Caspian shook his head at Charles. “Wonderful! That’s really funny!”

Charles frowned and asked, “What’s so funny?”

Caspian sighed and answered, “I always thought that you were a smart man. I never knew that you’d be

so stupid to not even realize that you’re about to die.”

Charles smiled back at him. “Enough nonsense, Caspian! Do you really think I’ll believe you?”

The next moment, Charles suddenly felt immense pain coming from his abdomen.

He looked down to find a dagger pierced through his body.

It was from none other than Gilbert.

“Mr. Shane? Why?” asked the dumbfounded Charles.

He had risked his life to retrieve the Eldorian Scroll fragment for Gilbert, only to be backstabbed in the

very next moment.

“Heh. Caspian’s right, you know. You’re really stupid.

“The Eldorian Scroll is a sacred treasure that countless men have dreamed of acquiring. And now that I h

ave it, I can even become king!

“So, do you really think I’ll be handing the scroll fragment back to Shadow Gate? Of course not, and to d

o that, I’ll have to silence you,” explained Gilbert.

Charles realized that Gilbert had been keeping him around for the same purpose as Fabian, to serve as

mere fodder.

He also realized that Fabian was right about Gilbert only keeping them around like pets to serve him.

Now that he no longer had any value to Gilbert, Gilbert no longer had any reason to keep him around.

Even Fabian had wanted to acquire the Eldorian Scroll fragment for his own ambitions.

it was only natural that Gilbert had plans of his own with the scroll fragment.

He would seek to unlock the scroll fragment’s secrets and improve himself to the point of even beyond su

preme grandmasters before challenging Elijah for his throne as the leader of Shadow Gate.

Charles never expected to be killed by Gilbert of all people. “You’re such an evil man, Mr. Shane…”

“It’s your own fault for being so stupid,” replied Gilbert as he pulled out the dagger.

Blood gushed out of Charles‘ body like a fountain as he desperately tried to cover up his wounds.

His face was filled with despair and regret for believing in Gilbert.

Everything Charles had done was for naught.

Caspian was right on the mark that he was stupid.

Both Charles and Fabian had been mere tools to Gilbert.

But Charles‘ realization arrived too late.

He soon collapsed to the ground and would never move again.

Caspian shook his head at the sight of Charles joining–Fabian in death.

The two of them would have met their end sooner or later either way.

Caspian sighed and asked, “Can’t believe you’d even kill your own allies. Is it really worth it to betray the

m just to get your hands on the Eldorian Scroll fragment?”

“Save your breath, Caspian. Everyone in Shadow Gate is selfish. We’re evil folks who gathered together

to achieve our own goals. Who knows if Mr. Burton himself would simply decide to kill us off if he feels lik

e it so that we won’t go against him?

“The weak should fear the strong, and only the strong get to decide who lives!” explained Gilbert.

Seeing as he was able to rise through the ranks and become the tenth elder, he had long seen

the truth.

Shadow Gate was a gathering of very cruel individuals.

Those who had survived long enough to be given titles were ruthless and selfish to begin with.

They had to become stronger than anyone else so that they no longer had to serve someone else.

Gilbert stared at Caspian and declared, “Once I’ve improved myself after unlocking the Eldorian Scroll fra

gment’s secrets, I’ll be back to kill you first!”

Both of them held a grudge against each other. Gilbert had endured being humiliated by Caspian again a

nd again.

Caspian looked at Gilbert and taunted him, “Don’t tell me you really think that acquiring the Eldorian Scro

ll fragment would be so easy?”

“What do you mean, Caspian?”

Gilbert’s excitement died down as he realized that something was wrong.

Caspian smiled. “Have a look for yourself.”

Gilbert hurriedly opened the Eldorian Scroll fragment and was dumbfounded when he saw its.

contents.

There was only a single word written on the scroll, and it read “useless“.

Gilbert coughed out a mouthful of blood from shock.

“Caspian, you bastard! You tricked me again!” scolded Gilbert.

Caspian remained calm the entire time as he had already anticipated Fabian’s actions from the

start.

The moment Fabian lunged at him to snatch the scroll, Caspian had already switched it out with a fake o

ne.

“I’ll tear you apart with my own hands, Caspian!” declared Gilbert.

He was enraged after being tricked by Caspian.

However, his anger turned into confusion as he realized Caspian remained calm and collected.

He didn’t dare to act rashly just yet.

Suddenly, the entire tomb began to shake with a loud rumble.

“This is bad! It’s going to collapse!” shouted Xandros.

The tomb was rigged to collapse on itself after the coffin was opened.

The entire tomb began to collapse with stones falling off what used to be the ceiling.

“Run! Get away from here!”

“Get out of here now! Or it’s going to be too late!”

Everyone started screaming as they ran for their lives.

Horace was the first to react to the situation.

He rounded up the remaining people of the TMAA and brought them out of the tomb.

They no longer had any reason to stay now that the head

elder of the TMAA was dead, and they only had four hundred of them left.

Gilbert gritted his teeth and ordered his men to leave, “Get out of here!”

He concluded that the mission to retrieve the Eldorian Scroll fragment had failed after Caspian had thwar

ted their plans again and again.

Gilbert began his mission with confidence that he would return victorious.

He never would’ve guessed that he would end up going back with nothing to show other than losing a m C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Caspian watched everyone escape the tomb with intrigue.

He knew that Gilbert would eventually come back to cause more trouble for him after he returned to safety

He wasn’t worried, however, as he had already assigned John to be stationed outside Mount Evercloud w

It would be difficult for Gilbert and his men to make it out of here alive.

Caspian then looked at Jyn, who was still standing right beside him. “Why aren’t you leaving?”

Jyn smiled and replied, “I’m waiting for you.

Her reply was simple, but it caused a lot of complications for Caspian.

“Ms. Morrison, we should get going!

“We’re gonna get buried here if we stay any longer!” shouted Ginger.

Ginger didn’t want to die just like this.

The falling rocks gradually turned into bigger boulders.

Jyn, however, still had no intention of leaving.

The scene very much resembled the end of the world.

Xandros sighed and explained, “We have to go! This place isn’t safe!”

He couldn’t help but feel sad seeing that the tomb of his ancestors was about to be destroyed.

Meanwhile, the entirety of Mount Evercloud was shaking violently.

John remained at his post, guarding the tomb’s entrance and waiting for Caspian to appear.

“Prepare to capture all of the people from Shadow Gate and the TMAA!” ordered John.

“Yes, sir!”

The ten thousand soldiers brought out their weapons and aimed right at the tomb’s entrance.
