Days passed quickly, only seven days left until the promised day...
Billy hasn't moved out of the guest house in two days already, He couldn't even sleep for a few days now, he just walks up and down the reception room none stop
During the recent period, Zara has completed the modification of the furnaces one by one successfully, and they have already been sent to the factories in the new lands.
a few problems occurred on the way as the rebels tried to block their road and hijack whatever they have, but the Burton family soldiers were able to fend them off and deliver all the furnaces safely
But the general situation has not improved much...
The good thing is that the closer the promised day gets, the more the rebel attacks would calm down.
Until recently, there were no significant attacks against the Burtons like before
But also, as the promised day approaches, all the soldiers of the Burton family feel that the space is tightening around them...
the suffocating calm and the looks that the citizens give them, and the cautious behavior of the big families... all of this indicate that the rebellion has not subsided as it seems on the surface.
Rather, it has been put in a state of idleness so that the crowd can see what their new rulers intend to do on the promised day
And if they couldn't keep their promises, those tens of millions of people will... Well, no one wanted to think about that.
In fact, according to a report of a snitch of the locals, he said that the leaders of the rebellion wish that that day would come quicker!
They say that it is impossible for a *lowly family Earl* to give the public so much money to work in factories, or even to give the big families a minor law technique,
They are preparing for it and want the real spark of rebellion to be the day the deadline expires...
when the true face of the invading Earl family shows itself after their despicable plan to buy time and play on the people's weaknesses fall apart.
They wish for the moment when an official from the Burton family comes out and says that there have been problems and that they are asking for another period of time to do more preparations...
The furnaces are in the factories, and Mila has made several copies of the Minor Fire Law Technique that Robin created... Almost everything is ready, except for one thing... Robin's orders!
All of this was his plans and his creations, they can't do something without consulting him, at the last possible minute at least, they wouldn't take a step without orders, nor Billy would force Robin to leave his seclusion to give it.
The Burton family's army in the new lands raised their alert levels to the max, The five Saints issued orders for every soldier or knight out there to return and get ready for the storm and took the five major factories as defensive centers.
During the past year, General Edward completed the training of the new army of 50,000 soldiers, although armed with rusty iron weapons, it was still a standard trained army... and now they are all in a position of high alert at the border between the Duchy of Alton and the Duchy of Evren, ready to join the battles if Robin didn't give the green light before the time is up.
The only thing that didn't stop Billy from sending in the army yet was that a week ago Robin opened the door to his room, took the metal tablets that were in front of his door, and closed again silently...
Although he didn't say anything, at least he seemed to be making progress!
Five more days later... just two days before the promised day...
Robin's door finally opened again.
When Billy heard the sound of the door opening, he couldn't wait to see if Robin was really going to come out to him, but he rushed in with all his speed and stood in front of the door in the blink of an eye, grabbed the shoulder of Robin who was about to put his foot out of the room and shook him, as he shouted: " WHAT THE HELL TOOK YOU SO LONG? yesterday I ordered our new army to move and they are now on their way to the new lands!"
Robin raised his hand and slapped Billy's forehead hard, "What does that have to do with me? I'm out before the deadline, Don't blame me for your recklessness, get out of my way!!" Then he stepped out of the door, and under his armpits are nine metal tablets...
When he reached the living room, he greeted Mila and Zara who came after hearing the noise, then asked Zara to prepare something warm to drink, after which he put the nine plates next to a chair and sat waiting for Zara with a smile, leaving Billy who was still standing glued to him and looking at him in like a hawk... waiting...
When Billy couldn't take it any more, he spoke, " Robin, you are my friend and you know how I feel about you, but GOD you are making me want to strangle you right now! "
"Haha, I think I have heard something like that before, sit down.. by my calculations we still have two days, right? That's enough for you to go to the new lands and there will even be a few more hours left to make whatever preparations you want and get back that army you sent... come enjoy some drink and say goodbye to the world as you know it.." Robin smiled as he spoke
"...Eh?" Billy was taken aback at what he was hearing, something that can *change the world* in Robin's perspective is definitely not something seen before!
he then moved and pulled a chair and sat face to face with Robin, then asked "What do you mean?"
Robin picked up one of the tablets and threw it at Billy, then said solemnly, " these are the tablets I asked you to make, I've used as a medium for some soul related patterns and a few seals that I've created over the past few months."
"Oh? Things related to the soul? What do you do exactly? .. and did you not find a name other than the talismans yet?" Billy flipped the board left and right
"...No, I haven't found a name yet… and let's get to the point!! When you accept a family's request to join us and receive the technique, you must request that ten elders of the highest standing among them put their hands on the board and pass their spiritual sense through it, then swear that *they will do everything they can to prevent the technique from leaking out of their family and they will remain loyal to the Burton family for... a thousand years*, okay? I think a thousand years is very appropriate... Ahem, *and if they break the oath, they should die*."
"...is that all?" Billy was surprised
"That's all," Robin replied with a smile
Billy remained silent for a few seconds, then asked hesitantly, " You have caused us to wait all that time for you coming out, and for us to make all those defensive preparations in case if you failed... and at the end, you came out... with this?"
Billy was simply not convinced, he was surprised by Robin's words that this had to do with *soul* when he first said it, but in the end, it all turned out to be a way to scare the masters of families!!
The smile on Robin's face vanished, and he grabbed another tablet and threw it with all his might into Billy's face, and shouted, "Understand, you hopeless idiot, It is not some trick, this is the real deal! If the one who took the oath breaks it he will really die!!"
Billy dodged the tablet that was about to smash his face, but he couldn't dodge the words that smashed his very being.
"W- what did you say?!" Billy couldn't digest what had just been said
"Listen carefully this time! These tablets have the ability to recognize and remember the imprints of the souls and will preserve a portion of a person's soul power within them, and will memorize the oath and keep it registered with their soul prints and soul power,
That imprint and small soul power will remain in constant contact with the master soul... and if the person breaks the terms of the oath, the pattern will automatically carry out the punishment... If someone swore that he would prevent the technique from leaking out but later allowed someone to do it or for example he knew that someone did it and decided to forget about it and do nothing...
the soul imprint will guide the soul power back to the master soul and enforce the punishment, he will be a dead man before he even knows it! "
