Chapter Text
Seb: “Looks like the coast is clear. There are no hostiles on sight.” Seb put down the binoculars.
Hajime: “Really? That is good. I am almost done scanning the whole mountain with Persephone’s scanners. Meta?” As Hajime was done checking in with his holotab.
Meta was holding the staff and standing still and taking deep breaths while eyes closed
To both Sebastian and Hajime, he was scanning the whole Mountain of Himalayas with his abilities alone.
Meta sighed as he took a breath. "Alright. There are few bozos found Northeast here." He throw it mid-air only to catch it mid-way before tapping it back to the ground.
Seb took out his sniper rifle. "What type of hostiles are we talking about?" Meta scratched his head.
Meta: "A few riot mechs and a wave of lower ranked honkai zombies."
Seb scoffed. "Please. I don't know why you are concerned. Let me take them out. Just guide me through it."
Meta smirked. "You better not miss or someone will be taking the kill."
Seb rolled his eyes with a smile before looking at Hajime. "Mind helping me mark my targets with Aillie?"
Hajime typed in a few inputs. "Already working on it right now."
Hajime displayed Aillie as a small ELF Hologram. "Aillie? Do your magic and make sure that you mark the targets through Seb's Sniper rifle scope."
Aillie: "On it, boss...... Marking the hostiles now....... Providing coordinates........ That should give Seb a good idea on where they are right now. Up to you, Seb."
Seb looked at his displayed holomap and followed it with his eyes.
He checked it with his scope and the targets were found in his crosshairs.
"Thank you so much, Aillie." As Seb set up his sniper rifle in a matter of seconds.
Both Hajime and Meta were also sharpshooters but they knew that the Captain Sebastian Redgrave was the best sniper among the three of them.
And they both know he has their backs.
Seb nodded as he loaded his weapon with the general explosive bullets.
Seb took deep breaths. "This shouldnt take a while."
BANG!
BANG!
BOOM!
POW!
Multiple shots were fired.
Bullet casings were flown off from the rifle.
Hajime checked with his binoculars and all disintegrated from one shot each.
Seb: "That should ease them off our backs. But knowing how bad things could get, i wouldnt get my hopes up for this." He stood up as soon as he saw Hajime gave a thumbs up that his targets were down.
Meta shrugged it off. "It is fine. Even recasting are temporary. There are no certainty to this script. We just follow along on how things goes."
Hajime nodded. "Ditto." Hajime tightened his gloves. "Is everybody ready to move out?"
Seb teleported his sniper rifle back and holstered his pistol on the left while hid the knife on the right.
He put on his trench coat and adjusted his ankle high boots as he hid most of his backup displosables in there. He also has a few hidden in his thigh pockets.
He tested the manueverability of his exosuit by stretching out his shoulders and made a clockwise motions. "You two might want to give me time to catch up considering that this is my first time wearing a combat skin-tight exosuit."
Meta chuckled as he twirled his ringmaster staff and held the rim of his hat. He was wearing a retro steampunk tailcoat jacket with a black undershirt like. He was also wearing a black silk pants with loose suspenders.
Hajime chuckled as he watched Seb strapped on his boots and made himself ready.
Hajime: "Alright. Let's see what is the temple got in store for us."
As he loaded both of his Lightning Bows of Odysseus to his holster that was strapped to his back after adjusting his black and white trench coat with a few crystal slots embroidered to the edge of his coats.He also inserted Elysia's pink crystals to his multipurpose boots and to his collar.
His pants were beginning to detecting increased of body temperature which caused the already glowing crystals of his black and maroon pants to quickly adjust from the heat he was emitting.
The rest nodded and they all walked through the snowy mountain.
After a few minutes of trekking, Meta stopped walking, signalling both Hajime and Seb to stop.
Seb: "What's wrong?"
Meta: "We have incoming."
Seb: "Is it a honkai wave?" As Seb loaded the magazine of his pistols and Hajime was ready to reach out his pistols.
