It was next day afternoon. The sun shone brightly on the earth.

Mortals, merchants and warriors were entering and exiting the Nawarra region outside the forest like normal. (A/N1)

Suddenly a huge black airship could be seen flying towards the Nawarra region.

On top of the airship three figures covered in black hoods and a red snake could be seen standing on the edge.

“P-please halt, esteemed guests.”

This ship was about to enter the region when two guards just at Spirit Realm shouted from below.

Since they were just at the Spirit Realm they weren’t able to fly.

The ship stopped before the figure standing at the front looked down and said in a hoarse voice

“So I am a esteemed guest now, huh?”

A horrible pressure of someone who is close to breaking through Supremo came onto two as they both immediately kneeled and coughed up blood.

To someone like them who are just at Spirit Realm, a person who is about to breakthrough to Supremo is someone ought to be respected.

Their faces immediately paled but not because of the blood or because of the pressure they felt which was slowly lifted but because…

“M-milord!” one of the two guard shouted.

“Idiot! What *cough* what are you saying?”

Another guard with the pale face beside him coughed while reprimanding him.

“S-s-sorry… I was just confused…”

The first guard immediately realised his mistake and shrunk his neck in guilt.

The second guard shook his head inwardly as the pressure completely disappeared as if nothing happened like that.

He looked up at the ship and gulped nervously before opening his mouth.

“Sire Avery, we apologise deeply for the inconvenience. It was not our intention to cause you any trouble.”

Yes this person was none other than Avery.

She was in a hood and spoke in a hoarse voice, because her gender was still a mystery to the public.

Avery’s eyes squinted after hearing the second guard’s call as aura erupted from the ship immediately once again.

But this time it was clear that the aura didn’t belong to Avery.

It was the snake beside her, Nigel whose red eyes shone with a dangerous light.

But this aura wasn’t directed to the guard. Or else he would have immediately be crippled.

This aura was spread through the entire city behind the guard.

The aura of a True Supremo!

Bothering a small time guard will not mean anything. He will signal the mastermind here.

And he knew his move was right. For three people could be seen flying towards them in just few seconds.

Among the three of them two people were surprisingly the fat young master and the guard.

The snake squinted his eyes as it could see that the guard was a True Supremo as well.

Just a True Supremo was not a problem. But he knew they couldn’t act right now.

The middle aged man stopped with the other two people near the airship and smiled

“It’s good to see you back Sire Avery.”

Avery’s aura started going wild seeing the middle aged man in the middle leading the fat young man and the guard.

“Sire, huh. Care to let me know what happened!?”

Avery’s aura was going wild. It was as if one wrong answer and she would attack any moment.

The middle aged man, Alcott, squinted his eyes at Avery and said

“Sire had been gone for months. You might not be aware but after your disappearance many influx of greater powers caused unrest in the region.”

“Even though the region needed you, you were no where to be seen.”

“As days passed by, the province was getting more and more chaotic while things were starting to get out of hand.”

“Many tried to threaten and annex our small region. And we were so weak, we could not even say anything.”

Pausing for a second as if to let Avery digest all the news before he pointed towards the fat young man beside him Alcott continued

“It was at that time, when the young master came to our aid.”

“Even though it was totally unrelated to him, he was kind enough to be our saviour and give us the protection.”

“Everyone in the upper echelon of Nawarra Region was deeply moved by his actions.”

“Even though we wanted to repay the gratitude we didn’t had anything to repay with.”

“But how could we be ungrateful? We really wanted to show our gratitude no. matter what the price was.”

“It was at that time young master requested something from us.”

At this time he took a pause. This speech was something he had prepared for a long time.

Seeing Avery listening to his speech standing quietly he was deeply moved.

He knew Avery was a short tempered person. Had it been before even if he were given 100 points of courage he wouldn’t do something like this.

But now looking at the extremely strong guard and the fat young man who the guard was protecting he only had one thought

[As young master said, he is really invincible here. Even that famous Avery couldn’t help but only listen to my bullshit.]

He took a deep breath and came to the main point

“Young master requested me to be the lord of Nawarra region.”

And the surrounding quietened immediately.

The guards, the people, the warriors, the merchants everyone gasped in shock.

Because this was the first time something like this was revealed.

No one in the public knew that a traitor mixed with an ‘outsider’ to annex the region behind the lord’s back.

And eventually all eyes fell on the hooded figure.
