In the city hall, the city leader was there, and he was sweating like a fountain. His head was red and he could not sit properly, he was also eating his fingernails. This was the real fear for a cultivator, to meet a cultivator that is much stronger than you.
"Gera, come here!" The city leader shout and an old man came in slowly. He was dressed like a butler and seemed very old.
"Yes, master. How can I help you?"
"Call all the subleaders and prepare my luggage. I will leave this place soon, use all the spatial rings we have and store everything, I will never come back. Prepare the luggage of my wife and son too, they should leave before me. Do this all with supreme secrecy, if someone dares to ask something, then kill him and do not anyone to know."
The old butler was surprised and shocked at the same time, he did not understand what happened. But as the butler of this family, he knew all the secrets of the city leader and he was aware about all his activities. If the city leader ordered something like this, then the something really bad happened.
"Yes sir, everything will be prepared as soon as possible." The old butler left the office without asking, his job as butler was only to do what the master says.
Soon after that, the office of the sect leader was filled with a few people, all together they were 5 in total.
"Leader! What are you thinking about to call us here? If somebody knows about us gathering in your office, everything will be in danger." One of them shout right after entering the office.
"He is right, this is too risking, if not for your old butler, I would not dare to come." A second one said.
The other three did not say anything, but they nodded to what the others said. They knew their leader the best, he always was very well prepared and meticulous, they had a special meeting place and underground offices, but this was the first time to come to the center of the city and gather there.
"We have big problems, a problem that cannot be solved by our normal methods."
Said the city leader slowly.
"Does it have something to do with the orphans, we are really short on worker. The customers are really upset about not finding enough information at us."
"Yes, the only things we can offer are the special services and we even are short on workers too. We cannot keep our guaranteed quality of children if this situation cannot be solved."
Suddenly the city leader stood up and slapped the two of them and he was really mad. He was a 5th star magicians, so he also had a quite strong palm, for the two he slapped, both were 3rd star magicians too and they could not defend from his slap.
"Do you know what our problem is? Those children you are talking about are our problems. I have 12 hours to bring all the orphans to the academy, if not we all will die miserably." The city leader shout angered, he wanted to kill them all on the spot and wipe them from the earth, so that anyone can find that they were his accomplices, but they were the only that knew were the children were.
"Why did you slap them? What can make you so nervous? The principal of that forgotten academy is only a 5th star knight, if we fight together, it will be easy to make her surrender and give the children back to us." A middle-aged man with a ferocious look said, he was wearing a bloodred light armor and looked very dangerous.
"What if I say that she can wipe us from the surface of the earth with only a single finger?"
"Are saying that she is a 6th star knight, but even so you should not be that nervous. We can simply escape, and she would not be able to catch us. She is not god at the end of the day."
"Think about what you said and now instead of a 6th star knight, you put a 7th star knight instead." The city leader said.
Suddenly the room went silent and everyone was looking at each other, they knew now what their leader meant. The situation was now more complicated, and they knew if they did only a wrong step, they would not even know how they died.
Suddenly they began to look around and outside to see if someone was spying at them.
"You should have said that earlier, do you want to kill us all with you. Why did you call us if you already knew all this." Said one of them.
"if she finds out who we are, then we will die."
"Do not worry, she gave us an ultimatum, if we bring all the rest of the children to the academy in 12 hours, then she will let us go. She also already knew who we are, therefore, I do not care if we meet her or somewhere else."
"I think you know what you should do now, am I right?" Asked the city leader after a few moments.
This was a serious situation and also the end of their organization, but what could they do. Nobody wanted to die, and they were not stupid to sacrifice their lives for this organization. They already gathered a huge fortune over the past years, and they would leave this city too. Living in a city with a 7th star knight, was only good if you were a good person and did not have any enmity with the 7th star knight. They all knew they were culprits, so after giving back those children, they will disappear from this place. If they did not, then the 7th star knight can catch them and kill them in an instant.
Then they left in a hurry.
