.....

Everything was calm in the Magus World as unknown to many, a hazardous plot is being hatched against one of the alphas of the Central Continent.

The epic account and series of events which would shook the whole central continent and jumble the landscape would be initiated in a very unassuming place, but the convergence of expert here would even alarm Monarchs.

A chandelier hung loosely and emitted a dim orange light in the hazy night. The light from the street lamps was diffused, making one feel sleepy.

Beside the chandelier was a bar that was already closed. A 'Thank You' sign was hung on the door, the surroundings quiet.

After a day's hard work, the residents nearby had already entered slumber in their tiredness. Even the drunkards, tramps, and the like had found their own cosy kennels, not intending on sleeping outdoors on the streets in such cold weather.

At this moment, the sound of boots tapping against the ground echoed through the area. A tall figure walked out of thin air, coming before the door and knocking on it.

*Thud Thud Thud!* The dull sound carried a unique rhythm and charm.

The door opened after a while, exposing the face of an old lady. There was a slight reverence amidst her vigilance, "Sir! You're finally here!"

"Hmm" The person walked into the bar and took off his hood, exposing his original appearance. His handsome face was strange, and his long black hair casually stuck to the back of his head. He seemed very youthful and enigmatic. Mysterious spirals spun continuously in his black pupils, even a single glance able to draw in a person's soul.

After the successful task in the Spirit Mark World, the clone immediately send all of the Sovereign Seats to Leylin who secluded in another period of experiment and studying further strengthening his bloodline, Leylin had worked incessantly on increasing his power level. He was slightly delayed on his appointment with Melinda because of this.

However, Leylin felt like all this was worth it. Spending more time to magnify his strength, and was definitely worth more than the cost. After all, he was here this time to deal with a Breaking Dawn Monarch! This was the highest level of existence in the central continent, and Leylin could not afford to not be more careful especially when he is aware of the truth behind the Monarch and her true prowess.

Leylin called all of his high ranking personnel to Magus World and left the Warlock Union without notifying anyone. The attack plan is a secret event which is highly unlikely to be revealed to other warlocks and even if they were to be suspicious no one would dare bar his leave without any notice.

After entering the bar, Leylin followed the old lady to a cellar. Passing through a helical dark and damp passageway that smelled like rot, Leylin finally saw Melinda once more.

"Leylin! You're finally here, we've been waiting for a long time!" Melinda's eyes sparkled upon meeting Leylin, and she spoke a little coquettishly. The moment her gaze fall on him, she was a bit startled inwardly as she felt a dangerous feeling and a sense of alarm which immediately dismantle any discontent she had for the absence of Kilvish.

"You seem very enthusiastic despite a faint disappointment." Leylin's gaze twinkled, and gazed at her with a faint smile. Melinda felt a chilling sensation as if all of her secrets are bare naked before his calm and cold eyes as she shivered. Leylin immediately looking at the few other 'people' in the room.

The old lady had already withdrawn respectfully. There were three other strange figures remaining in the room besides Melinda.

One of them was a hefty fellow who wore black armour, and another was a woman whose entire body was wrapped in a black Magus robe.

The last one didn't even look human anymore, and was simply a black shadow in the mirror.

'Even you cannot stop me from fulfilling my destiny, and if you dare intervene then another Monarch might fall from the grace of pinnacle in Central continent.' Leylin looked at the shadow in the mirror attentively, and could explicitly sense that he was not using any kind of clone. He couldn't help but utter a deep sigh at the fact that he wasn't able to see through the disguise of a monarch so easily but it's not like Leylin has no ways to do that, the Purple Astral Vision would perhaps be able to see through it but the disguise was impeccable nevertheless.

'*Sigh* Sure enough, a monarch who has completely overtaken a World cannot be looked down upon.'

The Spirit Magus is not a very common breed, the spiritual force of a Magus was tyrannical like no other. Even after death, there was a very high chance of transforming into some sort of evil spirit. And if this kind of evil spirit still held their rationality, they could learn spells and become a Spirit Magus!

And for a Morning Star who possessed soul force, transmuting the soul was but a small operation.

Although many had heard some things about Spirit Magi, that circle was very narrow and remote. It's unexpected that Melinda would actually be able to get one here, and a Radiant Moon Magus one at that.

Although Leylin knows that the Spirit Magus that Melinda used to know isn't this one before them.

"Your insight is still as good as before!" Melinda looked at Leylin understanding gaze towards the Spirit Magus and gasped in admiration, "This Jin He was once a good friend of mine. The other two are Clarke and Joanna, assistants I've hired."

"The Twin Gemini is famous throughout the continent, It's amazing that Melinda would actually be able to bring you here as well!" Leylin greeted Clarke and Joanna with a knowing smile but his eyes were glued on Clarke looking at him with intrigue. Leylin was actually interested in this duo as well knowing their ancestry and uniqueness.

According to the intelligence, these two Radiant Moon siblings assisted each other in the central continent, and each was fairly famous on their own. They were also the rare type that didn't have any organisations attached to them.

