Chapter 2513: Carcass

While Sam’s training plan was going well, there was someone else in the Darkhan planet, who came without any plan and didn’t even know what to do.

In the middle of the vast sea that seemed endless, Bloody Chariot was floating over the surface.

His body was bloody. There were several impalement marks on his body. Not counting the several small and big scars, he is in a pretty bad shape. He already took a bunch of pills and potions in his reserve.

The battle with that one creature actually took more than half a day.

The worst part was that... he didn’t get to kill it.

That stupid beast toyed around with him, gave him the fight of his life and he had to back down... crudely put, he had to escape and leave, mostly because the blood attracted a couple of other beasts of similar size and he didn’t have the confidence to take them.

"When I meet Sam, I swear to go I am gonna crush his wind pipe as slowly as possible..."

Needless to say, he couldn’t just swallow the humiliation.

This was the first time in centuries that he was dragged to this level. He would just go and kill that beast if he could... but before that he needed to find a way out of here, but the vast ocean, even with his speed, seemed endless.

...

Unfortunately for Bloody Chariot, he wasn’t the only one that was feeling aimless and headless. The academies outside were just as much a mess.

Everyone thought with Sam gone and the worst of the destruction over, they would have some moments of peace. They would be in the rebuilding mode.

But unfortunately, they needed to gather back and face trouble even sooner than they thought.

And that trouble came in the form of mutiny at all levels.

Heron sat in the office as he got one report after the other of the incidents that happened in the last twenty four hours.

"Sir, as you said we gave all the information about our current situation to the students to keep them informed, but it backfired big time.

We shouldn’t have done that at all.

Almost every base across the conquered worlds faced a mutiny. People are killing each other left and right. And right now, no one is following the orders. They went rogue..."

"Why?"

"The status quo... the elders that died mostly are people who always abused their authority one way or the other. And that extended to their relatives and offspring who suppress the ones with lesser backing.

Now, it was reversed.

People who had lesser backing before started fighting back and people who only relied on the backing and got the positions they got... are being taken out.

I thought the death count has finally reduced, but no sir.

Our students and instructors are still dying, but this time instead of the outsiders, it was our own doing the killing...

And they are taking advantage of the fact they are in the restricted worlds. They have five years to be in there...

With their skills, they can easily amass the local forces for themselves and by the time they come out, they might not even have any consequences left to face.

This is getting out of hand, sir. If we don’t do anything right now, whatever’s left of our legacy will just implode."

"But, what else is there left for us to do?"

The elder who gave the report didn’t have the answer for that.

The situation wasn’t unique to the Zeus academy. Almost every academy, particularly the Olympians are facing this.

They are just killing each other and biting their own carcass that Sam left behind.

Or rather you could say, whatever flesh that was left on that carcass, the bad parts turned worse and turned into bacteria and maggots, started corrupting and rotting the rest.

But the carcass or the maggots don’t know is that there were some vultures that had been eyes this prey, and even though they didn’t expect the prey to turn into this carcass, they didn’t dare the miss the opportunity they got.

And to aid that, the next few steps of the Deans are going to become the catalysts.

That evening, Heron made an announcement to whatever elders that got left.

"we are doing a flash recruitment. Across all grades.

Reach out to the lower realms and target the ones that don’t even know the existence of the Zeus academy if you have to.

Don’t need any tributes, don’t need to fund the academy. Just talented kids and kids that are devouted to Zeus. I need you to find as many as you can.

Also give an open recruitment notice to the free realms and Divine battlefield. We are going to take the vets too as long as they qualify for the requirements.

We are rebuilding the academy.

We cannot let a single rageful youngling to destroy the centuries of legacy. Not on my watch.

Since he destroyed us, let him see that we can come back and we will fight back. No matter what."

The staff whatever’s left of them nodded their heads and went out with new excitement. Of course, such an open announcement didn’t just stay under the wraps. Other academies knew and they immediately did what they usually do best.

Imitate.

They copied the announcement and started recruiting.

And that was the biggest dumbest decision they had ever made. That was the biggest harm they could have ever done to the Academy realm and their academies. Even bigger than what they did when they let Sam in.

But it was not yet the time for them to find that out.

For now, they finally had some positivity going around the academies and the regions.

The cities were not longer some destroyed rubble. They have a shape and there are people excitedly staying.

Even with the latest mishaps published these people still came here showing how much the prestige of the academy realm still held the weight.
