thing was only invented after people discovered the method he is using right now. At that time, if one carves a straight line in the Runic symbol for Obscurity and Vigilance that is drawn onto the Space Ore, the entire Storage Ring would instantly be destroyed, thus making the method ultimately useless.

Fortunately for him, that only happened in the future.

It didn't take long for Kayn to discover the Runic symbol for Obscurity and Vigilance.

He put down the Storage Ring on the table and immediately took out a dagger from his Storage Ring. After locating the Runic symbol for Obscurity and Vigilance again, he carefully started carving a straight line in the middle of their symbol.

The instant one of the Runic symbols was destroyed, it sent a small spark that marked its destruction.

Seeing it, he quickly went ahead and carved a line on the last remaining Runic symbol.

"It's done," Kayn threw the Storage Ring to Jericho.

Jericho quickly caught it and went ahead to confirm whether Kayn's claim was true or not.

To Jericho's shock, he was able to instantly open Chief Kylo's Storage Ring and immediately saw the content inside.

"Clothes, extra sword, extra armor, food, potions, medicines, coins, some poison, stacks of documents, a leader token of the Assembly of Freedom, and toilet products," Jericho sneered at the last item. "I guess even the Chief of the great and powerful Assembly of Freedom also brings along toilet products in case of emergency,"

"Anyone does," Kayn took the Storage Ring from Jericho. "I guess this means that there's a good chance Chief Kylo is bringing the Kingmaker with him right now,"

"That is if he didn't leave it in his house," Jericho said jokingly.

"Let's hope for the best," Kayn returned the Storage Ring to its original place. Although he had destroyed both the Runic symbol for Obscurity and Vigilance, Chief Kylo would definitely not be able to notice the changes. "Let's go,"

Kayn and Jericho immediately left the room and made their way back to the security room.

Fortunately, there was no one inside when they got in. Nevertheless, they quickly returned the clothes they borrowed and swiftly jumped back in the air duct to make their way to the private warehouse.

They only have a bit of time left before the auction ends. And that's their only opportunity to steal the Kingmaker that Chief Kylo is carrying with him. Of course, that can only be possible if the latter really brought it with him.

Since they were rushing, it only took Kayn and Jericho two minutes to return back to the private warehouse. In total, they spent less than ten minutes.

Regardless, they didn't waste time as they left the private warehouse and made their way backstage.

The instant they were close to the backstage, they immediately slowed down their steps so that they won't raise any suspicion.

After looking around for a brief moment, they saw Gilbert and the others pushing a cart with the Forest Spirit Seed inside a container that is laid on top of a pillow.

The manager immediately saw them, but instead of questing where they went, he simply look away and return his attention to the stage.

"How long until our turn?" Kayn asked the manager.

"It will be brought out next," The manager responded respectfully.

Just like what the manager mentioned, as soon as the item before them was sold, the host immediately signaled them to bring out the Forest Spirit Seed. historical

Kayn and Jericho carefully pushed the cart to the side of the host.

While they were doing so, the host started speaking.

"Now, for the next item tonight! The famous and mystical item that people throughout the entire 'The Bridge' sought the most," The host pulled the cloth that's now covering the item. "A Forest Spirit Seed!"

A loud cheer immediately erupted the instant the Forest Spirit Seed was revealed to everyone.

While the audience was busy on the Forest Spirit Seed. On the other hand, Kayn's group focused on searching for Chief Kylo.

He obviously couldn't be with the masses, so they gave up on searching on the floor below and instead looked at the balcony of the VIP rooms.

It was impossible to see who is inside the VIP rooms, but there is a way to know who is inside, and that is by listening to their voice and sensing their aura inside. At least that's what the others would do.

However, in Kayn's case, he simply sent a signal to Natas and the latter flew up to check.

After surveying for a bit, Natas came back down and pointed the room to the very right.

Without any hesitation, Kayn sent a signal to Gilbert and the others who were waiting backstage.

Gilbert and the others understood the meaning of Kayn's signal and immediately left after informing the manager that they have to return to the private warehouse.

As usual, the manager didn't bother.

"I'll definitely give that manager a promotion once this is over," Jericho said in a remark.

"Nah, he is perfect in his position. Just give him a raise, that would do," Kayn suggested.

"You're right," Jericho agreed.

In the end, the Forest Spirit Seed was sold for fifteen million coins.

As soon as it was over, Kayn and Jericho pushed the cart backstage.

The manager quickly approached them and said, "Please follow me to deliver the item to room 20,"

Hearing that, Kayn and Jericho glimpse at each other.

"Alright," Kayn nodded.

Following the lead of the manager, Kayn and Jericho went up to the VIP floor.

They don't know where exactly Gilbert and the others currently are, but they are for sure doing something.

"You both stay here while I get inside to talk with the customer," The manager said before knocking on the door of the VIP room.

Kayn simply nodded his head.

The moment the manager got in and closed the door, the two immediately rush to the door of the VIP room with the number twenty-three.
