On the way back to the Angel Guild headquarters, Irving tried to get the Knowledge Fairy to reveal the reasons behind the increasing volatility of power. However, the Knowledge Fairy did not budge and continued to withhold any information from Irving.
When they arrived at the Angel Guild headquarters, Irving finally asked, "What kind of price do you want to pay? I really want to know the answer to this question. If the price is sothing I can afford, I will be willing to pay it."
Despite Irving's earnest inquiry, the Knowledge Fairy's attitude remained unchanged. "The ti is not right. You cannot know this information yet. No matter what price you offer, I will not tell you," she replied.
After saying this, the Knowledge Fairy quickly returned to the deepest part of the Angel Guild headquarters, into the warehouse. Irving felt quite helpless at her response.
At that mont, Anna approached Irving. "You finally returned. Did everything go smoothly? Did you encounter any other troubles?" Anna asked with concern.
Irving smiled and shook his head. "I didn't encounter any trouble. The Knowledge Fairy has returned to the deepest part of the Angel Guild warehouse. The real world has returned to peace."
Although Irving answered Anna's questions with a smile, she could still sense his anxiety. "You're not telling the truth. You're just pretending to be relaxed, but your emotions should be quite worried right now. What exactly happened?"
Faced with Anna's probing, Irving could only share what had transpired between him and the Knowledge Fairy. After hearing Irving's account, Anna responded angrily. "The Knowledge Fairy shouldn't behave this way! If he wants to cooperate with us, he needs to share the information that we care about!"
After finishing her statent, Anna intended to go directly to the deepest part of the Angel Guild warehouse. It seed she wanted to confront the Knowledge Fairy.
Irving quickly grabbed Anna. "Don't be so impulsive. If we force the Knowledge Fairy, there's a good chance he will beco our enemy. Our current enemies are already strong enough; we cannot afford to create more enemies."
Irving's words indeed made a lot of sense. Anna's expression turned slightly hesitant as she looked back at Irving and asked, "So, are we just going to do nothing?"
"Of course not! Since we have learned from the Knowledge Fairy that various powers are becoming increasingly chaotic, we should collect relevant clues. After all, each of us possesses at least one type of power, and we can sense this power. This gives us the opportunity to uncover the reasons behind its growing volatility."
Irving's words finally cald Anna down. A slightly embarrassed smile appeared on her face. "I'm really sorry; I was a bit impulsive."
"You don't need to apologize. In fact, I was quite anxious at the beginning as well. I was able to calm down because I took so ti to think carefully on the way back. I believe you can also find your calm after so reflection," Irving reassured her. He certainly wouldn't bla Anna. Her reaction showed that she genuinely cared about him.
"Let's each handle our own matters. The Angel Guild must have a lot of things for you to take care of, right? You shouldn't stay here with any longer. I will also head to the Green Ivy Company to check on Jas," Irving said as he chose to bid Anna farewell.
Anna indeed had many responsibilities to manage. With Aron gone, all the tasks had fallen solely on her shoulders. Although Nick had recently started trying to handle various matters within the Angel Guild, he still lacked experience and was quite slow in dealing with things. The main pressure was still on Anna.
"I agree. I do have a lot of things to take care of," Anna replied. After saying this, she turned and left.
Irving quickly made his way to the Green Ivy Company. Upon arriving, he found that Jas was in his office at the headquarters, raging with fury. Even through several walls, Irving could hear Jas's angry shouts.
"Are you all a bunch of useless fools? I already told you to take my tasks seriously! But you clearly didn't listen at all!"
As Irving reached the door to Jas's conference room, he heard Jas's roar once more. He hesitated, unsure if he should knock.
Just then, the conference room door suddenly swung open from within, and a furious Jas appeared right in front of Irving.
Upon seeing Irving, Jas displayed not only anger but also a hint of confusion on his face. "Do you have sothing important to discuss with ? Why didn't you notify in advance?" Although Jas tried to soften his tone, his previous anger made his words co out sowhat stiff.
Irving didn't pay much mind to Jas's attitude. He simply replied, "I have sothing very important to discuss with you."
Jas glanced back at the others in the conference room. "I'll give you all three more days. If you can't complete the tasks I've assigned within that ti, then you can all get out!" After saying this angrily, Jas's expression finally cald down a bit.
"Alright then, co directly to my office. We can discuss important matters there without any interruptions," Jas said as they made their way to his office.
"I've received so very important information from the Knowledge Fairy. Various powers are becoming increasingly chaotic. The Knowledge Fairy believes this indicates that sothing significant is about to happen," Irving stated seriously. He felt that this matter was indeed of utmost importance.
Jas furrowed his brows and thought for a mont. "Are you sure? Why haven't I felt any increasing chaos among the various powers? The power I possess is the Powers of Order. From my perspective, the Powers of Order haven't beco chaotic at all. In fact, they seem to be easier to control than before."
As he spoke, Jas demonstrated a spell using the Powers of Order he commanded. Irving chose not to argue against him. He rely replied, "This might also be a reflection of the Powers of Order becoming increasingly chaotic."
Jas was puzzled by Irving's statent. However, he quickly grasped the idea. After all, Jas was a smart person; with just a slight nudge from Irving, he could quickly understand.
"So you're saying that the various powers representing chaos and negativity are becoming increasingly chaotic, while those representing order and positivity are becoming more orderly?" Jas asked Irving uncertainly.
Irving nodded. "Exactly. I believe that the various powers are beginning to reflect their true nature. This ans that the Knowledge Fairy's judgnt is likely correct. Only when significant events are about to happen do the various powers reveal their true essence."
Irving's words left Jas feeling very anxious. "What should we do? Shouldn't we take so asures in response?" Although Jas hadn't been particularly anxious before, the more he thought about it, the more anxious he beca.
Irving felt the sa way as Jas.
Irving felt increasingly anxious. More importantly, he couldn't think of any counterasures at all. "I do hope to find a way to respond, but given the current situation, we can only focus on gathering clues. We shouldn't take any rash actions until we have enough information."
Irving's words left Jas feeling helpless. He nodded, acknowledging the point. "Alright, I'll have my subordinates start collecting clues during this ti."
"I hope you don't put too much pressure on them. If so of them have allied with the Night Blades, we could face even bigger problems," Irving cautioned Jas. In Irving's view, Jas was too harsh with his subordinates.
Jas chuckled lightly. "You don't understand! If I want everyone at the Green Ivy Company to follow my orders, I have to appear very aggressive. I can only intimidate them into executing my commands." Read latest chapters at empire
Jas expressed his true feelings. Irving chose not to argue further, recognizing their differing perspectives. He realized he couldn't change Jas's mindset, so he decided to remain silent.
"Alright then. You know the Green Ivy Company better, so your approach may be more reasonable. I need to inform Vicky and Benjamin about this, so I won't disturb you any longer," Irving said before leaving.
As Jas watched Irving's retreating figure, he fell into deep thought. The information Irving had provided was indeed crucial. Jas also recognized that the changes in the various powers could trigger a series of issues.
Quickly, he made a decision and issued new orders. "Everyone must search for information related to the changes in power. Each person must find at least three pieces of information within a week. If anyone fails to collect three pieces, they will face punishnt."
Jas bluntly delivered his new command. He didn't care whether his subordinates could fulfill his new orders or not.
The mbers of the Green Ivy Company who received Jas's new orders were in a state of panic. They felt that this directive was impossible to accomplish since none of them had noticed any changes in power. However, none of them dared to oppose Jas. They could only grit their teeth and carry out his orders. So even began to contemplate whether they should betray Jas under the pressure he exerted.
