Onyx remained silent after he heard what they have to say. He leaned on his seat and chuckled. He already knew about it but he was firm in finding the World Breaker because he was their priority. Once they found him, everyone around him would appear.
"That is inevitable. The World Breaker is a person who cannot work alone and he does have accomplices with him. No need to worry, once we determine the identity of the World Breaker, everything will fall in place," Onyx answered. He waved his hands with confidence that he could find the World Breaker and the priests were already preparing for the ritual to locate him.
"If that's the case, then we won't be bothering you any further. The Hero Association will stay alert and will tell you if we find anything." Acasia stood up and gave the holy knight a nod.
Since the man already knew about it, there was no reason for them to stay there any longer. They left the headquarters of the Justice of Light. Since they were already handling the matter and were aware of what was happening, there was not point in staying there any longer or reporting anything to them.
"That's it?" Evira stopped and placed both of his hands on her waist. She couldn't believe that they were just walking out.
"That's it. Let them handle it. We don't need to get involved with them any longer. That holy knight is not someone we can offend. I'm not even sure if he is human." Acasia looked back and at the floor where they just came from.
"I agree with the president. This matter isn't in our hands any longer. I myself don't want to get involved with this Justice of Light." Arcaine also agreed with the president.
He felt uncomfortable while talking with the holy knight. It was a feeling that crawls in your skin and gives you this feeling of unease. He couldn't pinpoint it but he could tell that the Justice of Light was bad news. The name sounds fancy but the person behind it wasn't someone nice.
They entered the carriage and left the headquarters. Acasia parted the curtain of the carriage and looked outside. He could already see people wearing white robes around the place and how the people were interacting with them.
"I heard that they even investigated the youngest young master of Ginehart. They were seen following him behind and observing his every move. They did this to all the people that they suspected as the World Breaker." Acasia let go of the curtain and looked at the two people with him.
"They are being thorough but are not afraid of offending people because the king is backing them." Evira frowned after her words.
From then on, the Hero Association stepped back and watched as the time progressed. The Justice of Light slowly became influential in the capital. The nobles did their best to establish a connection with the organization and take a hold of the information system they had.
After another month, the investigation on the World Breaker has gotten nowhere and Cygnus could only laugh. He had been silent for that period of time and stayed low as his forces were gathering their strength for his plan. He looked behind him and his people were busy playing cards inside his room.
He could tell that they were bored and they had nothing to do. These past few days they opted on staying in the manor and playing games since he had nothing to pass their time. Ezio and Isaiah had been learning magic and were making improvements in their skills at the Blackwell territory.
Cygnus also took this chance to visit General Linius who already reached the north. The general was with William Ginehart and just as they expected, they were ambushed along the way. They managed to survive but they did not send any news that they reached the northern border.
General Linius stabilized the north and made a base for himself there. He was so busy establishing his base and knights that he decided not to get involved with what was happening in the capital. The visit from the master was a bit unusual and surprising for him at the same time.
"I wasn't expecting you to come and visit me," the general grinned. He looked at the young man and noticed that nothing about him changed.
"I've missed you," Cygnus answered. This made the general cringe and frown. He shook his head and gestured for the man to have a seat.
"Please, it is impossible for you to be missing someone like me." Linius laughed and sat down too so they were facing each other. He served them both a hot tea which he knew that the master liked.I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm
ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm "That's true. I just came here because the duke misses you and of course I also came to see the situation in this place." Cygnus looked around before he picked up the tea cup and had a sip. "This place is actually nice and more silent, unlike the capital."
"Do you want to live here then?" Linius raised an eyebrow before he laughed out loud. "That was actually a joke. I know that someone like you won't be living in this kind of place."
"You shouldn't judge a book by its cover. I've been in a worse situation than this." Cygnus took a sip of the tea and was surprised that it tasted good even though it was from the north.
"Then I have nothing to say," Linius answered. "Then may I know the reason why you suddenly visited me?" He finally asked after a few seconds of silence between them.
"It's happening. The capital will soon fall into chaos and everything you hold dear might get destroyed. Your father already knew about this and he doesn't have much reaction to it." Cygnus informed him as he looked up to observe the man's reaction but he saw nothing.
The general's face was relaxed and at ease. "I've already expected it too. With how your character is, it will surely happen and there's nothing I can do about it."
"That's an answer that I really like. Is it because you are loyal to me or is it because you genuinely follow me now?" Cygnus's eyes were wide as he looked at the general who was now shaking his head.
"You've already told us before that you would destroy this world and we were just honestly waiting for it. This world has been polluted for a long time now and before any suffering could happen, it is better to end it now." Linius answered which was already known to the master.
One would think that he was randomly picking people to become his subordinates but he too has his own standards. Ignius was a dragon with a dark past and was willing to kill to get what he wanted. Nina was a woman full of bitterness and revenge was her driving force.
Mr. C and Ari were intelligences that were abandoned but he found useful. Astrophos was a troubled mage that was hanging between the boundary of good and evil. Ezio was a youngster who witnessed his only family's death and whose heart had been slowly tainted.
Vain whose future was stolen because of some crazy experiments for the sake of power. Reitou and Nahar were spirits forgotten and weakened who were only looking for a place where they could belong. Linius who was a proud man but was consumed with hatred because of how his brother died. He was someone who would uphold justice but to the person who killed his brother, he could become the worst villain.
They were all people that the master deemed to be trustworthy. They were suitable people for him to use because they wouldn't complain and would follow everything he would command. In every world, he was lucky to find such people that could keep him company.
"Then you should prepare yourself and of course your soldiers because war is coming." Cygnus stood up and looked at the general. "I will surely lose my mind in the process so you should do what you can if you want to stay alive."????????????????????????????????.????????????
Cygnus turned around and entered the gate that led to the Ginehart manor. Since all of his people were ready, it's high time that he would also make a move. Cygnus immediately had his butler beside him as he gave him a grin.
Mr. C nodded and left for the living where the others were still playing. He clapped his hands to get their attention. The noisy living room silenced and all pairs of eyes were now looking at him. Mr. C gave them all a smile which only meant one thing, the master was making his move.
"This is great!" Nina exclaimed because they could already guess what the master wanted to convey.
This was the usual smile that the butler would give them when the master decided to do what he always did. It would be war very soon and that means that they would be able to stand beside the master proudly. This is one of the things the old servants were looking forward to.
"It is finally happening." Ignius was nodding his head with a grin. Their long wait was over.
