Kidnapped Dragons (KR Web Novel)

Wei Yan called his assistant Kwok Pan Wei.

“Yes, professor. Did you call me.”

Kwok Pan Wei held his shivering hands together.

Now that [Melissia Masquerade] was just around the corner, Wei Yan was as sensitive as he had ever been. There were many things that had to be done, and Kwok Pan Wei had received his orders multiple times a day.

But this time, the atmosphere was rather strange.

“I have a few of my people inside the International Hunter Association. Youre aware of that, right?”

“Yes, professor. Of course…”

“One in human resources, one in the supplies, three in the frontlines and two from the commanding group… I have a lot of ears spread out in all places, and hear many stories.”

“…Yes.”

“But most of the reports I receive arent interesting. Stories of high-ups with stored belly fat, are always one or another.”

Kwok Pan Wei rolled his eyes because this time, Wei Yans explanation was a lot longer than usual. What was he trying to say?

“But… today was a little bit interesting.”

“…?”

“There had been an official letter secretly sent to Japans royal family.”

In surprise, Kwok Pan Wei widened his eyes.

Japans royal family?

If that was true, the letter would most likely have been in relation to Melissia Masquerade.

“Well, us demons arent perfect existences either, and the moment Prototype X became a failure, it also became impossible to fully connect our minds. So its possible for there to be a little rat from the association. I understand that.”

“…”

“An official document from the association to Japan? Possible. They could have had a clue regarding it, but sending it to Japans royal family, and not a random guild of Japan? I wouldnt say thats possible. The association and the royal family arent close enough to send greetings are they? In other words, there is a high chance that the association is aware of every hint of ink that is on our strategic document. Aigo, but you know what?”

“…”

Wei Yans expression crumpled like a devilish ghost, as Kwok Pan Wei felt something suppress his breath.

“I dont know what thatletter is about.”

“…”

There was a gap in data and intel.

The association started preparing against the strategies of the undetectables, while they hadnt even grasped the intention of the association.

“Go and find the rat. If you cant find it, bring me a tail at least. If you cant even find that, find traces.”

Due to the appearance of an unbelievable existence named X, things started going south, and the assistant professor had been slapped a few times. He had already known that Wei Yan had labelled him useless, but this time, he was swept past with a different anxiety.

“If you cant even find traces… why am I keeping you?”

Kwok Pan Wei started moving.

Spending sleepless nights, he checked the entry records and looked through surveillance cameras of the surrounding areas. He browsed through security artifacts, and crazily searched through everything that could have caused a leak in information.

However, he was unable to find any traces of outsiders approaching, and that was when something popped up in his head.

“No way, this fucking…”

With a stiffened expression, he called his assistant Hashimoto. She knew of one of the most important secrets regarding Melissia Masquerade, because he himself had told her about it. When the short Japanese woman in her twenties entered the office, Kwok Pan Wei pushed her to the wall.

“Ahk! W, what are you doing?”

“How could you do this to me, bitch.”

“What…?”

“How many years did we work together, and yet you betrayed me like that? What tempted you huh. Did the association give you money? Did they promise you a better life? Or did they allow you to live without others finding out you were a demon? How dare you! How could you betray me!”

Kwok Pan Wei was furious like fire. Instead of the certainty of Hashimoto being the traitor, his rage stemmed from his anxiety and unease.
