Chapter 2183  Plot thickens

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahh"

Krimin laughed like he heard the biggest joke of his life. He looked at Gorn like he is looking at a silly little kid.

"It seems like you don't really understand your position, Gorn. No matter what organization or affiliation you are part of, there is one absolute rule that applies to all. It is one absolute authority that anyone should obey.

I am here on behalf of that authority."

"What authority would that be?" Gorn asked. Just from the frown and the scowl on his face, it is apparent that he is very annoyed.

"It is the authority of the strong. Whoever has the bigger fist has the higher authority and the people with lower fist has to comply.

So, you, the former elder of the Zeus academy has to comply no matter what you think. Your thoughts are the most irrelevant thing in this whole transaction.

Hahahahahahah…"

If Sam was here and heard the whole conversation, he would have definitely thanked Kririn with all his heart. Not just thank him, Sam would even give him a big present.

Because since the Start, Sam didn't really have too many high hopes in this plan being hundred percent successful. In fact, he only aimed to create some doubt and friction between the patron clans and the academy or to be more precise bloody chariot.

After all, how could someone just believe in the words of some stranger who came in masks? No matter how Sam used the information he has in hand to weave the lies, there is bound to be some doubt. This second hand information he is handing over is definitely not enough to be blindly trustworthy.

Most of it depends on what the actions of the academy and bloody chariot are.

And Sam's assumptions are right.

Due to Icarus' flawless acting and Gorn's inherent cautious and cunning personality made him be inclined towards the Zeus academy being the robber here.

However, he is still a bit suspicious and that is why he called Niman over. But some of the elders in other places are way too suspicious of this. They are still making inquiries about the possible truth behind it.

Sam is actually counting on Bloody Chariot sending someone to take cover the assets. Once that robbery part is confirmed as truth, then the rest will become naturally trustworthy.

And even if one of the targets believes it wholeheartedly, then the rest will soon follow.

This guy named Kririn is making this whole thing much more easier. Maybe Sam should thank Bloody chariot for sending such a fool.

When you are acquiring something forcefully, the only thing one should show off is just strength. Nothing else matters in that. And if they show it, they would just be asking for more trouble than necessary.

Because when the other party is humiliated beyond limits, they might just set the whole thing on fire and burn along with it, rather than comply.

And at this moment, Gorn's face is very close to becoming the face of an arsonist.

"You have twenty-four hours." Kririn gloated a bit more and left the estate to stay at an inn.

Gorn walked back into the house. There Niman was waiting for him in her seat.

"So, this is what you wanted me to witness? And why didn't I know about your dismissal earlier?"

She frowned while asking. Her displeasure is almost dripping down her face.

"Because, no one from the academy knows about my relationship with Diplodes. That is why, no one bothered to inform you of this development. And most of the news about dismissal has been suppressed quite heavily.

So, it is not a surprise that you don't know."

"So, why am I here? Are you asking me to back you up in keeping your assets?" Niman asked. Except for displeasure, there is nothing else being shown on her face. Making it hard to discern what she is thinking.

"Nope, that is not why I call you. I called you because Diplodes is also a target…"

With that, he explained the whole story that Icarus told him and he also presented the documents, and videos that Icarus gave.

Along with that story and what Kririn did, Niman felt a huge weight burden her heart. She could feel that something might really happen.

Particularly with the disappearance of Thalassa family, she is even more cautious. Because Diplodes is not as strong as Thalassa in terms of overall strength, even though they are pretty close when it comes to status.

So, whatever force that destroyed Thalassa… Diplodes could only be a much easier target to them.

"We need to go to Diplodes main family. Bring all the evidence you have. Also, give me the details about the guy that gave you the news. I need to verify a few things."

Gorn did as he was told. Both of them decided to sneak out, but before that Niman, went into the city with the details given by Gorn to do something. After around twenty minutes, she came back with a face full of tension and worry.

"What happened?" Gorn asked.

"A man in grey hoodie and mask was found dead in the grassy plains outside the city a short while ago. His body is rotten and it looked like it was like that for quite some time before he died.

The hood and the mask are high level disguise devices."

As soon as she said those words, their belief in the stories became stronger.

With every passing second, it seems like they are buying into this story more and more. This is a good news for Sam, but it is yet to be seen who this will be the bad news.

Gorn and Niman immediately left the city sneakily. At that time, Kririn who was so ecstatic that he was going to take everything away from his rival was in the middle of an early celebration by sharing the bed with the most expensive prostitute he could afford.

Before he was even finished with his celebration, Gorn and Niman are back at the Diplodes territory. Gorn already started contacting the peers that were dismissed along with him. Even though it was a bit hard to contact them, it wasn't too troublesome and the belief is strengthened among them.

A couple of hours after they left, Icarus came out of a bar that he was sitting in. He casually walked to the space gate that connects this city to the academy realm. The moment Gorn left, he knew that he is no longer in the city.

Gorn might have been in trouble with the Zeus academy, but he is not in direct trouble with Hub and he still carried the bird puppet even after he quit.

Even though it wasn't being used that much, as soon as it left the city, Icarus managed to get an alert in the tablet that he held.

He didn't know how it worked, but Sam said it works and it worked perfectly.

His mission here is over.

After he returned to academy realm, he contacted Sam to explain the status of the mission. Sam got the confirmation he needed. Now, he needs to spread the news in a way that will irritate bloody chariot. And in a way, it is not exactly difficult.

After all, Bloody Chariot was not asking for the assets. He is demanding it. And the way Sam spread the news, Gorn couldn't give two shits about Bloody Chariot and asked Diplodes for assistance. And Diplodes acted as if they can save Gorn and his assets from Bloody Chariot.

This is an open defiance in his eyes.

Of course, even though those are his initial thoughts, he is not a kid who acts on impulse. So, his suppressed his initial ire and waited.

Because the second thing he got angry on is Kririn who went to fetch the assets from Gorn. However, Bloody chariot who is in academy realm got the news of Gorn's escape even before kririn.

This is more than enough to piss him off perfectly.

From here on, there are few steps that Bloody chariot could possibly take and Sam decided on a few plans each conform to each possibility.

This is perfect for him.

At the same time.

Alton is back at the territory of Agmon also called the city of Agmon. The place where the faith of Agmon established their headquarters.

He went directly into the building he was previously in. As he walked deeper and deeper, an expression of delight and peace surrounded him. He felt like he was floating in the clouds of bliss and peace instead of walking.

After a while, he appeared in the hall. He looked at the old man who helped him with the process of eliminating the contract.

Alton knelt on the ground and looked at the old man.

"Greetings Sir. I am here to give my first report on the mission that you assigned to me."
