"Goodluck Host!

"

nListening to the system's warnings, Landon was completely taken aback.

nWhat the hell?

n3 minutes?

nDammit!

n

"Your majesty... is something the matter?

"

n

"No.... nothing at all.

nI have a phone meeting in about 2 minutes.

nSo I'll use one of your building's phones to do that.

nYou all enjoy yourselves without me.

nI'll be right back.

"

nWith that, Landon immediately excused himself from the celebrations and speedily walked into one of the security buildings on the District.

nLuckily, he had previously done security checks and whatnot when trying to save the whales.

nHe showed the badge that was given to him at clearance and quickly dashed into the building as fast as he could.

nThe moment he walked into the building, he instantly spotted a bathroom sign beside the entrance door.

nBingo!

nHe quickly went into the men's bathroom, got into a stall, and vanished into thin air without a trace.

n'Warp!'

nAnd just like that, he was gone.

n.

nSomewhere within one of Arcadina's Coastal villages, 24 men were currently surrounded by more than 80 enemies.

nThese enemies had been chasing them for weeks now, and had finally caught up to them in this poor village within Arcadina.

nThe villagers had been attacked, killing anyone who wasn't their own.

nIn their minds, who knew if these villages were also working with their targets?

nSeeing the innocent villagers die, their targets quickly came out of hiding and began

nTheir battle was very fierce... and the loud sounds of swords and other weapons could be heard clashing against each other throughout the entire village.

nAs for those 24 men on the battlefield who had been chased and hunted down, 2 stood out to be leaders of the pack.

nThey fought and coordinated within everyone in their team bravely, as tried their best to ensure that no one died.

nThese 2 leaders were none other than Yodan's King Sirius, and the crown Prince of Terique, Astar Parcely.

n.

nYup!

nWhen Nopline and Kamara made their move ages ago, he had quickly taken his family to the empire of Yodan.... and had kept them safe and hidden with his close friend Sirius.

nThe reason why they left Yodan, was because they wanted to secretly visit Baymard.

nOf course when they left, they had stated that they would be going to one of Sirius' estates in Yodan instead.

nSo with that, all of Sirius' stepmothers had sent their goons to kill him before he reached his destination.

nThey had done their best to allude 95% of these goons.

nBut who would be known that some of them wouldn't fall for their tricks and follow them right to Arcadina?

nEven though Arcadina and Yodan shared borders, they didn't want to pass through the borders, as they had previously planned to sail to Carona and use the Bay-Carona Transport ships.

nFor them, that would definitely be faster.

nBut after they realized that they were being flowed, they quickly decided to pass through Arcadina's borders instead.

nThis way, they could easily lose their pursuers.

nAfter all, they didn't want these people to know where they were going.

nBut who would've thought that even after travelling for 3 and a half months, these people wouldn't even let them rest for just a bit?

nHow frustrating!

n.

n'Thang!'

n'Thang!'

n'Thang!'

n'Ahhhh!'

nSwords clashed with each other, and gruesome sounds of the injured could be heard a mile away.

n

"You all should just give up!

nWe have you outnumbered, so there's no miracle that will let you survive past today.

" Said their enemies, in the heat of the battle.

n

"Do you realize that he is your king?

nRather than obeying him, you're obeying his stepmothers?

" Astar yelled angrily.

n

n

n

"HahahahaHahahaha.....

nSo what if they do?

nWe aren't on Yodan soil anymore.

nSo who would know about this little encounter over here?

nAnd you!

nWho do you think you are?

nAren't you just a guard or something?

nHehehhe.... well, since you want to be so loyal to him, then be a good dog and Die!

" Said the enemy leader, who was already looking at them as if they were corpses.

nWith that, the battle commenced again fiercely.

nAnd when Astar or Sirius weren't paying attention, one of their enemies secretly shot an arrow towards Sirius.

n'Whoop!'

nThe arrow whistled through the air and flew towards its target like a missile.

nAfter killing his enemy, Sirius soon spotted the arrow making its way towards him and quickly tried to defend himself... But he knew in his heart that it was too late for him to take action against the attack.

nIn truth, it was almost as if he was seeing it in slow motion but couldn't do anything about it.

nThey said that when death came for someone, it would feel like that.

nSure enough, it was true!

nSirius took a big breath as if trying to prepare himself from death.

nBut just when the arrow was about to hit its mark, something unexpected happened.

n'Thap!'

nThe arrow had been caught by a strange man in black.

nEveryone was utterly surprised by this strange man.

n--silence--

nFor a moment, both enemy and ally were both I a trance.

nNo one had seen where the man had come from... night even those who were secretly trying to shoot arrows at their targets.

nIt was almost as if the man had appeared out of thin air.

nBut that would be too ridiculous!

nWas he some sort of high-level assassin?

nYes... that might be it!

n.

nJust looking at the man in black, everyone immediately thought the same way too.

nEven though the man in black looked like an assassin, something about his appearance left them even more confused than they were before.

nIf he was an assassin, then why was his face gully exposed?

nDo high-level assassins not care about their identities getting exposed anymore?

nHis skills right now had confirmed that he was a high-level assassin... Hence they had decided to stick with that story.

nAfter all, how many men could catch an arrow with their bare hands mid-air?

nThere was no doubt about it.

nThis man in black was an expert!

nBut why did his face also looked so familiar as well?
