My Last Hunt - Chapter 383

Class Test 13

Qiao was constantly thinking what should do to kill two birds with one arrow. The Class Test time limit was fifteen days. According to the elders he was obliged to kill as many stronger beasts as he could during the mission. This said he was supposed to work out his mind how he should make it possible.

The assassin beast was killed by him. The Lord Beast would definitely investigate; it was bound to reveal the true circumstances. If this happened then the Lord Beast not only encircle the beast called Hiko in fact Qiao would be under serious danger by then. The second possibility was that the Lord Beast might send his loyal beasts to silently silence the beast called Hiko and the beast which appeared along with him.

All options led toward the horrible scenario where he might be surrounded with bunch of stronger beasts. To avoid such expected circumstances he needed to take some steps earlier. He noticed that Hiko was not going toward the cave. “The things are not as peaceful as they appear from surface.” Qiao spoke in bushy voice and instantly grabbed the attention of the beast.

“What do you mean?” Hiko asked curious. He was very happy to get the position of the council member thinking that it would be able to influence the matters of the Black Building. The beasts were obliged to listen the orders of the Black building; naturally Hiko could bring changes to those orders if they were not in the favor of the North Sepedra.

“Lord Beast gestured his loyal beast something vaguely. I don’t think that Lord Zim would sit still and wait for the time. He is bent on to get rid all of them who some way disagree with his decisions.” Qiao put his first attempt for planting doubt. He thought about the critical parts of his plan. Hiko was not competing with the Lord Zim in true sense. This said time would take till the things change however Qiao could not wait for the time. “Lord Zim has loyals; he is stronger and well crafty. I highly doubt that he would let go someone who dared to go against him. The disappearance of the assassin beast is also part of it.” Qiao intentionally rolled few different aspects in single speech so to make confuse the beast.

“I could not understand. Now I am council member, Lord Zim cannot send anyone to kill me.” Hiko spoke baffled. He found no reason to think about such possibility. “I am talking what I observed in the main hall. If senior is willing to believe then I am willing to take rest by staying your side however other way I might leave for my east den. I would choose to stay away from the matters of the Black Building.” Qiao sounded disappointed.

Hiko fell in worry. The beast was talking about leaving his side, it would weaken his position drastically and facing the cunning Lord Beast alone was difficult. Hiko was willing to believe fellow beast because it has no reason to deny the sincere intentions of this beast. “Speak in detail. I don’t want to die at the hands of the Lord Beast just like my fellow beast died six months ago.” Hiko was worried clearly.

“Who was the beast sitting at the right side of the Lord Beast?” Qiao asked. They were walking slowly in the middle of the thick forest. “It is called Colon and considered truest loyal of the Lord Beast. But today the actions of the beast were strange. I think Colon was aware about the assassin beast as well.” Hiko added.

“I also observed something off. I think the loyal beasts are also willing to kill you. This means they do not need reason to chase you. I have some suggestion because there is threat that Colon would not quit this chase till your death.” Qiao forced his last words to bring some fear for the beast.

“That is true. What suggestion you have, share with me.” Hiko was truly frightened willing to listen Qiao. Qiao paused for some time and surveyed the surrounding. “If the dead body of the assassin beast is used to trap Colon then Lord Beast would fell in dilemma. Lord Beast is getting stronger and arrogant because of his loyals, if it happened that he no more trust his loyals then the threat hanging on your head would vanish.” Qiao almost whispered.

Hiko shook its head. The words were simple and the plan was flawless. Hiko stiffened its fist and the long nails pierced the hand skin. “You are right. If I kept believing that Lord Beast would not take another step against me then I am the biggest fool. He could do anything with the help of loyals.” Hiko spoke in low tone.

Qiao whispered his plan hence Hiko also sounded in low tone. “How we will act on this plan. I don’t have idea.” It was willing to trap the loyal called Colon thinking that if the number of loyals decreased then Lord Beast would lose force and the arrogance.

In fact Hiko liked this plan. “What should we do then?” It asked. “We will search the whereabouts of the beast called Colon and leave the dead body in its den or the cave. You will speak few gestures in the next Lord Council meeting. These gestures would create some suspicion for the Lord Beast.” Qiao whispered first part of his plan.

“This is damn excellent plan. I was also worried for the dead body; it would start stinking in three days.” Hiko heard the plan and spoke overexcited. It always wanted to reduce the force and arrogance of the Lord Beast but until now only ruckus grabbed the attention of the beasts of the North Sepedra.

“Indeed, we should start working on the plan from now on. Wait…” Qiao stooped speaking gesturing Hiko. He sensed the presence of someone in the surrounding. “Some beast is eyeing us, I can feel the intent.” Hiko angrily spoke.
