Chapter 4: Situation of Northern Continent (1/2)

Lucas found himself sitting in a chair, with his lord in front of him, and a white round table with two cups and a teapot in the centre of the table.

They were surrounded by a large field of white flowers, and the golden sun could be seen rising through the horizon, lighting up the entire field.

There was also wind in the field, which caused the petals on the flowers to sway and separate before joining the wind.

Lucas could now see a vast cluster of petals floating with the wind in the sky, as well as no end to the field, nothing but white flowers as far as the eye could see.

Lucas became aware that he was in his lord's divine kingdom. Despite the fact that he had been here before in his astral body, but this was his first time in his physical body.

Lucas was experiencing a wide range of emotions right now as a result of being corrected by his lord and then being brought to the divine kingdom.

Lucas paused for a moment to collect himself. He was now determined not to make any mistakes or cause himself any embarrassment.

Then he noticed his lord taking the white teapot from the table.

"Do you want coffee or tea?" Aucuses inquired.

"Coffee." Lucas took a breather before responding, as he hadn't delved into human needs and habits since becoming a mythical creature. But he didn't dare to say no because it was his lord who made the offer.

This situation in front of him reminded him of a slight change he had noticed in his lord.

'Wait...' Lucas came to a halt as he came to the most likely conclusion. 'Has the lord gained more humanity?'

He noticed a change in his lord; he was no longer as cold and indifferent as before, and this was the only explanation he could think of when confronted with his lord's change.

"Yes, I have gained more humanity." Aucuses confirmed it, as if he could hear his thoughts. "Let's not delve too deeply into this complicated subject."

After handing Lucas a cup of coffee, Aucuses said.

"Start with the information."

Lucas took a sip of his coffee before pulling out a file with a picture on the front and placing it in front of Aucuses. This chapter is updated by

The photograph depicted a man in his thirties with blonde hair and dark brown eyes. He was dressed in a noble coat with a unique clock emblem on the top of the coat's pocket.

So, that's why Aucuses uses this way, despite his dislike for the hassle.

"Lucas, you have been tasked with obtaining that book from him." Finally, Lucas assigned a task in a casual tone, as if it were a simple task.

"My lord," Lucas said, his voice full of shock and sorrow, as if Aucuses had assigned him a death mission.

Well, it is a death mission because they may be able to obtain information, but doing this will immediately draw the attention of Duke Pallez Zoroast, who is sequence 1, due to this Mobet is under the personal care of the Duke, and Lucas didn't think he could evade the duke.

"I'm not sending you on a suicide mission." When Aucuses saw his expression, he smiled amusedly. "A change of times is upon us, Lucas. You can finish this task in the midst of the chaos that will soon ensue." His expression turn solemn, as he said it in a roundabout way.

'A change of the times.' Lucas's face became solemn; the last time he heard his lord say this, it was just before the fall of the ancient sun god.

'Will the Solomon Empire fall?' Lucas made an outlandish guess. He believed this was more likely because he was aware of another mission assigned to the angel of miracles that was far more difficult than this.

"What about the war in the border?" Aucuses questioned, shifting to a different topic rather than delving deeper into the 'Change of Times.' "Are the casualties increasing?" With a light tone, he inquired.

"Yes, Milord." Lucas took a pause before continuing. "Our protracted war with the church of the lord of storms and the church of the god of knowledge and wisdom had reached a stalemate until before."

"However, the saints of the Church of God of Knowledge and Wisdom have recently created a spell containing the power of night and darkness that can be cast on a large scale, restraining our troops at the border."

"Their divination was also successful, and they managed to circumvent the anti-divination artifact we had."

"The entire front line had been breached. As a result, there were a large number of casualties."

"Another side of war that was going on with the church of the Lord of Storms also suffered a setback as a result of this."

"As the situation deteriorated, I was forced to fight in the war in order to hold the frontlines and save the situation." Lucas spoke with solemnity and desperation.

Another major piece of news that Lucas wanted to share was this, the war had devolved into a disaster for them.

Only his intervention saved what was left, but thankfully it also halted their advance into Aelius' Kingdom.

So, they had failed miserably in the war, and he was unsure how his lord would react. Even so, he is willing to accept responsibility because he was the commander of the entire legion stationed there.

'Amanines and Herabergan,' Aucuses rubbed his temples, regretting his previous negligence to the war. But a lot of things happened to him that took up most of his time.

This was giving him a headache; if Herabergan could gain Amanines as an ally, the situation would shift in Herabergan's favour.
