Betrayal

The day turns to night. the sky was getting dark, only the moon was the main source of light above the sky of Centrical City's castle.

At that time, Schlanger and Arlod were in the hallway inside the castle. The hallway was so dark, only candlelight was attached along the hallway wall.

The two of them were talking about something.

Arlod said, "how is this Schlanger? Are you going to join forces to help counterattack Neiter?".

With a doubtful face, Schlanger replied "if it weren't for the agreement of the meeting this morning, I wouldn't have sacrificed my troops in vain just to help that bastard Hedorven."

Arlod agreed with Schlanger because he knew, if the strength of his army were to be mobilized to attack Neiter in the Gorgon, it would be an opportunity for Vitelyn's rebels to attack him. Because Vitelyn's condition is full of rebellious conflict.

Schlanger was the same, he felt why helped Gatelain because since a long time ago, Gatelain and Prusiudeus had often fought.

Then Arlod said, "I may have deployed only a few troops." Schlanger also agreed with Arlod, he would also deploy a small number of troops. They only follow the decisions based on the voting results of the meeting.

Then from a distance, came a 35-year-old bespectacled man with a white collared shirt. He carried a torch in his hand. He walked over to Schlanger and Arlod.

They both looked a little surprised to see the person who carried the torch.

When the person carrying the torch got close to the two of them. Arlod said, "it was you, Cleist".

Cleist is the supreme leader in the Archipelagos Nation territory. The Archipelagos were a nation consisting of several islands. This nation is located in the northwest of the continent Regia. It is in the western sea of ​​the continent Regia. Logically, the nation from the United of Regia that was first attacked by the Neiter was either the Gatelain or the United of Archipelagos. Because those two regions were the western ends of the continent of Regia. Which, if the Neiter Nation were to attack the continent of Regia, surely they would first land on Gatelain or the United of Archipelagos. Because this world consists of three continents, namely the continent of Lefia to the east and the continent of Regia to the west. And to the North is a small, uninhabited continent, namely the island of White Land.

With a confident tone, Cleist said to Schlanger and Arlod. "I have an offer for you".

Schlanger and Arlod were confused, because, Cleist suddenly came and made an offer. Because Arlod was curious, he said "what offer do you mean?".

With his short brown hair, Cleist lightly touched the glasses on her face. He said, "come with me to destroy the United of Regia".

Suddenly Schlanger and Arlod were startled, Schlanger couldn't believe what he had just heard. then he said, "what are you saying? don't joke".

"The offer is quite simple if you come with me, you will become the rulers of the whole region of Regia, if you don't come with me, you will die". Cleist bluntly made an offer, or rather it was said to be threatening rather than making an offer.

Schlanger and Arlod were offended by what Cleist said. They both got ready to attack Cleist. Before that, Schlanger said "don't you be arrogant, you think you can kill me?", Replied Schlanger.

But suddenly, Cleist gave off an aura of intimidation that was so strong. Even Schlanger and Arlod had a hard time keeping up. Cleist dropped the torch in his hand. Then he took out two black wings on his back. He flew a little with both wings. While saying "think again, Schlanger. Not only control a few regions in the regia that you get, but powerful power like me too. You just have to come with me and submit to the Neiter nation. You will have everything".

Schlanger and Arlod were shocked and startled, even slightly frightened. because Cleist's power is so powerful. They can't even fight it. In fact, they also saw for the first time that humans could have wings and could fly.

Arlod was surprised to say "Neiter you say?". Then Cleist answered. "Yes, I have submitted to the Neiter, if you submit to them, the nation will not be destroyed. Even I was given tremendous power, as you can see now, is not this a very profitable deal?".

Then suddenly Schlanger laughed, and he said "hahahahaha, interesting, very interesting. All right, as long as I have the advantage, I'll follow you."

Arlod also agreed with Schlanger, because in truth they were both very greedy. Hearing Schlanger and Arlod agree with his offer, Cleist smiled. Then he removed his intimidating aura and hid his two wings.

A few weeks ago, when the Neiter Nation attacked the gorgon harbour, at the same time, another Neiter army also attacked the United of Archipelagos. Cleist, who was there at that time, gave resistance to Cleist. However, he lost power to the Neiter nation. He suffered defeat and he was taken, prisoner. But he was given an offer by the Neiter nation to destroy the United of Regia from within in exchange for his release, and of course, he was given tremendous power.

