chapter-815
"We divide them to make sure that they never unite against us, and we keep leeching everything from them! Do you remember all those incidents such as those violently even killing people in protest of some or the other group's policies? One was there three years ago, another five ago, and one more was exactly seven years ago, on this day! We fake those things, so that people support either side! We manipulate them into thinking that they can change their fate by using their vote, but the truth is that no matter who comes into power, it is us they listen to! Those in our family are at the head of each and every organization, and we directly promote them, but no one can ask! If anyone does find out anything, we directly kill them, and again, there are no questions asked because we control the law enforcement, too! It's all a sham, and it's the greatest one to exist! Marry me, and rise above all of those sheep to be a princess! A princess, I tell you! You'll get everything you ever wanted, and even if you want to kill a few people for revenge, you can do so! You remember that beloved leader 15 years ago who was so popular because he promised that he would change the very base of the government? He got killed in a freak accident, but the truth was that one of the pets of my sister had a grudge against him, and she had him killed to appease him! Oh, don't be so afraid of that word! I'm different from them! They're all bored of having so much unopposed power that they have started to take on random people as pets whom they have fun with for a few years and then discard, but I've been looking for a wife all this time, and you fit the bill perfectly! That's why I'm meeting you like this even though it is risky and forbidden!"
The man went on and on, and the entire island was at a standstill as they listened to the incredible things that were being revealed to them.
Unknown to them, though, an impressive battle was currently taking place at the location from where the explosion had just been heard.
"He's using the Fire path modified to create fire demons- use ice cages."
"That guy has the earthquake path. Solidify the Earth.""He has the Water Path. Use an interweaving web of fire, then increase the general temperature.."
Daneel was currently standing behind four of his sovereigns, who were each fighting against multiple Champions.
This, in itself, was such an incredible thing that many in the Order must surely be riveted to the display, but it was his performance which was actually the most impressive.
No matter who came, he would look at them for a second and then immediately shout out their Champion Path and the way to counter them, and each and every thing he had said so far had been extremely effective, allowing his subordinates to effectively stop an army even though they were so few.
Of course, they had also planned very meticulously to make sure that they would not be overrun. There were multiple levels of barriers which would easily stop anyone from entering the broadcasting station and stopping the truth that was being shown to the island.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.
More and more people kept coming, but they were too late. This was a plan that had been in the making for almost 3 months, and there was no way that Daneel and his team had overlooked anything.
Multiple things kept popping up. Some Champions were called upon by their families who insisted that they should not go to war because of what they had just discovered, and others found themselves being threatened that their families would die if they followed their orders.Hence, even though 40 champions had been dispatched to this place, only eight had arrived, and they were all being carefully handled by Daneel's sovereigns without him needing to even raise a hand.
They even had a minute until everything escalated, so, as he was bored, Daneel decided that he would have a chat with his sovereign who was having the easiest time – Faxul.
Faxul was a Champion, himself, so knowing the counter allowed him to add what Daneel suggested to his attacks which almost assured instant victory. Of course, this wouldn't have been possible if he didn't have such an incredible Bloodline in the first place.
Even though they were just Warriors, Aran and Cassandra were handling multiple Champions because of certain formations that amplified their power, which had been set up beforehand. They were almost like gun turrets which shot forward attacks after multiplying their power multiple times, and even though they were costly, there were perfect for the situation.
Faxul had just gotten back after beating three Champions into the ground, so it was the perfect time.
"Doesn't this bring back pleasant memories, Faxul? Remember our first grand scheme, against the Kingdom of the Elves, and that Queen who died in such a proud manner? Even there, we exposed the truth, and although our plan here is similar to that one, I have to say that it represents how far we've come. This one is much more sophisticated in the manner that it is being carried out, and it will also be all the more effective because of the special situation of this island that we have found."
Hearing this, Faxul remarked, "That's true."
"In these cases where something is going on in a shadowy manner, the truth is all that matters. When citizens are exposed to the truth that they can achieve nothing if they remain calm… That is where a revolution begins. Oh, look- it's the time for the main part of the conversation. After this, the fun begins!"
The entire upper echelons of the island were in a frenzy, because they had been caught completely off-guard, and even their Champions whom they always kept on hand had somehow been targeted so that there was a delay in deploying them.
They were trying everything, from trying to send out intercepting signals that would stop the broadcast, to sending out people to directly disconnect the display trinkets.
All of their attempts kept being stopped, though, because it was almost like their opponent had read their minds and had already planned for everything that they might do.
At the same time as they did all these things, there was one thing in the back of their minds which they really, really hoped would not happen.
As they watched on, though… That was exactly what came to be.
The woman in the broadcast had been silent until here, but taking a sip elegantly from the glass that was in front of her, she spoke for the first time, and her voice had a certain effect to it which almost put those listening into a trance.
