Arthur had only walked about 100 meters since exiting the complex and he knitted his brows, glancing back briefly.
"What's wrong?" asked Carla and Bella simultaneously.
Arthur didn't answer, but shook his head with a wry smile.
This was something he hadn't expected, the woman was following them.
"Let's go this way," he said, stepping into a narrow alley between two three-story buildings.
After arriving there, he jumped onto the wall of one of the buildings and then onto the wall of the other building.
He kept repeating the movement until he reached the top of the building.
Carla and Bella were dumbfounded and confused by his sudden movements.
They wanted to ask but Arthur was already too high above.
In the end, they looked at each other.
"I don't think it's that hard to do," Bella said.
"Can't you just use your wind power?" asked Carla.
"It's hard if it's too high, I'm afraid I'll lose control and fall." Bella shook her head.
"I'll give it a try," she added, taking a deep breath before jumping onto the wall Arthur had jumped off the first time.
Unfortunately, it was not as easy as she had imagined. She was able to jump high, but failed to jump off the wall.
"This is surprisingly difficult..." She finally marveled.
Carla rolled her eyes. Of course, she was more skilled than Bella because she exercised a lot, but she didn't think she could do that without practicing first.
Before she could do anything, wind suddenly enveloped her body.
She quickly looked at Bella who was also in the same condition. However, she did not see the woman releasing her magic power.
When she looked up, she discovered that the wind was coming from Arthur.
Whoosh!
The wind took them flying, taking only a few seconds before arriving at a height equivalent to the roof of the building.
Arthur pulled on each of their hands, a gesture that surprised them.
"Ohh..." Finally, they landed beside him.
However, Bella and Carla didn't care enough about that. They were more interested in the reason Arthur had suddenly gone to the top of this building.
Arthur gave a sign to leave immediately without telling them what the reason was.
He didn't plan on telling them either. Bella would probably feel awkward if she knew her mother was following then.
Shopia who was currently wearing jeans and a long coat stepped out hastily as she saw Arthur and the other two enter into an alley.
The alley was actually quite long, so she didn't think they would reach the other side in a short time.
Unfortunately, when she arrived at the front of the alley, she found no one inside. It was empty except for a few discarded boxes lying around.
"Where are they?" She wondered, starting to get confused.
She wanted to step into the alley, but suddenly a door in the alley opened.
A middle-aged man with a body full of tattoos came out of the door.
He was carrying a plastic bag which he then put into a trash can.
Shopia was a little worried when she saw him. As a homely woman, she was always wary of men who looked scary.
In the end, she canceled her intention to enter the alley.
"Or are they aware that I'm following and they then use their superpowers to avoid me?" Shopia was easily suspicious, so she immediately speculated. And this made her rather annoyed.
Realizing that her actions would be futile, she could only return to her villa.
Arthur, Carla, and Bella, went back down to the street after passing through some rooftops.
After that, Arthur led them to the road that led to the agarwood store.
Today, the store was closed because it was out of stock, but even when it was closed, there were still quite a few visitors.
Some came from other cities just to look and wait for the new products to arrive.
Of course, there were reporters from outside as well.
They kept looking for employees from the store to interview.
Arthur looked around the store, but found nothing unusual.
He didn't even find anyone who might be an agent.
The security in the store was naturally very tight.
In addition to several of Hunter's subordinates, he also saw several large men.
He guessed they were the subordinates the mercenaries had recruited because Arthur had previously ordered them to increase the strength in this city.
'I think it's too early before I meet a magus here,' Arthur thought.
RING!
Suddenly he received another phone call.
It was from Rose.
"What's wrong?" asked Arthur.
"Boss, someone has entered Vera," Rose replied.
"Who?"
"Do you remember, boss, the man at the auction that time, who said that his friend wanted to buy our sword?"
Of course, Arthur remembered because his soul was too strong to forget things.
"So he came, was it with his friend?"
"Yes, he's with someone, I'll send the video, right now they're just leaving the airport," Rose replied.
"I just found out your surveillance went that far," Arthur said.
"I'm just lucky, the airport defense system here is not that strong, so I can add my own system to it. The people whose photos are in my system will be tracked as long as they enter Vera airport." Rose explained.
"Only, they don't have our contacts, I'm not sure how they will contact us, will we take advantage of this to ambush them first?"
"No need to rush, just keep an eye on them first. You know, what if that person turns out to be very strong." Arthur was not afraid of anyone, but if somehow the enemy's level was equivalent to an Official Magus or Senior Knight, even he could not do anything without using his special ace.
After that, he opened the video that Rose sent.
"So an old man," he said.
It was indeed an old man, probably in his 70s. His hair was already white while his body was slightly hunched over.
However, that was only on the surface. Even just by looking at the video, Arthur could conclude that he was someone very strong.
He had a very sharp look in his eyes, like a tiger watching its prey.
His footsteps were very steady, giving the impression that he was used to walking next to a cliff.
