Vol 5 - Chapter 1 [Another Story...]

*Here we go with Volume 5 First Chapter. This one has 4k words, so brace yourselves. Oh, just a warning, a few chapters ahead have even more words, so this one is actually the shortest among the early few chapters.

**Enjoy!

 

"From today onwards, your name will be Bentar. Don't disappoint me."

"...Yes, Founder."

Somewhere in the basement of some abandoned castle, people are gathering. None of their faces can be seen without any light source, but everyone knows who and where each of them is standing. The first one to talk stands on a pedestal while the other one kneels in front of that person.

The Founder is what the first person called. This person doesn't have a fixed appearance, voice, or emotion. Each of this person's words represents a different persona. No one knows the true identity of the Founder but they all know that this person is close to an absolute.

"Karmat died. His death disrupts the order of assassins around the world. Bentar, your first task will be regaining control of the assassins and thieves. You can do it however you want but do not repeat Karmat's mistake. Before you go, talk to Biesta."

"Yes."

The other person, Bentar, hurriedly stood up and went to one of the walls in the basement. Like everybody else, he didn't find it hard to move around among the rubbles in this darkness.

"Should we worry, about Karmat's killer?"

Biesta took the opportunity to ask a question. Her tone shows no fear.

"Yes. K hasn't returned yet, and the killer immediately disrupted my [Monitor]."

The Founder replied shortly.

"Where did he die?" (Biesta)

"Somewhere in the south. The Otherworlder's kingdom." (Founder)

"!! T-then, should I send my babies to overwatch that place?" (Biesta)

"...No. We have a priority target right now. Tamak and Solderet, you two will control the border behind the scenes. The two entities have grown rapidly so we have to control them too. Although the third one has gone from my detection, focus on those two first."

"Can I satisfy my hunger while at it?"

Someone who stands on the right side of the room, with his deep voice, asked a question. The room vibrates slightly from his voice. This voice belongs to Tamak.

"Without drawing any attention to yourself." (Founder)

"Kukuk! Of course!" (Tamak)

"..."

Solderet, on the other hand, silently accepts the task.

"Sixth and Rominous, both of you will control the information. Prioritize in helping Tamak and Solderet." (Founder)

""Yes!""

"For others, keep a close watch on the rest of the eggs. Wait for further instructions. That's all." (Founder)

Everyone left as soon as the Founder ended his sentence. Of course, everyone was wondering why they gathered in that basement but no one dared to question it so they left silently.

The Founder, who is still in the basement, went deeper and reached a door to a room. Writings can be seen on the door but since it was a rotting door, some of them are missing and the only words left are "Our Savior ### The Pope."

[What are you?]

As soon as the Founder enters the room, he is greeted by a floating soul, as well as several high-level spells.
