Greenwood City
The Slums
Hidden inside the slums was the branch of Twighlight Beast inside Greenwood City
Inside the meeting room was a group of people sitting around the rectangular table
In front of the tip of the rectangular table, there were two seats reserved for the two people that have the highest authority in this branch
Both of these two mages were wearing fox masks. One mask was of a snow fox and the other was of a brownish red fox
They are mages at the 6th fusion rank, Snow Fox and Space Fox! f𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝘯𝐨νe𝚕.co𝓶
In this branch of Twighlight Beasts, they are the ‘head’ wielding endless authority and not for no reason
Even amongst the 6th fusion rank mages, they are considered elites. Even the Fairy of the Forest – Florine was unable to capture or kill Space Fox when she attacked Greenwood City
Aside from these two, there were also other mages wearing their own masks sitting at their sides numbering more than a dozen
The aura that these mages emitted were only inferior to Snow Fox and Space Fox, this more than a dozen mages are at the 5th fusion rank!.
Just with the prowess of these people alone, they could already be considered a peak force in Greenwood City
In fact, they might be the strongest force including the military at least at the surface
The top forces in Greenwood City only have one 6th fusion rank mage. Even the military only has the General at that level
However, aside from the strength of these forces that are in the ‘light’ they surely also have more mages hiding in the dark
Still, Twighlight Beast was undoubtedly a top force in Greenwood City. Not to mention, this is just a branch of them
“How did the military discover the black snakes this early?! And why is the Preston Family also investigating?!” Space Fox questioned
Because of the masks and the fact that their bodies were covered with mage robes, it was hard to determine whether the two top mages; Snow and Space Fox were male or female
However, everyone in this room has power and status. As such, they are aware that these two mages are both females
But in this world where toppling mountains and parting the seas was completely possible, the other mages wouldn’t dare act in a rude way
In this world, it was almost impossible for a 5th fusion rank mage like them to defeat a 6th fusion rank mage
Not everyone is the same as Claude Preston that is said to be blessed by the world itself
As such, after hearing that question, all these mages that are normally arrogant can only lower their heads. They were frightened to the core
As the Twighlight Beasts is a ‘dark faction’ organization, the members they have naturally are far from being kind
“Is no one going to answer us?” Snow Fox’s bone-chilling voice entered everyone’s ears
It felt as if both their souls and bodies were suddenly engulfed by a chilly air
The more than a dozen mages are all Noble Lords of the Twighlight Beast but in front of the Imperial Lords, they are as weak as a chicken
“Useless! To think that I have to investigate on my own!” Space Fox said angrily
Out of everyone here, she is the most suitable for the job since she is a spatial mage. In terms of escaping and gathering information, she is one of the best
The Noble Lords shuddered in fright, their heads hanging low when the space above them suddenly twisted
A hole in space appeared and the way it appeared was different from the way that spatial mages did it
Spatial mages use magic to create and stabilize portals they could travel in. However, this hole in space was in a literal sense ‘ripped apart’ to forcefully create a spatial portal
Even 6th fusion rank mages cannot do something like this. This only means that the hole’s creator was an existence above the 6th fusion rank mages
This was the doing of a 7th rank mage!
From the hole in space, a figure clad in black robes came out. All of his features were covered with the robe and there was some sort of power around him that made it impossible to see his face
“E-Elder Shadow Snake!”
Someone from the group of mages exclaimed and everyone inside the meeting room hurriedly kneeled down in panic
This is Elder Shadow Snake! The mage that is the closest to Her Majesty the Serpentine Empress!
The mages at the ‘secular world’ meaning, the ones at the 6th fusion rank and below have never seen the Serpentine Empress
However, the Elders like Elder Shadow Snake are different. They have seen the Empress
The Twighlight Beast has more than one or two 7th rank mages. Even their members are unaware of just how many 7th rank mages they have
However, every 7th rank mages of them are afraid of the Serpentine Empress for some reason
Their fear is only for the Empress though and definitely not for the ‘mortal mages’
Out of all the 7th rank mages of the Twighlight Beast, Shadow Snake is the most active of them but is also one of the strongest
Mages at his level seldom interfere in the ‘secular world’ but he actually appeared here
A proof that the plan for Greenwood City’s fall is a big deal for the organization and not even the slightest bit of mistake could be tolerated
“It’s not only your subordinates that are useless, both of you are also useless! It was not enough that the hidden Clay Dolls are discovered one by one causing the plans to be forcefully altered. Even after days of the military and the Preston Family sniffing around, you still haven’t found the reason!” Shadow Snake rebuked
He was floating in the air and not releasing even a hint of aura. It’s like he was just a normal person. No, it’s like he doesn’t even exist, he was no different than air and empty space
Even though he was in everyone’s eyes, they cannot sense his existence at all
An entity that can’t be sensed even if they are in front of you is more fearsome than a strong entity with an overwhelming aura! The latter at least is straight and direct and not mysterious unlike the former
“E-Elder, w-we a-apologize for our incompetence!” The trembling Space Fox apologizes in fear
She was normally the arrogant and furious one in front of her subordinates earlier but in front of an Elder, even a thousand Imperial Lords are nothing!
“Hmph!” Shadow Snake snorted coldly before Space Fox trembled even harder than before
“N-no! I-I apologize! P-please forgive me!”
Everyone inside the meeting room suddenly saw Space Fox crawling in fear while trying to remove something from her body
However, everyone, including the silent yet also fearful Snow Fox can’t see whatever Space Fox was trying to remove from her body
They didn’t even sense any magic fluctuations nor did they witness the Elder using a magic circle
For mages at the 7th rank, they could effortlessly cast spells without the aid of a magic circle with a might and versatility surpassing even 6th-grade spells
To outsider’s view, Space Fox just suddenly acted insanely but it was different for her
In Space Fox’s eyes, she can see countless snakes crawling on her body while slowly devouring every inch of her
No matter how much she tries to resist, the endless number of snakes coming for her was not the slightest bit affected
“Hmph! Be thankful that me using magic might be sensed by the other 7th rank mages. If not, all of you would suffer for your incompetence!”
As soon as the Elder said that, the vision of endless snakes that Space Fox suffered from disappeared and she stared around her in confusion
The ‘mortal mages’ might have not sensed any magic fluctuations but mages at Shadow Snake’s level are completely different
In fact, if this place wasn’t a branch of Twighlight Beast that was protected by magic, he wouldn’t dare use even a little bit of power
Once he unleashes his power, he would be akin to a blinding light in the middle of a dark night
His appearance here could never be known to anyone
“This bastard is the reason why the military was alerted this early and why the Preston Family has become involved. If all of you are not incompetent, I wouldn’t even have to investigate myself!”
After saying that, Shadow Snake flicked his finger and more than a dozen small black beams were sent by him that entered everyone’s forehead
“If you met that bastard outside, kill him without the slightest bit of hesitation but do not go on your way just to purposely kill him! He’s under the protection of the Preston Family and killing him would attract their attention. Remember, we have to destroy Greenwood City but not in a way that would earn too much attention!”
