Chapter 411: Star, the Prezias (3)
[Your Subordinate Jin Prezia has appointed the Player Treville Prezia as his apostle!]
[Your Subordinate Jin Prezia is passing down his Divine Ranks <Cold-Bloodedness> and <Wind Blade> to his apostles in the form of Authorities.]
[The Class of the Player Treville Prezia has increased!]
[The Prezia Family is now affiliated with the Society <Muspelheim>!]
[Successfully putting one of the Arcadian civilizations prestigious families under your command has drastically increased the influence of the Society <Muspelheim>.]
Now an apostle, Treville trembled as a sense of fulfillment rose from the center of his heart. The emotions he had right now seemed completely different from the time he became Procyons apostle, an experience that he couldnt even find pleasant in the slightest.
He only agreed to become Procyons apostle because his sense of duty pushed him to revive his family, not because he believed in Procyon. At the time, he felt nothing but anxiety, thinking he had to use this opportunity to rise through the ranks as quickly as he could.
Treville was naturally still anxious in some ways but not in the same way as before. Unlike when he was Procyons apostle, which felt as if he was forcing himself to wear clothes that didnt even fit him, he now felt very comfortable.
... His Soul Frequency matches me too well. Is it because were related by blood? Treville wondered.
Jin was in a far higher league than Procyon, a mere hound. After receiving power from Odin, Jin continued his cultivation. Moreover, as Chang-Suns right-hand man, he shared a lot of Chang-Suns Authorities. Since Treville received the same benefit, the sense of relief he had melted his frozen heart like a spring breeze melting snow.
A teardrop rolled down Trevilles cheek. Im sorry.
Its okay. I understand.
Jin tapped Trevilles shoulder.
Speaking of which, we should head to Helath now. Chang-Sun stood up now that their conversation had ended.This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com
The unexpected suggestion made Jin and Treville simultaneously turn to Chang-Sun. Considering Helath was the capital planet of the Arcadian civilization, he was essentially proposing that they march toward where the Imperial Family and other prestigious noble families lived now.
Arent we being too hasty?
Chang-Sun shrugged. Is there a reason to delay? We should keep hitting them while they still dont have the exact details on our forces. Besides, <Horoscope> is dealing with its own problems right now. This is the best chance were ever going to get.
You do have a point.
One should be as swift as the wind when mobilizing an army, as quiet as a forest when standing by, as fierce as fire when launching an attack, and as firm as a mountain during defense.[1] The time had come for them to move like the wind and attack their enemies like flames, giving their enemies no time to catch a break.
Having occupied Eos and instigated a fight between Sadalmelik and Chiron, Chang-Sun and the others finally got the chance to fight the Imperial Family without the interference of <Horoscope>.
We have to eliminate the Imperial Family first before we can completely knock Arcadia down. Jins eyes gleamed menacingly.
But Eos warp gates to other planets have all been blockaded. We cant just fly out to the planets atmosphere either, Arin, who was listening to their conversation, said.
Living up to their reputation of being at the zenith of magic, Arcadias planets mostly relied on warp gates for the transportation of people and resources. Now that the Arcadian civilization had lost Eos, the Imperial Family naturally responded fiercely and aggressively.
[The Arcadia Empire has put Eos under lockdown!]
Arin showed Chang-Sun and the others the message she had received.
Claaap!
The world around them changed to footage of Eos and what was happening around it. Eos, which was relatively small compared to the other planets, was currently surrounded by numerous spaceships. Above the spaceships, Celestials who seemed to be the <Horoscope> Star Signs were staring daggers at the planet as they exuded sacred brilliance. Their eyes were so full of murderous intent that it seemed as if they would fly at the planet as soon as they were given the order.
[The Central Government and Twenty-Six Planets of the Arcadian civilization are reinforcing the siege on Eos.]
[Attempting to break through the siege would likely result in considerable damage!]
I can easily open and close a portal to bring someone into the planet, so it would be easy to get the Revolutionary Army to defend it. However, using a portal to go outside is Arin trailed off.
With her arms crossed, Arin scoffed, What do you mean what about Eos? Do you want me to sit something this interesting out? Not a chance. Besides, I have Stasha anyway, so I dont have much to worry about.
She sounded as if she trusted that Stasha would do great in leading the Revolutionary Army, which was assembling at Eos as they spoke. You also said that youre going to revitalize this galaxy. Shouldnt I be by your side for that? I cant miss something like this.
Chang-Sun nodded as he chuckled, letting Arin do what she wished to do.
Here we go.
Jin finished all the preparations and started the teleportation process.
Paah!
The portal soon flashed, showing everyone various sceneries.
[Attempting to teleport from Eos to the Planet Helath through a Backchannel!]
[Attempting!]
[Attempting!]
[Successfully teleported to the Self-Governing Province Prezia of the Planet Helath!]
A vast field of golden wheat replaced the snowfield, dancing along an endless horizon as sparrows flew above them. The scarecrows standing in silence seemed to be welcoming them.
Were here.
The sight of his home village stunned him. It had truly been a long time since he had returned.
Nothings changed
He worried from time to time that his homeland would be totally different from what he remembered by the time he returned, but it seemed it was all for naught.
The family has always been the same, Granduncle. Our homeland always welcomes us in the same place, looking the same as ever, Treville said with a smile.
Youre right.
Unfortunately, our homeland is no longer ours.
What do you mean?
This area is under the Hornan Familys control, Treville replied bitterly.
The Hornan Family? If so
The Hornan Family is no longer the loyal vassal family that you remember, Granduncle. Theyre now traitors who sided with the Imperial Family and stabbed us in the back.
Jin was about to reply when Chang-Sun quickly drew a rune in the air.
Someones coming, he said, noticing a group of people passing through their proximity.
[A Concealment Rune has been activated!]
Not long after, five riders holding the flag of the Hornan Family made their horses speed up as they passed by Chang-Suns group. For some reason, they were heading to the Prezia Manor.
Granduncle!
Yeah, somethings going on. Lets go.
Chang-Sun and the others quickly went after them.
