Chapter 1623: Discussion

"I apologize for my stupidity young master."

Saint said in a very low tone.

"Do you really think an apology is going to cut it?"

"I know it doesn't young master. I committed a grave mistake and it can only be compensated with my death."

"Good that you have some self-awareness. Just end yourself now and put us all out of this stupid misery."

"Yes, young master."

Saint closed his eyes and took a deep breath. All of a sudden, his aggrieved eyes turned to something different. Now it seemed like he became crazy with anger and burning resentment.

All of his spiritual energy acted up as it converged to a single point. It is concentrated at one particular point. Brother gold frowned and had a bad feeling.

Saint leaped forward and held Brother gold's hands abruptly before saying.

"I know I am going to die, young master. But to suggest my death so easily after I served you all these years so loyally, don't you think you are being way too cold towards me? That's why I can't just die normally.

I will take you with me to set an example."

Brother Gold widened his eyes in disbelief. He took out a blade and cut his arm instantly.

Saint tried to move forward and capture him again, but since he was in the middle of self-destructing himself he wasn't able to do that.

Brother gold kicked his legs off and moved backward before he activated a transference token and disappeared from the room.

*BOOM*

In a massive explosion of energy, Saint's body turned into a bloody mist.

And followed by that, the whole room was destroyed.

Brother gold appeared outside the estate with only one arm. He gritted his teeth in anger as he looked around. All of the Saint's subordinates are shocked by his state and they wanted to run toward him to help.

But the look Brother gold gave them stopped them all in their tracks. They didn't dare take a step forward.

"You sick bastard. How dare you bring me to this state? I hope you rot in hell with your soul stuck there."

He took out another token and crushed it. This time the energy took a longer time to envelop him and take him away from that spot because the distance is obviously way too long.

While things are going like this on Gold's end, Brother Silver had a completely different scenario. His conversation with Smith is much friendlier and there is much less talk of killing and dying.

"So, Smith. You know I like you a lot. You are my favorite among all of the subordinates. I can kind of understand why you hid this stuff from me, but that still doesn't excuse you, man.

You should have told us as soon as you had an attack.

I mean, it is true that the master might think you are becoming a bit useless. But it is not the first time something like this happened to you. You can always find a way to get your position back.

But now that you have delayed, not only does your ability is being doubted, but also your loyalty is being questioned.

Isn't that a much more troubling thing than normal? This will be much harder for you to redeem from as well. This is going to be a much more troublesome situation. You know that right?"

Brother Silver said slowly. His face is full of sadness and lament.

"I apologize young master. But all I wanted was to figure out the situation by myself before reporting it to you. I don't have any other intentions."

"I know that. But it will be hard to convince my brothers. Do me a favor and give me those mechanisms that attacked you. That will save us a lot of trouble."

"Yes, young master."

Smith did as he was told without batting an eye.

"Anyway, that is all for now. Don't stop your investigation. But we will also our own thing. Let's share results if we have any.

That person that came at you with these, is not a normal guy.

As for your deteriorating physical condition, let's try and see if Vardar can do anything. From what we knew Saint is fucked. So, there is not much we can do.

Vardar owes me a favor and even though he went into hiding for some reason, we might be able to figure out his location. Let's see if he can fix you. Until then, be careful and try your best to survive."

"Yes, Young master. I will do as you instructed."

"That's great. See you later."

Brother Silver took out a token and left the place.

He reappeared at the Divine Formation mountain. In a small meeting room where all three of them usually gathered.

Brother Black and Brother Gold are already there. There is also something else present apart from them. A large glass container that is filled with runes. Brother gold placed his arm inside and it started growing slowly.

"Fuck, I hate this process. It's like a million locusts are biting my flesh."

"But instead of biting your flesh, the flesh is actually being generated here. So, stop your whining.

Anyway, didn't you go to meet Saint? Why are you injured? Don't tell me, Sam fucked you up."

"Like hell he did. It would have been better if I met Sam at least and this happened in his hands. But this didn't happen like that. That bastard Saint tried to kill me along with him and I escaped by losing my arm."

"Hahahaha…"

Brother silver started laughing out loud.

Brother Black also didn't control himself.

"Whatever. What are the reports? Let's get this over with so that we can have some free time for ourselves. I need one small break before we deep dive into these experiments. I am sure with the presence of our newest enemy, Sam we are not going to get any rest anytime soon."

"That's true. From all the information we had of him, he is fucking relentless to say the least. We don't know how to approach him at all though. I really do wish, we don't have to fight him any time soon. It would be great if we can collaborate actually."

Brother Black said with a sigh.

"That is not an option. If we really want to have our legacy stand out, we have to eliminate the competition. Not just him, we have to take over his Dusk organization. We either have to merge it with our organization or eliminate it altogether.

His memories and his ideas are what we need but that doesn't mean, we can leave the rest of the things he built. His organization and his academies are way too full of his knowledge we need to take care of that too."

Brother Silver said decisively.

"Are you sure you want to proceed with that?

I am sure without Sam and his friends, the organization will collapse by itself. It will implode without proper guidance and support. So, we don't have to get our hands dirty if you ask me."

"Nope, we are destroying that organization no matter what and we are doing it with our own hands. We are not even using the subordinates this time."

"Alright, alright. We can talk about that later. As I said finish with your reports so that I can go back and have some alone time."

They spoke about their reports and that is followed by a significant amount of silent time.

"So, what do you guys think he is going to do now? I honestly don't know. If he is going to go after the other subordinates then who is he going after. It seems like he didn't follow a pattern now, I can't predict it.

But if he is going after Muscle himself, how is going to approach it? It has been a long time since he appeared in the arena. According to the way he operates, there is no way he would wait this long if he is really his target.

What do you think he is going to do?"

Brother Black directly voiced his helplessness in the situation.

"I don't know either. All I can think of is to inform the rest of the subordinates and also call in some of the favors we have and then make them put their people to keep an eye on.

We need some outsider perspective since Sam could have investigated our subordinates and would have prepared against them.

Let's just alert all the possible targets and see what he does. We might be able to find a pattern after his next attack."

"Okay, let's proceed with that. And also Brother Gold, you need to finish off your rest early. We can't have you resting for a long time. Mind you."

"Of course, of course. I am not going to waste a lot of time. It is just that I need to clear my mind. I can't think of anything creative if I am just so stumped like this every day, you know."

"I know, I know. Please don't start with this again. See you in two days. I will arrange things related to Sam's situation."
