....
The next morning, the news that shook the whole of the South Coast Power system and hierarchy broke through.
The newly formed, revolutionary and dominant group named RebelHearts is backed up by a supreme Rank 3 Magus!
In addition to the top brass, a lots of Wandering magus and acolytes were taking intrest in this group for obvious reasons.
This group is very well known for taking neither Dark nor Light Magi side, also it's history of being very tightly protective of it's members, as well as the supposed great conditions provided by them, made many jealous of those who became part of this group Early on.
This group became a great alternative to all those who didn't want to wrestle in the Magi Politics and rather study and perfect their craft in magic.
All of the Powerhouse of the South Coast, including Light and Dark Magi immediately changed their attitude towards this group.
The only organization which were vigorously offending them, after being aware of their previous strength were obviously the ones backed up by these Rank 3 Magus.
Almost all the groups that had skirmish with them tried to appease this strained interaction.
The reason of this change is because, their Leader don't want to offend RebelHearts for no concrete reason and make them join hands with the other side.
The lifespans of official Magi were quite long. Hence, they were quite tolerant of those at the same level of power as them, and could coexist harmoniously.
Previously the group was recognised as just a Rank 2 Organization, so no one really cared for them, since that level cannot make waves strong enough to alert them but now the situation has changed.
Oddly enough, generally such a news is a high class knowledge spreading its wings and chirping only to the upper class, but contrary to this, the organization strength was actually very much preached and advertised, along with the concentration of Magi community due to Secret Plane the news spread like wildfire.
One of the highlights were about Leylin Farlier, a genius magus who previously studied in Abyssal Bone Forest and become Official Magus before 20. He is the second in command as well as the only known student of the mysterious Rank 3 Magus.
The Abyssal bone forest was beyond euphoric as they announced their great pride in him, of course they conveniently forgot about the demise of Purple-Gold Flower family at the hands of the group.
They announced that The Family mistreated Bicky and worked against the school protocol. They have taken Bicky off of the hit list and Professor Kroft was given Vice-Chairman position.
Seeing this shameful behavior even Leylin eyes twitched but he still gave them face and accepted their good favours. He has studied there anyways and there is no meaning in making them his enemy since he has far surpassed their level.
Master Kroft has also showed kindness towards him and has been a good teacher, If this small favour of him can make his life better, Leylin won't mind.
This position may enable Kroft to get his hands on better research materials and present more opportunities for him in the future.
The ones who were horrified were the open enemies of Leylin and RebelHearts. Their were many who wanted to appease the other party but, If the Tiger makes friends with deer, what will it eat!
Many were picked out to become examples. To the outside perspective at least, as many small light and dark magi organization and some families were blacklisted.
Previously The Lilytell Family found out about Bicky stealing their meditation techniques, the information that she herself leaked at Leylin's orders so they pick a fight with them. Now, they have only two option: either gave their complete meditation techniques all the way to Rank 2 or suffer extinction.
Many fall in such a situation. Along with this, Leylin send a few of his spies to all of the Large Organization laced with downgraded version of A.I.Chips, They didn't even knew about it's existence. They were kept in the dark about this, as the only function for these A. I. Chips were the one way transfer of information to Leylin. Once their identity is compromised the A.I.Chip will detonate killing the Magus with it. This helped Leylin to continue growing his vast Library and knowledge from various sources.
In the end after facing intense aggression from Leylin, almost all of their enemies were scratching and clawing to find a way out. Many obviously banded together to create a resistance group, the action that made Leylin even more happy since he don't have to hunt them down individually. Many wanted to cry but didn't have any tears left, they were drowned in their own regret, they even tried to appeal to their Rank 3 Magus.
Rebelhearts seem to show no face to other similarly powerful organization targeting all and any of his enemy in their domain too. Since they didn't cross the line and didn't affected them, all huge organization decided to ignore the blood turmoil that ravaged the current situation even more.
One such family which was very regretful of making them their enemies were : The Botelli Family.
This crazy prophet family attacked Bicky, after the prophecy of Jenna. They wanted to know the Abyss that looms over and rid the world of its upcoming bloodbath. Leylin knew about this obviously and made proper arrangements, all of their secret trap plans were already known to him, so Bicky turned the tides and cursed Jenna like in the novel.
The old women decided to pressurize Bicky later to treat Jenna, since their attempt to cure her resulted in failure. As they were about to do so, the horrific news of Rebelhearts broke out along with Bicky being the fellow apprentice with Leylin under the same master back in their academy days and even now their relationship is quite good, apparently intimate.
The Botelli Family has no more choice but to give the Sacred Flame meditation techniques (Divination Technique) now as Leylin raised the demand.
.....
Right now, Leylin was standing in his balcony as he looked at the scenery outside. A pair of acquaintance were making their way to his personal quarters accompanied by Anna as he waited.
"Time passes so quickly, I have been rushing for so long in order to become powerful, that it seems normal now. " Leylin murmurs to himself as he looks at his ring " At first, Strength and Power was a necessity to me to survive but as time passed I began to truly enjoy the thrill of being a Magi. Always searching for ways to become stronger, researching, Innovating, Creating and even destroying. Trying to unravel the ways of the world and the mystery hidden in it. The joy of succeeding and even the bitterness of failure. All of these have somehow become something that I really enjoy. "
Unlike his usual look of boredom and apathy right now, Leylin looked to be very serious ' When did I become this way? Not just this but my personality itself too. Although I was never the greatest of man, I was never so cold and calculating. I know that this world needs or maybe even demands one to be logical and I am all for it, as I really truly don't regret all that I have done so far to get to this point but... '
'... I have this gnawing feeling that I want something and I don't know why but I do. Is it that I am trying to avoid this Or am I just fearful to know.'
This feeling and doubt is something that has always been present in the subconscious mind of Leylin but he always tried to suppress it. The thing is very simple.
' I need answers.. Why did I come here?, why do I have this body?, why this world?, why do I have the A.I.Chip?, why this weird devour skill?.. all of this, I am afraid to know the answer but I want to. I know that in this world the only one capable of such a feat are those people rivaling gods!' Leylin knows that even his thinking about them may alert them. As for, will they care for a weak little Rank 2 Magus calling their name? That's a different question but he knows that they are not beings he can even dare to question. Not now at least.
He knows that his reincarnation is not a simple circumstances of a reincarnation offered by God out of pity, there must be a reason and Leylin wants to know. He has all this time, since the day he rode that carriage to Academy selection camp he wanted to know.
'All of that can be left for the future, I don't have the strength to get those answer now anyways. One thing is for sure, whoever reincarnated me, if they wanted to, they can get rid of me anytime they desire or feel like it. So, my flourishing existence should mean I am safe. At least For Now! ' Leylin thought wryly, he really hate this feeling of being so vulnerable. Like an ant that could be crushed at someone's whim, This feeling kills him. His obsession of power is born out of desire to become free, He wants to reach at the top and topple those who wants to harm him. He has been given an amazing gift in order to do just that and he will.
The one's who gave him such gifts must have a reason to do so, he is grateful to them for that but if they are in some way in his path then.....
Leylin red eyes flashed with burning desire and intent. No matter the circumstances he will carve open a path for himself and no one is allowed to get in his way. Not Even Gods!
