Chapter 174: He Is Yato!

-Knock, -Knock, -knock!

"Come in"

-Click!

Hearing Lillian's voice Adrian went inside of conference room of the mansion.

He doesn't know why his classroom teacher asked him to come here but since he was asked he is here.

There were three people inside of room, Instantly, Adrian recognized one of the three people. Lillian Ashburn his class tutor.

She looked worn out. Her hair was a mess and her expression was that of utter defeat. It looked as though she had just come back from a tough battle.

Looking at her expression, although Adrian didn't know what had happened, he couldn't help but feel a trace of pity for her…

Next to her, a tall muscular man with a bald head and sunglasses indifferently glanced at his surroundings. There was this sort of regal feeling coming from him. Almost as if he were a massive lion that ruled over an expansive territory.

Although for the most part, his face was indifferent, from time to time, Adrian was able to notice him clicking his tongue in the direction of the last person.

Standing in front of them, was a young woman with dark blue hair.

From appearances alone, she looked to be very young but not everything is based on appearance. Her skin was crisp and pleasant.

"Ah!"

Noticing Adrian, Elise's eyes excitedly looked in Adrian's direction.

"You must be Adrian"

Confused, Kevin confirmed before asking

"…yes, you are?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere around him froze.

Be it Lillian or the muscular guy. Both of them stared at Adrian in utter shock. How did he not know the identity of the girl in front of him? Especially since she is a very popular Heroes on Earth at the moment…Just how out of touch with the world did someone have to be to not even be able to recognize her?

Taken aback for a second, a trace of a smile soon appeared on Elise's face

"Wow, this is a first. Someone who doesn't know me…how interesting"

Confused, Adrian looked in Lillian's direction. Facepalming, Lillian said.

"Hero-rank 107, world rank 311, Elise Jeffrey"

"oh…"

"Anyway just here for a moment, they have something to ask you."

Nodding at Lillian Adrian sits in front of Elise. Now he turned his attention back to Elise and asked

"So what did you call me here for?"

Calmly drinking a cup of tea, Elise briefly glanced at Adrian before softly mumbling to herself

"…so handsome"

"Excuse me?"

Covering her mouth and realizing her mistake, Elise looked away from Adrian.

"Oops…keummm…keummm I meant it's hot in here"

Letting out a dry cough as though she was embarrassed, Elise took something out from her pocket and handed it to Adrian

Glancing at what was in Elias's, Adrian saw a black card decorated with fine silver patterns. Taking the card, Adrian looked at the fine print on the card.

[World Government, Senior executive member, Elise Jeffrey]

Seeing Adrian accept the card, Elsie smiled and said

"Let's keep it short, would you be interested in joining the world government after you graduate from the Nova?"

"Ah, so this was what this was about…"

Playing with the business card in his hands for a couple of seconds, Adrian soon gave it back

"Eh? Student Adrian? I think you don't understand what's going on here. Me, ranked 107 on the hero ranking, Elise Jeffrey is interested in you"

"I'm thankful for your interest, but I'm sorry, I'm not planning on joining the world government"

With that, Adrian stood up and made his way towards the door.

"Hey you, what do y-"

"What do you think you are doing?"

Just as Jack is about to stop Adrian, A new male voice stops him.

Adrian's footsteps as he heard that voice, turning his head back toward the source of the voice Adrian saw a very handsome man with silver-white hair with blue eyes standing beside Jack.

Jack's face turned white as paper as he felt Yato standing beside him.

"I'm S-Sorry S-Sir." Saying that Jack took his seat and seat down on it.

"Are You by any chance-"

-Knock, -Knock, -knock!

Just as Adrian was about to complete his sentence knocking sound could heard on the door.

"Come in," Lillian said and the sound of the door opening could be heard.

-Click!

A boy with golden hair and deep green forest eyes walked inside the room, the boy was wearing a black colour hoodie and black baggy pants there was a broad expression on the young man's face but when he saw Adrian coming inside of room his expression changed.

"What are you doing here, Adrian?" the young man asked Adrian.

"I could asked you the same thing Lucas, why are you here?"

"Ah! Me? Well, Miss Lillian called me here." Lucas said as he pointed toward Lillian who just nodded in return.

"What do you need me for Miss Lillian? I was sleeping when your call came so I have to rush as soon as possible."

Lillian sighed and closed her eyes for a moment before opening them, Lillian pointed her left hand toward Yato and said

"This gentleman here wants to meet you, His name is Yato, you must heard of him."

Nodding his head a couple of times Lucas said, "No, never heard him."

This time shock was double the amount when Adrian said that he didn't know Elise.

Be it Adrian, Lillian, Elise or Jack. Every one of them stared at Lucas in utter shock. How did he not know the identity of the man in front of him?

-Tap, -Tap, -Tap!

Adrian went toward and grabbed him by his shoulder and shook Lucas's entire body for a moment "Lucas are sure you are not living under a rock are you?"

"What do you-"

"He is Yato! He is the only Hero out there in the world that could defy orders from the world government! He is considered the strongest hero in the world and maybe the top 5 Hero in the world outcome close to him in strength and you know what the fun fact is? He has not joined any guild, Hunter Association or Hero Assossion and even so he is the most famous hero out there in the world-"

"Hahaha."

Before Adrian could complete what he wanted a say Yato laughed, he laughed so hard that Adrian had to stop himself.

Now everyone including Lucas gaze landed on Yato's laughing figure. A few moments later when Yato stopped laughing, his blue eyes glowed as his gaze landed on Lucas.

"Good, Very good, you are amusing, Lucas."

Lucas felt chills down his spine as he heard Yato's words.

'Now what kind of problem I'm?' Lucas couldn't help but think so.
