THE KING OF THE UNIVERSE 307 The Reason For Visi

That messenger replied, " I don't know Your Majesty! But the army of both bases have pulled back. Both Gutherson and John took their army and left the battlefield. Our people have occupied the two bases where both Gutherson and John were staying earlier."

"You mean, the Bluehart mountain has fallen to us. Is that right?" , The Leader of the a.s.sa.s.sins Organisation asked.

"Yes." , That messenger said a little proudly as if they have achieved something major achievement.

The face of The Leader of the a.s.sa.s.sins Organisation became a little serious. It is obvious that he was feeling something fishy about this matter. He looked at the Chief Executive and found that even he was in a serious thought.

The Leader of the a.s.sa.s.sins Organisation looked at the Chief Executive and asked, " Any thoughts about this news? I feel something fishy here."

The Chief Executive thought for a moment and said, " For now I could think of only two possibilities. One either they gave up on fighting us. Or they have some big plans in store to deal with us."

"What do you mean?" , The Leader of the a.s.sa.s.sins Organisation asked.

The Chief Executive said. " In the first scenario, they might have got scared of us and quit the war. But that is highly impossible. Because they were not in any worst situation in the war. In fact, somehow they were slowly gaining an upper hand in this war. So it is impossible for the first scenario."

The Chief Executive continued, " But if they have something up to their sleeves that will guarantee their victory in the war to the point where they even gave up on the Bluehart Mountain, then things will be nasty for us."

The Leader of the a.s.sa.s.sins Organisation asked, " What could be the 'thing' you were talking about?"

"I don't know." , The Chief Executive said, " But whatever it is, if someone like Arjun is confident in, then we need to focus on it. I don't believe that whatever trump card they have in their sleeves, it will definitely be scary."

The Leader of the a.s.sa.s.sins Organisation lost in a deep thought. After some time he said, " Alert our spies. Tell them to figure out what exactly Arjun is planning."

"As your command, Your Majesty!" , The messenger replied and left the hall.

Inside the Royal Palace, both Jacob and Raymond were sitting on the sofa in the guests hall. At the moment they have the face full of anxiety. They were thinking even at the moment whether their decision to come here was good or not.

At that time, Rick came and said, " Gentlemen! The Emperor is waiting for you. Please come."

"Ah.... Yes. Alright. We are coming." , Jacob said in a little hesitation.

Earlier they were hesitating. But it was totally meaningless now. Since things came to this far, they decided to discuss the reason behind their visit.

Both of them walked followed Rick and went towards the room Arjun is in. But they have face full of anxiety. If their visit ends in failure, then they have to wait for their demise.

As they were in their own thoughts, Rick brought them in a room, where Sitaram and Gnan were sitting on both sides of Arjun. Even Gutherson and some unknown faces were also there.

Arjun looked at the guests and smiled. He said, " You people are late. What took you so long to come here?"

Both Jacob and Raymond were stunned. Apparently, Arjun was expecting their visit. This was opposite to what they have imagined from Arjun.

Jacob asked, " Lord Arj.... I mean, Your Majesty! You mean you know that we would come?"

"Of Course!" , Arjun smiled and said, " Please have your seats."

Raymond and Jacob looked at each other for a moment and sat on the chairs which Arjun was pointing.

After sitting on their chairs, Raymond asked, " Your Majesty! How did you know that we would come?"

This time Sitaram and all others looked at Arjun too. After coming back from his Chaos Tribulation, the first question Arjun asked was, weather Raymond and Jacob came to meet them or not. But Arjun never told them the reason. As Raymond asked him, everyone once again looked at Arjun, hoping for his answer.

Arjun smiled and replied, " Don't you people want to leave the a.s.sa.s.sins Organisation?"

"How do you know it?" , Jacob asked in shock.

Arjun replied, " Come on! Right from the first day that we met, I could see that you people were not giving your all for the a.s.sa.s.sins Organisation. The way they deal with you, I know that most of the people in your organisation hate it. But you people have no choice but to follow their orders obediently. Being controlled with no freedom, I mean come on, it was written everything on your face. What's there to be surprised about?"

Everyone in the room were stunned. Not only Jacob and Raymond, but even Sitaram and Gnan who actually raised Arjun were stunned too. Sitaram then gave a warm smile as if he was proud of Arjun.

Raymond said, " But Your Majesty! The a.s.sa.s.sins Organisation is not as simple as you think. Their origin is really very deep."

Arjun replied, " I know that your organisation has one leader two chief executives, three Musketeers, and four Asuras. The a.s.sa.s.sins Organisation originates from the G.o.d Realm. All these 10 people were a bunch of trash who were kicked in this realm by their superiors. Since they were looked as a trash up there, they are enjoying their lives here. Your headquarters located in the Darkwave Forest of the Darkmoon Empire. That forest was declared as the forbidden zone by the Dark Moon Empire, in order to hide the fact that the a.s.sa.s.sins Organisation's main headquarters hide there. "

Arjun continued, " But you people know that you have no power to fight them. You people were helpless. You have no choice but to supress your rage and anger and quietly follow their orders. This trend continued for a very long time."

Arjun continued, " But you thought that an exception has come recently. That exception was me. You were very eager for me to deal with the a.s.sa.s.sins Organisation, so that you can gain your freedom. And that is the reason why you came all the way here. Am I right?"

Both Raymond and Jacob were completely dumbfounded by Arjun's revelation. The location of the headquarters of the a.s.sa.s.sins Organisation was supposed to be a complete mystery to the outside world. And yet Arjun knows it. How could they not be shocked?
