My Space-Time System

Chapter 611  Heart of the Synder Empire.

"So what now?" Brian couldn't help but ask.

"Once we deal with Synder and the previous All-Father everything should be okay." Blake responded with a comforting pat on his shoulder.

"Just that simple?" Brian said with an apprehensive look on his face.

"Although we are currently winning, I don't believe it would be that easy." Blake responded honestly, making Cassie and Tessie unsure of how to feel.

Seeing that Camilla and Tessie still acted distant, Blake decided to end their conversation there since the siege had ended. He then warped them back to Calton before moving off. While he still wanted to spend time with them, he had other responsibilities now.

Only a day had passed by and important figures had gathered at the flying base of the League of Assassins. While Dorian and Blake stood by the glass wall, enjoying the stunning view, Xeros' was seated in a corner of the room, his gaze pinned on the twirling black flames dancing at the tips of his fingers.

In front of the desk was Zyvexin, the 2nd strongest member of the League, who sat on the chair in front of the desk. Zyvexin's muscular body was nothing short of impressive and he carried an intimidating air around him. To complete his rugged look was thick red hair littered across his body. On his right shoulder was a miniature red dragon a person's head. It stood there, gazing at the black flames burning in Xeros' palm with a look of interest in its eyes.

During the siege on Calton, he was placed on standby in case another battle angel was sent to stop Xeros' onslaught.

"That was too easy. It even seemed like Bryon hadn't put up a fight before escaping." Blake voiced his concerns with a frown as he spoke to Dorian.

'When and how did they get so close?' Zyvexin couldn't help but ask with a look of disbelief.

After staying with him for more than a century now, Zyvexin knew a lot about the personality of the masked man. No one knew what he was thinking at any given moment and his mood was quite volatile, changing to anything at any time. In fact, even till date, his identity was still a mystery to everyone apart from the upper echelons of the Tigerian empire. The same applied to his right-hand and left-hand men in the league. "Yes, it does feel strange. I even thought the other councillors would show up since none of their cities were being attacked." Dorian said thoughtfully.

"In a way, it is expected but something doesn't feel right." He added after thinking for a while.

The Tigerian empire's main reason for starting this war is due to their overwhelming strength from their collaboration with the League of Assassins and their formations. However, it was feeling way too easy, which showed that something was wrong especially when facing their number one nemesis.

Dorian understood Blake's worries and shared the same worries as well but now was not the time for them to have this discussion.

"Anyways it's time for the meeting." Dorian said as he turned to Zyvexin and Xeros. "Let's head over to the war room."

After saying this, Dorian warped four of them out of the flying base. He and Blake appeared beside Cassius who was seated on the Mana crystal throne with a calm look on his face. Xeros and Zyvexin appeared on the lower platform where Tidewalker and the other Sea lords stood.

'Huh?'

Even the indifferent Xeros was shocked by those around him. This was the first time he was entering a room with the top echelons of the Tigerian empire.

Zyvexin was even more shocked to see Blake standing next to Cassius who was unknown while Tidewalker the supposed emperor of Tigeria was standing below.

'Why does he get to stand up there when we are here? Also, who is that man sitting on the throne?' Zyvexin was confused and had a lot of unanswered questions but that was when Cassius began speaking.

"If we continue going city after city, we it would take more time than expected, and we will end up losing more troops." Cassius' voice cut through the silence in the room drawing the attention of everyone.

"So we shall end the war tonight." Cassius' words sent ripples across the room as everyone reacted with a look of shock on their faces.

'What?!' Blake muttered in shock, originally doubtful but on second thought it made sense.

It was clear Synder was cooking something, plotting and planning behind the scenes. Instead of waiting to be served, it was best to attack them before they were done with their plans. Especially now they have the element of surprise!

'I have never heard about Tigeria setting up a long-distance warp array at the capital. So how are they planning on doing so?' Just like most people in the room, Zyvexin was shocked by the news, but quickly began asking important questions.

At that moment, Cassius' mana crystal throne began glowing brightly.

"Let's end this..." Cassius said. His words sent another ripple of confusion across the room.

'Like right now?' Blake asked the question in the minds of the people in the room. Only Xeros grinned in this situation, clearly pleased with the direction this meeting was going.

----------------

It was high noon in the capital of the Synder Empire, the streets bustling with activities. It seemed far busier ever since Synder lost Calton. However, out of nowhere the sky turned dark as numerous figures appeared above drawing the attention of people in the capital. Cassius remained seated on his throne, with an ever-present indifferent expression while his cold gaze was pinned on the capital as a whole. Standing beside him were Blake and Dorian with the rest lined up behind them as they all gazed down on the city below.

They had arrived at the heart of the Synder Empire, and unfortunately for their enemy, most of their forces were still spread out. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
