Chapter 624 - I Am Sorry, I Didn\'t Realize It

Warehouse Yard, Trinity.

Flame could be seen burning in this place from far away. One of the exits had been utterly destroyed a while ago. People were still wondering what the cause of the incident might be. But, the fire was soon brought under control by people of the Business Houses. It certainly was done very quickly, and the fire department didn\'t have any chance to move in for help.

Hence, the ruckus died down pretty soon.

It didn\'t cause any suspicion among any people as the place held a lot of valuable stuff, and it could go up to several digits. A fire in such a place was obviously devastating. So, it didn\'t come as much of a surprise for the people that had controlled the situation on their own this quickly.

"Find her at all costs! Spread around and search every nook and cranny! " Neo roared in anger. He really was pissed now. Not only did they allow her to cause such a big commotion, but even let escape after that.

"And you..." Neo turned his head to look at Anya standing there with a calm look on her face. "How could you just allow her to leave like that?!!"

"Calm down, it\'s not like she is getting away, is it?" Anya smiled as she looked at him. She seemed to be calm unlike him. "Not to mention, she is just at the early stage of the expert tier and heavily outnumbered. There is nothing that she could do."

"But-"

"Do you not understand what I say?" Anya\'s voice turned a bit icy.

Neo looked at her with a frown on his face, but didn\'t dare to go overboard with her. She wasn\'t someone he could offend. She was after all her father\'s lover, not his mother though.

Anya had been the one to infiltrate the Scarlet House, and get the artifact out. This was one of the reasons that Neo had been given a preference over the possession allowed to carry the artifact outside with him.

"Tell your people to be on the lookout, there is another person within this place who saved that girl. And, increase the guards around the jamming formation. We don\'t want them contacting any people outside."

Neo looked at her and nodded before informing his people about it??? .

On the other side…

Erina lifted her face which was all covered in dirt, two streams of blood had come down her nostrils. It was evident that the fall had hurt her.

"Who in hell-"

She was almost about to scream in anger when a hand came on her mouth, and another wrapped around her stomach as she was pulled behind one of the vehicles.

She obviously tried to struggle, but it soon died down when she heard footsteps accompanied with voices closing in her direction.

Those people were certainly looking for her.

The person holding her suddenly threw a cape over them and oddly everything outside was visible from inside. It was transparent. At least it appeared to be so from inside.

A moment later, the footsteps came to halt right in front of the car.

Erina couldn\'t help but gulp as the arms around her tightened. And, she was further pulled into the person\'s embrace.

"The sliding marks end right here. The two of them must not be far from here. Search around." A person spoke, and the next instant the footsteps could be heard dispersing all around the place.

Erina felt sweat sliding down her forehead when one of the men began to move towards them. He came circling around the car to see if anyone was around, and Erina\'s eyes met with his.

Her expression immediately darkened, and she was read to attack when the person behind further tightened his grip preventing her from moving. Erina had no idea what was going on. She honestly felt that there would be another clash, and a test of survival. But, for some reason, the man just continued to walk as if he had never seen her.

\'Could this be…\' Erina touched the transparent cloth and instantly realized what it was.

An Invisible Cloak.

A product which had suddenly started to trend after the recent competition and she knew someone who used it pretty well.

She immediately turned her head around to see who the person was and as expected. It was someone she was familiar with.

It was Axel.

\'\'Why are you here?\'\' She asked him with a complicated look on her face.

Axel still had that grim look on his face as he looked around trying to see if it was safe to move or not. As for her question, he just casually replied to it, "I am here to see you die."

"Are you sure you are doing the right thing then?" Erin gave him a stare.

"Sigh!" Axel shook his head, before speaking with a helpless expression on his face, "I am just too kind. I can\'t help it, god has made me like this."

Erina\'s face twitched as she looked at him. She couldn\'t understand why this guy could not speak straight with her.

"Hmmn?" Erina suddenly seemed to notice something as she looked below. And, her face immediately turned red.

"Y-You!! Where do you think you are touching?!" She immediately began to struggle, but it only worked to her disadvantage.

Axel suddenly seemed to realize it as well, and immediately released her grip around her.

"I am sorry, I didn\'t realize it." He apologized but his words really made Erina\'a face turn dark.

She couldn\'t help but grind her teeth in anger. This was literally an insult to her.

What did he mean he didn\'t realize it?!!

She had a well-developed figure!!!

Erina grabbed his collar and glared at him. The two were still tightly stuck to each other. If others were to look at the two, they would definitely think of them as two love birds. No one would think that the two were fighting.

"Come on, you don\'t need to be angry. A girl\'s appearance is not everything about her," Axel said in a righteous manner. He seemed to be truly being truthful, his expression showed that those were his heartfelt words.

But, Erina\'s face got darker on listening to it.

"You are on my side aren\'t you? Or do I take you as my enemy?" Erina asked in a threatening manner.

Axel could feel Erina\'s hand heating up. It would definitely burst into flames if the temperature kept rising. And, he definitely didn\'t want to run around naked in the cold night.

"Mam, please. We are on the same side. Let me be honest, my earlier words were all false. I was just too embarrassed to admit in front you. But, your size is the best, hell I love them. So, would you mind letting my collar go?" Axel looked at her with a forced smile.

That obviously didn\'t help Erina at all. But, it definitely made her aware that the two of them were on the same side.

In the end, she reluctantly let go of his collar.

Axel finally sighed in relief.

Erina suddenly lowered her head. With her body finally relaxing a bit after coming out of combat mode, she was beginning to feel tired.

Not to mention, the appearance of Anya had really shot up some major questions in her head. But, there was nothing she could do in her current situation. Hell, she even had to depend on someone else to save her ass.

"Why are you getting lost in thought? Hurry up, we will need time to find our way out." Axel urged her as he got up, and pulled Erina along with her as the two changed places frequently.

?Where the f*ck are you?!!?Axel messaged Wilson once again.

?Get some help!! The situation might be a bit too much for you to deal with!?He further warned him about it.

But, there was no response from the other side.

…..

In another part of the city..

An elderly woman could be seen walking into one of the abandoned factories through the empty streets of the district. This place would usually go silent after 7 in the evening as it was under reconstruction. And, the workers would usually stop their work around that time and pack to leave.

The elderly woman looked around the place in a suspicious manner. She looked like a thief from her behavior. But, that wasn\'t it. Her body suddenly began to change shape, and it turned into that of an extremely charming and beautiful woman.

This woman seemed to have a bit of resemblance to Lesia. She was like a mature version of her, and it was the truth.

She was indeed the Lady of the Barnes Family, Lesly Barnes.

As for Lesia Rex, it was her stage name when she used to perform. Lesia came from tweaking her first name a bit, and Rex had come from her maiden name Irex.

"Why did he call me to meet here at such a strange place?" She frowned looking around.

It definitely didn\'t look like a good place to hold a conversation.
