The First Magic World War-Chapter 640 - 605, Assassination

Chapter 640: 605, Assassination Chapter 640: 605, Assassination Charles released the Holy Light Divine State Title, much like opening the gates to evil.

Leaders, nobles, and anyone of even slight importance from various countries ceaselessly came to “visit.”

Thanks to Charles having carefully planned out entertainment facilities using mathematical calculations from the beginning.

Despite appearing to be free, each attraction held hidden costs, trapping consumers into overspending; the array of card games was diverse, players experienced both losses and wins, but the casino always remained unbeaten.

Thus, there were no deficits due to hospitality issues.

Each Great Act Devil was polite and distant as tea, but just a few Gold Eglus could instantly turn them sultry, calling you “brother!”

Hmm, these were the little tricks commonly used by internet streamers in the world Charles had crossed over from.

Men from the Old Continent seemed to love this approach—whether they were Charles’s subordinates, military officers from other nations, or even the two Peak Holy Order individuals seemed to enjoy it.

Hmm, from that day onward, Count Constantine and Bolloz had not left the Holy Light Divine State Title.

...

On the fifth day after Charles arrived in Xel City, Juno Arthur finally returned, and he went straight to the Holy Light Divine State Title upon hearing of Charles’s presence.

Juno had lived on the Holy Light Divine State Title for a long time and knew it well.

He even knew some Great Act Devils and, after a few days of hot springs “meetings” with Constantine and Bolloz, he then extended an invitation to His Majesty Emperor of Brittany and Antonio.

Aside from Count Champagne from Lanmalock, who was still in London and didn’t proceed to Xel City, this was the first time Peak Holy Order individuals from the Old Continent gathered so completely.

Charles was much more respectful towards Emperor Brittany, given that he was still a Duke of the Fars and also Emperor Brittany was his father-in-law.

However, given that everyone attending the meeting held extraordinary statuses—McClain Brittany, having only recently become Emperor, used to be Earl Brittany—nobody felt particularly intimidated.

Juno naturally took the role of moderator and said, “On the entire Old Continent, only a dozen people are eligible for the Divine Level.”

“Originally, we all treasured our research and refrained from sharing it, but now the circumstances have drastically changed.

Zimmerman has incited a war among the gods, backed by countless Evil Gods from the New Continent.

We, as mortals, will not fare much better than the average person in such a war; we need to stand united.”

“I will disclose my notes!”

Bolloz also raised his hand, indicating, “My research on the Divine Level isn’t profound, but I will share my teacher’s notes!”

Although Constantine and Brittany were also Peak Holy Order, their research on Divine Level lagged significantly behind.

Antonio had only recently advanced to the twenty-fourth level; the three of them simply expressed their accord, even though Brittany was the Emperor of Fars.

Charles pondered for a moment and said, “I too can contribute the Holy Light Divine State Title and some documents from the New Continent.”

Charles had already asked Master Mani from the Great Emerald Library and obtained permission, but he still held reservations because sharing some knowledge might cause immense panic, such as…

Zimmerman creating numerous children to carry consciousness!

This Secret Technique must not be tried by His Majesty Brittany, the entire Fars Empire would collapse.

It’s strange to say, but since Zimmerman’s defeat and the Evil God Tuolerdan lost an incarnation, the army from the New Continent has fallen into silence, not launching any further attacks.

The Peak Holy Order from the Old Continent, during this brief hiatus of the war, exchanged their lifetimes of cultivation experience and their explorations towards the Divine level.

The greatest gains were not made by Charles, but by Juno and Borozhet!

Both of them are just half a step away from stepping into the Divine level, and even willing to achieve it.

However, neither of them wanted to become an Evil God who loses consciousness and shatters their soul because such divinity had no meaning for them.

They desired to become deities like the Nine Great True Gods, possessing their full consciousness and complete souls, maintaining everything human rather than mutating into some kind of monster.

Charles was still far from the Sacred level peak, so all his gains required a long time to digest.

After staying in Xel City for more than twenty days, Charles originally intended to rally everyone to first kill Zimmerman, but with the convening of this Peak Holy Order meeting, he abandoned the idea.

After interacting with the Peak Holy Order, he realized something; they were decidedly not willing to make the “sacrifice” to kill Zimmerman.

Each of them bore immense responsibilities, harbored grand ideals, and held exceptional identities that were pivotal.

Going out to kill Zimmerman would be like using diamonds as a phone case decoration…

Realizing this, Charles concluded this period of exchanges, took back the Holy Light Divine State Title, and bid farewell to people like Emperor of Brittany, Antonio, and Juno.

Although he had gained a lot from his trip to Xel City, Charles felt immensely disappointed, having even missed the opportunity to propose besieging Zimmerman.

When Charles took the Holy Light Divine State Title, it noticeably saddened the entire city of Xel by a degree.

On his return journey, Charles was not as rushed.

He continuously hid mirrors along the way in large trees, mountains, and caves.

He controlled these Magic Mirrors and their Mirror Worlds, which allowed him to once again expand his own Mirror World.

After dropping hundreds of mirrors, Charles somewhat tired of the monotonous task and was about to take a rest when he suddenly sensed an impending crisis and executed the Quickness Technique, lunging forward.

A rapier stabbed towards the void where Charles had just been.

Had he not surged forward suddenly and dodged this thrust, he would have likely sustained severe injuries.

Charles took a deep breath and said, “Wood Brandon?”

An elderly man emerged from the void, gave a slight smile, and responded, “Indeed, it is I.”

“I set up numerous Magic Mirrors here, waiting to kill you when you were returning to Modova, but I didn’t expect your vigilance had increased.”

“How did you dodge my sword just now?”

Charles would not tell Wood Brandon that he had elevated his Insight to “Omniscience” and had foreseen the deadly crisis.

Charles shrugged and said, “This time, you won’t have a chance to slip away.”

Charles pointed his finger, and the Infinite Mirror Realm fully opened to block all of Wood Brandon’s escape routes.

This former Chancellor of the Fars Empire gently brought his hands together, forming a hollow embrace.

His Infinite Mirror Realm resisted the encroachment from Charles’.

Both were experts in the Van Gaal Family Secret Technique and knew they must not enter each other’s Mirror Worlds; last time, Wood Brandon had arrogantly entered Charles’ Mirror World relying on his hundreds of years of experience and suffered a great loss.

He would not make the same mistake again.
