Code: Infinity [Reboot]

Chapter 26 - 'Higher' Level World? More like Higher Entertainment.

He then looked over to the person in question and asked, "You told me that you have something of importance to me, right? Tell me.", with a friendly smile he asked. Although he was bored, he thought, 'Hehe. This person looks so innocent. I hope he provides me with some entertainment...'

As if he found the hope his, 'Ryan' quickly brightened up as he quickly searched through the old rough coat and quickly bought a scroll out from his clothes and gave it to the Viscount.

"Lord Viscount, I am from the Campbell town that is actually managed by your brother. I was guarding the Lord but due to the horde attacking the town because of the involvement of some 'Shadow' bastard! I barely escaped the attack. I hope this will clear up your doubt."

Then with another quick search, Ryan took out a small bottle that contained several blue pills. Extending his hand, Ryan gave it to the Lord Viscount, "There is another thing that the Lord had given to me before he left to escape."

Taking the scroll and the small bottle from the person, the Viscount looked at the seal which was made up of melted wax, and with narrowed eyes hummed. "I see. Good work, soldier. Guards, take the person and give him some hospitality."

With a quick wave of a hand, the Viscount's face turned serious when he came to know that the letter was authentic and was actually from his brother, making him leave the scene, enter his study room, and open the scroll.

Looking at the content of the letter, his face turned a bit grim.

The letter explained how his brother discovered a bottle containing blue pills from the market by some coincidence which was being tracked by some kind of organization that had been helping the Revolution Army.

'Shadow Garden, huh?'

He quickly took the bottle into his possession and tried to find the purpose of the pill but he was soon hunted by the organization.

In starting the organization sent some weak assassins that were killed before they could reveal anything but soon more powerful assassins were sent after him. So much so that many of his most trusted guards were killed.

Even the letter that he tried to send to his brother, was intercepted before it reached him. So in fear of being killed by the assassins, he sent it to him in the hope of helping him.

Furthermore, he had gained some knowledge regarding the recent assassin sent after him. Which he had attached at the bottom of the scroll.

This made the Viscount curse for his younger brother's stupidity in getting involved in shady work. In anger for giving him, the Viscount such a dangerous item, which might still be traced by the 'Shadow Garden', he could only curse his luck out.

Looking down at the scroll, and the poster was glued to the scroll by the wall of his study with an angry expression, he started to think of a way to escape the organization and the wrath of 'The Revolutionary Army'.

Although he was scared to some extent, he was not so scared that he would go into hiding.

The Revolutionary Army might have gained some influence, but since the Night Raid hadn't actually reached out and killed any important Noble within the Empire, the Viscount was just a bit scared, but not too much.

-

Placing the scroll on the table, the Viscount looked at the pill in the bottles. After thinking for a second, he asked one of his soldiers to ask for someone who would help him with the task he had on his hand.

Night fell as the Viscount was sleeping on the bed with a carefree posture.