But the news of the defeat of the United of Archipelagos is still not heard in Centrical City.

Arlod said, "then what do we do?". Cleist calmly replied, "haha, this is our chance, because several leaders are going to their respective territories to gather troops. Only Hedorven and King Enrico remain in this castle. We must kill them both. ".

Heard Cleist's plan. King Schlanger laughed too. "Ahaha, very interesting, I also really want to kill both of them".

Finally. The three of them also plan to kill General Hedorven and King Enrico tonight.

The day was getting darker, that night was precisely 9 pm, in General Hedorven's room. A troop wearing dark blue armour meets General Hedorven, the troop is a delegation of Cleist troops.

One of the soldiers said "General. There is an invitation for tonight's meeting from the Cleist leaders".

General Hedorven was a little suspicious. Because why the meeting is being held tonight. He also asked the troops. "What? Isn't it too late? Why not tomorrow?".

Then one of the envoys replied, "this meeting is so urgent and must be done tonight, if it is done tomorrow, no one can attend the meeting because the leaders will go to their respective kingdoms to gather troops".

The reason given by the envoy made sense, causing General Hedorven who was initially suspected to believe it. He also said "fine, I'll be there".

Finally, a messenger left the General. Then the General called Lui.

Lui also came over to the general. Then the general ordered Lui, he said: "Lui, call Jim now to my room, this is very urgent".

"Yes sir". Lui replied. Lui immediately left the castle, he walked towards the special guest building, where Jim, Neil and Jill were here.

Jim, Neil and Jim are right in the living room inside the building. Then they saw Lui coming over to them.

Without further ado, Lui immediately said to Jim "sorry Mr Jim, you are called General Hedorven now".

Jim was surprised because that night General Hedorven called him. Then Jim said, "now? Isn't it too late?".

Lui also answered, "yes sir, because it is very urgent".

Jim wondered what was so urgent that he was called General Hedorven. Then Jim said. "Alright. I'll be there".

Lui also escorted Jim to General Hedorven's room inside the castle. And Jim came to Hedorven's room. Then Hedorven said, "OK Jim, now come with me to the meeting room place for the leaders' meeting, because you are now our strategist."

Jim felt a little curious. Because of why the meeting was held so late. However, he did not ask General Hedorven the reason. He only followed Hedorven's orders. Jim said, "all right, General".

Finally, General Hedorven, Lui and Jim went to the meeting room. Two minutes later they arrived in the meeting room. They both entered the meeting room. In the meeting room several people already came, namely, Cleist, Schlanger, Arlod, Enrico and her daughter. They sat on the chairs of the meeting room.

"Lui, why are you still at the door?" Said Arlod. Lui, who was only a waiter, was shocked. Then she said. "I'm sorry sir". Lui quickly left the meeting room. All the servants left the room.

Usually, the servants, especially Lui, always attended the meetings of the leaders. Because he prepared the food for the meeting. But not this time, there was no food at all at the table, Lui wasn't told to prepare food. Even Lui was ordered out of the room. Then Arlod closed the door to the meeting room.

This made General Hedorven slightly suspicious of them. General Hedorven also said, "Where are the other leaders?".

Schlanger laughed and replied, "hahaha, this meeting doesn't need them."

Hearing Schlanger's arrogant reply, Hedorven was deeply suspicious. He stood up and said "what are you planning ?.

Then Cleist arrogantly said, "this is our plan". Quickly, it gave off an aura of intimidation and brought out its two black wings.

"Iron Skewers"

Quickly, Cleist waved his wings. From the two wings came out large iron sticks. And the large iron stick attacked General Hedorven, Jim, king Enrico and his daughter.

[Yamaguchi: Active]

[Yamaguchi skill experience increases]

[Yamaguchi [passive] Lvl 2 (200/500)]

The attack speed was too fast. Even Jim didn't have time to see the attack, he suddenly got hit by the attack. Luckily, Jim still has Yamaguchi Skill.

