Mahito was reading a letter in his office that he had just gotten from a close friend of his. This friend was a powerful warrior with levels above 360 and had a high prestige among the mid ranking adminstrators. Recently he had managed to found out that the terrible organisation that was responsible for the last war was trying to make some kind of move again. So he wanted Mahito to be careful.
Mahito was gratified that his friend cared about him this much but at the same time, he was also worried about the sudden movement of this insane organisation. All the inhabitants of the Inazuyan Archipelago hated them but with how powerful they were, they had still managed to maintain their presence here. After their last failure, Mahito was sure that this time they would be even more prepared.
While Mahito was getting worried while thinking about all these things, he had no idea that he was not the only person present in the office. Someone else was standing just behind him who was completely undetectable.
That person was obviously Elena. At first she was planning to meet Mahito normally but even before entering the general affairs office, she found several spies from the thunder destroyer guild in this place. Getting rid of them was not a problem for Elena but quite a few of them were in high positions and their sudden disappearance would create a lot of trouble.
That was why Elena did not go to meet with the administrator immediately and instead started to investigate this place while hiding her presence. It had not been too long since she started her investigation but she had already managed to find five people who were definitely working for the Thunder Destroyer Guild. Elena was sure that there were several more people who had not revealed themselves so far. So she decided to not reveal her existence to them. In the current situation, working behind the scenes would be more useful for Elena.
But first, she needed to make sure that the adminstrators himself was not a spy. In that case, Elena would need to leave this island and had to find another more suitable administrator to give the news. But fortunately, Mahito turned out to be a good person so Elena did not need to do that.
But still Elena did not reveal herself before him. There were several people whose senses were focused on this room. So if she appeared, she would immediately be discovered.
That was why she decided sent the all the information directly to Mahito's mind while telling him about her reason for doing so. She also decided to help him out a little bit by informing him about the spies that she had managed to find.
After doing all this, Elena did not stay in the office anymore and left. She only had three days but a lot of things to do. Wasting any time would not be good. So while Mahito was losing his mind after suddenly getting a huge amount of valuable information, Elena had already disappeared from there and even from the whole island.
As the first island was just a small one, there was not much that Elena could do while staying there. So she decided to visit some of the larger islands. With the information that she had bought, Elena was now capable of navigating the Inazuyan Archipelago quite easily.
...
Her next destination was a large island called Nimfera. This place was listed as one of the high priority target for the Thunder Destroyer Guild. So Elena was sure that they definitely had a lot of members here. As for why this place was a priority target for them, that was because of the existence of an tree called " Pure Thunderbolt Tree".
This tree gave birth to special fruits that were the key ingredients for a potion that would increase the power of the Lightning Phantom Demons by a large margin and with very little side effects. This fruit was one of the main factor why the fights below the Demigod rank was also dominated by the powerhouses from the Inazuyan Archipelago during the last war. That was why, the guild wanted to target this island first to cut off the supply of this game changing fruit.
...
After reaching the island, Elena was impressed once again. Even though the general look of this island was very similar to the other islands of the Archipelago, it still managed to gave a new and special impression. This island was famous for its various fruit gardens and it was one of the most green islands among the islands of the Inazuyan Archipelago.
Even though Elena was in a hurry, she still did not forget to buy a lot of fruits from the market. During the shopping, she was also keeping her ears open to collect all kinds of information. So even when she was fulfilling her wishes, she was still working.
Again, without even trying that hard, Elena managed to find a few people who were working for the Thunder Destroyer Guild here. It looked like, the guild had been planning this war for a long long time and were in the final preparation phase.
After her shopping was done, she started to actively sought out information instead of being passive. So very soon, in less than two hours, she had managed to get a good and detailed idea about the situation of this island, and it was not looking good.
There were seven orchards that cultivated the Pure Thunderbolt Tree. After her investigation, Elena was sure that the all seven of the orchards had people from the guild. Even the head manager of one of the seven orchards was a high ranking member of the Thunder Destroyer Guild. That place could be considered to be already destroyed as Elena had seen that all the trees there had already been poisoned and in just a few months, those trees would wither and die.
The main ruler of this island was the shirne maiden but she only came out during a few special festivals. Other than those days, she always stayed inside the shrine. Elena could just sneak inside it to meet her but as she never really bother with the administration of this place, meeting her would be useless. So Elena decided to meet up with her representative who truly ran this place.
Elena had already made sure that the person in question was not a spy. The representative was a lady who did love money a bit more than regular people but had never really committed any crimes for it. She liked to earn a lot of money with her own hard work, which was a perfectly fine trait to have according to Elena.
And as one of the biggest businesswoman of the Archipelago, Elena was sure that this lady would have a lot of connections, even more than Mahito. So Elena had high hopes that by cooperating with her, she would have a much easier time stopping this war.
