Dawn Of Legend:Rise Of An Extra



Massive double doors, adorned with intricate carvings and embellished with precious metals swing opened with a resounding crack.

A chilly blizzard blew that made hundreds of people kneeling on the ground shiver in fear.

Everyone inside the room was so focused on thinking about the future scenario that no one present inside the room saw the opening of the door until a tall handsome man walked into the room. But when the sound of his polished golden shoes clacked onto the deathly silent room, everyone's eyes widened.

Strolling into the room, wearing majestic noble attire, and with his hands in one of his packets, Kevin walked in. His deathly aura was hard to miss and the furious look in his eyes was enough to send people shaking in their spots.

They gulped in fear seeing those bleak, dark frosty eyes as if the person was preparing himself for a hunt.

Everyone forgot to breathe, as he passed by them and walked over the red long velvet carpet, then ascended his steps and sat in the plush soft cushions of the Throne.

His eyes darted across the people as he fidgeted his fingers.

His silence tensed their nerves as they saw the Emperor keeping mum.

Beluga bowed his head to greet Kevin and spoke with a nonchalant expression.

"We have managed to apprehend most of the noble families of the students who were kidnapped before."

Kevin turned his head with a snap and his intense gaze lingered on Beluga

"What do you mean by most? That means you didn't catch everyone."

Seeing Kevin's anger directed at him, Beluga didn't flinch back rather he replied bravely.

"I am Prime Minister. A man working behind the scenes, not at the front. It was already late when I was informed of all this and for your kind information, I wasn't at that place."

Beluga raised his specks giving a monotonous answer. If others weren't present, he wouldn't have held himself from cursing this guy for tossing things and going to play with 9-Stars from Omen and coming back to find that shit happened.

The nobles laid on the floor and looked at their interaction with a bewildered gaze.

Only a countable few could talk to the Emperor this rudely and remain alive.

Surprisingly, out of all of them, Beluga was the weakest with a mere strength of 5-Star. The presence of this guy had always been a thorn in nobles' eyes as he didn't come from the aristocracy, rather he was just a fallen noble.

Kevin sighed as he tried to suppress his increasing irritation. His beloved daughter, the apple of his eye, had been reduced to such a state and he stood there pathetically unable to do anything.

When he saw her, he didn't want to leave but he forced himself to crawl till here. If he wasn't an Emperor who had to uphold the virtue of this position, he would have burnt all these assholes down...no, he would have cut them into pieces and fed them to worms.

Retracting his gaze from Beluga, his eyes locked onto the nobles kneeling on the ground.

"So, tell me what you have to say."

A cold frosty voice echoed. The words were barely audible but as they escaped from his lips, they bellowed like tempest.

"Your Highness, we were deceived."

"Your Highness, we are innocent."

"Is that all?" Kevin asked, staring at the people bowing down.

Seeing them keeping their mouth, he shook his head.

"Annoying as always."

"Beluga!" Kevin shouted.

Beluga bowed his head and clapped his hands.

Following his notion, several knights walked carrying rugged morbid figures of grotesque humans and threw them onto the floor with widened eyes.

The nobles' eyes widened with fear seeing those disgusting figures.

At first, they looked away while spitting curses at that figure wondering who these pieces of shit but as they looked closer, their hearts jolted in shock and all their hair stood up in the air.

"Wife...."

"My Lady?"

"Uncle....."

"My son…what happened to you?"

"Husband, save us!"

"Father, please plead mercy for us. We are innocent yet still they tortured us."

"Master, we are innocent. Master, please save us."

The nobles who kneeled felt goosebumps rising all over their bodies. The people who were beaten and tattered turned out to be their relatives, servants and families.

A nobleman unable to restrain his anger screamed pointing at Kevin.

"Emperor, how can you harm innocent people?! This is too much! You are just bullying us with power!"

"You are misuing the authority, Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty, This is too much. How can one swallow such grave injustice…"

The nobles swallowed their saliva as a cold blizzard blew and those who pointed at Kevin froze into statues enveloped by a layer of ice.

"Bullying…Grave injustice…."

"What an exquisite choice of yours to hide your sophistication and hypocrisy with those words."

"When your servants detonated to harm many and your children were killed in the tournament, where the fuck were you?"

"Why didn't you preach justice to them when they took the lives of other innocent kids?!" Kevin roared angrily.

The nobles shivered and curled up in fear as their gazes interchanged between their bloodied families and then towards The Emperor's cold, merciless eyes glancing at them as if staring at some dead corpses who were going to be slaughtered.

At that time, one of the nobles in fear of being tortured cruelly, stood up and shouted.

"But we didn't know they would do this! They were just not in the right mind."

BOOM!

The person who tried to speak vanished and his image appeared struck at the wall forming a crack.

"If you knew they weren't in their right mind then why the hell did you push them to participate in the tournament?" Kevin fumed clenching his fist while trying to suppress his urge to kill.

"His Majesty, we are also wronged. I didn't have any plans to re-enrol my child. It was Count Art who advised us to do this. He also formulated a plan. He was also the one who drew Duke White and Duke Holmes to use veto power." Count Hezen pleaded with a frightful tone.

