Chapter 748 - Mission: Yodan 2

Landon and Sirius helplessly gathered around Astar who refused to leave the table of food.

"Brother Landon, I've read the doc.u.ment you gave last time.

And in truth, I'm utterly shocked.

I never knew that my stepmother was this powerful.

The last time she attacked me, I thought that she might've just gotten lucky.

But who would've thought that the woman who is known as the weakest lady in Yodan was a wolf in sheep's clothing?

If your reports are correct, then that means that she intends to deal with the entire royal family mercilessly within these next few years.

Still, what I don't understand is why she had to wait this long if she was this powerful." Sirius asked curiously.

Without a doubt, that woman probably wanted to aim all their forces at him first, since he was already ruler of Yodan.

From there, she would probably relax a bit and then deal with those who would probably succeed him.

But if she had this power, then why wait till now?

"That's because her brother wasn't who he is today."

"Her brother from your reports, the deadly Master K?"

"Yes, it's because of him.

You see, he had been fighting internally within this secret society for over 20 years now.

And it was only recently that he truly succeeded and became the head of the entire society.

He's now in control and can do away with anyone he chooses.

He is the Temple of Dragmus' supreme ruler, whose real name is unknown.

He's someone who made his predecessors shrivel in fear.

And now, he wants to use his nephew and his followers to take over the entire of Yodan, as well as the more of Deiferus.

And to do that, he needs to get rid of some stumbling blocks like you, brother.

That said, you're lucky that they didn't find out about your capabilities before you became king.

Because if they did, no matter how busy Master K was, you would've been dead by now.

Fortunately, they focused more on your older siblings rather than you."

What?

.

Listening to Landon, Sirius who also looked calm, was actually in turmoil underneath it all.

How powerful were they?

Blood pumped through his heart when he envisioned this mighty underground society.

What made him a little bit fearful was that he only heard about them from his father on his coronation day.

No one seemed to know a lot about this powerful underground society, not even his father.

All he knew was that the royal family had been sending them money yearly for the past 400 years.

But where did they come from and who were they?

This Temple of Dragmus was definitely a strong enemy.

He initially thought that he would be able to change Yodan in his time as ruler.

But looking at the power he was up against, he couldn't help but worry a bit.

Landon saw through his worries and smiled.

"Brother, rest assured.

I'll be helping you, so there's no need to worry about this plague.

In short, before November 1st, this problem of yours will be over."

"_"

Sirius quickly cleaned his ears and thought that he heard Landon wrong.

This society has been in existence for over 400 years now.

So how could it be destroyed just like that?

It was impossible!

Maybe he heard wrong, right?

Yes, that should be it.

His ears weren't working properly.

"Brother, I'm sorry, did you just say November 1st?"

"Yup!"

"Oh!!!

You mean November 1st, 10 years from now right?"

"Nope!

November 1st, this year."

"But, but, but, that's just 4 and a half months away!"

"Hmhm.

It will be done."

"_"

(0^0)

Forget it, this brother of his was insane!

Aster, who had been merrily eating his food, quickly turned his attention to the troubled Sirius.

"If Brother Landon says that it can be done, then it can be done.

After all, brother Landon is a superhero!"

"Hahahhahahhahahaa!

That right Brother Sirius, I'm a superhero.

So why are you worried?"

(T_T)

.

Sirius looked at the duo helplessly.

Here he was worrying and cracking his brain on how to solve his issue, while these nincompoops just ate happily without a care in the world.

He even began wondering if Landon had been affected by Astar's carefree disease.

Sigh... Landon said so, maybe he had a plan?

Landon chucked and tapped Sirius' shoulders playfully.

"Brother, I was born to win.

So how can I make promises that I'm not sure of?

Trust me, this isn't a problem for me."

"Fine!

But just make sure that you don't get hurt."

"Of course brother."

"Good!

That said, do you need any help?"

"Hmmmm

Yes, but not in the way that you're thinking.

My men will fight the major battles.

But, I need you and your team to arrest all nobles who are members of this underground society.

Most of them are based in the Capital and major cities around Yodan.

And I have a list of all of them, in using their crimes.

It will be solely your job to give them punishment based on their crimes."

"Heh... it looks like your Baymardian prison will welcome new members again.

That said, do you have a female sector?"

"I'm guessing it's for some of your stepmothers right?

Don't worry, we have a female prison too.

So they should feel right at home when they get there."

"Hahahahahahaha!

That's good!

As for the families of those nobles who are members of the temple, they won't get any punishment since they might not know anything about this temple.

After all, if someone as well resourced like myself didn't know about it, it's less likely that their families might."

"I think so too," Landon said while nodding.

Of course it was true.

Sirius didn't know this, but there was a rule that only those initiated into the temple could know about it.

The only exception was Yodan's ruler who had to send money to the temple's Finance minister, who also happened to be a well-known noble in the Capital.

That said, the rulers still didn't get any knowledge about the temple.

They just knew that it was powerful.

The Temple had separate public buildings that were nowhere near their hidden bases.

These public buildings were used for loaning money, taking in slaves and whatnot.

Funny enough, these public buildings had a different temple name which everyone knew of.

But no one would've thought that it was related to such a hidden underground sect.

In short, the temple of Dragmus acted like Batman in a sense.

In the day, in the public eye, Bruce Wayne.

And at times, it was Batman.

It used its dual identity to get by throughout these years.

Only those initiated in its temple knew of its hidden secrets.

"Brothers, now that we've gotten that out of the way, let's talk about the incoming attack 2 weeks from now.

Here's what we are going to do."
