495 The choosen one
Commander Reid Knew about Naethan and what he would do; however, he hoped that he would not do something reckless in an attempt to help him.N0v3lRealm was the platform where this chapter was initially revealed on N0v3l.B1n.
'Damn this...somebody's watching me from the shadows. Only one power can do that. I need to hurry up,' Commander Reid didn't want to alert the person that was watching him. So, he casually went to do his routine work in order not to raise any suspicions; however, in his mind, various thoughts and plans were continuously made to save his and his family members' lives before the royal family made their move.
....
The Guild Master, Rulf and other mercenaries, who were expecting a back up from the top three sects and the five great families didn't know that they were not getting any reinforcements from them except for a loyal team under Commander Reid.
"My essence of nature is completely used up. I need a small break,"
"I can still hold onto another 10 more minutes until then you can recover,"
"I have around 30 percent of the essence of nature in my spirit consciousness. So, those who want to take rest can take it now,"
All the mercenaries killed the demons with their fellow squad members. So, they have better coordination with one another.
Moreover, they backed up each other's backs and allowed their weakened squad member to take some rest to recover their essence of nature.
Similar things happened in each and every squad in which their strongest squad members helped their weakest squad members.
"Why are they taking so long?"
Rulf, for the first time in his life, saw the guild master stay silent when someone was arguing with him and clenched his fist.
"Rulf, what he said are the facts that I can't retort. But I still believed them because they have the power to change the fate of the Zrocehster province," The guild master patted the shoulder of Rulf and agreed to Edmond's words and said his reason for believing those top powers of the Zrocherster province.
"If only there was a high-level human cultivator that truly cared for humanity and merged all those powers into one, then that would have helped us in becoming as strong as the Ylercester province," The guild master shook his head while saying that.
"Bring them together? They are evil to the core and it is impossible for them to unite and become a single power," Edmond shook his head and disagreed with the guild master.
"You think you know many things but you still don't understand all of them, Edmond," The guild master looked at Edmond before saying, "What if a king level cultivator emerges and forces all the top powers into one? There is still a possibility of that happening and don't forget it has happened in the past and it will happen once again."
"Whatever. As long as everything goes as I expected, then I don't have anything to worry about," Edmond left after saying those words and started attacking the demon army.
"Guild master, this Edmond is becoming more and more brazen," Rulf looked at Edmond's attitude and complained to the guild master.
"Let him be. Edmond is one of those who have the power to change the fate of the Zrochester province. So, there is nothing wrong in him behaving like this," The old guild master laughed as he explained, "Don't forget the role of a chosen one from the hidden families. The more he denies in helping the Zrochester province, that much higher his help will be to our Zrochester province."
"He better helps the Zorchester province; otherwise, I will show him what I can do," Rulf scoffed while looking at Edmond, who was killing the demon servants and demon generals with a simple slash from his sword.
"Haha...don't make me laugh, Rulf," The guild master could not help but laugh when he heard Rulf's words.
"What happened now?" Rulf became irritated and asked with an annoyed look on his face.
"As I said earlier, you can't do anything to him. Even though he looks less powerful than you, he can kill you without any difficulty."
"Huh?" Rulf raised his brows as he looked at the guild master for an explanation.
