Leylin quickly turned his attention from Krupp and exchanged a few words with his previous companions, friends and current subordinates. Not long after he turned his attention to a burly man standing at the end of the line up.
He had thick eyebrows and large eyes, a tall and straight nose, and sparkling gold hair. His face was mature and dignified, his body was sturdy and well muscled, looking extremely manly.
"George it seems you have also flourished in these years. How have you been?"
"Yes, Your Majesty because of your kindness and benevolence I have been good, I work for the admission department as one of the branch head. The Rebelhearts is a cradle of knowledge for everyone and this temple of scholars have helped lot of talented but less resourceful students to master their craft with a peace of mind, and from the behalf of the whole Magus community here we sincerely and gracefully thank his Majesty, Leylin Farlier!" As soon George got the limelight he immediately started bootlicking furiously with an extreme fervor, and Leylin could only inwardly shook his head. Obviously with this many years in Magus World George has learned the custom and have adapted to it.
As soon as he finished speaking and bowed, everyone stood and bowed too following his example. In just a few words George took the lead and gained a certain approval and momentum before everyone present here, by strength he is equal to just merely a newly advanced Rank 2 and this would be very beneficial for his political career later on.
Leylin also didn't deprived him of this chance and let him be, these years George have not gained any favours from his relationship with Leylin but only relied on himself to advance. From talent prospect he isn't too bad but as a Magus advances in ranking talent becomes an additional factor not the defining characteristics for success. It was only because of advanced mediation techniques available in RebelHearts exchangeable with contribution and loyalty that he reached this strength but now it seems his strength is likely to not exceed anymore and at most hover around Rank 2.
As Leylin exchanged a few words with krupp, George and others he fell silent and sat still, Grenn immediately got his clue and stepped forward to address the rest of the crowd.
"Everyone, I would like your attention please. As you know Your Majesty have just arrived and have have many things to attend to so, I would directly get to the main topic." Grenn spoke in a cold and emotionless voice. His temperament is really awe inspiring filled with irrefutable prestige, if not it would be really difficult to curb so many high ranking Magus with his knight status.
"My fellow Magus and Beast Tamers, you have worked tirelessly with your utmost dedication for this organization and rest assured that your efforts are not only glorified but also appreciated and From the decree of the Monarch of Blood, Leylin Farlier it's my honor to announce a small token of gratitude from the organization for your loyalty."
"Nina Greenwood!"
"Yes!"
"Your contribution is vast and well known without any need for introduction, the friends from Beast World would be the first to authorized this statement!" All the beast Tamers nodded with good will, Nina studies have mostly been centered around bloodlines and later on after getting her hands on the top class information about Beast World, she had worked frantically and her contribution to the field are extremely impressive, even Leylin acknowledges her experimental talents and according to him unless one is a Morning Star Bloodline Warlock its very rare to see such high level work.
"With that, your department allotment is increased by 300% and we would also open a few more intriguing topic of research for you, to name a few Branded Swordsmen, Bio-booster, Steel knight etc. I hope that you may achieve greater success in the future."
"Yes, for the glory of Your Majesty!" Nina bowed before Leylin excitedly, she is well aware of the gigantic difference in status between them and hence have no desire to live off of the past interaction. Such behavior is also appreciated by him, this is directly opposite to women like Celine, Nina is someone who actually pursue the path of truth with great dedication, an asset to his organization who would definitely rise to greater heights in the future.
Leylin stayed inside the meeting room for some time only as his interest dwindled, before leaving he only waited as Grenn announced their rewards, The Beast Tamers each got a piece of low-level Magic Equipment and others were also generously rewarded. There were also Bicky and Krupp gaining free benefits because neither have really done much for the organization especially considering the good haul they received but no one complained.
Krupp is a diligent man who gained a bit of favour from Leylin his future is bright and as for Bicky they just guessed she must have some past connection with Leylin.
According to the wishes of Bicky of that time, She didn't join Rebelhearts but rather went adventuring around the continent she has been missing for a long time roaming freely, and only recently few years back reached out to the organization.
Apparently there was some trouble which she couldn't shake off and had to retreat and revert back in order to hide, she held a token of Rebelhearts branded by Leylin and also Grenn and Freed knew her hence she was brought to the headquarters.
Afterwards she got the information that Leylin is returning back and so decided to meet him before leaving on her future journey.
....
News of Leylin's reappearance did not shock most of the lower-ranked Magi in the south coast. What made them sigh was the change in the leadership of various cities under the Light and Dark Magus organizations, as well as the brutal death of various prestigious Magi Lords who ostricated the attack against the Farlier Family descendants.
Even those people who brought upon this disaster on themselves didn't knew that the few rugs of Rebelhearts that they were killing would have some relations with Leylin Farlier of that time, so many years have passed that Leylin became a legend even in the organization not to mention others where he was akin to a taboo because of the bloodbath he brought.
Only a few Organization who didn't participate were spared meanwhile all the involved members along with friends, disciples, teachers, organization and family were killed mercilessly.
After this event everyone got to witness the might of the Rebelhearts for themselves, to understand that gap a simple assessment could be made compassing their Trump cards, for a Organization with even a Rank 3 in charge a high-level Magic Artifact was a life saving game changing thing but such a valuable items was actually possessed by half a dozen of experts from Rebelhearts! And these were only people who were seen using them, as for the real power of this group no one knows.
No matter which organisation they belonged to, the higher-ranked Magi were completely shaken. This trend did not seem to vanish, but instead became increasingly intense.
