The man frowned.

"The Rebellion is a faction that is heavily depended not on the leadership." Adrian said. "If you can cut the head, the whole organisation is as good as destroyed." 

"I can understand. But the high level circlers of the Rebellion are masters at the art of concealment. It's not easy to defeat them."

"It is. It's just that the Imperial family cares little about these pests."

"Exactly. This is the reason the war will be over soon, with the leaders getting away unscathed again."

"It would have been the case." Adrian arched forward and smiled. "If the High Table did not decide to step into the game."

The man knitted his brows further. "The High Table? The members reveal themselves if, and only if, calamity or higher class enemies appear. Why would they reveal themselves now? The only calamity class member of the Rebellion died years ago."

Adrian only smiled in response.
