Chapter 275 - 275: Master?
"I that I needed to teach you the basics of ruling when you already have such a fine city of your own Why did you not tellEvans?"
"Because I didn't know about it"
Van and the others did not spend tooin the port As soon as they established that the people they met truly were part of the Resistance and not the Circle, Van decided to just leave theht to the New Wall It has only been a month or so since they left it, but it already felt like a long tio
The fact that the place in front of them did not even look remotely close to how they left it did not help one bit The tents that the Resistance, as well as the Locals froer be seen, instead, houses n of the houses inside the Pit…
there was even a castle in thethe Portal to the pit
In a way, one could say that they left a refugee camp, only to return to it already a city of its own But although it did change drastically, it was still a far cry froically advanced countries like Africa, and even ypt
Now that Van had returned to his birth country, he realized how the Circle truly has shaped its current state
Athena told Artemis not to land the Stymphalian inside the city, as there could still be a chance that the New Wall city had actually already been overrun by the people of the Circle, or at the very least already infiltrated
And so, the group just passed through the city's newly built gate
"We're sorry that there really isn't a group to welco, as the Circle had been attacking our base nonstop," the leader of the 36th platoon, Patricia, let out a long and deep sigh as she escorted Van and the others into the city
"It's fine," Van quickly shook his head, "And I already told you to stop callingthat role well"
"Well… Now that you're back, you'll be our President again, right?"
"Dear, dear, dear You don't understand," Dionysus then gently placed his hands on Patricia's shoulders as he whispered into her ear, "Vanny here isn't a President…
he is a King Address hi Evans"
"A Ki--"
"Now, let us go!" Before Patricia could even say a word, Dionysus pushed her away, "Let the important people do whatever it is they do"
"But--"
"You will be co with me You shall lead me to where all the nourishrandest party the mortals of this side of the multiverse have ever experienced!"
Patricia could no longer do anything but be dragged by Dionysus as they left Van
Van and the others decided to head to the castle as there wasn't anyone there to tell them the current situation, but before they could even take a step, a… tall woman that seemed oddly familiar to Van approached them
He knew he had never met the woman before, but she truly seemed oddly familiar no matter how Van looked at her It almost seemed like she was a tall and elica… what are you doing here?" Charlotte quickly approached the woman, "Aren't you… part of the Circle?"
As soon as Artemis and Athena heard Charlotte's words, they quickly surrounded the woman Van, on the other hand, quickly realized who the wo called by Charlotte
Angela, Angelo, and now Angelica This woman was the last of the triplets… but as she taller than the other two? And as her secret?
"I'elica raised both her hands as she let out a seline's orders to spy on theht?"
Athena looked at Charlotte, and seeing her nod, she quickly relaxed herself and returned to Van's side Artemis was still a little aloof, but she followed Athena and stood beside Van's side
"Yes, but why are you here? Isn't the war still ongoing? Did you get discovered?"
"There has been… interesting developelica let out a long and deep sigh, "I a to be one of the Circle prisoners"
"Interesting developments?" This time, it was Van that approached the wo happen to Latanya?"
"Latanya? You htly tilted her head, "Although she is quite interesting, it's not her What Iperson currently locked up here And I aelica then stretched her hand towards Van, "We've never ela can't shut up about you… it doesn't help that we share our htly hesitated to shake Angelica's hand, "But wait, this interesting prisoner you mentioned… is he called Hermes by any chance?"
