The supreme sovereign system

After saying this, Cecil felt pressure on her neck.

"Agh!"

The eyes of Alice lit up in the darkness.

"Please… please wait… my overlord…" Said Cecil.

"What makes you said that?" Asked Alice with a cold voice.

"I…"

"ANSWER!"

Cecil felt that she had to be really careful on her words or her neck could snap at any moment.

"I was one of the favorites… of his majesty…before the prince usurped the throne…"

"I... know… all the powers in Greycastle… there is no one like you… nor house… nor power…" 

"So you think that I am not from Greycastle?"

Cecil nodded.

"Then, what do you plan to do?" Asked Alice.

"Please… don't misunderstand… my overlord…"

"I… know… that you came here… to make troubles for his highness…"

Cecil smiled.

"I can help you… with that…"

"Why?" Asked Alice.

"Because… I hate his highness… he is not worth… serving…" Said Cecil.

"How can I trust you?"

"I… can… give you…information…" Said Cecil.

"What kind of information?"

"A… powerful ally… of his highness has come… to Levier…"

"So?"

"If they… suddenly… disappear… his highness… would lose… power in the capital…"

"They must the house Lei was talking about" Though Alice.

Alice looked at Cecil for some seconds before letting her go.

"I will trust you, for now"

"But if you try anything funny…"

"I understand" Said Cecil.

"Good" Said Alice.

Of course, Alice didn't trust her in the slightest, however, there was no choice, even if Alice kill Cecil, there was no way that people wouldn't notice, and this could alert the other powerhouses and the infiltration plan would be in danger.

"And Demeter's soul would be in danger too" 

So she had no choice but to trust Cecil.

"In the worst case scenario, we will have to kill all the Vlads and Hammons members and run" Though Alice.

Cecil stood up and took a deep breath.

"I won't ask about my overlord plans; I just have a selfish request"

"What is it?" Asked Alice

"There is a certain house in the capital… no, a certain family to be precise… they are one of the four families who protect the royal crown"

Cecil clenched her fist in rage.

"The dogs that betrayed his majesty!"

"The Gold family!" Said Cecil.

"Like the four dragon families in Leitol" Though Alice.

"Why don't you take care of them yourself, empress of swords?" Asked Alice.

"I am ashamed to said that they are a bit… peculiar, their fighting style doesn't allow me to kill them easily, specially the head of the family"

"What makes them peculiar?"

"They are the only family that successfully managed to have beastamers, in fact, their family specializes in taming"

"And the head of the family, Evangeline, she is special, It's hard to describe in words, when you see her, you will understand" Said Cecil.

Cecil looked at Alice who seemed in deep though.

"Beastamer…" Though Alice.

Back in Leitol, a beastamer attacked Wasteland Valley, Alfonso had his thoughts back them, he knew that Gresycastle had something to do with that.

"So he was from that house…" 

"You want me to kill Evangeline?" Asked Alice.

"No, I want you to kill her husband and son…"

"Evangeline is mine" Said Cecil.

Alice looked at Cecil for some seconds before nodding.

"Deal"

"I thank my overlord"

"Let's get going, we can't be too late" Said Alice.

"Yes, my overlord"

"By the way"

"Yes?"

"When is this family going to come?"

Cecil smiled a bit.

"They are already here"

Alice nodded.

"What is this families name?" 

Cecil took a deep breath.

"The Leister family"

.......................................

Back in the duel arena, Dino was currently facing his first opponent.

"Seriously kid, if you don't want yourself get killed, surrender already" Said his opponent.

"Old man, don't talk much, if I die by your hands, I will be reborn as the ass of a donkey" Said Dino.

"What…"

"HAHAHAHA" The audience exploded in laugh.

"You… ha~" The opponent of Dino sighed in exhaustion.

There was no way he could win this. If he did win against Dino, it would be just an adult bullying a small kid, and, if he loses to Dino, he wouldn't be able to show his face in Levier.

It was a loss to loss situation.

"Damn it" Though the man.

The man sighed and took out his sword.

"Just go down without much resistance, ok?" 

The man walked towards Dino.

He pointed his blade towards him and, with a fast motion, he swung his sword towards Dino!

"…" Dino didn't flinch.

He grabbed the incoming sword with two fingers and…

*Clink*

With a single movement…

He broke the sword in two!

"What the hell…" Said the man.

"Sorry man"

Dino walked towards the astonished man and punched him in the stomach.

"Ugh!"

The man fainted.

Silence, in the arena, there was only silence.

"Yo" Dino turned to the referee who was out of the arena.

"Y-Y-Yes?" 

"So, I won right?"

"Yes"

"Where is my next opponent?"

"Well… they haven't finished their match yet so…"

"Tsk~ boring~"

Dino walked out of the arena and searched for the big sisters who were still waiting for their matches.

There, the woman that made the bet with Dino smiled wryly looking at Dino's smile.

"So… should we go now or do we wait until the finals?" Asked Dino.

"Little kid, even if we go to my house now, you won't be able to get here in time" Said the woman.

"Oh right! Damn, I forgot about that"

"Little guy, I wouldn't be so happy if I were you, that guy? He was just a small fry, small families try their luck bringing those nobodies, went you get to the quarter-finals, then you will meet the true powerhouses"

"Mmm… I suppose that you are one of those powerhouses, big sister?"

"Yes, I come from the Lenova Town, little guy"

"To be more specific I come from to represent one family in particular"

"You seem to be very confident, big sister"

"Well, this tournament is just a handy job"

Dino looked at the woman in front of him, although he didn't notice at first…

"She has soul power…"  Though Dino.

"The family that hired you…?"

The woman made an exhausting sigh.

"The Leister family"
