?"He wouldn't dare to do such things! This is Magus Alliance territory, he wouldn't!" Zeus exclaimed, attempting to convince the others that Emery wouldn't unleash the Virulent disease.

Emery remained calm and retorted, "Do you really want to risk that just for old data?" He spoke the words casually while toying with the green liquid potion, causing every magus who laid eyes on it to turn pale.

In the midst of his frustration, Kronos angrily slammed his hand onto the table, signaling Zeus to comply with Emery's demands and retrieve the data. Before leaving the room, Emery heightened the tension with a stern warning, "Don't think about tampering with it. I would know!"

The subsequent ten minutes felt like an eternity, with the room engulfed in an oppressive silence. No one dared to move or speak, gripped by the fear of the potentially devastating disease. Finally, Zeus reappeared, holding a small memory crystal in his hands.

"Hand it over," Emery demanded, his tone menacing. Zeus complied, relinquishing the crystal. Emery, with a composed demeanor, touched the crystal, enabling VIA to initiate her task.

[100% Data successfully restored]

Despite VIA's assurance that the data was complete and unaltered, Emery harbored lingering doubts. To dispel these uncertainties, he decided to grab Zeus' arm, unleashed a forceful spirit attack, delving deep into the magus's mind to uncover any hidden secrets regarding the events from 2000 years ago.

Witnessing Emery's actions, Kronos swiftly intervened, exclaiming, "You went too far!"

The grand magus jumped into the fray, utilizing his mastery of the law of time to accelerate his movements and manipulate the temporal flow in Emery's vicinity.

Contrary to Kronos' expectations, Emery was ready for the assault. With precision, he cast a massive gravitational spell, exerting enough force to break free from Kronos' temporal manipulation. This momentary escape granted Emery the opportunity for a decisive move--crushing the vial of poison into Zeus' arm.

CRAACKKK!!!

The grand hall fell into a momentary silence as the echoing sound of shattering glass reverberated through the room. Panic and disbelief flashed across Kronos' face and all the other magus as he witnessed the unexpected turn of events.

"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!" Kronos roared, his anger boiling over as he glared at Emery.

The known god of thunder, Zeus, writhed in agony as the corrosive effects of the poison seared through his arm. The pungent odor and greenish smoke emanating from the wound forced other magus to retreat hastily, including Kronos himself.

"YOU!!! I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!!!" Kronos bellowed, his voice laced with both pain and rage.

Emery, seemingly unfazed, calmly responded, "You have 5 minutes, burn this place and take the antidote... or else everyone dies!!"

With those chilling words lingering in the air, Emery deftly produced another bottle. In a calculated move, he consumed a pill from it, creating a brief moment of tension before tossing the bottle into the air. The magus in the room scrambled for the antidote, panic spreading like wildfire.

Amid the chaos, some magus rushed for the pill bottle, impeding those attempting to pursue Emery. Simultaneously, a few others, desperate to contain the impending catastrophe, set the grand hall ablaze. The once-commanding atmosphere had devolved into pandemonium.

As soon as Emery stepped out of the burning castle and realized there was no more temporal disturbance blocking his way, he swiftly activated his Khaos gate, disappearing from Saturn 5 in the blink of an eye.

Five minutes later, Kronos expressions contorted in rage, realized that the poison Emery threw was not the feared Virulent disease. Witnessing the inferno engulfing his once-majestic castle, Kronos screamed in unbridled rage, "THAT DAMN BASTARD!!!"

Using the power of Khaos, Emery swiftly returned to Earth, appearing on the volcanic mountain where Morgana was still engrossed in her training. Deciding not to disturb her, he ascended into the sky to find Klea waiting for him.

With a smile, she inquired, "Did you get it?" Emery nodded, returning the smile, and Klea remarked, "I really wish I could see their faces right now."

The duo then made their way back to the moon base, reaching the partially functional command center. They allowed VIA to access the screens, revealing the extensive data they had extracted from Kronos. freewebnove(l).com

"We have all 108 sites and logs dating back 1900 years, to when Kronos first assumed the role of caretaker,"

After hours of meticulous searching, however, they found no clues about the death of King Anu other than the mention of sickness. The king had been reported as being ill for decades, and his demise was recorded as due to natural causes.

Observing this, Klea remarked, "No wonder they easily gave up on the data... its their official bullshits reports!!"

Emery delved back into the memories of Zeus that he had probed. Despite the constraints of time, he successfully confirmed that Kronos had indeed orchestrated something that led to King Anu's demise. Unfortunately, Zeus remained oblivious to the specifics of those events.

Klea let out a deep sigh, expressing her disappointment. "Nothing then… I wonder if this data is worth making them even angrier." she pondered, a tinge of regret evident in her tone.

Emery offered reassurance, placing his arm comfortingly on her shoulder. "There's nothing to be concerned about. Even without doing this, they would still try to harm us."

Klea then hold upon the Blood Contract, and as she read it, she remarked, "At least we have this."

"Yes, so don't worry," Emery responded.

The truth was, Emery would not placed much faith in the Blood Contract's to provide substantial protection. He was certain that Kronos would still have other plans in motion to harm them. Fortunately, Emery had his own contingencies in place.

The following day, Emery utilize the Khaos gate, transporting himself the Khaos domain. Standing amid the ethereal landscape, he waited patiently until a specific waypoint was activated.

A silhouette descended gracefully toward him—an expression of fear gracing her features as she approached. She respectfully knelt before Emery and spoke, "No one suspects me."

"Good. You know what to do next," Emery affirmed.

Bowing her head in acknowledgment, she responded, "Yes, Master," before gracefully departing back into waypoints.

The female magus was none other than Hecate. Emery had dedicated weeks to a delicate process of 'persuasion,' skillfully employing both his mental prowess and his newfound Astral technique to gradually dismantle her formidable mental defenses.

The decision to personally accompany Hecate back to the Kronos base was a strategic maneuver, allowing him the necessary time to ensure the success of his intricate plan.

With Hecate, one of the top Kronos Magus, subtly under his influence, Emery not only could slowly unearth the secrets that Kronos was hiding but also fortify his defenses against any potential future plots from the powerful faction.
