Chapter 919: Discovered
"I\'m not certain either. It\'s only a guess for now, but if he\'s anywhere, I believe it\'s that place!" The General firmly stated while still remaining slightly hesitant. She was worried about the possibility of being wrong, especially since they probably had only one opportunity due to lack of time. His words made almost everyone in the hall react in their own way. Only when the Empress raised her hand, the hall became completely silent. "Where do you think he is?" she asked. She pretended to be calm, but waves of turmoil were rising in her heart. She really believed that it was the right place. Because if it wasn\'t, then everything was going to be over. "I believe he\'s at the Border City," the General stated. "The city that connects to the Land of Chaos?" the Empress asked. "What makes you think that he is there?" "It\'s because the guard I sent there to deliver an invitation to the Coronation Ceremony still hasn\'t returned. If that man is there, it would explain why he didn\'t return."
"And not just that, I noticed quite a few strange things about that place recently. Usually, we would be receiving letters for supporting them against Sea Beasts and Monster attacks. But this year, we didn\'t received none."
"I was about to go investigate that place myself after the coronation ceremony, but now that you mention it, I feel that it\'s highly likely that he\'s there."
The Empress went silent as she heard the explanation. If it was that man, it wasn\'t shocking for a Guard to go missing. That man was able to kill them easily after all. Moreover, the only reason for a guard to disappear was if he had seen something that he shouldn\'t have. Hearing his explanation, she also believed that it was highly likely that he was there. At first, she was wondering how he was able to control the undead of this world. But if he was near the land of Chaos, it could be possible that he learned that thanks to the undead beasts in the Land of Chaos. Although it was only a possibility, she had no choice but to go with this possibility. She could only place all her cards on this one bet!
"We are going to the Border City!" she commanded her men. "I will have the army prepare for departure!" The leading General nodded but before he could leave, he was stopped. "No, there\'s no need to prepare an army. The enemy is a necromancer who can even control the Royal Blood. Against an enemy like that, a large army will only become dangerous for us!"
She didn\'t want to have her army turned into an undead and having to face them. Against a Necromancer, numbers were completely useless, especially if the numbers were made from mediocre guards. "I will go with the Shadow Guards!" the Empress stated as she stood up, issuing her final command. "But your Majesty-" n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"I don\'t want to hear any excuses. We don\'t have time to make all the mistakes. It\'s better to die in war than to fail!" The Empress exclaimed. Everyone could see that she was in a hurry. But none understood why she was in such a hurry. Just what was it that scared her?
In any case, the Generals could only agree with her. ****
In less than a day, the Empress left the Royal City, accompanied by the Shadow Guards. This time, even the Leader of the Shadow Guards accompanied her.
Unlike the others, he knew about the Archangel Commands. He also understood why the Empress was in such a hurry. He had to help her catch that man, no matter what! And he had to do that before the person sent by the Archangels arrived.
