Chapter 361: Nelson is...



361 Nelson is...

As Alex had predicted, Thiveapia Kingdom immediately informed Mount Hua Sect and the Zhou Kingdom. They were told that the Thiveapia Kingdom had rescued Princess Evelyn from Heavenly Sword Sect. She was still locked down in her room because she was brainwashed by Heavenly Sword Sect.

Upon receiving the information, Mount Hua Sect and the Zhou Kingdom immediately marched toward Heavenly Sword Sect. Following them was Thiveapia Kingdom.

It was also the same for the Southern Kingdom. The moment they received the news that the three influences had moved, they also started marching toward Heavenly Sword Sect. They only needed around three to four days until they arrived at Heavenly Sword Sect.

However, just a day after marching toward the Heavenly Sword Sect. Thiveapia Kingdom suddenly caught the wind on Alex\'s scheme. With the message left by Nicole as their sole proof, they immediately halted their movement.

The moment they found out that the men they had stationed to guard Evelyn were killed, they panicked.

They barged inside the meeting room where the king and his ministers held a meeting again.

"Bang-!"

"Your Majesty, bad news."

The people were bewildered.

"What is it? Did something happen to Timothy or Lena?" He asked. He did not need to ask about Evelyn since she was under surveillance.

"We… we found the men that we stationed on the top of the castle, specifically on top of Princess Evelyn\'s room dead." The soldiers said.

"What did you say?!" Luke had a scare of his life as he looked at the soldier who brought the news dumbfoundedly. He could not believe his ears.

"An-and, Princess Evelyn is missing!"

"What?!" Luke rose from his seat. Even the ministers were also startled to hear something like this. All the ministers thought the same thing, the castle that was impenetrable was infiltrated. They never had a case like this in their entire life and even from the previous generation.

"Search for her. Search for her immediately!" Luke shouted.

"My-my king." The soldier called him again as he did not finish his report.

"What? Don\'t tell me there is more? How useless are our guards in the palace?"

"No… We have gotten piece information left by them. They said, \'this will be your last warning. We can bring her out like this is also means we can kill all of you without anyone noticing.

"Our win is already guaranteed as those fools are coming to die. Shall you point your sword to us, it will be the start of your eternal doom. From: Spirit Nest." The soldiers recited Nicole\'s message word by word.

"Spirit Nest? I never heard of them!" He was so furious. He looked at his ministers who were clueless about this \'Spirit Nest\' thing too.

"Immediately investigate them. Use everything we have to locate Evelyn as well as those bastards who kidnapped my daughter."

"But, my king… they… they said…"

"I don\'t care. I never heard of Spirit Nest, they only tried to scare us!" Luke shouted.

But before the situation became more chaotic, Matthew who also joined this meeting stopped him.

"Wait Luke- Ahem, I mean please wait, Your Majesty," Matthew said.

"What? What do you want to say, Matthew? You do realize that Evelyn is in danger." Luke shouted.

"Just calm down a bit."

"How can I calm down!"

"Although I don\'t know if what I am thinking is right or not, I think I have a clue about this Spirit Nest."

"What? Do you know something?" Luke was astonished. Even the ministers in the room showed dumbfounded expressions.

"Yes. Evelyn brought a masked man for the auction. He threw 77 million Spirit Stones without batting an eye. And according to Luna, he is the one who taught Evelyn, Alexander Sirius."

"What? Is that Alexander Sirius?" Luke heard that name again. It was the name that Evelyn often spoke of.

"I think, since they were able to infiltrate this castle, we can safely assume they will manage to bypass our army and arrive at Heavenly Sword Sect. I heard Evelyn want you to stop participating in this battle, what is your decision, Your Majesty?" Matthew asked.

"..." Luke could not answer as he gritted his teeth.

On the other hand, Alex immediately told Charya to release the news about Evelyn who was on the way to their sect. Charya also knew about it and had informed the sect master. And with Nicole as her guide, they managed to bypass the Thiveapia Army without a hitch.

On the second day, the other three influences had no choice but left the Thiveapia Kingdom to their own problem. After all, their agreement was marching together as long as their Princess Evelyn was safe.

However, past that point, they did not care anymore. Since they already fulfilled the agreement, even without the Thiveapia Kingdom, their three influences should be enough to attack Heavenly Sword Sect.

However, Neither Mount Hua Sect as well as the Southern Kingdom knew about what happened to the Zhou Kingdom on yesterday\'s night. Because of their position and agreement, they thought the Zhou Kingdom was still moving toward the Heavenly Sword Sect and continued marching forward. However…

...

When the first night came, Zhou Kingdom stopped in a huge plain called Hed Plain. This plain was a vast plain. They only needed to cross this plain before arriving in Heavenly Sword Sect\'s territory.

In their commander tent,

There were 20 Martial Lords drinking wine. Most of them were 8-Star to 9-Star Martial Lords. With two 10-Star Martial Lords.

"Hahaha… I think that brat is running with his life. He would just abandon this sect." One of the 10-Star Martial Lords said. The brat he was talking about was Alex. They had been informed about the purpose of this temporary alliance and that was Alex.

They were going to kill the entire Heavenly Sword Sect. If Alex was there and they were the ones who managed to grasp him, Alex would be in their possession and they were free to kill him or whatever they wanted. It was the same as Mount Hua Sect, but for them, they would most likely have Alex as their disciple who had made an Oath of Full loyalty to them.

