Chapter 201 - Part Two: First Meeting
Then I shifted to main topic, I inquired about his current health condition. To recover from ice element's injury is not easy. Fortunately, Because of Elder Thornton's timely arrival, Mr. Arthur is saved.
Hearing Zack's questions, Ms. Adeline key explained about Mr. Arthur's current health progress. And the results are good. In few days, he will fully recover. Hearing that I smiled. It's naturally good for me. I can't always seek Elder Thornton for help. If Mr. Arthur comes back to work. It will be very helpful.
After that, we talked about few other things, then I decided to stay here until evening.

Adrian Curry who is in disguise, successfully infiltrated the luxurious hotel. He already checked all the rooms of the building, except premium suite. He naturally want to check the premium room first. But just in case, he wants to make sure, there is no one suspicious in other rooms.
After arriving at the floor, Adrian Curry already hacked the monitoring cameras. He replaced them with another footage. The quality is so good, no one will find any changes for the time being. Unless they compare with actual place and the live feed.
A couple of minutes later, Adrian Curry finally reaches the last room. He highly suspects Assassin is in this room. If not then it would be troublesome. With solemn face, He succeeded in unlocking the door. He opened it immediately to confront the opponent.
The other hand, when the door opened. Assassin Ed Jolted awake, "Who?"
He shot his ice attack at the opponent.
He knew, it's impossible for others to open the door. He already informed owner of this hotel to not to disturb him, unless he calls him himself. So, now, he knew its an enemy.
Without thinking further, he choose to attack.
Perceiving the ice element,
Adrian Curry snorted, As he releases Peak Elite aura, the ice attack melts away in a blink of a eye. At the same time, Adrian Curry made his move. After confirming with his own eyes. He knew he is the target of the mission. So, he decided to lock him.
The other hand, Assassin Ed's expression changed drastically. As he felt the aura of Peak Elite, which is stronger than him.
Clashing against Peak Elite Warrior, there will be no save end. As a Professional Assassin he knew what to do right now. He used his mid level artefact to break away from opponent lock.
Using Mid level defensive artefact, Assassin Ed try to escape through the window. It's not a good place to battle. It will easily restrict him, fighting against strong warrior. Realizing that he immediately chooses to flee.
The other hand, observing the opponents artefact. Adrian Curry expression didn't change much. He appears in front of Assassin Ed in a blink of eye. He has a mission to kill him, So there is no need to keep his hands behind.
So, Adrian Curry chooses to end him. As he appears in front of him. He used peak elite strength to smash him. He opens his palm to slap him.
"Hysss"
The movement was so fast, Assassin Ed unleash his full elemental power to restrict it. He has a defensive artefact, so he didn't mind about defending. So, he pours his entire strength in his attack. He knew opposite party chooses to end him. His expression really become serious and unsightly. All his calculation gone vain against this immediate disaster.
As the Palm clashes against the huge dense ice block.
"Boom"
Huge palm print presses against the ice block. As the huge palm didn't stop it as it came in contact with ice block, it went further deep inside. Until, the palm travels all the ways to end and smashes against opponent's chin.
"Bang"
Assassin Ed blown away like a broken kite and crashed against the wall.
At the same time, the ice block cracked into several pieces and smashed all over the place.
As a result of fast crash, Assassin Ed saved from injuries due to defensive artefact. He is able to protect his body not his head. That huge slap caused sudden concussion and now further clashed against the wall. He felt further dizzy in his head.
Due to dizziness, he couldn't even able to sense his pain.
The other hand, seeing the state of Assassin Ed. Adrian Curry smirked. Hitting against Peak Elite warrior. It's no difference than hitting against iron plate. After reaching Elite level, every increment in level is qualitative improvement.
Adrian Curry knew, every attempt of Assassin is a futile attempt.
Seeing the crashed body, He no longer stood still. He moved, in an instant huge foot pressed down against the chest of Assassin Ed.
"Aaahhhh"
Assassin Ed yells in agonizing pain, His internal organs couldn't hold against the incoming pressure, His initial ' Elite level physique broke down instantly.
