Chapter 30 Cover blown
Minutes turned to hours and hours to days, and before he knew it, 3 days had gone by in a flash. Within those three days, Guilliman had altered from sleeping, practicing sword use and cleaning the beast Weiman.
Apparently, Victoria was busy with some other things and could not schedule a hunt. So he had basically been lazying around, it really bothered him as he thought of entering the forest on his own in several occasions.
Unfortunately, time had run out. He had to go home, if not for anything but to take the book under his bed. After that maybe he would just find a place to stay so he could focus completely on leveling up.
So as soon as it was bright out, Guilliman grabbed some of his things and passed through the tunnel before belining for the gate.
Before anyone knew he was out heading for the slums.
Passing through the streets, Guilliman took his time to observe his surroundings unlike before, he wasn't in a rush so there wasn't a need for all that.
The people on the streets of the shelter went about discussing several topics ranging from conversations on politics, Slayers and even food, most were extremely well learned.
However when he really put his head down he heard something that made him really uneasy.
The blackberry family
The death of their young master was seriously being investigated, especially with the rise of one of their families talents.
Apparently, the blackberry family had organized another espadtion to kill a sacred beast and this time it was a resounding success. But this success now begged a question.
Why in the hell did the other one fail? Why did the young
Master not escape even and the general consensus pointed to one thing-
-sabotage
'Things are happening faster than I expected'
Guilliman frowned, though just speculation he had a feeling it wouldn't take long before families involved in the incident would be interrogated and investigated.
Maybe even the families of the slaves. Of course it would take some time before they became that desperate.
'I'm still at level 2, that's not nearly enough....' Guilliman frowned, becoming stronger as a slayer seemed to be harder than the thought.
Did this good for nothing really have a hand in the death of the young master of the blackberry family? That couldn't be right, he was but a weak nobody.
"So we should wai..." the young man from the blackberry family was about to speak when he noticed a gaze from the crack in the roof.
He immediately frowned squinting his brows, but in the next seconds it was replaced with two light holes.
Was he seeing things?
He thought
However, inside the attic, Guilliman laid on his back, his heart nearly beating through his chest. They were talking about him down there, his cover had been blown to pieces.
'I need to get out of here'
Guilliman decided slowly turning before crawling backwards towards his bed, he couldn't make a pip of noise, else he might just get captured today.
Thankfully, he was very good at sneaking in and out of this house specifically. So before anyone knew it he was by his bed, stuffing important things into his bag.
He would not be coming here again.
Finally after a few seconds, he picked up the big book from under his bed and placed it in his bag
But just as he was about to leave, the door to the attic shot open as Carlsons gaze matched his from the ladder.
"I knew it!! He's right here!!!" Carlson said at the top of his voice calling the attention of those Below.
From his room, he could hear Guilliman whenever he picked up that massive book of his and would frequently complain. Thankful he heard it once more again today enabling him to find him.
"Shit" Guilliman cursed as he felt countless presences grow bright as they tried to go up the attic.
Without a second thought, he activated the rabbit braces and jumped through the window flying high into the sky.
"What the???" Carlson was taken aback by this scene and before he knew it-
Guiliman was gone
