Chapter 507: Pallarmus Tribe (1/2)
”I feel like we are being cheated,” Carl said after Tang Shaoyang came out of the room, ”An Emperor my ass, he's just alone and he dreams to destroy a kingdom. This is ridiculous, Tristan! Don't tell me you believe him? Not only that, now he suspected our friend just because Jacob did not make that stupid oath!”
”Then do you have other choices? We have made the oath and signed the Contract System,” Tristan took a sip of the coffee, ”Moreover, his plan is working well so far. A fight will break between the Revolution Army and the kingdom. We can use this to our advantage. No matter who wins the battle, they would be weakened and that's the time for us to strike them. It is a solid plan.”
”Don't tell me you think that he can conquer the Gigante Forest? Commander Alton, who had reached Primordial by that time also failed to do so. Do you think he can? He is at best Ancient Level,” Roan looked at his friend with a confused look.
Tristan shrugged, ”It does not matter actually. If he failed, that means he is dead, and the oath and the system contract will get canceled. If he succeeds then we can hope for our vengeance! The kingdom who tried to kill their heroes and the ungrateful army we have been raised in, all of them deserved this death!”
”I guess you are right about that,” Roan nodded. Either way, there was nothing to lose for them. If Tang succeeded then they could think of the vengeance they had been waiting for. If Tang failed and died, the contract and the oath would be canceled. This was a gamble with no risk.

Julius Brent, the leader of the Revolution Army and also the disciple of Commander Alton was leading a meeting with the head of the Malone Family and the head of the Ambrose Family. He was seated in a similar room albeit this room was dimmed and lackluster compared to the real throne hall of the Lionax Kingdom.
On both sides, there were ten people each, attending the meeting. Each of them was a General who had their force, including Derekh Malone and Duran Ambrose. In total, the Revolution Army had thirteen forces in total including Julius Brent's army, it was around eighty thousand forces in total. Of course, to avoid the suspicion from the kingdom, the force was sparsely positioned. Hiding eighty thousand armies was not easy yet now their existence was discovered because of the two people.
”Do you have something to say? Derekh! Duran!” Julius's dignified voice rang in the dimmed room as an aura of Myth suppressed the two people who stood in the middle of the room. The aura forced Duran and Derekh to kneel.
”We did not kill Prince Kaiden with poison. His death has nothing to do with us!” Derekh Malone replied with his shaky voice.
”The culprit must be the man from another world. There was a man that the expedition force brought from the Dimensional Gate, he must be the culprit!” Duran Ambrose supported Derekh Malone's claim.
”I did not ask you about who was killing Prince Kaide. I am asking you how Prince Kaiden knows about our existence! Who leaked that to that spoiled prince!?” Julius raised his voice as the aura of Myth suppressed the two men further.
There was no reply from the two men. Duran and Derekh did not know as well how Prince Kaiden could know about the Revolution Army. They had nothing to answer this.
”Hah…” As the sigh escaped from Julius' mouth, the aura vanished, ”Don't tell me this is related to the missing knights and your daughter, Duran Ambrose!?” All eyes directed toward Duran. The ten people around them were Ancient Rank. Duran and Derekh were the weakest individuals in the room.
