Chapter 245 C245. Final Preparations



Shortly after concluding his talks with Hecate and her underlings, they exited his office with Jarret escorting them back to the town.

He could easily teleport them back but it could sense the presence of his Dark Drake Diogo, so he figured they had ridden on his back to see him. He had no choice but to let them ride him back as well.

The moment they left and his doors were shut behind them, Kali rose from his shadow and knelt beside him. Tyler casually took another sip of his tea before asking.

"What did you observe?"

"The Devine aura belonging to the Dragonkin has slowly been getting weaker. It seems a part of her life essence had been ripped directly from her soul. I estimate she\'ll be dead in less than a month."

Kali spoke in her lovely voice that had an undertone of ghastliness about it. She was able to observe the three predatory beastmen from within Jarret\'s shadow and had gotten quite a bit of information on them.

It made sense why they were in such a desperate need to see him. It seems they had even almost caused a commotion in the town when he hadn\'t requested for them.

Still, Tyler didn\'t make them a priority as he had a lot to worry about at the moment. To hold a considerable amount of worth and leverage over the Great Five, he needed to put up a dominating show of strength against this army and luckily for him, his forces had increased nicely with the addition of the Ravens.

With four demigods by his side, he felt everything would go according to plan but he wasn\'t satisfied with just that. To prevent any unexpected outcomes, he would have to prepare various contingencies.

He never did trust his plans completely after all. That was why he decided to go along with Z\'s plans as he was a lot more adept at this than him.

It was a shame Moloc wouldn\'t be able to participate in this war but that was probably a good thing. As long as he recovers his former strength, Moloc was an excellent trump card against the Great Five.

\' Wait, what\'s that idiot doing now anyway?\'

Tyler closed his eyes then using clairvoyance, Uriel showed him a scene of what was currently going on in the training hall he had let Moloc in and almost faced palmed himself.

Just as he had left her, Moloc was floating in the air with her eyes closed as she played with her massive rack, giggling softly from time to time in amusement of sorts.

While it was impressive the dude planned on staying in that state for a full week, his constant amusement from her new body was unexpected.

\'I\'ll just pretend I didn\'t see that.\'

Wiping the image out of his mind, Tyler returned his focus to the former primordial behemoth called Levi. He would have to speak with them after the war. He had thought of sending Z but he soon changed his mind as there was something he wanted to ask.

"Alright then. There\'s no need for you to observe them any longer. Please return to Flare\'s side and take notes of the stronger forces of the undead army and send me that information periodically. I\'d also like to know where the undead king is at all times."

"As you command master."

Saying that her figure seems to melt into the ground as her presence disappeared through the shadows.

"Umm... Zelda."

"Yes, Master."

Zelda who stood by the side moved to where Kali had been and knelt.

"From what Z said, there might be some representatives from the Great Five amongst these armies. If that\'s the case then they would be more prepared against being spied upon than the undead. I\'d like you to go with Kali and keep an eye on those types."

"As you will it."

"Oh right. There\'s a slim chance one or two of these individuals would be at the level of a demigod so if you sense a divine aura amongst them, don\'t let Flare and Kali go anywhere near them."

"Yes, master."

"Here, use this item in investigating such individuals. You may go."

Tyler reached into thin air and pulled out a ring that seems to be made of glass. This was a magical artifact called Ring of Unknowability. It grants the were the skill called Universal Unknowable.

The ability to hide one\'s presence from the universe itself. Even gods with the power of omniscient will fail to comprehend the presence of the user.

Zelda received the magic item without any hesitation as she immediately put it on her ring finger. The item turned invisible after that as only the wielder could see it. Her figure promptly disappeared without a trace after that.

His office returned to a state of calm after that and Tyler silently drank the rest of his now lukewarm green tea as he took in the tranquility of this moment.

There wasn\'t much else he needed to do to prepare for the war so he wanted to have some time to himself. Moreover, with the plan Z had come up with, he didn\'t need to do anything much except finish off the undead king.

Tyler wiped away all the worries from his mind as he rested his back on the incredibly soft sofa and almost sank into it.

"Say, Uriel, do you think you can pay me back a part of my memories I wasn\'t paying attention to at the time.\'

[Of course.]

\'Nice.\'

With that, Tyler basically asked Uriel to play him back a movie that had been playing in the background at one of his workplaces back on earth.

He then spent the next few hours watching movies in his office as he ate fruits and drank wine, finally enjoying the luxuries he thought a noble should have. Although this was just him being lazy.

\'Still, having a large theatre and some popcorn would be nice right now.\'

—Blackwing City, Sentro Region.

The capital city of the Sentro region is located at the heart of the region and protected by several layers of tall, thick, and sturdy brick walls that made the city look and feel like a fortress.

