World Domination System

With thoughts of those legions of Peak Heroes, the future seemed grim and bleak, but one by one, each sovereign looked up at the one in front of them, and seeing his face, they suddenly regained all of the hope they had almost completely lost.

Just like his tone, his eyes were filled with the flames of fury, and for a second, they seemed so strong as to be able to burn the Church all by themselves.

Just a few seconds spent recalling everything he had done so far was enough for them to know that he would definitely pull out a plan to save them this time, too, and with that thought, they were reminded of the oath they had just spoken, and together, each of the sovereigns looked at each other and found strength in their company.

Turning around and seeing that they all looked determined, Daneel gave a curt nod and said, "Originally, I was going to wine and dine with you all along with the continent below. However, this news changes everything: a lot of things need to be discussed, and this is not the place to do so. I wanted to spend some time by myself, too, to take care of a few important things, but even that has to be temporarily delayed. I must go to the Order, right now. They need to know this, and I do not trust any line of communication more than my own mouth. Do not follow me, right now - instead, head to the Order’s headquarters, where you will be able to tune into the meeting soon, if all goes as planned. I’ll see you all soon to elaborate on what I was saying before."

With that, without giving any chance for them to speak, Daneel disappeared, and for a few seconds, all of the sovereigns could not help but continue to stare at the spot where he had been standing.

At the same moment he disappeared, a copy of him came on the throne, along with copies of all of them, and they all looked like they were talking and laughing merrily while partaking of the food and wine that was also present.

From where they were, it was obvious that it was all an illusion meant to show the people that everything was alright.

Seeing that they were not required to keep it going, the sovereigns moved to obey Daneel’s instructions, and at the same time, Daneel had almost reached his destination.

The cavern where all of the Peak Heroes had gathered was not present near the Order’s headquarters, due to the prerequisite that such an important place should be concealed in an even better way than the Headquarters, so that it could be used as a secret bunker, if needed.

As the right-hand man of the current Overseer, he, of course, knew where it was, so a second later, he was already at an inconspicuous patch of land to the east of Angaria, which

hid the teleportation information that would take him to the cavern below.

There, he stopped, as he was unsure what path to take to get inside. Should he contact the Head to let him in? Should he just barge in, to reinforce the words that he had sent during the time when he had been trapped in the Artefact?

The answer was obvious, and without further thought, Daneel said, "Let’s kick in the front door, shall we?"

[Assessing security protocols of location marked as Priority - 1 location by the Order. Multiple layers of security found. Looking for vulnerability. Vulnerability found in oldest formation, which has not been renewed properly over the last 100 years due to the knowledge regarding it getting too complex for present day formation masters. Using brute force technique to force through the rest of the layers of formations. Using keys already present which were given on account of host being the confidant of the Overseer of the Order to break through the rest. Entrance has been unlocked. Standing by to initiative teleportation.]

Hearing all this, Daneel got a happy smile which he realized had not graced his face for a long time, as it felt like it had been years since the system had last managed to surprise him.

The smile only lasted for a moment, as the knowledge of the news he was bearing and the ramifications of what it meant for his master came back to the forefront of his mind.

Still, focusing on the task at hand, Daneel opened his mouth to give the order to the system, but at the last moment, getting a sudden thought, he said, "Initiate the teleportation, but cloak me so that none of the Heroes see me. Is that possible?"

[Affirmative. Host is currently in the form of a Godnet activated clone whose complexity far surpasses most formations active on Angaria at this time. Cloaking would have been impossible if host’s real body was being teleported, but as it is only the smallest fragment of Energy which is being activated remotely by the hidden transmission of the Godnet, an advanced concealment spell can be used, which has been created by combining multiple peak Hero-level spells from the age of the Empire using the newly unlocked Automatic Development module. Creation of spell is complete. Standing by to initiate.]

Hearing this, the anticipation to sit down with the system once again shot up, as creating a spell that could hoodwink so many peak Heroes at once was no simple thing, and the fact that the system had been able to do so in barely a second was just... overpowered.

Sadly, he had no choice but to shove it aside and proceed, with the promise that that would be the first thing he would do as soon as he was done talking to the Heroes of Angaria.
