186  Meeting Jenna! Rank Hierarchy!

Chapter 186

“Now then… it’s been a long time since I met Jenna. I should go see her. It’s about time I paid some attention to the matters of the organization I joined long ago.”

His eyes turned serious as he contemplated his next course of action. Earlier, he had been hesitant to make a move, but now he felt confident in his abilities to act.

He needed to restore his abyss energy, and for that, he would have to venture outside the clan. He might as well seek Jenna’s assistance in the meantime.

“So… you have finally decided to show up?”

In a luxurious room, a woman with great curves sat cross-legged, her arms folded under her ample chest as she looked at the little boy who had grown since the last time she saw him.

Oliver saw her piercing eyes and shook his head. She was as strong as ever; her espera glowed like a miniature sun, as vast as a mountain. The sheer intensity of her aura pressed down on him, like standing in the shadow of a giant.

She was probably on par with Alison or even stronger than her, at least in terms of espera.

This observation stirred a mix of respect and caution in Oliver.

He was always curious what such a person was doing in the Mystic Purge Clan and how they had allowed such a powerful outsider to remain with them for so long. Did she act behind the scenes?

Jenna noticed his blank expression and smirked. She had naturally been informed by her subordinates about his departure and untimely return.

Her smirk was a knowing one, reflecting the information she had gleaned about recent events.

Just a bit of digging allowed her to learn some interesting details about how he and the other heirs from the major clans had clashed with the heretics of the Unholy Sun Sect.

“Why would heretics from the Unholy Sun Sect target you kids? As far as I know, they aren’t ones to actively seek death by offending five major clans at once.” Her question hung in the air, demanding an answer Oliver wasn’t sure he had.

She stroked her chin as she asked him with keen eyes, “There must be something they desperately wanted from you kids. Hmm?”

Oliver was secretly impressed by her sharp intuition. To be able to deduce such a thing among so many possibilities, he had to admire her ability.

Jenna looked at him for a moment before letting out a mysterious smile. “Intuition, maybe?”

“Haha…” Oliver laughed nervously. “Perhaps. I’m not sure of their plans either way.”

“Is that so?” She raised a brow at his behavior and leaned back in her chair.

“Putting that aside, are you interested in improving your rank within the organization now?” She picked up a document as she asked him.

“That’s right. I was hoping to leave the clan for a while and focus on my position, starting now,” he nodded. His voice was steady, masking the inner turmoil of his decision.

“Why the sudden interest?” she asked without looking up. Her tone was casual, but Oliver sensed the underlying curiosity.

“Well, I just feel that being in the clan won’t benefit me at the moment. Despite being allocated resources, it feels like it’s not enough right now.”

“Do you think so? After all, we’re talking about one of the five major clans. You could try to improve your clan rank too. With the resources and natural advantage you have as an heir, you’re bound to grow stronger either way.”

Jenna said as she flipped through the documents one by one.

“Ah, well, I feel more inclined toward this right now, so I want to proceed with that.” Oliver didn’t explain much and simply told her.

Jenna finally put down the documents on her desk and looked at him seriously.

“I don’t mind. As your superior, I should normally be encouraging you to take missions. However, your circumstances are special, and that’s why I need proper clarifications beforehand. But since you’ve made up your mind, I won’t stop you.”

She paused, observing him intently. Her piercing stare made him twitch slightly in his seat, as if she was boring a hole through him.

“You seem to have undergone significant changes as well. Suddenly gaining such a large amount of espera despite being born ‘talentless.’ You seem to have quite deep secrets,” she judged.

“We all have our secrets, don’t we?” Oliver retorted playfully, making her raise a brow.

“Indeed. We all do,” she said with a bewitching smile as she leaned forward. “But not all of us have the strength to protect those secrets…”

Oliver looked her in the eyes, trying to understand the meaning behind her enigmatic words, but alas, she concealed herself too well.

“Anyway, I’ll brief you about the system in the Black Codex Federation.”

“The Black Codex Federation is a vast organization, with its influence and power on par with a major clan of its own. It operates from various places, having branches in almost all cities or towns of the human territory. Not only that, its influence extends into the demon world as well.”

“The organization has resources that exorcists would die for, and with resources, the organization naturally has wealth unlike any other. We can even boast of having wealth greater than some clans.”

“Climbing higher in the organization would naturally provide you with the corresponding benefits and incentives. The organizational ranking is pretty simple. It starts from the ‘Baron’ rank and moves up to the ‘Emperor’ rank. Pretty simple, right?”

Oliver interrupted her and asked, “So, the organization follows the basic aristocratic rank system for their members?”

“Yes, you got that right. The greater your rank, the more power you can exercise and the more benefits you will enjoy,” she nodded.

“What benefits, for example?” he wondered. U//ppTodat𝒆d fr/𝒐/m nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)/m

“Well, there are plenty of them. For example, the hierarchy in the organization is quite strict, and you must listen to your superiors, those with a higher rank than you. You will have the power to command and mobilize those below you in rank. The bases we have all over the world will likewise function in the same manner; the higher your rank at that base, the more control you have.”
