Chapter 676: War in Subterranean World: Past

Somewhere in the three nations...

Souta was inside a dark room with a book in his hand. His other hand was on his chin as he kept reading the contents of the book with his eyes.

The ground was vibrating heavily and energy would spike up every other second but he ignored it all. Although he looked like he was fine, it was only because of the regeneration ability of the queen parasite.

After a few minutes, he closed the book in his hand and looked outside.

"According to my arrangement, we had a sixty percent chance of winning this war. Every executive of the Red Matter Association is busy fighting the Grain Leaders. There\'s no one that can give them a concrete plan anymore. Plus, I\'ve stained the leader of rebels so they are out of sight. They will fall sooner or later."

With all the casualties that the Third Set received in the previous battle, the chances of winning this war were just thirty percent. But because of his secret arrangement, the chances grew higher. In fact, the tide of war was slowly shifting to their favor.

Starting from the Grain Leaders of Fourth Set... To slaying the leader of rebels. Before fighting Dromas, Souta switched with his [Shadow Ball] and prevented the ambush of the Red Matter.

He saved the Seventh Grain Virgin Leader and Tenth Grain Wise Leader by informing them that there were enemies waiting in the dark. How could he detect them? It was simple since they had blood in their bodies.

That\'s why it took him one hour before he fought the rebel leader, Dromas. By looking at his enemies, Souta could see their power level due to him having [Galaxy Eyes]. He slowly organized the warriors to fight the enemies they had an advantage against.

One by one he directed different battlefields in the shadows leaving only a few battles such as Grain Leaders and the other high-rank warriors who were fighting the officers of Red Matter Association. The officers were just second to executives in terms of strength. So ordinary Squad Leaders, who had a power level of Two Shackles, wouldn\'t win in a head-on battle against them.

What he did was simply change the warriors who were going to fight those officers. Of course, there were times when warriors died because of his decision. He felt sorry for them but their deaths only solidified Souta\'s plan.

"In the next couple of minutes, the battle in the Kaetws Federation will be concluded. I could only hope that the warriors would win against their opponents. I simply set up a path for them to win so the thing that will decide the war is their strength."

\'Truly magnificent.\' Saya praised him.

Souta shook his head and said, "It\'s nothing. I could do it because of my abilities. If I don\'t have any of it, it will be hard to gain information and arrange the battlefield to our favor."

\'Other people will not think of that. What you did was great and the last arrangement is going to bloom, right?\' Saya said.

Knowing the exact position of the enemies within a certain range was far too useful in war. Since he knew the position of the enemies and the enemies hiding, he could easily prepare an ambush and eliminate them.

A lot of generals and commanders would be jealous of this ability if they knew it. Its potential in war was big as long as they perfectly utilized it. In a one-on-one battle, this ability wouldn\'t be able to help much but in war... It\'s absolute.

"Well, yeah..." Souta shrugged his shoulder. This was one of the reasons why he chose [Crimson Perception]. In the future, different wars will erupt so this ability will help him in commanding his army.

Back to the topic at hand, Souta turned his gaze at the table. Precisely, at the notebook on top of it. It was a diary of one of the executives of the Red Matter, Shiela.

Just like the previous place, this building was also an abandoned laboratory which Red Matter made in secret to research some things. It took him a lot of time to find this place.

He sent his doppelganger across the three nations just to find buildings like this one. The same as the laboratory where he found the Stone Monument in the Aekr Republic.

Souta approached the table and opened the diary. He finally knows the reason why Vandal was obsessed with the Red Matter Association.

It seems that the Chief Captain and Avron were childhood friends. Both of them were living in the slums and a woman named Layla took them. That woman became their adopted mother.

They didn\'t tell her about it but the two pickpocketed other people to make a living. They fought in the streets to gain their territory in the slums. It was a normal way of living for them.

Months had passed since then. The two decided to stop pickpocketing and follow Layla\'s footsteps. They wanted to build a bakery and live a normal life for the rest of their lives. They bought a small lot and were preparing to build their dream bakery.

But one day, the two offended a person from above. Vandal got in trouble with an individual with a great background. It was the start of their downfall. That individual wanted to demolish the slum and create a new district for rich people. As for the residents of the slum, that person didn\'t care at all. So Vandal was infuriated when he heard those words. He couldn\'t control his emotions so he fought them.

Avron arrived at the scene and one of the guards of the individual was beating Vandal to death. He fought his way and eventually freed his friend but the individual moved.

All resistance was useless. They got beaten and chained. Avron knew that they were going to die but at least he needed to let Vandal escape. Yet, they didn\'t have enough strength at all. It was futile. Even though they were extraordinary, they were still kids in the end. There\'s no way they could beat someone at that level.

The one that rescued them was Layla. They didn\'t expect the kind and gentle woman to be strong. Layla showed them her prowess as she defeated the guards left and right.

She rescued the two but the outstanding individual made a move. She was captured and the two couldn\'t even move from their hiding place in fear.

Layla was brutally murdered and raped in front of them and they couldn\'t do anything to stop it. On the next day, they found that the slums were demolished and the people living there were massacred. Men were brutally killed while women were raped to death. Even the king of the slums couldn\'t escape such fate.

Avron accepted this fact. They were not good people from the beginning and they were simply living by pickpocketing other people. So they were treated as garbage. The rich nobles didn\'t even care about their lives. For them, the people living in the slums were just animals that they could kill anytime.

For the first time in his life, he resolved himself and killed a person.

Souta closed the notebook. He didn\'t need to read the rest to know what happened next. From the contents of the diary, he learned that the person that they\'ve offended was a descendant of gods.

A person living in Olympus.

Well, he knew the attitude of those people. In Olympus, those people were living life peacefully. It was just like a normal city he could find anywhere in the world. Even if he observed them from afar, he wouldn\'t find anything wrong. People were chatting with happy faces and some were talking about business.

If he entered that place, some people would ignore him and some were going to treat him with great hospitality.

That\'s the case if he was a descendant of gods.

If he\'s not a descendant of gods, they wouldn\'t welcome him and they would even treat him as garbage. The difference in treatment was huge as they thought that other people weren\'t their equal except for those people chosen by gods themselves.

"Those people are quite funny..."

Souta closed his eyes as he reminisced the time when he was in Olympus as Athena\'s Hero. He sneaked in and killed some of the NPC he didn\'t like. Even at the time when the Titans caused chaos in Olympus, he even spared some time to kill some of the descendants of the gods.

"Such a good time..."

Unfortunately, he couldn\'t do that this time. If an opportunity comes then...

He smiled contently as this diary reminds him of the old times in the game. He shook his head and walked to the other room of the laboratory. He completed one of his goals so it was time to proceed to learn the truth of this subterranean world.

The Stone Monument... Yes, it was here.

"Oh... Saya, I\'ll leave it to you..."
