Chapter 1226: Meeting the Grand ELders

The Black Ghost members made their move, blocked the entire street, and didn’t let anybody in. Most of them are still in the initial disguise they used for the mission in this city, so most people particularly commoners, didn’t recognize them being the Black Ghost members.

The administrators knew about it though and when they were about to make contact with the Black Ghost members and ask about the current situation, they were just shut down with the same warning Markan gave.

They didn’t dare stay there any longer and left.N♡vεlB¡n: Where Every Word Sparks Wonder.

That day, Sam and the team stayed within the ring and started interrogating every officer.

Some of them are low-level administrators of the Black Ghosts and they are actually duplicates, so there is no use in interrogating them much. So, they were just captured with a set of special shackles and were put away in Sam’s chessboard.

Meanwhile, the only person that could give them information, the Deputy is trying to chant again and again, but as soon as the energy that should have gathered to aid in his suicide didn’t come and every time there is a movement in energy, it was being shut down by that disc which could diffuse the energy.

With this Markan started his interrogation.

"Please, just kill me. I knew I screwed up. But just kill me and be done with it."

He begged Markan, but they were all futile. Markan didn’t have any thoughts of leaving him alone or even killing him for that matter, he would be part of the evidence he is going to use against his arch-enemy who is currently ruling the Black Ghosts in his stead.

So, he made this guy sign the Cursed truth scroll and made him forcefully sign it, before asking the questions.

"So, why did you betray the Black Ghosts and join hands with that bastard to create this parallel racket?"

"I..." The captive wanted to open his mouth, but he felt a soul-searing pain in his head making him shut down.

"The pain you are going through now, is because of a curse, as long as you don’t tell me the truth, you wouldn’t be able to get rid of it. So, be wise and tell me the truth."

"I..."

He tried to resist, but he felt so much pain that he couldn’t even find the strength to voice it out. He gritted his teeth and tried to endure, the more he tried the harder it got. So, after an hour, he decided to come clean.

"That is a new record. He managed to keep it in for an hour, I will do a leaderboard and see how everyone else does in this investigation." Sam thought to himself as he looked at the investigation process from inside the divine dimension.

"I only joined this because of the greed. I wanted more resources. In the previous generation, I am a successor prospect, when I was seventeen, I was selected because of my talent. I felt honored and proud, but as the time passed and when it really mattered, I wasn’t able to surpass my peers and was left behind in the dust.

Markan stood in attention and replied back.

"I would like to use my personal seal to identify myself."

The enforcer nodded and Markan performed his personal seal once again. The Enforcer looked at his badge which showed Markan’s name and then only his frown relaxed a bit.

He and the rest of the enforcement team bowed immediately.

"Greetings to Lord Markan."

Markan gestured them to stand and said.

"I know you are confused about my face, but I don’t have time to explain it to you guys. I would like to return to the Headquarters. I need to speak with the Grand Elders."

"As you wish, Lord Markan. Welcome back to your home."

Markan just nodded and they all made their move. They went to the headquarters by that night and Markan didn’t waste any time resting and idling.

He directly made his way towards the chamber of the Grand Elders and the enforcers that escorted him already gave the information.

But when he entered the large hall where the Grand elders were all seated, there is one person standing in front of them. A young man with a crooked smile is talking to them and when he entered the hall, he became silent and looked at Markan with a vicious light in his eyes.

He really wanted to jump and kill Markan right there and then.

He had an attire similar to that of Other Black Ghosts, but it is a bit different as it has golden borders at the hem and there is a golden line on the left side of his chest.

The golden line is the indication of his status as the lord and the young man couldn’t help himself but show it off to Markan.

But when he saw the look of indifference and disregard in Markan’s eyes who is walking with full confidence as always, made him want to rip that face-off. He couldn’t even hide his killing intent.

"Markan greets the Grand Elders."

The Grand Elders just looked at him and Markan performed his seal once again, all the Elders who had a small badge on the table in front of them had their badges glowing and then only their frown relaxed a bit.
