Residence of the royal family of the black sun, Inside a small room, 17 saints and 6 young geniuses gathered
Prince William is sitting on the main seat, looking at Caesar who is standing in front of him. "The surroundings are safe now, you have no other excuse... Speak."
The pressure in the room was immense and was mostly directed towards Caesar, coming especially from the Saints of the three Families: Stanley, Evren, and even The Altons
Billy approached and patted Caesar on the shoulder and nodded with a smile to reassure him, "Speak up and don't worry nothing will happen to you today no matter what you say, otherwise how am I going to raise my head in front of Robin again? Haha."
A saint from the Evren side interfered, " humph, I wouldn't be so sure about that"
"Exactly, and don't try to fool us, boy, you better say the truth or I will personally have your head if you turned out to be a spy!"
Caesar ignored them and returned the smile and nodded at Billy, then went back to face the crowd, "Gentlemen, very briefly, all of Dolivar's squads have united to search for and annihilate the squads of the duchies: Stanley, Evren, Alton,"
"What!?"
"Do you realize what you're saying?"
"Have you gone crazy, boy?!"
Reactions varied, the saints of the three families started standing one after the other, crying out at Caesar, the rest furrowed their eyebrows, even Billy widened his eyes, not believing what he was hearing.
He quickly asked Caesar, "Why do you say something like that? Did you see their killing with your own eyes?"
"No." He shook his head
"Did you gather us here to draw conclusions, you damned brat?!" A saint from the Duchy of Stanley nearly slapped Caesar, but Billy stood before him at the right moment to block him
an old-looking man spoke calmly, "Boy, do you know the consequences of what you said? if you are right then a war might erupt between the two kingdoms, this is not a joke!"
"Everyone, calm down!" Prince William yelled, "If any of you try to stir up chaos again, I will have to remove him from this assembly!"
The saint who wanted to slap Caesar humphed and returned to his seat, Billy also came back to Caesar's side and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't be afraid, I'm here with you no one will harm you, keep talking, but with more details this time."
Caesar nodded and continued, "The squads of the Kingdom of Dolivar got united inside the hunting area and divided themselves into three groups, each group containing 4 squads. They set out on the last day of the event to target and kill those from the three duchies I mentioned before."
"And how did you know that?" William asked
"Your highness, the humble me is also a person from the Duchy of Alton."
"You... you mean you were targeted?" Billy suddenly came to a realization and asked
"Yeah, twice, actually." Caesar nodded affirmably
The room turned into complete silence, then they started shaking their heads.
"This is a waste of everyone's time"
the ninth-level kid just said that 8 squads wanted to kill him but he is somehow still alive!
they have now confirmed that Caesar was lying to take advantage of the situation and assign himself as a hero...
"What a heroic young man you got there, Billy, I will see for how long would you be able to protect him," a saint said sarcastically
in fact, even Billy didn't believe this, he got busy trying to figure a way for slipping Caesar out of here
William frowned and looked at his younger brother, "Alfred, why did you tell us to ask Caesar what happened to the three squads? Did he tell you he knew what happened?"
"No, big brother, on our way back I found him and Dali Julian up against a large group of Dolivarian squads including Prince Henry Dolev himself! And... I found two dead bodies and a few severed heads at the scene, but I don't know who they belonged to."
"what?!" All eyes were now on Dali, the saint of the Julian family staring at him "why are you still standing like an idiot? Say what happened!"
"I'll say, I'll say! ....But I don't know what to say... well, I met Brother Caesar Burton on my way back to the gate and decided to travel with him, but as we approached the black sun assigned gate these guys appeared, a big group of four squads, and they talked about something like they were glad to see Caesar and that the ambush had succeeded,
Caesar also talked about meeting another group before them.. the enmity was clear between them and they decided to... those bastards decided to kill us!!
This was very clear!! one was even speaking about me saying that there would be no problem if another squad disappeared."
The saint of the Julian family broke the armrest of his seat. "Those bastards! Who do they think we are? sheep waiting to be slaughtered?!"
"Go on, what happened after that? was it then that Alfred showed up to rescue you? but what about those corpses and severed heads, who were they?" William signaled in silence again.
"It's... It's Michael Tinley and his entire squad! they came as part of the group to set up an ambush against us but they all died."
"what did you say?" The hair on the prince's body rose up, and quickly he also stood up from his seat. This was the first time he had shown such a strong reaction since this assembly began. It is possible to imagine the reactions of the rest, then he continued asking "How did they die?"
"Caesar killed them."
"What nonce is this? you fought and even killed an entire squad? Didn't you say they're a group of 4 squads? How is it possible that you're still alive as they're dead?"
"I swear don't know either!! They didn't care about me, they just ignored me and I thing planning to kill me after they finish their main target, as for Caesar, as soon as the battle started he activated a strong white flame field around him and quickly killed two of Tinley's squad, the three other squads joined the fray at this point but none of them could break through the flame field,
As they were busy how to break through that strong flame field, Michael and his team disappeared and what appeared again was only their heads... placed neatly on a f*cking rock!!
I swear what I'm saying is the truth! Even they didn't know what had happened!! At this point His Highness Prince Alfred came with support which made them fear us and run away, that's all I know."
Everyone looked back at Caesar again, but seriously this time, "How were Michael Tinley and his team killed?"
"My followers took care of them"
"Your followers? Only two ninth-level slaves entered the hunting area with you, you talking about them?"
"correct." Caesar's answer was simple, but it shocked everyone to the core.. Two of the ninth level killed an entire squad in such a terrifying way without anyone noticing!
"your followers, huh? we'll come back to this later... You said you were attacked twice, how did you manage to escape in the first one?" William asked
"Who said I escaped from them?" Caesar chuckled, but the response was enough to make the imaginations of those present go wild
"Speak clearly." Prince William frowned even more deeply and took a few steps towards him
"Yes, a group of 4 squads attacked me in the middle of the third day, one that was calling Zika and the other said his name was Sheldon...or something like that, I don't remember the rest... generally they are all dead now."
"Dead? all of them? How did they die?!"
"What else? I killed them all, of course, but I wasn't alone to be fair... My followers helped me."
"Are you saying you and your followers... three at the ninth level... killed 24 veterans and geniuses at the tenth level, with no one escaping?"
"That's exactly what happened." Caesar nodded proudly
The high pressure and frightening silence returned to the room.. but this time not to doubt Caesar, but because huge news like this cannot be faked,
perhaps the way they were killed can be hidden or lied about, but a fact like there are five squads from Dolivar, including Michael Tilney"s squad, that dead inside the hunting area, is a fact that cannot be twisted by any means.
Five... the kingdom of Dolivar lost the same number of geniuses that they lost!
and they even lost two to beasts, but all the Dolivarians' deaths were on the hands of one of their own, Caesar
"If what you say is true, then it seems that we took our revenge and some more in the same event hahaha."
