Yadan was more than happy to comply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yadan had a hunch that something big was going on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's a bit weird, Sir.\" The officer in front of him raised his hand and presented a report.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yadan glanced over it before frowning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With their influence, there's no way Mirage abyss could directly spy on Kreo. Even the next best thing—spying on the top dogs of mars was impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, Yadan did something else long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sent spies on their children. Now, these spies were friends with the children and grandchildren of the bigshots.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yadan's gaze stopped on a particular day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the birthday of Mars' President's granddaughter. Matt Damon spoiled his granddaughter and according to her 'friends', he promised to attend her birthday party.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He never did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coincidentally, the High-general Skad didn't drop by his favorite place to drink that very day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Is it because of that impostor?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the mainstream media, the woman military escorted to Kreo was actually not his daughter, but an impostor who disguised herself as Kristine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Possible, but not likely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Kreo's eldest disciple is absent from a public meeting that he's supposed to attend.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the biggest peculiarity in Yadan's view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That disciple had his powers established in Uranus. Even if Kreo felt 'betrayed' and 'enraged' that someone faked as his daughter, it got nothing to do with his eldest disciple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay, say Kreo called them because he's pissed, did they discuss the war that day?\" Yadan walked out of his study and entered the balcony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The silvery clouds in the sky shone softly, soothing the prince's heating brain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The President, the High-general, the eldest disciple…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along with them, Yadan found that three other high-ranking officials were also 'missing'.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, the eldest disciple being there wouldn't make sense. That man was now an official of Uranus and wouldn't participate in Mars' war.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Alright, when would a disciple visit his master?\" Yadan gripped the railings of the balcony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When he either did something great when his master did something great when his master dies when his master is in trouble…\" Yadan paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe Kreo is in trouble?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More likely than not, that's impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Yadan analyzed the recent events and felt that something was off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if the abyssals 'kidnapped' Kreo's daughter, the army shouldn't allow him to declare a unilateral war.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Firstly, they didn't kidnap at all. So, there was no concrete evidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secondly, what if they did? A full-scale war was a stupid choice for humans who were continuously growing stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, war was on the brink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…On the brink.\" Yadan's eyes narrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why didn't they start the war yet?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure, the human side wasn't prepared for an all-out war, but so were they.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the humans started a surprise attack, they'd have gained an advantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But nope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The humans were preparing for a full-scale war and except for a few minor skirmishes, no major war broke out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's like humans were telling abyssals to also prepare for a full-scale war.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Preparations that'd take at least three days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are they trying to stall time?\" Yadan's eyes narrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A quote of humans came to his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really…\" Yadan's breath turned heavy and he turned around to rush into his room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Kreo really had a problem, then it all suddenly made sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything would just be a cover-up!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I should inform the Queen…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, you don't.\" A cold voice reverberated in his mind before the prince felt a searing pain in his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a mid level 8, the prince countered the psychic power in an instant and was about to attack the perpetrator when lightning engulfed him and burned him to ashes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian's body blurred as he sneaked into the castle through the open door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Killing a mid level 8 prince was only possible because he sneak attacked and the prince was a mind awakener.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it was a body awakener, Varian wouldn't be able to kill them with the lightning strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few seconds later, Varian exited the castle, drenched in green blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just when he did, the city was crushed to the ground as if an invisible hammer struck it down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the sixth city that they took down so far.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they regrouped in the room after a shower, Varian looked at Sia with a worried expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was fiddling with her sword with a bloodthirsty smile on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More than eight million abyssals died in Sia's hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how weak most of these eight million were, it's a ridiculous number.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'The Mirage Abyss is going to be turned upside down.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Varian was ecstatic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could do this city destruction in every abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure, he couldn't mass kill level 8s and level 9s.
