Blood Of Platinum
Chapters 313. The Traitor Who Became a Fellow
“I together the master formed a group called Rebellenarmee and our main purpose is to
drop your king family”
“All starts from seizing the weapon from the souls of our fallen friends that is Artifact including eliminating people into the possession of Artifact that is Mark Vermillion. Although the mission has failed”
“We are also targeting the descendants of the strongest heroes of the moment in addition to the owners of the Artifact that is you, Lucas Xelhanien and Rexa van Houdsen”
“And the third is to kill dirty blood. It was just a one-sided request from our Lady, but our master was in favor of her and my three friends would still be on that mission. They're gonna kill Xenon van Houdsen”
Lucas who listened said nothing and chose to think inwardly.
‘Although he said he had changed the plan to kill Rexa for reasons of family matchmaking, but he changed the target to Xenon because of Misha’
‘It turns out Rexa's intention and decision to break her engagement with Misha was the most appropriate step and it seems, the three of us no longer need to delay the planned visit to Earl Midford's residence tomorrow’
‘What a pity it will be like this. But..become rebels and lead them to bring down His Majesty King Lucario's.’.
Lucas finally tried to guess something.
“Does Earl Midford intend to become the new king of the Country?”
“Fast. Although I don't know the details, it certainly looks like that. Where is it possible that Earl will help us without a big goal also with him, right?”
Bingo! Good answer from Galactics. And with this, Lucas has gotten almost the whole picture.
Lucas spoke in his heart.
‘The names of intruders, their organizations and goals and the masterminds we have obtained. The rest just stay..’.
He looked at Galaktika and asked, “All the victims who were lost and kidnapped by you are, they are obviously dead. Given your explanation earlier, your organization must have used forbidden summoning magic or something like”
“What do you want to bring up? What kind of monster are you going to call?”
Galactica answered Lucas's question.
“According to the ancient book, there are some monsters that can be summoned with the sacrifice of human lives. One of the ones we managed to summon was a monster named [Shadow Ghoul]”
“Shadow ghoul has quite unique summoning requirements, that is, the more lives sacrificed the larger the size and strength”
“Shadow ghoul” Lucas narrowed his eyes
As the leader of the Magic Council, Lucas certainly knew that. He knows the black magic and rare magic that exists in his world and one of the monsters mentioned by the teenager is the name of a monster that is not foreign to him.
Lucas sighed while occasionally looking through his active visual magic of the passage of the entrance examination in each post.
‘Selection test still continues. Of the 4 people who became intruders, two of whom have been confirmed passed. One was this young man named Galaktika and the other was Vares’
‘There are two more in room 5 guarded by Tatiana and room 7 guarded by Mark’
Lucas became someone who was so realistic on the circumstances because the responsibility on his shoulders concerned all the forces that existed in the eastern region as well.
“Galactics, is it possible to make your friends cooperate with us?”
“What?!” Galactics surprised
“Is it possible to get your friends to help us in trying to stop the whole Earl plan?”
“Do not make it up. Where they might want to do it. I don't want to help you either. If it wasn't for the damn girl's magic.”.
Galaktika looks so hate Emily now. However, he still did not want to die.
“Then do you know that you have betrayed your own friends and masters? You might die in the end. Even with or without magic from us”
“.....” Galaktika only listen
“You want to do all these things because you were threatened by my sister, but from the bottom of your heart, you did refuse and still do not want to die”
“If you go back to your friends even though, you will only be a target and it is impossible to escape. And if such a thing happens, what about your fate in the end? You understand what I mean?”
“I already know that. Therefore before coming here, I have asked the annoying girl who put strange magic on me to guarantee my safety, Galaktika replied in an annoyed tone
“So. In that case, I didn't wrongly call you the traitor of Rebellenarmee”
“Although this thing you did has already counted a betrayal?”
“....” Galaktika is silent
He couldn't return Lucas' words because they were all true. Galactica has betrayed. Even though he acted as if he rejected it, it did not change the reality.
He has leaked all the important information, making the memory sealing magic that was originally installed on Lucas eventually disappear, informing him of the assassination plot as well as mentioning the names of his colleagues. The Galactics were blatantly traitors to the Rebellenarmee organization.
Lucas stood up from his place and approached Galactica.
“I appreciate all your information and I know it's all the truth we need. As my sister said, your safety will be guaranteed. However, I still hope that you will cooperate with all of us”
“Why?”
“Because you are indirectly being utilized by Earl and I want you to get real freedom”
Galaktika laughed cynically as if mocking Lucas.
“Ahahahaha, utilized? From the very beginning we were all also aware that we were being taken advantage of by the Earl. But, the master thought that it was all for the sake of avenging us and getting what we deserved”
Lucas asked with a serious face, “Then I would like to ask you what you think this kingdom deserves from your revenge. What do you really want from this revenge?”
“Is that a confession? Strength? Power? Race equality? Or maybe you just want revenge just to make the kingdom feel the suffering you felt first?”
“I want you to suffer as you have done to us all”
“So. If you insist so much it doesn't matter. You can still get bail from Emily. But, as soon as this exam is over, I will probably have my sister take off her magic if you want to cooperate”.
“Releasing..the magic?” Galactics surprised
He began to think now, ‘What makes him who is my enemy willing to forgive my life?’
Of course that question is what makes Galactics confused. In addition, unexpectedly by him, a leader and Duke from a noble family would bow his head to someone from a race that was considered cursed.
“I'm sorry for everything that happened to all your races and families in the past. Unbeknownst to all of us, you have suffered. Although I'm sure it wasn't His Majesty King Lucario who did it, but I just found out that fact now”
“I'm sorry to you. If you are willing, please help me to straighten out all these problems and save you guys also”
“I'm sure there's nothing wrong with all of this and Earl might have a bad goal on you guys as well”
“If you are willing to help, no matter how bad you have done, I will try to alleviate even will try to keep you from being punished”
“I will guarantee the life of the remaining half-elf race and with my name, Duke Xelhanien, I will give you a better life. At least after this whole issue is done”
“……”
Galaktika was in a position that could not believe what was happening in front of him.
“What...ini? Why would a Duke bow his head to me?”
Lucas said nothing and still did not raise his head. By lowering his self-esteem a little, he tried to give Galaktika confidence to help him.
Galactica thought that she might not live much longer if she returned to her master's place, let alone after her master found out that she had betrayed him.
The only way is to help the Magic Council. For the sake of her safety and survival, she had to choose the difficult thing.
Full of consideration, Galactica must finally succumb to fate.
“I understand. I'll help you”
Lucas lifted his head and gave his smile, “Thank you”
“But I want you to keep your promise”
“Sure. I will not renege on the promise I have made on my behalf”
Lucas reached out his hand to shake Galaktika and the teenager answered him. They shake hands and finally Lucas manages to get a traitor to become his partner.
For Lucas, Galaktika is the key to destroying and stopping Earl Midford's unclear ambitions.
