" Their hideout is impossible to find out. Furthermore, many core members have influence throughout the world. As you can see, SV has political advantages and they have relationships with many influencers."
Chris played the video that showed the intel they had on the SV alliance. The leaders and elders fell into silence because SV consisted of not just humans, there were demons, vampires, werewolves, gods, images, spirits, and so on. They weren't united like them due to their interest conflict, but scale and operation-wise wise they were superior to Eden.
" How did this even happen in the first place? Eden constantly suppressed the villains and rehabilitated them into socially responsible people. Although the majority of them are in prison, we keep close eyes on them."
Brian said with a slight anger in his voice. The Round Table sacrificed many staff after the disappearance of Arthur. He thought the supervillains had no leading figures except for a few powerful entities. Their egos were too big to join with others.
" It was bound to happen anyway. Even without Eden, the Avengers and other heroes were threatening."
Hela said coldly, looking at the known members' images. She saw familiar faces among the executives and was furious to see former Asgardians were in the line.
" Do we have to go against them? The world turns into a battlefield once we open fire on them."
Luke was worried about civilians rather than themselves. They were powerful enough to stand against bullets, but a single bullet could mortally wound normal people.
" I agree with him. We just need to collect the books and punish the perpetrators. It is too dangerous to declare war on them now."
Steve said calmly, believing this wouldn't end so easily. Even with Arthur's power or high-leveled heroes' power, the enemies would devastate any cities in this world and there would be casualties in their fight.
" Then it is settled. Find the thieves first and apprehend them. As for the SV alliance, we will chip away their powers one by one since we have no other choice."
Kyle wrapped up the meeting, deciding to go to the mission. He was sure that high leveled mages were behind this scene and he also knew they sacrificed human lives. Thus, his anger was boiling due to his mortal feelings.
Meanwhile in Runeterra
" So, long time no see. As always you look gorgeous, Arthur."
Samira licked her lips, looking at him with a seductive look. She didn't care about two Dianas and Zoe who were glaring at her with different expressions.
" Samira, stop joking with me. You are deliberately causing me trouble right?"
Arthur knitted his eyebrows because he knew this woman damn well. She was a bold and straightforward woman with a sense of humor and fashion.
" Tsk* I wasn't joking though. So, do you need a guide for Nexus Prime?"
She clicked her tongue while scanning his body. The last time he gave her a car which is still going today, so she was expecting a great tip from him.
" We can walk without any problem. Let's go, Art."
Diana grabbed Arthur's arm out of caution. She could tell Samira was after him and unlike other women she was a wild card. There was no way she would allow her ways with her husband. Although she had to admit Arthur was a womanizer due to his looks and power, he was still her husband and father of her daughter.
" Ah, you are protective type, aren't you? I like spicy ones. Maybe we could have quality time."
Samira winked at her which caused her hair to spike her up. Diana quickly walked behind Arthur despite her height. She recognized her as a being that she shouldn't deal with. As for Zoe and Diana, they didn't give a damn. They worked with her before and they knew her behavior.
" Just stop messing around. You have an objective, right? Your eye is giving away."
Arthur narrowed his eyes, guessing her objective. However, he still trusted her since she was his companion before and she was an honest money grabber.
" Ah, you caught me off guard. Indeed, I need you to meet up with a person."
Samira said, tossing a coin.
