Parallel Memory

After that, he tried to move and speak the way Jester spoke. He was practicing not to make any mistakes when in front of other Dark Guild members.

After all, he had to stay with them for several days or maybe months. He can't be found out just after taking Jester's place.

So, to see whether he could pull this off or not, he headed to the pub.

He walked with confidence, mimicking the way Jester moved and spoke, so as not to raise any suspicions.

As he approached, the man looked up and nodded in recognition.

"Ah, Jest you are back! The key to your room is here!"

The man said, leading Zero to a back room. Jest was kind of a nickname for Jester.

Zero followed, his heart racing with excitement and apprehension. He was relieved that at least the restaurant did not seem to find him suspicious.

As they entered the room, Zero's eyes scanned the surroundings, taking note of the exits and any potential threats. The man sat down at a desk and motioned for Zero to do the same.

"Boss, how was your hunt?"

The man asked, looking at Zero expectantly.

Zero took a deep breath and began to speak, careful to maintain his disguise and not reveal his true identity.

"It was normal. Nothing out of the ordinary."

The man listened attentively.

"I believe that Boss Jester will achieve the goal and you can have your revenge on those guys at headquarters... "

Zero just listened to the restaurant owner and nodded slightly. He was able to obtain some kind of information about Jester through him.

According to what he heard from the restaurant owner, Jester appeared to be dissatisfied with him being sent to this remote area. His move to this office seems to have been prompted by some kind of bullies at headquarters.

Therefore, Jester was always training and trying to get stronger to get his revenge. The restaurant owner also seemed to be close to Jester as he knew about this.

However, the restaurant owner obviously was trying to flatter Jester as he was significantly stronger and was in a higher position.

The restaurant owner politely opened the door for Zero. There was a hidden room inside the back room of the restaurant just as Zero thought.

The restaurant owner went back after they had reached the area where the Dark Guild operates and also where there is a resting area for them.

Conveniently, the resting rooms all had their names outside. So, he wouldn't need to spend time figuring out which room was his.

"Good evening, Leader."

"Good evening, Boss." …

As Zero predicted previously, Jester was the boss of this branch and others didn't go out of there to speak to him other than greeting him occasionally. Therefore, it was kind of relieving since even if he acted out of normal, they would not really question him.

As Zero walked into the room, Zero's mind raced with plans and strategies for gathering more information. He had successfully infiltrated the Dark Guild branch, and he was determined to use this opportunity to its fullest.

The room that he had been in was very big for one person but that just goes to show how a boss is treated there. However, despite the large room, there were not many things there.

Zero went through the whole room as he searched for any secret information that he could get. However, there was no such thing as a secret letter or anything that was hidden. Though there was a computer which Zero was sure had some important information.

-TYPE! -TYPE!

"Password?"

Though before he could have access to all the information that was lying on the computer, Zero first needed to know Jester's password.

-TYPE! -TYPE!

However, who was Zero? He was the one who brought a lot of technological advancement to this world using his Earth's memory. It was not very hard to hack such a computer that does not even have two-factor authentication or any complex encryption.

"Done!"

After 10 minutes, Zero successfully managed to get into his computer.

-CLICK!

After that, he browsed through all his files. And as Zero thought, much of the information and communication Jester did with the Dark Guild headquarters was all there. With Jester's position, he seemed to have access to much of the important information about the Dark Guild.

There was one website that seemed to be for only Dark Guild. All kinds of information can be obtained from this information. As Rank-A, Jester's account has many privileges and access permission on this website.

Through this website, Zero could see many of their plans. Even the places that they are planning to attack next.

Zero went through his history and tried to get as much information as possible. He stayed like this until it was 3:00 AM. He realized that he should get proper rest before continuing in the morning.

******

He woke up late as a result of staying late. However, no one came to disturb him even though he had slept for so long. Guess it is a perk of being a boss.

In any case, he washed his face before going for breakfast or lunch.

As soon as he came out of his room, he was greeted by people who had spotted him. He would occasionally nod or sometimes even that he wouldn't do. It didn't seem that they mind that even if Zero ignored them.

"Good Morning, leader! What would you like to eat?"

The restaurant owner asked. He didn't seem suspicious that Jester/Zero came out late and didn't dare to ask the reason for coming out late. For people like him who are just subordinates, it is better to just do everything that they are asked and not ask anything unnecessary.

As Jester was a person of high ranking, they know that Jester has lots of things to do that were secret to them. They would only do things when they were commanded by their superiors.

"The usual!"

Zero answered. He had stalked Jester previously and knew what kind of answer he would give, especially when asked what he wanted to ask.

"Right away!"

The restaurant owner replied as he quickly went to bring a plate full of prawns and crabs. Zero ate the meal and found it quite tasty. In spite of the fact that he doesn't like seafood much and prefers vegetables, he didn't hate the food that was served to him.

After eating, he planned to head back and explore the information that was on Jester's computer.

"I will be in the room today. Don't let anyone disturb me unless it is an important matter!"

Zero said to the restaurant owner.

The restaurant owner nodded obediently and replied

"Of course, leader. Your wish is my command. If anyone asks, I'll tell them that you're not available."

The restaurant owner thought that Jester was doing something confidential that might be related to the Dark Guild headquarters plan. Their supreme leader clearly was planning something large, so he assumed Jester was being called for that reason.

In any case, even if the reason wasn't that, he knew he had to obey Jester no matter what the reason was.

Zero went back after lunch. He was not in a rush as he knew that he would be here for a long time. He could take time to adjust to the place as he collected all the information he could.

"Raiding Aquarius Guild for the Water pendant… Killing Rank-A Irina… "

Zero read all the missions that were posted on the website for the Dark Guild. Many of the missions included Jester's name which meant that he participated in those events.

However, the most important information that he was able to get from this website in Dark Guild was to attack Seraphine's training ground. The mission objective was also given which was to capture all the students there which also included Hiro.

Most importantly, he was also one of the participants in that attack. What should he say about it? Good luck or bad luck? In c

Anyway, it seemed that it would be easier for Zero to infiltrate the Dark Guild Headquarters than he thought. Before attacking, all the members had to gather at the headquarters and the date was one week.

Which meant that in about one or two days, Jester would have actually gone to headquarters. Luckily, Zero was able to kill and replace Jester before that happened. Or else he wouldn't have gotten the opportunity again.

"Hmmm… "

He scrolled through the members that were included in that group. One Rank-S and almost 10 Rank-A members with many Rank-B were in the attacking group.

"Frey!"

Zero was surprised to find Frey's name on the list. She was appointed as the leader of the group. Zero knew who that person was and also saw her in person.

It was not a good memory and if possible he wouldn't want to meet her. Though for his objective, it didn't seem that he could avoid her for now.
