Lord of the Truth

"Wha-... what the hell is going on here?!" Zika screamed out loud,

No one answered him, but the expressions of everyone present turned very ugly, they all took a combat posture and some even took two steps back.

All eyes were on Caesar, waiting for an explanation of what happened, but he was still standing in his place, the only difference was that the smile on his face became more clear.

He looked around and mocked, "What a professional assassination team, my brothers stretched their legs a little and you are already scared? gather your courage a little! believe me... the time to be afraid hasn't come yet"

"You..you..! explain what just happened!!" Another team leader took out his weapon and pointed it at Caesar

"Is it that hard to guess? That clown over there said himself that I went in with two followers, that was them coming to play, they wouldn't stay and watch as you try to kill their boss, right?" Caesar raised his shoulder

"You're saying that two ninth-level slaves appeared in front of us, killed two veteran warriors, and then disappeared again without us seeing them? Do you think we were idiots?" Zika lost his temper.. He lost three of his men until now without even knowing how!

"That's exactly what happened, you want another chance to watch more carefully? Send the last two you have! Hahaha" Caesar burst out laughing and then snapped his fingers twice.

"Aaaaaah"

"arghhhhhhh"

Two loud cries came from two different directions, two more veterans had their hearts pierced through.... they were killed instantly.

"This is bad, be careful! start the Defensive formation!!!" Garnin, one of the four geniuses, shouted like a mad man, the remaining 19 people began to set up a smaller circle around Caesar with a diameter of 15 meters, each protecting the other's back.

"Ahem, guys, I'm afraid you forgot something important," Caesar said chuckling

"SHUT UP! Do you think this is a game?! Tell your followers to leave immediately, OR WE WILL KILL YOU!"

"That's exactly what you forgot! You're too busy with my followers you forgot their boss? Do you think that I'm a pig waiting to be slaughtered? That's an insult for my esteemed self!" Caesar laughed out loud, then planted a halberd next to him and closed his eyes...

A white flame started erupting from every cell of his body and spreading, and in the blink of an eye the flame took over an area of ​​7 meters in every direction around Caesar, it's basically stopped just a foot away from them

then Caesar opened his eyes and shouted, "Whoever among you is a man, take a step closer to me!"

A second... two... no one took a step.

In fact, some of them began to retreat, although there is still a distance between the siege circle and the flames, the intense heat was unbearable.

"Is that... a flame?!"

"What flame is this? What secondary law is this?!"

"Argh, I can't stand it, I'm going back!" one of them couldn't stand the intense heat and took A few steps backward, but even this wasn't enough for him,

so he jumped backward with all his might to escape the heat, but as soon as he broke the siege circle, his scream got louder for a second then stopped...

He got killed.

"Damn it! Hold on it is just heat!" When the rest realized that the person who left the circle had been hunted down, they freaked out even more

"Garnin, Sheldon, Carmi, have you ever seen such a flame?" Zika yelled

"...No, disregarding the fire path, I've never seen a secondary law this powerful before in any path." The shapes of the remaining 18 became uglier and uglier with each passing moment.

"Gather your shit together, there is no need to be afraid! it's just one person at the ninth level, if we attack him we will kill him easily!"

"That's right, who would volunteer to attack him? We just need three of you to ignore the flames and attack.. It's just an empty threat, the flames won't kill you!" Carmi shouted, but no one answered...

If he did not want to sacrifice his followers, how would the rest respond to this enthusiastic speech?

"Aaaaaaaah"

Another cry resounded, another veteran among them fell victim to the assassins, but this time he was standing right between them.

The dead man fell to the ground with a long dagger in his neck, and again there is no trace of the attacker...

"This is bad, we can't stay like this!" Garnin shouted loudly, they were basically sitting ducks waiting their turn

Caesar, who was watching silently, spoke at last, "I think you are more aware of your situation now, I advise you not to make any move. one of you, Answer some of my questions and I will stop my flame field and let you have a way out."

Carmi Yelled when he heard this, "Everyone, don't be deceived! we are the hunters here not him, we should have it our way!! You.. you think you can use the same silly tricks to kill the rest of us?

It is obvious that this flame field takes a ton of energy to activate and stabilize, you will have to deactivate it soon anyway! I'll see how long you can keep pretending to be strong!"

"Oh? Want a bet on whether you'll die first or I'll run out of energy first? I salute you for your boldness! But..." At this point, Caesar made a gesture with his head toward the corpse that fell earlier beside them,

When everyone looked at it... they found that the dagger in his neck had disappeared.

That assassin came among them, pulled his dagger, and then disappeared again...

"...I don't think that's a good idea." Caesar smiled sincerely, but his big smile was like a dagger that cut through the hearts of those present

"... what do you want to know?" Sheldon couldn't take it any longer, this was not what he agreed to do!

"you damn traitor, you really think he will stay true to his words and stop his flame field before he runs out of energy? you are selling your kingdom for free!!" Carmi shouted, almost about to pounce on him

Sheldon couldn't look up, but spook with a low voice, "I have to try... I don't want to die here, I have a long life in front of me!!"

Caesar nodded "Good, I like to work with the smart ones! you have made the right choice, First, tell me why you're all trying to kill me."

"I do not know"

*tak* Caesar snapped his fingers

*pa* The sound of something hitting the ground caught the nervous geniuses' attention, It was the head of one of Sheldon's followers.

"Damn it, I swear man I really don't know! The four of us are from the Kingdom of Dolivar, we've been told to kill the squads of the Duchies of Alton, Stanley, and Evren from the Kingdom of the Black Sun, but we don't know why," Sheldon fell to his knees and shouted, his last mental defense was crushed with the death of his follower.

"Oh? Interesting, I thought it was that clown from the restaurant and the foolish prince who pushed you to do it, it turns out to be a lot bigger.. does that mean the other squads of the black sun kingdom you mentioned are facing the same situation now?"

"Actually *that clown* you are referring to is called Michael Tinley, he and prince Henry are indeed the ones who agreed to include you in the killing list even though you weren't on it before.

As for the other squads of Alton, Stanley, and Evren, they are indeed facing the same situation, most likely the three squads have already been exterminated, the search has been going on for many hours and all squads from Dolivar has joined together to do it." Sheldon looked at the ground, not daring to look at the rest of his followers and peers

"Oh? That means you might not be the last ones to come to kill me.. Thanks for the info!" Caesar nodded, then the flame field around him vanished

One of Sheldon's followers immediately took advantage of the opportunity and pounced towards Caesar, thrusting his long spear with all his might toward Caesar's neck,

but was met with a white flaming halberd that cut the shaft of the spear to half and then proceeded downward, slashing him in two from the shoulder to the thigh.

Each half fell to a different side, the fire was still burning in the two halves, the smell of barbecue soon filled the air...

"Well, the flame field is off as promised and now you have your chance to do whatever you want, come, attack me and you might have a chance of getting out of here alive. I won't leave all the fun to the other two bastards!" Caesar shouted and took a defensive position in the middle of the ring, surrounded by 17 level-ten veterans and geniuses.
