Chapter: 485

Yeowun and other Elders were bitter from what they saw. At the back of the pillar where the Lord was glaring at, there was no one.

The Lord was unleashing his anger as if there was someone there behind the pillar. But there was no one there. Every person in the hall became shocked as they couldn’t sense or see anyone there.

‘What?’

‘W-why is he doing that?’

The Lord’s action was shocking indeed. Yeowun frowned while looking at the Lord truly doing this, and remembered the conversation from yesterday at the peak of Five Wise Peak. Yin Moha asked Marakim then.

‘Great Guardian. Why did you have to change the date to an earlier date?’

‘That is... because the Lord has been pushing me away lately.’

‘He’s pushing you away?’ Yin Moha asked back, confused. But it was true. Ever since the underground treasure vault was revealed, the Lord looked very suspiciously at the Great Guardian. When Marakim was on different missions outside the office of the Lord’s palace, he now had people watching over him. Marakim then realized he couldn’t act on his own any longer, so he had to change the date.

‘I am reluctant to say this... but there have been problems with the Lord lately. No... I should say he changed.’

‘A change? What do you mean? Did something happen to him?’

The Great Guardian’s explanation was vague so Yin Moha became curious.

‘Well, we can say something might have happened.’

Marakim was a Great Guardian who guarded the Lord by his side. That’s why he was quick to find out the change that came to the Lord. And throughout the conversation, Marakim was considering this issue very seriously.

‘The Lord has been very different from what you are seeing right now, Lord Chun Ma.’

‘...What do you mean?’

‘He may be cold hearted, but it doesn’t mean he holds affection toward the cult itself.’

‘I am not sure about that.’

Yeowun couldn’t agree with that. From what he saw in the past few days, the Lord was only making inner groups to fight against each other. With a giant enemy upon them, the Lord should be trying to have all forces to work together, but it seemed the Lord only cared about his own throne.

‘I know it is unconvincing to say it.’

‘So, what is the change?’

Yeowun asked and Marakim answered grimly.

‘The Lord has been talking to someone lately.’

‘Someone? Who?’

‘...It’s Prince Chun Yujing.’

Chun Yujing was a former candidate to the heir in the Demonic Academy, and had lost his arm in the competition, and also a brother of Chun Yujong’s. It wasn’t strange if Chun Yujong was talking to his brother a lot as he lost his trust in Marakim.

‘W-what are you talking about? He talks with Prince Chun Yujing? What nonsense!’

Yin Moha was so shocked and responded dumbfoundedly. Chun Yeowun did not know the reason why Yin Moha was reacting like that.

‘What are you talking about? Why doesn’t it make sense?’

‘....My prince. Prince Chun Yujing of the Sword clan was killed by Power King Hang Yen in the war against the forces of Evil 15 years ago.’

‘...What?’
