Chapter 600: Leons Visit (1/2)
”I'll cleanse the palace grounds first and make it safe for my parents before working on the areas of my women's families...”
”The rest of the Capital will be worked on eventually as I make regular trips in between regions...” Leon muttered in contemplation before he suddenly paused.
”No, this is too inefficient. I am putting a load of work on my shoulders again. I will drop by the Lancaster Workshop and visit Rachel and future mother-in-law later...”
When Leon thought about his matters with Rachel, he was at a loss. Nevertheless, their marriage considered the interest of the two families.
”I can only tackle the problem as they come...” Leon shook his head and continued to cleanse the palace grounds.
His Black Vortex Space slowly filled up with refined Demonic Energy and more fragments of Wrath Law before.
Suddenly, Leon felt like he was being watched before abruptly turning his gaze to the west before the traces disappeared in a flash.
”Quite fast...”
Leon wrinkled brows before becoming more confident of his steady choice to not be hasty in cleansing the Capital.
”Sure enough, there's a hidden expert in Capital. But I wonder if this person is a friend or foe? Since the person's trace disappeared, there's no use searching blindly for this person…” Leon muttered with a frown.
Still, he should inform his parents and keep an eye out.
…
Crawford University, Dean's Office.
”I only took a look because I was curious what kind of Law this kid comprehended, but I did not expect him to have grown such sharp senses...”Dean Wilfred rubbed his forehead wryly after retracting his gaze quickly before he could be spotted.
Suddenly, the doors to the office were knocked before a person entered and gave a respectful bow to the Old Dean.
”Dean Wilfred.”
”Un.”
Dean Wilfred acknowledged the person's greeting calmly before asking, ”Did you find out what I asked for?”
”Yes, Dean Wilfred. The recent stir in the Capital is not caused by any powers from the Geyser Kingdom. In fact, the informant I contacted also said similar events have been happening in the east,” the male subordinate informed.
”These demon worshippers obviously do not belong to the West, but they do not belong to any powers from the East either, huh…? For them to appear during the start of the Cataclysm, this does not seem like a good sign…” Dean Wilfred muttered with a frown.
”An unknown force that has not been accounted for by the High Council. They have hidden themselves very well from the High Council's eyes.”
”That's hard to digest, Dean Wilfred. I do not believe the High Council would have missed such a large force with their all-seeing eyes. What if these demon worshippers are a new emerging force instead?”
”The High Council's eyes are not omniscient as you think. They can only see the surface of things and not what lies underneath. It's easy to miss a few things—if not a lot of things,” Dean Wilfred spoke calmly.
”Still, whether they are or not, their presence only fuels the growing chaos in the Human Domain.”
