351 Sacred Cleansing (2/2)

As the black bearded man sat before the dark orb, he wiped his sweat as he was scolded at the very start of the conversation… he merely wanted to report that he was a step away from success for the task he was assigned to…

”Listen well, as most of the keys have been delivered and successfully received, unlike the one you were unlucky enough to mess up, the spatial call was successfully established and we have finally set the date for the first wave. The sacred cleansing shall commence 20 days from now!”

”Acknowledged my lord!” Hurridenly standing up from his chair, the man bowed deeply to the point of kneeling.

”Other than that, did you deal with that 'hunter' already? The head commander of the operation had confirmed his descendants' death and is fuming with anger… He won't dare do something to miss up, but it would be better to deliver that pest to him for the sake of a better performance. There is no longer any need to consider corrupting him forcefully if he readily refuses to accept the corruption himself, he probably knows too much which can cause us major disturbance… the operation takes priority!”

”My lord! This is exactly what I wanted to report to you as soon as possible, that idiot thought he found a perfect hiding spot by joining that sect, but he doesn't know what he stepped into! He did do some crazy stuff but he still hasn't escaped from my grasp, I will have him in my hands by the end of the week at the very most, he simply won't know what hit him…”

The black bearded guy's evil smirk spread on his face once more as he looked at the dark orb frantically, he may have an established position that garners respect from 99% of the domain's people, but he would whatever was needed to satisfy his lord!

”Good, do it and being forgiven won't be the only reward for you, I will allow you to receive my blessing once more since you did most of the preparatory work for the operation.”

”Thank you my lord! I shall see to this task's end personally!”

'Back to waiting once more…'

Having already achieved my target by meeting the sect master and telling him what I needed to, I had already returned to my lazy life which I continued for another two days.

Sleeping for 12+ hours, spending the rest of the time playing with Light and reading books from the sect's general library was quite a good rehab after going through the recent grind!

Just like the recent step, it was a step that I had already done the initiating steps to it earlier, for now all I could do was also to wait for it to happen.

However…

”Personal apprentice candidate Lan Storm, the Sect Council has decided to send you on an urgent extermination mission. Please step forward to receive your mission order!”

It seemed like two days was all I could get.

”Meow!”
