....

In a huge mansion like building, a lot of people were running around huffing and puffing. Seemingly preparing for some kind of an event.

With the extra attention put into the preparations, one can deduce that it looked as though someone important is going to visit.

All of them had a strange symbol on the back of their robes, This was a Bare skull with wings entrapped inside a barb wired heart. These were obviously The iconic symbol of Rebelhearts. The recently formed group that has stood undisputed regardless and made all other shiver at their mere sight.

"Are all the preparation done. I don't want any mistakes" An Old bald geezer asked to the people overseeing all the work. This Old Geezer had a stern face and a rough body draped in a Red robe, With Rebelhearts symbol on the back. The interesting thing was the five wings on his symbol signifying his role as an Important Figure in the entirety of the group.

"Yes, Lord Armani. All things were completed yesterday, I am just cross checking everything to make sure all is upto the mark! " A beautiful blonde Female with 3 wings status bowed and reported to the old man. She was a newly advanced Magus and also a relative of the Old Man." If you don't mind me asking sir, who is this esteemed guests that will be visiting here? "

As the women asked inquiring about the mysterious guest. The old man named Armani flashed an strained smiled, probably due to lack of using those muscles and said, " You would surely be surprised to know who he is, Dear! He is your idol Nina"

The women gasped, as stars began to shine in her eyes, " Lo-Lord Leylin is coming here! He is visiting our branch. The Legendary 'Eternal Nightmare' Lord Leylin Farlier"

The women was literally screaming and jumping very much against the normal Orthodox decorum of a Magi. The old man had a wry smile on his face. This Old Man only has this Girl in the name of family and he has spoiled her rotten. Even though, since she has become a Acolyte he had established a form of difference between themselves and also hammered the way a Magus must act into her skull, She still sometimes gets too excited.

Honestly the one thing that put his heart at ease is her amazing talent and sheer ability in the Magi research.

' I really made a correct decision to join the Rebelhearts, Here her talents are appreciated and I am sure of her safety'

"Gran-..i mean. Lord Armani, I should go and make sure everything is upto the mark" Nina practically shouted and looked apologetic at her slip. After getting a nod from him, She beeline to her own room, Armani knew that she is going to doll up. He shook his head as he smiled but there were traces of worry in his eyes.

The worries in his eyes were obvious, since such a fearsome figure is coming here. The Eternal Nightmare Leylin Farlier is a very dangerous and powerful individual whose name has been reverberating throughout the South Coast.

'He is probably coming for the execution?' Armani thought, The Rebelhearts has grown too big in its short reign. Many schemers and spies from different organization has joined the group for ulterior and impure motives, and even went as far to create unrest. All of these people are timely arrested and apprehended and then passed to proper authority to deal with.

This branch of Rebelhearts is closest to the Headquarters in Secret plane and also nearest to Nightless City hence, it is also very important. In the end, a total of 43 Official Magi were send here to be executed, the sheer scale of this punishment is frightening. Armani was informed that Lord Leylin will be present tonight for execution.

....

A whole year has passed since Leylin came from the Ancient Spirit Slaying Sect. In this time, A lot of change has happened. For instance Ivy has joined the Saint Knight group and single handedly slaughter all of the Yale Family, Nyssa has come back making an appearance and Broke through to Rank 1 Magus regaining her previous beauty. In this short time, Leylin has accumulated a lot of information and data from other Organization through his spies. He also got his hands on a huge pile of different kinds of Spell, Steadily increasing his resources and building his database.

One thing that shook the whole of the South Coast were the actions of Leylin Farlier. He has killed and slaughter a huge chunk of present Magi Populace. Many Families went extinct. He has killed all those who had a beef with him, the slaughter went on to decimate and devastate changing whole of the paradigm of Magi Families. He especially took care of Botelli Family after getting their meditation techniques.

Although his actions have offended both Dark and Light Magi organization, in contrast to the peoples he had killed and the person who backs him up. They decided to keep mum for now, settling at the benefits provided by them.

The most remarkable thing was when he attended the Auction House hosted by Iron Crown.

This Iron Crown was a power that had been formed from wandering Magi, numerous wandering Magi grouped together, took charge of the nearby domains, and even controlled a middle-scaled secret plane!

Even though the middle-scaled secret plane could not be compared with the Four Seasons Garden's large scaled secret plane, it was still extremely rare and precious!

The existence of the Iron Crown was like a torch in the dark; it attracted the various wandering Magi and acolytes from the various lands of the south coast and constantly expanded.

He went there in disguise to attend the Trading Event hosted by them. He bought all those items that suit his fancy flaunting his immense wealth. He also bought the alchemy book from abyss.

In reality, Leylin knew that this trading event is just a set up to trap Alistair, the Rank 2 Magi who stole the resources from Secret plane all while killing his companions.

The item they used to lure him was - Extract of a Wisdom Tree, The ancient Wisdom Trees have the intelligence of an enlightened Magus, and its extract has the effect of raising one's spiritual force. When used with other treasures to break through, it is extremely effective.

Actually, Leylin doesn't really needed this thing to breakthrough he can steadily accumulate but that item along with the wooden cup made from the bark of the Wisdom Tree that Alistair stole could shorten his time to breakthrough by a huge margin.

The reason he simply didn't took it away from him before or just acquire it from the Secret plane, is because he wanted both of these items and since he was sure where they will come together, why bother deviating? He also had another motive for this move.
