Two days passed quickly.The crown prince sent his farewell and return with half of his guard.The construction in the city is going smoothly. Jin gives some proper advice and tools that can quicken their pace.He told Mayor Lester not to rely too much on the power of magic. Apparently, magicians are commonly hired as constructions in rebuilding walls and other important places in one’s kingdom. They used magic to lift heavy objects and others.It is okay, but they rely too much on magic which gives imbalance in how things should be.So he talked to Mayor Lester and advised him to halt the reconstruction for two hours. He proposed to hire the citizen to build and continue the reconstruction. With that, the citizen can be paid and buy their necessity. The magicians will still help if the citizen wasn’t able to lift heavy objects.In that, the economy will move as it is.Mayor Lester agreed and release the order on the spot.At first, many complained but when Mayor Lester explain everyt
When the three carriages carrying the emblem of Auburn City were nowhere to be seen. The people standing nearby who are trying to enter the capital city exploded and start talking with each other like they know each other well. The truth is, they are all strangers. It just happened that they heard something incredible.How did the empire lose?If they were looking for a steward, it means the emperor went to war and unfortunately, died.And why is Lord Seth accompanying them?Many questions and unclear answers reverberate at the entrance of the capital city of the Ruel Empire.The captain that oversees the entrance woke up from dazed and start ordering the knights under him to close the gate for the time being.Regarding those people who heard it, he didn’t know what to do so he just let them be. Waiting from the outside.Although he was stern, he cannot bring himself to kill all those who heard the very confidential information. The best course of action is to inform the royal place a
Inside the meeting room, only Lord Seth and Marion Felt remain. The atmosphere return to a calm one.“Do you think you’ve gone far?”“Hmm. Yeah. I think I’ve gone too far but can you blame me? I at least want to experience the power of being on the top. But I think it’s needed. Knowing those foxes and wolves, they will surely attack when I am not observing them. So it is better to have them leashed as soon as possible.”“That’s true but still. We took one life.”Then Marion looks at the ground where the lifeless body of a government official lies there.“That one deserved it. I cannot tolerate his evil anymore. If I only was born with a core and able to absorb mana, then I will secretly kill him while he was asleep.”“So what’s the plan of that young man called Jin Hale?”Lord Seth takes a seat and answers Marion.“I don’t know too. He is too secretive but a wise one. He does not act rashly and thinks about his action plan. It’s too much for me to say but I doubt that he would run out
After signing the official documents. No claps or no congratulatory messages were heard.Instead, the party was shaken to see the sudden appearance of three silhouettes. Even Jin and Lord Seth were surprised. Upon entering the room, everyone activated their mana sense but they were surprised they didn’t detect any presence.But Lord Seth was able to pull his surprise and unsheathed his sword. He ready himself to fight for life. If these three can hide their presence entirely, it means they are from the strongest clan of assassins.At the current time. There are two powerhouse clans in the world of assassins. The Dusk Assassin and Owl Assassin.Dusk Assassin Clan are known that can hide their presence completely. They boast this ability because even Sia cannot detect them. It is a perfect skill for an assassin. While the Own Assassin boasts their speed in the assassination.The two powerhouses are always at each other throats. Small fights between weak assassins often occur between th
Oh, fuck! I missed the coronation! Jin cannot help but softly mutter.Fortunately, no one is around that time so he was not worried someone heard him curse. Jin started to walk, he needed to inquire Marion about something.When the crown prince arrives, the citizens gather in the streets with joy and shouted the crown prince’s name. The news of the emperor’s death is already spread so the government didn’t exhaust their effort to stop the news from spreading. Instead under the official order of the steward, Marion Felt, the government issued a gathering and tell the citizen that their emperor died in battle.Many were shocked and terrified while some just shrugged their shoulder. The news of the death of the emperor also spread to the neighboring free states and nations.Many nations and free states in the central continent who were wary of the Ruel empire heaved a sigh of relief while the Vitalis kingdom and the empire of other allied nations raise their security to its maximum.The
"Are you out of your mind?!”Marion’s angry and loud voice reverberates!Marion Felt is known as a carefree and timid person. He didn’t let anyone see him lose control of his temper.But right now upon reading what was written in the paper loses whatever control that regulates his temper.He stood up and angrily talk to Jin.“That cannot be done! This is impossible! And how did you even think of it?”Jin figured out Marion's reaction so he just sits there like everything is normal.“Relax. I know it’s absurd but it is doable.”“Absurd?! This is beyond absurd! How ridiculous you can be? No one has ever done it before! Whatever you’re planning, better not pursue it. That is for everyone’s good.”Marion explained and is ever ready to decline his request. But Jin is persistent.“As I have said, this is doable. Besides long are you going to pretend?”Marion furrowed.“Pretend? What do you mean pretend?”“Pretend like you never care about the empire. Ever since the responsibility was transf
Jin throws himself on the bed inside the room that was prepared solely for him. He didn’t even know when Marion stop telling him the story or how long he has been talking thinking he was immersed in the details. He just heard Marion calling him multiple times and was about to shake his shoulder if he didn’t respond soon.When he heard about the demon beasts crying nonstop for the whole day, it was then Jin knew something more terrifying is about to happen if it is not left unchecked. The creation of a dark horde!Jin who was gifted with power along with limited memories and vast knowledge helped him the reason why the demon beasts are crying nonstop is that the demon race is trying to enhance the power of the demon beasts and then manipulate them. If successful, the dark horde that was only a myth in the past might happen in this era.Before the first great war, when the demon king is preparing for a large-scale invasion. He once pursue one of the plans presented to him by one of his
Jin wakes up and gets up from his bed.He felt energized and frankly, he was quite adamant to get up from his bed. He still wants to laze around but if he really wants to laze around in the long run, he must get up and do his work.Work.Jin checks his appearance once again in the mirror before leaving the room.It is time. The most crucial part of the plan.Upon leaving the room. He was greeted by two guards. The two guards didn’t nod nor give him a salute but one of the guards exude an aura that is quite familiar to him.It is none other than Sigurd, the previous emperor of the Ruel Empire.Before they departed from Auburn City, he already told Sigurd about the plan. So the latter know what to do without giving orders once they enter the empire. Normally, the delegation’s guard cannot enter the palace. But since it was Sigurd, so Jin is not concerned that Sigurd will fail his task.His pace is not fast nor slow but rather dignified. If Bea and Robert who knew his origin saw him, the
