In fact with the exception of Old Five who had so bad premonition about this, the others were clearly taking these words as just a joke.
But when those five words sounded through Uncle Satoru's vocal cords the whole five mbers of the Council turned dead silent.
They had thought that Eric's words would be so kind of empty threat towards them, but in fact, the threat was real, and more than real.
Each of those 5 words, were in a way connected to their real-life identities, sothing that only the five and their families knew about.
They were the columns of the country, they were the ones who kept it safe and undisturbed, and they were the atomic bombs that kept the outsiders out of their country.
They would only act when the country was on its last straits, and only when their borders or identity was threatened, otherwise they were deed to die unknown and unrecognized.
No one was supposed to know of their identities, and especially the foreign countries since they would beco easy targets to get rid of, and the country would lose its pillars.
It wasn't that they weren't strong enough to protect themselves, and the country, but surely they wouldn't be able to escape poisoning or so kind of other attempts.
They would have to live their lives in 24/24 hours of observation and security which was clearly a bother to anyone.
Their identities were considered top secret, and only their masters knew about their nas, as they all died officially the mont they beca a candidate to the Council.
But right now their identities were in danger, as soone outside the council, soone who shouldn't have the least idea about their identities already knew about it.
It was clear that comncing a fight with Eric at this mont was a stupid idea, especially when they had no idea of what was his true background, and persona.
While he had taken the identity of Eric Jade he probably wasn't the real Eric Jade. No matter how one looked at it, a loser like Eric, who had all his life docunted couldn't have that background.
This fact though raised even more doubts about his real identity and the fact that he was able to take other people's appearance or take control over their bodies.
No matter how they looked at it the situation was a real ss right now, and Eric was in the dark, while they were completely naked in front of him.
For all of the above reasons they were on the sa line of thought, they didn't dare to act against Eric at the mont, so the chairwoman said in a complicated sigh,
"Sigh~! Make the necessary preparations to clean his figure, and let this matter sink. We will honor the deal we have until a second notice.
Be careful to watch any of his movents, and deeply check on his identity and attitude. At the sa ti try to place so of our people by his side.
We need to know more about this kid!"
Uncle Satoru acknowledged his orders, and left the room, he understood that those words were sothing that no one should know about so he decided to forget about them.
What was important right now was the fact that a war with Eric and whoever was behind him, was avoided, and he would have so more ti to get prepared for it.
He understood sothing though, the situation was clearly delicate, and he couldn't afford to stay low anymore and let everything happen.
He needed to make his own preparations regarding what was to co, and he seriously needed to consider the offers coming his way.
He didn't know why but Eric was the only person he didn't want as an enemy, that kid was too mysterious and possessed too much information.
Anyway right now he didn't have ti to think about this, as there was a really complicated situation that needed to be cleared out, and he had also to notify Eric of the decision.
When he got notified of the decision Eric had just completed another session of ditation and cultivation according to the manual he had.
Even though what he had was just a part of it, his achievents could be said to be fairly good. He had laid down the basses of the highways that the Qi would pass through, as he now had 14 droplets.
His system was working as usual, as he continued his training, and collected Experience points through training, while Kirigaya was collecting SP points for him these days.
Looking at the situation he was in, Eric understood the importance of a safe house, but more importantly of a safe base.
He needed to proceed as quickly as he possibly could with the developnt and security of the Senkaku Islands.
Of course, the best way to guarantee the safety and protection of his islands was clearly whatever he could find through his system.
He had been looking hard for a defensive barrier, but there was nothing he could find at the mont, or to be more exact there was nothing that got into his eye.
Firstly they were overly expensive, and secondly, most of them didn't give him enough safety, as none of those would be able to protect his base from a missile attack at the least.
His requirents were high of course he knew that, but these were the bare minimum he needed in the situation he was in. He needed high protection.
Placing all these thoughts to the back of his head he returned to reading the newspapers, and everything he could on the situation in Japan, and all over Earth.
He wanted to be updated, and also understand better the current situation worldwide, and also the standing of each power.
If he wanted to survive in the situation he was currently in he needed to know which streams to follow, and who to befriend.
The most urgent places he needed to befriend first were clearly China, and Taiwan, only by befriending them, and creating a peaceful environnt could his Senkaku Islands develop.
It took around 1 full week for Uncle Satoru and the governnt to completely clear Eric's na, and also guarantee his safety.
But Eric could finally get out of his bunker, even though he found a new use of the Escape Talismans, they could be signed to a particular location.
aning that Eric could use one particular Escape Talisman to record his current coordinates, and he would be able to return here as long as he used it in a 50 kiloters radius surrounding this place.
Once he did that, the Escape Talisman could be used only to co to this place and was useless if he wasn't in the surroundings.
Still, the benefit was more important to him, as he couldn't use the secret passage all the ti, and risk of it being found.
For that reason even now that he was about to get out, he was using an Escape Talisman and wasn't going out of the secret passage door.
Taking out one of the beads, and registering this location into it, Eric took another one and used it to escape the safe bunker.
While he spent most of the ti ditating, cultivating and reading inside the safe base, he still found the ti to be adjourned with everything that happened outside.
His connection to the outside world wasn't cut even for a single mont, as his people were working hard to complete his assignnts.
First things first he needed blood, and SP points at the mont, so it was ti for the vigilante to return once more, and this ti to make a big haul.
Second on his list was the recruitnt that Shiro was making to start his foundation, as there were a few nas that he had personally handed over to him.
Shiro had done his job perfectly and he had been able to recruit more than 60% of that list until now, as he still had 10% to go through.
But that wasn't all, besides them he had also recruited more than 30 young n of ages from 18 to 30 that were in good physical shape, and 50 kids less than 18, that were ready to go training and work for him.
This was a good figure to start with, as he imdiately instructed Shiro to prepare them for travel, as really soon they would be sent to the Senkaku Islands.
Master Ito on his side had already bought the TV channel, the newspaper, and three famous bloggers online. But since he didn't understand much from the business, he had also hired a CEO for them.
Akira and Mina had been clearly training inside while keeping an eye on Tina who looked even angrier and frustrated with each passing day.
They had also signed in to different fighting courses and were already on the way to train their basics, of course, they had forgotten about their previous profession.
Takeshiba Aika on the other hand had started to involve more with the family business and create a large network of girls from the other families, to learn more about what was happening.
Of course, she didn't mind if any of the girls she had recruited in her circle ended up in Eric's bed, as long as he still had her in his heart she was okay with it.
She didn't understand how she had gotten to this point, but it wasn't that she regretted it. In fact, she was prepared to help Eric with her mother and big sister, let alone the outside girls.
Everything seed to be moving according to his plan, but he was surprised to look that he also had a ssage from Ginka.
Eric had almost totally forgotten about this fatso, and his side business…