Meta: "No. I am hearing a helicopter and it is fast approaching."
Hajime: "Yeah. I see them. Way farther south." Hajime checked with his binoculars.
Meta: "You think they heard us?" Meta held the head of his staff.
Hajime: "Highly unlikely. Seb's rifle may be loud but not that loud. And besides, they were way out of the ear shot."
Hajime hesitated for a bit and checked again.
Hajime: "Hmmmmm...... You think it is one of the people attended the Gala?" Hajime looked at them.
Seb: "Not likely. For all we know..... It just some random rich kid riding a helo for showboating."
Meta: "Or one of those news anchor recordings the entirety of the Mount Himalayas for tour promotion.
Hajime: "..... Yeah...... Guess it is way too early to tell." Hajime stored his binoculars.
Meta: "Should we go ahead and proceed with the action?" As Meta charged his staff.
Seb: "No. We let this play it out. They might show us on how they are able to enter the facilities. They will likely have it secured and we will likely have problems entering through it due to its security systems."
Aillie: "I can hack it for you, Boss."
Hajime: "Thanks but we need to check things out first."
Meta sighed. "Alright. You are the producer. So how would you this play to go down?"
Hajime held his chin.
Hajime: "Think you can put the the bug on the politician without getting spotted? Neither Seb nor I can be stealthy enough to pull this off because this is Shambala, one of the world's mythical and mysterious place."
Meta scoffed. "Child's play.." As Meta began to take position.
Hajime looked at Seb. "Keep a lookout to make sure that we dont get ambushed."
Seb took out his binoculars. "On it."
Meta lifted his what was once his staff in the air and he slowly changed the form of his staff by slowly channeling his energy unto it. With deep breaths and deep thoughts.
Hajime raised an eyebrow.
Meta smirked as he came out of trance.. "One of good things about being an improv actor. We are always creative with abilities." His staff was changed unto a slingshot.
Meta looked at Hajime. "The prop is ready to be used."
Hajime nodded as he used his binocular to find the helicopter that recently landed. To his delight, the politician came out. He showed the target to Meta.
"There." Meta nodded and placed the bug unto the rubber band. He then mimicked of flinging the bug with the rubber band with his hand, causing the giant materialized energy to actually fling the bug to the Politician's collar.
The speed of that shot was so absurd, no one could have seen it landed on the collar. Not only that, it softly landed on it, not alerting the target.
The bug also began to blend in with fhe environment by activating his camouflage mode.
Hajime turned on the device.
Monk: "Namaste Senator Crawford. It is an honor to welcome you to the mystical temple of Shambala."
Crawford: "The honor is all mine."
Hajime turned on the holodisplay of the two conversing so that Meta and Seb could see what was going on.
Crawford: "I am here on Behalf of World Government and Children of the Empyrean Flame. We were told that you have found us a method for all of to reach enlightenment?"
Monk: "Matter of fact, I did. We have found us a method that not even Schicksal could replicate. This is a method where the humanity could be granted with the power of Divinity (Honkai)."
Crawford: "At last, we will no longer rely on gods to determine our fate. Please. Show us the way, oh great one."
Hajime nodded. "Looks like one of the setup is good. How is it on your end, Seb?"
Seb nodded and provided him the markers on the holomap.
Seb: "Just finished surveying the area with this. Good news is that we are safe for now. And due to the fact that we did earlier was pretty much the only wandering honkai beast stray we found, we can relax a bit." Seb just finished helping Aillie marking the mobs on the map.
Seb: "Hmmm....... Reconnaissance for now?" Hajime nodded.
Seb: "If you got any addition or suggestion to this while we wait this out, I am down." Meta gave a thumbs up to the idea as well.
The three began to think on a plan as they were packing things up.
Meta: "I got one. Walking to the main door as someone else." Meta raised the idea.
Seb: "That is a good idea. That way, he can survey the inside of the temple without alerting the guards." Seb nodded to that idea.
