Chapter 86: Fallen Lead
It happened 7 hours ago when Viktor found the easiest way to capture the demon guardian and the female lead all together. Since he was in the real world, there was no need for him to follow the flow of his story. And the information that opened inside his record library was so sensitive that he had to think about ending the story before it starts. Because he was running out of time.
So, after Alberto was kicked out of the office, he went inside his library spiritually and searched for every information about the guardian he could find.
Inside his library, he was able to proceed with his work so fast because his fragment grew large. So, he accelerated the movement of his body and spent half a year reading a guardian's thousand years of memories in just 10 minutes' nap time.
And then, he learned about how to cast advanced-level magic spells and the weakness of a heaven's guardian.
He was prepared to sacrifice both the guardian and the contractor of the guardian to heaven's guardian in one go.
And there he is, looking at the hands of the heaven's guardian.
"Looks like I found a great fish today. But I'm curious. How did a mere mortal know how to summon me, the heaven's guardian?"
The pressure of his question was so heavy that Viktor felt a chill down his spine. But he was still standing because of his fragment.
"I'm Ivon North, the mortal who summoned you."
The heaven's guardian looked through the dimension crack with his thousand eyes and said, "I see. I won't be punishing you without the creator's orders. But I will definitely report this to him. Moreover, I can't just leave without giving you any reward for your good deed. Tell me what do you want?"
Got you…
"How can I possibly ask the great guardian to repay me with great things for capturing this criminal? But if you insist, I'd like to receive your holy blessing and keep doing the good deed to follow the righteous path of the creator."
The heaven's guardian laughed and said, "I see, you are the follower of god. Now I really want to bless you with the highest holy magic even if you reject my offer."
The guardian put one finger on Viktor's head and a great amount of holy power entered his fragment. It was greater than any powerful guardian fragment. But the heaven's guardian was still unaware of the fact that he was an elemental guardian too.
He simply left after giving him his blessing and the dimension crack closed.
"Heheh!! Hahah! Hahahahahaha!!!!!!"
His evil laughter was echoing throughout the empty gallery. His fragment grew invisibly large that a huge amount of information opened inside his library.
In a matter of seconds, he took out that heavenly guardian's record and erased the conversation they had. He removed his existence from his memory.
"Hah! So his name is No.3029 ha? They don't even have a name, just numbers. But it was great to know him. Since I got access to all his memories when he touched my head. Now I can continue my work in peace."
Viktor looked at Adonis and saw he was coming back to his senses. So he cast holy magic to lift the fear he felt after seeing the heaven's guardian.
"Are you alright?"
"I'm so sorry master. I'm ashamed of myself that I showed you this miserable state. Forgive me."
"Don't worry. It's not your fault. But now, I think we have to deal with her."
Elena was still alive. So, Viktor was surprised that she could withstand the pressure of a heavenly guardian. She was really built differently.
"Master, what should we do with her?"
"Heal her legs and I'll erase her memories. Then we'll send her back to her house and show her the real face of this world."
"Understood."
What a great day! The back of my neck can finally rest. Now, I no longer have to see the cringe things those male leads do to fight over a whore. I am free!!!
Viktor decided to end the flow of his story because it was too messed up. As a story, murders, sexual harassment, looting, war, the aftermath of war looks so thrilling. But in reality, it's so much worse.
When the smell of metallic rotten blood reaches a person's nose, only he could tell how hellish the reality is. Violence is never a concept of entertainment in reality. It only exists in a book.
Now, let's see what can you achieve without the power of charm and black magic.
A few days later in Viktor's study room
"Viktor, I've collected all the information about the lady Elena Pearlroy."
Nor, the first prince of Vestrain who worked for Viktor for more than 5 years came inside his room and put a huge pile of papers on the table.
"She's been missing for 3 days from the dungeon. And the weirdest thing happened among the nobles' families. They are all suffering from the post-effects of black magic. Most of them are feeling nauseous, headaches and even some of them are suffering from extreme stomach pain. The king is also suffering from a minor headache so the head priest is currently taking care of him."
Viktor looked through the papers and saw a letter from Alberto. But he already knew what was inside. So he ignored it and said, "How are the knights?"
"More than half of the knights are also suffering from the effect of black magic. They are currently being treated in the royal infirmary."
"I see. So, what did the king say?"
"A thousand gold bounty had been offered for her head."
"Hmm. What are the thoughts of the crown prince about this?"
"He was grounded by the king to bring such a dangerous woman inside the imperial family. He won't be getting out soon."
"Okay then. Thank you for your hard work. I will send you some books. Make sure to memorize them well."
"I will. Thank you."
So, the king has offered a thousand gold for her head? This is interesting.
Viktor opened the book of Elena's father and saw that Elena was imprisoned by him. After so many years, he was able to get back to his senses and decided to lock her up. Because it was the only way to keep her alive. He was so frustrated about the fact that she is a dangerous criminal who tried to manipulate a king, but the love for a child as a father was way beyond the boundary.
Elena kept begging her father all night long to let her go. But he didn't even talk to her at all. Instead, he sat beside the slave cage to atone for her sins. He was a failure as a father.
The situation over there is quite tough. Should I re-write his memories?
Viktor thought about it for some moment and decided to pay him a visit.
Suddenly, the little girl, Ibuki Inu came inside his study room and said, "Master Viktor!! Look I draw this picture! How is it?"
Viktor happily took the picture and saw the rough sketch of his face, Adonis, Nor, Kathryn, the little girl's father and her. They were all together in a green field having a tea party.
It made Viktor's heart flutter.
"Our Ibuki is so good at drawing!"
Viktor patted her small head and asked her if he could keep the drawing. So she wanted some candies in exchange.
"Hahaha! You will ruin your teeth if you eat too much chocolate. But I can give you only one for this beautiful gift. Let's go to the kitchen and see if there are any candies."
"Yey!"
Kids are really fairies. I hope she can grow up and have a wonderful life. Her mother will be so proud of her.
Viktor picked her up and went outside of his room to give her some chocolates from the kitchen.
Rae's POV :
"How dare you!! How dare you did that to me!! Do you know how many stars have fallen for your idiotic judgement? How can you banish me from the guardian realm?"
Rae reached the guardian realm after regaining his powers from 3 different planets. He was so angry and impatient that he went straight to the guardian realm without making a plan.
His arrival inside the guardian realm made the other guardians shocked. But the guardian of water wasn't pleased by his presence.
"Why did you come here? And who was the person that lift your seal?"
"That's none of your business. Give me back my thorne. Do you know how many galaxies have fallen because I couldn't take care of the stars? Are you mad?"
"The smaller the universe, the better the maintenance system. How are you supposed to maintain every single stars? A million? Or a billion? You can't even handle a hundred. What I did was the best for you."
"How dare you say that? Has the creator ordered you to banish me from the realm? You don't even know where he is!"
"You're crossing the line Astraeus."
The guardian of stars and moons creature a huge sword and pointed it at his head inside the guardian hall.
"I demand my throne back. You don't have the authority to keep my power in your position."
All the high guardians inside the hall agreed to his proposal, but the guardian of water refused to listen to his words. Instead, he wielded his water sword and said, "I warned you. Now face the consequences."
