Chapter 726: The Two Beauties’ First Visit
Shye put on a grim expression as he used the Valenzia return scroll to teleport out of the venue, reappearing moments later at the special teleporter in Valenzia Square.
He then asked the administrator if a black-haired young man returned using the teleporter an hour earlier than him.
Unfortunately, it appears that Siegfried hasn’t returned using a Valenzia return scroll.
He may have used a different method or hasn’t returned at all.
’Or maybe he used the tweaked emergency escape talisman I gave him?’ Shye wondered as he thanked the administrator, quickly heading towards the guild.
He then met up with Shirley and the others, asking them if Siegfried had returned.
Their answer was the same as that of the special teleporter administrator.
Concerned, Lesurii asked Shye what had happened.
He answered patiently, explaining that while Siegfried was safe, he had left the venue an hour before him.
This news distressed the young miss of the Kusanagi Clan, who had unsuccessfully tried to contact her lover.
While Lesurii continued to desperately try to contact Siegfried using her mana communicator, Ian asked Shye about Kiin, who, like Siegfried, did not return with them.
They thought Kiin stayed behind to help Shye. Unfortunately, it seemed that it wasn’t the case.
Shye naturally pretended to be concerned, even though he already knew Kiin’s whereabouts.
He told everyone to leave the search for Kiin and Siegfried to him, assured them that his WAA connections would help locate the two, and advised them to rest and resume their training for now.
Lesurii knew that it would indeed be better to leave things to Shye, so she complied with his orders despite being distraught with worry.
Shye was in a hurry, so after informing everyone that both Kiin and Siegfried were missing, he left the guild and sent a message to Shirley and Seira using the tweaked mana communicator he had given them.
The communicators had been modified by Hadean Varsa to ensure that the WAA wouldn’t be able to track their conversations, even if they asked the Manasoft Corporation to cooperate.
After exiting the room and entering the hallways, Seira, struggling to keep her mouth shut, finally let the words she had been holding back spill out.
"B-Boss! Y-You were a commander of Hadean Varsa? Amazing... as expected of my boss."
Shirley didn’t speak, but it was clear she was also impressed by Shye’s high rank within the organization.
Shye genuinely enjoyed their reactions, though he felt a bit embarrassed since the old man had suddenly appointed him as a commander.
He hadn’t put in any effort to earn his position at all.
Nonetheless, there was no need to admit such a truth, so he simply continued walking towards the old man’s room.
A few minutes later, the three of them arrived in front of a huge metal door.
"Old man, I’m here."
"Come in."
Glancing at Shirley and Seira and nodding at them, Shye opened the door.
His eyes then narrowed at what he saw.
The entire room was in disarray, clearly indicating that Sanada had just finished venting his anger, as he was still breathing heavily, while his appearance was that of the terrifying hermit Shye had encountered back in the beginner adventurer zone of Colzen City.
Shirley and Seira felt fear gripping their hearts at the sight of the old man.
This was the Hadean Varsa leader Shye had told them about, the former legendary Voidweaver, Sanada Eiichiro.
The scowl on the old man’s horrifying face only intensified the dread in the hearts of the two beauties.

Realizing there were two youngsters behind Shye, Sanada forced himself to calm down, transforming his appearance into that of a friendly neighborhood grandpa.
"I apologize for scaring you, young ladies. Don’t worry, I won’t take my frustrations out on you," the old man assured, somewhat easing the fear in Seira and Shirley’s hearts. "Well then, lad, shall we interview your prisoner?"