Hajime: "Hmmm....... Alright. So who will be doing the stealth infiltration thing?" Both Meta and Seb looked at Hajime with curious look.
"............Sometimes, i hate the two of you." Hajime rolled his eyes as he browsed through his inventory through the holotab.
Seb: "Who do you think he will turn into this time?" Seb whispered to Meta as they both watched Hajime changing his clothes through a hologram.
Meta: "My money is on Jing Ji." Seb raised an eyebrow to that. "The actress is hot. I mean....... Can you blame me?"
Seb: "........ Yeah. She is. Even Rita found her hotter."
Seb: "How is it a guy like Hajime knows how to be a hotter woman?" Meta scratched his head with his staff.
Seb: "................ Overwhelming charisma?" Seb shrugged. "Or maybe he got it from your sister?"
Meta: "No way. He was already successful with his disguises especially when he is doing 'Jingji'.
Seb: "................ It is because he is a guy?"
Meta: "Hmmmm........ I will take that response then."
A few minutes later, 'Jing Ji' is wearing an over coat with a intoxicating smile.
JingJi (Hajime): "Alright. Where are the stupid idiots before i start killing someone?" Meta and Seb pointed where the maim entrance was while 'Jing Ji' applied the voice modulator sticker patch on his throat.
'Jing Ji' frazzled her hair and adjusted the corset to let out the badonkers.
The sight caused Seb and Meta to look in disbelief and a tiny little blush.
This made 'Jing Ji' rolled her eyes and slapped the two.
SLAP!
SLAP!
JingJi: "You two are married men for crying out loud."
Both Meta and Seb rubbed their cheeks.
Seb: "Thanks."
Meta: "Gratitudes."
'Jing Ji' shook her head and loosen the overcoat, letting out the assets a bit.
And 'she' started to strut walk.
Meta: "You think the strut walk was necessary?" Meta whispered to Seb.
Seb: "I dont know. I dont think it would have been considering that the snow is almost 2 feet high."
Meta: "Do you want to listen in to see how the great 'Jing Ji' charms her targets?"
Seb: "Already have a snack for standby" Seb handed a bucket of popcorn.
As they both watched Jing Ji slowly approaching the two guards at the main entrance while eating some popcorns.
One guard gave a raised eyebrow, but didn't seem to be....alarmed of sorts that this random bombshell appeared and was heading for the pair.
Seems like they're not the sharpest tool in the shed.
But to their defense, Mystical temple of Shambala is a mystical place that is surrounded with honkai beasts and only those who are worthy can find the place.
Many have tried but failed to reach in time due to being corrupted by Honkai or being left alone for the beasts to feast on.
Many reasons why there were riot mechs found in the mountains to guard and protect.
Only select people can get to go inside with no problem and some can try to push their luck by riding the helicopter to the sacred place.
Many can try that route but there is also a reason why not so many can find the temple.
And because of that, they are not alarmed to the said presence of certain guests. It is just pure blessing to them that Jingji happens to be jaw-droppingly beautiful.
JingJi: "Is..... this...... Shambala?" Jing Ji looked at the two guards who was still enamored by her look and enchanted by her voice.
Meta saw the second guard and it somehow reminded him the time where he met Eden the first time. Entranced by Eden's golden beauty.
The first guard was about to answer but the second guard answered her with an enthusiastic smile.
Guard 1: "Yes, yes it is." He responded before quickly giving a polite small bow. "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Seb chuckled. "Small wonder why Rita gets things done so easily."
Jingji: "I was...... told to come..... here if..... I ever want to..... reach enlightenment.... Or was.... i told wrong?"
Guard 1: "Ah, well.....in a way....so you wanna see inside?"
Jingji: "I would be..... delighted..... if you could."
Both guards nodded as one summoned of the staff who was in casual clothes.
Staff: "Have I been summoned?"
The two guards pointed JingJi.
Staff 1: "I see. We will be delighted to have you, miss. May I know who you are?"
JingJi: "Jing........Ji."