Once a Magus gained complete control over a certain law or power, they would also enter the rank 7 realm.

Leylin was faintly excited in his heart. He can clearly discover the path after rank 5.

Magi practice spiritual force before rank 4, soul force before rank 7. Rank 7 is when one has gained control of a certain law?

Based on what Melinda said, whether one had begun to comprehend laws made up for the greatest power distinction among Breaking Dawns. The Monarchs of the central continent had obtained the strength of the worlds they conquered, and each began to touch upon a specific law. This was why they were called 'Monarchs.'

The Blazing Flame Monarch obtained extra strength from the Origin Force of the Fiery World, and began touching on the law of fire.

Once he completely wielded the power of flames, that was when the title of Monarch could be held high in the sky, when one could advance to become a rank 7 Magus that controlled laws.

The knowledge and memories that Magi at this level of strength had about laws was very beneficial to a Radiant Moon Magus.

"The Blazing Flame Monarch's power is at a low? How long will this last?"

"At least a month, and it could approach a hundred days. Three months, effectively." Melinda laughed like a little fox, "Because of certain reasons that everyone knows, the Radiant Moons under the Blazing Flame Monarch like Carol and Eugene are dead. This means his defences are definitely weak."

Leylin stayed silent. Those two Radiant Moons along with their leader had died at his hands or Kilvish.

"I've invited all of you here so that we can take care of the Blazing Flame Monarch in one go. Do you have any questions?" Terrifying energy waves rippled out from Melinda as she spoke, showing a strength at the peak of Radiant Moon. Her voice had lost its childishness, the callousness now as chilling as winter's ice.

Clark started by yelling out, "Alright! As long as I can have my vengeance on the Blazing Flame Monarch, I'll do anything!"

"Brother's decision is my decision!" Joanna watched her brother, her eyes full of tenderness.

"Keke Law Comprehension Crystals will be distributed without any issues. What's so bad about doing this?" The Soul Magus in the mirror laughed coldly.

"How about you, Lord Leylin? The Blazing Flame Monarch seems to have you in his thoughts, plotting so many attacks against the Ouroboros Clan" Melinda seemed rather knowledgeable regarding this matter.

"The Monarch has been suppressing us Warlock for a long time and has also showed his ill intent against my own clan, I'm joining in as well. One thing though, how will you ensure the benefits are distributed evenly without any internal conflict."

Having said this, Leylin's eyes twinkled as he watched Melinda intently.

Meeting his gaze, Melinda could only laugh wryly, "I can't guarantee that the operation will definitely succeed, the opponent is a Breaking Dawn Magus after all. However, I can ensure that the earnings from this will definitely be distributed evenly. We can even sign a contract under the Trial's Eye! With our strength, the Trial's Eye we summon will definitely be a clone with its own thoughts. It won't glaze over any loopholes that we can make use of!"

"Alright then." Leylin nodded his head. Every word of a Radiant Moon had enough weight to it that one could consider that a contract in itself. With the restrictions by Trial's Eye, he had no way to break the agreement.

But Leylin knew that Melinda never meant to kill the Monarch in the first place which is the biggest scam of this deal but Leylin didn't care because all of the other would be killed anyways and the deal won't needed to be upheld in the end.

The siblings would die, the Spirit Magus is just a disguise, Melinda won't participate in sharing of benefits hence, this contract is just a mere showcase and nothing more.

If not for that then Leylin would definitely not sign for such a deal because after all, the Trial's Eye that they could summon was a highly ranked existence that had its own sentience, and was linked to the main body at all times.

With such a Trial's Eye, the solution of the Nefarious Filthbird's feathers would no longer have any effect unless a clone of the Filthbird itself descended as well.

"Good! Since everyone has agreed, let's discuss the plan." A streak of light flew from Melinda's hand to the air, forming a translucent screen.

"My intel says that the target isn't hiding in his nest, but instead holed up in one of the world cracks surrounding the Fiery World with many mazes constructed around him. Our objective this time is to launch a surprise attack on his nest Dz City. The opponent's astral gate and the coordinates to the Fiery World are all there. Afterwards, we'll force our way into the Fiery World and kill the Monarch." Melinda waved her arms resolutely, extremely determined.

She glanced at every one of them, "There might not be a single Radiant Moon in Dz City right now. There's probably just a group of Morning Stars subordinate to the Blazing Flame Monarch watching over it. After we take it down, we can obtain all the wealth of a rank 6 organisation"

After they listened to Melinda's plan, a light glinted in the eyes of the Magi in the room, save for Leylin. An organisation with a Monarch at its head, its members had plundered the central continent for thousands of years. Even if only a small portion of that wealth was in Dz City, it was enough for rank 5 Magi to grow quite wealthy.

"There's no time to lose. Let's set off now!" Melinda's hands were on her waist, her chest puffed out and her voice back to its original childlike tone.

A few streaks of green light rumbled past, and Melinda and the others completely disappeared from the underground room. Endless darkness engulfed the area.
