ONE WEEK LATER
Kahn and the group had gone back to their old lives as the mbers of Misthios guild while the Zivot Empire was still in an uproar regarding the murder of princess Eleanor.
This was a matter of the prestige and authority of the High Elf class but so far, they were only able to find other empire's involvent and not anything else.
Inside the Trisgistus Alchemy Company, Kahn in his Legolas persona ca to et Aragorn in his Edmund form.
"Since you're going to continue hiding for the ti being, do what you've been doing.
I don't want to risk any form of suspicion arising that could reveal the truth." he spoke in a demanding tone.
What Legolas ant by these words was that Edmund should maintain his facade in front of the world, resulting in him teaching rlin and Armin alchemy as per their previous arrangent before everything beca so chaotic.
----------------
On the sa night, Kahn held a eting with his subordinates to discuss an important matter.
"It's ti for to go." he spoke in a solemn tone.
Everyone including Oga and Rudra were shocked as soon as they heard these words.
"Go where?" asked Ceril in a curious voice.
"There was a secret oath made between and Vildred when we perford the spell called Contract of Familiarity.
That deal entails aiding Vildred to regain his forr rank and in return, he has to do sothing for as well.
I cannot explain it to any of you but know that I too have no other choice." he said in a somber tone.
"Due to the contract, Vildred and I cannot be farther from each other than 100 kiloters or both of us will die. Thus, staying in Zivot Empire is no longer possible for ." he iterated and gazes around the group.
"So when do we leave?" asked Blackwall in a stern voice.
"Not us. Just ." replied Kahn.
"But master, why can't we co?" inquired Ronin with a dejected countenance.
To his query, Kahn leaned back on his chair and replied.
"Because what we set up in the Verlassen fiefdom and Zivot Empire as the Misthios guild is the best foundation we needed.
With what we have at our disposal, there's no need to go to a different place and start from scratch.
Besides, all of you must stay in Sparta and protect our guild so that there won't be any need for resources for any of you from now on." Kahn gave his reasoning.
"As for … I have Rathnaar's core.
I will be able to absorb it steadily from now on and break through higher saint rank as ti passes by." he said with a cheerful smile.
However, all the subordinates only showed an expression of reluctance.
"Don't think of it like I'm abandoning you guys. This is also important for us.
If all of you disappeared with , it will bring more trouble and it will lead to my identity getting revealed to the empire and people coming after .
Besides, I'm still leaving 7 of my doppelgangers here.
One will act as Legolas, 5 as Zeus and the last one as rlin.
And now that I can create 5 more doppelgangers, I'm not lacking in options.
Know that all of them are just without my divine abilities and blessings even if they're weak. So in a way, I'll still be with all of you.
So from now on… all of you need to power up steadily with ti and when I return or call for you, you need to be much stronger than you already are." he revealed his true intentions.
"But master… what if you get in trouble that you can't handle on your own?" asked Jugram.
"Well, I have far more life-saving skills than any of you. Besides, even if I don't have any of your bloodline-specific abilities or domains… I still possess 90% of all of your skills.
Besides, it's not like anyone below 7th stage saint can kill now and with Vildred around, we can even fight with one easily by working together." he explained why he was confident.
"Where are you going?" asked Oliver, revealing an incredulous expression.
Kahn then told them their next destination.
"But master… it's the sa empire we used to put the bla of the princess' murder." spoke Armin, his eyes full of anxiousness.
"Well, it is one of the two empires that cos between our final destination. So I can't skip going there even if I want to." he said in a carefree tone.
This ti… It wasn't like he was running away because he was forced to. Rather, he was already aware when he made the contract with Vildred inside the Immortal Dungeon to protect their lives.
This deal with Vildred when they were in a pinch, was sothing that was bound to make him strong beyond asure in the future.
Sothing Kahn desperately needed to survive in this world given how the mysterious group of people that even an 8th stage saint couldn't afford to fight were coming after him.
Besides, the Zivot Empire had already used him as a scapegoat, putting the bla of killing the Hero's Party mbers.
Kahn wasn't an oblivious fool to think that those people wouldn't naturally co here one day.
He simply couldn't take that risk because not only he but 20 thousand people who worked for his guild would also get their lives jeopardized.
If sothing happened to his subordinates, the system would naturally inform him and he could revive them later anyway. This would also act as a beacon to let him know that his identity was exposed.
So in simple words, this ti he was leaving to beco much stronger than he was.
The Next Morning.
Using various barriers and spells cast by Vildred, Kahn and the Dragon Emperor departed while leaving everything behind.
Marking the end of Kahn's ti in the Elven Empire.
----------------
1 Day Later.
Inside a black castle, a figure of a silver-haired individual, clad in black and green armor while ditating in a secret chamber ca into sight.
Suddenly, he opened his blood-red glowing eyes and spoke in an elated voice.
"So I finally found you… Kahn."
