Chương 234: Interlude 3: “Report to Master Megil”

Deep underground in Sacris. In a room within a top-secret facility, Master Megil and his associates were holding a meeting.

"Good work. We successfully seized Edel's legacy from that location. With this, we are one step closer to achieving our plan."

"Congratulations, Master." The one who said that was the masked woman.

"By the way, what happened with the Colosseum? Clam." The hero, Clam Selenberg, stood leaning against the wall of the room with his arms crossed.

"That fool Vester. He rampaged without a thought. Thanks to him, it turned into quite a mess."

"Sigh... This is why simple-minded idiots are troublesome." The masked woman was exasperated. It is easy to imagine that security will become stricter from now on, making it difficult to move.

"It's a pity. So, were you able to dispose of him?"

"Actually... the one who killed him was Yu. Including his subordinates, everyone."

"What did you say!? Weren't they pinned down in the forest?" The masked woman was flustered by the unexpected report.

"For some reason, by the time I returned to Sacris, everything was already over..." Reading on this site? This novel is published elsewhere. Support the author by seeking out the original. Teleportation Magic was made unusable by the jamming device. In addition to the Rhinos, he even unleashed the Fire Dragon. It was a perfect obstruction. No matter how he did it, he shouldn't have been able to return in such a short time. And yet. Clam was sweating cold sweat at the unidentifiable situation.

However, he calmed himself down, thinking it wasn't all bad news.

"But, it's not the worst-case scenario."

"What do you mean?"

"It was not exposed that the Colosseum raid was an incident caused by us, the Masked Group. Because Vester died before he could run his mouth. The truth remains in the dark." Hearing that, the masked woman felt relieved.

"That's good. That idiot, there was no telling when he would mess up."

"Hmm. Then there shouldn't be a major problem. It seems disposing of him was the right call after all. So, how will we deal with this matter?"

"Of course, I'll arrange for it to be announced as the act of mere terrorists." Hearing his words, Master Megil nodded in satisfaction.

"That helps. Please do."

"Yeah." With this, one concern was resolved, but. Master Megil sighed as if he had a headache.

"Even so, this Yu Hoshimi is a terrifying existence. His background is completely unknown. He appeared suddenly, showed off talent exceeding even Argus, and even caused unexpected situations."

"That is why I told you. We should have left him alone."

"I agree. If he is someone who can repel even a Fire Dragon and massacre Vester and his subordinates. Unless we are prepared for massive sacrifices, we cannot crush him. I don't think it's something we should do paying such a price." To the suggestions of the masked woman and Clam, the Master pondered for a moment and then nodded.

"You're right. Let's decide to leave him alone. After all, we haven't had our tails grabbed yet." The three nodded to each other.

"Anyway, good work. If things go at this pace, preparations will be complete within a year, or half a year at the earliest. It took a long time, but finally." He chuckled quietly behind his mask.

"The revival of Edel is—" DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM! At that moment. The strictly locked door of the room was blown away flashy. Master Megil, the masked woman, and Clam Selenberg. Greatly agitated by the sudden event, they all looked at once in the direction where the impact sound exploded.

"Yo." The three shuddered. Beyond the shattered door—. Glaring at the three with pitch-black eyes that looked as if they had been painted over with darkness, Yu was standing there.