However, If Alex was not in the sect. After they destroyed the sect, they would make a full-scale investigation to search Alex\'s position. After that, the condition would be the same. Fortunately, Alex was still in Heavenly Sword Sect according to their spy.

"He is still in the sect. And Heavenly Sword Sect is not making a huge move nor they are trying to scatter around. I don\'t know whether their sect master is a fool or not, but this is convenient for us." The other 10-Star Martial Lord said.

"Haha… that\'s right. It will be convenient for us. We can destroy them to the root if that is the case. That brat has killed many of our brethren and this time, we are the ones who will kill his fellow disciples. However, what about their sect master? I mean, he is a 2-Star Martial King." The first 10-Star Martial Lord said.

"Don\'t worry, Mount Hua Sect will handle him. After all, in this campaign, even the Mount Hua Sect\'s sect master personally made a move." The second 10-Star Martial Lord said while laughing. Even his messy blue hair became messier. He thought Mount Hua Sect was a fool.

"Are you sure about this? Why don\'t our Martial Kings also move? We have four of them currently." He narrowed his eyes and asked in confusion.

"Idiot. Our Martial Kings are not that easy to move. In fact, they should conceal their presence until the Grand Tournament. At that time, we will also get the back up from the Brynhildr Kingdom and strike all of them to the ground."

"That\'s right. My instinct has been tingling. I want to see the time where our Zhou Kingdom will rule the entire continent. I almost forgot that with our four Martial Kings, we will be able to be the first influence on this continent.

"However, if the four sects make an alliance and strike at us, it will be a problem. Especially the Heavenly Sword Sect who has been sniffing us lately. This is also another reason why the higher up decided to destroy Heavenly Sword Sect first."

"Yes. However, there is a disturbing rumor around the court. It seems, the higher up sent a few Martial Kings to Heavenly Sword Sect. However, none of them come back." The blue-haired Martial Lord said.

"What do you mean?"

"I don\'t know. This is just a rumor I have heard. It seems the higher-ups sent us to this place to check if Heavenly Sword Sect has a secret weapon."

"What? Don\'t tell me, they are sending us to death?" The Martial Lord was dumbfounded. And even the other Martial Lords who heard this suddenly gulped down. This was the first time they heard about it.

Well, it was to be expected they concealed this matter. After all, if they believed such a rumor, the situation would be chaotic.

Even the blue-haired Martial Lord only heard about it by chance. "I don\'t know. I am just lucky enough to hear it by chance. But, I still don\'t know whether it is true or not."

"That must not be true. After all, according to the higher up, the plan will start at the Grand Tournament."

"Yeah, you are right. If the Heavenly Sword Sect really has such a powerful person or weapon, they would immediately strike at us. And even the information would be spread to the other kingdoms or sects. Seeing there is no reaction even from the Heavenly Sword Sect. That rumor must be false."

"That\'s it. The rumor is wrong."

They were trying to convince each other. Unfortunately, unbeknownst to them, their life had been forfeited as a shadow appeared inside the tent. The shadow appeared behind both 10-Star Martial Lords.

The shadow then turned into a human. He had long black hair tied into a ponytail. He wore a blue shirt that got covered with a blue jacket paired up with blue jeans. It was Nelson.

When he appeared, no soldier could react a single bit as his appearance was too sudden. He was holding a single-edge sword. It had no special appearance but they could feel the cold steel. The sword suddenly covered with a black torrent before he swung his sword.

"You-!"

And before they managed to react, their heads were already flying. The other Martial Lords immediately rose from their position and took out their weapons.

"You bastard!" They released their Spiritual Energy simultaneously.

"Who are you!"

Nelson remained calm. He raised his hands as suddenly many tentacle-like objects appeared from the ground. They immediately restricted the movement of the Martial Lords.

"What is this?!" The Martial Lords tried to break free but to no avail. They could not move away from their position.

Nelson appeared in front of one of them with his blade on the top of his head. The blade was covered with a dark torrent once again and Nelson finally swung his blade to one of them.

However, even though the black tentacle-like objects could restrict them in their position. They were still able to move their hands. The Martial Lord in front of Nelson immediately raised his giant ax to repel Nelson\'s attack.

"I am Spirit King\'s first assassin," Nelson said as he swung his sword down.

"Clang-!"

In Heavenly Sword Sect,

Alex was still cultivating as usual before Anna came back to the room.

"Anna?"

"Alex, I have got news for you," Anna said.

"Oh." Alex nodded his head. But before that, he remembered something. "Anna, You know about my UR EXP card, right?"

"Yes."

"I use it on Nelson, not Leoz, or you. Are you disappointed?" Alex asked.

"Nelson, huh…" Anna only sighed.

"So, you must be disappointed by my decision. I thought by leveling Nelson up, he will work more efficiently." Alex looked down.

"No. I am not disappointed. In fact, you chose the right person. Do you ask him for something so you decide to level him up?"

"Nothing, I just ask Nelson to kill people to stop the Zhou Army." Alex asked, "What do you mean about that? I chose the right person?"

"Well, if you ask Nelson to assassi- I mean, to kill people. I am sure he would do it at night."

"At night?"

"Yes. After all, in the night, he…"
