Elsewhere, in an unknown location, the sound of high heels clicking against the ground could be heard, it was slow yet rhythmic, and soon a silhouette appeared, a woman dressed in all black, her face was obstructed by a black butterfly mask, long black hair and purple eyes were the only things visible.
This particular woman walked forward before stopping and placing her hand on an inconspicuous wall. Doing so, a line of light ran through the wall, and the wall slid open.
Without finding such a phenomenon surprising, the woman with the butterfly mask enters the now open passage.
Inside was a staircase leading further down. The woman continued forward until she found a wooden door.
What was waiting behind the door was a beautiful study room.
Some countless old books and candles are always lit even though nobody ever tends to them. And in the middle of this room was a big magic circle, its purpose couldn't be more obvious.
Stepping inside the magic circle, the woman sent her mana inside it, making it shine and cover her body with brilliant blue light. As the light died down, the woman was nowhere to be seen.
The woman now appeared in a city as she began to walk at a fast pace up the large set of stairs heading into the largest fortress, which stood in the heart of a massive underground city.
Arriving at the large gates, the guards know her business, allowing her through.
The front of the fortress has a full on Training Grounds which Knights, Marksmen and Mages train on a daily basis without rest until they would collapse. It was a cruel method, but to keep up their militaristic might, it was necessary. She didn't pay much attention to what was going around as she went through the fortress until she reached the throne room.
Though the lighting of the room was obscure, the two figures standing next to the Emperor were easily visible while the Emperor himself, who was sitting on this throne with his legs crossed, was very obscured.
After leaving the throne hall where there is only darkness, the mysterious woman enters the room and immediately kneeled.
"Your majesty, I have a report to make upon my arrival."
"Get on with it."
There was a silence before the dark throne hall became illuminated by ghostly purple flames floating in the air. The whispers from numerous men and women can be heard, they all wore both black and red, emitting killing intent, their eyes were ruthless, like the eyes cunning hyenas, around their right wrist was the tattoo of a veracious wolf, this is the underworld, and their ruler has graced them of his presence, he who appeared like a ghost and conquered everything, the King of Slaughter, single handedly slaughter the old underground ruler and subordinates, transforming into a his own rule.
And what makes people fear him more is when he proclaims himself as the Apostle of Monolith, the God of War and Slaughter.
In the end of the room is a gigantic throne. A man could be seen sitting atop of this throne, this man wore all black, and because his face was lowered, it was impossible to see his face. However, two sinister black horns could be seen protruding from his head.
It is the ruler of the Underworld himself.
"We have reported that the puppet, Senator Joseph Robinette Brandon that we have plan to infiltrate the politics in the United Republic of Aetlrus has been killed, including the monster that unknown organization gave us."
"Is that so? How unfortunate this is. Anything of note?"
"According to the reports of our intelligence agency, it is mentioned that the ones who killed him were a group of two beastmen, three of them were humans while one is more similar to a golem in nature, sire."
'Hm, why does it feel familiar?' The man in the throne questioned himself through his thoughts.
"Really? Honestly they sound really weak in my opinion." One of the higher generals commented.
"General Heisenberg, you know as much as I do that we are far superior compared to our enemy. All thanks to the blessing I have from our great deity."
"Of course, sire."
"Shouldn't we at least keep an eye on them? We do have some spies all over that city, so it wouldn't be that hard to keep track of them."
"I wouldn't worry about them right now. Right now they are nothing compared to us. Anyway, enough with that shit, now tell me Lilith, how is the plan for the operation going with our invasion force alongside with that organization going?"
"It is going as you expected your highness, none of the people, not even the Midnight Order that is hidden within Orazvil, find any of our traces yet."
"Perfect, you and everyone else should get to work, Chaos shall rule once more."
"Understood, your majesty," The woman said, standing up from the ground and bowing her head respectfully to her lord before disappearing from the room without a trace.
The man on the gigantic throne chuckled and whispered, "Things have become too peaceful, so let's stir things a little."
The world trembled when he said this as if to fight back. However, it calms down when the man leaned forward revealing his features with a visible smirk on his face.
