章 541: Belated Trouble

"I won't be starting immediately, as I have other important matters to take care of. But I'm saying it now so that you can prepare. I may come anytime to announce the start of the duel."

He looked at them with a stern gaze and added, "So, all seven of you will be my seven shadows. I plan to have seven more lower shadows later, but right now, your ranking will be determined by the duel. And when the other seven come, if they're strong enough, they can displace any of you from your position."

Northern spoke with a cold tone.

"So, you must not get lazy after securing a position." He glanced at Jeci and Lynus.

Then he leaned back and exhaled helplessly.

'I hope they all take this seriously. Even I am finding it hard to believe that I'm doing something like this.'

But he needed to; something was coming, and Northern knew it more than ever before. Hence, he was preparing strongly for it.
