Chapter 410: Star, the Prezias (2)
[The Celestial Unknown Ancient Celestial has evicted all uninvited guests on Eos!]
[Numerous Star Signs of the Society have been blocked from Eos, terminating their connections.]
[The Arcadian Imperial Army surrounding Clio City has been forcibly sent back to where they came from.]
Reading the chain of messages popping up before him, Trevilles jaw dropped to the floor. The planet has been completely freed from the control of ? How is this possible?
Although Divine Twilight had sent twenty-seven Star Signs plummeting from the sky, Arcadia was the domain of . Taking a planet from it was a completely different story. Divine Twilight essentially showed that he was strong enough to fend off the Zodiacs and was confident that he would never lose in a fight against them.
[The Celestial Unknown Ancient Celestial is summoning her scattered subordinates and followers from all over the civilization Arcadia back to Eos!]
[The Society has branded the independence of Eos as treason and will be sending a punitive expedition against it!]
[The Arcadian Empire has labeled Eos as a planet of high-treason criminals and is discussing its extermination.]
[The Inspection Bureau of the Arcadian Empire is planning a conquest against Eos, which the Revolutionary Army is currently occupying.]
[The Arcadian Imperial Army.]
[All the defense systems]
Treville gulped down his saliva. The messages that popped up before him would greatly influence Arcadias state of affairs. Hence, he couldnt just take them lightly.
And theyre keeping me captive!
Although weve captured you, they wont consider you valuable enough to negotiate for, Chang-Sun said, realizing what Treville was thinking. Seeing the surprise on Trevilles face, he chuckled. Why do you look so shocked? Have you already forgotten who I am?
Ah! Treville slowly nodded in realization. Chang-Sun was a Celestial who had gone through . He was more than capable of seeing through his mind.
What are you planning to do with me? Treville couldnt understand why Chang-Sun bothered making Procyon leave him here.
Well, thats not up to me to decide.
Treville wasnt expecting that answer. However, before he could ask what Chang-Sun meant
What is your relationship with Jan Prezia?
Tap, tap!
Jin Prezia slowly walked up from behind Chang-Sun. Despite emitting bone-chilling ice energy, his eyes were blazing up as he stared at Treville.
H-how do you know my grandfathers name?
So youre his grandson, not his son
Jins bitter smile looked so plaintive that Treville had trouble speaking.
What about Jan? Judging from your tattoo, you seem to be his first grandson How could he let his own grandson become the apostle of an idiot who isnt even a Zodiac? At your age, you should be learning how to lead your family or studying abroad in other civilizations. What in the world happened to the family?!
Jin, Chang-Sun said.
Talk to me. What could have possibly happened to the family that youre out here doing mundane!
Jin! Chang-Sun shouted.
Only then did Jin realize that he was grabbing onto his grandnephews shoulders and pressing down on him. His ice energy was about to freeze Trivelle up.
Trivelle looked at Jin with trembling lips, his breath visibly white.
Im sorry. I embarrassed myself.
Jin clenched his fists and took a couple of steps backward.
Who are you? Why are you talking about my grandfather with so much disrespect? Treville asked, trying his best not to stammer.
Our family has been branded as high-treason criminals, Treville said.
What? Our family committed treason?Jin asked in surprise.
With his teeth clenched, Treville shook his head. We would never do that, and we never had a reason to either. The Prezia Family made great contributions to the founding of Arcadia. People would have continued to respect and praise us even if we did nothing. Besides, Grandfather is!
Yeah, Jan wasnt really the aggressive type.Jin nodded. He and his brother had very different personalities. Unlike Jin, who was belligerent, Jan loathed fighting.
Why are we branded as criminals, then?
We were framed, Treville answered bitterly.
Framed? Is the Imperial Family behind it?
Yes. Treville nodded.
Why would they do that? They wouldnt be able to find more loyal allies than us.
Just like their long history and vast area of influence, Arcadia had very complicated power struggles in central politics, the most famous of which was the one between the Imperial Family and the nobles. Through it all, the Prezia Family supported the Imperial Family for generations.
During the generation before Jins, the Imperial Family even had a huge internal conflict about succession. The Prezia Family stepped up and put an end to it, allowing the Imperial Family to maintain their power without causing discord in Arcadia. Why would the Imperial Family frame such a loyal family?
Trevilles head drooped. They found our familys power and prestige burdening. It was already too late when I discovered it.
Jin gritted his teeth, realizing that the Prezia Family was treated like a dog. They were discarded as soon as the hunt ended.
They were worried about our family turning our backs on them.
Thats right. Treville nodded with a heavy heart, his eyes slightly reddened. The Inspection Bureau and Arcadian Imperial Army had already made a move before we could do anything about it.
Jan, a commanding officer on a battlefield at the time, was arrested on the spot. The Arcadian Imperial Army then ambushed the other family members and killed them one after another before they could convene their vassals and soldiers.
What about the Star Order? Did just watch the Imperial Family do that?
They did. Considering their lack of action, they were probably colluding with the Imperial Family at the time.
Everything we offered until now was for nothing Jins eyes filled up with murderous intent. What happened after that?
Unlike the other elders, who were sentenced to death after several trials, Grandfather was sentenced to having his ability to use mana disabled.
If your granduncle was with our family at the time maybe we wouldnt have gone through any of this.
Where have you been all this time? Treville asked as he remembered Jans not-so-last words. Grandfather spent a long time looking for you.
I have no excuse for what I did.Jin shut his eyes. No matter what he said right now, it wouldnt be able to make up for his karma.
Continuing his story, Treville told Jin that his father desperately tried to revive the fallen family but passed away in a foreign land due to unknown causes. Their vassals scattered all over Arcadia because of the price they had to pay despite their loyalty, and his grandfather spent the rest of his life apologizing to their family.
Eventually, as the last heir of the Prezia Family, Treville joined the Star Order to rebuild their prestige.
If Mother hadnt been the pillar of the family, the family would have already crumbled, Treville added, ending his narrative.
Jin could feel fury and sorrow rising within him but didnt vent them out. He was a Dread Undead, an envoy of death. He brought extreme coldness everywhere he went.
He would ensure he would get his revenge with a heart as cold as ice.
Master.
Jin turned to Chang-Sun, who listened to them in silence.
Chang-Sun nodded. My subordinates family is my family. Ive been actually wondering how I should attack the Imperial Family, but it seems I dont have to worry about it anymore.
Thank you. I wont forget this.
Well aware that Chang-Sun would never go back on his words, Jin could finally look at his grandnephew with a lighter heart.
Then go down on one knee in front of me right now, Treville.
Trevilles eyes reflected Jins solemn expression, which made him seem fit to become the head of their family.
I will appoint you as my apostle. You are to spearhead bringing down the Imperial Family.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
