Lord Shadow

Milos opens his eyes and shake his head. He sighed in his heart

Eurus is Vice General and they usually serve beside the General of the Army. 

Wang Jian is the Great General, a title which is the same as the Supreme Commander of the Army for the World Government

The title of the Supreme Commander belongs to Raymond. He has a seal which enables him to override any order of any of the Quorum Council member in the military.

In other words, in World Government the supreme power of the military rested in Raymond. Of course, there is one other person that have such authority in the World Government and that is the President.

But in Pandemonium there is Three Great General who control three great armies. But even in these three armies, there is subdivision of it.

In other words, each of the great general could launch a military expedition as long as they could bear the price. 

It is one of the privileges of being the Great General, having the power to unilaterally start wars. 

Of course, there is some restriction on this and the Three Armies itself is not warmongering army 

Below him there is five generals who control five armies. Great General have his own private army but the five general under him follows the orders of the Great General

In some weird way, the Great General is like an enfeoffed King. Wang Jian controls the south. Athena controls the West and Freya is a Wandering Queen.

And they are merely Vice General under the General of these Great Generals

Milos still have a long way to go to rise to the top

Eurus is one of the Vice General of the five armies. And it is also Milos new job. He still did not get assigned to any of the five armies but it would not be long before the letter of assignment would reach him

Milos would not have been promoted this fast if not for the extraordinary thing that is happening in the world right now

There are many vacancies in the army right now. many were injured during the war between Earth Prime and the Seresian demon. 

Some also die in the war. 

Fortunately, it is not because of the death of a vice general that he is appointed to the position. It is because of his contribution in saving one of the cities of Pandemonium during the war that the higher ups felt that he should be rewarded to raise the morale.

But because of the reconstruction after the war, he is still not yet assigned. He is given a few days off to prepare himself.

So, today, he wanted to meet old friends, talk about old memoires, maybe brag about their military exploits and just reminiscing on all of these old memories.

Of course, he did not expect that someone is selling information in the tavern. 

Some of the information that he got from the object is information that he already knows. But there is some information in there that belong to the category of things he doesn’t know

He pours down the last few drops of the wine into his cup and drink it all in one shot. Then he got up and slap Eurus back.

‘Eurus, let’s go’ Eurus nodded. There is still some wine left in the bottle but he did not care about it that much as they walk outside the private room.

The tavern seems even more crowded as they could see more people is here. 

Some of them are drinking merrily, some of them is trading information on the corner. Milos recognized some of them.

They are the members of the Mercenary Association and there is even some of the Rats. The Rats is another information gathering organization.

Milos thinks of the reports he read a few days ago and he could not help but think that the moment he went to work tomorrow; things would be very chaotic. 

Milos position in the army is quite special. Even though he himself was said to have gain the favor of the Trickster, nobody doubts his loyalty

That is because the Trickster suggested many people and out of the many people he suggested, one could see that Loki suggested people based on abilities

It almost looks like Loki could see the future. All the people that was commended by the Trickster all had gone on to make great contribution to the safety of Pandemonium.

Milos special position in the army, a special position that some people did not even knows make Milos have certain access to certain information

He got a heads up from one of the people in the Shadow Guards that something big was happening right after the Multiversal Convergence happens. 

Five days ago, as the army was still in rescue and safe operations, in one of the safe houses of the Protection Program of the Shadow Guards, someone was killed

And that person, whoever she or he is, this person must be important enough for the Trickster to kill

This alone made Milos understood the severity of this matter. And how important this matter must be for the Trickster.

Milos knows that the position of the other world power is to hunt and capture Loki and brought him top trial upon the World Security Council

He would be tried and punished. But that is the position of the other world powers. It is not the position of Pandemonium.

The ruler of Pandemonium had declared to the world that he would shield Loki. This action of Death Monarch gains universal condemnation…but that is all normal people could do.

Condemn. It is not like it harms Pandemonium or Death Monarch. 

It is not like the whole world power would risk having a war with Pandemonium. Loki position and Loki safety then is something that is guaranteed in Pandemonium.

But that did not mean the people inside Pandemonium have to be happy about it.

Of course, some people do not understand why Loki did not return to Pandemonium even after being given such an amnesty card by Death Monarch

But Milos could understand Loki intention. 

However, what he doesn’t understand is why, amidst the threat that he would surely encounter in pandemonium, eh still after the Multiversal Convergence just ended, return back to Pandemonium to kill someone 

And right after that, there is report that he got two days ago, that Loki had joined the Crime Alliance. 

And suddenly, word on the street was some sources of information in the world was cut off all of a sudden. 

Milos had quite a good idea who were killed and who the leader of the Shadow Guards is trying to protect.

When he put together some news he heard six years ago and combined with the facts of today, he couldn’t help but think of one person in the criminal underworld that has been missing.

If it is as he though, then that explains certain things about Shadow Guards source of information that always seems to be one step ahead of the other world power.

He couldn’t help but think that these past few days is simply days for dark clouds to gather, for winds to congregate, all to create the biggest storm this world has ever seen

He shakes his head and reminded himself

‘Today, let’s forget about all of these secrets and conspiracies and enjoy a few days off without these secret bearing won on me’ he thought to himself. 

He thought of Monika who said to him that he needs to knows to relax and he is going to take her advice

Milos who was about to go to those people in the corner change his intention and decided to let them off for today

He then looks down from the balcony, looking at the first floor.

He could see that some people that enters the taverns look at the quest holographic board on the center of the tavern first floor and some are making out in the dark places before being scolded by the tavern keeper. 

One could only see such situation in Pandemonium, Milos thought to himself. 

The reason he thinks like this is because Pandemonium is the least affected world power during the Multiversal Convergence. 

Death Monarch at that time had attacked from afar and destroy many powerful threats to Pandemonium which makes the casualty of people in Pandemonium is not as high.

He then walks down to the floor and pay for the drinks and snacks on the counter. The counter had no one manning it. Milos just need to swipe his card onto the counter and the amount of money that he had used would be deducted

They both then went out from the tavern. Just as they went out of the tavern suddenly the communication device that is in his pocket seems to vibrate. 

Milos immediately tenses up.

Eurus communication device also vibrates in his pocket. They both look at each other and they probably thinking the same thing

Something big must have happened.
