Chapter 315: Chapter 315: Trapping Devourer



"She is back?" His eyes narrowed at the thought. There was no denying it. Even though he didn\'t see her return, this aura was undeniably hers.

He could also feel the spatial restrictions around the Academy becoming a lot stronger suddenly, her intentions being as clear as it could be.

The aura was unmistakable-it belonged to someone he had hoped to avoid for as long as possible. Someone powerful enough to disrupt his meticulously laid plans, especially since everything wasn\'t in place yet.

There was another thing he was able to infer from her actions.

He wasn\'t too shocked by her sudden return as he hadn\'t known when she was planning to return in the first place. What gave her away was the strengthening of restrictions with her arrival as if she already knew that he was here.

\'How did she know that I was in the Academy? This is not good..." Although Eren had considered a myriad of possibilities, he didn\'t expect Mist to find his rough location so early.

If she had this ability, she should have already known that her daughter was in the Spirit Realm. It felt less like she could track her daughter and more like she could track her.

\'This is frustrating. If she can track me, then can I really return to the Demon Sect without exposing my identity?\'

As a myriad of questions filled his mind, Eren was at a loss of words. Had he really underestimated Mist? Despite his assumption making sense, he still felt that something was amiss.

It was as if he was missing a big piece of the puzzle that he couldn\'t put his finger on.

"How long until he is awake?" Eren asked the Ghost Queen.

....

In another place, Mist had returned to her office, immediately summoning the Academy Records to see the names of the people who had returned from the outside while she was away.

If Devourer had returned to the Academy, it was clear he would have disguised himself as one of them.

Since there were not many students who entered at that time due to lockdown, the number of people entering the academy was something that could only be counted with the fingers of two hands.

Amongst the names of the people who had entered, one name particularly stood out. It was the name that held the most weight as it was the only professor on the list who had returned from the outside.

It was even more special as there was the reason mentioned in front of the name which explained why that Professor had left the Academy in the first place.

"He left to investigate the death of another Professor? Moreover he returned alone with his team supposedly dead?" Mist\'s eyes narrowed as everything started making sense. "Could he make it any more obvious?"

If it wasn\'t for the fact that she knew about Eren\'s presence in the Academy, she wouldn\'t have thought much about this but now it was as clear as day.

She used her privilege to see the records of Professor Liyone\'s actions from the moment he returned to the Academy.

She saw him enter his office straight from the entrance. Because of the absence of any recording crystals in the office of a professor, she couldn\'t see what happened there.

Later, she saw the professor leave his office and wander aimlessly, making his actions even more suspicious. At this point, she had no doubt about the identity of Devourer. She had finally found the person.

Still, before pinpointing his exact location, she didn\'t take any actions. She didn\'t want to scare him before everything was ready.

She followed Eren\'s actions as he was taken to his class, only to come across Professor Axxel. Later, he went with Axxel, entering his office.

After that point, Axxel left the office and went straight for the Ghost Queen\'s lab.

While Liyone never left Axxel\'s office, Axxel didn\'t leave Ghost Queen\'s lab. Finally she knew the exact location of the two people of interest.

She waved her hand, appearing inside the officer of Axxel. She was the only one after Aster who could enter another Professor\'s office with such ease.

Inside the office, she searched around but she couldn\'t find Liyone anymore. There was only a faint scent of blood. It was evident that someone had died here.

She didn\'t believe that Axxel could kill Devourer and not brag about this. It was more like Axxel had already died and Devourer took his place, making his body disappear.

"I see. So you are in the Ghost Queen\'s lab." It only took her a few minutes but she had already located Eren, finding him to be in the Ghost Queen\'s lab.

She sent a message to the communication crystal of every Elder except the Ghost Queen, Axxel and Liyone. All of them were given only a single instruction, and that was to surround the Ghost Queen\'s lab as she was about to seal the entire area herself.

To not make the same mistake as last time, she even brought a treasure especially to seal the place. With that treasure around, no one could escape.

The entire Academy was in a mess suddenly as the Professors left their classes, telling students to not leave their classes.

Unfortunately, the news didn\'t reach the Ghost Queen\'s lab. She was completely unaware that she had been left out entirely, all because she came in contact with the person assumed to be Devourer.

....

"How long until he is awake?" Eren asked the Ghost Queen.

"Only ten more minutes. After that, it should finish," the Ghost Queen answered.

Eren could only frown in response, looking in a distant direction. "Ten minutes... I doubt we even have five…"
