"It's you"
Rodes finally recognized Jason, he had seen this young man at the Auction Manager's office, he had seen this young man frown, he thought it was unusual but he looked just like a normal human so he didn't give much attention to him.
"Oh? Looks like Mr. Rodes recognized me, well nice to meet you once again, I am Jason Born. I already know who you are so no need to introduce yourself, but I do have some questions for you"
Rodes didn't know what to do, no matter how he looked at Jason he looked like a normal human, but he is not that foolish to believe it, how can a normal human have control over a hunter with a bloodline.
Rodes decided to play safe and answer Jason's questions.
"Ok then"
Rodes said as he looked at Jason, he wanted to figure out what Jason is, is he a hunter or something else.
"First question, where is your headquarters?"
Jason started off easily.
"In the country of Bajan, every state in Bajan has a headquarters. The underworld of the whole continent is situated there"
Jason was surprised by this.
'So Bajan is the biggest import and export of illegal goods'
"Tell me why are you after the Blue Silver?"
Jason asked
"Are you the one who stole it?"
Rodes asked dodging Jason's question, suddenly Ana kicked him in his stomach.
"You filthy dog, Master is the one who is asking the questions"
Ana said coldly.
Rodes gritted his teeth and cursed Ana inside.
"The underworld of Gaman is putting huge pressure on the underworld of South Cobia because of the stolen Blue Silver, the amount that was stolen can be said to cost more than the yearly financial rates of a whole country. They just used the dead in that ship as an excuse to put the government pressure as well, I was sent here to investigate and find the culprit and maybe retrieve the Blue Silvers back"
Jason thought about it for a second.
'The Blue Silver I have comes from Gaman continent, does it means Gaman is the main source of Blue Silver?'
"How are Blue Silvers made?"
Rodes frowned as he heard this question.
'Is he not the person behind the Blue Silver robbery, even if he is why would he ask such a stupid question, well I don't want to get kicked by that bitch again, let's just play along for now'
"Blue Silvers are naturally created in the depths of large mountains which is nutrition with an enormous amount of mana"
Rodes said as he looked at Jason's expression, but it was of no use, Jason didn't show any sign of surprised or understanding, he is keeping a poker face all the way.
'So Blue Silver cannot be manufactured? This is good then'
"Now, let's talk about the underworld, tell me everything you know about underworld"
Rodes hesitated, he cannot tell anything about the underworld or it would be like betraying her for good and he cannot afford that.
Seeing Rodes hesitate Jason started at Rodes, his iris's outer circle glowed red and Rodes fell into a trance for a second.
"Now tell me about the underworld"
Jason said once again but this time he said it like an order than a question.
Rodes nodded and started to tell everything he knows about the underworld.
"The underworld is a very large faction, it has all kinds of beings ruling it, there are humans who know about the existence of the supernatural, these humans are being constantly hunted down by the hunter organization, either to make them forcefully put them under their control or do experiments on them.
The underworld is run by mutants and supernatural beings, they command everything that happens in the whole continent.
Mutants who ran away from the organizations are also welcomed in the underworld, for mutants underworld is a paradise, they could do anything there, they aren't restrained to use their powers, and there is a very strict rule binding everyone from going into a frenzy killing streak.
The Underworld is the main way the big factions of the supernatural to transport goods and do business, by hiding from the human eyes.
The underworld is like a curtain separating the humans from the supernatural if the underworld crumbles the supernatural cannot be hidden forever.
As for who runs all this is her, the most beautiful woman in the world"
As Rodes start to talk about this woman, he became like a crazy fanboy again, seeing this Jason frowned.
Jason figured out that this woman is dangerous, by looking at Rodes, he knows he is under manipulation, just like how Ana is under his.
"Her na-"
As Rodes was about to speak her name, he started to choke, he suddenly started to vomit blood at an extreme rate.
Jason was startled by the sudden development, he looked at Ana.
"Did you poison him?"
"No master, I just hit him a little"
Jason turned back to look at Rodes and noticed that his eyes were filled with fear and regret, Jason realized that before a person dies they will come out of his manipulation and realize that they are going to die.
Rodes looked at Jason and soon his vision got bland and his lifeless body dropped down.
'Just before he was about to tell this woman's name he died, hahahahaha, now I am really interested in finding out who she is, too bad Rodes died, I could have used him to infiltrate the underworld, looks like I have to find someone else, and I still have more questions which are unanswered, like the woman he met the day before yesterday and the thing he received from her.'
Jason thought as he looked forward to meeting this woman.
