The Degree
Uprising II

A few minutes before the incident, Sebastian was having long distance talks with people using a walkie talkie radio.

Sebastian was initially surprised that the man suddenly made a sudden call so he had to make an excuse to leave.

Though the time of the call should be determined, every morning. And that person should call him tomorrow as planned.

Sebastian is worried because a sudden call like this will only happen if something happens or there is a big change that cannot be ignored.

“Hallo, are you having trouble at a certain task?” Sebastian began to speak as he answered his call.

“Yes, there is a difficulty where I am difficult to lose.”

The answer given did seem strange and arrogant but in fact the answer was a password to make sure the person on the other side was that person.

“Are you lonely?” continued.

”Ya.” Sebastian replied as he looked around. “I'm lonely so no one will listen.”

“Good. Now we'll advance the plan faster. I've deployed an army and will arrive at twelve in the morning.”

Sebastian was stunned because of the sudden news. The acceleration of this plan is clearly driven by one thing that may be urgent.

“What's all of a sudden, Virgo? Why do you speed it up at a time like this?”

Sebastian is waiting for his answer. Perhaps there are disturbing signs that Virgo decided to do it early.

“There are various reasons but the main one is the presence of one small troubling group. I managed to track him down and even though they are only a small group but his whereabouts are very dangerous.”

Sebastian furrowed his brows. Supposedly if it was a small group Virgo would easily take care of it without advancing his plans. But because his actions are not like him, Sebastian concluded that this group is not a group that is easily destroyed.

“Are they really so dangerous that you want to speed up the plan? With the power of Rebellion it should be easy to defeat them.”

To some extent Virgo sounded a long sigh. He clearly felt the hardship made by this small group.

In fact, he had already sent out nearly a hundred people, but none of them had managed to do so. On the contrary, they are destroyed.

“They are made up of capable people and it is not easy to defeat them. Then, among them were some dangerous rookies. I tried to destroy them while tracking them but the truth is that the group was destroyed. Alexis who became the leader of the group was also seriously injured.”

Sebastian is surprised not to play because Alexis should have a great Degree so it is not easy to beat. Even Sebastian himself could not defeat him.

“Then what should I do? Are there any changes in the plan?”

“Only slightly. As much as possible you should have the Order killed or at least not allow him to participate in our attack. That's the guy we should be wary of.”

Sebastian thought a little before agreeing. Killing the Order was not an easy matter due to its unique ability. In addition, the Order is always vigilant even when he sleeps will not be easy to attack him.

“How? Can you do it? If you fail to do it all will be difficult because they will know that you are a traitor since two years ago.”

Sebastian initially only guides the Order, Mein and Erina as he is confident that the three will help him in his upcoming duties.

But at one time when Sebastian is separated from them he meets Virgo. He was conquered easily and eventually chose to join under his leadership.

The reason no one ever suspected that he was connected to Virgo was that Sebastian almost never made direct contact with him until Virgo finally built Rebellion one year ago.

Sebastian was just on the radio like he is today.

“Yes, things are going to get worse but this is the right situation to do it. Soon the Order will give a party speech.”

“At least, if it fails to kill him I am able to make him seriously injured and can not do anything.”

“So. Do it carefully. Then, you should be wary of Retsuji Arthur and Ray Morgan. Among many people are only the two of them whose actions I cannot predict.”

Sebastian knew from the beginning that Arthur was a dangerous man despite never showing his Degree. But the thing he didn't understand was another person.

“Ray Morgan, I know he's a smart and talented guy. But what makes it dangerous?”

What makes him not understand is that all this time Ray just looks like a smart ordinary person. Sebastian never suspected him and considered him a hard worker.

But if Virgo says that Ray is dangerous then that may be true.

“The guy may look quiet but he has hundreds of scenarios in his head. He probably already predicted that there would be chaos now.”

“Predicting? You mean he already knew that there would be an attack?”

“Not he already knew but he had already thought of such a possibility that would happen. I'm sure if he suspects a possible attack then he'll have a way out. Well, you don't have to worry about it. He probably won't act much until it affects our plan.”

“So.” Sebastian didn't go after him any further and stopped his call.

He then began to devise his plan and called out to his other troops that he smuggled in.

“Let's start.”

...****************...

The situation becomes chaotic instantly, Ray begins to gather with Terumi and Leo to stop the shooters.

“Who would have thought the traitor was our own! Sebastian, you're being rude!” Leo cursed furiously while delivering a powerful punch to one of the shooters.

Terumi herself acted the same and did not hesitate to kill a few people.

He did not want more victims to fall so as to throw off the naive nature and doubt in the murder.

His face was covered in blood and tears seemed to come out because Terumi still could not get used to it.

“Actually what is this ... what happened.” Ray muttered with a little annoyance.

Although he had expected that there would be this kind of attack and had a solution but still he was surprised by it.

Ray does not expect the guess that Sebastian is a traitor is true.

“I suspect because when I found out there was a traitor but Sebastian who was in charge of looking found nothing.”

Ray doesn't trust Sebastian very much. Ray himself believes there were at least a few intruders but Sebastian, the person in charge of confirming them, said no. Anyone would be suspicious of that.

In addition, the target is the order. It would be a big mental shake because the Order already considers Sebastian as an older brother— does not. He probably thought of him as a father.

I had to change my plan a little. The seed I spread to Erina so that she might suspect the Order of deceiving her would no longer work. Besides, Arthur won't be fooled anymore either. Her thought.

Of course, if you want to advance his plan, Ray will need a little time. Moreover, he could not confirm whether the person would move or not.

Ray sees the condition of the Order and Arthur who is facing Sebastian. The surprise Ray finds is to Mona who chants that Degree Sebastian is a magician.

“What is possible ... he can know someone's Degree by just looking at it?”
