Pfffff

Enzo sprayed a hot reagent on master Seth's wings, where what seemed to be a tear was visible. The spray quickly diffused along his feathers and healed the tear while others worked on the injuries of the other four.

"Eminent, I was wondering if you're aware of the orders from headquarters partaining to leaving the city" Enzo asked casually as he prepared wrapped the wounds of the old man.

"Hm? Supreme star seed, I'm aware " nodding firmly master Seth sighed.

They couldn't rescue them without the forcefiejd being destroyed. So the higher ups decided to incentivize these kids to risk their lives. It was extremely shameless, but also the only thing they could do.

"Okay, just wanted to clarify.." Enzo nodded, he had thought as much

"Will you be participating in the mission?" Enzo calmed and added.

"Yes and no, unless something completely out of your control appears we won't interfere" Master Seth could see where Enzo was going with his line of questioning.

The dark side was crawling with tyrants and other ungodly creatures, the institute wouldn't send them in there without any backup.

Enzo hypothesized that the moment people started entering the dark side later today, the holy weavers would push to its periferies, helping whomever they could in dire situations.

It placed a lot more stress on them, but it was just one more step forward for the group as a whole.

"That's a relief," Enzo nodded then brought out a packet of instant noodles and prepared it for him.

Enzo's goal was to head to the city library as indicated in the map, there according to the men of the old city, there was someone whom could help him with more information.

For that he needed to know he could fight without the fear of being attacked by a tyrant.

"For you" Master black suddenly commented an annoyed look on his face. They were about to face much more danger than they were previously facing and this guy was speaking of relief? Relief for who?

"Sorry" Enzo smiled bitterly

"Speaking of the dark side, we should be receiving a few treasured echos from the institute, would you guys mind going over to retrieve them?" Master Seth said diffusing the situation.

With greater danger came greater support from the institute.

They had moblized several high grade profane echos specialized in combat and defense and sent them over to help support the holy weavers (eminently)

"Sure" Enzo nodded a glow shining in his eyes.

They too were planning to head to the supply ship area to exchange materials for points and supplies. Going the extra Mile was not w big deal.

"Okay, Lewis will go with you to make sure everything goes smoothly" master Seth said with a smile pointing to the snowfall weaver.

Amongst the treasures being handed out to them, one in particular was very dangerous and mischievous, they had to send someone at the holy level at the very least if things went wrong.

In the far side of the city's edge a small depot building had been erected controlled entirely by a system based control.

[Your contribution points are not enough for this purchase]

Infront of the depot area, a screen lit up reading out messages out loud as if announcing. Hearing that a student frowned and walked away with a small bag on his back.

Earlier in the morning this place had been bustling with activities as a myriad of weavers appeared to make exchanges and stock up on tools for what was to come.

However, with each purchase, the price of items seemed to increase futher discouraging those around and pushing them away.

This was because of demand and supply, the cargo ship wasn't limitless and with every purchase materials became scarce. Without some form of regulation everything would be gone in seconds not allowing others to benefit.

"You guys are too late, everything's sky high now, fuck that great terror!!" The young man whom had just left the depot said to a group of 5 as the approached the depot.

He looked more than frustrated, he looked angry, on his way here he had been attacked by a great terror forcing him to run and hide, he couldn't have known that things would be like this….

He was hoping to enter the dark side today, but now he might have to wait an additional week.

"Ahh, sorry about that" Enzo shook his head a frown on his face also, but turning to master Lewis he sighed hoping that he would have a loophole.

"I can't bypass the system, But seeing that you guys went the extra mile to come take care of us, I'll see if I can get each of you at least two items" Lewis smiled as he walked towards the depots interface.

They had to reward duty, as higher ups, this was the only way they could maintain loyalty and love for the organization.

[High level clearance detected, welcome code them name Snowdevil]

The system said the moment it noticed master Lewis In its area.

Not wasting time, Lewis placed his hand into a hole in the wall and scrolled down using a touch pad within it navigating the screen until.

[You have select package X, proceed 20 meters to the left and await your delivery]

The screen read and without thinking twice, Lewis looked to Zeke and Enzo as if telling them to follow the instructions.

They did, arriving beside a giant wall next to a completely collapsed building. The depot itself didn't house any treasures or materials, it was just a method to facilitate payments and the likes.

Before the knew it, a box came crashing down from the sky released from the giant cargo ship flying just outside the city.

Boom!!

A cloud of dust quickly picked up with several boxes appearing in view as the box automatically opened.

To the side, Lewis approached the boxed and squatted next to them and hit a few numbers in.

[You have received an echo]

[Red priests jacket]

[you have received an echo]

[blade of severance packages]

A Myriad of notifications came to Lewis's head as he picked up every echo one after the other, each of them insanely powerful.

These treasures would be what they would rely on when entering the dark side of the city In a few hours.

"You guys can go ahead and pick two items each in a minute" Lewis said as he walked away from the boxes and towards the depot booth once more.

There he passed on several monster parts of the tyrant rank in exchange for points carrying the number of points he had by several thousands..

In as much as being in Rune city was dangerous, It had truly made them rich. The share number of beasts he had killed had made him something to be admired even amongst the scions of the snowfall family.

After his quick exchanges he called forth the members of the house of darkness and allowed them to pick two items each of incredible worth..

At least for them star weavers.

One after the other they picked until finally it was Enzos turn.

"I don't want much, just something for tracking and exploration" Enzo smiled coyly reading through the various materials

Immediately three things caught his eyes and one of them was something a bit different from an echo.

It was called a Shipon

Certain weavers, especially those with the shaman Avatar would typically upon receiving an echo have the ability to exchange it for something called a shipon.

It was a spirit representation of a downed beast in its refined form.

It was like minion or exactly what Victorias puppet was.

Enzo had a feeling he would be able to do it in the near future, since the void coffin could, but right now he could only settle for this.

[Dog type: Tracking specialist]

[ warrior rank]

[Description: this shipon was born from a beast that specialises in looking for prey and tagging it with a distinct scent that allows it to follow it to the ends of the earth. Range is 1000 meters]

Enzo read the description and smiled.

This was exactly what he was looking for, as a hunter he needed to either learn how to track or receive a treasure that allowed him to do so.

With this he could follow closely whatever he sets his eyes on and eventually capture or kill it..

"The price tag though" Enzo smiled bitterly.

That thing cost and arm and a leg, he couldn't let Lewis foot such an enormous bill.

Fortunately, he had been saving for this for a while. Without a second thought he paid for the shipon out of pocket then the other two with the help of master Lewis.

This all happened under his gaze but he Didn't compain so Enzo could only nodd as they banned together and departed the depot together.

While they were doing so however a creature far away with the build of a man bat stalked them with hatred in its eyes.
