Chapter 216 Aagi Family? How do you know that?
“Where do we go?” Signy said.
“Sven told us that the Doom Order is on the right side, and I have some unfinished businesses with them. Come with me for the time being.”
Arthur was not someone that needed help to get his friends back and kick the ass of those bastards, but he could not let them alone.
The possibility of them using the unconscious Sven as a sacrifice and exploring the place before him was high.
Not that he would not share the treasures with them, but imagine if the door is permanently locked after the sacrifice. What would he do?
The best course of action was to make them follow him for now, so he would have a way of controlling them.
“Okay.”
Arthur had showed them his power, so they agreed to follow him without problems.
So, the group went towards the right side, opening up yet another door that was massive.
Those doors were not as gigantic as the front one, but still had 10 meters of height, which was huge when compared to the small doors humans used.
The moment Arthur opened up the door, a voice echoed from inside, “Sven? You are finally here. We have been waiting for you- “
Whoever said that had a look of disappointment the moment its eyes were set on Arthur and the unconscious Sven.
“Hello Doom Order. How are you?”
Behind the door, lots of people from the Doom Order stood, some seating while the others talked among each other, trying their best to make the time pass.
There were other doors after that one, but the Doom Order had already explored that area and there was nothing, so they stuck together in the closest door to the way out in case something bad happened.
These members had robes and masks that differed in color according to their rank, and in the middle of the room stood the person behind everything.
Arthur gazed at all of them, and only the leader had a somewhat decent strength, but the rest was a pure joke to him.
Most were five circle mages, with a few being six and seven circles. It was a type of strength that was in the apex before the central continent, yet in the eyes of Arthur, it was nothing.
He was already at the tenth circle, and the difference between each level was immense. Even if all of them joined forces and tried to attack him, it would not be enough.
The leader opened up its eyes and looked at Arthur. That person was the strongest there, being an eighth circle mage.
For that reason, his perception was higher than everyone else, and the moment his eyes locked on Arthur, he was shocked.
He could not tell Arthur was in the tenth circle, but he could tell that Arthur was stronger than him, which was something incredible for that region.
“A guest, come, sit and drink with me.”
The other members from the Doom Order did not understand why their leader was acting so respectfully towards the old man that appeared out of nowhere with Sven.
They guessed it was someone with a similar power as their leader, so for that reason, they also acted respectfully toward him.
Arthur said nothing and then started the link with George so that he could see and hear everything.
“Finally, brat. I was getting bored here. Wait, who are those maniacs in masks staring at you? Are you part of a cannibal cult or something?”
“Cannibal what? No, these are the people from the Doom Order, remember?”
“Oh, right, right? What do you need?”
George was eager to help Arthur in any way he could, as that would ensure Arthur would thrive and reach greater heights, thus allowing him to be free.
Also, he was bored, so being able to watch some of the outside world was already awesome for him.
“We are inside an invisible palace in the land of the giants where supposedly there is an item that helps our bloodline. It must be good or else the Doom Order, who is controlled by a bloodline mage family, wouldn’t be here.”
“Your guess is correct, and that should be the case. Also, this person right there, that I assume is the leader, has some fluctuations of an energy similar to ours. If I am not mistaken, the family behind him must be the Aagi family.”
“Aagi family?”
“Yes. The Aagi is also a giant that came after the Monlog, which means it is weaker, but the Aagi is not that weak. If you take all the families beside ours, the Aagi is ranked at the top three regarding power. If they are here, then this time must be fantastic, and I cannot wait to steal it from them.” George said.
The more he talked with George, the more his horizons expanded. Now he was sure the treasure inside that place was worthy of his time.
Arthur looked at the leader and said, “drink? I am too old for that. Let me do a proposal. Want to hear it?”
The leader from the Doom Order had a bad feeling, but he still answered yes.
“I know you are an eighth circle mage, and some here are seventh or sixth. That is quite the achievement, but in front of me this is just child’s play. Maybe if all of you were at the ninth rank… no, even with that, you would still be dead.”
“So, you can all leave, and I will spare your life.”
“Hahahaha, are you crazy, old man? Do you know who you are talking to?”
“Of course I do, but someone from a weak family like the Aagi cannot act like that here.”
Silence. When Arthur muttered those words, not a single person inside that room understood it, except the leader, who was shocked.
Someone from the Aagi family had possessed the body of that person and was controlling the Doom Order from the inside.
But that was something no one should know about, yet an old man seemed to know even the name of his family.
The leader did not answer for some time, lost in his thoughts. He tried his best to figure it out how to assess the situation, as the person in front of him was unknown, yet knew things others were not supposed to know.
What he could do at that point was perhaps have a private conversation with the other party, away from the rest, as the things they would talk about were secrets.
So, the leader got up from the chair he was sitting, and looked at Arthur.
“Can we talk in private?” The leader said.
Arthur smiled, and followed the leader to another room close to where they were.
