Chapter 1538: Plots

When he saw the dubious look on Emery's eyes, Frostmind knew what he was thinking and quickly said, "You don't have to worry about my identity. I have a different name in the Wolf Guild. I'm known as Gerard there, an outstanding B-grade member of the Guild." The rebel announced proudly.

Although Emery was still somewhat doubtful, he had to admit Frostmind's words made sense. The man was undoubtedly a skilled Crescent Moon magus, one of the most formidable he had fought on this planet so far.

Not only that, he indeed had room for another magus within his pack and this would increase his chance of winning the Royal Hunt.

Unfortunately for the man, Emery would not accept such a request easily. Not without knowing the agenda of his actions.

Staring straight into the man's eyes, Emery spoke in a calm tone. "Tell me your reason and don't leave anything out."

Frostmind looked a little hesitant at first, which rang the alarm in Emery's mind. But then, he explained what had happened since their separation. 

It turned out the situation outside has become chaotic since the capture and announcement of the execution of Tidus the Chain Breaker. Many followers from all over the planet arrived in Silvermane city, tens of thousands of them, some even joined the Royal Hunt in an attempt to rescue the man and show their resolve.

The man revealed the rebels already had a few teams made up entirely of Magus realm warriors to participate in the event. He could certainly join one of those groups, but the man said he'd rather put his bet on Emery.

"Team up will definitely put us in the Wolf category. Only then will we be able to truly respond when a situation arises"

The truth was that, since Emery's memory of his father had returned, he found it even harder to resist such a request. He couldn't help but think how such a great man like Tidus being executed was a great loss.

After a moment of silence, Emery shook his head, "As much as I empathize with your cause, I can't help you. I can't afford to involve myself in this matter."

The reason Emery turned down the offer was because he wasn't sure if the Alpha King was behind all of this. What's more, he already had enough trouble on his mind, which couldn't allow him to get involved in such a matter. Therefore, his answer was a solid no.

However, Frostmind didn't seem to have finished as he said, "Please, the truth is this is not just about the rebels anymore."

Apparently, it wasn't just Tidus who was scheduled to be executed. On the list of those executed, there were also highly valued figures. Specifically, those related to the two major families, Karst and Locarios.

"I have heard that the forces of the two families have arrived on this planet and are plotting something as well." Looking into Emery's eyes, the man said, "We might really have a chance to save the leader."

Emery was startled when he heard that. If what Frostmind said was true, it most likely meant the Alpha King had decided to work together with the third major family, the Corvin and this entire situation was a plot to clean up their rivals.

With that possibility in mind, Emery would need to reassess the situation so as not to be caught in the middle of this mess.

"I will need to think about this first. Come look for me tomorrow, I will give you my decision then."

Even though Emery had informed him of his current decision, Frostmind decided not to leave. He asked to be allowed to stay as a guest in the residence.

"The sooner I know your answer the better," that was his reason.

As this matter had the potential to greatly affect the situation, Emery decided to seek the opinions of others before making a decision. He went to the old chiefs, Beowulf, and Annara. To let them clearly understand the situation, he decided to tell them the truth about the Alpha King's condition.

The old chief looked somewhat troubled after Emery finished his explanation. The man explained that he had been following Silvermane's unity campaign for so long he did not believe King Alpha would allow such a thing to happen.

On the other hand, Annara seemed to have a different opinion. She believed anyone could do anything when they were pushed into a corner.

Emery didn't like the situation one bit. He couldn't just accept the information received from the rebel; he needed to confirm it himself.

Tatyana was willing to talk to her contacts and co-workers at the Red Pagoda to look for information. Meanwhile, Annara would go find her Ouroboros informant to see if they had anything on the matter.

As for the other people, who didn't have any connections, they decided to check the situation on the streets of Silvermane City and spy on the situation of the two major faction forces that came to the city.

Emery did not remain silent either. He subtly inquired about such matters with the Apex faction's experts, talking to a few apothecary apprentices. This led him to discover that the two factions, Karst and Locarious, had not been buying potions for a while, which was quite weird considering the Apex was their main supplier.

Later that day, everyone reconvened in the residence and shared what they had gathered. Everyone had serious expressions on their faces in the end, as the information they brought seemed to corroborate Frostmind's story.

Even though it wasn't one hundred percent certain, there was a high probability that something would happen in the Royal Hunt.

The situation somehow reminded Emery of the Magus Academy tournament, which made him anxious enough to stop caring about the Alpha King's wishes and take a decision for the sake of his pack.

"We're not joining the Royal Hunt and we should leave right away. Since there seems to be an increased number of guards at the portal and hangar now, we should do it tonight."

Emery was ready to tell Frostmind of his decision, but unfortunately, before he could do so, while everyone was packing, a group of people came barging into the residence. It was the Silvermane palace guards, led by a familiar figure, the Grand Magus Warwick.

He quickly approached Emery and looking at the situation, he asked,

"Are you leaving somewhere?"
