Chisk doesn"t know that his brother is trying to contact him, because Sam and the team tried their best to stop every single messenger that wanted to approach Chisk and made them disappear. They killed some, they imprisoned some in the chessboard, but not a single message was pa.s.sed to Chisk.
But after this week, Sam imitated the writing of Leader 2 and modified the scroll. He had to use some special tricks to change the message so that the scrolls would still have the spiritual imprint of the Leader 2.
Sam never expected that such a forgery would take such a long time.
Kiran disguised as one of the captured messengers and took the scroll to Chisk.
Inside the scroll, the original message was for Chisk to stop the madness and go back to Leader 2 instantly, but the current message is about praising Chisk for his contributions and telling him to expand the territory even more and even faster.
Sam made sure that they recorded the interaction between the "messenger" and Chisk. He doesn"t know whether he would be able to use it later, but it is better than having nothing when the situation arises.
Chisk met with Kiran and showed his brother"s message. He wanted to use his brother"s support as well as Kiran"s support to expand faster and Kiran immediately granted his wish by agreeing to it.
The whole realm was subverted into chaos as Chisk rapidly took one city after another and Leader 1 couldn"t bear it anymore.
A realm that was originally shared by Leader 1 and Leader 2 is currently only being occupied by Leader 2"s forces. This is obviously a slap in the face for him.
And all the development just happened in another week.
This change caused Leader 2 to become anxious. Out of six since two are in a war, the rest didn"t want to involve themselves in this s.h.i.tty situation and get themselves messed up.
It is almost like a pact.
Leader 2 was extremely careful and only sent messages to Chisk because he didn"t want to give the other leaders any wrong ideas. If by any chance they misinterpreted his presence in the territory of Leader 1 as a sign of his alliance with leader 3 and all the activities conducted by Chisk were misunderstood as his own actions, things would get tricky.
The remaining three will definitely think that Leader 2 and Leader 3 are planning to steal the organization for themselves and they would gang up.
But this sudden rapid occupation made him terrified. With Sam and his team"s presence, the communication between him and Chisk has already gone down the hill. Both are getting the messages only Sam wanted them to get.
So, he was a little unaware of this sudden expansion.
After he learned of it, he couldn"t control himself anymore and decided to secretly go and meet with Chisk so that he would stop his madness.
But as soon as he entered the city that Chisk is in, a large ice structure appeared outside of the city, and inside the ice, structure is the bodies of the a.s.sa.s.sins and branch managers under Leader 1.
When Leader 2 saw this he was shocked.
Because he is an ice elemental user and the way the a.s.sa.s.sins were killed was actually his own method. This is his way of doing things when he encountered some interesting targets.
After the initial shock, he realized something. When his brother is not responding, he already understood that there might be an involvement of a third party in this whole mess and now that he has seen this with his own eyes, he is sure of it.
Now, this news will definitely spread, and anyone from the Black Curtain who saw this ice structure would definitely think that he is the one that made all this mess. This is tantamount to declaring war against Leader 1.
He wanted to destroy the structure immediately. But at this moment, the person he wanted to talk to for over two weeks just came over.
Chisk had a grin on his face as he came running towards his brother.
"My Brother, you are indeed a level above me. Look at the ice structure. I didn"t expect you to be bolder than me."
*PAK*
Leader 2 immediately slapped the face of Chisk and said.
"What the h.e.l.l is wrong with you? Why are creating such a mess? No, I don"t have time. I need to destroy that structure immediately. I will deal with you later."
He immediately ran out of the city and started destroying the structure. But he is not relieved at all, as he knew that the problem was already created.
He came back and asked his men to capture Chisk.
They went to the Black Curtain branch and he asked.
"What the h.e.l.l did you do, you fool? Do you want me to die?" Leader 2 said exasperatedly.
"What do you mean brother? Our territory expanded half a realm because of me? Shouldn"t you at least show me some appreciation?"
"You want appreciation? Your piece of s.h.i.t, don"t you know how much mess you have created?"
"What kind of mess are you talking about? I didn"t attack each and every city. They are all attacked by some third party, I only took over following the rules."
Listening to his answer, Leader 2 doesn"t even know whether he should scold his brother or not.
"You are indeed stupid. Can"t you see? Even if there is no proof, there is no third party"s presence that is visible to anyone and every city was destroyed in the same way and every time you were right on time to take over. Do you really think that everyone would be as stupid as you? If it was one or two times, n.o.body would care whether you are really connected to the attacks or not, but it happened over a dozen times. Now they don"t even have to think about the so-called evidence.
And where is this third party that you are talking about? I want to meet them."
"He said he would meet you tonight. We need to wait."
"Tonight? What is his name?"
"He said it was Ash."
"Why did he even made a deal with a guy like you?"
"He said that it is revenge for his boss?"
"What is his boss" name?"
"I don"t know."
"What organization do they belong to?"
"I don"t know."
"What realm did they come from?"
"I don"t know."
"Just what do you know about them?" Leader 2 asked in an exasperated sigh.
He is fifty percent sure that the other party is just playing. Not giving any details regarding them other than a name and that too, the name doesn"t even have a last name, even if it had, they are not sure whether it is true or not.
He tried to ask all kinds of questions but there was no use. The only thing Chisk was able to answer is that they are rich and powerful and they are the ones who destroyed the bases.
They waited till night and went to the meeting spot. But no matter how long they waited there is no sign of another party. Now, Leader 2 is completely sure that his brother was played. He looked at his brother in exhaustion he doesn"t even have any energy to be angry at him.
Sam and his team already left after Leader 2 arrived.
They didn"t even bother waiting to see their reactions and how they would proceed after they placed the ice structure outside the city.
They just left and this time, they went to the core areas of Leader 1"s territory.
Kiran disguised as a different person and went to the Black Curtain Inn. He is extremely nervous.
At least he acted so. He held a recording crystal and spoke to the manager in a nervous tone.
"S... Sir, I am a low-level hunter. I went hunting for some beasts this morning in the forest and I saw someone cleaning a battlefield from a cliff. It seems like someone has fought intently and the whole place is a mess.
After I left, I went to check the place to see if I could gain anything, but on my way, I found one of them on dying breath. He seemed to have been injected with a special poison. He gave me this spatial ring and asked me to give it to you."
The branch manager frowned and took a look at the contents of the spatial ring. Looking at the recording crystals, he frowned and took a look at them.
They are all the interactions of the messengers and Chisk. He was dumbfounded.
"Describe the person that gave you this."
"His face is unrecognizable. But he wore black-cloaked attire."
"Where is his body? Show me the way."
"I caught a glimpse at the people who killed them, sir. After disposing of the dead bodies they came searching for him. I don"t know if he is still there. But I can show you the spot."
"Quickly, lead the way."