Following his suit, the other nobles hit their head on the floor begging for mercy and recounting the events.

Their stupid behaviour irked Kevin to the core.

"Are you all kidding with me or am I kidding with you?"

"A random person will come to you and ask you to join the rebellion and you will follow suit. Have your minds gone to take a shit?!" Kevin roared, slamming his foot on the ground sending a shockwave that swept the people kneeling on the floor.

"Your Majesty, we would never dare. Rebelling and this is a different thing."

"Who the hell said that?"

Kevin walked down from the throne with a thick murderous intent that dyed everything in red.

"Many bombs were detonated, and thousands of people's lives were in danger. The Tower was breached and students were killed. Is there any difference between rebelling and this? Do you take my authority as some shit?!" Kevin screamed glaring at a group of men who shivered in fright.

The servant and family members who were brought were locked in cuffs, thinking that once the misunderstanding was cleared they would be released but hearing the Emperor's angry speech, their expression became pale.

"Wait!" Kevin stopped for a moment and looked around.

"Where is that misogynistic bastard Hellford Art? Where are the Arts?"

A brief silence lingered and everyone forgot to take a breath feeling an immense suffocation weighing upon them.

Kevin turned his gaze locking onto Beluga who was yawning softly contrary to the tense atmosphere.

Feeling an intense gaze as if someone wanted to drill a hole in him, Beluga squinted his eyes.

"Huh! Is it over?''

"No, it isn't. I am asking where Art's household is."

Hearing the question, Beluga changed his casual stance to that of professional and replied quickly, "Your Majesty, the Arts had escaped."

CREAK!

The whole Throne room shook violently, jolting everyone in shock.

On looking at Kevin, they saw a large crack spreading like cobwebs underneath his feet.

"Beluga!" Kevin spoke slowly as if trying to restrain himself from going on a killing rampage.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Beluga bowed his head showcasing perfect manners.

"Find the Arts. I don't care how you do it. If required, send the entire Imperial Knights or borrow the others. I want you to find them."

"And how the hell did they escape?"

"Your Majesty, I am not from the shadow group or someone who takes care of the intelligence department." Beluga scowled.

Beluga clicked his tongue inwardly, wanting to curse this guy.

'It's not as if I knew they were gonna make a mess. Even if I wanted to take a look at them, I don't have two heads and four hands to take care of so many things while you dump all the work on me and go around to play.'

"Enough!" Kevin raised his hand to stop Beluga's inner mumbling that could be discerned by seeing his face and looked down at the group of ants.

"Take them!"

"Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty!''

The group of nobles bowed their heads and raised their chins with exasperated expressions, eyes gleaming in joy thinking that the Emperor had mercy on them.

However, even before they could rejoice, cold water washed over them.

"Take them away and throw them into prison. Until everything is clear, I don't want any of them to see the rays of light.'' Kevin ordered, waving his hand and throwing everyone into the abyss of despair.

"NOO!"

"Your Majesty, we are innocent."

"Your Majesty, all of this had nothing to do with me. It was my husband's plan."

"We are not part of any of this. We are innocent."

The nobles and their wives cried as they pinned the blame on the other party.

They kept asking for mercy trying to appease Kevin but curled seeing that murderous cold gaze as the Knights pulled them away without any shred of mercy.

'If only that asshole, piece of shit White wasn't involved in this.'

The whites were the oldest Ducal family whose hands penetrated every corner of Cyprus. Even most emperors were found to be puppet emperors made by White previously.

If Kevin and his predecessors had not been alerted before, The Whites might have already occupied the whole Empire.

And a direct confrontation was bound to split Cyprus. And about Duke Holmes, that idiot fell into their traps and lost his one and only son.

Kevin then looked at Beluga and issued a command,"Try to look for every member that communicated with them. Don't leave a single trace."

"Your Majesty, you are asking us to do something impossible. We can't possibly find everyone out there as there are thousands of people interacting with each noble household." Beluga complained.

As Kevin fell into deep thought for a moment a sharp yet barely audible voice fell into their ears.

"Just release their servants and wives. The thief will come and look into them."

"And stop frowning. Since that bastard had already used Veto power, even if you confront him and push him into a corner, he can't use Veto power to get rid of his sins. You already have the opportunity you aimed for."

Kevin and Beluga's attention drew towards the platform where they saw a man in a dark cloak, walking out from behind the Throne and sitting on it without any fear.

"Can you at least give me some face since we are in the Throne room?" Kevin grumbled.

"Face, do you think your face is worth a lot?" A sneer echoed in the empty place.

Lowering his hood, the man reminisced with a saddened expression and said, "The only good thing about this seat is that it's quite comfortable. Otherwise, this place makes me feel shit remembering those burdensome days when I had to impersonate you and sit here taking care of all your shit."

Hearing this Beluga almost burst into tears, unbeknownst to him whether this was due to seeing the person he admired the most or due to the grievance he had suffered after this man disappeared.

'Finally, someone who understands my pain.'
