Child of Destiny - Chapter 1828
Chapter 1828: The Sky Is Changing
……
While the younger generation was busy with all the matters within the game, those in the older generations were currently dealing with serious matters as well.
“How is it?” asked Samuel right after Nathan entered his room.
“Everything is going well. We can proceed according to the plan, Father,” replied Nathan.
“As for your investigations about those matters?” asked Samuel once again while maintaining his solemn expression.
Nathan paused for a moment, seemingly trying to suppress the rage within him, before replying. “We have discovered that Big Brother has found something from his last mission, but we don’t know what exactly it is.”
“It is one of the reasons why those guys from the Black Serpent Mafia have chosen to make a move at us aside from fully launching that attempt to attack the World Research Center and Magic Ace Academy.”
“Their attempt to abduct and steal the data from the research center is also something they did out of convince.”
“They have launched multiple operations at once to confuse everyone, but their main target is still Professor Henry and his research projects, particularly the Black Heart Project.”
He paused for a moment before continuing. “We suspect that whatever Big Brother has found during his last mission, it is quite related to one of those projects.”
“Whatever they are planning, there is a high chance that it concerns that ‘place’,” added Nathan solemnly, almost making an ugly expression.
He then took another pause, waiting for Samuel to nod, before continuing. “As for the upcoming operations, we have identified what the Black Serpent Mafia is trying to do during the so-called trade.”
“According to the moles that we have planted inside, the Black Serpent Mafia seemed to have gotten their hands on an unusual body that is neither artificial nor naturally formed. It is a strange body made of demonic aura and such.”
“They have also taken Jan Mateo during that time.”
“Based on the materials that they have, there is a high chance that what Adam has told us before leaving is true.”

“Those lunatics are most likely trying to do ‘that’ ritual once again. Moreover, they have most likely found a way to increase the chances of success, giving them enough confidence.”
“Whatever they are ‘trading’, it is something of utmost importance to them. It is most likely one of the main ‘ingredients’ that they required for the ritual.”
Samuel kept his silence and only listened to Nathan until the latter finished his report. He was quiet for quite a while, seemingly thinking about something.
He then nodded his head and spoke. “I understand. You can proceed according to the plan.”
“Your team will deal with the main force while the little ones look for a way to retrieve whatever that thing is. But if they can’t get it, then they can just destroy it instead.”
“Make your thorough preparations. We will move according to schedule,” he paused for a moment as he tapped his finger on the table before continuing. “You can leave the troublesome side to us, Old People. We will make sure that no one will interfere with your operation.”
“I have already talked with the other old guys, and they have agreed with the plan. You don’t have to worry about the World Government about this matter. We will make sure that they can’t move this time.”
“Those at the throne are doing suspicious things recently. I don’t know if they have some dealings with the Black Serpent Mafia or other organizations. But if they want to act wantonly, then they have to brace themselves to face the wrath of the council,” he sneered before dismissing Nathan.
After watching Nathan live, Samuel leaned his back on the chair somewhat powerlessly before sighing. He looked at the ceiling for quite a while before clenching his fists.
“I will not let your death be in vain. I promise you that those bastards that will accompany you in the underworld will be as many as possible,” he mumbled before closing his eyes, suppressing the overwhelming rage within him.
…
Outside, Nathan met with Scar, who was already waiting for him for quite a while.
Nathan looked at the latter before asking. “Are you sure about this? Your tribe has never involved itself in the matters of the outside world. If you get involved in this matter, those annoying sects and such will also get restless.”
Hearing that, Scar sneered as if he were not afraid. He then answered with a serious tone. “Our tribe has an iron policy to protect the little cubs as much as possible to ensure the future of the tribe.”
“Even if you did not seek our tribe’s assistance, we will still make our move, especially when the brat has inherited the greatest legacy of our great ancestors.”
“This much is nothing. If not for the international agreement signed by the hundred sects and tribes, then the Matriarch has most likely led an army to destroy those dark organizations right now.”
Nathan shook his head while smiling bitterly when he heard those words. Such a personality was truly worthy of a Warrior’s Tribe.
He then waved his hand as he said. “Don’t worry. Given the preparations that we have, you guys may not even have the chance to show up when that time comes.”
Scar wanted to say something, but he swallowed it back after recalling the number of experts that the Springfield Family had invited for this huge operation and the number of families and organizations involved.
He then nodded his head before adding. “What’s left right now are those kids.”
There was a solemn expression on his face as he continued. “They may have progressed quite well, but I still think that they are far from being enough to get involved in such a huge operation.”
“There is no need to question their talent and experience since I know that your family has trained them throughout the years. But they are still too green for an operation of this scale and level.”
He was frowning quite deeply as he fully understood the risks of this operation.
For the sake of getting the Black Serpent Mafia, the Springfield Family had never held back in all their assaults.
Given the scale of this operation, the Springfields couldn’t neglect anything, especially when their heir and heiress were involved.
There were also the other young masters and young princesses from other aristocratic families. If a single mistake occurred somewhere and led to a serious accident, then the consequences would be great even for the Springfield Family.
Seeing such a concern on the face of such a great warrior, Nathan could not help but smirk. “I think you are underestimating those brats a little too much, particularly Shin.”
“That brat is more than what his achievements in mentalism can show. That brat’s mind his much sharper than anyone else. Other than my niece and that little wanderer, I have never seen anyone as sharp as him when doing such missions.”
“Don’t worry about them too much. So long as the other factors are fended off right, then they will be able to handle themselves well.”
“Moreover, they are not the only ones who will get involved in this. The Magic Ace Academy will be taking this operation seriously as a payback for those bastards.”
Nathan paused for a moment as he smiled mysteriously. “Moreover, my nephew and yours are not that bad as well. Adding their great synergy with one another, their combined strength is nothing you can underestimate.”
“You have seen it as well. Their understanding of each other far surpassed that of brothers,” he added with full seriousness.
Hearing that, Scar could not help but nod his head. He had seen how those three ‘played around’ previously. If that understanding was converted into teamwork, then he had to admit the kids could take on even those experts at the half-step Domain Realm.
Adding the individual strength, top legacies, and absurd talents of those three, dealing with those at the initial paces of the Domain Stage Experts could also be possible.
With a sigh, Scar laughed bitterly before looking at the starry sky outside the terrace. “The younger generation is truly to be feared.”
Nathan smiled when he heard that. “Are we the same when we are young? Giving such a feeling to our seniors and elders.”
“But that doesn’t mean that we are about to be overtaken that easily,” he added as he also looked at the starry sky, recalling those times when they were also young and impulsive.
Even though he could not say that he also missed those times, he had to admit that he reminisced about the past from time to time, especially when they had nothing to be afraid of and floated like a free spirit.
After falling in silence for quite a while, Scar suddenly said with full solemnness. “The sky is changing.”
Nathan, who fully understood what the other party meant, nodded his head with full seriousness.