"blurt"
As a result, his lungs burst open, he spurted large amount of blood. His body trembled due to sudden shock.
Assassin Ed's already loose conscious further becomes blurry. As his vitality withers away due to loss of blood.
A Renowned Professional Assassin, due to imminent disaster loses his life in a blink of a eye.
The other hand, Seeing slowly slipping away the vitality of Assassin Ed. Adrian Curry decides to end it quickly. He crushed his throat with his foot.
As a result, Assassin Ed dies, from beginning to end it's an one side crush.
After ending the opponent, Adrian Curry collected his body in his storage ring. As a evidence of his mission completion. Then Adrian Curry uses the age old trick to cover the secrets. He sets the fire in the this room. After that he disappears from the place.
After departure of Adrian Curry, the fire blazes strongly and destroys everything in this room.
Surrounding items quickly catches the fire. As a result, it began to burn even heavily.
Due to earlier battle commotion, Sound of Assassin Ed crashing against the wall. Reaches everyone mildly. Staffs quickly arrive here to check the situation. But After seeing the blazing heat, it alarmed everyone.
Safety measures, being followed. All the people from the building, began to exit the building. The incident quickly flashes as breaking news in the site and broadcasted everywhere.
'¦
(Zack's POV)
As Zack is chatting with everyone. They saw the breaking news in television screen.
"Looks like huge fire broke out" Mr. Author said in a solemn gaze.
Hearing that I too looked at the screen to view. How come huge luxurious hotel have such an accident? Safety protocols were followed strictly in every business. Especially, in case of wealthy business.
"These days Red Stone city under many storms. I don't know whether it's good or bad." Ms. Adeline key said in a worry tone.
Hearing that Mr. Arthur sighed and said, "Don't think too much about it Ms. Key. Our circumstances are good compare to other cities."
Hearing that I nodded, not all cities were peaceful. Even among same tier cities there will be some competition. Leading to some intentional attacks on the other cities. For us it's good that there is no hostile city around us.
But above each and every tier, there is a huge competition among them. I only heard certain few things from Mr. Jonathan. I'm looking forward to have further chat with him. May be this time, I can learn more things.

The other hand, Adrian Curry removed his disguise and turned back to his original self. After successfully competing his mission, he took some time to remove his disguise.
After sorting out everything, he headed backs to Hansen campus.
Some time later,
He reaches Hansen campus and arrives at guest room in few minutes.
After seeing his son lazing lying down the couch. Adrian Curry said, "Junior, I already told you before, it's going to be boring trip. But you didn't listen to me."
Hearing his father's voice, Dean Curry sat up immediately.
"Father, If it's your work done, Can we go back now?" Dean Curry said in a restless voice.
Hearing that Adrian Curry smiled and said, "Alright, Get ready!"
Dean Curry reveals small smile and stood up from the couch.
Seeing his enthusiastic son he asked, "Are you really want to go back now? is this place is really boring?"
Recalling Elder Jensen's behavior earlier, Dean Curry looked at his father and answered, " There is nothing interesting here." But remembering mention of Seed Candidate. He added, "But this Hansen campus is giving too much importance to Seed Candidate."
"Oh!" an interesting gleam flashes in Adrian Curry's eyes.
Then Dean Curry explained everything.
But after hearing his son's words, Adrian Curry face looked dissatisfied. "This management really need some reshuffle. I will inform my superiors about it." He thought to himself.
Then he looks at his son and said, "Oh, you don't have to care about this people. They born here an die here."
Hearing that Dean Curry nodded. Then both of them decides to leave from this place. Before that, Adrian Curry informed everyone about their departure. To that, All the elders accompanied the father and son duo, Until they left the campus.
Seeing the officials gone away, Elder Thornton sighted in relief. Rest of the elders too have good smile on their face. They worried they would be under some inspection. Since, there is no such case, they all felt good.
Except Elder Jensen and Elder Smith. Both of them looked like deflated balloon. They failed to accomplish their plan. Elder Jensen gritted his teeth in frustration. He didn't receive any response from the official and his son.. They sounded like they didn't even care.
