Chapter 174: Ding Dong Ditch
It wasn't until he got onto an elevator that Lake realized he might not get anything done today if he didn't do what the mission said because he might end up in a place without any Demon Worshipers; like what had happened yesterday. He didn't want that to happen because then he would only have the mission Masters had just given him, and he didn't think he would get lucky enough to get another assignment where he would be alone again.
He still had hope there would be some Demon Worshipers around once he got down there though, because why were the people he was looking for taking so long if it didn't have anything to do with the Demon Worshipers. He was going to be pretty mad if it turned out these people were just wasting time not doing their jobs.
...
After about twenty minutes Lake arrived at the 15th tier and stepped off to see a city much larger and fleshed out compared to the one he had been in yesterday. That was fine with him though because it gave him more of an excuse if Masters thought he had taken too much time when getting back.
Making sure to set his Detector to find Demon Worshipers, Lake started to head into the city in a spiral fashion, like yesterday. After a while Lake passed a building and its basement lit up with a few lights. Lake couldn't help but smile seeing this because it meant he had something to do that was important enough to blow his actual mission off.
He didn't plan to just rush inside though. He wanted to find the group he was here for first to see what they were doing. If he was lucky they would already be doing something similar to what he was doing, and hopefully with a real plan already laid out that he could just join them.
It wouldn't actually gain him anything if he just ran inside and killed these few Demon Worshipers. It would actually probably hurt their chances at figuring out what they were doing here in the Metal Domain because it's almost impossible to get information out of dead people.
Setting his Detector to look for the members of the 17th team, Lake started to run again in a big spiral. After a while Lake finished looking over the whole city and found nothing. He didn't know if this meant they had already left or they were dead, so he switched the Detector to look for their corpses and continued his search.
Passing the house where he had seen the Demon Worshipers earlier, Lake saw the lights again and realized he had already found where they were to begin with and he had to go inside to see what had happened to them. Turning on his Mana Vision Lake looked down and saw there were quite a few sources of mana more than the amount of Demon Worshipers. He took that to mean he would be finding a large amount of corpses once he got down there.
Lake was about to break in and try to sneak down so he could hear what the Demon Worshipers were doing but remembered there was most likely going to be an alarm that Mute didn't work on, like the last house he tried to break into. That meant his best bet was to just knock on the door.
If just one of them came upstairs and opened it Lake could just kill them, and if he was able to do so without alerting the others, he could disguise himself as them and use Play The Part to blend in. It was likely that this plan would fail though, but it was still his best idea.
Knocking on the door, Lake could see that more than one of the people in the basement started to come upstairs so he knew his plan had already started to diverge from the best case scenario. He would now most likely have to kill three people to get inside and there was no way the others wouldn't notice only one of the three returned downstairs. So instead of dealing with this, Lake ran away. The chapters is up by N0vEI__bin
Lake's new plan was to just keep knocking until only one of them bothered to open the door. Lake had no problem wasting some time doing this because he found it kind of funny to mess with them until he got the result he wanted. After a while Lake saw the three that had come to open the door head back downstairs and he went and knocked again.
Once he saw that three were coming towards the door again he ran and hid like he had done last time. It took longer for them to go downstairs again but eventually they did and Lake ran over and knocked again. As soon as he did he saw a bunch of them start to run up the stairs so he got away from the door and hid.

Lake wasn't particularly happy that his Intelligence had gone up by so much; so he went ahead and switched his job to Spearman so he wouldn't end up gaining anymore if he ended up fighting the other Demon Worshipers that were here. With that done Lake went ahead and looked at his two new skills.
Earth Control (R) Lv.1
Increases affinity for Earth to Low.
Stone Flesh (R) Lv.1
Endurances effect is increased by 10% when mana is full.
Seeing this Stone Flesh skill, Lake wondered if this would be a good candidate for him to change in the future because with an effect like that he could easily make it much stronger if he was to just change a few words. "Rol why have you come back already?" Lake looked up from his skills, doing his best to see what was going on past his eyes and heard a voice come from his body to answer the question.
"It was just a kid." Lake was happy to see his body say what he was sure the person he was pretending to be thought to be the truth because they had died with that being what they had thought. "You got rid of them?" Lake could tell his identity had become slightly confused when it was asked this question, but it eventually nodded.
Lake found the way the identity was acting kind of strange but when he thought about the way Play The Part's description was written it made sense. The identity was acting exactly how someone who couldn't remember what had happened would in a situation like this and his expectation for it to just lie its way through this interaction had been wrong.
"Ok, come help us then." Lake felt his head nod and saw himself start to walk deeper into the basement. It didn't take too long for him to get his eyes on what he assumed were the group he had been sent for and he couldn't help but wonder how they had ended up dead in a basement with no one outside noticing.
