himself at a loss for words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mind railed with all sorts of answers and ideas, yet none could counter the iron determination Minxet had just displayed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After nearly thirty seconds of burning through every possible strategy, he sighed and shook his head in resignation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did uncover my actions.” Minxet’s eyes sharpened, and a cold, murderous glint appeared in them as he heard Razputin’s admission of guilt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, in the next instant, confusion clouded Minxet’s expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man of the Inferno Daemon Race showed absolutely no fear despite having admitted his crimes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was resignation and defeat, yes, but no sign of impending doom on the face of a man who was about to face punishment a hundred times worse than death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could someone remain so composed when condemned to such a fate?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minxet’s confusion only grew stronger as the Scarlet King, Cain, showed no sign of wrath or coldness either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The King’s eyes revealed some disappointment, but beyond that there was nothing-no fury, no vengeful malice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It made no sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minxet’s mind churned, trying to reconcile what he knew with what he saw unfolding before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is going on?” Minxet wondered silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as these thoughts crossed Minxet’s mind, Cain shook his head, still focusing on Razputin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Isn’t the goal of a secret organization to remain secret?” Razputin, the Chief Counselor from the Inferno Daemon Race, wore a complicated expression before sighing softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ahhh, it was supposed to be a secret to everybody.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I did my best to ensure no one knew anything about it, but this old man is simply too stubborn.” He shrugged his shoulders with a casualness that bordered on the surreal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Anyone else would have given up, but he kept pushing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How can I compete with that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I think Your Highness would agree that I did everything right.” Cain studied Razputin for a few seconds, then nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You did indeed do everything right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even after parsing through all the data from the computer rings and A.I.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>chips of the world, I uncovered nothing.” Razputin puffed out his chest slightly, pride flickering across his face as he nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hah, of course, Your Highness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It took a lot of hard work, but I managed to cut down all forms of information recording during meetings.” “What is happening!?” The shout came from Minxet, who could no longer contain his bewilderment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The usually composed Prime Minister of the Godslayer Humankind Empire now looked on the verge of an aneurysm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His calm aura had vanished completely, and he seemed utterly incapable of processing this bizarre turn of events.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment ago, he had exposed Razputin as a traitor, only to find Cain and Razputin conversing as though the entire matter were some clever game they played together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An awkward expression appeared on Cain’s and Razputin’s faces as they noticed Minxet’s near-hysterical confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was clear that an explanation was needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Old man,” Razputin began, addressing Minxet in a careful, soothing tone, “you were correct in many things, including the fact that I am the Grand Elder of that secret rebellious organization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But you were wrong in one aspect: I am not its leader.” Minxet’s eyes widened with utter shock and stupefaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Razputin was not the leader, then who-?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The answer came even before he could form the question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Razputin raised his hand, pointing to Cain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Minxet saw Cain nodding, confirming the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The true leader of the rebellion that opposed the Scarlet King’s reign was Cain himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why?” The single word slipped from Minxet’s lips, heavy with confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why would the Scarlet King go through all this trouble, using Razputin as a proxy to create a rebellious organization that directly confronted his own reign?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed like a mad puzzle with no logical solution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cain could sense the waves of confusion assaulting Minxet’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Prime Minister’s thoughts were likely racing with theories and contradictions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To help clarify, Cain turned to Razputin again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you have the last large meeting of the organization recorded?” “Yes, my King.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to your instructions, I have recorded all the meetings and interactions of the organization,” Razputin immediately replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Show it,” Cain commanded, nodding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Razputin focused on his computer ring, and the next second, a holographic projection appeared on the ceiling of the throne room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minxet looked up and found himself staring at a massive underground facility filled with tens of thousands of people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this projection, the essence of a fascist gathering permeated the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd was drawn from the six Sacred Races, but they were clearly divided into their own camps, separated by race and old rivalries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their mutual distrust was evident as members of one race glared at those of another with open hostility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, for all their xenophobia and simmering hatred, they were here, together, focused on a singular cause.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a twisted unity forged through collective resentment, a toxic alliance of those who despised the Scarlet King’s order and yearned for blood and conquest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within the projection, one could see each racial faction standing apart, forming their own clusters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some had banners emblazoned with old symbols harking back to eras of war.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Others muttered slurs under their breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The atmosphere crackled with malice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t the harmonious blending of cultures that Cain’s rule encouraged; it was a gathering of bigots who found unity only in their shared desire to tear down the current regime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The essence of a fascist congregation was unmistakable: chest-thumping, snarling hatred, slogans of supremacy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The oppressive energy in the hall was almost palpable, reminiscent of grand rallies where logic and empathy were sacrificed at the altar of fanaticism.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All these thousands of angry souls were focused on the figure at the front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man was covered in shadows, but Minxet could tell it was none other than Razputin acting as their Grand Elder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His presence commanded attention, and he spoke in a distorted voice so that none might recognize him easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We are present here despite our hatred and animosity,” Razputin’s voice rang out, projected clearly in the throne room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd in the hologram listened intently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Because we have a goal: to return the world to its natural state and wash away the Scarlet Ideology!” Immediately, the crowd erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tens of thousands of people began to shout, their voices blending into a thunderous roar of hatred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their eyes blazed with loathing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They stomped and chanted in a frenzy, calling for the downfall of the Scarlet King’s order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The xenophobia that divided them was temporarily overshadowed by their collective hatred for what Cain represented-order, peace, and cooperation between races.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here, they craved a return to a ‘natural state’ of eternal conflict and strife, a twisted nostalgia for endless war.\u003C\u002Fp>",1139,"2026-06-02T09:45:40.610Z",1,"novelbin.me","2d38f21c298fab3fd222e8d07491c10d6392ee674280a50b6698df08bf108211","the-epic-tale-of-chaos-vs-order-chapter-1355","the-epic-tale-of-chaos-vs-order-chapter-1353",2587,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-epic-tale-of-chaos-vs-order-cover.jpg"]
