Chapter 1198: Supreme Devil Organization

Supreme Devil Organization.

Two days had passed as Anna was currently heading to the Greenwood Kingdom.

Alexander frowned. ”It seems that the situation has changed. The Gem Lord and his disciple have died. We have lost contact with the Dark Lord as well, so we should assume that he has died.”

The Void Arbiter frowned. ”How did they die? The Gem Lord should have died, but not the other two.”

”We are unsure. The only thing we know right now is that there was an attack on the Dark Lordʼs mansion. The soldiers were killed, but according to the people living in that town, there were two men flying into the air for a bit, and a fight must have ensued.”

”Did the Gem Lord have the ability to kill the Dark Lord? Didnʼt we receive the report that the Dark Lord successfully fed him the demon?” The Void Arbiter frowned.

”It seems that someone is interfering with our work.”

”Does the Ardagan have sniffed our plan?”

The atmosphere became tense. The Ardagan family had been stopping their plans multiple times. If they were careless, the Ardagan family might succeed again.

”But isnʼt this plan much different than the last? They wonʼt be able to identify who is a demonic human and who is not. Even in the Golden Dawn City, several of us have infiltrated the city without getting noticed. All we have to do is wait for Noel Ardagan, Anna Stargaze, and Dimitri to leave the city before commencing our plan. The Gem Lord has been eliminated after all.”

”But how are we able to draw them out? If we wait for too long, Noel Ardagan will most likely find out our spies.”

”…”

Laufey, who had been silent this whole time, finally opened his mouth. ”There is a rumor that Noel Ardagan and Anna Stargaze are planning to go to the Zaecuria Kingdom for the sea expedition.”

”Should we sabotage them? Since theyʼre planning to join, they must have some level of confidence in finding the land.” Void Arbiter crossed her arms.

”Shouldnʼt we focus on the Golden Dawn City? If we can destroy it, even if they find something out there, he will have to clean up the mess in his own territory for a long time.

”With their scheme, Iʼm afraid that unless we send three people who are close to the transcendence, we wonʼt be able to take those two out, let alone the fact that they have the support of the Zaecuria Kingdom. Itʼs too risky to send all those people at once. Itʼs better to focus on what we are sure is going to work.”

”You are awfully quiet, Laufey.” Josephine squinted her eyes.

”Am I?” Laufey looked away. ”Iʼm just thinking about how to handle Dimitri. Even though he has retired, it doesnʼt change the fact that he shouldnʼt have any problems killing two or three people by himself, especially with that True Spirit Body. Nobody can stop him from assassinating someone.”

Josephine couldnʼt deny it. The reason why Qiel lasted so long against Dimitri was because she managed to turn the battle into a head-on one.

”Shouldnʼt we just attack them? You have your portal, Josephine. If we send some demons inside and outside the city, it should be enough to confuse them. After that, weʼll destroy the water storage and flood the entire city.” Alexander suggested.

”Do you know how much they reinforce that water storage? The reports say that the Water Storage is much sturdier than the wall, not counting the runes used to reinforce it. And thatʼs only the water storage for other people. We know that the Golden Dawn City would definitely have a much better quality.”

Alexander looked down. ”Does that mean we can only wait? How about sending the Tower Association to stop the Demon Banner Army? Or I can stop Oscar while the association hurts them?”

”This is bad. We need Qiel to think of a strategy for us. We are able to gain all this advantage, but because we donʼt have her, we are unable to think of a good execution. Losing Qiel is too huge of a blow for us.”

”Instead of doing that, we have to diminish the Ardagan familyʼs growing influence. Why donʼt we kill one or two more important people? Or maybe harassing the Runegard Company?”

”Itʼs true that we might be able to bait Howard or Felicia to come out, but we have done that previously, and the result is Duke Loreleiʼs anger. He is starting to break his neutrality. If he goes back to the court, the influence of the royal family will be diminished even further.

”That is enough.” The Supreme Devil suddenly broke his silence. ”Josephine. You tell the Tower Association to start claiming the rune technology. As long as we can study it, we will be able to find its weakness.

”Tell the spies to maintain a close look, making sure that Noel Ardagan doesnʼt leave the city.

”Alexander. You are to observe the Demon Banner Army. If they are making a big change, weʼll assume they have realized about the deaths of those three and will probably prepare to fight us. Just poke their formation here and there so that we can deliver a devastating blow when the time comes.

”Laufey. Continue with the cultivation of the Fagant Leaf as well as our force. We canʼt rely on the Tower Association and the royal family.”

The three were surprised, but since the Supreme Devil had spoken, they all lowered their heads. ”Yes, sir!”

”Report!” A Devil Bishop entered the room and kneeled right at the entrance. He shouted, ”We have just received an urgent report from our spy in the Golden Dawn City. Paladin Aurelia in the Moon Temple Headquarters located in that city has just left the city with a fast horse.

We are unsure of her intention, but someone of her level to rush out means the Ardagan family must be planning to do something.”

”!!!” Both Josephine and Alexander widened their eyes in shock.
