Chapter 187 Within The Shadows



"You are making us sound bad? What would these peeping toms watching us from their Distant Illusionary Boundaries they hold, think?" The entity said incomprehensible words, which the Radiant King ignored.

"...."

He had no idea who she was talking about.

"Nothing important. Just perverts bored, who have nothing better to do than just read out our entire lives as nothing but fiction. Anyway, I know where your brother is."

"If you'd like, I could tell you where he currently is located... But remember, right now, a lot of people are waiting. They are waiting for you to leave, so they can act."

"The choice is yours. You can either go and find your brother, as this might be the last time you see him, or... you can stay here, and act as the supporting pillar for this already collapsing Empire."

"The choice is yours. I'll be here if you already have an answer. You can take your time thinking about it, after all, being helpless in such situations is normal... Even Supreme Beings can be helpless as well."

The entity ended their entire monologue with a stern tone, that had the ever silent Radiant King to frown for the first time. For normal kings and emperors, this choice was simple.

But to him, it was too hard!!!

Just like Kings are made to choose between their family or their people. Strong willed Kings would choose the people, and the Kingdom.

But some weak willed Kings would not bare to lose their family for a mere standing of authority, and a bunch of people he had no emotional attachments to.

There were standings and viewpoints to such situations. And many of them made sense. As niether of those choices were wrong, nor were they correct.

It all depends on how you, as a bystander, saw the situation. Either from the citizen's view, the Prince's view, or a complete bystander's view.

And for him, right now, the obvious choice was not obvious. On one side were the children he had with the person he dearly loved, along with an Empire they created together.

Whilst on another side, was the brother he grew up with ever since he was born, one that had his back through thick and thin when they were young, the one whom he might not see after this meeting.

The answer... was truly not a simple one!!!

While the Radiant King had his conversation with a certain entity, a group of beings also had their own conversation as well.

A group of beings that let out terrifying aura that was stronger than mere Origin and Transcendental beings, a group of beings with auras reminiscent of Cosmos!!

Though the strongest probably had at most two Cosmos, as nurturing more than one Cosmos was more than troublesome by itself, let alone more than one.

Let alone a terrifying number such as twenty Cosmos that Abigail, the Goddess of Discord and Abomination had. Not everyone had such terrifying talents after all.

"Lord of Darkness, what have you called us for, at such a time?" One of the beings, who wore a pure white cloak obscuring their voice inquired, beginning the meeting.

The one who was known as the Lord of Darkness, and the being who wore a black cloak cleared their throat and responded with a raspy voice, "The Radiant King has left."

...!!!

They did not beat around the bush, and they immediately went straight to business, catching the remaining two beings off guard, as unprecedented shock flashed through their eyes.

"You aren't serious!!!" The being with a white cloak immediately rose up from their throne as they intently stared at the being known as the Lord of Darkness.

"I speak of the truth. He has left for a very distant land, as nobody knows of this either than myself. Even his closest aides are not aware of these news."

The Lord of Darkness responded without holding back. The being in a white cloak slightly calmed down and sat back on their throne. "Just like the Gloom King, they left just like that. Truly a pair of brothers."

The being said with a sigh, not surprised at all, nor did they seem intent on know how the Lord of Darkness himself knew about this information.

But, tho they might not be interested, that did not mean that everyone else were on the same page. The third being within a gray cloak, relaxed their posture upon their throne, and questioned with a majestic tone.

"And why should we believe the likes of you? How sure can we be that you are not just attempting to kill us, and take away our authority?

"And how can we verify the validity of your words, even if what you tell us, is considered the truth." Their tone was impassive and plain, and through their posture, they were obviously feminine.

"...."

"...."

But that was of no importance. The being with the white cloak snickered as something like this was just a repeat of something that occurs almost every meeting.

They, themselves were much laid back, but the being with the gray cloak was too cautious. They questioned almost everything, and would not act, unless they were certain of their safety.

Not that they were not strong enough. With their level of power, less than ten people were their match within the whole of the God Realm, but there were actually those who were stronger than them.

And those stronger than them, were those they targeted, right under their noses!! If they were not careful, their lives, and most likely those important to them, would only have one end. And that was...

Death!!

"For your first question, it is because I, lead this operation. And I have no desires in your deaths, instead, I cherish your lives more than anything, as you are important pieces to this chess board."

"...I go through this everyday, and I know you don't trust me each time I say it, but I will continue to say it, no matter how many times you want to hear it."

The Lord of Darkness responded emotionlessly, their gaze intently staring at the being within the gray cloak. They then continued on without a change in tone,

"I presume I answered your second question with my previous statements. But I will repeat myself more clearly, and bluntly. Your authorities... are nothing in the face of what I pursue."

"I find them more useful in your hands, than inside my own. For each of you, have a very important role to play in the seas of Fate and Destiny, that are continuously churning forward."

"As for the validity of my words..." The being within the dark cloak sighed and waved their hand, revealing their strong hands that had a dark and ominous ring on their ring finger.

The ring flashed light and projected a screen of light, as it showed the current Throne Room of the Radiant Castle, where a single being sat there majestically and regally.

"...."

"...."

The two other beings did not comment and just watched as the artifact that was most likely above just a Lost Divine Artifact was used. "Show me the truth, hidden behind any form of falsity that exists before my eyes."

The Lord of Darkness chanted lightly, as the ring flashed once again, causing the screen to distort itself and revealing the same scenery once again, without the majestic figure of a certain King sitting on the throne.

Besides the transparent screen of light, another appeared, showing the now human-sized figure of the majestic Radiant King, bursting through the Void at a speed that was probably multiple Cosmic light years every second.

Seconds later, both screens of light shattered and turned to different specks of light. The Lord of Darkness then opened their mouth to speak at this moment, "As you can see—"

"Yes yes, the Artifact of the ancient Goddess of Truth and Hope, that can even defy the power of even other Ancient Gods and Goddesses to bring out the absolute truth of everything."

"I have heard that quite a lot. And I am not like you. You might be able to bare all my questions everyday, but I don't have the patience to listen to the same thing over and over again."

The person within the gray cloak rudely cut off the words of the Lord of Darkness. They then kept quiet and did not give the other party much trouble anymore.

"I thank the Lord of Balance for their cooperation. Now, what about you, Sword Lord?" The Lord of Darkness nodded at the being in a gray cloak, before facing the one within a white cloak.

"I am in for anything that is entertaining." The being with the white cloak, known as the Sword Lord smiled in response, and shrugged his shoulders..

"In that case, let us set out a plan on how things will occur, let us usher in the ambers of a new glory, a new era, a new beginning..." The Lord of Darkness solemnly uttered such majestic words.

"...."

"...."
