Chapter 1110 - The News That Reached The People

He then said

'Sasha is loyal. But all it takes for her to fall from grace is one mistake. And when the owner of that organization changes, we need to have some measure if the predecessor is not as…. accommodating as Sasha is'

There is something he did not say and express.

He fears that the Shadow Guards would be so powerful that it could orchestrate a coup and even attack Death Monarch

It is the concern of the military. Shadow Guards had been expanding relentlessly for the past six years.

Some of it is the method of the trickster. When Sasha was outside Pandemonium, the one in control of the Shadow Guards, at least to the world, is Vice Leader Shinji.

The truth is more sinister.. Loki was the one in control of the Shadow Guards.

His influence was subtle but he is the one expanding a lot of the Shadow Guards capabilities. 

It is the concern of many of the factions in pandemonium that a new offshoot of a branch loyal to Loki is present in the Shadow Guards, a shadowy faction that lurks in the darkness of the shadow

And one fears that with the worsening relations of Loki with Pandemonium, there is now an immediate threat to Death Monarch

And a threat to Death Monarch is a threat to Pandemonium. 

Death Monarch in a one on one fight would hardly find any enemies. 

But, disregarding some people adoration and worship of Death Monarch, thinking that he is truly invincible, Death Monarch is not truly invincible

There is a reason why Death Monarch even at times choosing to compromise. 

Death Monarch knows how to play the game and balance risk and benefits while at the same time staying true to his heart

many great powers created the Death Monarch Threat Theory after the second time the World Government island of Peace is attacked

It is a secret theory but it is more of an open secret. The Shadow Guards is one of the main element in a plan to neutralize Death Monarch

To destroy Pandemonium from the outside is near damn impossible. Any attack by outside forces would only strengthen the unity of Pandemonium.

As it is a gathering for many high level individuals, Pandemonium possess a large amount of individual power.

If Disk Formation leveler is considered to some as godlike people, then Pandemonium is the gatherings of these godlike people.

Many believe that if one wanted to take down Pandemonium, wanted to take down Death Monarch, it must come from within. 

While the Three Army is also an element that could be used to neutralize Death Monarch, at least in this Death Monarch Threat Theory, between the Three Army and the Shadow Guards, the Shadow Guards have a higher chance to succeed

And the mere possibility that Loki had infiltrated the Shadow Guards send shivers all over the political power in Pandemonium.

Death Monarch trusted Shadow Guards almost blindingly. If the ruler is blind, then at least the subordinate should open their eyes.

But to fight against Shadow Guards without any proof is not something the military wanted to see. 

The military did not fear a fight with Shadow Guards. But the outcome of such a civil war would only benefit the enemy of Pandemonium. 

As such, Milos knows that some of the bigshot of the army formulated the Shadow Guards Threat Theory to the stability of Pandemonium.

But it is not something that he could say to Eurus

'Eurus, you worry that my action would anger the superior in the army. You really think anything I did escape the eyes of those people?'

Eurus then raised his eyebrows as he understood something. But he did not say anything as his face expression turns solemn. 

He only looks down at his table and sighed as he takes another swig of the drink in his cup

He seems to understand something now. 

but this is not the place to talk about it. 

Even though he had uses his Divine sense and make sure there is nothing like surveillance spell or any devices, it is always better to be discrete about this kind of thing. 

The fact that Milos also talks in vague allusion is also because Milos is afraid of implicating those bigshots. 

Milos also takes another shot and then he said

'Let's talk about something else'

Milos nodded. He too wanted to talk about something else. They talk about casual stuff, things about their life as they unwind from their stressful work

Then they heard someone talking in a loud voice and they both frown.

'The news seems to have reach Pandemonium'

'Communication with the other great powers has been established yesterday' Eurus said as he pours the wine again into his cup

'Time of chaos again' Milos said to himself. He took a few snacks as he put it in his mouth, enjoying his day off

But even in his day off he could not help but listen to matters that made him stressful. The news that he and Eurus had heard had something to do with what is happening in Japan right now

He could only sigh and pretend not to listen 

Outside the private room of these two, some people is gathering on one large table. Standing on his chair, is a bulky middle age man with thick beard and wavy hair. 

He is a regular of the establishment. Before the expansion of the world, he also always comes to this tavern.

Even after the expansion and the tavern had move from its original place, he still comes.

Surrounding him is people from all walks of life and profession. 

Some of them are merchants, some of them are hunters and some of them are normal people who come to the tavern to unwind a bit

'Empire of Japan cut off their relations with the World Government! I would not believe that this has nothing to do with the Illusion Archmage!'

One of the people in the crowd shouted

'Is this news true?'

'I am the few people that establish contact with my friend in the World Government. Right now, the World Government is in a state of chaos'

Some people hearing this news did not feel that happy. In the past, the World Government could be considered as enemy of pandemonium

But that was a long time ago. In the past six years however, the World Government, the Republic and Pandemonium is more like an ally than they are enemies

And to some people of power, they might like it when the world is in chaos. Because this is where they could change the status quo and make a play at more power.

But to the normal people that have just got through another war, chaos is not something they want right now. 

The merchants have their own worries and the normal people also have their own worries. The instability of the Three Great Powers might invite some challenges from the four powers.

The news that The Empire of japan cut off relations with the World Government also made everyone understood that right now, the world is on the verge of another warlord period. 

None of the great power wanted such thing to happens and the only one right now that have enough influence and power to shape the policies of the world right now is Pandemonium

'Anything else, old man Ernst?' some of the youth among the crowd shouted

The old man smiles and then he closes his hand and then opening his hand, there is a dozen diamond-like shaped object on top of his hand. 

Each one of these diamond like thing is the size of a grain of rice. 

'Information docket in the form of diamond. Instant transferal in matter of seconds' Some laughed

'I know you would not give thing for free'

The old man laughed and said

'This is information hot from the press. Some of them is also not going to be in the official story.'

He let people digest what he is saying before he added

'Of course you could wait to hear it later. But to some people, information is power. And I am interested in only selling these to those people. As for the miscellaneous information I could give it to you all for free. After all, there is no difference me talking about it now and hearing about it later'

Suddenly the area became an auction area with some people bidding one another

The move of the bigshot in the world is the topic of many conversations all over the world right now.

Milos hearing the commotion outside knows that this tavern is not the only place that have such scene

All over the world right now, there must be so many similar scenes. Some of the people out there that wanted to buy the information no doubt wanted it to stay ahead of others.

Any moves of the great power could affect the direction of the world. It is then no surprise that some people would want such information. And since the expansion of the world, it became harder for people to get information.

Even though communication has been established between the great power, because of the distance and the turbulence of energy that is present between the distance, right now it is like one is back at the age of telegraph.

Milos stop his eavesdropping and focus on the drink on his hand.
