SSS SKILL: DUPLICATE

236  Project Slayer

Within the mansion of the Holtien family, Mason and Willem were staring at the monitor that was showing Death God.

Willem was tapping his finger on his chair while he was thinking, then he said,"Avoiding a clash against them is the right decision. Vognar might not care about the Origin, but David wants to prevent it. David alone is not a problem, but he could convince the other 8th circles and demigods. If that happens, then it will be a huge problem. How's the Project Slayer?"

"The magic schools are getting prepared, but we already selected the candidates. We also sent scouts around the world. The schools will have competitions, then we will choose the best among the best. That Sypher deserved to be crushed into pieces, but the information he sent in raising magical plants and making potions is really useful. That information is already in our hands, and now it is easier to nurture magicians and aura masters."

"Will they make it?"

Mason touched his chin. "On the road of magic, it will be very difficult. Without a divine core, they cannot even easily advance to the 6th circle. If we discover a Palace of God, are we even willing to let others enter the trial?"

"Then is the project a failure from the start?"

"No. Something marvelous is happening on Earth. The constitution of people around the world is rapidly changing. Some people are rapidly advancing in their level of aura and magic, which should only be possible in worlds that have hundreds or thousands of years of aura and magic. For magicians, it will be very difficult to reach the 7th and 8th circles now without a divine core, but it will be different after some decades. Not only the constitution is changing, but even the state of mind. It will be very difficult to nurture an 8th circle among the candidates now, but we might have a chance to nurture a demigod if we put more focus on training aura masters."

The members of government agencies around the world remained silent for a long time as they watched Vognar.

"Halt the operation. Don't touch his allies."

"Are we just going to let them?"

"They are not complete idiots. As long as they don't completely cross the line, then we can tolerate them."

"Sh*t! That country is lucky! Agusto is probably jumping with happiness that a thorn in his throat was taken out!"

"Well, if their government is completely innocent, Agusto can truly jump with happiness."

"What are we going to do about the thorn on our side?"

"We can remove it once we have a demigod or 8th circle on our side. If we do it now, Vognar can teach us a lesson without making himself an enemy of the world. There are powerful people in powerful countries that will speak for him. He is the boss of a huge underground force not only because of his power but also because he has a brain."

Vognar returned to Madagascar. The huge black dragon was flying over Mahajanga City.

There was a black snake around the throne in the underground hall. It turned into a tornado of death energy, then Vognar appeared on the throne.

Riva was in the hall, waiting for Death God to appear. A smile appeared on his face. "The warning works."

"Is there new information from our informants?"

"Many people have a grudge against Poison Lord, but only a few have the ability to kill him. In that country, only Viel can do that, but he was at their headquarters. If the target is really Poison Lord, then our main target of investigation will be few, but if the target is us, then our investigation might not be easy. There are many people who want to destroy us, but they can't do that on their own. The death of Poison Lord instigated many people to do the same. It could be a plan of the real culprit. If they succeed, we will be facing many enemies if we decide to take revenge. The knight guild was even framed, so you could fight David."

Vognar's eyes looked scary and sharp."Continue the investigation. Find the real culprits, so I can personally send them to the underworld."

After several hours, a yatch was floating in the sea. Alex woke up. He looked around him with confusion as he rubbed his head. "Where are Sheyla and the others? Did something happened to them?! But why am I fine?! Poison Guild should not be that dumb to harm them. The girls should be from a top family  in Europe. They could have left for something urgent without informing me."

He walked to the hull as he took his phone from his storage space. "Out of power?"

Alex raised his hand as lightning was crackling on his finger. His left hand held his phone while he put his finger closer. "Will it work?"

Lightning moved to the phone. The screen lit up causing a delight on Alex' face, but smoke suddenly rose, and the phone got burned.

Alex shook his head. He looked at the blue sea. He could not see any land."Why is the yatch in this no man's land? Did they not put the anchor to the sea?"

He used his cape, then he flew up to the sky. He flew to the west, where he saw a land. When he was able to contact his guild, he was very shocked. He thought only one day had passed, and he did not expect many shocking things to happen.

"Damn it! T-Those girls set me up. But they kept me alive and destroyed the Poison Guild. How did they put me to sleep for a long time? Should I reveal the information that I know about them? Death Guild should have also known that I was with those girls before I started missing. I should personally talk with David," thought Alex.

Edgar was in a restricted zone. He was floating down from the air. There were giant, thorny vines growing on muddy ground. The vines had huge yellow roses. The flowers were as big as cars and houses. Edgar landed on a vine, and stared at a portal to a broken world.

"Boss, Alex took a private jet to return to his country. Will it be fine? He should have noticed some information about the girls," said Oscar in the earpiece.

"It's fine. Mari, and the two girls deliberately revealed information about them. If Alex shared that information, it will only mislead our enemy. Keep watching the reaction of his guild and the Death Guild," said Edgar.

"Got it. By the way, boss, the world's top 13 families seem to be planning something. They are gathering geniuses all over the world, and they are also building magic schools. The information that you shared with David was probably leaked to them. Polaris intercepted a document that had the same information."

"If David did not leak it, I will leak it on my own later."

Oscar was surprised. "Isn't that throwing a stone to our own feet? If they work for families, then we might become their enemies later." Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Is demigod and 8th circle that easy to manipulate?" asked Edgar with a smile. "They won't reach that stage if their mind is that weak. Rather than getting killed by the families, we want those geniuses to have a chance. Even if we eradicate the organization of Origin, those families will have many methods to kill the geniuses of common people if those families cannot stop the spread of aura and magic. To save them, we must force the families to change their mindset. And besides, I could have advanced to the next stage before their geniuses reached my current strength."
