My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!

Chapter 443: Chapter 443: Caught?

Anya and Leo were born leaving, to conquer the Major Families that had lost their heads. It was a mission assigned to both of them by the tower to make sure that the major families didn't create any disturbance after their losses.

The Necromancer Tower was finally starting to suppress most of the major families, granting opportunity to the two strongest families to devour the other families.

Anya and Leo were in a competition with each other, trying to get the most benefits for their families. The Tower didn't care which of the two families received more benefits, as long as the mess was taken care of.

Anya didn't like having to take the burden with him, but she couldn't say no to her master. She accepted her master's suggestion and told Eren and Ruby to follow her.

'Master, do you need me to do anything else for you?' the Left Guardian asked Eren through a mental transmission.

Eren didn't look back, as if he couldn't hear anything. Still, he left a message in return.

'If possible, try to get the recording orb that recorded the incident from my childhood. Also, convince the Tower that this incident of major family heads deaths was the work of the Holy Church. It doesn't have to be a full-fledged war, but the Western Empire needs to be attacked.'

'I can try, but it is really hard to make the Tower attack the Western Continent with Hell's Opening being so close.'

'It is your job to convince them. Tell them that the Holy Church is planning to attack and ruin the opening of hell. Even if it's a second front, the Necromancer Tower will have a better opportunity. I believe you won't disappoint me.'

Eren soon disappeared from the Left Guardian's view, who was left behind. Silently, she turned around and disappeared as well, leaving only the confused hall masters behind.

Kelia went to meet the Guide in the upper floors of the Necromancer Tower.

The Guide was just returning from somewhere when he came across her, asking her, "Did you finish the soul search? What did you find out?"

"The two of them were innocent. Not only that, but they are also quite talented in our ways, so I accepted them as my disciples. Their physique can help them rise really fast in Necromancy. It also made their soul strong enough to survive a soul search without much harm."

The Guide gazed at her in silence but didn't say anything. Even though her actions were strange, it wasn't the first time she had done such strange things.

He had already heard about Eren's talents from Leo who had been begging him to allow a meeting with his master. He had to reject the young man as he was in a hurry to deliver a message to the Tower Master.

"I am not here to listen about these insignificant things. Tell me what you learned about the attacker?" He brought the topic back to the main point, which was also his real concern.

"I confirmed from their memories that the Kiel Family Territory was indeed attacked by someone who looked like Cardinal Treniel. From what I saw, it didn't look fake at all."

"I believe that my initial assumption was wrong. There were more Cardinals, but only Treniel was the one fighting. It seems that there was an infighting between the Cardinals for some reason, which made them backstab Treniel."

The Guide didn't say anything. However, his gaze narrowed as a minor frown appeared on his forehead. He felt that Kelia was being really strange today.

Her explanation had a lot of flaws already. If anything, her initial assumption made more sense. Still, he was changing her statement so soon? It felt really out of place.

Kelia kept explaining about the assumption that the Holy Church already knew about the Hell's Opening. She gave multiple reasons for her assumption, trying to make as much sense as she could.

In the end, she made a suggestion that the Necromancer Tower should make a second team to invade the Holy Empire to keep the Holy Church from targeting them first. The best offense was the best defense after all.

"How interesting... Everything you said makes sense. I will consider it carefully." The Guide smiled. However, his smile disappeared completely when he walked past Kelia. His expressions became very grim.

After a few seconds, his figure disappeared. He appeared on the lower floors, approaching one of the hall masters who was responsible for keeping tabs on the whereabouts of the people in the tower.

"Where are the two youngsters that Kelia accepted as her disciples?" he asked.

"The two of them already left the tower with Anya. They should be in the territory of the Greyndor family already," the hall master answered, not understanding why the guide was looking for them.

Mostly, this person didn't care about such insignificant things. He was the commanding voice in the tower in absence of the Tower Master after all.

"Shall I send someone to bring them back?" The Hall Master asked.

"No need." The man turned around as a dark flame spread around him.

When the dark flame disappeared, the man's figure was nowhere to be seen either.

In the prison cell where Eren was kept, a small black flame flickered. The flame rose so high that it soon covered the entire cell.

The flame compressed into a flaming robe on the back of the Guide who was standing in the middle of the prison cell.

The Guide looked around the cell, as if trying to see something that couldn't be seen through by an ordinary person.

"Dragon Tongue..." he mumbled under his breath, noticing a very small trace that was on the verge of disappearing completely.

He also saw what looked like the sign of a drop of blood that had dried up. He reached out his hand, touching the blood mark on the floor.

The blood wasn't normal either. It was the blood of someone who was closely related to death, like the Left Guardian.

"I told her to be careful... But that fool…"