General Hedorven can block this attack with his longsword because the speed of reflexes and movement of General Hedorven is faster than the attack just now. Because he is a light element magic-user.

However, it was different from King Enrico. He actually knew about this attack. However, he reflexively used his body to protect his daughter. He was also hit by this super fast iron stick attack. He also fell on the floor. He was so deadly because the big and fast iron stick had pierced his heart. But quickly, King Enrico froze the blood flowing out with his Ice Release. But that only helped a little, as he was so weak from the fatal attack. Seeing this, her daughter carried King Enrico while crying.

"Father ..." said the daughter while holding her father's head with a loud cry.

Jim went straight to King Enrico's body. He also opened his system window.

"Shop"

"Item"

"Heal Potion"

Jim immediately gave Heal potion to King Enrico. However, the Heal potion did little to restore King Enrico's condition, as the attack resulted in a fatal wound to King Enrico's heart.

General Hedorven was furious, he gave off a white aura, his body was slightly radiant. he drew his longsword. He is now filled with anger. He said "you bastard". He also held the longsword handle with both hands. He counterattacked on them.

"Lightning s***h"

General Hedorven attacked them. He slashed them with his longsword horizontally. The s***h gave off light like a crescent moon as a result of the s***h.

However, with a quick reflex, Cleist flew forward. He seemed to show off his strength. He covered his black wings with iron. Then move its wings forward. The wings covered Cleist's front like an iron shield. He also managed to fend off a strong attack from General Hedorven.

General Hedorven's attack was easily pushed over by Cleist. Then he opened its wings again, while saying. "Hahaha, what is this weak attack? Do you deserve to be called a general?". Cleist arrogantly mocked General Hedorven.

Schlanger and Arlod were so surprised by Cleist's defensive power. Normally, Hedorven's attacks were strong and very difficult to block. It was as if Cleist's power was on a different level.

General Hedorven was furious that his attack was easily deflected by the Cleist.

Arlod who was behind the Cleist. "Just give up Hedorven, join us with the Neiter army, you will be forgiven and will be given great power like a Cleist. You've seen it for yourself, haven't you?".

Heard the word Neiter. Jim, Hedorven and Enrico were so surprised. Because some of the leaders of in united of regia have submitted to the Neiter nation.

Enraged, Hedorven answered Arlod. "You traitor. I'm not willing to join you, I'd rather die than be a curling dog like you".

Jim was also furious when he heard Neiter's words. He also stood up. He intends to help General Hedorven Fight. He raised one hand. Without further ado he immediately attacked Arlod.

"Pastoralist"

"Black Capsule"

Jim imitated the Schlanger move he had previously received, he used it to attack Arlod. Arlod's entire body was covered in black circles. Jim also squeezed and held his hand tightly. The black circle like a ball attacked Arlod from within. But the attack is very draining which is owned by Jim.

[pastoralist skill experience increases]

pastoralist [unique] [active] Lvl 3 (100/5000)]

Seeing that Jim could carry out the attack previously carried out by Schlanger. Everyone present was shocked. Because he can exactly imitate Schlanger's skills.

Schlanger, who saw that, was not silent. He then neutralizes and eliminates the magic directed at Arlod.

Finally, the black orb that covered Arlod disappeared. However, Arlod who received the attack was covered in blood, all of the blood pouring out of his body. It was as if he had just received the torture from that black capsule.

furiously, Schlanger said. "You bastard, how can you do it?". But Jim didn't answer either.

However, luck was not on Jim's side, now he didn't have the strong skills to fight them. It only has one Third Pastoralist attack left. Because he can only use the skill twice a day. He thought that if he attacked Schlanger using the Black Capsule, it would be useless because Schlanger was the one who possessed this skill. He must easily break this attack.

Then, King Enriqo, who had originally been lying, was now trying to stand up to help Hedorven and Jim. Then suddenly she said to Jim. "Boy, I have one wish, get my daughter out of here. Protect him. Let me and Hedorven arrest them."

King Enrico requested for Jim to take his daughter away. said that because he knew, that the opponents they faced this time were the leaders. And the strength of each of those leaders was very strong. Plus the Cleist's power suddenly increased drastically. He felt that the chances of winning were very small. Plus he is now wounded and almost dying.
