283 Chapter 282: Joining the military
Cecile looked next to the Allen family carriage with a heavy look on his face. His family had gathered to see him off after he had decided to join the military for the sake of his family’s growth. He had decided to do as Damon says if they must survive this.
By the way, he could feel the changes going on all over his body. He could feel Damon getting stronger and he was getting stronger. His body wasn’t as weak as before and even though his fighting skills were not on par with that of Damon, he has been training for the past three months and he was openly praised by his instructor as he is much stronger than the average person.
The thought of it dragged his mind back to the image of the man seated within. The darkness of his mind.
“You have to be careful out there. If things get too tough, you can always come back” Lady Anna wept and Cecile nodded with a sweet smile as he hugged his mother.
“Big brother, Kill a lot of bad guys for me!” cute Lisa said with a cute yet fierce face which lightened up the mood.
“You chose the right path,” Bruce Allen said as he gave his brother a huge.
He deeply appreciated the fact that Cecile has made his stance clear repeatedly regarding the family issues. He had no intentions of leading the family and because of that life has been smooth for Bruce.
“You got this kiddo” Robert fist-bumped Cecile on the chest gently and gave him a warm smile.
In his opinion, his son was sacrificing a lot to build their family name. It was worth his respect.
.....
“Are you sure you don’t know what Elka to know about this?” Lady Anna asked which made Cecile sigh bitterly.
“It is for the best….He made the right decision” Robert quickly stood in and backed up Cecile.
At this point in his life, he should be focused on his goals and not on women. The time for that will come.
By the way, he was still very young, he had a lot of time on his hands.
As soon as they were done wishing him farewell, they boarded the carriage and began their journey.
“The killings going on in the residential areas are all right?” Cecile asked while looking out the window.
He wasn’t dumb so after staying with Damon for three months found out Damon could only take over his body while he is asleep or unconscious and using that as an advantage, he has been killing and gaining strength from that. That’s how they were getting stronger so fast.
“I have only taken the lives of thugs and robbers, making the residential area safer for the people you nobles refuse to fight for” Damon’s cold voice rang in its ears.
“Of course, I have no problem with that. I’m just afraid killing is not the only thing you are doing” Cecile responded calmly.
“....” Damon was silent for a moment before he spoke.
“Cocky brat. You dare try to peer into the mind of God? You wish to know my true intentions?” Damon asked in a curious tone.
For some reason, he liked this kid’s guts.
“There is no harm in trying” Cecile laughed bitterly and Damon was quiet for another minute as If he was pondering.
“I have been searching for information on the dark church but I still couldn’t find clues after three months” Damon finally spoke up.
“Of course, you won’t find anything. If they had a base of operation within the empire do you think they would have been able to hide from the Emperor?” Cecile asked with a raised eyebrow.
“It has been determined that they come and leave through some secret route but they never stay” Cecile added and Damon was silent while he pondered the information he just received.
“What did your sister mean by killing the bad guys? Are there people outside the dark church still giving the empire issues?” Damon suddenly asked and Cecile frowned.
“Of course. How the hell do you not know? After your death, the dragon’s race swore loyalty to the God of death and destruction because he consumed all the ancestors and became their ancestral black dragon god. You became a god for all… we keep hearing there are dragons and beasts outside the walls which are remnants of your demonic army” Cecile said.
“Have you confirmed this information?” Damon asked calmly.
“I have never been to the front lines so I can’t say but soldier there have confirmed it. The only spooky part about it is that these beasts just come from nowhere. There are no cities or empires or camps. They just appear and vanish out of existence.
Upon hearing this Damon who sat in a cross-legged position couldn’t help but widen his eye while seated in a cross-legged position.
“He is still alive?” Damon muttered with a shaky voice.
Even Cecile could feel some emotions from the cold god of death. He was curious to know who was worthy enough to get this kind of attention from a tyrant like Damon.
“Who is he?” Cecile asked slowly while silently praying he would get an answer.
“Blink, my successor and the one meant to protect my empire. If he and Armanthos are still alive. As long as I can find them, things will become a lot more easier” Damon said in a hopeful tone.
He felt like as long as he had those two by his side with the remnants of his dark army, they will be able to take back this world.
“How do we get to make contact with them?”Cecile asked.
“We don’t yet. Getting involved with these people can put your people at risk. Until the time comes. We remain calm and hide our cover,” Damon said with a heavy sigh, leaving people stunned.
Was Damon really willing to kill his subordinates whole prolonging all this chaos?
Is he really being considerate?
Many questions flooded their mind concerning the young man before them.