Staff: "It is the most gracious to have Lady JingJi follow the path of enlightenment."
JingJi: "Is...... there..... a fee for this? I recently..... Lost the love of my life........ And I just wished that........ The struggles would cease once I entered."
Staff: "Oh. Dont worry about that. As long as you believe in the path we follow, there wont be any payment necessary." JingJi bowed in gratitude.
Seb was looking out for the three of them and quickly reached to his Comms after using the binoculars.
Seb: "Hajime, This is Seb. Heads up. There is a wandering stray coming at your way."
Jingji just smiled to that as she hid her hands behind her back, ready to whip out the pistols.that isn't seen as those are usually teleported to his hands.
Another staff ran towards to all of them, looking a bit worried.
Staff 2: "Sir? We have a wanderer upcoming."
Staff: "I see......." The man looked at JingJi with a smile as JingJi pretended to look around. Sensing that she was being looked at, JingJi softly smiled.
JingJi: "Yes? is something....... the matter~?"
Meta and Seb could have sworn that they watched four guys in JingJi's presence shook their knees as they could barely stand up straight due to the melody of her voice.
Meta: "You gotta give it to the leading lady. She knows how to put somebody under her thumb."
Seb: "Yeah..... Good thing Rita told me this beforehand........"
Meta chuckled. "............ She did this to you before, didnt she?"
Seb: "No comment....." Meta smiled as he looked again through the binoculars.
Meta widened his eyes as he watched Eden playing a grand piano with a golden goblet filled wine, letting the audience watched her in adoration.
Meta: "Eden?" Meta was confused as he just stares at JingJi. No way this is Eden or at least a 1 in a million shot this is her reincarnated or something.
Meta looked away before doing a double take through the scope.
Seb: "No..... she isnt but Hajime sure knows how to act like it." Seb raised an eyebrow as Meta rubbed his eyelids together and took out a bite of chocolate bar in his pocket.
Meta sighs. " Right ......... I forgot......." He took deep breaths and drank some water from his canteen flask. "Okay...."
Seb: "I could get a picture for you so you could show it to Ellie." Seb suggested.
Meta: "No...I don't want her to get her hopes up either." He shook his head and smiled. "Besides, I am certain that our cherished idol has known about Jing Ji's origins." Seb chuckled.
Seb: "Alright. Take your time to process, Meta. It isnt easy being reminded by an old friend when you couldnt see them anymore."
Seb and Meta watched again as they saw a few strays heading towards to the shambala temple.
Seb:"Hmmmm..... Now.... That i think about it, if the mountain is overrun with honkai beast, how come the shambala temple is still standing. You would think that the temple would fall to ruin after being left unguarded for a thousand years."
Meta: "...... Maybe there isnt much audience for these posers to entertain?"
Seb: "Highly unlikely since the myth of mythical city of Shambala has been passed down for many generations. It is actually a surprised that Otto couldnt find this temple before they did."
Meta: "Hmmmm...... Guess this might explain why." Meta pointed to the temple for Seb to look at as the two finished drawing up some clues.
Staff: "Miss JingJi? Could you come inside with us? We have an univited guess within our midst." JingJi nodded slowly and strutted to the inside of the temple.
The two guards came along and the one remained outside were the wandering Honkai beast. All of them were a frost type Catapult rank honkai beast.
Staff: "At ease gentlemen. If there are corrupted within our midst, we must let the city protect us."
The temple began to light up and the borders began to glow. And slowly but surely, it was beginning to light a perimeter and one was heading to which where Seb and Meta were standing from.
They can either move in or move back. But one thing for sure, the border looks solid enough to be a dense wall and
They really shouldnt be standing halfway through.
Both Seb and Meta went inside of the border as it fully closed behind them. The car that was with them?
BOOM!
Wasnt so lucky.
Meta: "Good thing that car was insured. Remind me again whose car was that."
Seb: "............. Hajime's." Seb scratched his head giving Meta a short laugh.
