Dragon Monarch System Chapter 1067:- Start of Attack
Previously on Dragon Monarch System...
"Ren harbored aspirations of becoming Emperor. Even before my birth, he was designated as the future Emperor of the Empire. However, upon my arrival, I was named Crown Prince. Knowing he couldn't depose me directly, he conspired with the organization to seize control of my parents' minds and orchestrate my expulsion."
"It was only from my tenth birthday onward that my parents began to exhibit a noticeable coldness, distance, and strangeness."
"Even when Alfred was unjustly accused of a crime he did not commit, my father offered no protection. Instead, Alfred was banished to a distant, desolate location where he was held in isolation."
Aditya proceeded to divulge every detail of the Organization's clandestine operations and his knowledge of their activities. Witnessing this, Harrington and his family appeared to be profoundly shaken, questioning the very foundations of their reality.
"Aditya, our objective was to win this civil war. Now, however, we absolutely cannot afford to falter. The puppet controlled by the League of Black Tomb must be dethroned, and the Organization's very existence must be eradicated from every city under its sway."
Aditya then delivered another staggering revelation. "The Organization has a penchant for infiltrating agents. It is highly probable that some servants, soldiers, or individuals within your employ, or even one or two members of the Harrington faction, are currently acting as scouts or outer operatives for the Organization."
"There exists a significant likelihood that some of your personnel are already compromised and working for the organization."
*This also implies a substantial risk of the organization possessing sensitive intelligence concerning the Harrington family and the broader Harrington faction." Upon hearing this, Wahid and Harrington's countenances darkened. The more they learned about the organization, the more they grasped its perilous nature.
"The Organization must be purged without delay," Harrington declared, viewing the Organization as a societal canker, much like Aditya, infecting the entire Main Continent and the world.
"So, we will not be facing Ren alone then." The Organization pledged its complete support to Ren and his aligned forces.
"However, the Organization's most potent weapon against us is their capacity for intelligence gathering. Given our ignorance of the Organization's scouts' identities, it is virtually impossible to ascertain whom to trust," Wahid expressed his concern.
"To that end, all of my subordinates, their men, and anyone with access to any form of sensitive information pertaining to my Empire must affix their signature to a soul-binding contract. This ensures they do not inadvertently divulge any details."
"I strongly advise all of you to adopt the same measure."
Wahid's eyes gleamed at this suggestion. His nephew displayed remarkable astuteness.
"We shall commence this process as early as tonight." This strategy would also prove instrumental in unmasking any potential informants within the Harrington Family and the entire faction.
Their deliberations spanned several hours. Consequently, by the culmination of the family meeting, darkness had enveloped the surroundings.
Suddenly, the sound of an explosion echoed through the air.
"What is occurring?" With a sweep of his hand, Harrington manipulated the curtains using wind magic. The night sky, which should have been adorned with stars and the cityscape of Axel, was now illuminated by an innumerable array of fireworks.
"Who is responsible for this?" Wahid inquired, his brow furrowed.
It became evident from his question that even the Duke was unaware of any scheduled fireworks display within the city. Furthermore, orchestrating such a grand, city-wide event without the explicit consent of the City Lord would be inconceivable. This pointed towards an unauthorized spectacle. Observing this, Aditya was suddenly gripped by a profound sense of foreboding.
Aditya’s gaze shifted towards the Goddess of Wisdom. Similar to him, she too harbored a disquieting premonition regarding the unfolding events. In fact, her apprehension surpassed his own.
She had already risen to her feet, her gaze fixed outward, her expression etched with severe concern.
"What has happened?" Rin inquired with curiosity.
"I have a strong premonition that we are under attack."
