The Traitor: Relic War
Chp. 45 One-armed Gods of Death Who Give New Nicknames

"I heard about what happened this morning..." Arthur stood up, looking out the window of Zen's room, where Zen himself was continuing his acting pretending to be sick by sitting on the bed.

"Then, what are you going to do... Punishing me?... Do you think what I did was wrong?" Zen replied then turned his head towards Arthur with a cold look.

"You are in right and wrong at the same time..."

"Is so... I thought you'd say I was completely wrong..."

"Well, you can say you'd be guilty of me if what happened was now spread out in the city..."

"Hooo..."

"They would definitely think that the security of the palace was very weak, even before the academy had also gotten an attack from an outsider, laravel Wizards have also often urged that this kingdom shut down all access from outside kingdoms..."

"Then what are you going to do with itum... Are you going to obey the Laravel Wizards and make this Kingdom an isolated kingdom from the outside world...?"

"Either... I don't know what to do now, plus you're gonna do your job tonight... It will only weaken people's trust in the government... And it will eventually reopen the gap for the rebels to enter..." Arthur spoke in a tone that sounded so desperate, his face looking quite gloomy along with a sigh so long.

"Are you sure you won't delay your assignment until the Relic War is over..." Arthur then turned his back, giving a glaring look at Zen who did not seem to care about him at all.

"Of course I won't prolong my duties anymore, for now there will be a punishment and a warning for me when I postpone it..." Zen Reply.

"Punishment and warning of what you mean..."

"Of course, it's just that it feels really painful, like my head is going to explode at any moment..."

"so... Then I can't stop you... Even so I must keep the trust of the people afterwards..."

"Then you just need to make sure that the news doesn't spread to the public..." Say Zen who thinks of the simplest solution that comes to his head.

"If it were that easy..." Arthur answered and walked to the exit, for the day had gone and he had some tasks to complete.

"Well like I can give you a solution..." Zen spoke for a moment before Arthur left the room.

"What are you saying..." Arthur glanced back into Zen's room and watched Zen put up his Mask and gave the expression he usually showed to others.

"Said I might be able to give you a solution so that the people's trust still remains with the kingdom.."

"I can't believe I'm going to hear that from the person who's going to trigger this..."

"Well, there's at least a little bit of Zen left in me... So I'll help you... Think of it as a thank you because you're not blocking me..."

"Then let's hear... What solution would you give me..."

"certain... I'll tell you... Right now"

Night Days.

Terraria Kingdom's

The gentle whirring of the night wind now turned into a rain stub that began to shower the city with a rush, the wind was blowing very hard because it had now entered the late spring stage and was about to enter the winter.

The air that slowly becomes cold can be agitated using the flame of the combustion furnace in each house or mansion of the occupants of the kingdom.

Trying to fight the cold weather, now in a mansion one of the Nobles a party is going on, not warming their bodies with the temperature of the fire but using alcohol in large quantities is now a party held by two fighters is at its peak.

"Good night to the nobles...." Say a warrior with a shoulder-length hair cut in emo style while standing in the middle of a party room to the person attending the party he is entitled to.

"Tonight is the night that all of Duke Regard's power changes hands... So therefore let's spend the night partying until morning!!! Toast" he said as he raised a cup of glass filled with clear white liquor.

""Return"" answered everyone present as they lifted their glasses.

The party then continued, all dancing and laughing loosely, enjoying the dishes provided as well as teasing each other.

Then they arrive at the end of the party, everything that had been present filled the mansion hall gradually left with a face that looked so happy that the room was quiet and the servants of the mansion entered to clean the room.

"Kenmas... Why didn't any of them come when I invited them all..." Ask a teenage boy who wears Tuxedo-style clothing on an emo-haired teen.

"Come Saki... They must have been busy with Kanade's arrival... And he's not important at all..." Answer Kenma.

"That's right... I'll go back to my room now... My concubines must have been waiting... Bye bye..." He then gave the glass in his hand to the passing servant.

Then Saki walked towards the exit with slightly sluggish footsteps from drinking enough alcohol.

He turned to the right and then disappeared from Kenma's sight, which was still struggling with the drink in his hand.

Saki is now walking between a bright hallway decorated with various kinds of furniture such as vases and others where all of it is scattered to the corner of the mansion.

His eyes still looked fresh but his steps looked so unfazed, even so he was still able to control himself from falling.

Taps... Taps... Tapps...

Saki stopped a few meters before reaching the corner of the Corridor, her eyes catching the silhouette of a human walking in small steps where her face was covered by the hood she was wearing and only showed her blue eyes.

Saki who initially thought it was just a waiter was about to pass but soon realized that the person in front of her was now standing while carrying a kitchen knife that was sharp enough to look.

