Chapter 2512
Lord Protector Novel
Ignoring the members of Archfiends glaring at him, Megahead strutted into Apollyon's luxurious cabin and surveyed the space.
âNot bad at all, Apollyon. You sure know how to enjoy yourself. A Centurion would probably get the same treatment as you, huh?â
âEnough. Let's get to the point,â Apollyon replied. âWhy do you want to initiate the alliance agreement?
What trouble have you gotten yourself into?â
Megahead sighed. âSomeone has robbed my position as Decanus.â
Needless to say, Apollyon had his doubts. âThat shouldn't be the case, though. The ones most capable of taking over your position are Hawkeye and Phagos, but they're also the most loyal to you. Who could've done something so audacious?â
âIt's a new guy. He came to Theos Island only yesterday.â
Not at all believing what he had just heard, Apollyon immediately burst into laughter. âAre you serious?
A guy who just got onto Theos Island yesterday managed to steal your Decanus position? Come on.
You're joking, aren't you? Abilities aside, how could he have collected twenty drops of spiritual water in just two days? That's impossible!â
âDo you think that's something I'd joke about?â Megahead replied gloomily. âHe did collect twenty drops of spiritual water in two days, and he's also powerful. Even if my entire Contubernium went up against him, I doubt we'd have a high chance of winning. In short, this guy is terrifying. He's undeniably a threat to all Contubernia in the outer district, including the Archfiends. That's why I have no choice but to initiate the alliance agreement. After all, it's better to nip the problem in the bud, isn't it?â
Alas, even after hearing all that, Apollyon still had his doubts. âTwenty drops of spiritual water in two days? Are you absolutely sure it's spiritual water and not normal dew drops?â
âMy goodness, Apollyon, why do you have so little faith in me? Do you think I'd mistake dew for spiritual water?â
After realizing that Megahead was most likely telling the truth, Apollyon got visibly excited.
âThe new guy's a real gem! At the rate he's collecting spiritual water, I might have a chance at becoming a Legatus or even a Camp Master! Yes, I must have him! Our alliance officially starts now. I'll get the other Decani over immediately.â
âThank you for your help, Apollyon,â Megahead exclaimed.
After nodding in response, Apollyon hurriedly left, only to return half an hour later with eight other people in tow.
Like Apollyon and Megahead, the eight individuals were Decani of their respective Contubernia.
As far as the outer district was concerned, the ten of them were the strongest Contubernia and had all signed the alliance agreement a while back.
At that moment, however, the eight Decani were both surprised and curious.
One thing was for sureâsomething big must have happened for the alliance agreement to take effect.
After all, it had been years since the agreement was in place, yet no one had needed to initiate it until now.
As soon as everyone entered Apollyon's residence, Megahead closed the doors and windows before turning to his audience with an enigmatic expression.
âI'm sure everyone must be wondering what has put our alliance agreement into effect.â
With that, everyone started discussing among themselves. âYes. What's so serious that we have to resort to this?â
âThe outer district has been pretty peaceful recently. I don't think there's any commotion.â
âHurry up and tell us, will you? We shouldn't execute this agreement if it's not a serious matter.â
Megahead once again sighed. âSomeone has robbed my position as Decanus.â
Not knowing whether to laugh or cry, the other Decani exchanged bewildered glances.
âIs that it? Are you initiating the alliance agreement so we can help get your position back?â
âDon't be daft. If the other party is strong enough to take over your position, they have every right to remain in power.â
âIf your only reason is for us to help you get reinstated as Decanus, you can forget about it. There's no way we'll agree to that.â
