My Slayer System: Rise to Supremacy

Chapter 154 A Plea for help

After beating up the adventurers that accused him of stealing, Jake sold his advanced tier crystal for a thousand credits which was the normal price of the crystal. This amount of money was enough to make some small time adventurers go crazy as advanced tier crystals were hard to come by.

That was why those adventurers accused Jake of stealing so they could take the crystal for themselves. But it ended up badly for them as Jake had dealt them huge injuries.

After selling the crystal, Jake headed out of the Guildhall so he could go back to the academy. But before he could go far, he felt a hand on his shoulder stopping him from leaving.

Quickly turning around, Jake could see two individuals standing in front of him.

"We need your help." one of them said.

Standing in front of Jake were two known individuals to him.

"Berg! Helen? What are you doing here and what do you mean by you need my help?" Jake asked.

"Do you mind if we could go somewhere private?" Helen asked.

"Sure why not?" Jake asked as he followed their lead.

Jake hardly trusted people but if it was Berg and Helen, he had a slither of trust for them as they had helped in fighting against the Beta werewolf even though it was for their own life.

And they had helped him sometimes. Even Helen had surrendered an advanced tier crystal that they all hunted together to him out of kindness.

After a few minutes of walking, they finally got to the town's library. Seeing the building, a memory popped into his head as he remembered when he wanted to come here and he met two werewolf strays that ravaged the town and nearly killed him.

That was when he encountered the system in the form of an orb.

'I didn't even bother to find out how that orb ended up in my pocket therefore granting me the system. And how did two strays evade the academy's security and get into the town that day?' Jake thought as he was walking into the library with Helen and Berg.

'Someone must have helped and I'm sure it wasn't just anyone, it was surely a higher up. But why would they help the werewolves? I really can't trust any of those Head Generals now even some of the Generals.'

'The only ones i can trust currently are those in the Fang hunters. So I will have to be careful from now on.' Jake thought as they finally found where to sit in the library.

Tapping on the table, a transparent shield lifted up and covered their table which surprised Jake as they could see the shield but those outside won't be able to see it.

"It's a silencing orb, made by one of the big three. This orb won't allow anybody to hear whatever we speak of so it will allow us to speak freely without the worry of being overheard." Helen explained.

Hearing Jake's answer, Helen broke down in tears as she had expected Jake to agree because he was practically her last hope.

"Not yet that is." Jake clarified. "Look, I want to help but I know I'm not strong enough and I got a lot on my plate currently with the academy and other things."

"That is why, I won't help for now but when I grow strong enough, I will help reclaim your city that's a promise." Jake said.

"For now, you guys should head back and act like nothing happened. I will contact you when I'm ready to act."

"How will you contact us?" Berg asked.

Jake had been planning on doing this and now he had the chance.

"I have a skill whereby If I wanted, I can invite people into my group and anybody part of my group, can communicate with each other even though they are far away." Jake explained.

Listening in, Helen was certainly impressed.

"But for that to work, you will have to be willing to submit yourself to me." Jake said.

"Anything. I will do anything." Helen said.

"Very well then." Jake said as he activated contract and sent it to Helen and Berg.

Helen didn't even bother to look at the terms as she agreed and clicked yes. Then Berg also did the same and a symbol appeared on their body.

Before leaving, Jake showed them how to use the system and promised to contact them when he was ready for the take over.

Then he left the library.

"I wonder what the werewolves were looking for in Helen's city that they had to attack with so many werewolves. Were they also looking for something in the academy when they attacked?" Jake asked himself as he was slowly walking back to the academy.

"Isn't it a little bit too convenient that the werewolves attacked one day and the next, the Iron Fist Guild took over?" Zee who had been mostly quiet for some days finally spoke up.

"You think that the Iron Fist Guild are working with the werewolves?" Jake asked.

"That's just a theory. And I think they also have people working for them in the academy too." Zee replied.

"Then if that's the case, I need to grow my guild's strength and expand the members soon. And I know how to start." Jake said.
