The news of what happened in Iova city quickly spread online.
Zen saw the news, and it was as he expected. The plot was progressing faster than in the original novel.
He thought in his mind 'So... it has already happened, I guess it is time for me to also carry out my plans and go to the Outlander continent. That Eliza girl and Edward should have also met up with each other.'
[I'm sure it was the same situation as what I read in that cliche novel. Such a comedic scene I wish I could've seen. It would have been an entertaining play while I bonbons.]
He also thought that he would have a chance to poach the girl when he enters the academy next year. Edward was a very timid and naive person. So he naturally thought that Edward would not progress with the girl too much, but he would still have a chance.
But of course, if they were already together, he would simply use her in order to achieve his goals. Once she's all used up, he will simply throw her away.
It was already ten p.m., and he was about to head off to sleep when he saw this. He stood back up and prepared all the items he needed. Zen decided to head out first thing in the morning.
Outlander continent, this continent was acquired by Astre continent 12 years ago. It is a vast land and consists of sects, barbarians, and devil cults. Different from the usual society of Astre.
This group of powers was weakened because of the war that transpired back then. They were now acting like slaves for the Astre continent.
The only sect left that has been able to maintain its standing on this continent is the Flame Sect. The leader of the sect proposes a contract with Elle Duragny Raverdieu. The contract was that they would become a subsidiary family of the Raverdieu's working for them on this continent.
Elle agreed, as she also needed them to establish Raverdieu's authority. Although it was not needed, it was still a good proposal. Allowing her to not work too hard on it.
Just like Zen, she prefers that others do the work for her. She would just watch from the sidelines as everyone completed the task she assigned to her subordinates. She would only step out if there was an unexpected problem that arose.
Zen does not know about this contract. So he was currently thinking of a plan on how to meet up with that Witch Emperator of Flame. He did know that in the novel, this sect maintained its standing on the Outlander continent. He thought that there should be someone supporting them from behind.
But he did speculate that it might have something to do with his family. The reason for that? Simple, it was just in the entire Astre. Who would be able to intimidate the whole continent into not making a move on this sect? That is right, that is his Raverdieu Family.
Even the Royal Family of Doomthorn would have to discuss this matter with other families if they were to do the same. But the Raverdieu could pretty much do anything they wanted, and no one would dare provoke them.
Zen was thinking of contacting his parents to ask them about it. But he denied this, as this did not really need their interference. He would eventually find out who was supporting them once he arrived at that sect.
He was also hiding from his parents, so he did not contact them about his plan.
Zen decided that he would go straight to the Outlander continent. While he was preparing his stuff, he also made plans for when he finished his business at that place.
He muttered, "Hmmm, I'll go on another sightseeing trip, I guess, I'll need to bring a lot of stuff. I'll go around the world and explore it while I'm out. I would not be back to Z's dwelling for a while." He smiled when he reached the end of his sentence.
Zen was really looking forward to exploring this world. Back in his home world, called Earth, he would also travel the world to get his mind off work. He usually leaves the work to his subordinates, as it is enough to maintain his business in that world. He would then go on many vacations.
Before heading off to sleep, he took out his phone and entered the group chat. This was the group chat where Fiona had added him to.
something.
⋘Group Chat⋙
▼ Zenryxxx : Hey girls, I won't be messaging you all. I'll be busy this next 2 months.
▼ Fiona : Busy with what? You will still have your phone right?
▼ Celestia : What he meant by that was 'I will me to lazy to be messaging you all'
When Zen and Celestia talks to each other. She was able to get the hang of what Zen's personality was like and his hobbies. He was very lazy, carefree, and does not like to do things that requires too much effort.
She was shock at first that he did not pretty much do anything to reach the Advanced Rank. But after she was guided by Zen helping her break through Intermediate. She accepted it that he was just too talented and intellectually competent.
It is not that Zen is omnipotent that he was able to guide her. He just knew what to tell her to do from what he read in the novel.
▼ Fiona : Hmm when you be able to then?
▼ Zenryx : :) I don't know maybe in 2 months time I'll give you all a surprise.
▼ Fiona : Another surprise? Your surprises usually do not have any good thing stored.
▼ Daphne : Right?! Lol he ditched his own birthday to go on vacation hahahahah.
▼ Zenryx : :)
After talking to them for some time he said his goodbyes to closed off the conversation. He turned his phone off and set it at the top of the table that's located in his right side.
