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
Many things happened since I arrived here. Coincidentally meeting Elena which leads me to be associated with the royal family of the Narva Kingdom. And then the struggles started and continue. Joined the war, won the war, and visit the Ruel Empire.But all of this is now in the past. Things will be good from now on. I will be able to enjoy my long-awaited rest for a whole month!So that’s what I thought but what is the meaning of this? Why am I in a ball? And after the party, why was I called again into this meeting room inside the royal palace of the Narva kingdom? It’s been more than a week since he left the Ruel Empire and Auburn City.After solidifying the plan with the new emperor, the delegation left the Empire and head back to Auburn City.Jin and his friends stay for a couple of days in the city before leaving. They also officially invited Mayor Lester under the order of the Crown Prince to strengthen the relationship between the kingdom and the city.But as expected, when he
After clarifying things about the request for the tournament to be held in the Narva Kingdom, the Crown Prince tried to ask Jin which the latter didn’t expect.The usual calm atmosphere turned to annoyance.“I’ve heard that the Ruel Empire’s new emperor is keen on befriending you.”His lips twitch a little due to remembering Tristan and Marion who keep mentioning that he is the descendant of the hero every time they found an opportunity. It seems the knights who were tasked to guard the delegation are the source of his information, Jin thought to himself.His lips twitching didn’t escape the sharp eyes of the Crown Prince and His Majesty.Jin only smiles and didn’t respond which made the Crown Prince continue.“Well, we know that you will only ignore them due to your personality. We trusted you and we are grateful for your contributions but I’ve also heard that you are indeed the descendant of the previous hero. Is that true?”His smile vanished from his face and was replaced by annoy