"What you say is so incredible, My Lord, and I cannot help but agree that if one connects the dots, then this does seem to be the truth. But what if people eventually find out all this? What if someone tells everyone? Wouldn't all of our lives be at stake? Oh, that worries me so!"
If everyone listening knew that the voice of the woman was a major part of the reason behind this conversation even taking place, they would definitely be shocked.
This question actually brought forth the most laughter from the man, who continued to laugh and laugh until he had to hold his sides as they must've started to hurt.
Finally, though… He gave the answer that acted as the tipping point.
"That's the beauty of it all! What can they even do? The authorities that they have trusted for all their lives are the exact same people who will do everything to keep them in the same way that they are, so no matter who they go to, all they will get is frustration! I don't mean to be crass, but my brothers have a certain game where they get these so-called revolutionaries and then bet on who will break them first. They expose them to the actual truth, and they even give them free rein to try and bring any sort of change. These visionaries end up trying everything- they go to the law enforcement, to the two groups, and even to normal people, but everywhere, they will either find ridicule or disbelief. The game ends with them killing themselves because they see no way to bring any change! That's exactly how the truth is. Those sheep will continue to trust us, and we will keep exploiting them. The only, only thing that can make something change is if all of them rise up together, but just think about it. There is, like, zero chance of that happening! This same type of thing is used in multiple places, honey, and in each and every one, not once has it happened. Even if it does, we have certain safeguards which will divide them again, and keep them distracted from the main issue! We have agents spread as normal people all over the island who will speak out and confuse people, and if absolutely necessary, they will be the ones who will cause more false violent incidents that will also not sidetrack everyone! So you have nothing to worry about, darling. By the way, we can even marry in the clouds and go flying if you wish…"
Daneel could almost hear the rest of those fro the Church collectively smacking their heads as they heard their family member give the idea that was most essential to this plan.
Ever since he had started on this mission after deciding that he would make this happen, he had found more and more things to help him. It was almost like this was how it was always intended to be, as he had also found this perfect person from the family who had a very specific set of requirements that he was looking for in a woman, whom he wanted to marry. He was an eccentric, and it was him that they had all targeted. They had collected information carefully by listening to gossip in the places that the man frequented, and Eloise was also given a Warrior-level spell that gave her voice a certain charm that attracted him to her even more, and because she was just a Human, she wasn't considered a threat.
All of that planning had resulted in this one moment, and its aftermath… went in the exact way that he had expected.
All over the island, the shock of the people who had not wanted to believe it slowly started to turn into rage, because there was more than enough proof to make it simply impossible to be ignored. They knew all of the events that happened that had been referred to, and many had even connected the dots before themselves but had come up to the conclusion that it was too far-fetched. By now, though… It was obvious that it was the truth. It did not help at all that the potbellied man in question was a famous socialite who was known for traveling in the island and having his way, so him saying it gave it all the more credibility.
Those who moved first, of course, were the 300,000 who were near the headquarters.
Daneel had already replaced people among them who would beat them up into a frenzy if the video didn't work, but it turned out that he didn't need to do that. There were already other revolutionaries among them who had stayed hidden all this while, and they saw the chance and took it.
This resulted in most of the 300,000 marching to the headquarters, disregarding all of the barriers that were in place. More started to come from all over the island, using teleportation and other means to quickly make their way over.
A full on revolution was in swing, and the Army had to be completely reassigned to handle these people. They could not use lethal means as they had a certain death toll which they had to stick to as anything above that would affect the amount of power being extracted from the continent through the Will, and hence, they were stuck with using multiple Champions simply to build more barriers or use nonlethal means that kept getting overcome.
In all this chaos, it was the simplest thing for Daneel and the others to calmly walk into the headquarters, and on the way, they came upon a very peculiar sight.
A bunch of Champions were all surrounding a group, and among them was the Underlord, who had suddenly found himself targeted by a large batch of Champions while he had been listening with shock to everything that was going on outside.
They had come so suddenly, as if they knew where they were waiting, and they were at a stalemate at the moment.
As soon as Daneel and his sovereigns reached the place where this was happening while disguised as the Champions whom they had disabled when they had been sent to target the broadcasting station, he shouted something that made the Underlord understand what the hell had happened.
"Yes, get them, comrades! We got their location from those we defeated in the broadcasting station! We will be going ahead to protect the Family! No matter what you do, don't let them move!"
As all 26 Champions looked at Daneel and his group with wide-open eyes and hanging jaws, the five calmly strolled inside.
Yet, Daneel couldn't resist from sending one last message, and it was the one that made the Underlord almost froth at his mouth with frustration.
"See? I told you I wouldn't touch the headquarters, but the doors were open, so I couldn't help myself! Have a nice day, and do prepare to hand over the rewards!"