Meanwhile, news of Leylin's return spread like wildfire among the higher class and the thought of his supreme control over this outlandishly strong organization gave rise to a bad premonition, and many Magus historians flipped through thick tomes hoping to find all traces of him in the historical records. The most important order now was not to provoke Leylin or the Farlier Family. It wasn't just the light Magi, even the dark Magi enforced this rule.
Thankfully for Dark Magus, due to the good connection of Rebelhearts with Abyssal Bone Forest and small contact with other Dark Magus organization they suffered very less loss. Quite in fact only those who were stupidly involved were killed and no one with a presence of mind and good grasp of overall situation was caught in this cleansing.
The Light and Dark Magus together were trying to probe the Rebelhearts which is an undeniable fact but due to prior connection the Dark Magus were much smarter in their approach, as for the death of the Farlier family seeds it was complete mistake and a silly coincidence.
The Light and Dark Magus involved were actually not much in the wrong and merely killing the parties involved could have been enough but a statement was needed to be made and the pride of anyone with the surname Farlier cannot be sullied no matter the cost and hence a disaster came crashing down on them.
In such a situation, a carriage that was being pulled by a flaming skeleton horse slowly entered the boundaries of the Abyssal Bone Swamp.
*Caw! Caw!* A few red-eyed crows flew in the sky, causing nostalgia to arise in Leylin's eyes. Having moderated his aura, he seemed like a regular human. The only thing that showed he was not normal was the aura of nobility that he inadvertently leaked.
The Abyssal Bone Swamp belonged to the Abyssal Bone Forest Academy, which was Leylin's destination. As the place that had guided him into the ranks of Magi, Leylin still felt something for his alma mater.
"So much time have passed and we have came so far!" Leylin murmured slowly, "Though a lot of our previous friends have probably disappeared, I still want to take a look. What about you Bicky?"
"Your Majesty, I have also not returned since that time, it's really nostalgic to think about." A beautiful green haired women with a harmonious temperament graciously bowed and spoke softly.
Leylin turned his attention to her with a bit of interest in his eyes, the Bicky before him now and of that time seem like completely different person. Leylin didn't enquire much about her past but only mildly showed interest and as he was returning back to the academy Leylin asked her to accompany him.
"Your Majesty, if I am not so impudent to ask. Would it be really fine to send her there? I am not trying to undermine her but those people are very terrific." Bicky spoke with a touch of fear and concern but Leylin can easily see through her attempt for keen probing.
"You don't have to fear for their safety, there is nothing that can trouble them in that place, and if your news is correct then even more so."
"Oh is that so, may I ask what is the rank of those two noble ladies?"
"Your tongue is much more sweet and polite then it used to be, it's seems you have changed a lot."
"Experience and time really changes people a lot, only when you look at the vastness of this world would you understand the real worth you have in comparison and to be honest it feels very bitter."
"I see, you are right time really changes people. You know both Anna and Ivy from before right?"
"Yes, I do They have changed so much I could barely distinguish."
"They haven't changed much but only gotten stronger, as they are now if either one wants they can easily stream roll the whole South Coast without any resistance!"
"What!?" Bicky gasped shivering at the horror of Leylin's world implications. Anna who used to tend to Leylin needs and call Bicky 'lady' have actually surpassed her by so much and the little kid Ivy who she brought to Rebelhearts from a small town obeying Leylin orders have actually transformed into such a ferocious tigress.
"It was really their good fortune to follow Your Majesty." Bicky spoke with bitterness as she compared her meager strength against them. She used to think that she had a significant metamorphosis turning into an expert, and have reached great heights with her impressive Rank 3 Magus strength but against those two she was worth nothing not to talk about, especially the even more mysterious Leylin.
Since the moment she saw him Bicky knew that now there is no possibility of anything between them, there was a gap impossible to be filled and the past events were merely memories and nostalgia.
"You are not so bad yourself, from you I feel an ancient undulation if not wrong you must have gained a good opportunity." Leylin chuckled looking at her bitter and regretful face, Leylin actually don't held Bicky is neither high regards or disdain she is just one of his past acquaintance. Her most unique ability is her tenacity which definitely helped her a lot and along with the Trump Card Leylin left with her, she gained a good strength in just a few hundred years. When considering her rather underwhelming talent it's really impressive.
Huge tombs appeared before them as they talked after they crossed through the dark forest. Several enormous stone statues of gorillas lined the sides of the tallest tomb in the centre came to life and screeched "INVADERS!"
Shrill alarms began to ring, and white human skulls emerged from the earth one by one. They were followed by torsos and then the rest of their skeletal bodies. The skeletons emitted a dense aura of death as they grabbed rotting metal weaponry before slowly surrounding Leylin and his party.
A few double-headed dogs growled gruffly, with pus flowing profusely from the gaps between their teeth as they circled around them.
"Lunatics who dare offend the dignity of the Abyssal Bone Forest Academy, you will learn what it means to pay a price in blood!" The largest stone gorilla snarled, and the undead troops began to attack.
"Wait!" An imposing voice sounded out, accompanied by large amounts of green flames. Many human figures emerged from underground, all having energy undulations of at least rank 1.
"Director!" The magical beasts bowed towards the new arrivals, the person standing in front of the many professors was a female Magus.
'Sure enough it's her.' Leylin though as he curiously watched the person in front of him. Since Leylin has returned he didn't enquired about anything regarding the situation outside the organization. He was probably even not thinking of coming here wasting his time but eventually he made a decision to take a look at his previous academy and also use this platform to launch another Magi.
