Chapter 75: The Unexpected Alliance Part 3

" You seem so shocked about this, Mr. Duncan... " Agniz says and asks if he knows something about the person with that initial name.

" Yes, and it seems I'm also facing him now with my 'royal' family. " Duncan says, explaining to Agniz that he had some particular person who could match the initial name and asks her more about what she knows about this 'T.N.N' person.

" Why do you ask that? " Agniz wonders as she also begins to focus on the new topic that Duncan started.

As she begins to delve into the topic, Agniz and Mercy slowly hear what Duncan has to say, listening to every piece of information regarding the 'T.N.N' initial name.

" I see, so you suspected that 'guy' is the 'T.N.N' that we're talking about? " Agniz says.

" How did you know this? " Mercy asks while Duncan looked around, checking every presence outside his office as he knows well the full capabilities of the person with the initial.

" Of course, I know... "

" After all, I've been having some problems with that person lately... "

" Despite him never confronting me face-to-face and just using his possessed subordinates to give me and my family more problems. " Duncan explains as he explains what happened to him and Donovan at the school back then, right after Donovan entered it.

" You're serious, he can do that!? " Mercy asks as she was shocked to hear a mage or a sorcerer that could do the 'Possession Magic'.

" You know well that the Magic you just said is forbidden and not only that... "

" I thought the use of it was banned by the 'Wizard Council'. "

" Yes, it was definitely banned,... " Agniz interrupts.

" Banned for commoners to be exact," she says after listening to Duncan's story, agreeing with Duncan entirely regarding the situation.

As she recounts it, she then slowly realized who is this 'T.N.N' person is for she now gets a clue how could this person be the most influential person that controls the Warblade Guild from the darkness, before she purged his darkness from the whole guild.

" I see, so this is the guy that I will face in the future. " she says while telling both Duncan and Mercy about her encounter with 'T.N.N' through her phone back then.

" He called you? in person? " Duncan asks.

" Yes, but he didn't introduce himself, he only wants to congratulate me for becoming the new Guildmaster of the Warblade Guild. "

" But his compliments were only a cover to hide the real reason he wants to call me. " Agniz says to them, telling both of them what she senses during that very moment.

" When he called me, I can only feel a sheer soothing yet creepy voice, that purpose was only to mock my achievements from purging the filth inside the Warblade Guild. "

" At first, I thought that the person phoned me to admit defeat or beg for mercy and even tries to give me a challenge from his desperate attempt," she says and sighs as she explained that she was having a good day at the time after holding an event for the Guild.

At that very time, before she ends her day, she never thought that one of her unknown targets would be greeting her casually as if he had no problem confronting her one by one.

" But I was wrong... "

" His introduction to me was never to even those of what I thought about him earlier. "

" It was more of a mockery, mockery done by those who think that they are invincible to our presence. "

" Those who know that no matter how much we struggle to fight them, they will always win against us... " Agniz says as she remembers feeling weak right after talking with 'T.N.N' at that very time, despite her didn't meet him face-to-face.

" I understand... " Duncan replies as he tells Agniz that he already felt that kind of thing when meeting him in the past, that person is no longer can be counted as a human or even a mage.

His status, his power, his skills, and his intellect is unlike any other, for it seems he was destined to have it all from the very start, making us, those who were below him will feel intimidated by his very existence.

" That's so scary! " Mercy comments about this as knowing more about the person could make her insane for the things he possesses and achieved.

" Of course, after all, I never want to reveal everything about him to you all. "

" Since every royal house often hides his very existence and crimes in order to assure the people that there are no 'evil royals' like some conspiracy theorists often think. " Duncan explains fully the Royal Houses' act to suppress 'T.N.N's very influences, for they feared that his evil deeds could also affect their families' good name, hence why they will do many things to hide 'T.N.N's very record from the public.

" Yes, it is the most logical thing to do if you still want to keep your status... "

" By eliminating the filth parts of your kind and erasing their existence for good. " Agniz says as that is what she's doing right now.

" But, despite their best efforts to erase him. "

" It seems that this 'T.N.N' is having more freedom to do his deeds after his 'erasure' from the Royals. " Agniz adds as she now understands that rather than silencing 'T.N.N' for good, instead the Royals' unnoticing gave him more freedom to do what he does since his track record is erased, thus making him had no limit to do unwanted things in the future.

" Like these... " Agniz says as she also shows the Data that Duncan extracted regarding T.N.N, Data so encrypted that she only wants to share it with a trustworthy individual for this is a secret that she and her people will keep in the end, including with Duncan and Mercy whom she considered trustworthy for this will be her first tribute as their new ally.

" This some other info that you two would likely want to know. "

" So please look closely, both of you... " Agniz says as she begins to show them more as her first contribution to making their alliance.