In the innermost district or simply, the Royal district, was the Zorak Family\'s Castle. A large castle that spanned over a vast area of more than one million square feet and was almost as large as the demon king\'s castle.

As the single most important place in the Sentro Region, it was safe to say that the castle was highly secured as it was protected by the Powerful Magic and the Royal knights. A group of elite knights that compromise solely of high-tiered magic fighters who systematically patrolled the castle ground and an airtight formation.

However—

These knights currently seem to be on extremely high alert for some reason as they seriously patrolled the entirety of the castle as though searching for something while preventing any means of escape.

They had also sealed the entrance to the castle as well as cast an anti-magic barrier around the castle that prevented the use of teleportation.

•••••

Deep inside the castle, a woman wearing only a long white t-shirt with black high heels shoes sat on a chair — a throne— in a small but luxurious hall.

She was a mature lady with unrivaled beauty that would leave most males and females speechless if it were not for her cold and sharp gaze that made all who came before her lower their heads in her presence.

Her smooth long legs and curves that were barely hidden by her simple shirt made the men in the room risk their lives to take a peek.

"So?"

"I\'m afraid we\'ve failed in stopping the spy my lady. However, we did prevent them from returning with the information they gained but they were able to take a source necrosis pill that destroyed their soul, preventing any form of resurrection or spirit channeling."

A knight clad in silver full plate armor spoke respectfully from his kneeling position at the front of the throne.

"In the end, you got nothing."

The matured lady spoke in a cold and semi monotonous tone as she stared at the kneeling knight with little interest.

"My apologies Lady Marline. Please forgive our incompetence."

Marline continued to stare at the knight as everyone in the room gulped their dry saliva in anxious anticipation. She then tapped her right index finger on the armrest of her throne and the right arm of the knight dropped as though it had only been attached by weak glue.

The knight\'s face contorted in pain but he did not scream out loud as he bit his tongue to prevent any sounds from coming out. The wound from his missing arm did not bleed as it seems the blood was held in place by something.

"Leave."

Bowing his head deeply, the knight picked up his arm from the ground and walked gently out of the room without seeming hurried or in a hast.

"What\'s next?"

The moment the one-armed knight left the room, Marline spoke to the Minister standing beside her and he brought out a report and summarized it.

"Since the death of Zomatsu and the scouts, we\'ve been unable to identify over a dozen spies in the family\'s various branches as well as three here. However, none of them have been successfully apprehended and even the one caught in Silverwing city was killed mysteriously overnight."

"That\'s to be expected isn\'t it?"

Marline asked the minister in her usual tone but her eyes seems to have caught a noble staring at her chest. The young noble panicked and lowered his head, expecting to at the very least, lose an arm but her interest seems to have waned by his cowardice.

"You\'re right my lady, this is the standard operation of the Greats. A few of our spies in the other families have been eliminated in the last few days."

"So even the family responsible for this is putting up a farce. How troublesome."

"Indeed. With the situation in the Darknar Region about to be escalated. The great five are all gearing to make a move at the end of this."

The Great Five each had scouts positioned in the eastern parts of the Darknar forest but all of them had been killed a few weeks ago. Leaving only one witness who had confirmed the assailants were demon nobles from one of the Greats.

They had even killed off their own scouts just to throw off the scent from the other families as one of them helped Mammon\'s assault on the castle while another one aided this unknown behemoth.

"We\'ve fallen behind."

This was clearly the work of two of the Great Five families but it had taken the Zoraks by surprise. Even with the nonaggression pact they had amongst themselves, that didn\'t stop them from moving against the others in secret and the Zoraks were doing the same.

Yet. They had completely been blindsided by this turn of events and could only go along with the flow by sending representatives to hinder the other families\' plan and claim the castle for themselves if possible.

"According to a report we got from Aura a while back. There was a request for assistance concerning a behemoth in the darknar region from a member of the brimstone family but he didn\'t hear from them after making his demands."

"And why I\'m I just hearing of this?"

Marline\'s eyes narrowed at the monster who almost took a step back but restrained himself as he spoke in his normal tone as though nothing happened.

"My apologies, I had only seen the report a few days ago myself. It seems my division didn\'t consider the matter relevant at the time."

"That foolish kid. He must\'ve made an unreasonable demand. But this is good, it confirms the brimstones should be invoiced with either Mammon or this behemoth. Have someone especially keep an on the brimstone\'s movements during the war."

"Understood. Our representatives have also successfully infiltrated the undead army using that artifact to temporarily turn themselves undead."

"That trio Huh... very well. Send that unit to monitor the situation with the war. I want to see everything as it happens in real-time."

"Understood."

"You\'re all dismissed, I\'ll update the young master of the situation."

"As you command Grand Elder."
