Chapter 759: Chapter 757-How To Deal With The Traitor.



"You seem to have a plan?"

Lyra spoke, her narrowed eyes focused on me. The situation, in a sense, was dire for the whole of the archery association. We can still push Draxton forward to the war council, but that would end up ruining its reputation and trust, severely affecting everything, which would be very bad for us.

Plus, it would disrupt the life that was going on here. This association is relatively newer than the others. Yet, it has risen towards the top, which means my master has already made a lot of enemies, and they wouldn't hesitate to strike at the moment of weakness, which means we have to be very careful about how we do this.

My gaze landed on Malek, the only one who seemed not to be giving off any sort of reaction but the one who was being deeply affected by it. Don't let the silent voice and rough look fool you all; the man is a very big softie and considers everyone here like family. Quite the reverse feeling for a guy who follows assassination-like killings, but in his heart, he is a good guy. "How well can you hide your own assassination killings from being found?"

My question made the QuiverLors frown, but Malek focused on the question as a whole as he replied.

"I have a few. Every assassin killer does a very different move that doesn't mark them at all." His words earned a nod from me as the plan flowed through my mind. In fact, if I were to use some of my connections, I would easily deal with this, but then it would take away my goal of bringing all of them together while ensuring their true loyalty. Using the ones just in this room is the best way to deal with the issues ahead.

Thus, with a smile, while leaning onto the chair, I produced a file from my spatial ring, flipping it over to Malek, who, upon receiving it, started to read it. Feeling the curiosity of those around, I spoke.

"It's a file containing all the dirty things that need to be removed, courtesy of our friend Draxton here."

My words formed the plan slowly in the minds of those gathered, and the first to speak was Eldon.

"If you are not careful about how you do this, our association can come to be seen as weak by the people."

His words made me nod at him as I responded.

"I understand, and that's what we will do. In fact, I don't just want their deaths to be for nothing; I want their deaths to push our association forward."

My words had a deeper meaning. Leaning forward, Eldon spoke, his eyes shining.

"Go on."

Smiling that all the focus was on me, I spoke.

"You guys know about my special ability to cure corruption, right?"

My words earned their nods, to which I continued.

"Then that means I might have a bigger affinity for finding out if things are corrupted around me. Why not spin a story around that and end this traitor in our midst as a hero to the world?"

Lyra nodded as she spoke this, impressed at me as she gave me a respectful nod, her words continued by Eldon as he spoke.

"Draxton's death might affect us in the short term, but for the long-term goal, it will only be more useful in pushing our reputation and strength forward. Not bad; it's a very smooth

plan."

The respectful nod from Eldon was another level. After which, I turned to look at Malek, who finally spoke.

"You want me to discreetly get rid of the worst ones so they don't survive at all, start the flames of the movement, while also killing the rough ones in public too, right?"

His rough voice earned my nod as I spoke.

"Can you do it?"

To which he replied:

"Piece of cake."

Thus, with that, I looked at Sylvanna, the one who had stayed the most silent. Sure, she has a little more moral compass than the others, but she isn't stuck up like Faelan, so she kept listening to the plan, her gaze a bit dazed as she looked at me and spoke.

"Looks like I was wrong about you, and I am sorry for it."

First, she apologised to me, to which I smiled at her, showing that I didn't take it to heart as Sylvanna continued, her gaze fixed on me as she spoke.

"While your plan is good, what can guarantee that the war council won't pick up on it? For if the truth is ever found out, there would be consequences for trying to cheat the war council."

Her words had their meaning, to which I, looking at Sylvanna, spoke.

"It's true, but what's also true is that every plan has its own problem. If you trust me, I can

guarantee you that the war council won't find out about it. Have trust in me, as I have trust in all of you that you will achieve the outcome of this goal. Trust me as you trust my master, and

I will trust you as my master trusts you all."

My words had their effect as the stern face of Sylvanna melted, and she nodded at me.

"Okay, I will trust you."