Both Meta and Seb adjusted themselves as they proceed to watch everything unfold.
There was a circle of light underneath the three wandering honkai beast as they try to get inside of the temple.
Staff: "Those who have their hearts corrupted would be purified." As the four temple residence held both of their palms and bowed.
JingJi looked with curiosity.
After a while, the light began to glow brighter and the three honkai beasts were beginning to fade out of existence as they were being 'purified'.
And everything was clearing out, leaving the residence in the inside and Both Meta And Seb looked with intrigue.
JingJi: "I am...... curious. Are everybody........ not welcomed here?" JingJi voiced out her concerned.
Staff: "No. It is not for everyone. It is for those who have not accepted the power of temptations."
Jingji: "Oh...... People like Otto ........ are not allowed if he was still alive?"
Staff: "And his would-be subordinates like the Overseer, Captain and Valkyries would be purified in the spot. After all, they cannot receive the enlightenment if there is a power manifested already. And not only such actions would poison the mind and the vessel itself." JingJi heard small hint of hostility towards to the former Overseer of Schicksal as the staff happily explained.
JingJi "You have....... my heart and gratitudes.....that you are granting this humble...... and aspiring singer access........" As JingJi expressed her thanks with small husk in her voice.
Seb: "Hmmm..... Good to know that we didnt bring any girls with us." Seb and Meta were still listening on from Hajime's comms.
Meta: "Yeah. But we cant say for certain if that applies when i do my performances." Meta held his staff tight.
Seb: "Are you not powered down?" Seb looked at him.
Meta : "I am for now."
Seb: "Then it is wise to keep it that way."
JingJi: "Let me.... remove my heels.... okay? That way...... it would not.... be a bother for everyone."
The staff nodded as JingJi slowly reached for heels. Due to the slow movements, she stumbled, accidentally falling on one of the staffs.
The staff almost got intoxicated from the perfume Jingji was using, accidentally holding JingJi's wrists as he was trying catch her by the arms.
JingJi: "Oh~ I didn't know ....... monks are allowed......... to touch me like this." The guards gave a dirty look, causing the said staff to sweat dropped.
Staff: "We..... Uhhh.... Still believed in chastity. So please fear not." As he was trying not to get killed.
JingJi: "Oh... Is that so?......... Shame......... I did enjoy how and where........ you were...... gently grasping unto me." Seb and Meta could see that the two guards was about to strangle the life out of the staff laughed.
Meta: "Hajime is a riot." As they both laughed how funny this scene was
JingJi slowly held the staff's arm as he helped her out.
When you zoom in closely, you could see that one of the fingers had a sticker that could work as a bug and a hacking terminal.
It stuck to the arms of the staff while being unnoticed by anyone else.
Hajime: "And....... hacking terminal is in. Thanks for that, Hajime." Both Meta and Seb could see Jingji giggled as soon as Seb responded to his comms.
The staff gave JingJi a tour. It showed her the library.
The sleeping quarters.
The fountain of rejuvenation.
The meditation field.
The healing wing. .
And some offering room where multiple staffs were lighting up some incense to ward off the bad spirits of temptation.
And funny enough, Both Meta and Seb could sense that there is a barrier set up that not even a honkai beast could go in.
There were multiple statues being displayed in the hall.
One of the statues seemed familiar.
Staff: "Is something wrong, Miss JingJi?"
Jingji was seemed to be staring at a the largest statue of the temple.
JingJi: "Who...... is she?"
When Seb and Meta saw the statue, the latter froze in his tracks.
Staff: "This is Lady Vishnu. The guardian and protector of Shambala. And there are legends say that she has built this place to keep us safe from being corrupted.
Seb: "Meta? You okay?" As Seb gently shook his shoulder.
Meta: "...... It's her." The statue only showed that the lady was wearing a large white cloak and almost a veil but there was no mistaken on her face as it was showing three marks under her right eye.
Upward and downward triangle and and a diamond.
"It's Vill-V."
