"Definitely a friend!" Abaddon lowered her aggressive stance and answered decisively.
"To be honest, this is a sweet surprise for us. It is such a relief that you two of the people are standing on the same side as us… So… Can you take out the restriction so that we could have our conversation?"
Kayden and Eli still did not move and looked at them vigilantly. After all, the entire Seirende Empire suffered badly because of betrayal.
Gabriel and Abaddon seemed to understand Kayden and Eli's vigilance. Now that they know who they are, they have a better understanding of how they think.
With that, they placed their hands on their hearts and uttered a solemn oath under the name of Celeste.
Only then did Eli and Kayden relax and dispel the restriction array.
"Now, we can talk about everything more clearly…" Gabriel smiled and gave the two a helpless smile.
"We apologize for doing these things." Eli and Kayden apologize briefly. Now that they were established allies, the past grudges must be dealt with.
"We apologize too… I know we gave you a good fright earlier." Gabriel replied with a guilty expression.
"Well, now that everything is cleared… let's talk about each other's intentions…''Abaddon asked in a straightforward manner.
"Our intention is to stop the impending advance of the corrupt temple armies a few days from now. We overheard your conversation earlier and you plan to move three days from now…
I do think that it was quite rushed but this would also be favorable on our side, while the Pope and the Paladin are still not around." Gabriel explained.
"But we do not have enough manpower. We cannot possibly gather enough troops in just two days.."
Kayden frowned but he and Eli were quite surprised that Gabriel and Abaddon would suddenly think that their attack three days from now will be much more agreeable.
"Well… with you are two troops under our names. Add them to your deployable troops, I do think that it would be enough for us to create an impact.
But that is on the premise that each of us will take the remaining seven captains that are here at the moment.
Seeing the three of us, we are already four… Ideally, we still need three more to take on the last three.
Even so, Gabriel and I are confident to even handle all seven of them together." Abaddon explained.
Kayden looked at Eli and thought for a moment, if they add Prince Nalu and the other representatives, they might be able to handle all of the corrupted captains without worry.
But Eli frowned as she remembered another crucial part, "But how about the Cardinal, the High Priests, and the administrator? If I am not mistaken they are also formidable."
Gabriel and Abaddon nodded. They recognized Eli's concern and so they calmly answered,
"As long as the Pope and the Paladin are not around, we are confident to handle the Cardinal and the rest.
Besides, it will not only be mine and Abaddon's forces that were in this plan. There were also a few High Priests and Administrators that were with us!"
"I see…" Eli thought about it and gave Kayden a look.
They spent the next moments learning more about the concerns and about how things will be done on that day.
After some time, Eli and Kayden did not agree entirely but expressed their intentions to cooperate. After all, they still needed to tell these things to Prince Nalu's end and ask for their opinion.
Gabriel and Abaddon did not take offense toward their actions. They allowed the two to discuss this among themselves and give them an answer tomorrow.
"By the way… your assumed identities are already compromised. The reason why you were caught this early was that the line leader saw your movements and immediately reported to us. If not for us moving ourselves to meet you, you might have already been tortured in the chambers." Gabriel said.
"Thus we encourage the two of you to remain in this dimension while the two of us fabricate your deaths. Don't worry, this dimension is not that far from the Holy Island, you can even call on your friends here so that you can plan your move.
We will settle everything and come back for you in the evening to hear your plans once more. Then the day after tomorrow, we will set off. Will this arrangement be alright?" Gabriel asked.
After considering everything, Eli and Kayden expressed their agreement to remain in the dimension for the meantime.
Before bidding goodbye, Abaddon gave Eli and Kayden a token that could let them go in and out of the dimension as long as they wanted.
They wanted to express that the two of them were trustworthy and so Eli & Kayden are free to go out from time to time and check the progress of the preparation.
When Abaddon and Gabriel went out of the dimension, they immediately went back to the harbor where the line leader was already curiously waiting.
Seeing the two, he was shocked to see their disheveled state, and faint traces of fighting were also obvious in their clothing. What's more, it appears that they fought in the water because their clothes are somehow wet.
"Great Sires, have you dealt with the two? Are they really spies?" the line leader's eyes flashed with curiosity and greed.
Abaddon maintained his usual stoic expression and answered, "Hmm.. all killed."
"I knew they were spies! No wonder they appeared to be more talented than they looked! They just wanted an opportunity to infiltrate inside!" The Line leader exclaimed as if he was righteously expressing his concern against Eli and Kayden.
"Now that the spies are dealt with, we must go together, we will still have to report this to the Cardinal," Gabriel replied, looking at everyone who was already ready to leave.
"Yes.. yes… the administrators might have been waiting for these supplies as well.." The line leader fawningly replied. But hearing that Eli and Kayden were already dead, his face had a trace of a pleased smile.
At first, he did like how Eli and Kayden had been useful to the workforce. But since the matter of the gloves reached the higher administrators and they were selected to participate in the team to go inside the inner place, his heart could not help but feel envy.
Now that they are gone, he was pleased. Because that meant that he would have another chance to be promoted as an aide inside the inner place.
Without delaying any further the rest set off on their journey back into the temple. All of Eli and Kayden's colleagues were quite scared upon hearing that the two were spies all along.
But what scares them the most was the fact that they might even be implicated in their actions. After all, Eli and Kayden knew a lot of things inside the palace because of the tasks that they did with them.
Gabriel and Abaddon stayed silent as how they were usually acting. The setting they created is good and beneficial.
All they have to do at the moment is to pass the inquisition of the Cardinals who would surely know about the commotion.
It's better for them to already take the initiative and so they increased their phase and headed straight to the Cardinal's office to report about the matter.
After being permitted for an audience, the two immediately saluted as they entered the Cardinal's office.
"Greetings, Your Eminence… we have something important to report to you…" The two simultaneously said.
"Speak…" The Cardinal, seeing the grave faces of the two, immediately lifted his head and waited for them to reply.
In his mind, what matter could have made the two, who were considered the strongest among the ordained captains?
"Earlier today, we were able to discover two spies hiding among the ranks of those who were just newly admitted in the inner place. Two of them possessed records of all the discoveries they had seen inside.
Fortunately, Abaddon and I managed to catch them before they could even attempt to contact their affiliations. Your Eminence, please see these notes whom they plan to send by means of mana." Then Gabriel took out the notes he asked Eli to copy so that they could surrender them to the Cardinal.
The two sides have already agreed to the alibi all these things and so everything and every piece of information Gabriel was saying at the moment were all from their agreed plans.
The Cardinal frowned, all of the things from the notes were the information that could be observed when one is inside the underground laboratory.
His expression darkened as he asked in a low dangerous tone, "To whom they are affiliated?"
"They appear to be spies from the Seirende Empire. They also possess a few cure potions." Gabriel stretched his arms and let the Cardinal notice the wet clothes he had.
Seeing this and the faint trace of the holy aura in their clothes, the Cardinal knew what they were saying was true!
"Luckily, we decided to deal with them personally… if we made our troops move, they could have dealt with them using this potion and successfully escaped." Abaddon also added.
Everything that happened to them accidentally earlier was now weapons to fool the entire temple!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"Definitely a friend!" Abaddon lowered her aggressive stance and answered decisively.
"To be honest, this is a sweet surprise for us. It is such a relief that you two of the people are standing on the same side as us… So… Can you take out the restriction so that we could have our conversation?"
