The Author's POV

Chapter 364

Thud—

With a loud thud, Orion's body fell face first on the ground.

As his body fell onto the ground, everything froze and the atmosphere in the hall chilled completely.

Apart from Waylan and Douglas, everyone had confused and astonished looks on their faces.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, Randur, who everyone thought was a traitor turned out to never have been a traitor but was actually manipulating the whole scene from behind.

Not everyone was clear about what had happened, but they all knew that at this moment, Orion had been taken out by Randur.

'I guess my jobs done…I'm tired.'

Staring at the scene from afar, my eyes grew heavy.

For the past week or so I have had sleepless nights, trying my best to infiltrate this place and making sure everything went according to plan.

It was hard.

It was really hard.

In an unfamiliar place surrounded by enemies, this place reminded me of my time back at the Monolith. Just the mere thought about the past made it hard for me to get a good night's sleep as the nightmares would haunt me in my sleep.

I could only cope with the nightmares by working even more. Trying my best to make sure that my plan had no flaws.

"Huaam..."

A soft yawn involuntarily escaped from my lips.

Blinking a couple of more times, turning around, I headed for the door and exited the hall.

Soon enough a massive battle would ensue, and given my current state and strength, I would be nothing but a burden.

The best course of action for my sake was to just leave.

"Ukk..."

Upon exiting the hall and walking quite far from it, entering a secluded room, and closing the door behind me, I took out my communication device and sent a message to Waylan and the others.

'Once you're done, come and wake me up.'

The message was short and concise with the coordinates of my location attached to it.

Bzzz— Bzzz—

"Ah, right, the dampening system is back on."

It was then that I realized that the dampening system was back on and I could no longer send a message.

"Oh well..."

Shrugging my shoulders and leaning back on the wall, I slid down and finally relaxed.

'It's finally over…'

At least my part was over.

Everything else would be left to Douglas and the others. With the teleportation devices down and their leader currently under the effects of a strong poison, everything was set for our victory.

Finally, after planning everything for over a month, the plans came to fruition and the war was now as good as over.