Seb: "Well.......She looks...... great on a veil." As he was trying to lighten up the mood.
Meta: "But this isnt what she normally wears though....." As his voice to show some hostility, letting 'Jingji' know what was going on with the other side.
JingJi: "Hmmmmmmmmmmm~" JingJi let out a melodic hum to not just disarm who are oresen with her but also reminding Meta that they are on a mission and they are to show stealth.
JingJi: "Did..... the statue was created........ by Lady Vishnu?" As JingJi finishes her humming, signalling Seb to calm Meta down.
The staff chuckled as he felt energised by her humming.
Staff: "No. Of course not. This statue was created by our ancestors to give our praise for what she has given us. A home and way to ensure our survival against the divinity."
Meta: "Well..... they butchered her design. That is what i can say. She isnt supposed to be in veil. She hates wearing a veil. There is more. Where are her tools? The only thing they did right is the mark on her right cheek. But these stupid artists keep doing dirty on my leading performer. "
As JingJi kept hearing Meta ranting on how it looked on VillV and the many things wrong on it through the comms.
Seb was only seen patting Meta's back as he was getting furious.
He even held him off as Meta was charging ahead, reminding him that he was on a mission.
The staff finally ended the tour as he led JingJi to her quarters.
Staff: "I am sorry that we couldnt make the room grandiose."
Jingji: "That is..... fine. I like the...... ambience of the place~" JingJi placed her hand behind her back and gave a smile.
The staff blushed. "If you ever need help on your progress, let us know."
JingJi:"I will......." As JingJi winked at him.
The staff finally left and closed the door quickly as he couldn't stand JingJi's womanly charms any longer.
"Oh please forgive me Lady Vishnu for I have strayed from my path. Please grant me a road to redemption so that I can be your follower once more'."
'Jingji' rolled her eyes as she heard the man chanting loudly for breaking his chastity. After checking that she was fully alone. She sighed in relief.
Hajime: "Alright..... You two found anything on your end? Managed to put on a bug in every room that i managed to come across. Hope that you two got something." As the voice modulator sticker patch was removed from the neck.
Seb: "Had it run by Aillie multiple times. The only technological thing we can find there is the cellphones in that temple and those are just personal. We couldnt find anything that connects to VillV, children of the Empyrean flame or about the PE. We have reached a brick wall." Seb kept reading the contents of his holotab.
Meta: "I used my scanning on the temple. And i couldnt find a hidden easter egg on my end. Not even a callback reference to any of those three." Hajime clicked his tongue as he hid the voice modulator patch in his pocket.
Hajime: "That isn't much data to go on. Besides, we are just doing reconnaissance for now. For all we know, the statue that was shown was a coincidence.
Meta: "VillV's eyemarks?"
Seb: "Hajime might be right. It might be a coincidence. Maybe we just encountered a very weird cult which was weirdly place on top of Mt. Himalayas."
Hajime: "Yeah. End of the world can do that sometimes." Meta sighed but nodded.
Meta: "We just have to put on the detective glasses for this then." Meta twirled his staff which turned into a gourd calabash pipe and he switched his top hat into a detective hat.
Hajime: "Alright. if you need an inside man to check on something, Let me know." As Hajime began to check and synching with all of hidden trackers and sensors at the same time.
Seb looked at Meta with a raised eyebrow as the latter was confused at the latter's display of action. "Really?"
Meta shrugged. "The scene called for it."
"Alright then." Seb chuckled with a smile while raising both of his hand to show that he is dropping the confusion.
Hajime pulled out the holotab and placed it on the wall. What he is seeing right now is much like what the two were seeing.
The whole map of the place.
One could give a suggestions on what they would need to do.
Hajime shook his head and loosened the overcoat so he could work efficiently.
Seb: "Hmm."
A hum from Seb.
Seb: "If hon-ahem, Rita was here, she'd ask to incite some chaos to see how they'd react. That could help point us to the right direction."
Hajime: "What chaos are we talking about here? Causing chaos from within or outside? Because you just saw the temple's....... security system."
