Bicky stood at the gate of the meeting room and looked at Leylin with a respectful gaze as he kept musing about John Farlier. Leylin didn’t turn his gaze as he asked Irritatedly, “Do you have something more to say?”
Bicky was startled and with a faint beat of sweat on her forehead she said very gently, “The person who is the head of the Lighthouse of the Night has been waiting here. Would you like to meet him?”
“There’s no need for that,” Leylin waved his arms. He’d never been interested in those who were so brazen in looking for benefits. Leylin knew that there is no need to meet and assert his dominance before anyone, even through fundamentally Leylin is the kind of person who enjoys to be stronger than others hiding from the powerful while bullying the weak, but as a Rank 6 Breaking Dawn Monarch thoughts and ideas of a few mere Rank 3 is nothing interesting.
Not far in the future the whole South Coast would be full of Magus above and at Morning Star Magus rank and these little insignificant characters would have to hide somewhere in the cracks of South Coast barely surviving. Noticing him sinking into silence immediately after, Bicky was about to retreated tactfully.
“Wait a minute!” Leylin called out as he swept his hand and an object appeared on his hands, it was a beautiful granite white wand. He idly stroked the thirty centimeter long wand. The wand was made of ivory and capped with gold. There were runes over the grip and it radiated an aura of holiness.
Leylin stroked it for a while as he silently muttered an incantation in a language that Bicky couldn’t understand but she still felt an awe inspiring energy strom called forth and manipulated by Leylin, “Here!”
Leylin threw the wand away as if it was worth nothing but Bicky immediately grabbed it and caress it with her eyes wide open.
“This is a gift from me, you have provided lot of information about your adventure and travels to the organization which is very helpful. And you also shared the details about that place.”
“This is!?”
“Its nothing much, you deserve it.” Bicky wanted to speak expressing her shock but she just closed her gaping mouth, although she don’t understand the true value of this wand but it’s level is definitely much better than the low-level magic equipment gifted by Leylin to Beast Tamers. Such an item would be even sorted by Morning Star Magus and to them it’s nothing sort of a huge Trump Card.
Leylin casual settlement and distribution of such an item, let her shocked and dumbfounded. She had no idea that for Leylin who have grasped the law of primordial chaos to a certain degree and has alchemy knowledge far surpassing a grand master, such an item is worth nothing in his eyes as he can create it easily.
Bicky didn’t say anything but deeply bowed and left. After a long while, he sighed deeply. “Fate have changed for a lot of people but some are still the same. I guess John was never meant to live a very long life.”
Leylin himself had no interaction with him, he had no person to look upto neither in the past life nor this one, if he didn’t reach his current status he might even be a bit jealous of the fatherly love that the real Leylin had but right now there is no ripple in his heart whatsoever. He just mildly asked himself what it actually meant to be a father and could he ever match someone like John in the way he loved his son irrespective of the fact that he was a silkpant good-for-nothing.
“Father huh?” Leylin swept his head through his hair and regained his composure. His life and decision have changed the life of a few people.
Anna who was a slightly foolish person have reached such a level, Ivy an abandoned seemingly worthless person stands at a lofty realm. Bicky through her perseverance and his help have changed, Kroft has gained new lease on his life.
Even through Leylin made many decision that changed their life and most of them were completely whimsical but no one can deny his presence. According to the flow of things Anna should have been an abandoned maid left with a small organisation as a way out that Leylin prepared while he was an acolyte.
But obviously neither was this the same Anna as in the story nor was he the same Leylin, he never needed something so meaningless as a safety net especially when granted with such supernatural gifts. Leylin had the ability to change her fate and others too and with just slight arrangements he was completely redefined their existence.
Leylin suddenly remember the time back in his early days where he proclaimed to himself that Anna and others would not succumb to nothingness they would develop as long as he wants and as much as he desires.
Leylin kept smiling indulging in nostalgia for a while, before returning to the luxurious room that the Abyssal Bone Forest Academy had prepared specially for him.
