Chapter 137: The Abyssal Shadow-Vail Hall [4]
On hearing his Little sister — Sia. The Elder brother was just about to reply! But another voice echoed!
That made him pause..
"Yes! Eldest brother Dian! I wholeheartedly agree with Little Sia! Here." The sound was deep and masculine but was also tinged with a roguish tone simultaneously.
"Remember I informed you that after we accepted the kill order! I went ahead and investigated out target of assassination."
"Yeah! You did. But what of it? Eian." Dian asked! His tone was heavy- Alright! Full of confidence and assertiveness.
Considering it was him who had built this whole Assassination Hall from scratch! Making the Hall the third strongest Assassination Organization in whole of Elytheria.
Who had made it possible for even his two siblings — Eian and Sia! To advance to the third phase — The Divine Phase.
Otherwise for them even breaking through to the second phase would’ve been impossible- nothing but a dream.
His extreme confidence came from his own achievement while his assertiveness came from his experience.
He was someone who always thinks about the consequences of his actions and doesn’t loose his composer much often.
And most of the time prefers to remain silent since as a shadow it was within his very instincts to observe- quietly and silently.
In addition! Dian’s two siblings! Both Eian and Sia also had absolute faith in him! Trusting him to an almost blind degree.
And were perhaps so dependent on him- to the point that without feeling his presence for a few days even living would become stressed, uncomfortable and restless for them.
It was there very nature and essence as shadows after all.
Than again it was also the same for Dian. As long as he could make this little brother and little sister of his- Happy.
Than Dian was willing to do anything for that. He doesn’t even care about the subject of there happiness.
So as long as they felt good than Dian wouldn’t even mind! Even if his two little siblings slaughtered millions for that happiness.
Considering they did not cross his boundaries- meaning something ’He’ didn’t like or has specifically forbidden them for doing so! Than everything was a done deal for him.
The whole reason that Dian accepted this particular kill order despite his gut screaming at him that it would be his biggest mistake if he did was also because of his little sister.
Since the exorbitant price that was presented before him even before the kill was really not something that Dian could ignore.
The prize was a Divine grade natural resource of the Shadow-Attribute. The greed for such a prize was something that his heart really could not endure.
Something that would hundred percent make Sia advance by a whole ascension level all within a short- no! Very short span of 10 years.
"Even though I didn’t find that mortal in the mansion but.. "
Dian snapped out of his thoughts on hearing Eian continue.
His silvery gaze focused on him! His chin rested on his palm while he sat with poise! Listening to his words calmly.
"I still sensed the presence of three Pseudo-Divine’s in that mansion! They were there for the sole purpose of protecting that mortal?"
Eian gulped. "And I have to say brother! The spirit- no! The aura of those three beings was unlike anything I have ever felt. It was so dense and heavy that it actually made my heart palpatate in trepidation! Brother?"
He shook his head in defeat. "I got the feeling that even if all three of us ambushed them or attacked them head on with ourselves suppressed to the Pseudo-Divine Level.. Sigh! In both the situations we wouldn’t even get to deploy our Law Domain’s before we’d be obliterated without even knowing how."
"I’ve never met beings such as them in my entire life." Eian uttered solemnly.
"At that time I finally realized why that anonymous person even gave us a broken Divine Grade Artifact on top of the payment."
"And why that person specifically asked us to send our best second phase member if we wanted to succeed. That is why I think this whole thing is also fishy since why would a Divine go to such lengths just to kill a helpless mortal and why would beings as strong as those three girls were protecting him?"
"I know all that too! Eian.. " Dian said. Looking into his brothers uncertain eyes. Making him sigh inwardly.
"I’ve also deeply pondered about this kill order! About perhaps.. maybe this whole thing being an elaborate trap set-up for us.. By the other two assassination organizations. Eian."
"Regardless! You tell me.. would it had been really be wise of me- To reject the kill order despite knowing just how good of a boon the Shadow-Less Essence would be for little Sia! Just how good and rare such an opportunity was?"
Dian asked and without waiting for there response! He immediately answered the question. "No! It wouldn’t have and you both know it too."
"So stop your minds from uselessly worrying regarding what has already been done since it would do nothing but exhaust yourself."
"Understood! Elder/Eldest Brother!." Eian and Sia both nodded at his words! Putting the matter to the back burner.
"Anyways we would know more about this mortal when we get our hands on his body since the member we send for the assassination might be coming back anytime soon."
Dian said not knowing the brutal torture and torment the poor soul had experienced the whole night.
While they were here enjoying the immense profit they made from this single kill order not knowing about the calamity that would descend upon them.. soon.
A few hours later while Dian was meditating in his room. That was also just as dark as the previous bigger room.
His eyes balls moved in his sockets as he somehow started feeling a great sense of danger out of the blue sometime ago.
Making him unable to concentrate on the new ability that he is working on for the past few centuries.
Dian couldn’t understand why he felt such immense danger since he was literally the strongest being in this whole separate realm and no one beside a select few members knew about the realms location.
Thinking such Dian could only come to the conclusion that the sense of danger he was feeling might be coming from the ability he is working on.
’There could be some problems in the shadow structure and the energy flow of this ability that I’m unaware of and that might be dangerous for me! Nevertheless it shouldn’t be that harmful if it’s just that.’
He supposed that a failure or two might be what he needs the most right now! Perhaps at those moments of failure and mental-pressure! He might just get the last push that he needs for his ultimate success.
However as Dian was lost in his thoughts! His eyes suddenly snapped open! His hair stood on end! His pale-silver gaze widened in disbelief.
"What!?"
He stood up immediately- No! He flew!.
*Fwish!~*
His figure shot up like a cannonball breaking the ceiling of his room without a second thought!.
*Boooom!~*
Dian halted in the skies — Hovering! His disbelieving gaze focused on the figure of two heavenly beauties.
However on seeing the two figures he felt nothing but cold terror! His heart chilled in trepidation! Dian gulped unconsciously.
*Fwish!~* *Fwish!~*
"Brother!?"
"Elder Brother!?"
"So!~ "