"Anything." Seb hummed. "Something that.....isn't a potential attack to them, but one that causes an emergency. Like a fire or.......an animal stampede?"
Seb being very creative.
Rita must've done a lot.
Hajime: "Hmmmm...... I found a fountain of rejuvenation here. I think we can go for that. I just need to know how its water ways works. I am a bit curious as to how a water here can cleanse some of the honkai corruption. Will that do?"
Seb: "Anything. So long as it causes chaos and we can see if they secure a specific area down. That's likely an important area."
Meta just looks around, just still amazed by this place while thinking of a plan
"Meta? You got something?"
Meta: "Working on it. Give me a bit." Meta's mind is wee bit occupied by the thought of Vill-V.
Meta: "I am going to check the Library." Meta answers.
Meta: "Maybe some details in how this whole thing was made and the history of this place, I have to make sure it is...accurate."
Hajime: "Alright. Let me find a way for you to get in."
Meta chuckled. "No need. I just need you to place a quantum charged crystal in the library so i could make a portal from here to there."
Hajime: "Portal as in Einstein Rosen bridge wormhole type of portal?"
Meta clicked his tongue to show his enthusiasm.
Hajime: "Alright. How about you Seb? Will you come along with him or you want to check some place else? After all this temple is big and I will be checking the fountain's water works and its infrastructure before i do your idea."
Seb shrugged. "Not much for me here. I'll tag along as extra eyes."
Hajime: "Alright. Keep an eye out for us then. If we need you, we will let you know."
Seb: "Hmm." He nods, taking a look around. "Not much happening right now."
Hajime was began to use his boots and stealth gloves as adhesive mode so he could climb on the walls. He activated his decoy drone to show that the beautiful Jingji as a hologram was sleeping softly.
Hajime: "Damn........ No wonder Ellie keep pushing to put JingJi on once a day. She is incredibly cute."
Aillie: "Hajime...... You do realize that she is just you without the short fuse and with a very attractive charisma, right?" Aillie commented in his earpiece.
"Right.." Hajime sweatdropped. "Attractive? Hey! Don't tell me that you fell for it as well."
Aillie: "Hajime. I say this out of respect and trust for you. But you are incredibly hypnotic when you are doing JingJi and I am just an Artificial Intelligence that turned into an ELF. Just go to show how effective your disguise is."
Hajime shook his head with defeat as he began to do his preparation.
He began to climb on the walls as crept around until he arrived at the hall. He saw that there was a monks with spears patrolling the temple.
Hajime: "Hmmm..... Best that i track these guards on the map so that both Meta and Seb would know what is going on." Hajime turned on his stealth glasses. "Aillie?"
Aillie: "Putting them on the map now."
Hajime: "Thanks. Do the same thing for Seb and Meta if there is one i missed."
Aillie: "Understood."
Hajime nodded as he kept creeping on the walls with stealth.
Mutliple men has been marked in the map and Hajime was at the library entranced, still adhering to the ceiling.
Hajime: "Everything is quiet so far."
As he tries to enter the library but he saw a group of hooded people heading towards to the fountain of rejuvenation.
Hajime: "Hmmm...... Alright. Will get there as soon as I let Meta in."
He snuck in to the windows and quickly hid before anyone else noticed
Hajime: "Hmmmm......" He looked at the area and there was a few residents doing some late reading.
He turned on his comma in his ear.
Hajime: "Meta. Heads up. There are a few people here reading some books. Once you arrived, dont make any necessary noise."
Meta: "Copy that and Thanks, Mr. producer." Hajime rolled his eyes as he kept crawling on the ceiling.
He noticed at the very far end that there was no people reading there so he stopped at that spot on the ceiling and dropped a quantum crystal.
Hajime: "Alright. Meta. Made an anchor for your portal."
Meta: "Alright. Thanks again."
Hajime made his way out and went to the fountain of rejuvenation by creeping on the walls. With maximum stealth.
