The One Ruling in the Shadows

Outside of the walls of Academy City.

On the marble road that had one of the entrances into the walled city, there was a cluster of transport carriages that were being filled with Equipment and Cores being hauled out from the city.

"Brother Derek, I envy that you guys just get to oversee the operations of a city. We have to join the major battalions that are pushing further into the Light Continent soon!"

Under the light of the beautiful rays of the sun, a Silver Blessed from the Dark Continent spoke to a being he knew for years- A silver Blessed from Academy City that was in charge of transporting the Resources they collected from the Rifts of the City to be handed off to the forces of the Dark Continent!

The one known as Brother Derek was actually Number 87- just another being that was under Noah's mind domination.

Number 87 smiled towards the Blessed as he saw the resources were all placed into the carriages and they were ready to set off.
