LEGENDARY GUARDIAN 260 Chapter 260: Permanently

Hearing Karl's words, Agus felt troubled as well. There are other gold realm masters in the kingdom like Francis the nature mage, Ahika the fire demon, and even Diana the moon cosmic spirit host. Should these people be forced to make a move, they will truly find it really troublesome. Even though they had two undead generals like Aldora and Kalos on their side, but these people can only hold one gold realm master off each. If even one gold realm master from those three should escape the undead generals and join the battle, their team will be easily obliterated as quickly as they gathered. Agus has stayed with Cyrus for a very long time and he could easily tell the difference between a silver realm elite and a gold realm master, considering the strength of the fact that these people are just a step away from the mid-grade of the gold real, its safe to say that they are stronger than they use to be when they were still at the low grade of the gold realm. To deal with such people they will definitely need to put together a force of highly talented silver realm elites who have been in the realm for more than five years and are not too far from the gold realm.

"When that happens we will deal with it… You don't need to bother yourself" Kira answered nonchalantly.

"Yea… Its just three gold realm masters…. Pfft" Kuen chuckled.

"There you have it… that's our answer, if you wish to cooperate with us, we just need to help us make sure none of these people flee the empire…" Kin said only after the other two commanders were done speaking.

Hearing them joke about the matter everyone was stunned! How is it possible that these people are so nonchalant when presented with such an important issue. These are three gold realm masters they are talking about not normal warriors! These people have the superior backing of a guardian spirit and a cosmic spirit, they are not easily dealt with! Yet these people actually laughed when the issue was brought up to them. Even Agus was stunned and confused at the same time, he was wondering where these people got their confidence from.

The first decision he didn't completely agree with was rejecting the forces of these people. They are going against the forces of almost the whole empire, its no small force, and these people will be in the hundreds of thousands in terms of numbers. Join forces with the palace of the death will only slightly give them over thirty to fifty thousand, the number gap is too great, putting them at a disadvantaged position. Now they also rejected a once in a lifetime offer from a group of peak experts of the past generation who wants to help them and pin down the gold realm masters, yet they rejected their offer and played it off with jokes and laughs. At this point, Agus began doubting that Derik, Cyrus, and Kaido ever left! Maybe they are hiding somewhere, probably waiting for the battle to start before they pop out and kill everyone.

"How can you be so confident even without Derik and Cyrus backing you…" Donald has always been hot-headed from the beginning, so he easily got agitated when he heard Kira and the other two treat such a serious matter as a joke.

"Didn't I tell you? Our palace of death is not so weak that it needs outside help! There are dangerous monsters living on this mountain that will even terrify the gold realm masters… I hope you will accept our offer and be on your way… We have lots of preparations to make" Kira sneered disdainfully.

With this, no one argued any further. They could only agree to Kin's condition of partners.h.i.+p and left with a sour taste in their mouth. They didn't necessarily hate the palace of death, in fact, they are amongst the few people that believe in these people's methods.

Even though no one would like to admit it publicly, the empire has always been stable due to Derik's special method of handling issues. All those who bore ill intentions could only dream about it and never actually actualize it. Thanks to Derik's actions, no race looked down on the other and even if they did, no one dared show his discontent publicly and act against others from other races. The plan to unite all races in the continent only succeeded because of Derik. In reality, love can never hold a nation together, its impossible for everyone to love, humans are born evil, cruel, and selfish. Love can only suppress these emotions for a short while but it can never completely eradicate these negative emotions. Not everyone can love but fear is something else entirely!

Derik has proven time and time again that fear is the only way to unite these people. Even G.o.ds fear death, those who cannot love can always feel fear, no one is immune to it, not even Derik. With the power of fear, Derik successfully united three different races and made them live within one empire. His methods prevented the first civil war and also brought about the death of members of the older generation who bore ill intentions against the newly formed empire. Even if everyone hated him for killing people related to them in some way, Derik still saved the empire from a war which will lead to the death of more people, more than the number of people he killed that day.

In the end, the children and siblings of those who were murdered by Derik that very day have decided to have their revenge on the two sects that have always suppressed them for years now. The destruction of the sects will bring about the destruction of the empire. Not only will they lose the protection of the two most powerful people in the continent, but they will also lose, Kaido's protection as well, and when these masters return from their journey, they will also most likely burn what's left of the empire to the ground.

"These n.o.bles are dumb… I believe this empire will flourish without them…" Gerald sighed ruefully.
