Chapter 1277: Execute the Empress?
A few days later.
Evelyn stood in front of a board. There were many notes on the board, and in the middle, ‘Death Society’ was written.
On the left side, it was connected to ‘Empire.’ On the right side, it was connected to ‘Dynasty.’
Evelyn pointed to the right side. “We have confird eight people and speculate that ten people have co out of their isolation. They split the group into two, one for the empire and one for the dynasty.
“On the dynasty’s side, they are Alex Tear, Soul Devourer, Bloody Fiend, Sniper, and Bell Crusher. On the empire’s side, they have Lala Sky, Fated, Frequency, and two more people, who have yet to be identified.
“We have confird two objectives. They are contacting any type of organization or individual that has the sa thought as them in order to recruit them. In other words, their first objective is recruitnt.
“According to my group, the gate to that recruitnt is the Eleren family. You might think this is a bold accusation, but my person was able to interrogate soone who was supposed to be recruited in a way that made it impossible for him to lie.
“Most likely, the group inside the dynasty had the sa link, which went all the way to the empress.
“The second objective is linked to what happened two months ago. Those who had sharp senses would find that wave of fear coming from across the ocean.
“We believe they made the move because of that fear, not just because there was a chance. After all, they could strike much earlier than that if they wish.”
Evelyn finished her presentation.
Grand Duke Johnson and the Emperor crossed their arms.
The emperor glanced at the grand duke. “What do you think?”
Johnson nodded. “From what I can see, it’s plausible. There must be a gate as well in the dynasty, so it has to be investigated thoroughly.”
“So, you want to execute the empress?” The emperor’s voice turned cold.
“Please don’t misunderstand, Your Imperial Majesty. If she is truly the mole, we will be able to figure it out sooner or later. If Your Majesty doesn’t want to do such a thing, please put her under house arrest for the ti being. This way, no information would be leaked during our operation.
“If things start to get going, there’s no need for the empress to be under house arrest anymore.”
The emperor squinted his eyes. “So, what do you want to do?”
“We will investigate this matter thoroughly. For the ti being, Your Majesty doesn’t have to do anything. Right now, there is no big movent yet.
“From what I can see, Miss Evelyn’s strength is extraordinary. If she is able to integrate the summoning thod of this continent, she can probably overpower .
“That’s why, even if we want to make a big move, it’s better to wait until everything is ready.
“Your Imperial Majesty has given us your support, and we’d appreciate it. However, rather than mobilizing a large number of people, it will be better to send a couple of elites.
“It should be reasonable to eliminate one person at a ti, but if we poke the hornet, the other hornets might change their strategy.
“Hence, I’m assuming we have to attack the entire group and kill multiple of them or all of them at once. This way, even if they change their approach, we have taken down several of them.
“The hardest part is ensuring the safety of our people. If we let even a single one of our people die, it will be a massive loss for the dynasty.
“So, we have to at least outnumber them or place a special situation such as an ambush.
“Either way, we are unable to locate them right now, so we can’t say anything for sure yet.”
The emperor frowned. “When are you going to make a move then?”
Evelyn was the one answering that question. “Waiting for to master this continent’s summoning thod is one of the reasons we have to wait for a few months before making a big move.
“However, we should keep them busy as well. If it’s too good to be true, people will doubt it. They will doubt that we’re too incompetent if we don’t do anything.
“Hence, we will target their first objective right away. We will try to find any individuals or organizations that are in line with the Death Society’s concept.
“We will destroy them with overwhelming power and stop them from being able to get information. Of course, the empress might not be the only gate, so we will let a few of them escape.”
The emperor nodded in understanding. “So, you want them to lead you to all the spies.”
“Yes.”
The emperor stood up. “In that case, there’s nothing I can do right now. If you need help, inform . By the way, did you two co up with this plan?”
“Actually, no…” Johnson smiled wryly.
“Her?” The emperor pointed at Evelyn.
Evelyn shook her head calmly. “It was Nathan’s suggestion. We just adjusted it based on the information we have so far.”
“Ah, that guy, your fiance…” The emperor nodded in understanding. “Your fiance is very capable, Miss Evelyn. Do you have any intention of staying in the dynasty after fulfilling your revenge?”
“…” Evelyn remained silent. The emperor was actually trying to poach her and Nathan. There was no way she could afford to stay here.
“Well, you can answer later. Just think about it.” The emperor shrugged. “Anyway, where is he? The last ti I heard, he was going to the empire, no? Did he not plan to return here and visit you?”
“He…”
…
The aforentioned person, who managed to impress the emperor, was actually surrounded by two elite class aliens.
Nurous lower-level aliens, including many warrior class aliens, had surrounded him. Nathan, standing on top of the mountain with the lightning stone in his hand, couldn’t help but curse.
“Jeez. My luck. I’m prepared to fight both of them, not to be ambushed by both of them…”
