I am an Eldritch Entity-Chapter 133 : Knowing where the direction leads
Eryndor glanced at all the bodies they had rounded up.
"Our points increased by a lot." Edward heartily laughed.
He had no idea what was going on in Eryndor's mind. He was just happy to get this unexpected and easy windfall of points.
Valentina glanced at her own phone.
"It seems we get seventy five percent of the points possessed by the person we defeat. I just got five thousand points all of a sudden."
Eryndor looked at her. "How do you know how many points these people originally had to deduce that you got seventy five percent?"
Valentina displayed him the screen of her phone.
Valentina - 3450 + 5000 (75% of the loser's points)
"I don't, the percentage stolen is written beside my name here on the website which counts for points. It only appears when you defeat a person I guess.
"It also cannot be viewed by anyone else. They would just see a sudden jump in my points."
Eryndor had a look of realization. He didn't have the habit of fighting with any items, especially his phone, on his body.
More often than not, he kept them in his bag, so he didn't know how many points he had gained.
Edward chuckled while gazing at his own phone's screen and said.
"Look at the group chat, our members are going ballistic."
Eryndor shifted closer to Valentina and peaked at her screen.
Drakarion: "Holy shit, how did three of you suddenly get such a huge increase in your points?"
Syndra: "Did the three of you find some hidden rule? Does this have something to do with other students?"
Paulina: "Defeating them I guess? I can't think of anything else."
If Eryndor had a phone in his hand at this point, he would have undoubtedly mocked Drakarion for being dumb. Look, these two young women already figured it out.
He soon saw Valentina typing a response and sending it on the group chat.
Valentina: "You have it correct. We defeated a team which was pursuing Eryndor.
"Me and Edward happened to be close, so we helped him out."
Edward: "It was kind of easy after we came to help, they didn't even have a single level two among them. They also didn't expect Eryndor to have helpers nearby haha."

On a second thought, not every second year senior was a genius, or had a high level.
Breaking through between realms was extremely difficult. Majority of the second years were still in the first level of their power systems.
The group likely had one of those second year students acting with them.
Drakarion: "It's always Eryndor with all the trouble around him." [Taunting emoji]
The group shared a laugh before it went silent, with new information in their heads.
Edward looked at his juniors who were silent, and said.
"Alright, there's nothing else I am needed for, I believe?"
Eryndor shook his head.
"Thanks a lot, senior. If something comes up I may have to trouble you once again though."
Edward chuckled.
"That's exactly why the second years are here for, don't worry. I'll keep updating my location on the group chat, so be nearby if you think there's going to be more trouble."
Eryndor nodded, "Noted."
After both of them watched Edward leave their sights, Eryndor turned to Valentina and asked.
"Did you use Cognitive Scrying on them?"
He asked this because he had already scanned through their memories, being nearby, Valentina should've been able to copy the ability as well.
What he had found was indeed as he had expected, someone had asked these people to force him in that certain direction.
If the task was completed, each of them would be rewarded generously. Eryndor almost drooled hearing about those rewards in the memory.
Who could have been capable of being so generous? Was it a member of the Human Federation? A high ranking one perhaps?
The person who had issued this task had undertaken no measures to hide their face, but Eryndor couldn't recognise who the person was.
He had a faint suspicion that the person might just be a middle man who was instructed to do the task of passing on the message to these students.
Valentina shook her head to the question Eryndor asked.
"I just wanted it in case the battle proved to be tough, but it wasn't. I was easily able to knock them unconscious. Do you want me to use it on them now?"
He simply shrugged.
"I already used it on all of them, you'll get the same results I did.
"I don't really want to hide it from you either, someone sent them after me after promising them rewards.
"You also know about my abnormally high sensing range. They were able to track me without any tracking or surveillance mechanisms on them.
"This part is weird as well. How could they track me without any means? Or could it be something else entirely? One which we have no knowledge of yet?"
Valentina furrowed her brows when she heard that.
"We'll ask Drakarion and Paulina about it later."
Eryndor nodded when he heard her suggestion.
Indeed, those two were knowledgeable about a lot of things, but it wasn't appropriate to talk about this in the group chat.
It was better if they discussed this after meeting in the secret realm.
As he went into thought, Valentina followed up with another question.
"Who was it that instructed them to go after you?"
Eryndor shook his head.
"I don't know. I mean, I saw his face in the memory of these people, but there was no mention of his name on the shirt or anything. The students didn't call him anything apart from 'Sir'.
"That person only told them my publicly exposed level and instructed them to force me towards that direction."
Eryndor didn't see any point in hiding it. He pointed his hand towards a certain direction while speaking.
Valentina followed his hand to look at the direction before furrowing her brows.
Eryndor looked at her and asked,
"Do you happen to know what is in that direction?"
She answered with a bit of hesitation.
"It leads to the Abyss."
