Chapter 1032: Bluff
Kiran painfully looked at the spy corpse in front of him.
But he cannot do anything and this time, he doesn't even need to have any memories from the dead guy and he doesn't need to put up an act for a long time like before which is a silver lining.
After he was done taking the disguise though, Sam gave a smile that looked creepy and evil to Kiran.
"This time you have to suffer a bit Kiran. But don't worry, I will give you a bonus, I would give you a whole phase two heirloom worth of resources of your choice after this whole operation is over."
Sam spoke and let Specter out, Tamas and Night Ghost also stepped forward as they started placing inscriptions on Kiran's forehead.
Kiran started feeling some acute headaches as some pins are poking him on the brain.
And he is feeling the death energy enveloping him which is kind of suffocating if he must say so.
"Go there and act weak, imitate the aura of a night demon. When the time is right, you just need to follow instructions and come back here while switching it with the dead body of the spy. I am sure you can do that."
Kiran wanted to weep for once even though he is a grown man. He couldn't think of any other reaction he should have. For the first time, he wanted to distribute his disguise technique to everyone so that he could be relieved.
The next day, while Davon barely managed to get the elders in control and is having a meeting with the rest of his friends.
"So, guys what should we do? Do you think this is a coincidence or this is just some kind of distraction planned by that guy?"
"If it is indeed a distraction, then someone in the family must be helping him. The news about the envoy only stayed within the Night demon descendants, the undead faction doesn't know a thing.
We can't suspect them either. The problem lies within the Night Demon faction."
"There seems to be a rat demon lurking around."
They started discussing who the possible rat could be and they don't have many leads and many suspicious people.
After all, everyone stupid enough to leak the news to the outsiders is the ones that are killed in the explosion.
"Maybe this is really a coincidence. After all, the envoy is not the only causality around the explosions, you lost some guards too, right. Their target could be the destruction of your family step by step while torturing you with this suspense. Do you know any of the guys your family might have offended with some level of backing?"
"There could be thousands of them," Davon replied in exhaustion.
Even though they are right to think that there might be a rat, what they had in mind is that the rat is a single person and they have to find, even though technically they are right, the rat can come in many forms and his last form just died.
And what they also don't know is, he just arrived in his new form at the gate of the family estate.
Kiran walked lifelessly towards the gate of the family estate which is guarded with double the usual people and collapsed even before the guards could ask him to show some identification.
When they recognized him, the information was immediately sent to Davon who came along with his friends.
The Dark elf checked upon him and said.
"His vitals are not too good and he is enveloped with death energy. There is a seal on his body and mind, I cannot observe anything."
"Can we kill him and use soul search?" Davon asked.
Another one of his friends checked the inscriptions and said.
"Not possible. The seal is beyond my level at the moment and it is closely linked to his soul. If we try to kill him, all the information would be lost. We need to improve his current condition."
The Dark elf took out some pills and shoved them in Kiran's mouth, before letting guards pick him up and take him to an isolated residence with a lot of security.
After that they went back to the residence and talked.
"How do you guys think he came back? Could this be a trap?"
"We already took some measures. All the guards that are placed near his current residence are disposable.
We can observe him. Try to crack his seal for a while and see if we can get some information. Even if we can kill him without losing information it would be good.
But we cannot waste too much time on him, the opponent will take advantage of that and will try to cause some more chaos.
Two days, that is all we can spare him."
They took the decision instantly and started working.
Kiran stayed put for the whole day and just let them think that he is really the night demon investigator and spilled some words in the middle as if the medicine they are using really working and he regained his ability to speak.
But at the night of the second day, when the team had second thoughts on disposing of him after two days after looking at the words, Kiran made his move, when the attendant came in with the regular medicines, he killed the attendant, removed a spatial ring after puking it out from his stomach and took out the dead body of the investigator and placed it on the table.
He threw the attendant in the spatial ring before disguising as the attendant and left the room.
He sneaked out of the estate and dropped a small liquid container in the estate here and there while he was at it.
After he escaped the estate and reached a safe distance, he crushed a bunch of tokens in his hands.
*BOOM*
*BOOM*
*BOOM*
*BOOM*
A long series of explosions of different elements occurred in the Night Demon family estate.
None of the explosions happened in any important places.
They are empty residences and open fields, but this caused the head of the family and Davon and his friends to feel a shiver in their souls.
They immediately alerted all of the Senior night demons to seal the gates and make sure that no one escapes, even the city gate was sealed and there was a curfew immediately announced.
They decided to check everything and everyone in the next few days.
All the decisions were made quickly, although not quick enough.
By the time they reacted, Kiran is already out of the city and met with the rest of the team who already took residence in one of the lakes.
The next day, while Davon and his friends are looking at the current situation, a silver pigeon with Astral Plane cultivation came and dropped some scrolls.
"The Five Great sects have nothing to do with this conflict. So, if you are in name of that sect, get the fuck out of here. I don't think your masters will be after hearing that you are intruding in my plans and they also wouldn't be please if you are the cause of some other power invading your sects.
You have one day. Last night is a warning, next time, you will not be let off easily.
Tomorrow will be the start of my full-fledged attack. Think before you act."
Davon and his friends were stunned by this. There was no announcement that was done to the public indicating their identities, but from their initial guess, this news was also leaked from the same person who fed information to the other party.
But this time they are a bit nervous.
It is not that easy to say the words five great sects and war in the same sentence.
The five sects as a whole are an extremely high leveled organization.
"I think this guy is bluffing."
Davon said as he looked at the scroll.
"Bluffing?"
"If he is really that strong, he would have just come face to face and told us to fuck off. We would do that without hesitation. Even I might get out of here if it is an order from an existence that is at an elder level of an organization that can rival the sects.
In fact, all he has to say is put the word out and the Night Demon family will be destroyed in three days. But he is attacking it secretly like this."
"Even if it is, what about the attacks, we don't know how he is attacking at all. If he can really attack us this easily we would be sitting ducks waiting do die."
The Dark elf said.
Davon thought and said.
"We will change the formations of the estate. We will modify it so no one other than us five and the direct descendants of the night demon family would be able to move in and out. The rest will stay locked inside.
We will use the formations that jam the outside communication.
All the personnel in the whole family would be gathered in the underground temple grounds.
Let's cut the link between the rat and the opponent first."
