Your Not So Ordinary Villain



The hero association's president sent several letters to the different kingdoms and eventually it reached the Lunaira Kingdom. Acasia received the letter and thought of it as nonsense before he even read it. He and the president of the El Merey kingdom weren't on good terms so he begrudgingly opened the letter.

His eyes widened when he read the contents of the letter. His grumpy face was replaced with a grin and a trace of excitement could be seen from his eyes. He stood up and knocked over the chair to the floor as he hastily went out.

Acasia saw the association's clerk who just came back from having her coffee. The president dragged her and slammed the paper on her table. The clerk was still in a daze because of the president's unusual actions.

"Make a notice based on this letter and put it on the highest priority of the mission board," Acasia commanded.

The clerk looked at the paper and her eyes widened. She woke up from her daze and took action. The notice was immediately posted on the mission board.

The heroes and visitors that were there flocked on the mission board in curiosity because the notice was placed on the highest priority part of the board.  Murmurs echoed in the lobby once the rewards were read. They whispered with each other because they couldn't believe what they were reading.

President Acasia came out from his office and walked towards the people who were having doubts regarding the notice. He coughed out loud to get there attention. The people in the room looked back at the man as they became silent.

"I know that you have doubts but that notice is true. The El Merey kingdom already made a move and so did the other kingdoms who received the letter. Although we don't know about that religion, the reward money is enough for any of us to live a comfortable life." The president addressed their doubts. "That reward money is real and is validated, so no need to worry about its authenticity."

After that statement, the people inside the room were relieved. They then formed groups to plan on how to gather information. Acasia on the other hand went to meet Arcaine, who was the only hero in the association right now.

"Do you want to take on the mission too?" He already sent someone to inform him of the mission while he was talking with the others on the first floor.

"Yes, I think it is easy enough." Arcaine answered with a grin. When he saw the notice, he was immediately intrigued and the reward money was very tempting. "It's only information gathering so there should be no problem."

The president nodded, "I'll notify the other heroes so they can simultaneously gather information while doing their mission."

Arcaine has no problem with this because it was a competition and besides there was still the possibility that the client wouldn't want the information they'll give. He nodded towards the man and after that he left the city. This news also circulated around the city and even the king was informed about it.

"To give such a reward for only information, this group is surely generous." The king commented but what really caught his eye was the person whose information they wanted to know. "'World Breaker' , that's a unique nickname, sounds ominous and comical at the same time."

"I have tried talking to our contacts in El Merey and the group that commissioned the request is called 'Justice of Light'. Apparently, they are a new group that can do miracles and they have helped the kingdom to prosper," General Ishmael added. He then handed a written report to the king detailing the group's information.

Orpheus hummed in thought. It was fairly a new group but to think that they already have that much influence in the El Merey kingdom means that their power was no joke. They even managed to build a connection with the royal family.

"I want you to observe them and report back to me. They'll be a valuable asset if we can get them to have a branch here in Lunaira. And I want to learn more about this 'World Breaker'." Orpheus placed back the documents as he gave the general a look.

Without hesitation, the general gave the king a salute and left the study to command his spies with the king's mission. If what was written on those papers were true, this 'World Breaker' person might be a dangerous enemy. A person who could destroy worlds, sounds a bit absurd but it was better to be prepared than caught off-guard.

Orpheus, who was left alone, was in deep thoughts. Though he was not a fan of prophecies, that name was a bit intimidating. He found it funny at first but the longer he thought about it, he was getting an ominous feeling about it. He could only sigh and put it at the back of his mind for the time being.

Vergessen bakery, the branch that was located in the slums, was busy. The talk of that notice reached even that part of the city. The place was filled with the loud conversations regarding the matter as most of them were interested to try their luck. One million gold coins was no joke and this was their chance to change their status in their life.

Astrophos who was handling information was busy compiling the reports he got from the wyverns regarding this new group or this religion as the others may have called it. This was something that they should be taking note of. After compiling everything, he used the gate to reach the Ginehart manor in the capital that had been silent for a while now.

After the assassination attempts and no news from General Linius, the master wasn't in the mood to go out. Some may think that he must be depressed because of what was happening to his family but they were wrong. The master was currently enjoying spying on the families that were involved with the attempts.

Astrophos was actually impressed that the master had that kind of technique and now half of the nobility in the capital city of Lunaira were already in his control. Ignius worked double time and finished his mission in just a week because he was eager to find the people who were after the master. If not for the master stopping him, he might have shown his true form and attacked anyone in sight.

He looked at the documents in his hand once again and at the familiar name. Justice of Light, he couldn't believe that they did not even hide their identity while the master's identity was not known around the kingdom. He didn't know whether they were stupid or just plain dumb for exposing their identity.

Astrophos knocked on the door before opening it. Just as he entered, he already saw the master's hand stretched out towards his direction. Without any words, he walked forward and handed him the document that he compiled.

Cygnus browsed through the report but there was not much changed in his facial expression, not until he finished reading. He let out a loud laugh as he brushed his hair up before leaning on his chair. "Crazy bastards."

The master's crude language would sometimes surprise the mage because he was already used to his noble language. In his thoughts, the master was crazier than those crazy bastards though. Even without a plan, the master could still kill them.

"I like your thoughts," Cygnus grinned. "Yes, I can kill them whenever I want but for now, I am curious as to what they are going to do to kill me."

"Shall I inform the others about this news?" Astrophos asked after the master returned the document to him.

"I'm sure that they already know about it. I'm aware that they have spies all over the kingdom and in the other kingdoms. Those people are impatient so I am sure that they will be coming to me soon." Cygnus waved his hands. He knew how his people work so there was no need to worry about them or hide anything from them.

"Then, I will take my leave." The mage bowed before he left the room. Just as he got out, he met the butler so he gave him a small nod.

Mr. C entered the room and went straight to where the master was. "He must have come to report to you what is happening in the kingdom and in the other kingdoms right now."

Cygnus nodded. "Don't make any moves yet. I wonder what they are going to do once they get information about me and I want to know why they didn't come to me the moment they arrived."

"Our people are already gathering information about them so you don't need to think too much about it, master," the butler answered. "And one more thing, Sir Aberleign came by again just a while ago and he was asking when he can meet you."
