"Zero… what?! What is this?! What just happened?! Were those really…" Reeve was confused as heck at the sudden increase in his stats and his eyes were having a hard time believing what he was witnessing?

I then spoke again,"Well… what are you going to do in exchange for that knowledge?" and he looked at me with a stupefied expression before recalling about the deal and realising what I was getting at, as he spoke,

"Yeah… well… I don\'t know what I can give you though… is there anything you really need?"

Looking at his honesty, I wondered if he really was a good boy or was he pretending to be one? Or maybe he just started respecting me that much? Hmmm.. wonder which is it…

"I guess… I don\'t really have anything at the moment that I really want," I spoke as I kept pondering if I can use Reeve in the future sometime.

His Dark Mana could be really useful as I have a lot of skills in my arsenal that he could use, though… he needs to improve in other aspects to be able to use them… especially skills related to mana control.

In the future… well, there are many instances where I could use him… hmmm… let\'s see…

"Hey Reeve… want to become my puppet?"

I spoke casually. At first I was going to talk him into becoming my pupil… but that made me recall some bad memories so I scratched that idea… having a puppet would be easier cause even if I would lose him, I won\'t really feel anything… probably.

"Puppet?" a bit confused at my words. He looked at me with his look turning a bit dark, and I continued speaking.

"I can train you and help you grow stronger and in exchange, you will do the tasks I provide you? You can forfeit in the middle as well, if you don\'t like my task, though I would stop teaching you after you quit."

He looked at me as his expression turned a bit relaxed before he muttered silently,"calling it a puppet… well.." and then he shook his head as he looked at me before speaking,"well.. If those are the conditions then I don\'t have much problems with that. So… is there anything you want me to do right now in exchange for the information?"

He spoke without any hesitation and I pondered a little before speaking,"can you arrange a meeting between Olivia and me? There is something I want to talk to her about," and he looks at me and turns back to glance at the castle before speaking.

"I… uh… okay, I will try, right now."

Though before he moved, I stopped him as I spoke,"well… wait. I guess I can teach you something today. Even though I want to meet Olivia, let\'s postpone it to tomorrow. I guess I need to go somewhere else tonight. As for the information… all I can say is work on your mana control first."

I felt Mark\'s eyes looking at me from a distance and I felt like he wanted to see me, so I postponed what I was going to do tonight.

"But man… this was really something.. I should be a peak S-Class right now… just who are you, Mr Zero?" I heard Reeve speaking as he was dumbfounded, looking at his system and before he could turn to me, I just vanished from there, leaving him all alone by himself.

I then reached the rooftop where I saw the three Leeway brothers standing together looking at me with a serious gaze. I just observed them as they moved towards me one step at a time, making my guard go up a few notches as I analysed them.

"What… exactly are you preparing for?" Spoke Cedric as he observed me with a deep analysing gaze and I got confused a little before Elric spoke.

"Cedric has… a secret that allows him to see through a person\'s heart and beyond that. We apologise for intruding on your thoughts but… we can\'t help but be terrified with what you are trying to do…" spoke Elric and I looked at him, wondering how much he knows…

"We can see that something is coming towards us and you are trying to… change that… I don\'t mind you using us honestly. Cedric told us that you didn\'t have even a speck of bad intentions towards us or our family… you just need our help… but honestly… Zero… can we at least know what kind of dangers we would be facing before we commit to it?" Mark spoke as he looked deep into my eyes and I observed him… he was genuine with his feelings… not anything like how the most dangerous man in the world would be… but more like a man who wanted to protect his family from a danger that he had no idea of…
