Chapter 289: Undying Oath

"My name is Dougeo Iref, Master. I came here under orders from my superior to take hostage of the academy with everyone else," the man Ning had just made his servant speak. 

He got onto his knees as he bowed in front of Ning, fully accepting him as his master.

"Take hostage of the Academy? You don't plan on killing anyone?" Ning asked. 

"We kill if we can't capture them. The superior asked that there should be no information about this takeover that gets out of this place. If we feel anything will hinder against that, we are ordered to kill."

Ning started to get suspicious about what was going on. Taking hostage of anything meant that the criminals wanted something in exchange. 

"What's the reason for the hostage? What does your superior want?"  Ning asked. Ning tried to think of anything one could get from this academy, but money and knowledge were the only 2 things he could come up with as a possible answer.