"Killer!!" He said for a moment and then backed away slowly.

"You're aware... As expected of a warrior like you" said Sosok Tadi who hid the kitchen knife behind his left arm.

"What do you want from me..." Saki did not look daunted, she did not know at all that the person in front of her was now Zen even though it was clear that from her arm only one was left.

"Your life..." Zen flipped his hand then threw the knife towards Saki who was still looking alert.

The slash of the blade that cut through the air Langung flew towards Saki's face.

Trankk's..

The knife that hit his arm earlier now fell when it hit Saki's skin as if it was colliding with an iron that was quite hard.

"Basic of siala-"

Bruack...

Zen emerged from the front of Saki so quickly that he kicked the side of his stomach with his right foot towards the ash wall.

"It's a pity but your strength only gets there..." Zen said then stepped on Saki's head which was sprawled on the wall with her right foot.

"Who are you really..." Ask in such a soft voice.

"If you want to know then make sure you see my face clearly for the last time..." Zen replied lowering his foot from Zen's head and raising his chin with his left foot.

He slightly bowed then looked at Saki's face that looked slightly sweaty and dusty, with his left hand he removed the hood he was wearing and showed her a face that was so familiar to Saki.

"Canade..."

"Well, thank God you know me so I don't have to introduce myself anymore..." Zen replied with a thin grin that he showed.

"Why are you doing this, have I ever done you wrong..." He asked with a slight tremble as the Zen aura changed instantly.

"You think how-"

"What's going on here... I heard a very noisy voice just now..." Another voice appeared from the opposite direction of Zen coming where the emo-haired-style Teen arrived not far near the two.

"Saki what's going on here..." Asked when watching his friend was in the corner by Zen.

"Kenma, Kannada... Kanade is a crazy person... He wants to kill me..." Shouts of Hysterical Saki who is still under Zen rule.

"Kanade what did you do to Saki huh??? Do you want to kill him you fucking asshole!!"

"Whispering!!" Zen turned his head then gave Kenma such a frightening look as if he wanted to intimidate her.

"Damn you [Fire Magic: Burn]" Kenma pointed her hand towards Zen then released a red-colored flame wave that looked quite small.

Zen casually summoned a Shadow Hand and Lifted Saki's body to protect her from Kenma's fire attack.

"Agha!!!!" Saki shouted as the blaze scorched her back.

"Saki!" Kenma ran over when Zen threw Saki Yang's burned body into the air and attempted to catch her before landing on the ground.

Crass...

Saki's body floated, though, with the condition of the stomach that was penetrated by a pointed object in pitch black blood spurted and dirty the face of Kenma who was then standing pecked with a pale face when he saw Kenma's body that no longer moved in directly in front of his face.

"Aghhhh!!!" He screamed as loud as he could, his stomach feeling nauseous and feeling like he was in a stir, while closing his mouth so as not to spit out what was inside his stomach Kenma walked backwards in great trembling.

Zen pulls back his pointy shadow and drops Saki's body which may still be alive but in a dying state.

"You... You're not human... You're not human..." The trembling voice along with the pale face of Kenma invited a pent-up soul of Zen to come out.

He let out a terrifying grin then his satisfied eyes looked so intense.

"Of course I'm not a gahahhaha man!!!" Shouted Zen very loudly.

"After doing all this I am no longer a stupid human being... I am the god of death who will take your life to the deepest hell..." Connect Zen then walk closer towards Kenma.

He walked past Saki's body which was still motionless but his breathing was still audible even though it was very slow.

Crass...

Before passing through Saki's body in full, Zen took the time to finish off Saki's life directly, he pointed the pointy shadow to the Heart of Saki and stabbed her repeatedly.

"Agh!!!" Kenma screamed again very loudly when Saki finally really stretched her life in the hands of Zen who was then seen smiling with satisfaction.

Kenma with trembling steps tried to stand up and then tried to run as hard as possible to call for help or hiding places from Zen.

But Zen did not let him go, with the shadow hand he controlled Zen managed to catch Kenma who tried to escape it and bring it to Zen's face.

"Where are you going, huh??"

"Ti's... No!!"

"Hey, I want to ask you why you hid your eyes behind your hair... Is there a reason?" Ask Zen.

"Maybe you want a nickname... Like a one-eyed warrior..."

"Then I'll let it go if I pry him out... That way you'll be remembered as a Mending Warrior with one eye... Heyey... Can... Can you?!!!" Asked Zen who was ready with a pointy shadow behind him.

"Am... Forgive me..."

"Bahaha!!! Die"

Crass.... Crass...

"Uaghhhhhh?!!!.......!!..!"
