Infinite Mana in the Mage Academy

Chapter 77 Hidden Player



She looked like and small angel. But Alan didn't care and spoke.

"How old are you actually?" He decided to ask about her age as it was also important. If he wanted to train her, then her age should at least be 11 or 12 As a child couldn't handle killing any monster.

"I am... 12 years old." She wasn't fully relaxed, but she was a little relieved now.

"Huh?" Alan tilted her head.

"What?.." Lina also became confused.

"I ordered the dress of a 9-year-old girl." Alan said with a straight face.

"It's ok... It's fit... me completely." Lina said with a wry smile.

And Alan decided to make her stronger.

"Hmm! What do you think, Shina?" Chief, who looked at the hell in front of him, said that.

"This is probably done by an A-rank player." Shina said with a calm face, examining the situation.

In front of them had a pile of corpses. This mess was made up by Alan, who was mad at humanity. He couldn't control his rage and killed all of the people, innocent or not.

"Chief, everyone here is dead." One young guy said that.

"Hm. Kane, go and ask some people who live nearby." The chief's voice was serious.

"Ok." Kane spirited.

"This is the third time." Shina, who was looking at the corpse, said.

"Yes. It was just one week before the last mass murder occurred." Chief said while praying for the dead.

"Hidden players... I will make sure to find you." Sina said with a hint of angriness on her face.

"Chief, I know about players but who are these hidden players and why doesn't; public know them?" One guy, whose age was 18, said while looking at the destroyed markets.

"This will be long. Call all of the new recruits. I will tell all of you in one go." The chief said in a rough voice, his tone was serious.

"Ok." The guy used his hollow watch and called all of the members.

All of the members who were at the scene immediately came. They stood and whispered to each other. There was 10 soldiers.

"Ahem!" The chief's voice made all of the soldiers look in front.

"Ok. As you know, this situation is pretty messed up. This is not the first time, this happened. In just one month 2 other cases were also reported."

The soldier started to whisper, as they heard that.

One of the young guys from the crowd raised his hand and spoke.

"Chief, why were those incidents didn't reported on tv?"

"The reason is long. I will tell you all about it, so make sure to listen attentively."

All the soldier straightened their back and stared at the chief.

"Ok. These incidents are done by hidden players. Hidden players, as the name suggests they are the group of people who are awakened but don't reveal their power. Hidden players are quite troublesome. The first case of hidden player appeared 5 years ago. It was the case of robbery. " The chief caught his breath and looked at the soldiers, who were listening attentively.

"The robber was caught but he was awakened. He wasn't registered in our database. As you know, those who have awakened are generally part of any organization, guild, or party. And when they register or sell any monster material, their identity as players is revealed and is registered in our database...

And those players who aren't registered in our database are hidden players. Hidden players can be a single person, a party, and even a whole organization. But we don't have much info about them. And these hidden players love to wreak havoc..." The chief again caught his breath.

"Also, last month an incident of mass murder was registered. Almost 500 people were killed. And that incident was going to be reported on tv and other media but our government took action and stopped it. Why? If you ask then, it was to calm the people. If people know that there are hidden players then they could get wary of their surrounding people including their neighbors.

So to maintain peace we have to do that. So, do you understand everything?"

After the chief stopped speaking, every soldier nodded their head and whispered to themselves.

"Also, this incident could also be caused by a hidden player as we don't know the culprit. And this incident has more victims than the previous one. A total of 2000 people are reported dead."

The chief words made all of the soldiers shocked.

"Now, go and search and report any clues you find."

"Ok." All of the soldiers left the ground with determined faces.

***************

Alan was staring at the girl, who was sleeping soundly. She was none other than Lina. She had a relaxed and calm face.

Yesterday, in the middle of the day, he killed many people just because of her. But he didn't care about that. He took care of her, ordered her clothes, and gave her food. And last night,...

"I am going to book another room, you can sleep here." Alan said while opening the door.

"Why... do you want to... change room?" The girl nervously asked. She wasn't totally relaxed yet.

"Because here's only one bed." Alan said while pointing at the bed.

"But we can... sleep... toge... together!"

"Are you ok with that?" Alan asked.

"Yes... I will be able to... relax if you were here." The girl said in a low voice.

"Ok, then." Alan nodded and laid on the bed.

The girl nervously laid on the bed. Alan looked at her and spoke.

"Good night."

"Good night..." The girl replied and slept.

They both fell asleep.

Next morning...

"Hmm." Alan woke up but couldn't stand.

"Huh?" He looked at his side and found Lina clinging to him. She had her arm wrapped around his chest and her legs on top of his knees.

He was stuck. He looked at her calm and relaxed face.

'She is pretty cute.' This thought came to his mind as he remembered his past. He also wrapped his hand around his father's chest and fell asleep. And when he woke up, he saw his father looking at him with a smile on his face.

This scene made his chest ache a bit, but he ignored it and looked at her with a warm smile. This smile was natural and not stiff. His smile made him look gentle.

If any girl would have seen that smile, then they would have fallen in love instantly with Alan. But alas, there was no one. And the person to whom this smile was directed was fast asleep.

"Hmm." Lina slowly opened her eyes and looked at Alan.

"Huh?..."

....

"Hyaaaaaaa...." Her shout echoed throughout the room.

"I am very sorry." Lina said while bowing her head.

"It's ok. " Alan said indifferently.

Two minutes ago, Lina woke up, seeing Alan, which surprised her and caused her to yell. But thanks to the soundproof wall, her voice didn't travel outside and cause a commotion.

Alan stood and took a bath while Lina was sitting washing her face. After Alan took the bath, Lina went inside the bathroom and took a bath.

After taking a bath, they both eat the food sent by the hotel. Alan had already notified the hotel to bring extra food, so they had enough food to eat.

"Thanks for the food." Lina put her spoon down and prayed while Alan didn't even care and took the plates and put them outside.

A mini robot came to pick up the plate. Alan went inside and spoke.

"We are going to train today!" His voice was lifeless. It didn't have any emotions in it.

"Ok. " Lina agreed, she didn't have any choice but to accept it.

Alan clicked on the dungeon system.

<Dungeon Function>

[F-rank Dungeon... Click here to enter.]

[E-rank Dungeon... Click here to enter.]

"E-rank dungeon. " He looked at the E-rank dungeon button but decided not to enter now.

He held the hand of Lina before clicking the enter button.

"Hyaa. " She let out a shrill voice when Alan held her hand, suddenly. But after a second, she also held the hand and nodded.

Alan didn't care and clicked the enter button.

[Entering the Dungeon....]

[Ding! A new person has joined you in the dungeon... Party system has been activated.]

[Party system: A system that lets party members share exp and loot. Party leaders have the right to handle the distribution of loot, but exp is automatically shared and can't be changed.]

[Party System]

1. Alan (Leader)

2. Lina (Member)

Alan stared at the screen until the light covered his vision. Lina tightly held the hand. The sudden light made her scared.

Swoosh!

A gentle wind touched his face, which led him to open his eyes. Alan looked at the surrounding, area, which was the same. Nothing was different from the last time, he visited and nearly lost his life.

Lina, on the other hand, was clinging to Alan's clothes. Her eyes were full of despair as she saw one goblin ahead.

Her hands were shaking and she spoke in a low voice.
