574 Consider it a gift (part 1)

With the conversation coming to an end, Luciano ended the call and gave a report to Emperor Cinder. "The Inheritance has been successfully acquired."

"Not doubting Grandad's influence through the inheritance, but we have to put in extra measures to make sure nothing goes wrong." Prince Bryon suggested.

Pondering over this, Emperor Cinder turned his gaze back to Luciano. "You already have his trust, your tasks are to make sure nothing goes wrong and report any abnormalities that may arise."

"Yes, Your Highness." Luciano bowed before making his way to a warp array that sent him to the North.

Having been in the mountain's peak for 3 weeks receiving training from his dad, Blake was glad to hear that a mission had arrived.

Although it was hard to admit, Blake needed to step out and touch grass!

"A mission arrived from the head of the Nystrom family from the Ironwood city." Dorian began explaining the details of the mission immediately after Blake appeared at the League's base.

"Unlike Calton where the heads of the top 3 noble families are on the same level, the Ulrik family stands at the top with their head at the Angel realm. While the others are at the peak of the demigod realm." Dorian gave a little backstory before moving over to the main details.

"He wants us to draw out the head of the Karius family to one of their mines outside the city before eliminating him." Dorian said.

"How are we to do that?" Blake couldn't help but ask.

"The crystal mine is the largest in the north, and it is owned by the Karius family. If any serious problems were to occur at the mine, the family head would be forced to come out." Dorian went on to explain how a member of the League would infiltrate the mine and cause a massive collapse that would need to be resolved by the family head.

"Alright, when do I move out?" Blake asked after understanding the mission details.

"That's not all." Dorian said with a mischievous smirk on his face.

Although he had no idea of what Dorian was cooking, Blake felt it was something he would like. "I am all ears."

"Every damage we inflict on the Synder empire will help us massively during the war. So instead of just killing him, we blow up the mine; Then we kill the leader of the Ulrik family, thus making the client a prime suspect and getting him arrested."

"That way we will take out 3 top fighters of the empire!" Blake was shocked by how sinister Dorian could be.

"The head of the Ulrik family will be out of his villa around the time of your first assassination. I will send out people to handle the explosion, while you are warped directly to his location." Dorian explained.

"I have no problem with that. When do I start?" Blake asked with an evil grin plastered on his face.

Ironwood City was considered the Calton of the North, but the only difference was the increased amount of vegetation and mines within and outside the city. It was the perfect mixture of urbanization and nature that gave the city a fresh vibe.

The dense vegetation and surplus mines gave rise to a lot of special locations and businesses that were only unique to Ironwood City.

For example, the Miner's District was a bustling hub of activity. It housed the headquarters of various mining guilds and administrative offices. Tunnels beneath the city connected to the mines, allowing for efficient transportation of resources. This led to the deployment of Ash Corps to guide the tunnels from both beasts and smugglers.

As for when the beast tide season arrived, the tunnels would be closed directly from the mines long beforehand. This made protecting the city easier since everything was happening on the surface.

Other examples of Ironwood's uniqueness were the Great Forge and the Lumber Quarter. The former was located at the heart of Ironwood, a colossal foundry where metals from the mines were smelted and forged. While the latter specialized in crafting with ironwood lumber, known for its exceptional strength. Here artisans created intricate woodwork, from furniture to weapons.

Sharply at 4 hours past dawn, the Head of the Karius family received news of a heavy mine collapse that had trapped some miners at a part of the mine.

Without wasting time, the Head of the family called 2 other family elders who had also awakened the earth element as their secondary element.

Using a warp array specially set up for the crystal mine, they arrived in front of the mine's entrance, but someone was blocking it.

He was dressed in a black leather shirt and black trousers, covered by a black veil. The only distinct features were his white hair and the great sword with wolf designs on its handle.

"I see what is going on here on here!" The Head of the Karius family burst out in laughter.

"Is the League of Assassins looking down on me that they sent a Nascent demigod to assassinate me?!" The Head's voice changed from laughter to rage.

"Take care of him while I fix the mine." The head instructed the two Advanced demigods.

Without a care of the Head's blabbering, Blake released Ebony and Ivory who transformed into two 4-meter-tall wolves.

AWOO!

On sensing the terrifying aura, the 2 elders immediately activated their defence artifacts, before conjuring Earth walls in front of them in anticipation of attacks.

Unfortunately for them, when the beasts had chomped down on them, a spatial corridor had opened right above them.

CRACK!

The sound of cracking skulls reverberated all around the mine, sending chills down the spine of the family head as he saw the heads of elders being crushed.

"Shit!" The head of the family head cursed as his anger was instantly quenched and replaced by dread.

Back at Ironwood, the Head of the Ulrik family just made his way out of the Ulrik estate. It was at this moment that an explosion that shook the entire city occurred.

BOOM!