“I should introduce Kemoyin bloodline in the remaining Farlier line and also the Kemoyin’s Pupil since I have returned.” Leylin said, nodding inwardly to himself, Leylin has planned to carry out Krupp’s modifications back in the Rebelhearts but then he decided to give this benefits to all of the family line.
After all, the south coast branch of the Farlier Family needed a powerful ability to prosper. More importantly Leylin don’t need to waste his time and carry out this experiment personally, he can just simply order his subordinates. He has already decided to make South Coast his headquarters and hence all of his personnel would shift here.
The astral experiment can be carried from anywhere, the location doesn’t matter. This transfer would centralise his whole scattered organizations setup and with the commerce from subterranean world it would only prosper.
With regards to changing the bloodline of the Farlier family it wasn’t much to think about, it wasn’t true that everyone with the Kemoyin bloodline would become a rank 4 Warlock. Even within the Ouroboros Clan there were many with Kemoyin bloodlines but only Gilbert and the other two dukes had reached Morning Star. Even Bevis with his rank 6 bloodline wasn’t guaranteed to reach the Breaking Dawn realm and become a Monarch. He only had the potential to do so.
While descendants that inherited Leylin’s rank 6 bloodline only needed to work hard and would easily reach rank 4 and even 5, whether they reached rank 6 was still a question but Leylin won’t share his bloodline.
As someone who had gone through this process himself, Leylin understood clearly that advancing as Magi did not only require a large amount of resources and hard work. Luck was a very important factor as well.
Other Magi did not have an A.I. Chip at the side like Leylin and his favoured minions; they couldn’t run simulations and predict possibilities for advancement.
Once Leylin transported a Kemoyin bloodline into the family line, his ability of control as Adhishesha would give him great control over them. His control could only be hampered by the Snake Dowager since as the progenitor she owns the origin blood of the Kemoyin Clan.
‘But as some so lofty and dignitary would she be bothered to meddle for mere Rank 4 bloodline, my pathway is not of an Emperor so I don’t count as a competitor for her. Lita is a Rank 5 Kemoyin Emperor but she relinquished her innate control, The only way when she would be offended is when someone compete for the origin control, something which endangers her intrest otherwise she won’t be bored enough to care, but sooner or later we are bound to clash too…’ Glints of intelligence flashed in Leylin’s eyes.
“I am not not even a Rank 7 yet I unknowingly directly and indirectly made a few dangerous enemies.” Leylin thought with wry smile but obviously even if he has a rerun he would choose the same option.
Leylin has choosen the path of law of primordial chaos and even if there is comprehensive difference to the law of chaos but it’s still clashes with it following the same yet more profound origin, which directly means that he has made an enemy out of the Nefarious Featherbird.
As a haybringer of Chaos Leylin would not be let unchecked by Trail Eye either if he clashes with it, since the law of order and contract is the nemesis of chaos.
And as for the Snake Dowager, as a snake warlock Leylin would definitely have to offend her too.
“Too much trouble, too many variables! An undefined path of an unrefined mortal, should the God rise partial or be total; A dance for the Titans, chance for the God! devil, mischievous and the queen someone unexpected may turn the tide and change the scene…. I like it!”
….
In front of the metal door many Magus were guarding, even the most ordinary guard was peak rank 1 while the others were Rank 2 elite troops who stood with rapt attention as they did their jobs flawlessly.
Not far away, there were many rank 3 Magi undulations transmitting from a group of people as they stood at the gate. Looking at them every guards eyes were filled with reverence and respect.
*Sou! Sou! Sou!*
As the guards were sternly doing their job immediately a fluttering sound echoed as the Rank 3 group immediately broke into genuine smile and step forward to welcome the incoming figure.
As the guards were about to step forward a spiritual force undulation was transmitted. Immediately after, the Magus standing leftmost among the Rank 3s hummed coldly, eyes emitting command and indifference.
Soon, a human figure appeared in the air, flying towards the metal door.
Looking at him no one dared to even breath as everyone including the Rank 3 kneeled with one knee on the ground and called solemnly, “Your Majesty!”
