Thirteen walked on the Aircraft Carrier’s hallway while looking at the data chip in his hand.
Truth be told, even without the data chip, Thirteen could come up with the same results.
All he needed to do was look at the monsters, and he would be able to search for them in his own database.
As long as there were no new breeds of monsters that popped up during the three-hundred-year period since Thirteen had last been in Solterra, he was confident that he could compile his own Jinn Compendium that would surpass whatever the Dvalinn Federation possessed.
Still, the compiled information handed to him was useful, for it would allow him to explain why he knew a lot of things about the monsters in the Rigel Continent.
He could just say “I knew about this information because of the exchange I had with Eldrod Clan, the Rhodes Family, the Riggs Family, as well as the Nightshade Family.”
No one would become suspicious of him, and no one would question this information.
The moment Thirteen entered his room, he was greeted by the sight of Tiona, who was busy watching a show on Television.
The Black Snake had developed a new hobby of watching Documentaries about Solterra, which Thirteen found very amusing.
‘Two more days, and we will finally set sail to the Rigel Continent,’ Thirteen thought as Tiona coiled around his neck and demanded his attention.
The meeting he had with the Patriarchs of the Prestigious Families ended on a good note, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
His true concern was what would happen tomorrow.
According to the representatives of the Elrod Clan, their Patriarch wanted to meet him. However, something came up in Solterra that needed his immediate attention.
Something that would force a Monarch to personally take action couldn’t be a simple matter.
But Thirteen was fine in not meeting Wendell Elrod, who was one of the six Monarchs in the world.
He would deal with them once his preparations were complete. For now, he was fine with letting them do whatever they wanted to do.
“I’m sleepy, Tiona. Do you want to sleep with me?” Thirteen asked.
The black snake nodded her head to answer her Master’s question.
It had been a long day, and frankly, he just wanted to sleep early in preparation for their upcoming expedition in the Rigel Continent. freēwēbnovel.com
While Thirteen was planning to sleep, there were people inside the Aircraft Carrier who were busy talking with the Elders of their families to give their report.
One of these people was Alexis McKnight, who was an agent secretly sent by the Griffin Clan, who was stationed in the Cygni Continent.
They were very curious as to why the Central Government decided to give Zion Leventis such a high rank despite the fact that he had just joined their organization.
Also, they wanted to keep tabs on the Wanderer who was deemed to stay as a Rookie for life.
Behind closed doors, there were rumors spreading in Pangea that the Laplace Demon and The One had become too scared of Zion’s potential that they decided to put restrictions on his body so that he wouldn’t be able to become strong in both worlds.
Whether these rumors were true or not, the fact remained that Thirteen did have restrictions placed on his body.
The young boy purposely made his information public so that it would make those who were jealous of him feel a bit better because, in their eyes, he no longer had a future.
It also lowered the guard of the Monarch Clans, as well as the Prestigious Families.
The last thing that they wanted to happen was for another genius like Gerald to appear in the Leventis Family, which could potentially change the status quo.
Before the reveal, some of them were even plotting to assassinate Thirteen before he became too famous and too influential.
But after seeing his status page, they felt pity for the boy, so they decided to just leave him be.
He might’ve managed to do some incredible things, but at the end of the day, a Rookie would never be able to shake the foundations of their family’s power.
Alexis looked at the man in the projection in front of him with a solemn gaze.
“How long will you be staying in the Dvalinn Federation?” the man asked.
“Two more days,” Alexis replied. “After that, we will head to the Rigel Continent as scheduled.”
“Did you gather any important information as of late?”
“The only thing I know is that Zion and the Patriarchs had a meeting after dinner. We were ordered to not leave the ship, so I wasn’t able to confirm who else went to their meeting.
The man nodded in understanding. “Just make sure to keep an eye on him. His desire to visit the Rigel Continent must mean that there is something important there that he needed to see or confirm.
“I’m sure that the other Families were thinking of the same thing. But right now, no one can casually enter the Rigel Continent without getting permission from the Dvalinn Federation.
“Those people are still unable to move on, and still stuck in their dream of regaining their homeland,” the man commented with a wry smile on his face. “But who am I to judge, when my own continent is about to face the same fate as them?”
Alexis looked calmly at the man in front of him, who lorded over the Rigel Continent for the past three hundred years.
“Don’t forget your mission, Alexis,” the Patriarch of the Griffin Clan, Ray Griffin, said. “Don’t let me down.”
“Yes, Your Excellency,” Alexis replied. “You can count on me.”
Ray nodded before cutting off the connection.
‘I don’t understand why everyone is so concerned about Zion Leventis,’ Alexis mulled as he thought about his Battalion Commander. ‘Sure, he might have done a lot of amazing things in the past, but that is all in the past. He won’t be making any waves again.’
Alexis was one of those people who believed that Zion Leventis no longer had a future.
Yet for some reason, many people still wanted to know whatever he was doing.
Perhaps everyone just wanted to hear more miraculous stories, given the desperate situation that the world was facing.
During these times, everyone was looking for a Hero. This was why the Central Government had created their own “Hero Unit,” which was also making waves in both Solterra and Pangea.
‘Whatever. As long as I’m getting paid, I don’t have to worry about the specifics,’ Alexis thought as he laid down on his bed to finally get some sleep.
He decided that he would know whether the teenage boy was the real deal or not after arriving at the Rigel Continent, which would become their Battalion’s first opportunity to face a future that they were trying so hard to prevent from happening again.
