Chapter 1109: Check and balances (2)

Even Disk Formation leveler have differences between them. If there is no such difference, why were there was no one to fight against Death Monarch when he was in Disk Formation?

There is high and there is low even in the ranks of Disk Formation. If Great General Wang Jian were to set his gaze upon the Beggar Association and wanted to wipe them out from the face of the Earth, it would be an easy task for him.

And the Beggar Association is not an association that wanted to overthrow Death Monarch or to assassinate people or do bad things.

They are more like a nonprofit organization only it is full of disenfranchised people who were very powerful.

Some officials even agree with some of the things that the Beggar Association fought for. 

But Loraiss is not the only one he met. He also met Wanda. The scar of her face seems even more prominent. 

Wanda do not know her but he knows her. When he was one of the kids of the Lost Boys any jobs coming from Wander the Scar Face woman, is a job only those older Lost Boys would take.

She used to fund many of the dark crimes that happens in the Capital. She was picked up by the Shadow Guards a few years ago when the Court was purging any criminal elements around the Capital

He thought that woman had died executed by the Shadow Guards.

But as it turns out, Milos had met her ordering a few operatives of the Shadow Guards in the field. 

It seems to him that the Shadow Guards brought her in and turn her to one of the members of the Shadow Guards

Even though there is not much connection between him and her, Milos does not think that it is wasteful to gain some information about her.

What little does he know about her was that this is a woman that is very determined. 

Not many see her true face. 

The only thing that one knows about her is that scar on her left side of the face.

Her face changes every time but the scars seem to not be able to be changed. As someone who lives in the other side of the law, Wanda also mastered the art of disguise. 

But because of that scar, no matter what kind of face she disguise herself in, that scar follows her like a ghost that could not let go. 

Milos still had a lot of contacts from his Lost Boys days.

And this is why Eurus is worried about him. Great general Wang Jian their superior and their boss, is quite known to share the same passion of hatred toward criminals like Death Mon arch

Of course, he is not an extreme righteous person. Great general Wang Jian acknowledges not all people who became criminal do so because they wanted to

But he punishes the act. He could forgive a thief who seals because he had no food to eat at home. 

Because then the act of stealing is no longer simply an act of stealing. It is an act of survival, of desperately wanting to eat to survive and live.

To do anything to live, that is human nature. 

The crime itself was something that could have been prevented had anyone is kind enough to give some of their food.

Yet, when the whole world conspires to put him down and no other way seem possible to such person, and he commits the crime of stealing, it is something that the Great General could forgive. 

A person that has been driven to such desperation, considering the act of crime, could be forgiven. 

He understood this principle and when this principle could be applied, he would apply it. But where it could not be applied, there is no mercy in his judgment. 

Eurus is simply worried that Milos connection with so many people in the crime underworld would cut off short his career in the army

Milson put down his cup and then he said

'I need intelligence. And the Lost Boys provided that'

Eurus frowned again and said

'There are other ways'

'Other ways had been taken by the Shadow Guards. Sasha would not let the military touches her things'

'And you think that those Lost Boys are not compromised?' Milos understand what Eurus is trying to say.

The Shadow Guards is very influential. 

They have many black sites and most of their mission is classified so hard that any mention of their mission is always redacted in any information docket.

Other than a few people in Pandemonium who have the necessary clearance level, most people would not even know what the Shadow Guards is doing.

Smiling, Milos said

'The Lost Boys is a decentralized organization. Even I could not control it. I just make use of it. And unlike Sasha, the military did not need the intelligence of the other continent that badly. That is not our job. We only need a firm foot in Pandemonium. If it's about the other continent, the Shadow Guards would have the relevant information. But, it is unacceptable that we do not have any good information gathering method in Pandemonium. Most of it is controlled by the Shadow Guards. But not the Lost Boys. And Sasha would not use children. Because she knew how that would make Death Monarch feels'

A pause and he added

'Death Monarch would find it beneath him to use children'

At this Eurus also does not know what to say

'The Shadow Guards are loyal to Death Monarch…. just like our Great General. Is there a need for us to be this cautious against them?'

Milos shakes his head and said

'Well, Sasha certainly proved herself as one of Death Monarch loyal subjects. But do you know how big the Shadow Guards really is?'

Eurus shakes his head 

Even though his experience in the army is longer than Milos, Milos is more passionate and more dedicated than him. 

In the years he is in the army, he had attracted the eyes of the higher ups. Eurus is not jealous of his friend and instead truly and sincerely hope for the best

Milos is also his sister boyfriend and so he felt even happier that Milos keep climbing the ranks in the army

Milos also have many connections in the army and outside of it and in only a few years he had been promoted the fastest among his batch.

Milos then said

'nobody knows. And that is the problem. The Shadow Guards is thought by some as the elite members of an organization created to act on the behalf of Death Monarch. They are the eyes and ears of Death Monarch. They are also the sword and shield of Death Monarch. How could then it make sense that they are small?'

Smiling, he continues 

'This propaganda that they are a small but elite group is a propaganda that they inseminated. It is to let people not get wary of them. While their intention is truly in line with the thoughts and minds of the officials and our Great General, there is some doubt on this

'Doubts?'

'Death Monarch, the ruler of Pandemonium is already the strongest person in the world. There is no one in this world that could fight with our ruler and win in one on one fight. And there is still the Three Army in the back. These forces are enough to overwhelm most great powers in the world.'

'So?'

'So, Shadow guards who were created to safeguard Death Monarch evolve. They are now an organization that is guarding the interest of Death Monarch. Even so, is there a need for so many personnel and so many resources diverted to them? What are they planning? What is their capabilities? While I don't want to doubt Death Monarch, we all knows that our ruler is not exactly always on Earth. I am just worried certain people would have certain dark thought'

Pausing again, he then added with a sigh

'Shadow Guards is a behemoth organization in Pandemonium. And I don't mean only in terms of influence'

Eurus frowned.

'Is that so bad?' Milos look at Eurus. Eurus face is not exactly pleasant to look at right now

He knows that Eurus deals a lot with the Shadow Guards. And Eurus is more of a people person. He likes to see the best in people. 

It is this kind of kindness and warmth that made Milos gravitates to him. But not everything is rainbow and sunshine even in Pandemonium.

Not all people of Pandemonium knew how bitter is the struggle between the factions inside Pandemonium itself. 

A series of checks and balances needs to be established. That is the problem with some of the organization in Pandemonium.

It lacks checks and balance.
