Chapter 319 Irritation
He and his organization had been thinking of it lately, but they still could not point out a hint of their identity. No matter how far and deep Velfast investigated, he could not find a hint. ((Kolben.))
"—?!" As he was in deep thought, a man\'s voice suddenly rang out in his mind. He was thinking so deeply that the voice actually surprised him a bit.
Nevertheless, Kolben immediately recomposed himself, crossed his arms, and answered the Telepathy call, as the person he was talking to was someone above him, a person who he had been obliged to follow. The Five Headed Hydra was actually not the whole organization itself; the syndicate was just a fraction of a bigger entity. In this world, Hydra was not the most powerful monster. There was always the bigger fish, thereby labeling the syndicate as inferior. ((What do you want this time?)) As if annoyed, Kolben responded to the caller with irritation in his tone. Even though he was a lot bigger than him, for some reasons, Kolben truly despised the man, and he was not afraid of portraying his hatred toward him. ((Ku ku. I heard that the Five Headed Hydra had suffered a drastic loss in the Kingdom of Astley, so you must be frustrated right now.))
((Don\'t try to mock me. I\'m quite busy; state your business this instant.)) Due to the consecutive failures, the activities of the Five Headed Hydra had lessened terribly. Even though Sabrina had come back, Kolben could not find the right people to appoint as the new head of the black market division, which was momentarily being managed by Sabrina. All of the upper echelons of the organization were in desperation. Despite all of that, there was no help from the higher-ups. That was one of the things Kolben had been pissing off. ((Alright, hear me out. I got a new mission for you.))
((Really, at this time? I have been carrying this burden of a syndicate for a decade as your order, and now you want to do another mission for you? This syndicate has been facing problems, and I have no hands for your demands.))
((Don\'t worry, Kolben. It\'s something related to your revenge.))
((...))
As soon as the man mentioned that word, Kolben was rendered silent for several seconds. Personally, he really did not want to manage the Five Headed Hydra, as he was only focused on one thing: revenge. He sought vengeance from the ones who killed the person he loved and cared about the most. But the man told him to forget about it, as it was a foolish idea. The reason why he despised the man was that Kolben thought that he let that person die.
((Ho ho. Not interested in it?)) ((Tell me more about it.)) ((Very well. You know that we had given the crown prince of Astley those crystals, yes?))
((Yeah, I know.)) ((Apparently, out of desperation, he used them during the revolution and got a massive boost for himself. Since he was basically borrowing my powers, I could see what he was seeing during that time.)) The crystals that Richard used actually contained a fraction of the man\'s powers. For that reason, the man was able to connect his powers and use them as a link to gain access to his vision. In layman\'s terms, it was a hacker creating a public WiFi hotspot to breach the connected devices. ((I saw him fighting and witnessed his humiliation. He was so pitiful that time, but amusing to watch. But suddenly, I lost connection with him. I find it strange since cutting that connection could not be that easy.)) ((So what do you want me to do?)) ((Kolben, I want you to investigate his opponent, Raphael Raevender.)) n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
