《Armipotent 》Chapter 526: Farewell Present - The Betrayal
Advertisement
Roan listened to the report his man conveyed toward him, "A battalion of knights from the Malone Family is here? Are you sure with the report?"
"Yes, Sir Roan. They are still far from the town, but their presence here is quite concerning to me. Should we report this to the Royal Family? From the look of it, the legion seems to be waiting for more knights. I suspect they will attack the town. We should use this chance to ask for reinforcement from the Royal Family," The man reported in a worried voice.
"Attack the town? But why? If the Royal Family is hunting them down, they should stay low instead of attacking the town, especially Biaska Town…" Roan was confused with the Malone Family's move.
The town of the hunter, that was how people called Biaska Town. The town held no important resources aside from the fact that they were bordered by the Gigante Forest. There was no noble family that ruled the town as well. It was a neutral town, so why would the Revolution Army waste their manpower to attack Biaska Town? That made no sense to him.
"There's no need. The Royal Family is focusing their force on the fight against the Revolution Army that took over Aram City, they will not help us even if we ask them for reinforcement," Roan shook his head. He did not want the Royal Family to get involved with this as well, "You said they are the knights of the Malone Family, right? Did you find Derekh Malone with them?"
If it was just a normal Legion Knight, Roan and Tristan were enough to take care of the legion of knights of the Malone Family. However, if Derekh Malone and Duran Ambrose were with them, the town had no hope to win against them.

"I don't know, Sir. I don't dare to linger around too long, afraid of being discovered by them," The man shook his head. It was a legion of knights, not just a swarm of unintelligent beasts.
"Then you should find it out. If Derekh Malone is within the legion, we need to evacuate from the town. However, if Derekh Malone is not with them, I think we can face them and I am confident that we will win," Roan smiled at his subordinate. He was not boasting when he said that and the subordinate was aware that he was serving an Epic Rank.
"Alright, Sir Roan. We will investigate the legion," The man bowed his head before he excused himself.
After the man left, Tristan then entered and Carl entered the room, "Did you call us?" Tristan asked Roan as he sat across from Roan and Carl sat next to Tristan.
Roan nodded and informed his two friends what his man just reported to him. A deep frown formed on Tristan's forehead after he heard the report, "The legion of the Malone Family? Weird, this is weird. Why would they come to Biaska Town? Or do they just take some rest before they continue toward Aram City?"
The news that Aram City was taken by the Revolution Army was quickly spread to the whole kingdom. No one did not know about that as it was the biggest news after the demon invasion for sure.
"No, they have been there for five hours. That's too long for a rest, and I do think they want to attack the town or maybe recruit the hunters into their armies," Roan voiced his thoughts as to why the Malone Family tried to attack the town.
"But why Biaska Town? We don't even have a thousand hunters here, the rest are people who could not fight. Attacking the city is more logical, they have more people and resources, why would they choose to attack the poor and weak town?" Carl was the one who questioned that. The man could not understand the reason behind their movement. It was illogical for him for the Revolution Army to split their force only to capture the poor town while the city near Aram City remained untouched.

"I agree with Carl, they must be looking for something from the town… Wait, don't tell me they are looking for Tang and Ashley?" Tristan could not help but link the event with Tang Shaoyang. They had heard that Tang Shaoyang was running away from the Malone Family and the Ambrose Family.
Tang Shaoyang also told them that he was the one who told Prince Kaiden about the Revolution Army's existence. Forcing the Revolution Army to execute their plan prematurely. It was a good move since they needed time to gather their force.
"But only us know that Tang and Ashley… Wait, are you suspecting Jacob?" Roan suddenly connected the puzzle and realized what his friend was trying to say, "There's no way Jacob would betray us, Tristan!? Are you crazy?"
"Yeah, we have been living together for years and we have fought together for years as well. There's no way Jacob sold us to the Revolution Army!?" Carl could not believe that his friend was suspecting Jacob as well. He was angrier compared to when Tang Shaoyang suspected Jacob.
"We will know when we ask Jacob," Tristan did not listen to his friends as he stormed out of the room. Carl and Roan exchanged glances but they decided to follow Tristan.
Tristan was heading toward Jacob's house. The three old men were standing in front of the door, "Jacob! Are you home? Jacob?" Tristan knocked on the door three times. The other two also started calling their friend but to no avail. They received no answer from their friend. Suspicious of the situation, Tristan barged into the house, "Jacob!? Where are you?" He yelled out but it was his voice's echo that he could hear.
Carl and Roan also felt uneasy when they did not receive a response from their friend. Tristan went upstairs to Jacob's bedroom. Carl and Roan followed. When they entered Jacob's room, they were shocked to see two corpses lying down on the bed. Tristan came over and checked the two corpses only to find out that these two people were the people he tasked to watch Jacob's movement.
"The blood has dried up, they were killed around four to five hours ago, around the time when your man found about the legion of the Malone Family," Tristan looked toward Roan.
"Guys, there's something on the wall," Carl called the two and saw a message left behind by their friend. The message was written with blood.
—This is my farewell present, my friends. There will be more later

The Little Things...
Set in the fictional universe of Runeterra (League of Legends™), the story follows four stout spirits known amidst circles of sorcerers and sages as Yordles on their journey across the vast and fantastical world they inhabit. From the treacherous waves outside Bilgewater to the parched deserts of Shurima and the peaks of Mount Targon. The party at first seeks monetary gain in the acquisition of noteworthy artifacts desired by their employer and fellow explorer, but soon finds that there is more to be gained in the relationship forged along the way and the experiences found within them. This series is more a conglomerate of short stories than a fully fledged novel with every two or three chapters being confined to its own miniaturized arc before another one starts.