This is the entrance to the pocket dimension of the Eternal Plains, and it’s protected by the RebelHearts.
“Your Majesty!” As the human figure reached there his mere presence and a slight leak of his unfathomable power pressed on them like huge boulders, and the Magi who had been on their guard had their right hands on their chest as they greeted him.
Among the Rank 3s was Freed as knelt respectfully and shouted the arrival’s name, “We welcome, great…”
“Thats enough Freed, I want to enter the Eternal Plains pocket dimension. Make preparations immediately!” Leylin ordered annoyed. The whole sharade of everyone bowing to him was really good and all, but these long bootlicking monologue cliche entrance wasn’t upto his taste.
Freed nodded and stood by the metal door. By rights, the whole Eternal plains is the property of RebelHearts but even still the place is very huge and have to be manned, the one who lead the guards here is the Rank 3 Bloodline Knight Freed. His strength is obviously more than enough for this job and the combined force of the stationed guards make sure that not even a rat can get inside.
“The Eternal Plains pocket dimension… it’s been a long!”
Leylin watched the large metal door before him, eyes full of nostalgia. The RebelHearts headquarters is made in the pocket dimension itself, as Leylin used formations to connect it defences with the pocket dimension but for obvious reasons he didn’t create it in the centre which might have lead to future troubles.
The organization headquarters is a bit far from his current destination and hence he directly came here.
The Eternal River pocket dimension had been discovered when Leylin was just a rank 1 Magus. And he set his eyes on this wealth of treasure even back then.
Looking at the detailed patterns on the large metal gate that towered into the clouds, Leylin couldn’t help but recall the scene when he brought upon a blood storm.
“Yes, Master!” Freed immediately placed his hands on the surface of the large gate. The metal gate immediately rumbled, emitting a dazzling radiance.
Two rays of glaring light streaked across the sky, suddenly pushing their way through the Eternal Plains pocket dimension.
Light flickered continuously in Leylin’s eyes. Ever since RebelHearts displayed their strength to subdue the light and dark Magi, he’d essentially become the uncrowned king of the south coast.
The Magi vied with each other to complete the tasks he wanted done. Whether they were a light Magus or dark, just a single command from him would make them work desperately for him.
Such an inconceivable thing had happened due to Leylin’s power. It caused many uninformed people from the lower classes to cry out in incredulity. There were even some busybodies who proclaimed that the south coast would soon welcome an era of peace.
With the power of the masses at his beck of call, Leylin quickly made progress dealing with all of his arrangements.
Leylin and Freed moved at extremely high speeds, and it was but a short while before they arrived at the centre of the pocket dimension. A continuous building complex was present here, with the symbols of different organization in the surroundings. These were clearly large-scale ruins.
There was a momentary uproar in many of the camps present at their arrival, but soon after a white light transformed from Freed and everything went to normal.
Leylin arrived in the sky above a patch of the ruins and looked over everything. The buildings were simple and unsophisticated yet solemn, carrying a unique appeal. They were arranged in a surprisingly logical manner, and seemed to surround a mysterious spell formation.
Freed hurried to the front to lead the way. With those him leading, Leylin would of course be unobstructed in the remains.
“This place is a base that emerged after the destruction of a large gate pocket dimension during the Magus war. At one time, we thought that the secret of the person who made the Eternal Plains pocket dimension was here, and fought many battles for it and we eventually claimed the whole plains. In the end, we didn’t venture since order to stay our hand by Master. ”
“We didn’t took anything but still created a log of item found for future reference, initially found many good things in these ruins, even remains of the ancient Wisdom Tree. We finished our exploration of the place for many years, and we’d discovered even more incredible items than that.”
As Freed spoke, Leylin explored the buildings one after the other to arrive at the centre-most ground.
This was an unnamed temple. There were large white stone pillars on all sides, and with no door and no walls, it could be entered from any direction. The roof exposed a large circular gap where the sky could be seen through the dome.
The hall was absolutely empty, it was only the ground that retained even more complicated and detailed patterns.
