"It is. Why? Is he here?"
Bri looks around the room in a startled manner, spreading out her aura, but it doesn't reach as far as mine, so I reply by pointing at the wall nearest to the street.
"Not yet, we still have a few minutes before he arrives. Why is this such a big deal? I've seen him meet with you here before and it wasn't an issue to have me in the room."
She replies.
"This isn't just a casual sibling meetup. Rodrigo is coming to do the Association's monthly logged checkup. I advise you leave right now if you'd like to remain dead in their eyes. He'll be bringing a recording device with him. This meeting is meant to be unannounced, but he gives me a heads up when the dates get closer."
I open a spatial magic portal in response, letting the luminite in containment and book outlining its intended use into my item storage while standing to my feet.
"In that case, I hope you don't mind if I borrow this."
She nods and turns to her desk to begin organizing things and making sure no evidence of us meeting is left behind.
I continue to scan the A-Rank hunter walking our way and decide to examine the odd readings on his status again while I still have an opportunity to look at them.
The first thing I check are his skills, if I remember correctly he had light magic just like Bri, as well as a unique skill.
_______________
Respawn [i]
Combat Magic [Advanced Light Summoning]
_______________
At his level, he definitely has enough PP to upgrade these skills, but hasn't had the chance to do so it seems.
There are miscellaneous 100-200% stat boosting items on him, and a large blue diamond-shaped recording crystal just like the ones Lith gave me floats around him in a slow-moving circle as he walks through the streets.
At the bottom of his active item readings I see that he still is bonded with 4 demon cores just like I remember.
However, when looking at their readings, one looks a bit out of place.
_______________
[Arch Demon's Core] +150% All Stats
[Greater Demon's Core] +50% All Stats
[Greater Demon's Core] +50% All Stats
[Greater Demon's Core] +50% All Stats
_______________
His Arch Demon's core feels slightly more dense than my own, and the stat reading on it reads like it's been combined with a Greater Demon's Core. There is no better explanation for its additional 50% stat buff and increased density.
This would be the most intriguing reading if my eye didn't catch his buff's sheet too.
_______________
[Hand of the Illusionist]
[Ultimate Attack Form of the Light Warrior]
[The Sun God's Curse Mark]
_______________
His first two buffs look like interesting ranked up buffs granted for reaching level 500 and 1000, but the 3rd buff on his status looks very familiar.
My eyes widen while reading it, so much so that I walk closer to the wall nearest to the street and expand my perceptions range further to get a perfect visual of him and my suspicions come true.
