The Fight was over, Supreme Zolen was dead, his corpse still cold. I couldn't exactly turn him into an undead like i do with most of my kills. I didn't know nor was i sure that the Whoever from the royal intelligence department that sent him, Had a way to figure out something happened to him.
But , then the question remains- Why would Zolen blow his cover to confront me like this without any solid proof. That sounds oddly unprofessional by the RID.
Hmm... perhaps there are other forces at play here. "Huh, I guess the waters here are quite deep indeed." I couldn't help but use a one liner i wanted to use for a long time.
Man i truly am awesome and intelligent to uncover such plots, only someone of my IQ could have thought of that. It's all thanks to me putting all those Attribute points in INT.
Speaking of which, i did notice a something from the system after the fight ended, Better check it out.

"Huh, it seems i levelled up, But just Once?? Hey system you know that was a freaking Supreme Right??!!
Like those guys are one in a billion easily strong enough to stomp mountains like the Freaking MT Everest for fun. I just killed one of them after i had to use, Well. yeah i gotta be honest here, only used around 60% of my total powers."
Okay now that i think about it properly, I didn't have that much trouble facing the guy. Infact i had more trouble facing the Void terror than that guy.
At this moment if Other Supreme Beings knew what Zain thought about A Supreme, No doubt others Who spent entire centuries and countless trials and pain would roll up their sleeves and beat him silly.
This was a level of power that transcended race, gender, faith and everything else. It should be said that it is Zain who is the anomaly for easily killing a being that is said to be nigh immortal. It's true, Supreme Rank beings have their Spirits and Meta Physical existence fully merged at a balance thus granting them A form of immortality against Aging, Disease and even death.
Sadly, Zain possessed a very powerful combination of skills that are made to be Immortal Killers. Soul attack, Abyssal Corruption attacks and Absolute Elemental Resonance attack, These are type of powers only higher order beings possess. Such as the Cultivators from the celestial continent and the Lower Deities.
So yeah, Zain was the anomaly, A supreme was never meant to be taken out like a used play station 3 that nobody wanted.
"I wonder what i should eat today, I am thinking of going to that new cafe that opened up near the central district."
while hidden plots were unfolding and the world was changing and ancient slumbering powers were awakening our protagonist was thinking of food.
Other Pov....
"Kael, What happened to our Spy, that we planted at Ardonia?" Asked a man that was covered in crimson black armor with Eagle an insignia.
"Yeah, about that. I think he died." The man named Kael Spoke Bluntly to his boss.
"Died? DIED! What do you mean he died, he was supreme ranked individual. How the heck did he die so quickly and suddenly, he didn't even revive??" Questioned the armored being.
"Nope. He got absolutely Annihilated Soul, origin and everything. Whoever killed him was most likely stronger than a supreme perhaps even an ancient one was involved.
Kael Then took a deep breath, to relay the next part of information that he wanted to get through the thick skull of his ever stupid lord.
Lord Gustav Respectfully i suggest we lay low for a while. Our plan to slowly infiltrate Ardonia will take time."
He observed his Lord's Reaction. Seeing he was still okay and not cussing and throwing stuff, Only then did he continue.
"So in the mean time we should send our weaker members, Infact for the upcoming 100th annual event in Ardonia i have a plan to send a few of the talents i have been nurturing they will be the perfect spies." Spoke Kael.
"Ugh fine, Whatever. Make sure you have whatever you need and do not at any cost fail me Kael." Spoke Lord Gustav.
"Yes my lord." Kael said to Lord Gustav who now left the chambers.
"huh, More shit for me to deal with, even though it was that idiots plan to send a Supreme for a low profile task. Dumbass, no wonder he can't seem to win the succession war." Kael spoke to himself.
Sadly life was cruel to him as he was assigned to his stupid lord. His lord had a better chance to win the lottery blind folded than he could make a coherent strategic decision.
Not only that, He Kael, A Supreme+ Rank being who should be respected and honoured had to humour his lord, who was barely an Expert Rank being.
If not for the immense respect he had for the power of the Clan Patriarch, Kael could swear he would have killed that bag of useless meat.
Even worse the Supreme they sent was explicitly told not to give away his cover no matter what. Who knows what that twat saw and decided it was worth risking himself and sabotaging the whole mission.
"Hopefully that fool didn't reveal anything important.
Haah....My wife will be home soon, i will lose my mind if i look at these impossible reports." Saying so Kael went back.
In the table were detailed reports of operation 'Take over Ardonia' Or as his 'Lord' Called it, His most glorious plan to ever date as it was
'Flawless'.
This obnoxious plan was abruptly made by his Lord Gustav in an effort to secure the clan leader position of his father's clan for himself.
Ardonia was a relatively weak nation with a single albeit large capital city and a few fortress cities and resource cities.
Their clan was located into one of the higher regions in the 3rd Greater sub-continent of Terra.
[For those of you who don't know, The ancient world is divided into 3 main Continents
The warriyo continent is the weakest, The Magus Continent is mid, The celestial continent is the strongest.
Then there are the Greater Sub continents. There are exactly 5 greater sub-continents surrounding the main continents.
Terra is one of them. Ardonia is a small independent nation in Terra.]
