Chapter 80 The Secret Grand Order Moves

Eros activated Mirage steps and sped out of the mansion.

There was also another reason why Eros did not leave with Lady Frostbite. But it was one he rather keep to himself.

He suspected that there was a spy in his house or rather, in his estate.

It was better for who so ever it was to think that he was still in the manor than out of it.

He did not want anything to happen to his home. Denying Lady frostbites's request in public was just one way of him protecting his family and his people.

Eros and Dan left The Mansion deep n the night with no one aware of their absence.

...

At around the same time, a particular person entered into a dark castle. The only source of light being the moonlight that seeped in through the windows of the long corridor.

She wore dark fitted clothing.

In one of her hands was a cross bow. However, this cross bow was unlike the usual.

For one, it was at least four times bigger than the usual cross bow. It was machinated like a machine gun and even though it was dark enough, it still managed to reflect the bit of light that touched it.

She walked through the dark castle walls. Her high boots kissing the tiled castle floors loudly.

If Eros was here, he would instantly recognize the curve of her body. However, she had a white mask with bloody claw marks.

As she walked through the castle, a maid in dark robes approached her, "the master is in the study. He has been waiting for you." The maid bowed and seemingly disappeared as soon as she had passed along her message.

She turned in a particular direction, and walked towards a pair of tall doors. They had the carvings of many ancient beasts at war on them, and as she approached the doors, all the eyes of the beasts carved on the doors seemingly turned and focused on her.

She stopped at the door. "Your master is expecting me!" she whispered lowly.

Eyes of the beasts left her and a loud unbuckling noise was heard. The Doors opened up and she entered.

This room was even darker than the Corridor.

The doors closed behind her in an eerie metallic sound.

The entire room was dark and quiet. After a few seconds, an aged tired voice could be heard.

"You bring word for me, shadow walker!"

Immediately, she went on her knees, "yes My lord. It is about the Crood family. The plan has been compromised. The Crood boy fell at the hands of Tate!"

"Huh!?" The voice in the dark was surprised by this. However, it suddenly chuckled, "interesting! very interesting!! So what are you going to do about this. You know that for you to achieve your dreams, you need that item, right?"

She nodded, "yes! I know. I had sent a hundred faces to keep up the chaos in the Tate Estate, but he also failed miserable. However, we can still check the other regions. After all, you said so yourself!"

The aged voice chuckled a bit, "of course, I did not lie Viscount. What we seek lies at the hands of one of the Barons under Viscount Tobi! My eyes all seeing Eyes of shredded hearts does not lie!"

As he spoke, two pairs of red glowing eyes shone lowly from the dark.

the moment the eyes appeared, the Viscount felt as if her heart was a see through glass. This made sweat run down her back. And she instinctively wanted to turn and run. However, she did not.

This was not the first time she was experiencing those eyes, but every time, she still felt like a little mouse in front of a Lion.

Just as soon as they had appeared, they had also disappeared.

This made her breathing heavy and she could feel cold sweat run down her back.

the voice chuckled again, "if the subtle method does not work, you may use force to get the item, but know this, if you draw the attention of the king to the item, I will not help you against his wrath."

She nodded as she stood to her feet. However, just before she left, she paused.

"Is there something else you want Viscount!?" The aged tired voice asked.

She shook her head slightly, "Its nothing my lord. Its just..." she paused again.

"Go on!" the voice encouraged.

"Its the Tate."

"What about him?"

"I don't know. There is something weird about him. The initial report said that he was not a cultivator, and then i found out that it was a lie. However, I thought his cultivation was low. But just recently, he was able to nearly catch me!"

"Hmmm!" Those words took the Voice by surprise, "are you sure about this?"

She nodded.

"If that is the case, I can take over!" Another voice was suddenly heard as a person appeared in the dark. This person also wore a mask, but his was that of a clown.

the Viscount was obviously displeased by seeing this person, "stay away Clown! I can handle this one!"

"Clown! let your sister finish her assignment. She is after all still a member of this Grand Order." The voice advised.

Clown turned towards the darkness and bowed, "Not if she fails this mission. But if it is your wish my lord, I will oblige!"

The Viscount saw this and then she bowed, turned and left.

As she did, Clown watched her walk away, a glinting light in his eyes.

...

meanwhile, Eros and Dan had just reached the Frostbite estate.

This place was nothing like the Tate Estate.

For one, even though it was late at night, the people here seemed to be filled with life.

There were food stalls about the place, and one could actually see men and women laughing as they walked on the street.

In other words, this was not only a peaceful place, it was bubbling with life.

Even though it was winter, the streets were bright with life and soul lanterns were at the sides of houses, brightening the streets.

It was nothing like the lifeless Tate estate that was poor and filled with broken houses on either sides.

Dan came down Eros's back. His white hair was rough from the wind that had gone through it.

This was the first time For Dan that he had left the Tate Estate since he was adopted by Eros.

Before he became a tate, he was in a village and that place was far poorer than the current Esate.

This for him was the first time he was seeing a place so bright at night.

Obviously, he also had stars in his eyes, and for a split second there, he had forgotten the reason they were here. He wanted to charge into the food stalls and tried their meals.

It was so surprising to know that this place was actually a neighboring estate and it was thriving to such an extent while theirs was in the state that it was.

However, before he said anything, Eros patted his head, "don't worry son, soon, the Tate estate will be like the sun, and places like this would only be like stars about it."

Dan herd his grand father's words and nodded to them.

He did not know why, but he trusted his granddad's words.

Just then, Someone with a group of frozen horses sped through the streets.

Many people were caught unaware and the horses nearly cleared them off the road. In fact, some goods that were too close to the road were destroyed by the charging horses.

Dan and Eros looked at the identity of the person on the horse in front. It was none other than Lady frostbite.

She had left before them, but because of Eros's technique, they had arrived at around the same time.

"Climb up! we have to go." Eros ordered and Dan did as he was told. "We will have to hurry! she seems to be going to the Baron's manor.

immediately, Eros went after her.

A while later, Lady Frostbite stopped before the Baron's manor.

This manor as one would expect was nothing like the Manor at the Tate Estate.

For one, the walls were high, and the gates were mighty and made of special Iron. It was nothing like the wooden gate that the Manor of the Tate Estate had.

These gates even had the beautiful Carvings of two Horses that seemed to be breathing air of ice out their mouths.

Lady Frostbite stopped at the gate, "I am Lady Angela Frostbite. Baron of this Estate. You will open my goddamn doors or I will have your heads!!!"

her voice went out in all directions.

At first, there was no reaction. However, slowly, the doors opened up and she rode into them.

As she did, Eros noticed that Soldiers appeared from all around the place and surrounded the Manor entrance, covering a route of escape...
