Chapter 2187
Nicole clicked on a link, bringing her to The Hunter web, whereupon the mission interface appeared. It was a little different than it was before. Before this, Nicole had only accepted missions. This interface, on the other hand, was for sending missions out.
Soon, after creating a new nickname for herself, effectively making her untraceable, Nicole posted the search for the five crests. She was wise enough to not post directly under the Crest Forum. After all, it would be too direct, and everyone could easily guess it right off the bat and ultimately, know it was related to her.
'Who would let anyone know that the Fire Crest is in my hands? Who would even bother with the reward at this point when they can come right at me.'
After the post had been uploaded, Nicole switched her computer off. She was very well aware that it was a challenging task for anyone to take on. Indeed, she was just testing her luck, as her options were pretty much limited.
'Instead of waiting, I guess the better way to do it is to think of other alternatives,’ she thought.
"It's going to be hard to find." Jared's voice blared out from behind.
Jared saw Nicole's post on the mission interface and immediately knew that Nicole was on the search for the Fire
Crest. Back when Jared was searching for Nicole, he had used the Fire Crest as a marker to search for her, knowing that Nicole had it in her possession. Finding the Fire Crest would be equivalent to finding Nicole. However, none of them both could be found, for there were no leads to begin with. Hence, it became a never-ending cycle for Jared.
"We can't give up like this," Nicole sighed.
'I have to get it back no matter what,' she thought.
Jared sat down next to Nicole. "What made you think of finding the Fire Crest out of the blue? Was it the treatment today that made you recall something about it?"
"No.' Nicole shook her head. "Steve told me all about it earlier."
Upon hearing it, Jared's eyes darkened for a moment. 'It might be quite the issue if I must be honest. Everything can remain as it is, even if she can't regain her memories.
However, all of these revelations would be too much for her to accept.'
"Let's look for it slowly. I'm sure you'll be able to get your answers." Jared said, not pressuring her by asking what she could recall from her treatment earlier.
