Chapter 160: Chapter 79:Party
Moving through various alleys, Glaint always stayed behind Adryan and as close as he could according to the man's orders.
He took several breaths to calm down from time to time, his heart was excited but he was also a little scared.
Excited to attend a real beyonder party, scared to be so close to unknown beyonders fearing they would do something to him.
He trusted Mr. Adryan in a certain way which is why he agreed to attend, he also trusted that if something were to go wrong the man would be able to protect him.
"Mr. Adryan, are you sure this party is safe?" Glaint asked looking at the man's back somewhat anxiously, his hands were sweaty.
"This party is somewhat low level so you don't have to worry about something happening"Adryan kept his eyes straight ahead and responded calmly.
"Besides, if something were to happen, the organizer and I will be able to deal with it," the masked man added jokingly, but this only made Glaint feel more anxious.
Trying to distract his mind he began to recall the details of the party that Mr. Adryan shared in the letters they exchanged.
According to the man's words, it was a 'low level' party organized by a mysterious man called Mr. Eye of Wisdom, here you could trade all kinds of bullets,charms,potions,amulets,weapons and from time to time even potion formulas and beyonder weapons!!
'Mr.Adryan said that the so-called Mr.Eye of Wisdom can check the veracity of the potion formula at a price of 20 pounds...'
"Mr. Adryan, is it possible that I can find the Apothecary's potion formula here?" Glaint asked hopefully but Adryan shook his head.
"The Apothecary potion formula is jealously guarded by various secret and non-secret organizations, the possibility of not only finding the potion formula but also someone willing to sell it is very low" the man explained calmly, causing Glaint's hopes to deflate.
'So I'm back where I started,' thought Glaint somewhat depressed as he lowered his head slightly.
His hope to become an Apothecary was getting smaller and smaller….
But suddenly he raise his head when realizing a detail.
'If the formula was guarded so closely then how did Mr Adryan get hold of half of it?' thought Glaint enlightened.
Mr. Adryan was able to get one part so he should be able to get the other part!
Or at least know where to start looking!
"If it's kept so secret, then how did you get hold of it, Mr. Adryan?" Glaint asked the redhead suspiciously hoping to get more information but the redhead only let out a soft laugh.
"You were taking your sweet time asking me Glaint, I even thought you had a mental problem for not noticing that~" the man said amused making him angry.
"E- augjt" Glaint tried to defend himself but out of anger he tried to speak too fast and ended up biting his tongue hard.
This made Adryan laugh out loud and Glaint stare daggers at him with his eyes behind his mask as he cupped his hands over his mouth.
"I have my methods to obtain the formula but if you want more information you can directly ask Father Utravsky at Harvest Church and he might give you the formula" Adryan replied still laughing making Glaint growl in response.
"Stop joking Mr. Adryan, do you have any more information on where to get the formula?" Glaint asked, trying but failing to hide his annoyance.
He wasn't stupid enough to believe what Adryan said, that was asking to be killed or imprisoned!
No church Father would dare do that!
Adryan just shrugged his shoulders as he shook his head, still looking straight ahead.
"I told you the best place I know, that's all I have" the redhead said flatly making Glaint look at him dumbfounded.
Before Glaint could say or do anything, Adryan stopped and since the blonde was distracted and was following him closely, he didn't stop in time and collided with the man's back but the redhead didn't even move or trembled.
Instead Glaint fell to the ground on his ass grunting in pain as he stared in astonishment at the man's back.
'It's like running into a wall what is this guy made of?! besides why does he stop like that?!'
Adryan just turned around and seeing him on the ground he let out a soft laugh as he bent down slightly and extended his hand towards him.
"You have to watch where you're going~" he said provocatively making Glaint growl again as he stood up ignoring the hand of the redhead who only pulled it back with a smile under his mask.
Cleaning his cloak of dirt he looked around the alley, only finding a metallic door at the end of it but nothing else.
"Why did we stop, Mr. Adryan?" Glaint asked curiously.
"We're here" the redhead answered calmly as he went to the door he had seen before, this made Glaint look at him in surprise and then look at the metallic door in astonishment.
'There is the beyonder party?!' He thought foolishly watching as the redhead stopped in front of the door and turned to see him.
'This wasn't how I imagined it would be, but now that I thought about it, it made sense.
Beyonders outside of churches are illegal and will go to jail if caught so their parties have to be hidden to prevent that.' thought the surprised Glaint.
"That's why I never found one…." Glaint muttered but he watched as Adryan waved for him to come over.
"We don't have all day" said the redhead causing Glaint to run towards him.
"Sorry Mr.."
"Remember that from here on we won't say any names"Adryan cut Glaint off causing the blond to just shut his mouth as he nodded quickly.
Adryan just sighed as he shook his head making Glaint's hidden ears turn red with embarrassment.
The redhead only raised his right hand towards the door and gave 2 long hits with an interval of 3 seconds and then 5 short hits with an interval of 4 seconds.
All this before the curious look of Glaint who had a raised eyebrow behind his mask.
'Some kind of code so that only those who know it can enter the party?' Glaint assumed in his head and he saw how the metal door was opened and a rather tall man covered in a cloak and a mask that reached to the bridge of his nose stared at them both.
This made Glaint slightly nervous and he discreetly moved behind Adryan using the redhead as a shield, when this happened the blonde heard Adryan sigh.
The look only lasted a few seconds and the man moved out of the way and Adryan entered being followed closely by Glaint who felt his heart almost explode with emotion.
Everything that happened a few moments ago being forgotten and he looked around in amazement.
After passing a short corridor, they both entered a large room, in the middle of which there were several tables and chairs and many of them were occupied by several people.
Some were just like them dressed in cloaks and masks that covered their entire faces except their eyes while others were dressed in formal suits and with a mask that reached to the bridge of their nose.
One of these people Glaint noticed was a man sitting in front of everyone, he was dressed in a black tuxedo, with a tall black hat and with a cane in hand, he was wearing a face mask that reached up to his nose showing the small smile that was he carrying
'That should be Mr. Eye of Wisdom...'Glaint thought, looking at the man who raised his head and looked at him.
This startled Glaint and he quickly lowered his head and followed Adryan to a free table.
'Oh Goddess, Mr. Eye of Wisdom must be very strong, as soon as I looked at him for a few seconds he returned my gaze, I hope I didn't anger him' thought Glaint very nervously, while Adryan simply sit down with his arms crossed waiting for the party to start.
After about 10 minutes, which Glaint counted every second in his head, and seeing that no one else arrived Mr. Eye of Wisdom got up from his seat and spoke loudly covering the entire room.
"Seeing that some friends didn't come we will have to start the party.
For the new members let me introduce myself, I am Mr. Eye of Wisdom and I am the organizer of this party" the man introduced himself giving a soft bow.
"The rules are simple: no making trouble in the party or you will be expelled, no attacking other members while they are in this party, lastly, do not talk about any god here, whether it is official or not, if you do so you will be expelled." The man spoke seriously, making Glaint swallow a little saliva.
"Let the party begin" Mr. Eye of Wisdom said as he sat down in his chair.
