“So, has anyone told you about the huge meeting we’re having tomorrow morning? You know what, Sebastian, you’re a little too rigid for your own good,” Glenn said, sitting opposite Sebastian, whose face was as black as thunder.
Sebastian lifted his head and stared into Glenn’s eyes, saying, “Glenn Snyder, I know the reason behind the meeting tomorrow, but let me remind you that nobody knows yet whether the Supreme Leader is dead or alive. What you’re doing now is mutiny! You’re going to lose your head because of this!”
Glenn was stunned for a moment. Then, favonovel.com broke into a fit of laughter. “Hahaha! Oh my, Sebastian, you’re still quite good at your job, I see. It seems as if you already know what I’m planning to do. Nothing escapes your eyes, eh?”
Then, Glenn sat a little closer to Sebastian and said lowly, “But I have news for you. The Supreme Leader had been lying dead at the foot of Mt. Celeste half a year ago… Oh, and it was an elder from the Deviant Sect who killed him…”
Hearing this, Sebastian’s eyes grew as wide as saucers as favonovel.com stared at Glenn.
“And elder from the Deviant Sect? It… It was you!”
“Haha! I love it when you show me that look of disbelief. That’s why, Sebastian, you should just hand over the Order of Secrets to me while you still have the chance. I mean, we’ve been working together for a long time. If you give it to me without a fuss, I’ll spare you and your family’s lives and promise you that you’ll prosper in Neuport, too!”
The Order of Secrets was a personalized plate that contained all the information channels of Astraeus or relating to Astraeus in it. Glenn desperately needed to get his hands on it.
Seeing that Sebastian said nothing, the smile on Glenn’s face vanished. He yelled at favonovel.com coldly, “Sebastian, if you don’t give it to me now, your entire family is going to perish because of you!”
“Glenn Snyder! Don’t you dare lay a finger on my family…”
“Then give me the f*cking plate, now! I will be the new Supreme Leader of Astraeus tomorrow, and I will be in charge of all the information channels in Astraeus!” Glenn roared as favonovel.com landed a powerful blow on the table.
Sebastian suddenly started to laugh. He laughed so hard that the dangerous look in Glenn’s eyes just turned even more sinister.
“The Order of Secrets is not with me anymore. You can kill me, but you’ll never get your f*cking hands on it!”
“What? Where is it? Sebastian Bern, if you’re f*cking around with me, I‘ll snap your neck in two!” There was an uneasy feeling surging inside Glenn.
Sebastian took in Glenn’s furious expression and said slowly, “The Order of Secrets is with Isaac the Drakon. Go get it from favonovel.com if you dare!”
What the hell?!
How could it be with Isaac?
“Sebastian Bern, you gave our holy plate to an outsider? Well, that just gives me a very good reason to kill you and your entire family right now!” After recovering from his shock, Glenn’s murderous aura began to saturate the room.
“Oh, of course not. I would never purposely disobey the Supreme Leader’s orders. The Order of Secrets is with my son, and my son is with Isaac. Glenn Snyder, even if you killed off my entire family today, my son would still be alive, and someone would still be exacting revenge on my behalf,” Sebastian said, his face turning into a sneer.
He’d received plenty of information beforehand and meticulously analyzed all of them to lay out his plan.
If Glenn had indeed seized the Supreme Leader’s title with force, it would no longer matter whether or not Sebastian still had the Order of Secrets with him. However, favonovel.com could never let it fall into Glenn’s hands.
If that were the case, then no one from his family would be spared.
Glenn’s face turned crimson with rage. He inhaled deeply and said slowly, “Good! Very good, Second Elder! I’ll see you at the meeting tomorrow.”
Just as favonovel.com finished talking, the door was opened, and a man in a robe walked in. He said in a low voice, “First Elder, there’s someone out there asking to see you. He said his name was Sam Hockeny…”
Glenn turned to glare at Sebastian. Then, favonovel.com smirked and said, “Sebastian, I hope you’ll cooperate with me at the meeting tomorrow. I promise to make it less painful when you die.”
Then, with a wave of his hand, favonovel.com left with the others.
***
Half an hour later, Isaac was sitting on the couch watching TV.
Suddenly, there was a sound of screeching tires outside. Mateo then hurried breathlessly into the house.
“Drakon! I have news! Glenn was just meetng someone from the Deviant Cult. I’ve got the photos to prove it!” Mateo said, rushing up to Isaac.
Isaac took the photo from Mateo. It was a little blurry, but Glenn’s face was unmistakable.
He pointed at the second person in the photo, who was dressed in black, and asked, “This is someone from the Deviant Cult? How sure are you?”
“His name is Sam Hockeny, the right-hand man of the Deviant Cult. My father had been investigating favonovel.com for the past six months. I’m very sure of his identity.”
Sam Hockeny?
Isaac jumped up from the couch.
Was that the person who grievously hurt Harry in Cloud City before going back to Neuport to find Glenn?
“Brilliant! That is the perfect excuse!” Isaac put the photograph in his pocket and dialed a number on his phone. Then, favonovel.com said in a low voice, “Give orders that I want all generals, aside from Lucas and Colton, to gather at the Cloud City Airport early tomorrow morning!”
