Chapter 32 - Plan

"Okay class dismissed."

The class starts getting loud and everyone goes out of the classroom. Outside in the hallway Noah and Edwin are walking to the entrance doors. Noah wants to invite Edwin along for lunch later and Edwin considers it.

Noah notices Edwin checking his phone and he declines the offer saying he has something important to do. Edwin apologized and Noah is off to his next class.

Noah who is now walking to his next class feels a buzz in his pocket where he left the burner phone. He sees a message talking about a potential meat up.

Wrath: what about Wednesday this week? We can do the extraction on the weekend.

Noah sends a message on a possibility and gets good replies and everyone agrees on meeting up Wednesday.

I'll just have to go to classes and meet up in the area Wednesday at 7pm.

"How shall we start?"

Kevin said but he was wearing a black suit this time and all fancied up as if he was in. A meeting. Which was rather odd for him because he does not need to wear a suit, at least not from what Noah thought.

They were currently in the underground castle, which is their base of operations. Noah had been driven here by Kevin and they arrived there together and saw the others who had already sat on the chairs.

"We need the information on how you'll get the parasite."

The lion guy said. He was sitting in a comfortable position with his legs on the table and leaning back on his chair.

Of course Noah had to respond. "I will be manually moving the corrupted particles of the parasite out of the body. So I will need the professor to stay in an area for a good amount of time. About 10 minutes. Is that doable?"

"Oh that's easy then? How exactly are you going to extract it?"

This time it was the snake speaking. She was sitting with her legs crossed and her arms resting on the chair's armrests.

"I'll use a special technique, a trade secret."

"So, no prying."

Snail said slowly. He had his head on the table and there was a slight drool coming out of his mouth as if he was sleeping. But the drool dissolved the moment it touched the table as if it was never there.

"I'll attack first, then the snake will bind it. Lion can black any attacks while snail will keep it in place. Simple enough right?"

Kevin said while he was sitting there. And Noah nodded to the plan.

"I'll then go into the area of where the professor is and extract it."

Noah added then the lion jumped in and interrupted.

"So where will this take place though? We can't do it on campus because it is way too open."

Kevin had thought of a reply but Noah thought it was weird.

"Let's go to his house."

Snake sighed and face palmed her head.

"His house? What about kidnapping him and taking him into an abandoned area? Or like a field a few hours away from the city."

"That takes too long. His house is the most optimal place."

Kevin argued back and then continued to explain his position on why the professor's house.

"We can seal off by a barrier so it won't have any reports to the authorities. He also lives alone. I found where he lives and he has no wife or children around so it's just him. His wife is long dead and his children and other family members r across the world when i checked yesterday."

Noah was just weirded out by how much information he had dug up.

Why do you know all of this?

"It is relevant for the mission so i dug into it"

Reading my thoughts is scary.

Kevin was looking at Noah as if he knows what he was thinking

"Of course it won't be easy sneaking in. We have to be really quick and quiet so we won't alert him about the ambush"

"Then should we use special equipment?"

Snail jumped in on the suggestion after Kevin said the difficulty on it. Kevin nodded and pulled out a few pairs of earrings.

"These artifacts will make it so our presence will be near nothing. Think of this as a gift."

Kevin said and passed everyone a pair of earrings. Everyone was a different color. Lion's was gold, snake's was green and snail's was a gradient of blue and green. Of course he got one too, for him it was red. Then Kevin takes out one for himself, for him it was blue.

"I also got weapons for everyone but I'll pass those on later when we meet up. We need time to finish the process of fixing them, they were a bit damaged on our last mission."

Kevin looked at the lion and he got defensive and slammed his hands on the table which made a loud bang sound.

"Hey, it wasn't my fault someone was on the ground asleep! Look at snails instead."

Snail just shrugged his shoulders and went back to closing his eyes and looking as if he was asleep once more.

This angered the lion and he storms off while saying something.

"If that's all, see you later."

Snake sighs and Kevin just shakes his head but he lets him go.

"Mr Wrath, any questions?"

"Nope, all good. Wait actually, what kind of weapons are we using?"

"Oh for you, u can decide between a dagger and a sword."

A sword is more long range if i use it with mana.

" Does a long sword count?"

Kevin nodded and Noah gave a thumbs up as if he was implying that he wants that. While they talked the others left quickly and so Noah and Kevin goes back to the car together

"I don't really know the other's skills. Got any videos so I can compliment their movements?"

Noah asked while in the car. Of course Kevin nodded and quickly he sent files over to his burner phone privately.

"What about you? Got any skills the others should know?"

Noah shook his hand and only said that he only has buffs and the extraction skill for the corrupt souls.
